SMITH TALKS.
Just as the tiny acorn grows into a
mighty oak so any enterprise beginning
in a small way will, by courteous treat
ment, develop into a successful, pros
perous business. Note the progress of
my business and ask wliat it means.
It simply means that I am giving the
public honest values for every dollar in
vested ill mv store and that everyone
receives the most courteous treatment.
I carry a complete assortment of dry
goods and shoes as well as a fresh and
up-to-date stock of groceries. 1 handle
any kind of produce that there is a mar
ket for and pay the highest price for
same. On July 6th I am going to give
away for the benefit of my customers a
new 1901 $40 bicycle.

money orders drawn on any other office

as an ex[>eriment, postmasters have been
flaying money orders drawn on any post
office, when they could satisfy them
selves that the orders were all right.
This scheme lias been found unsatisfac

Oregon Inis lost a useful citizen in the
death of Hon. O. H. Irvine, of McMinn
ville, who died in Albany last Sunday.
Mr. Irvine, though comparatively a
young man hail, through the exercise ol
his abilities, attained a prominence
among men that few acquire. He was a

Tile farmers’ meeting for an address
from C. R. Smith of Minnesota, the
dairy agitator for the Southern Pacific
railway, came oft duly at the opera house
on Monday. About 200 of Yamhill's
leading farmers were present, and man-
fested a deep interest
Mr. Smith is an
entertaining ami convincing speaker.
He said Oregon had some as good far
mers as anywhere, but their neighbors
wont learn from them. One man grows
a fine field of clover, while his neighbor
says you can’t grow clover on red land,
in the face of 40 years’ experience.
A
few took interest enough to come to the
meeting but, a lot of neighbors hadn’t
time to come. He told how 17 years ago
Minnesota farmers awoke to the need of
diversified farming, ami how as a result
any one of the seven railroads running
south and west of Minneapolis is doing
more business in a week than any rail
road in Oregon does in a month. Ore
gon farmers have fewer obstacles to a
change of base than the Minnesota far
mers had then. They didn’t have to
plead with them that bankruptcy was
before them—it was already present.
They were told to try cows.
They an

we know nothing about dairying.
We
cannot raise in four months,feed enough
for eight months in competition with
countrys of longer growing seasons.”
But they agitated, and the farmers tried,
and the result has been the establish
ment of 38 creameries in 20 townships^
in his section of the state, which have
issued 1750,000 in creamery checks in 12
years operation. Smith had met a far
mer near Salem feeding as nice ensilage,
on the 10th of May as he ever saw any
where. His neighbor being asked if
the other man was not getting along
well, replied:
“Well, I don’t know
whether he is or not.
You can't tell
anything about that fellow.
He’s a
crank and the biggest fool in the state
of Oregou.” This illustrated the lack
of confidence there is locally among
neighbors, and how little the ne’er-do-
well will learn from the well-to-do.
Smith didn’t care whether they believed
what he told them or not, so long as they
would “keep talking about it” and
workout their own salvation. He knew
that $400 distributed throughout the
year in a family was much more satis

The foundations for
doing a good farm business are already
laid in Oregon, he said. You have good
strains of cattle and hogs and advantages
of soil and climate that many do not
have.
Smith's plan for raising corn in this
valley for ensilage was given as follows
in answer to a question : Would put in
only as much land as I could manure.
Would plow early and harrow every
