U n d ertakers
Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Jones o f
Portland were guests at the A. 0.
Whitcomb ranch in Garfield over
Labor I)ay.
Mr. Jones and Mr.
Whitcomb are old time railroad
friends, having been together in
the employ o f the C. B. & Q. Ry.,
for many years prior to Mr. Whit­
comb’s moving here.
Contractors W. H. Young and
Harvey Mattoon, who were a-
warded the contract to rebuild
about one third o f the Trachsel
cut-off road, have already finish­
ed the clearing and are now
ready to begin the grading.
The contractors are trying to
obtain a new survey o f that part
o f the road from the end o f their
work through to the Spring a ater
Hill road, as they claim future
work will be greatly expedited if
the curves near Trachsel’s house
are eliminated.
5600 lbs. Per Acre
John Marchbank o f Estacada,
who is one of the best gardeners
in this territory has this year pro­
duced 1400th of garlic on one
quarter acre o f his place.
This
product is now quoted at 6c per
pound, but last year at this time
was worth triple that amount.
Joe Nicholson of Garfield is en­
thusiastic over his newest crop,
being Soudan grass, o f which he
has a small experimental piece,
Joe figures that his present show­
ing will average a yield of six
tons to the acre. This grass is
admirably adapted for fodder and
in Texas, where the crop is more
generally grown, it yields three
ci ttings per acre of from 9 to
15 tons.

in which will be shown a display of tne
land products grown in C LACKAM AS
COUNTY, along the Estacada inter-
urban line.
T h e company will spare no expense
to make this exhibit of value to this
district, with an agricultural display,
supplemented by a monstrous map of
the country tributary to the Estacada
line, with photographs and other con­
cise information.
We ask the help acd co-operation of
every resident o f this section.
Sort out
a display o f your best agricultural prod­

produce will be needed.
If you will help make this exhibit a
success, save up your prize products
now and feel free to offer suggestions.
