Irrigation.
A Carey Act Irrigation segregation
ombraclng approximately 200,000
acres, lies to tho cast and north or
Ilend. This land Is watered under
tho supervision or the State ot Ore
gon, and becomes tho property of
settlors who aequlro It by residence
and Improvement, paying from $16
to $40 un aero for water service,
with an annual maintenance charge
or 20 to 80 cents an acre, tho lowest
maintenance rnte In operation.
Non-lrrlgable acreage Is purchased
at $2.30 nn acre.
Directly adjoining Ilend are two
other Irrigation, enterprises, JhjJJi
conducted on a farmers' co-operative
basis, and both exceedingly prosper
ous.
On tho Irrigated lands all the pro
ducts or tho temporate zona prosper.
Tho will and cllmato. however, arc
particularly adaptod to tho success
ful production or grasses and root
crops. Alfalfa, clover, grain, pota
toes and other root crops, Including
sii8r beets, do remarkably well,
Tho yield or butter rut from the
grasses Is exceptionally great, and
this, .combined with tho pure soft
water, and tho lack or excessive heat
mid cold, destlnos this territory to
tako tho trout rank . as a dairy
country. The establishment of
large creamory at llond, and tho aid
given farmers In securing fine cows
by the local hanks, means that a man
with forty acres who will raise grasi
and reed It to his cows will be as
surod or a comfortable living,
- Work la now In progress upon a
great new Irrigation cJftal.-iktfCfVn as
tho North Canal, which will irrigate
some 60,000 acres ot land. The
canal gets Its water from the Dee
chutes.
Dry Farming,

Already a 1700 horsepower plant

Tho man who comes to Ilend or
tho adjacent sections of Central Ore
gon will bo agrocably sin prised at
tho pleasant surroundings ho will

For Instance a University Club
recently was organized In Hond with
36 charter members. That Indicates
tho character ot tho men who .aro

Tho sportsman will find the Ilend
country n veritable pnradUo. Fish

Soiling Crops For Cow.
Soiling crop should bo ucd more
extenslrcly by dairymen. In section
of the country where bind Is very high
and the farmer forced to employ every
posilble mean of making It produce
as much food as possible soiling is
common. Thla I noticeable In por
tions of Europe wber tbr cows are
kept up most of the time and where
trerr aero must produce a large
amount of feed. Hut while wo have
pastures and silo we will not be forc
ed to follow foiling. Vet there are
many dairymen who could use a few
acre of soiling crop very profitably
Hy nlng barnyard manure very liber
ally a few nrrea In rolling crops would
be of grpnt value.

Feeding the Lambs.
Krery furnivr who rne ulieep should
prepare for weaning time by provid
ing a Held of extra good pasture Into
which the lamb may bo turned. A
field of rape that tin been sown early
will uwer very well, or a clover
meadow that has been cut early may
b utilized. It I esHcntlal that tho
pnnture be clean and doo not har
bor the parnxlteii that work aurh great
buvoc to I lie lamb crop during the sum
mer monllM. Stagnant and Impure
water supply Is frequently the cauwi
of much loi. Many tine flocks of
lamb have practically been destroyed
by allowing them to hare aecrx to Im
pure water. The keeper should giro
close attention to till matter, cpe
daily during the dry seaon. Tho
lauitx -should rrrclvr a grain ration to
take the place of ibe tiourihment that
was furnished by the milk previous to
weaning. Ilrnn nnd oats fed In small
ipinntlllc will provide a ration that
meet nil requirement and will go a
long way toward promoting a vigorous
growth.
The Dear Nsfds Car.
The boar la too often the most neg
lected animal on the farm at thla sea
son. Thl should not le. Ue need
such care as will put him In the best
possible physical condition for this

responsible for so many smalt and un
satisfactory litters I not to be denied
About the best place for a boar dur
ing; the summer and early fall U a
small shaded pasture, where bo can
get plenty of green feed and exercise.
He need company, too. and anouiu
have at least oni quiet, pregnant sow
to ran with blm.
For grain feed he needa auch that
will keep blm In vigorous condition
Of course corn alone Is too fattening
for any breedlm: animal. However,
we have no objection to It furnishing
