E. 17. S. PRATT, Jeiwete and Optician
W. H. Weeks of La Grande,
who visited Corvallis friends last
week and returned home Friday,
is an OAC. graduate who is mak
ing practical and profitable use
of the education acquired at the
Agricultural College. , He is m
teiested in dairying, having been
connected with the Blue Moun
tain Creamery Company of La
Grande for the past year. He
says:
"There is a great future for
the dairying business in Eastern
Oregon, and much of that coun
try is like Western Oragon, nat
urally adapted to the business
which I represent and have made
my life work. I took a course
at the State Agricultural College,
and our company is handling five
plauts. Our head office is at La
Grande, and we are operating at
Pendleton, Union, Wallowa a'nd
Enterprise. Some months in the
year we pay out $7000 to $8000
to the farmers, and can sell all
that we make at gcod prices.
Wallowa county is especially
adapted to dairying, as it is a
natural alfalfa country, and has
plenty cf water. The same is
true of parts of Baker, Union and
Umatilla. Two of the largcs
producers of da rv products are
Walter Pierce and Judge Hailey,
of Pendleton. "Ti e Grand Ronde
country is coming 10 the tro t
very fast. There is a great fui
ure fo:. dairying in Oregon, anr
I would advise any .young -mat
who has a tasta in that directio
to. get a firsf-classv scientific - and
commercial equipment, and tKterr
are plenty of positions waiting
for him."
Burglars Abroad.
Burglars were abroad in Cor
vallis Friday afternoon and the
residence of James Berry was ran
sacked from one end to the other.
The affair happened about 4:
p. vs: while Mrs. Berry wss away
from home.- On leaving the
house she did not lock the doors,
and upon returning the front door
stood ajar. Entering the dwel
ling, she found that everything
had been tborougly over-hauled
in the hope of finding valuables,
but as vet nothing has been miss
ed. l5resser drawers were pulled
out and the contents tumbled out
on the floor, the beds' were torn
up and the mattresses turned
back, showing that the prowler
had searched carefully in every
place where money is- generally
supposed to be hidden, and trunks
had also been turned upside down
in the hunt for plunder. "
The officers visited' the place
and made a careful investigation,
and 'as there is a strong clue as to
who did the work, it is very pro
bable that the guilty one may
meet his just desstrts.
