, H. Wnllor, wlio 1ms 11 little fami on
Hoj-h Lnnc, between Muilfmcl nml
Central Point, brought to tlio Com
inercunl pin)) rooms yesterday two mi
ar lici-tM, one wu'mhini: 18 pnitnriit
find Hip other 17. They were pro
duced without nitificinl irrijmlion,
but investipition shown thnt the Irncl
ou whieh tliey weie produced is suit
irrigated. Thnt is the het irrifrn
lion known to agriculture, wlien prop
erly managed by drainage. The Ilos"
I.nne tract is a sediment deposit of
alluvium, the best coil in the world,
when properly combined with Bandy
loam, to nroduce sugar beets.
Vhat tho content of sugar may bo
in these beets is not known. The soil
in whieh one. of them was grown is
not sub-irrigntcd properly. When its
roots htnielc tho hard .ground the
growth extended upward, and much
of it, therefore, grew out of tho
ground. It is safe to mark thnt beet
as being deficient in sugar. Irriga
tion in tho measure necessary to keep
tho soil moist enough to freo the
plant food always increases the su
gar content, as well as the healthful
growth of the root. The elements, nrn
thus brought into proper sympathy to
produce the desired combination of
contents. ;
A Misleading Suggo-Mlon
One observer of these big heels
remarked that, if tho fanner had
kept the soil sonked with water he
could raise sixty tons to tho acre,
and, ho added, "lie could maku big
money at that."
This observation would mislead
the rutin minccustnmed lo rnisitn; su
pir beets, either for sugnr or feed.
If the farmer had kept his soil soak
ed with water he would have ruined
the product. Tho value of a sugar
heel is not determined by its hize, but
by its sugnr content. Too much wa
ter would destroy the latter and in
jure the soil in which it grow to ab
normal proportions.
-If the fanner hud (5000 plans lo
thn nere, and each plant produced i)
beet weighing five pounds, topped
nnd washed, be would have a product
of fifteen tons, worth i7.".
It is tho small beet, grown under
favorable conditions, that contains
Hie greater content of oigar nnd per
centage of purity per pound of root.
In n properly cultivated field of
beets this would he the general char
neter of the plant.
T
COURSE AT 0. A. C.
rOHVAI.LIS, Or., Dee. S. -That
every student registered at the winter
short course be given individual in
struction is one of the aims of the
l'aculty of the Oregon Agricultural
college and the state station workers.
Tho winter short course is to be held
from January 10 to February M at
tho Oregon Agricultural college. One
of the principal courses this ye.ir is
toiie that of horticultuic. Not only
will the fruitgrowers be given the
most pinctieal instruction in the act
ual woik of pnmintr trees, spraying,
planting, etc., under the Dcrsonnl
guidance of experts, but they will be
invited to tako advantngo of the con
sultation hours that arc being ar
ranged in order to bring up for dis
cushion the peculiar problems they
are facing in their own work. The
colloge and station workers thus
hope to bring tho woik of the insti
tution diiectly to bear upon the or
chard operations of every man in at
tendance at the short coure.

To tho Editer: 'While all persons
arc presumed to know tho law nnd
abide by Its provisions, the prohibi
tory law which becomes operatlvo
January 1st Is so voluminous nnd far
reaching in Its provisions as to bo
the subject ot much misconstruction.
In tho hope thnt a better understand
ing of tho law mny be had, nnd that
we may nil work together for a full
and economic enforcement of It, 1
submit herewith a simple digest of Its
moro salient features.
I desire also to nnnounce that I
Intend to do all that Is humanly pos
sible to enforce Its provisions fully,
and to call upon all good citizens to
help In tho work. Public sentiment
and fenrless citizenship nro the
strong factors In law enforcement,
and if tho citizens of Jackson county
will stand behind this lnw in the
ratio thnt they voted for It I can ns
suro them a complete nnd economic
enforcement of it, but If they nro
careless in their citizenship In this
particular they mny expect law viola
tion, employment of spotters nnd de
tectives, costly trials and consequent
taxation.
I havo discussed tho enforcement
of this law with tho JiuIkch having
Jurisdiction of its violations and nm
assured that no clemency will bo
shown in tho penalties Imposed.
Very truly,
E. K. KELLY,
District Attorney.

Here is a benrt-grippiu'r picture from that most desolate land in tho

tragedy tho destruction of a nation. One of the 10.000 little Seibian

worn completely off nnd the other hangs in tntters with' it'cnno of goat
skin around his neck nnd his cap tied on with string of cloth over his
ears.

Molybdenum is one of the precious
metals. Xot much Is generally known
about it. The fact is, so far as min
eralogists know, there isn't much of
it. In 1013 we iniportcii seven and
eight-tenths tons of it, valued at
15,1).'U. It is found in Australia and
llritish Columbia; and, finally, it is
believed it has been found in the Sis
kiyou mountains, fourteen niles from
Afedford. A enmnnnv. nmiiiii? Hie

The claim is loented in sections 10,
18, 20 and 121, township 30 south of

The Kuropean war has enhanced
the value of this metnl, .just as it has
