To the Farmer
The Alfalfa Meal Mill at Echo, Oregon is
today paying a minimum price of $6 a ton
for alfalfa in stack, the company paying for
hauling.
This year the alfalfa yield one quarter of a
mile from our project netted 8 tons to the
acre, the highest yield on the same land be
ing 10 tons. The cost for producing varies
from 1.25 to 1.50 per ton, giving a net in
come per acre on these figures of 36 to 38.
These facts can be readily verified.
For the Fair month we are giving inter
esting terms which must appeal to you.
Come in and talk it over.

Washington, Kept. 14. Five hun

complete utilization of various kinds
of woods, yet, from one of the sched

commission expects to discover great
waste even In veneer manufacture.
Though the word veneer carries
many meanings, from a glaze ap

man of the world. It Is most com
monly employed as the name fur the
thin slices of wood now extensively
used in the manufacture of all sorts
of articles of Use. such as wood plates,
baskets, and the exterior finish of fur
