Trie largest considerable of tide land diked in one body in Ibis county, says the Northwest Farmer and Dairyman, is that of 300 acres belonging to D. K. and P, C. "Warren, on tho north side of tho Skipanon. Tho Warrens havo also 400 acres of tide land partly diked on tho samo stream. Messrs. Kinney and Loin enweber of Astoria, Hiram Gray of Skip anon, and John Adair, owning land ad joining theso 400 acres, aro to construct additional dike3 connecting with that already constructed, enclosing in tho ag gregate about two thousand acres. The dike enclosiug the first 300 acres, built five years ago, wasj given about ten foot base, five feet in bight, and two feet in width at top. That to enclose tho"403 acre tract has fourteen foot base, five feet in hight and five feet in width at top. Tho mannor of building it was to plow nine or ten furrows on each side of an eighteen foot strip left as base. Tho sods of turf from tho furrows were then cut into convenient lengths for handling, and were piled up along on tho center strip of eighteen feet, leaving a shoulder strip or piece two feet in width on each side of the dike from its base. Addi tional turf and soil were then taken from the spaco whero tho ground was plowed, and added to tho dike until it reached proper size. The cost of build ing dike (i1) proves sufficiently firm to permit plowing, as in this case, greatly cheapens tho cost of diking. That part of tho 300 acres diked several years ago, is proving more productive every year it is cultivated. Tho different varieties of vegetables and tamo grasses do well on this land. Tho finest lot of several acres of ruta bagas wo havo seen this year are ou this reclaimed tido laud. Tho yield it is thought will bo larger than "that of last season, when it was 35 tons per acre Wo are informed by Mr. Warren that this season he cut twelve largo loads of timothy and clover hay fully a ton to the load, from two acres of this land. From 110 acres in meadow fully 40 tons of hav were cut. Twenty acres did not yield over 2 tons per acre, leaving 90 acres xo proauco oju ujus, ur ueariy auiij. tons per acre. D. K. Warren is building a fine country residence, costing several thousand dollars. The barn on tho place is ono of the largest in Oregon, its di mensions being BOx 10 feet ground plan. It is threo stories in hight, tho distance from the eaves to the ground being not less than 34 feet. One end of tho build ing rests against a steep bank, so that a loaded wagon can bo easily driven into tho third story. Tho barn floor in the upper story is 21x170 feet, with n twenty foot spaco in the clear between it. anu tho roof. A portion of tho two lower stories is fitted up with enough single stalls to stall feed 17G head of cattle. This fine structure was built under tho supervision of H. Brallier. Daring the course of the year Mr. Warren stall feeds several hundred head of cattle, and sells them wholesale in tho Astoria market. On the Dement farm located on tho Lewis and Clarke river, seventy-five acres of tido land were reclaimed by diking two and one-half years ago. Part of the land was left in wild grass. During the spring following tho diking saveral acres were burned over, and ou still another portion tho grass was mowed and re moved, and on tho ground thus prepared timothy seed was sowed. On tho por tion burned over tho timothy grew tho best. Tho timothy seems to be disap- Ejaring, redtop coming in its place, ast year tho old wild grass on another portion ot tno reciaimcu iana was uurneu on, ana tue ianu seeueu wuu a mixture of red clover, white clover and orchard grass, and a good sou obtained. A lew acres were plowed last year, and again this season, and put in rye and barley, which are doing well. C. S. Dow, in charge of tho place says that some trouble is experienced from water mice and rauskrats working in tho dyke. Crawfish occasionally do slight damage. There are fifty head of cows, besides sev eral ueau oi oiuer sidck on ius piace. Mr. Dement has purchased from T. E. Eldowney. of Hillsboro, a young thor ough bred Short-horn bull, with a view to improvo his dairy stock. W. J. lngalls recently unisueu diking sixty-five acres, finishing last March. A. portion or iuo uue-iuuu rass uecuiu ing dry in a few days after closing the dike, it was burned off, and timothy and red and white clover seed sowed on tho ground. Tho tamo grass started well, but no stock having been kept on the land, tho wild grass smothered much of it out. Tamo grass appears to do better ! in such a case if cattle are allowed to run on tho nowly diked land. 11. 15. Cole also has reclaimed a small piece of tide-land, adjoining that of Mr. Brower. On eleven acres of reclaimed tide-land, verv soft of soil and covered with a growth of spruce and wild crab applo before being diked and cleared, Albert Aylmore keeps eleven head of cows and large cattle all in fino condition. Two or throe more head of stock could ba put on this pasture to good advantage, so as to prevent too rank a growth, which now holds and interferes with tho butter yield from his cows. J. Gibson owns twenty acres of choice tide-land protected by continuance of dike enclosing Alymore's land. Tho larcest rart of the twenty acres is nicely sot in rod-top, clover, timothy, velvet and orchard grass. The tamo grass was given a start simply by sowing the seed, alter burning ou ino wua nae grass. A. E. Turlay hassome good tide land not yet diked. Mr. T. is logging, and with tho help of a hired man and a large yoke of oxen, each ox weighing about 160D pounds, has put in thi3 season, up to Aug. 1st, not less than 200,000 feet. Somo of tho logs, put in on a good grade and short haul, measure over four feet in diameter and are thirty-two feet in length not a bad load for a single yoke of oxen. Last winter and sprinc, W. J. lngalls diked seventy acres of tide land, partly covered with a growth of brush and spruce growth. Messrs. P. B. Heckard and W. w. True havo jointly diked thirty-five acres brush tido land. It was first diked two years ago, but tho diko gave way in a slough. Jjast season me uamugo was re paired, and last spring Heckard burned pff the rushes and old grass and sowed two hundred pounds of timothy and thirty-two pounds of clover seed, from which a good start of grass ha3 como. Mr. True seeded hi9 portion of tho land to timothy, orchard gras3, wh'te audal sike clover, and a good stand obtained, especially of alsike, which latter is desir able not only on account of the cattle, but of bees also, of which theso gentle men have each several swarms. m D. J. lngalls, owner of some nno bot tom grass lands above tido water, says that on his white and alsiko cloyer, most ly the former, ho keeps on an averago more than a cow and a half to each acre of pasture. On n butter test of twelve cows for seven days in June, he made one hundred and twenty-nino pounds of butter, and from fourteen cows in seven 1 J3 JIMMM T..1. lt mniA fnn TlTinflfT.ll I and forty-eight pounds of butter. j C.S. Hardor.a near neighbor oi-ui-galls, complains that other pasture grasses on his place- the same as on Mr. lngalls' land are smothered out by tho wliito clover. Tho whito clovor is too prevalent to the exclusion of other grass es, and causes loss of stock from bloat. In tho vicinity of Young's bay and river, a large extent of land has been re claimed by diking. J. F. Nowlen has diked eighty acres, C. Hess seventy-five acre3, Morey fc Co., ono hundred acres, E. C. Jeffera, sixty acres, and is diking one hundred acres moro; H. Harrison eighty acres. Messrs. J. C.Nnrnberg andF. Barloldes diked last season soventy-fivo and fifty acres respectively, greatly improving the land. They aro making preparations to break a considerable portion of this land during the coming fall and winter, and put it in oats next spring. The ob ject is to get tho land level and smooth, and in better condition for the growth of tame grasses. A. H. Sales recently finished diking a small body of tido land. A part of tho twenty fivo acres reclaimed by Mr. Sales two years ago is now in a fair state, but will bo greatly improved by breaking and cultivating. The tide lands of Clatsop aro rapidly becoming a source of great agricultural wealth to tho county. PERSONAL. D. P. Thompson is in tho city. C. W. Fulton went over to the Seaside yesterday. Lieut. L.
