That James J. Hill Is the controll ing spirit behind the Oregon Trunk railway, which Is to penetrate cn trnl and eastern Oregon by way of the Deschutes valley, Is the firm con viction of a number of Portland's leading bankers and capitalists, says the Oregon Dally Journal. One of the most prominent men In the commercial life of the city, who b at the head of one of tne largest exporting concerns on the coast, and who has been closely connected with the Hill Interests since that system Just Invaded Portland territory, com mented on the situation today as follows: 'There Is no doubt In my mind that the Oregon Trunk, or Deschutes Valley railroad was projected by the Hill system, and will become an Or- egon feeder of the north bank line. "I have known for some time that Mr. HUl was seriously considering In. vadlng Harrlman's eastern Oregon preserves, and I believe that the or ganization of the Oregon Trunk rail way Is the first move by Hill in the Titanic struggle that Is sure to ensue for a division of the eastern Oregon freight traffic. "The enormous acreage of arid land soon to be brought under Irri gation In eastern Oregon and Wash Ington, and the resulting Increase in the volume of freight to be handled lis that district is certain to stimu late activity In railroad building throughout the Inland empire. "R will be recalled that Just three year ago James J. Hill was in Port land and made the first public an nouncement of his intention to build road down the north bank of the Columbia. At. that time Mr. HtU saia that upon the completion of the north bank road he might turo his attention to the development of east orn Oregon by means of building feeders for his new Spokane-Portland line. The fact that N. W. Bethel, locat ing engineer for the Hill system, has recently been at The Dalles, he northern terminus of the Oregon Trunk roand, and that a large sur veying party Is working south through the Deschutes valley, points strongly to the conclusion that the Hill peoplo are making preparations to begin the actual construction of a railway through central Oregon. EAST WILL, BE MADE BT THE THIS SEASON AS FOLLOWS: ROUND TRIP TO Chicago St. Louis -St. Paul Omaha -Kansas City DIRECT $72.50 67.50 63.15 60.00 60.00 and Spltzenberg are the leading va rletles. The total number of apple trees from one to 25 'years of age was 349, 43B last year. Of these Yellow Newtowns lead with 173,684 trees, followed by Spltzenbergs with 150, 616. The balance Is made up of some 20 other varieties. Of pear trees there are 9152; cher ry trees 4627; peach trees ' 7180. Eighty-two per cent of the apple trees have been set out during the past six years. Strawberries Strawberries Is the pioneer crop of Hood River. They are planted extensively In the young orchards where they are allowed to remain until the trees come into bearing and furnish a much needed Income while the orchard la growing up and producing only expense bills. The only berry grown Is the Clam Seedling, which Is a remarkably good shipper, selling the past season (1907) as high as 83.35 a crate. It Is a light bearer, 175 crates being considered a good crop. The total acreage In strawberries at Hood River is 756. Of this 632 acres are grown In orchards. As a result of this orchard survey the author of the bulletin draws a few conclusions, among which may be mentioned the following: From present indications, the Yel low Newtown and Spltzenberg will continue to be the leading varieties of apples grown; Irrigation, which Is bound to be come a factor in the development of the country must be practiced with care. Some growers are using It In such a way that the tree and fruit are likely to be Injured. An average of one or two Irrigations will be all that will be needed on an average in a bearing oichard. " The problem Is to use as little water as possible. Something must be done before long to furnish the soils with humus and plant food. Cover crops are one of the best agencies to bring about these results. More care should be used in the distances and systems In planting orchards. In most of the young orchards windbreaks could be used to advan tage. As to pruning, the majority of growers do not head the trees back severely enough during the first few years of their growth. Methods of harvesting and packing are high class, but will probably be still further improved by the building of more packing houses.

L. Lewis and R. W. Allen. Frnm this bulletin, which may be liml frne on nnnllcatlon to the ex perlment station at Corvallls, the fol lowing facts are gleaned: In the Hood River district the or hards average 16 acres in also. The net returns per acre are about $500, and as high as $1800 per acre have been realized. Hood River valley lies between two ranges of high hills or mountains, open to the north where the Columbia marks its boundary.. There are three natural divisions of the district, namely, the west side, or that part lying between the Hood river and the mountains to the west, the east side, lying east of the river and extending southward to a distance of about 10 miles from the Columbia; and south of these extending for a distance of 10 or 12 miles Is the upper valley constituting the third division. The elevation of the orchards near est the river is about 200 feet. In the main valley the altitude averages about 600 feet. The Willow flat dis trict averages 1210 feet, and the mid dle valley and Mount Hood districts range from 1350 to 2000 feet The whole valley has an east or west slope, and the orchards are lo cated with a good exposure as to light and air drainage. In the Hood river valley six dis tinct soils are found, but at Mosler and The Dalles the orchards are most ly of two kinds of soil. The bulletin irivcK thn chemical analysis of the soils of the different districts. The analyses don't show a rich soli. So far as chemistry can tell us, the soils are not rich. The nitrogen Is much below the average and the phosphoric acid runs low. The leading fruit of Hood River Is the apple, and the Yellow Newtown MEXICAN SUGAR GROWING. Excellent Natural Conditions Are Aided by Cheap Labor. Consul P. Merrill Griffith, of Tarn- plco, submits the following report on land values in Mexico, and the cost of- planting, cultivating and harvesting the cane crop: One of the leading Industries ot Mexico and one that has advances most rapidly during the last five years, through the introduction of Im proved agricultural and milling ma chinery and the adoption of more sci entific methods In the cultivation of the cane. Is the production of sugar. There is an excellent demand in Mexico for all sugar produced, and all grades find a ready sale at good prices. A few years ago the demand among the Mexicans" of the middle and lower classes was for brown su gar exclusively; now they demand also granulated or white sugar manufac tured into pllons. The amount of sugar produced de ponds upon the character of the soli and the location of the land. In this section the yield averages from 25 to 40 tons of cane to the acre. The sac. charlne matter from this quantity ot cane amounts to about 65 per cent of the weight, and the quantity ot white centrifugal sugar produced from 7Vi to 10 per cent, or from 130 t. 150 pounds" of sugar to he ton. The cano raised In most sections of the United States has a higher baume, usually running from 9 to IB, and the sucrose contents in prqor- tion. The stalks grow from 13 to 15 feet high, have from 32 to 36 Joints, and often measure from 7 to 8 Inches In clrcumferance at the bottom. It has been stated by persons ot practical experience that sugar can be produced here for less than 1 cent gold per pound, which enables it to compete successfully in almost any market of the world.
