the belief, derived from long observa

The Portland Journal of last Sunday
brings the Washington county cow to
the trout in an editorial aa loUow t
Washington county ia faat coming to
b in miniatirro what the Willamette
valley will ultimately bc.as a whole. It
is diliicult to stay the hand of destiny,
'or long 'reverse the order of nature. In
F jtt length the Willamette valley I a
tone peculiarly adapted by climate and
V products to livestock farming and dairy
ting. It take time for a community to
discover it true line of endeavor, but
in Washington county that secret ia rap
idly unfolding. Tho farmer of that
county were paid lust year a half-million
dollars for milk alone. The manu
factured product from the dairy cow
brought into the county a round million
dollar. The condensed milk product,
because it is superior to all others, was
Shipped past the factories of the middle
west states and past the other milk pro
ducing state beyond, and sold In the
eatt for a llguro so much higher that
the Washington county farmers received
3i cents jr 100 pounds more for milk
than did the farmers to the eastward.
This sueriority ofproduct, whether
the result of cliuinte, of feed, or of what
not, It a reality, and it I an asset of on
computed value. It is but partly drawn
npon as yet, U-cause dairying, even in
Washington county Is more a side iisue
tlian the real business on the farm.
That the sumo superiority i true of all
the Willamette region, and that It i a
reiource that time will turn Into an im
mense and most profitable induttry, it
unquestioned.
It utilization in Washington county
ha revolutionized farm condition.
Everywhere in the community there are
sign of thrift. The farm Improvemeatt
are perio.t, with many farm home iop-
puei wun not ami cold water, bath and
outer convenience of urban life. The
fields, the pasture ar.d the very air are
an urn with primarily. The herd and
flock of livestock are sleek, and satUQed
a they feed or loll under the summer
un. In the bank I her is a good bah
nc on the right side for almost every
Household, ami life is easy and home
happy. In short, the whole community
ha it house in cr(ccl order, and it it
largely the handiwork of the Washing
ton connty cow.
The Weather.
During the first five days of the week
light to modcnitely be:ivy rain fell near
ly every day, und tho weather waa
cloudy and cool. Tlie teniieratnres dur
ing the afternoons, on a few days, were
a much as laentv degrees below th
normal. The departure from the nor
mal temperature at night was not so
great, but the nichta a well as the days
average! cooler man usual, liuring a
temporary clearing spell on Friday
morning frost occurred in a few of the
orttitf'astern counties. The last two
days' were warm, sunshiny and very
beneficial. The prevailing winds wer
Southwesterly nd although at time
rather strong they were not damaging.
The lunslune for the entire slat was
only thirty two per cent ol the possible
mount.
Spray Kill Wi
Tk. fnllnin la dinned from the
Technical World and Will be read with
interact bv avert farmer!
Hew to kill standing weed in a field
of grain without injuring the crop i one
ol tb fravet problem that confronts
the agriculturalist of any country, it i
Imnoaaibla to cultivate them not,
nnU. th farmer Lie woe through his
grain Held, pulling up each weed by
bd an Impossible task thy must be
loft to grow with tb grain, drawing in
tb moisture, ipreading rank leave for
th mnllght and extracting nourisu
tuent from tb soil.
Tb most persistent weed occurring
la tb great grata field of th United
BttM are the wild mustard, Canada
thiitl and rag weed. Th wild nius
tard, of which tbr ar over 80 species,
ia considered by farmers th most trou
blesome
The sraia farmer of th northwest
have continual battle with (he wild
muatard. A fw ed will cover an en
tire field in two year if not kept down,
It il impoasibl to eradicate where it has
one taken bold. In some fields where
it ha not rrown too strong, Minnesota
and Dakota farmer spend several davs
with all tb children aud women obtain
able, picking the weed from the fields
during th month of June. It it of no
benefit to turn the ground into meadow
or pasture for the ed will lie dormant
(or year and then when the toil is
plowed will "come up again as great a
pest a ever.
It can now be said with certainty that
ucb a discovery ha been made. The
first successful experiments were made
in June, liKXl, by the agricultural college
of tha University of Wisconsin. The
work has been carried on under the di
rection of Professor K. A. Moore.
It should be recalled that the Univer
sity of Wisconsin has already establish
ed a wide reputation for itself. The
Babcock milk test, which ha saved
mor to tb farmer of Wisconsin than
tb cost of tb whole university from it
foundation to th preteut time, result
ed from experiment at the Wisconsin
agriculturalcollege. Th formaldehyde
treatment for tmut in grain it alto one
of the successful discoveries of the same
institution. Thi discovery of a practi
cal method of eradicating weed will be
of at least twice th value of either of
the.
. THE SOLCTIOV.
Tb experiments carried on consist in
praying tb field with a 10 per cent so
lution of iron tulphate. The idea of
controlling wild mustard by this meth
od was received last year at the univer-
ty experiment station. The work was
based on information derived from tier
many, where experiments had been
tried on mustard. Plan are to make
teat on tb university farm a soon as
the wild mustard appeared.'
The Urn for making the test ia of ex
treme importance. The condition ol
the weathee is a factor to be considered.
The day must be bright and sunshiny.
There must be no wind and th dew
should hav evaporated. If rain follows
the spraying within a few hours the so.
lution will be weakened, and the mus
tard will not be successfully exterminat
ed. If rain follows 16 hours after the
tpraving the extermination will be quite
perfect. Ia case of rain two hours after,
fifty per cent of the mustard will live to
produce teed
Two day after th spraying all that
can be found of the mustard is a black
powder where the plant stood. Very
little damage Is done to the grain crop
by driving over it at thi time of the
year. In the test made, atrip were
left unsprayed in the center of the grain
field to prove the effectiveness of the
experiment. After two days the strip
stood out distinct with it yellow blos
som. her th spraying wat done
not a live plant could be found.
Th epraying machln used for the
test bad the appearance of a chemical
fire engine, but for the fact tha! the
larger copper tank which hold 75 gal-
ion ol solution is mounted on a two
wheeled cart and is drawn by one horse.
Pipe filled with numerous bole extend
like arm 10 feet from each side of the
machine. A fog-like spray is spread ov
er th fisld from these pipes.

Last Sunday afternoon a laro crowd
witnessed the first real ball giime of the
season on tho home ground. The Ver
boort nine, which has been cleaning up
everything in the way of ball players up
their way, gave our home boys a mighty
close rub. For the first three Imiiiitt it
looked as if it were to lie oilo of those
games often seen on the Portland dia
mond, where neither aide could uiske a
t illy, and the air was full of gooso etfirp.
Finally the visitors mannired to pull
in a run, In the first ol the fourth, which
waa immediately discounted by the
local twirlcr. Downs and Siesrest did
good batting work, Downs fanning out
18 men and Siegrest put out one on a
foul and another on the home plate.
