(Special) Walla Walla is ready to
1 1 entertain the thousands of visitors '
j expected iu the city for tha tractor'
'.and DftwAr fArmtnc HAmnnstnitlnrfJ
I April 23, 24 and 25. The home
(owners of Walla Walla have thrown
wide their doors to the Commercial
club's housing committee with the
result that Walla Walla .will be able
to take care of 20,000 visitors daily.
. The . big 600-acre Yenney ranch
where the tractor and truck demon
strations will be held is close to the
city. Transportation will be by
automobile and more than 200 Walla
Walla citizens have donated their
cars for the event. This will enable
visitors to reach the grounds
rapidly and return at their conven
ience. Many exhibits already have been
received in Walla Walla and there is
hardly a day but what some new type
of truck or tractor is seen on the
streets of the city. Local dealers
planning exhibits have their equip
ment on hand for the event and great
tents have been rented in Seattle,
Spokane and Portland to cover dis
plays of truck and tractor access
ories. " '
One huge tent will be used to dis
play power equipment for the farm
home where the farmer's wife will
will find all that is new and modern
in farm labor saving devices. Within
a very few days all of the many de
partment heads of the Oregon Agri
culture college, the state college at
Pullman, Washington, and the Uni
versity of Idaho will be in Walla
Walla to participate in the event. So
will be county engineers and county
agricultural agents from over the
Northwest. Acting Governor Han.
will be in Walla Walla for the show
on April 24, and other prominent
state officials plan to take part in the
demonstration. '
The program for the event calls for
many features of interest to the
farmer.' The three days will be given
over to demonstrations of round
wheel and the track laying type of
tractors. Farm trucks will be
loaded to their capacity and tried out
under various conditions including
severe tests on soft ground.
Private and public instruction in
the operation, care and upkeep of
tractors and trucks will be a daily
feature at the show. Discing, plow
ing, seeding and harrowing by power
machinery also will be demonstrated.
The big Yenney ranch offers every
condition faced by farmers of the
Northwest and was selected by the
general committee after a tour of the
country lasting nearly three weeks.
Secretary Fetterman reports more
than 150 exhibitors with a belief that
additional exhibitors will come in
the last few days previous to the
opening of the demonstrations.

Secretary of Agriculture Notifies
Director of Extension That
Present Policy Is Rest.
Carrying out the guaranteed wheat
price agreement of the United States
is to be left in the hands of the
federal grain corporation; unless
President Wilson designates the de
partment of agriculture as the hand
ling agency, says a recent notice to
O. D. Center, director of O. A. C.
extension.
I he secretary of agriculture be
lieves the grain corporation is best
fitted by organization and experience
to go ahead and close up the work.
The guarantee act seems to assume
that this should be continued. It
would be difficult for any other
agency to set up machinery for hand
ling the matter, and a great dealof
duplication would be bound to result.
"The task is of great magnitude
and the time till the 1919 crop be
gins to move is short," the secretary
tells Director Center.
The secretary has cabled the presi
dent urging continued use of the
grain corporation, but s;.ys that it
the president desires the department
to handle the guarantee it will as
sume the task and do tlio best it can.

L BENE
FIT EASTERN OREGON
Though it is a fact not generally
known, Tillamook County, the most
productive dairying section of the
State of Oregon, has to Bhip in hay
and other forage for its dairy herds.
On this account farmers of Eastern
Oregon profited to the extent of
$100,000 in 1918. While the Tilla
mook section and the coast country
in general boast as fertile soil as can
be found anywhere the grasses grown
there are not converted into winter
fodder, for the reason that the pro
duct is more valuable for grazing
dairy cattle.
Tillamook County was not the only
coast county that proved to be a
good customer of the alfalfa raisers
of tho irrigated lands of Eastern
Oregon. All the rest of the seven
coast counties purchased hay as well,
though in smaller quantities.
The proposed Roosevelt highway
along the coast would open up a
great agricultural empire in that
region, and in a few years millions
of dollars would flow out to the hay
producers where now only hundreds
of thousands are spent by the dairy
men. In 1918 Tillamiok Cofinty sold
throughout the United States $2,000,
000 worth of cheese and dairy pro
ducts alone. This gives an inkling
of what. will be the result, if millions
of acres of land like that in Tilla
mook are opened up to cultivation
and settlement through the medium
of the Roosevelt highway. . Based on
what has been shown in Tillamook
County, $100,000,000 worth of tax
able property would be added to the
wealth of the state if the rest of the
coast region is developed in like man
ner.
Grass is green every day of the
year on the ocean side of the coast
range of mountains, and the climate
is so mild that the cattle do not need
to be fed, as in other dairy sections
of the United States, notably in the
middle west and on the Atlantic sea
board, but, as has boen stated al
ready, it has been found more profit
able to keep the land sowed down to
clover pasturage for the dairy herds
than to raise hay thereon. That is
why the coast country will always he
a great market for Eastern Oregon
hay.
