FAItM DEVELOPMENT IN THIS COUNTY. Great work la going on In the way Of developing new farms In Josephine county. Perhaps the undertaking that claims the grea'st attention Is that of the Leonard Orchard rom pany which ' has expended many thousands of dollars wlthlu the last few months In preparing Its land for rops.. The Rogue ulver Orchard OOmpnny hns put the largest amount of land under cultlvat'on but It has taken a year longer than the work done by the first named organization. R. E. Kroh, whose property adjoins this city, has expended a large sum In the Improvements on his land and It being under Irrigation, grand results may bo looked for. In the Frultdate district there has been much land cleared and put to crop and It Is snfe to say that the farmers of that sec tlon will have forage enough for their stock. All over the county th work of clearing small farms Is going On and 1912 promises to be a record year In this part of Oregon. These improvements have, hen of groat alun to laboring men and have cop trlbuted largoly to the business In terests of Grants Pnss.

In accord ance with the plans perfected by the Taft leaders a fortnight ago, the con vention committee on permanent or ganization today voted to recommend that the temporary organization be made permanent. This will continue Senator Root as permanent chairman and obviate the necessity of a test vote on a new man while at the same time saving time by doing away with a permanent chairman's speech.

Tho official figures show that more than O.onij.uoo bushels of po tatoes have, been Imported from for eign countries durlug tho last few mouths. Canada has furnished a considerable portion, but by far the largest pnrt camo from Europe. Thoso (Inures would Indicate that tho United States is not a very good po tato country, and yet this Is not tlu case. The soil of nenrly nil tho tates Is ndapted to potato growing nd we Just ul m ply lack the energy, btllty and help to do the work. The high price of Inbor Induced many farmers not to put In a potato crop last year. What w 11: be the output In 1912 Is hard to say, but, from facts which hav come before tho publl. the United States will not be required to go abroad for Its potato upply next winter. It Is only fair to point out f'at our potatoes In 1911 were attacked by disease and this accounts to some extent for the large Importation. Josephine county trill not bo obliged to ship In potatoes even from other counties In the tat, as our farmers plpnted ninny acres this spring. THE BALTIMo:.,; CONVENTION.
