There are thousands of tons of al falfa going to waste In the valley and we do not leilize It. Alfalfa ed to animals Is largely wasted un ess ground to a meil. A mill that vill grind twenty to.is a day would je soon running to Its full capacity md then be behind with its 6rder3. ho meal is the best hog fattening ;tuff known, and by many practical nen estimated to be equal to corn in3xl poind f:r ;o n;l.

A jonipany can be organized and our ilfalfa which is the equal of any in he state given additional value as i food product. To grind alfa'.fa requires consid srable power, but we have plenty of water power, and we should utilize t to manufacture oar own products. In California mills with capacity of i hundred tons a day are running nost of the year grinding alfalfa in to a fattening aid leading bulk that jieates a market for the alfalfa of the farmer and enables the fatten ng time of the stock raiser to be shortened considerably. The estab lishment of lar.e packing houses In Portland Is going to make an enor mous demand for Wallowa county liogs, and an al'afa meal mill would iiog to take hi side-door-pullinan trip jnable the gentle mortgage-raising to Portland much sooner than here tofore. We can put up U19 mill with local capital, run it with our mountain water and market it all at home, fed to our she3p, hogs, cattle and horses. Another Big Resource. " A La . Grande marble dealer re ceived a car loal of marble and gran ite, Wednesday, says the Star, to taling In weight 44,000 pounds. The marble came from Proctor, and the granite from Barre, Vermont. The marble of Wallowa county is thought to be the best in the world, but it has not been tested and dem onstrated. We should endeavor to obtain samples for exhibition In En terprise as well as at the Seattle fair, and then send representatives to Vermont and endeavor to inter eat practical qua-rymen in the de velopment of what many think to be the greatest natural resources of the county.
