Tho eommunl tics of Central Orefron will take their share of the work and of the expense. They are unable to con duct it alone but they are anxious to co-opcrnte. Why not devote just ten per cent, say, of the enor mous fund annually spent in ndver t3lnjr, to helping the people that have come to make Rood? Such an expenditure will reap a Diamond.

As an added induce-1 ment all trans-continental lines' maintain sjiecial "tourist rates" during certain months. In brief, a vast fortune is expended to pry. easterners from their homes and to transplant them to Oregon. Well and good. Oregon, and! Central Oregon, has in store for these immigrants wonderful oppor tunities, and it is right that they should be told of them. Today, tho 2 1st of June, is tho longest day or the shortest yenrj that Central Oregon has ex-j pefienced. ATHLETIC DEVOTIONS, Gymnaitlo Exarctaai That Imprtnad th. Kurdlah Villager.

But wouldn't it be mighty good busi nessjust a matter of dollars and cents to you, gentlemen of the railroads if a few of these thous ands of dollars that arc spread broidast in publicity work were used to .help the people after you have brought them westward? You wont tonnage. The quickest way to get it u to help the newcomers to develop their lands. The quick est, easiest and best way .to accom plish this,, the sanest, surest andJ fairost method of reducing to the minimum the number of failures, to hasten the production of profi table crops and the resultant pros perity for you and for the settler, is to teach the newcomers,. How? iiy" the establishment and main tenance of experiment farms and W)ll analysis stations. President Grav of the Hill lines recently discussed the advisability of inaugurating fyil analysis stations. Let us hope Mr. Gray will put his, idea into effect, and speedily. Krom St. Paul at various timoa have emamted intimations that Central Oregon was to receive the same sort of help in the way of experiment farms as that which it is understood has been so successful in developing Montana. But to date absolutely nothing has been done. An "expert" or two has traveled through the country in an automobile, common led it, made some valuable suggestions concern ing what to plant and what not to plant, and given out sundry inter esting and instructive interviews. But Central Oregon wants actual assistance. It wants the newcomers to have someone m turn to espec ially the homestead settlers in the practically untried territory to the southeast of Bend a trained man who will analyze the!r soil foj them, advise them as to methods of planting and cultivation, and, in short, start them right. Nothing will supply such Impetus to the agricultural development of the country. , Nothing will so much hasten the production of tonnage. Nothing will aid more in eliminating failures. Nothing will bring rr ore would retard their presence a uu In trusion." FARM AND MILL Machinery" Supplies of All Kinds.
