REFERENDING THE VAWTER BILL
IN an article discussing legislative measures upon which
ihere is probability of a referenduni, the Portland Ore-
gonian says:
Another measure thnt might ho
is that empowering tho State Highway
20 per cent of thq state highway riiuua on tho Pacific Highway In Jnuksou
County. This measure wns Introduced and supported by tho'.tackson poun
ty delegation, who pointed out thai Jackson County had expended largo
sums Of hioney on the Pacific Highway and that the state should show Its
good faith and encourage tlioso rounties thnt liavn neon taking t no loan
In this direction. The legislature evidently supported this contention tor
there was little ncttve opposition. Hut since then various othur parts of the
state havo been uttering mild notes of protest.
Here we have the true Oregon spirit. Jackson county
has spent, more than any other county upon highways. It
is spending hair a million "dollars on tho state highway
atone, which provides entrance into Oregon from Califor
nia, yet because the Vawter bill diverts twenty per cent
of the state highway fund, an amount approximating
$-15,000 a year, towards the highway's completion, refer
endum talk is heard.
This highwa' is the principal trunk line of the state,
and traverses its most populous centers. This particular
section replaces a tortuous mountain toll road. Its grad
ing alone has cost $130,000. Its construction is of benefit
to the entire state and it should have been constructed in
its entirety by the state, as the California connection is
being constructed. Hut to wait until Orogon becomes pro
gressive enough to build its
out of reach for the present
has takejj the initiative, spent
co-operation irom mo state in its completion.
'
The legislative appropriations and the continuing ap
propriations total nearly eight billions of dollars for state
expenses the eoininti biennium. Of this amount, the
$90,000 asked in the Vawter bill is all that is spent in
southern Oregon a little over one per cent, and about a
third of what Jackson countv
port the state. The balance,
and for eastern Oregon lunatics, is spent in the "Willam
ette valley. Yet because the one per cent goes to another
part of the state, m permanent development ol the state,
we hear talk of reierendum.
Southern Oregon had a concrete demonstration of yis
ionless Oregon when the Crater lake road appropriation,
making accessible its greatest natural wonder, was enjoin
ed and invalidated by the supreme court, which rules one
way for southern Oregon and another way for the rest of
the state. To spend $100,000 in making accessible a na
tional park, where the federal government is spending a
million, is a "local affair," and therefore unconstitutional,
says the court, but to spend $-150,000 in building an irriga
tion system that benefits
acres is, according to the same court, a statewide affair
and perfectly constitutional.
"Wliy," asks the Portland Qregonian, "do the south
pm Oregon papei-s talk of the southern Oregon counties
seceding from Oregon to ;join California t Js it to roo Ore
gon or to enrich California?"
Neither. It is to benefit themselves. It is to get out of
a state, where they arc evidently not wanted, a state with
out a development program, a shite that denies a square
deal, a state where co-operation is denied, a state where
tjie knocker is always swinging the hammer against prog
ress, into a state that does things, that co-operates, con
structs and upbuilds.
It lias been frequently said that it would be worth mil
lions for southern Oregon to be in California, where its
cjimatc places it, to escape the blight of Oregon. This is
true, in a measure, for Oregon does little or nothing, and
that begrudgingly, for southern Oregon's development,
while the California policy is a broad and comprehensive
one. But better than joining California would be the cre
ation out of northern California and southern Oregon of a
new state the proposed state of Siskiyou.
A referendum on the Vawter highway bill is to be ex
pected. The only obstacle is the expense entailed,
although "Willamette valley reactionaries are usually ready
to spend a dollar to check development if it will save a cent
in taxes. The mere talk of referendum on such a project
shows what a progressive community can expect in a vis-
lonless state.
When Is Your Soil
(Hulletin U. S. Dcpt. of Agriculture.)
WASHINGTON, J). C, Murch 15.
"When U the proper time for pre
paring to plant one's garden! "
The United States department of
agriculture's specialist Hnyn Umt in
the spring its soon as tho noil has
dried no that a handful when grasped
in tho hand and gripped iv tho fin
ger, will hlowly fall npart upon being
released, it is in ri1 fit inechunieal con
dition to prepare for planting, -phiv
or heavy soils should nevor be work
ed while wet. More injury may be
done by doing this than can bo over
come ii heveral years of careful cul
ture. When tho oil is found dry, an de
scribed above, tho upper three inches,
fihould be made fine by the use of tho
hop and steel-tooth rake; all rubbish,
stones nnd clods should bo removed
and tho surface made, even, some
what compact, nnd us level as tho
contour of tho area will permit. It
mny then bo marked off for planting
in conformity to the general plnn of.
.the garden.
Much of tho soil in the average
back yard is not only poor in plant
food nnd deficiont in decaying vege
table mnttor, but it is hard and un
yielding. However, such is the basis
which many a housewife or child has
.to nso ror the making or n gnnlen.
Teachers who plan school gardens for

tions to meet. Therefore, in order to
get good results, careful attention
must be given to tho preparation of
the soil.
Soils which are naturally moist are
likely to be sour nnd so not in the
best condition for the crop. Whether
sour or not, it will be well to have
tho pupils test them, which can be
done, us follows; Secure from u drug
store a piece of blue litmus paper;
then take n handful of the soil slight
ly moistened nnd place the paper on
it. If Hour, the paper will turn red.
To correct such a condition lime
should be used. Cover the ground
with a thin coat of uir-slnked lime,
which cun probably he secured near
by at small cost, nnd work this jn
well. The use of tho lime, while not
n plant food, will correct the acidity
and will improve tho physical condi
tion of the soil.
If tho soil is clayey or n stiff clay
loam and tho location is in n Section
where severe freezing occurs, it will
bo found a decided advantage to givo
tho area u heavy dressing od dcom
posed manure in the nuuumn, and be
fore freezing weathor sets in spado
tho land so as to turn tho immure
under und leave tho soil in a rough,
lumpy condition so as to secure the
benefit of the digostivo action of the
winter freczqs in reducing the soils.

The tribal coim-il of the Klamath
Indian reservation has appealed to
tho commissioner of Indian affairs to
urge a cougronsioiinl appropriation of
1,()()(J,0()0 to finance the tribe in
fanning its laud allotments. The
council suggcnted that the government
be reimbursed bv the sale of timber
owned by the Klamath Indians, which
is valued at $20,000,000. It is pro
posed that the money asked bo spent
under the supenisinn of the govern
ment. It is said that an uvcrngo value of
a Klamath Indian's property is about
$23,000.
