BAKER COUNTY FARMERS
PASS UP GOOD THING
From Baker City, Democrat.
For 49 hogs yesterday, weighing
lot over 200 pounds each, the Bak
ir Packing company paid an Eagle
falley farmer 1755.
There is nothing so remarkable
About the fact itself, but it does in
licate the high prices obtaining, ant'
.he scarcity; of Baker county porkers
Work it out mathematically and i'
is almost impossible to fond a reas
on for such scarcity, for the Bakei
valley should be one of the best hot
district in Oregon.
Tet on the other hand the pack
ing company hag purchased every
Available porker in the county foi
the next month and still has a great
scarcity.
Where a year ago the company
had 18.000 pounds of lard. yeUer
day there was only 600 pounds li
the, shops. They cannot supply Bak
er county's needs with Baker's pork
ers npt nearly j
Tet conditions here are almost
ideal for hog raising!
By running the shoats on alfalfa
until they reach 150 pounds in weight
and then turning them into tha fat
tening pens on a ration of wheat, ac
cording to the Oregon Agricultural
Experiment Staticn, the farmers can
put on the firit 150 pounds of
weight at t cents per pound, and
can add the next 100 so that the
wheat fed will pay them in pork
we-ght at the rate of 1 1.50 per
bushel.
Under such conditions there axe
scores of ranchers in Baker county
most adroiiaWy fitted to raise the
plebeian hog with great profit far
greater than they are getting from
their alfalfa and grain under their
present system of marketing their
crops as crops yet for some reason
there are very few who will pay any
attention to that phase of their
basis ess.
constitatljBal convention would
assemble solely for the purpose of

LAND
All over the Northwest are talking of Wal
lowa Count' and the wonderfully fertile lands
here that can be bought cheaper than similar
land anywhere in the Inland Empire. There
is no fairer land in all the Inter-Mountain
region and'no section with richer and more
varied resources. Even-thing is here. Fertile
land for grain, hay, sugar beets, vegetables,
fruit; abundance of water, splendid climate,
greatest body of timber in Eastern Oregon, un
rivaled winter and summer range, great stock
country and the mountains- full of minerals.
Wallowa County has
Just Begun to Grow
Enterprise is the county seat, largest town
and commercial capital of all these resources.
As grows the county, so will Enterprise grow.
It is growing now, rapidly and substantially.

No Morals in Dreamland.
If. as many writers have suggested.
It is the soul itself that guides the Im

plain the fact that in this chaos of

when dreaming we commit act for
which we should weep tears of blood
