The exhibit does not end, how
ever, with disclosing the damage
to forests in the past, or even
with prescribing preventives for
the future, but it also shows how
the naturally treeless plains of
the Middle West are capable, un
der correct methods of tree plant
ing, of supporting forest growth,
and how fire-swept and denuded
mountain slopes of the East and
West can be reclaimed to forest

On his return to this city from
Portland, where he had been a
delegate to the Trans-Mississippi
Commercial Congress, S. L,.
Kline reported a splendid series
of sessions. Many matters of
importance were -reviewed and
discussed by able men. He said
that he regretted that larger dele
gations from our sister cities, as
well as our own, were not in at
tendance at this congress. . Dele
gates should have gone there and
camped, for it was worth while.
Among other items considered
was the matter of deepening the
channel on the Columbia bar and
in the river itself, as well as the
Willamette so far up as Portland
from a depth of 23 to 32 . feet.
Our delegate says this was all
very well, but no mention what
ever was made of conditions on
the Upper Willamette. He wants
to know what benefit a deeper
channel is going to prove if no
attention is paid to the matter. of
transporting freight from interior
regions to Portland. If nothing
is done in tht interest o an open
river the year around on the Up
per Willamette the railroad com
pany holds our trade in its own
hand and may charge about what
it sees fit. Many products would
hnd a market in Portland on a
lower freight rats that at present
never leave the farm. Portland
needs all of this 11 she is ever to
become a great city and it is her
duty to give aid toward improv
ing the Willamette somewhat be
yond the head . of tide. Boats
plying to this city or above the
vear around would result in a
freight rate that would land
thousands of tons of produce in
Portland, annuallv tnat never
leave the place of production as
the matter now stands. River
transportation is a great freight
rate equalizer.
Mr. Kline says that the cities
of Independence, "Albany, Eu
gene and Corvallis - should ap
point cornmittes and pas resolu
tions in this matter. If all act in
harsony and pull strongly to:
gether something will come our
wav of there will be the deuce to

R. M. WADE & CO., Agts., Corvallis,
Notwithstanding the fact that Benton
is the smallest county .in the state and
has the smallest space allotted her cf
any county, she has an exhibit that
would be a credit to a 'county twice as
large. The display in variety and the
manner of arrangement would - be
credit to any district. Uoacerniug our
exhibit the Telegram of Friday has the
following to say :
Benton county is one of the most de
velope 1 in the state and whatever "will
grow anywnere in Uregon will grow
toere. Especially -b it rich in its pro
ducts of fruit and grain and in these
things the fertility of the soil is well
shown by the specimens exhibited. In
stead of displaying in pyramids, whei
only a small part of the exhibit can be
seen at once, and hampered by la;k of
wall space, Sydney Trask. the young
man in charge, has hit upon the novel
expedient of erecting panels in diffirent
places around the booth, on which the
various products are shown.' " These
panels are very Beat in appeal ance, and
are faced in black vJ.vet. More than 75
different varieties of wheat are display
ed on tlfese panels and the stalks are
arranged in scroll work on their tops,
and around the walls. .u
Kot only wheat, but numerous other
grains are raised in the county, and dis
played on the panels. There are 12 dif
ferent kinds of barley, ten or a dozen of
oats, and nearly 75 species of good pas
ture grasses. Many of these are remark
ably long and luxuriant, and one sample
of vetch is I2 feet in length. As a -nat
ural result of the great wheat crops rais
ed, federal flouring mills have followed,
and three of these have sent samples of
t.ieir flour for exhibition.
Great quantities of fruit are also sho n
and a shelf in oneZend of the booth ie
covered with choice specimens of pears,
peaches, plums and others, all of the
kind that take prizes. Drying prunes
has become a great iudustry in the coun
ty, aud many carloads are annul ly ship
ped to other places. In vegetables, !ike-
lee, the county is rich, and fine pota
toes taken from average yieMs are of good
size and sound throughout.
Angora goat rmung lias rejectlv oe-
come extremely . popular oa arx-ount of
the fine quati'y of their woil, and Bs;i-
ton conaty is admirably suited to theii
culture. TI11 mohair from that pla-
commands the highest prices, and that
which is tn (xhibition is of very fine,
silky texture. Sheep's wool is not for
gotten and many samples of it are in a
grass ease with the mohair.
Much of the success of the county
agriculturally is due to the presence of
the Srnte Ag-lm'tnia! Coliega at Cor
val'is. where a great amount of experi
menting is done for the benefit of the
students, and the results communicated
to the farmers free of charge. The
Governmeat also conducts an experiment
station there, which is far-reaching in its
benefits.
