The largest single crop in Oregon is
dairying which amounts to about
$J5,0(XJ,000 annually. If every scrub
or poor grade were weeded out and
replaced by purebreds or good grades,
the value of dairy crops would be per
haps doubled. At any rate the profits
would lie doubled, for it costs but
little more to handle a cow that pays
her board than one that does not.

Things actually produced from

livestock, together with timber and
fish, amount to $301,000,000, or about
$400 per capita of population. This

output of the mines which amount
might safely be placed at one-fourth

banks stand on the big broad proposi

movements for the development of the

In financing the movement of crops
and livestock the banking interests
have been ready and willing to do

NEWS ITEMS FROM
THE COURT DOCKET
From the Hillsboro Argus we glean
the following:
Mary E. Young has sued David
E. Young for divorce, alleging failure
to provide. Young waB a carpenter
and tne two were married iNov. Z-i last.
The complaint says that Younir, al
though he had several hundred dollars
in cash, and a mortgage, did no work
after his marriage, and just remained
long enough to help eat up the bet
ter portion of her winter supplies and
then vamoosed. She asked for $100
suit money and 4U per month per
mancnt alimony.

as a life estate. In case she survives
her husband then the estate oes to
her in fee simple. The will was made
up in Alaska, in 1912. According to
the papers filed, Brown was aged 76
years at the time of his death.

INCOME TAX FACTS GIVEN
FOR BENEFIT OF READERS
In making out his income tax re
turn for 1921, the average taxpayer
will find a considerable saving in com
parison with the amount of tax naid
on the same income for 1920.
The exemptions provided bv the
revenue act of 1921 are $1,000 for
single persons (tne term including
widows, widowers, divorcees, and
persons separated from husband and
wife by mutual agreement), $2,500
for married persons whose net income
was $5,000 or less, and $2,000 for
married persons whose net income
was $6,000 or more. Under the rev
enue act of 1918 the personal exemp
tion allowed a married person was
$2,000, regardless of the amount of
net income. The personal exemption
allowed a married person applies also
to the head of a family, man or wo
man who supports in one household
one or more relatives oy blood, mar
riage, or adoption.
The exemptions for dependents a
person who receives his chief support
-
lvott because mentally or physic-
ally defective is increased from $200
to 4UO.
The act requires that a return be
filed by every single person whose net
income for 1921 was $1,000 or more,
every married person whose net in
come was $2,000 or more, and by ev
ery person single or married whose
gross income was $5,000 or more.
lhe requirement to file a return of
"m income of ?5,000 or more re-
gardless of net income is a new pro
vision. Net income is gross income
less certain specified deductions for
business expenses, losses, bad debts,
etc., which are fully explained on the
forms.
Returns muBt be filed by married
couples whose combined net income
for 1921, including that of dependent
minor children, equaled or exceeded
$2,000, or if the combined gross in
come equaled or exceeded $5,000.
The period for filing returns is
from January 1 to March 15, 1922.
Heavy penalties are provided for fail
ure or "willful refusal" to file a re
turn on time.
Forms 1040A for incomes of $5,000
and less and 1040 for incomes in ex
cels of $5,000 may be obtained from
the offices of collectors of internal
revenue and branch offices. The tax
may be paid in full at the time of fil
ing the return, or in four equal in
stallments, due on or before March
16, June 15, September 15, and De
cember 15.
Great Powers Agreed
The great powers of the world have

LOGGING TRAIN KILLS
ONE AND INJURES SIX
On Tuesday afternoon of this week
over near Cochran one man was killed
and six seriously injured when a log
ging train dropped through a trestle
to forty feet below into the Nehalem
river. The accident occurred about
4:30 o'clock, and the train was com
posed of only one flat car and the en
gine. The train waB carrying a crew
from the woods to the camp at Reli
ance. Investigation showed that the train
left the trestle on a curve and for
some reason unexplicable the ties and
track had slipped from the trestle
work throwing first the engine and
then the car into the canyon. The en
gine fell partly in the water, where
the fire caused steam wnicn scaiaea
the men imprisoned under the wreck
age. The scene of the accident was with
in seeing distance of the camp and
men there were able to assist in the
rescue. One difficult part of their
task was jacking up the locomotive so
that those of the crew caught beneath
might be reached.
The last of the men held prisoners
under the wrecked brain were not re
leased until almost 6 o'clock.
Rohert D. Parker, camp machinist,
was killed outright, and the following
njured:
Francis Wiest, president and man
ager of the Weist Logging company,
right arm cut on ana ngnt leg irau
tured; recovery doubtful.
John Wiest, camp superintendent,
brother of Francis Weist, fractured

It was the
search for
a mythical
Fountain of Perpetual Youth
that led Ponce de Leon, the
Spanish explorer, to land near
the present site of St. Augustine.
His rediscovery of Florida In
1518 was on Easter Sunday,
hence the name, which la from
Pascua Florida or Flowery Pass
over, which Is the Spanish for
Easter Sunday.
The French wen the next set

St John's river. Spain promptly
took action to maintain her own
ership of this region and sent
over an expedition which erected
a fort under the leadership of
Menendes at St Augustine In
1665 and exterminated the Huge
not colony. St. Augustine Is the
oldest city In the United States.
There followed a period of hos
tility between the English col
onists in the Carolina and the
Spanish In Florida. By the trea
ty of 1768 Spain ceded Florida
to England In exchange for Ha
vana, which England bad cap
tured a few yean previous. It
remained an English colony . un
til the last years of the Revolu
tion when Spain recaptured It
There were two provinces,
Bast and West Florida. As the
Spanish ruled Florida with a
very loose form of government,
this region became the refuge of
pirates, smugglers and lawless
characters, Such an element to
gether with the unruly tiemioole
Indians naturally caused a great
deal of trouble. To overcome
this. President Monroe pur
chased Florida from Spain In
1819 for $0,000,000 or about
eleven cents an acre. It was
organized into a territory and
in 1846 was admitted to the Un
ion. Florida is sometimes called
the Everglade State on account
of the vast swamp-land in Its
southern part It is also known
as the Peninsula State and is the
southernmost State of the Union.
Its area Is 68,660 square tntles.

FARM POINTERS
(From O. A. C. Experiment Station.)
Thorough fannine or cleaning of
spring grain for early planting will
remove manv lisrht. weak, and broken
kernels, leaving seed that will not rot
so quickly in cool soil. Good stands
mean better crons.
Moss on fruit trees is most quickly
got rid or by the use ot one pound
of common lye dissolved in six rallons
of water used as a spray. Bordeaux1
mixture has proved the most perma
nent control.
Potatoes are sometimes planted in
February to provide a very early crop
for table use. "Earliest of All1' is a
good variety to use in this way. The
seed should be planted whole to avoid
rotting in the cold soil. Some early
potatoes may be had in this way;
where sous are late in getting dry
enough to work later in the season. ;
CONVENTION TO BE
HELD IN SALEM
The Christian Endeavorera of Ore

JETTIES OF MISSISSIPPI
ALTHOUGH the "Father of Waters"
has several mouths, none of them
provided a satisfactory channel for
the never-ending procession of steam
ers which carry millions of tons of
commerce (one Item of which, dur
ing a recent year, was 16,736,144
bunches of bananas) from the ports of
the world to and from the port of
New Orleans,
The western-most one of these
mouths Is known as Southwest pass.
It Is about 16 miles long, of Irregular
width, had a tidal, variation of from
16 to 28 Inches, was Influenced by
floods and obstructed by a submerged
sand-bar over which the water was
poly nine feet deep.
Notwithstanding these handicaps,
army engineers considered It the best
route and set about to force the river
to run as they thought It should.
They planned to dig and build a chan
nel 1,000 feet wide and 86-feet deep
through this pass, so that the biggest
hips could steam right up the river
and anchor off New Orleans,
They dredged the head of the pass
for Stt miles to give It the necessary
width, closed a number of outlets to
conserve the flow, built "sills" to pre
vent the outlets to the river above
the mouth from enlarging; dredged
away the sand-bar (removing the
equivalent of 86.000,000 wagon loads
of sand and mud), constructed Jetties
more than 20,000 feet long to protect
this dredged channel and built spur
dikes as necessary.
Southwest pass new satisfactorily
performs th, work which falls to the
lot of the official mouth ef America'!

BEAVERTON ORCHARDIST
GIVES PRUNING ADVICE
I desire once more to call the atten
tion of the fruit growers of our
county that it is now time to begin
thinking of our trees as now is the
proper time to nrune. This nart
the most essential to raise good fruit
but very little understood. We see
some getting in the trees and cutting
out a twig nere ana mere and then
call it pruning. Others take out large
limbs and leave a stub standimr. Oth
ers go so far as to take an axe and
chop out large limbs, thinking they
made a slick job. So it is no wonder
the trees get the heart rot and in a
few years they are worthless and
then they wonder what is tho matter
with the trees,
In the first place, never use an axe
in your trees unless you intend to cut
them down, which by the way, would
be the proper thing for many of our
trees in vvasnington uounty. lou win
not have to go far into th interior,
but look alonir our hiirhwav at some
of our fruit trees. They are covered
with Scale and wormy fruit and all
the neat that can be found on trees
that are not taken care of.
We want more neonle to settle here
but if they take a look at our trees
along the highways that settles them
elsewhere,
Now I- am well aware that there
are many who would take care of their
trees u they only knew how to do it.
But who will show them? For the
last few years our orchards went down
mil at a very rapid pace because we
had no one to show them how to take
care of our trees. The County only
anows tne maenmcent sum ot xiuu
I for twelve months work and I say
not bad a fruit inspector that under
stood his business since Sam Gallo
way. He was aurelv the vi?ht man in
the right place and we made great;
progress aunng nis incumbency, out
for some reasons, not known to me, he
would not do. I suppose he must have
hurt some ones feelings, at any rate
ne naa to go.
Now as to nrunine. If it is absO'
lutely necessary to take out a large
limb, make a cut about two feet above
where you are going to take off the
limb then after it is cut off
cut off the remaining two feet. First
make an undercut, so as not to peel
the bark when the limb falls and be
sure not to leave a stub standing as
mat win cause heart rot. Then ev-
ery limb 2 inches or more in diameter!
paint with any kind of paint and the1
cut win heal over in a short time.
Then prune your trees and do not
be afraid to cut out too much as you
will get better fruit. If your trees
nave not Deen pruned lor some years
do not prune too heavy for the first
year as you will raise too many wa
ter sprouts. If they do appear you
can take them out any time during
tne growing season. Should it be
necessary to cut off some of the top
(commonly called dehorning) be sure
to cut close to the lateral, that is to
a branch just below the cut.
now as l said betore, be sure and
make a smooth close up cut and above
all, leave no stubs standing. Much
more could be said but this will give
you an idea.
Now a few words about cherries.
I have people askintr me. "I have some
cherry trees, and they bloom heavy
but are very Bhy bearers . Asking;
them what kind of variety thev plant
ed, the reply, "O, the best kind of
course, that is the Royal Ann, Lam
bert, and the Bing." They are surely
the best kind of our sweet cherries,
but they will not bear unless another
variety is in close proximity, as all of
the above are not only sterile, but in
tersterile, that iB, the one will not
potlinize the other. Hence there has:
to be either a May Duke or a Water-1
house, Black Republican, etc, planted
near them in order to pollinize the
others mentioned. If you have the
trees first mentioned you can get
some of the latter trees and take some
branches during the blooming period
and place them In a bucket of water
and hang them in your tree. It will
help to pollinize the others. There is
much more to be said but I am mak
ing this too long.
Now as to spraying, etc. I will
have to postpone until my next let
ter. I noticed in one of our County
papers head lines reading this wav:
"The Best Fruit Land," and he surely
knows as that has been verified manv
times, but when you see in another
prominent county paper an advertise
ment that reads, rA Big Shipment of
