County Argicultural Agent Brown, of Marion county, in outlining the plan of work which will be adopted next year, will endeavor to secure the ans­ wer to questions which are of prime interest to farmers just at this time. Mr. and Mrs. S. T. Summers, of Klamath Falls, who have just returned from an automobile trip to Ashland, report that the Klamath river has been backed up so much by the big Copco dam that the road is covered with wa­ ter in many places. With the largest fall crop in many years in the ground, Linn county farm­ ers have been rejoicing in the heavy rains of the past few days. From all indications now the immense acreage of fall-sown grain will give a big yield next summer. The recent rains have made trouble for the Brown-Petzel Lumber company of Stayton. The Santiam river is now very high, and, although the lumber company has had a crew of men at work trying to save its logs, several thousand feet have been lost. PERSISTENT COUGHS are dangerous.

Carlton, Ore.—At a meeting of the stock holders of the Farmers’ Cream­ ery company it was decided by unani­ mous vote to put in the necessary ma­ chinery for the manufacture of cottage cheese. The high prices being paid for milk by the condensors have made the sup­ ply of cream for the creamery. In taking up the manufacture of cot­ tage cheese the company will buy the whole milk and separate it, using the cream for butter and the skim milk for cheese. In this way they will be able to compete with the condensors in price and assure a good supply of but­ terfat for the making of butter. It is expected to have the plant in operation by December 15. j NORTHWEST MARKET REPORT CroeS Harmless to flush Kidneys and neutralize irritating acids.
