"Representatives of the U. S.

discuss in a general way the sub
ject of apple storage and re
frigeration and to report some
thing of the Government's pro

behavior of fruit in cold Btorage.
This is a timely topic and one
that will interest the live fruit
growers who appreciate the
value of the work that is being
done to develop the subject

From Weston, Oregon, comes
news of the first returns of the
1913 harvest season. From a
field measuring 88 acres, J. N.
York, a farmer at that point,
harvested 1103 sacks of extra
fine wheat indicating an average
yield of a fraction over 77 bushels
per acre.
At the present time a farmer
in the Molalla District, about 20
miles from Oregon City, is harv
esting a crop probably not grown
by any other rancher in the
Willamette Valley, -teasels. His
present crop consists of about
70 acres and during the harvest
season he will employ about 40
hands at $2.50 to $3.00 per day.
The teasel is a bur for which the
manufacturers of cloth find a use
in raising the nap of the goods,
a process for which no inventor
has ever been able to invent
a mechanical substitute.
As a result of the recent visit
of Chief Forester Graves to the
Siuslaw Forest Reserve, the
agricultural lands included in
that tract will be opened to entry
by homesteaders. A large part
of the land best suited to agricul
ture and dairying has already
been surveyed and segregated
and the balance will receive at
tention as soon as possible after
applications by prospective set
tlers have been received.
Drink Boiled Water and
Avoid Typhoid Fever
(Cuinmuuiciitctl)
During the warm season it is
very advisable to drink boiled
water whether at home or abroad,
whether in a hotel or at a sum
mer resort or in a strange city.
This is a very good antidote
against typhoid fever. Many
typhoid cases which are recorded
in the fall in cities or localities
enjoying good drinking water.
may be traced back to water
taken when abroad. The water
was not free from dangerous in
gredients causing typhoid. In
case you cannot get boiled water,
make sure about the good re
putation of springs, wells or tap
water. Do not take any water
that comes from a source near
an outhouse or horse, cow or
sheep stable, or in a neighbor
hood where typhoid is at all prevalent
out Polled water is not as
palatable as unboiled water.
However you can make it palat
able. Water soon after having
been boiled, has a flat taste, be
cause the boiling drives out of it
the air which it kept in solution
Boiled water will regain its air
and have its usual taste restored
by the second day. Put the
water after boiling in scalded
shallow open pans and give
twenty four hours allowance to
stand where flies and dirt cannot
get at it You will have whole
some dringing water.
Precipitation for June
and July Past Ten Year
It is the June and July moisture
that counts most in making and
maturing our crops. While the
total precipitation for the past
two years has been below the
average, the rainfall for June
and July has been above normal
as will be seen from the append
ed table taken from the record
of U. S. Weather Bureau Service,
and this has been favorable for
growing crops of both hay and
grain.
