Some people raise appreciative audience. Gilliam county farmers and Condon busi ness men have always been in terested in better highways but the address of the Willamette Valley good road enthusiast, has put the subject before them in a new light and has brought words of encouragement to those who have been keeping the movement alive. J. E. Hunt acted as chair man and introduced Judge Scott In his address Judge Scott complimented the school author ities for declaring an intermission objections to our movement be cause it is a big proposition. It is a big movement to be sure. It appears so at first sight; but it is not so large that an effort can not be made to bring about its realization. A start must be made sometime and the state as sociation has made a start I have been employed to arouse in terest in the cause of better highways all over the state. This is why I am here today, not because I wish to criticise what has been done here but rather to and the business men for closing explain the aim of the a&socia their stores during the session, tion."

Successful Farmers See Need of Such Guide. The letter printed in The lobe last week telling of the establishing of, an experimental "dry farming" station in this county if the farmers were will ing to lend their support has received the good will of the majority of the best ranchers. The Mayville Grange has dis cussed the proposition and the members are united in helping the movement The experiment station is to be located either in Gilliam or Sherman counties, it is to be carried on by experts in dry farming, men who say the soil of this county is adapted to yield immense crops every year if farmed in the right way. From the experiments in this very see tion the farmers would gradually learn new methods and farm to better advantage. In the fruit growing section of the Willa mette Valley the model orchard farms have proven valuable to the success of fruit growing, in the same way will these experi merit farms benefit the farmers. Here is the opinion of a few of our successful farmers: W. A. Campbell of Ferry Can yon says: "I think it would be a great thing for the farmers of this county as we cannot learn too much about farming. Also as an advertisement for the county, it could not be beaten The farmers of this county need an organization and this station would help to get one started." County Judge Dunn when asked by a Globe representative , for his opinion said: I am heartily in J avor of the experi ment and the farmers Bhould al take hold of this proposition and push it along. There should be no half-way measures." M. J. Lynch of Gwendolen re- , marked a few days ago, l cer- Tiainly think an experimental i farm would be the finest thing for this county that could happen I am willing to rent these peo ple any amount of land they may need, land lying right along the railroad, and in every other way help it along all I possibly can. I think the farmers should get busy and pull together." Geo. Gibbons, one of the most successful farmers this county has had and who sold his fine ranch near Mayville a few weeks ago, says, "I am sure that the experiment farm would prove a source of great and lasting bene fit to the enure county. Mot a few of the farmers go at things in a haphazard way and blunder along, where, if they had a sue cessful guide they would save hundreds of dollars. We talked this matter over at the Grange meeting last baturday evening and decided there that this farm is the very thing that Gilliam county needs." Wm. Looney of Ferry Canyon and a pioneer of this county and state, said, "I have not given this matter much thought but from what I have heard of it I think it would.mean much to the county and the farmers here." Lloyd rarman, one ol our large ranch owners and success ful farmers said when asked for his opinion, "This experiment farm would undoubtedly be a fine thing for the county. These people have , made a science of farming and the experiments they would conduct right here in our own county with the nat ive soil would prove of untold value to our farmers." Geo. B. Dukekof Mayville-'A meeting of the farmers of this county should be called at once in order to secure this experi ment station if possible. I think it would prove a great thing for the farmers over this county. Sherman county wants it and is working hard for it so we should attend to it without delay." J. A. (Richmond of Ferry Canyon Baid, "I would very much like to see the experiment al farm located in this county and furthermore I think it should be located as near the county seat to be in the center of the population. It' would be a grand thing for the farmers of this county and therefore for every one else in the county.
