THURSDAY JWLV 7, f0O4.
FARMERS V MAJORITY.
&m nr w r has made a cwtnt
f the recently elected member of
the legislature bsw iliicovered that
the farmers are in strong majori
ty in that body, as compared with
any other clam, tbrre beinR 20 tft
lora of the soil and five atockmen
among the member of tlx two
houses and only 14 lawyer. Five
bankers, nine merchants two drug
gists, seven lumber manufacturer
and tw real estate dtuilcra repre
aenj the ro called bueiness inter
ests, which combined only makes a
atandoffagainst the farmers and
Mocktnen, while there is a eprink
Jing of doctor, dentist printers,
professional office holdera and
members of other yocalion.
With tbe farmer in such nnm
Iwjrsin the law making body it will
be interesting to watch tbe course
f legislation next Winter and see
how many laws are enacted which
may reasonably be expected to be
nf direct benefit to that class. If
the farmers and stockmen who are
members of tlw next legislature
will get together and initiate and
demand the passage of such meas
ures a themselves and their fel
low all over the state are interest
ed in they should be able to accom
plish eouiethinsr but it will require
organisation and united effort in
the interest of the farmer of the
entire elate to accomplish much.
One matter in which the best ef
forts of every farmer-member
should be enlisted ia that of the
portage road at Celilo-, for to no
other class will such. great benefit
accrue from the completion of that
improvement as to the farmer and
stockmen of the eastern section of
the state. No matter from what
section of the state a farmer has
been elected he should urge and
vote for the immediate construct
ion of the portage because it is a
measure in which the farmers, as a
class, are vitally interested. Any
other action on the part of the farmer-legislator
wonld be nothing
short of treason to his class.
Member of all other vocations
stand and work together for the
protection of their class interests;
why not the farmers?
GOOD ROAD TALK.
(M. S. Shrock in Pacific Homestead.)
"In a general way the roads in
Eastern Oregon are not difficult to
improve. The soil in most cases
packs well and, if properly drained
and rolled, the roads would last for
years with very little work. If the
water in Winter and Spring is al
lowed to stand in pools in the mid
dle of the road or is allowed to run
lengthwise of the wagon tracks for
several hundred yard the road
does not improve with age.
"If the road graders were brought
into play a little more and every
bit of road well rounded up and
then thoroughly packed by using
a heavy roller the result would be
an agreeable surprise to the land
owners and freighter.
"Tbe roller is, I think, a vital
necessity in making good roads and
the time is not far distant when
each county, if not each road dis
trict, will have a steam roller of no
lessthan ten tons weight. I am glad
to know that some of the counties
already have them. Without the
roller the ground does not pack
alike over the whole width of the
road nor does it pack sufficiently
to exclude the water.
"If a rut is filled with loose dirt
and allowed to pack by the regular
process of travel it will only last
until the next wet tpell. Either
the rat will be filled too full and
water will accumulate on the up--per
hillside or the rut will.be filled
about even with the balance of the
road and the heavily loaded wag
ons will compress it until it forms,
with the next shower, a larger mud
bole than the previous one.
"A much better and safer plan
would be to use the grader and fill
all depressions then roll thorough
ly until there is no dent or, if there

is, fill it op and roll again. Then
w grader ain and make the road
lightly rounding, lloll again un
til every hit of dirt is firmly and
evenly packed. If this process is
con tin art) until the mad ia well
rounded up noamountof water will
saturate it as it shed water like
cement. Special care must betaken
to see that tbe side ditches are open
so that no water will be allowed to
remain stand. .ig along the road-
fcide.
"I have seen gravel hauled long
distance at great expense and
dumped into mudhole in the road
when it might as well have been
dumped into the river. It is time
wasted to put gravel on any road
until the roadbed has first been
brought to the propeJ shape and
thoroughly packed so as to form a
firm foundation for the gravel to
rest upon. No gravel can pack
and form a hard, smooth surface as
long as the soil beneath it give or
settles, and the only remedy for it
is proper grading and an everlast
ing amount of rolling.
"Roller-laid gravel roads are thus
made in some of the eastern states
that are almost an exact counter
part of cement streets and their
wearing xualities are unlimited.
After the road bed has been thcr-
onghly prepared the gravel is put
on in two or three thin layer and
each layer is thoroughly rolled.
"With the exception of a few
places the roads of Eastern Oregon
do not need the gravel as the dirt
surface, if properly laid and drain
ed, wonld suffice for all needs.. This
is especially true where wide-tired
wagons are used.
"I think the present good roans
agitation that in manifesting itself
all over the United btates i a time
ly one. I hope it will continue and
increase in proportion until our
road are what some of our other
institutions are a model for other
countries to copy after."
