is far superior to the canned
corn put on the market.
The beans did well and I sue
ceeded in trying my canning ex
periment with them with the
following results. There were
10 rows 150 feet long and three
feet apart, using 5,000 feet of
ground, or approximately one
eighth, of an acre. I figure it at
this order to allow for what
ground must be left at .the end
of the rows, edges, etc., From
this patch we sold 150 pounds
of green heans in the market at
4 cents per pound, which
brought us $6.50. This sum,
with what was used for the
table, 1 considered ample to pay
for rent on the ground, cultivat
iag, harvesting etc. So what the
canned product brought above
the cost of jars, cans, etc., was
aet profit. It was as follows:

At this rate, one acre of beans
uvould 'bring in $129.92 net,
which I should not call bad.
This does not take into consid
eration some late beans which
cation for hot lunches during
the coming school year. This,
I am very much interested in,
for the hot lunch idea Is spread
ing fast in this county and this
will give plenty of good, cheap
materials and a use for the veg
etables that the school garden
ers grow, of which, so many are
wasted.
UNO GRANT CASE
(Continued from Page 1.)
cree of forfeiture was returned
in the district court of Oregon,
and that since that decree no
taxes have been paid by the rail
road company.
The total assessed tax still un
paid now totals $466,872. The
state, as intervenor, will ask that
the decree of the. Supreme
Court, in the. event forfeiture is
sustained, require the railroad
company to pay all accured tax
es to the date of the final de
cision of the court. If the Su
preme Court decides in favor of
the railroad company, the lands
will be subject to taxation and
accrued taxes will have to be
paid.
In one sense, the intervention
of the State of Oregon is at
cross purposes with the plea of
the Atorney-General of the
United States, who asks for for
feiture, and that the lands in
here lost berause they could not i volved revert to tue pUbUc do-

The "canned product was sold
to a Store and to a boarding
house. Those sold to the board
ing house were placed after a
.sample had been left for trial.
' The canning was done prin
eipally "by Miss Jessie Keyt, who
"vyon the trip to the Panama
Patific Exposition on canning.
She canned a variety of pro-
main. It is the desire of Attorney-General
Gregory, in the
event the lower court is sustain
ed, that the lands forfeited be
held until Congress provides
specifically for their disposition.
Attorntey-General Brown, under
authority of the Legislature, will
ask the court, if it declares for
feiture, to go further and decree
that these lands shall be so dls-
ducts in a steam pressure can- j posed of that they may be im
ner with excellent success, and,
at a great saving of time. The
act that the beans were canned
5b 20 minutes in the canner,
against three or four hours by
the open kettle method, demon
strates very clearly the superior
ity of this method. Miss Keyt
wound up her canning this year
with a public demonstration at
iihe Polk County Fair. This was
the first demonstration of Its
Idnd ever held in the state that
I have ever heard of, and, this
done by an 11-year-old girl.
One of the novel things we
mediately opened to settlement
and thereby become subject to
taxation.
There are 299,G0G acres of the
land grant within Lane county,
on which the railroad company
is delinquent $80,527 in taxes.
Since the lower court had de
cided that the railroad should
forfeit the lands, the company
has declined to pay any more
taxes, yet the county is compell
ed to make up from other
sources an amount for the state
tax equal to the state tax on the
did -with this machine was the '300,000 acres.
