Truek Gardening WU1 Be Profitable
While the freezing weather of teat
Wednesday and Thursday nlghta will
give them a set back, mid-Columbia’
truck gardeners, because of the em­ ;
bargo plai-ed on tbe
r garden truck of
California, due to > the hoof and mouth
disease, expect a profitable year. Gar­ .
deners of this section are already mar­
keting *a varied assortment of stuff, in­
cluding asparagus, splnaeh, rhubarb
and radtebra. Local grocers declare i
that tbe early white icicle radtehea i
that are being marketed here by Fred I
Tooley, of Rowena, are of a finer qual­
ity than usual.
The acreage of potatoes in this sec­
tion, it is anticipated, will be increased I
this year. The application of the anti­
Japanese land holding law in Califor­
nia, according to tbe word brought
here by California pototo dealers,
will decrease the potato acreage in
that state materially this year. As a
naulUof the exodus of Jspanese, it is
declared, potato prices have already
shown a considerable jump here.

“After the country was wrested
from the Kaffirs, prosperity followed
fsrming which was begun in pioneer
style, like that in Oregon about 50
years ago:- A few cases of foot and
mouth disease broke out occasionally,
but the country being well stocked
with cattle, no notice was taken of it.
Then a great drouth struck the coun­
try. No rain fell for five or six
months. Then of a sudden, so to
speak, overnight, the plague, called by
the Boers, Rinder-Pest, broke out
amongst tbe cattle. The breed of the
latter was of good class. The Lukus
have a tradition that they came from
northern Africa and were descendants
<>f ths Arabs, and naturally they took
great pride In their animate.
"Stringent measnres were at once
adopted by the whites, and all infect­
ed animate were shot and their car-
i-assea burned. In spite of this the
disease could not be restrained. Some
days It mysteriously jumped 20 and
30 miles ever the quarantined areas
and broke out with renewed fury.
Then the theory was advanced that
the testae fly, which breeds In the neck
of big game, carried tbe virus. How­
ever,'any horsefly which might have
alighted on a carcass or .infected
animal might have carried the germ.
Any cattleman will agree that cows,
after all, are dean animals and very
sensitive to certain surroundings. As
Is well known, there existed an old
feud between cattle and sheep men.
"The Kaffirs were not at first affect­
ed by the disease. Then all of a sud­
den tbs sleeping sickness stalked them.
It killed them by the thousands.
i the wrHer
him-
White people were

When atung, as kind

wr( malarial fever

.
developed, something like influenza.
"The whites thought they would
stamp the disease out. The savage
Matabeles. "however, told by their
witch doctors that the whites bad
brought the disease'into the country,
rose In rebellion snd killed everybody
they could find In tbe outlying dis­
tricts. Little hews of these butcheries
was allowed to leak out by the Char­
tered Compuiry. Tbe disease had by
this time swept the country clear of
domestic animate The once fertile
land, with its many military kraals,
surrounded by fields of Kaffir and In­
dian corn, became a complete desert.
The rivers dried up. The remaining
water holes became poisoned, and
withal the picture was a dismal one.
"I had a 9,000 acre cattle ranch, and
I had to kill all of my animals. I was
well acquainted with the big game
hnntera, Including Colenbrander and
Cunningham. I agreed with them
that the disease was first. In all like­
lihood, the regular foot and mouth
disease, which was aggravated by the
drouth, carelessness. By allowing the
sick animals to mingle with big game
resulted in the dreadful Rinder-Pest,
Tlie adjoining state, the Boer Repub­
lic Transvaal, made stringent laws
nnd kept the disease out of their coun­
try. This waa made comparatively
easy, as the railroad had not lx>en
completed to Matabeleland and a
boundary of hundreds of miles of bush­
veld gave the patrolling Boers a good
chance to stop any rustlers who might
lx? foollqh enough to call down on
theinselvdl^ the wrnth of cattlemen
like the Transvaal Boers. The sleep­
ing sickness amongst the Boers, ac­
cording to reports, te not yet entirely
wiped out.
"The Pacific coast region, especially
Oregon and Washington, wijh their
rAinfall and their splendid ’ grazing
facilities, need have no fear of any
cattle plague breaking out.
How
much sickness spread amongst domes­
tic and sometimes wild animate will
very likely remain a mystery. It be-
hooves tlie cattle men to lx* on their
guard. If they act ruthlessly in their
fight against the. disease, there is no
reason why, in this rich country of
the states, tbe disease cannot be soon
stumped out."

The niid-Columbia celebrated forest
fire prevention week last week very
improperly. Following the drying east
wind that prevailed from the east, the
tinderlike forests were fired In varioua
places. On Neal creek, where It was
necessary to send a crew of 26 men,
who were aided by’ the big motor fire
truck of the city, a fire threatened
green forests and several hundred
cords of wood. In the Upper Valley,
west of Parkdale, brush fires got be­
yond control and caused a worry for
some time. Fires In tbe vicinity of
Trout creek caused ranchera alarm.
It i was feared that houses might be
destroyed.
Several fires were started in 'Klick-
itat and Skamania counties, Washing-
ton. The worst was on Wind river,
where crews were called out by forest­
ry officiate to quell a blaze threatening
a body of green timber.
The wind changed to the west Sun­
day night, ending danger of further
blazes for a time. The continuation
of the strong east wind left the humid­
ity
of the mid-Columbla unusually low
<
for this season of the year- Fires in
the forest of the Northwest were gen­
eral and much damage waa caused.
Why We Patronize
Home Industry
My home town paper’s ads I scan
For bargains offered by each man,
Who keeps a store in this live town.
His goods are all of high renown;
The price Is cheap; the weights are right;
He’s on the job both day and night.
That’s why I never send my cash
To mat) order houses for their trash,
But spend It here where I can see
The benefits it brings to me.
Our home town merchants pave each
street;
Their taxes built our schools complete.
So when my buildings need a coat of tan,,
1 patronize our Home Paint Man;
And all things else—Lumber, Cement and
'Fuel,
I buy at the Tum-A-Lum, I am no fool.
BALL PLAYERS WIN
BUT GOLFERS LOSE
Two Ilood River teams returned
home Sunday evening after Invading
The Italics, one victorious and the
other defeated.
The Hood River baseball team was
able to register a 3 to 1 victory over
The Dalles nine, while the golf team
from the llood River Country club
came back with the small end of a 81
to 4 score.....
The defeat of The Dalles nine by
Ilood River probably eliminates Tbe
Dalles as a pennant contender, as two
losses to Hood River and one to Was­
co have thus far been encountered.
Was<*o at present has the beat chance
for pennant honors.
Sunday's golf match was between
two 12-man teams, and la the third
time that The Dalles golfers have de­
feated Hood River. Only otfe out of
the 12 Individual matchea was won by
the locals.
It is expected that a similar match
will be played over the Hood River
course shortly.

INTERESTING DATA
- ON CATTLE DISEASE
With their fairly heavy rainfall and
green pasture laud, Oregon and Wash­
ington, according to A. Dester, local
man, who was formerly a rancher ef
Rhodesia, South Africa, need have no
fear of serious consequences from the
foot and mouth disease among domes-
tic animals. Mr. Pester, however, ad­
vises tbe application of strict quaran­
tine against California livestock and
agricultural products, in order to bring
the disease under coutrol.
Mr. Pester, tbe author of two books,
dealing with bis African explorations,
one on big game of South Africa and
the other concerning the ancient work­
ings of tbe Queen, Sheba mines in Rho­
desia, recalls that the dread disease
struck Rhodesia some 23 years ago.
He says:
•
"The interest the population of the
Pacific coast is now taking in the foot
and mouth disease may not make it
Iauilss to recall some of the incidents
•f the great African plague in the
days of the ('bartered Company of
Rhodesia. I am one of the few men
still alive, of tbe 400 who went from
Mashonaland to Matabeleland to pun­
ish King Lobengote for murders com­
mitted on white traders.
