Secretary Wilson Says It
is M the Farmer who
1
, Benefits Most
'We have already discovered that
ttie t'urme i-i not gettiug the exor
bitant piollts out of ttie beef he rais
es, ' said S.creta.y Willsou of the De
pur meat ot Agriculture, discussi g
the. high puces f f d supplies.
"1 have uo doubt, in tlie world," he
continued." that the same cond"
tious will be found to prevail in mot-t
ot the ther liues of food products
Ttie Oepsr 111 1' ot of Agriculture has
agents iu every state aud eve y coun
ty tu the couutry and they have
been ordered to report exb.au taively
on th cost of pro notion and the re
turns of sales of all of food products.
As fast ts we receive these figures
we will compare tnstn with tbe prices
tlie same products briup iu tbe
cities where they are consumed. We
will then give tbe fact to the public.
We intend o bring out tbe truth, ir
respectiv ' or whom it hurts or whom
it ben tits. 1 am convinced that tbe
public is cumpelle 1 ti pay a great deal
more for nearly eveiythiag it eats
than it eboul , an 1 b li Vj tue Dg
u es will bear me out.
There is ample excuso for some of
the iucrease iu the cost of living over
what it was yeais ago. The farm area
is uot keeping pace with the deirauds
for foodsiu.i. The cities seem to
have more attrac iom for the labor
ing man thau do the rural commum
ties. The horde of Immigration, as
well as ever-'ucieasiug native popula
tion, nitibt be fe - aud the farm is ex
pectel to furuisa tbe f.od."
Praise for Lakeview
The Alturas Plaiudealer, of the 18th
just commends this towu us follows:
Citizens of Lake view are setting an
example that should be followed by
Alturas. nud indeed, every town with
any civic pride. The salooua are
conducted according to la-, gam ti
lers, lusters, dead beats aud macqu
reaux have been run out, the streets
are kept in a decent condition, aud
now a sewerage system ia to be in
stalled. Indeed Lakeview citizens are
determined to keep sbreast of the
times. aud by doing so will build up
a pleasant little city to live in. Why
cannot our citizens emulate their
example?,,
Niggardly Policy
W. M. Allen, sppeclal agent of the
U. S. deneral Land Oltiie, who was
here a short time siuce, hue been re
moved from ohice with others, for
lack of funds at Port aud to meet
their salaries. Tbe otllce at F rtlaud
regieta such dismissal, as it hampers
the work, but the niggardly policy of
tbe government rendered necessary
such action.
The taxes on an 80 acre farm up in
Skaurit county, Waah. were ouly
211. t'7. In kooiI old Lake county,
Oregon, with the court bouse paid
for, aud money iu the bank, ami a tax
levy of ouly aeven-tnth of one mill
we all have cause for rejoicing over
our leas fortunate neighbors every
where.

Desertion of Agriculture
by the Youth Respons
ible for High Prices
KANSAS CUT, Maich 10. Those
who have been upbraiding the packer
the farmer, tbe butcher and a bost of
other dealers on account of the high
cost of living, have been on tbe
wrong track according to Dr. H. W.
Wiley cbiet of the bureau of chemis
try ot tbe I'nited States department
of Bgrimilturr. Tonight in an ad
dress befom the K'life and Fork club
here Dr .wir juiced the blame.
"Ever? Mute a boy leaves the farm
it is a" i '"ret us to tbe increased cost
of liviug," h said. "A scarcity of
farm labor make wages higher aud an
a ided city populace adds to tbe cost
of food products
"People will soon tiie jof exorbitant
prices for the farm produots. City
people will see the farmer becoming
rich aud they will 'waul to share in
the profits. Then tbe boya will go
back to the farms and simultaneously
prices will recede to their normal

I amount of buhinese it has done tin
past eleven years tbe aveiage daily
. sales of farming lanns made by tbe
Hunter Laud Co. exceed 10UU acres
i per day 1 And tbe reason given for
! such a phenomena! record is tint
tbe purchasers all made money 1
j Mr. Hunter was the former cwnei
! cf the Oregon Military Koad druut
! which was sold by him to the Ore
igoD, Valley Lnd Co. and ty them
parcelled out to several tbousaud
people lact fall.
! After closing that big transaction
' Mr . Hunter secured other holdings in
j the Oolden Goose Lake valley, which
j he will improve, some day not too
far distant, to the great bnuetit of
i Lakeview.
While in Tacoma the 12tb., Mr.
Hunter again showed bis good judg
ment in real estate matters, by mak
ing an outright purchase o holdings
in this valley, mostly located ou the
Wnat Nolo r,f lha l(au.itr T.jlirl Cn
S of Tacoma. The Hewitt Co., formerly
owned the Oregon Valley reservoir
at Drews Creek, and intended taking
up the work of irrigation for Goose
Lake valley, since undertaken by tba
Oregjn Valley Land Company.
The union of Ibe holdings of these
two big concerns, the Hnnter Land
Co. and the Hewitt Land Co., means
much for tbe future wel'are and settle
ment of the Golden Goose Lake val
ley, ana especially so. coming unner
tbe control of such an enterprising
man as Mr. Hunter.
Our advertising columns give evi
dence of this iu the fact that tba
Hunter Land Co. purpose leasing this
land to capable and worthy tenants
on the most liberal and unusual terms
of retaining .".nly a portion of tba
croo of alafalfa as rent for its share of
tbe proceeds.
In furthering tbe interests of tbe
tenants Mr. Hunter proposes to erect
bouse, barns, dig wells etc and in
every way will work for the interests
of those who may thus become associ
ated with him in thia enterprise.
Witb plenty of watet available, and
a splendid market among local stock
men for the product bay $20 to 130 a
ton bere this winter there ia no
doubt about success coming to every
o .e who may care to engage in this
work,, as a partner of Mr. Hunter.
Those who may desire to become
interested by consulting tbe ad. can
loarn where to make enquiry as to
terms and conditions, tor securing
some of this laud, which was selected
years ago from the best pcrcions of the
valley, a-d iu every way are particu
larly desirable.
It Is lso very probable that some
of the presut residents ot tbe valley
will jump at this splendid opportuni
ty to secure an assured income on
such eBay terms.
