The Oregon Daily Journal says of
the vigorous campaign for better
farming methods and increased pro
duction started by the O. R. & N. com
pany in eastern Oregon:
A 10-year campaign has been enter
ed upon by the O. R. & X. company
by which it is declared that the pro
ductiveness of eastern Oregon and the
inland empire can be trebled and live
stock grazing converted Into a fat
stock industry on an enormous scale.
It is declared that Oregon can be add
ed to the corn belt, and will success
fully produce the cereal that is the
staple stock fattener of the middle
west.
The complete success of the O. R. &
X. company's preliminary campaign
for diversified farming in the terri
tory tributary to its lines has decided
the company to continue the work.
Other demonstration trains will be
run in the future, and the most ad
vanced and scientific Ideas will be ap
plied to the movement.
Develop Livestock Industry.
"Vt'e believe that as to agricultural
products the map of eastern Oregon
and Washington will be made over
during the next few years, as a result
of the work that we have undertaken
said R. B. Miller, general freight
agent.
"It is possible to put eastern Oregon
that Orego nwill produce corn and va-
that Oregon wll lproduce corn and va
rious other crops in great abundance,
and that the livestock proportions, by
following out the lines of diversified
farming advocated by the Oregon Ag
ricultural experiment station.
"Where vast wheat farms now oc
cupy the territory, and one-half of
these lands are idle every alternate
year, general farm' products can be
raised and the lands used every year
with actual benefit to every acre so
used. The result will be that while
wheat raising will continue to be
enormously successful, other crops
will come in for their share of atten
tion, as In the states of the middle
west, and there will be plenty of all
kinds of feed for livestock.
"Another thing It will be found
that wheat fed to pigs will be highly
profitable, and will produce the finest
flavored pork in the world. There
can be vast crops of field peas and
clover produced every other year on
the wheat lands, and with corn as an
important crop the eastern part of
Oregon can be converted successfully
to the livestock business on a large
scale."
Shipping Hogs From the Kant,
It Is said the packing houses at
present in the Pacific northwest are
importing a large majority of their
hogs from the middle west, and that
these hogs can be with profit produc
ed in Oregon. The packing house
at Walla Walla, for example, secures
only 15 per cent of its hogs from' the
eastern Washington region, and ships
most of Its raw material from the
east. The big packers are building
the Pacific coast's greatest packing
center at Portland, and will require a
vast number of hogs, cattle and sheep.
The regions east of the Cascades must
turn to the livestock business If these
packing houses are to be supplied
with sufficient livestock to keep them
going.
ine aeciarauon tjr so eminent a
traffic authority as R. B. Miller that
eastern Oregon can be made a part of
the American corn belt will occasion
'Considerable surprise among old
fashioned farmers. Mr. Miller is in
deadly earnest in his statement, and
means to demonstrate Its practicability
during the next few years. The O. R.
Sc. N. company is already planning a
campaign for next fall. It will Im
prove Its program for demonstration
trains, carrying lecturers and equip
ment for slio.vliig the farmers the
most successful methods of diversi
fied farming.
Time for Questions.
In the recent demonstrations the
train was permitted to stop only one
hour at each point. Next fall the
trains will make two-hour stops at
each point, and allow time for ques
tions and discussions by the assembled
farmers. The hearty co-operation of
the professors from the Oregon Agri
cultural college has been assured and
the company will not spare money nor
effort to accomplish a complete re
versal of present day farm methods
in the Inland empire. It is believed
that Oregon cannot only be made to
maintain Its preeminence as a wheat
producing empire, but it can make a
great success of diversified farming.
Wheat farming on a large scale In
eastern Oregon, while very successful,
has had its serious drawbacks. The
farms are so large and the, country so
sparsely populated that the problem
of securing harvest hands has been
a hard one. The new era Is expected
to usher In a change that will Im
prove conditions.
When It Is demonstrated that every
acre of a 500-acre farm can be used
every year, and its productive capac
ity more than doubled, the farmer
will find that he has all he can do to
farm one-half of that acreage. The
lands will rise In value and he will
sell off lands for smaller farms, and
Increase the number of farmers in
the country. The result will be a vast
ly greater aggregate crop product.
There will be more help In harvest
time, because the farmers will seej
them going about as Is done In the (
middle west farming regions, helping
each other with teams and men to
garner the crops.
AI1rewl 300 Fanners.
On the trip made by the O. R. & N'
demonstration train 18 stops were
made, and It is estimated that the
lecturers were heard by more than
2000 actual farmers, not counting wo
men and children. At many places
the schools were dismissed and the
children were brought by their teach
ers to hear the lectures. At Weston
the normal schood attended in a body,
At every point crowds of farmers
were waiting the. arrival of the train,
They gave earnest attention to the
lecturers and showed every evidence
of being deeply interested In the doc
trines advocated. There was no dis
position shown to discredit the im
porfance of the movement, but on the
contrary the attitude of the farmers

run for it.
It neded two jumps to cross, but the
machine made only one, und settled

Four horses were secured to tow the

Backache and kidney ache are twin

You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid of the bach

If the kidneys are well and strong,
the rest of the system is pretty sure
to be In vigorous health.
Doan's Kidney Pills make strong,
healthy kidneys.
B. Logadon, living at 1223 Y street,
T.a Grande, Ore., says: "I have been
subject to attacks of kidney troubl
and backache for four or five years.
The trouble was always severe and
became more frequent as time went
on, I had pains In my back, head
aches nnd the secretions from my
kidneys caused me to arise many
times during the night. I had heard
so much about Donn's Kidney Pills
that I decided to try them and pro
cured a box. I took them but a short
time when the pains disappeared and
my kidneys were restored to their
former good health. I am glad to

the grounds that the system in this

The raise has been effective since
the latter part of March and patrons

rate of BO cents.
The Independent Telephone people
It Is authoritatively stated, were ap

similar raise In accordance with the
raise that .was made by the Bell Tele

stating that they were making enough

It. II. Gerry, Jr., manager of the
Helena Power Transmission company,
has announced that material has been
ordered for the construction of the
second largest dam In the world,
says a Helena dispatch. This will be
known as the third dam on the Mis
souri river, thirty miles from Helena,
When completed, It will not only irri
gate thousands of acres of land in
this section, but will furnish power
for plants In Helena, Butte and Ana
conda. By July 1 more than COO men
will be employed on the construction
work.
The immensity of the undertaking
Is seen by the fact that 123,000 bar
rels of cement will be used. Loaded
on cars, this would compose a train
nine miles long. One thousand tons
of steel will also be used. The pro
ject Is backed by Former Governor
Samuel T. Hauser and New York capitalists.
