Dear Editor Reporter : I enjoy reading the letters in the Reporter from former Centre countians living in the Middle West, but I think Washington will take the prize for big crops and perhaps valuable land ae well, I enclose you a clipping from the Be- attle Post Intelligencer, giving an ace count of a big oate crop. This land lies about seventy-five miles north of Seattle, close to Puget Bound, and is reclaimed land made by dyking the Skagit River. There is close to 20,000 acres of this valuable land, divided in- to farms of from forty to three hun- dred acres, Most of it is valued at about $1000 an acre, while some could not be bought for less than $3000 an acre. Oatsis the prineipal crop, but some wheat, hay, and potatoes are also grown. Oats sells for $28.50 per ton in Seattle ; potatoes, $30 00 per ton and wheat 85 cents per bushel. Potatoes were selling for as much as $70.00 per ton last spring, just before the new ones came onto the market. Both al- falfa and timothy hay sell for about $15.00 per ton in Seattle. Following is the clipping referred to and is dated September 14th : “The biggest yield of oats yet report- ed ort the SBamish fl «tu is one hundred and seventy bushels per acre, per, which is leased by Robert Rich. ardson, The land which produced the bump- er oate crop was sown to cabbage for sixteen years until this year, Harvesting ia somewhat delayed by the heavy rains, There are yet a good many stands which have not been cut. A mejority of Bkagit county's crop is still in the shock. W. Harry PorTER. Meadowdale, Washington. i —- Beaetits of Spraying aad Pruning, The benefits of more scientific care of the orchard is being realized by John C. Rossman, of Centre Hall, who last spring becams the owner a young orchard immediately eas: of the borcugh line. planted years and little or no care had since been given it. pruned, fertilized and sprayed twice. The fiuit now is of a superior quality, and the limbs are loaded to their full- est capacity. Another gentleman to profit from the agitation of better care for the orchard is W. Frank Bradford, the station agent at Centra Hall, two orchards at the Old Fort. They were long neglected. The pruning done last spring was more like lum- bering than anything else, Msoy of the trees are now bearing abundantly and the quality of the fruit is also good. One or two years later the old trees will be in better condition to re- deem themselves. ssp ltl Special Pabile Orchard Meoling about nineteen Arrangements have been made for a special public orchard meeting, Tues- day, October 3rd, at 1 p.m, in the orchard of Howard T. Btruble, at Zion. The program will consist of a review of the results obtained in this particular orchayd which, indeed, is worth while for every fruit grower in the county to observe. Up-to-date orchardiog will be discussed by T. C, Foster, the local representative of the Divison of Zoology. The meeting should be largely attended. eo A— Who Ave The Men Rauning For Distriet Attorney 7 Why not support the one who has served the Democratic party the long- eat 7 Why not support the one who is a member of the Bupreme Court, mak- ing him eligible to try all cases be- fore this court ?
