DON’T BE DISCOURAGED
“Don’t be discouraged,” says
John E. Barrett, pioneer home
steader of this section, who has
raised a fine crop of vegetables
on his homestead this year, and
all his farming has been done in
spare time as he has been in
charge of the Green Butte trans
portation and freight all summer.
Yesterday Mr. Barrett brought
a big rutabaga weighing over
eight pounds, a white turnip
weighing nearly five and sever
al potatoes weighing one pound
apiece to the News Office, as a
sample of his* products. He says:
“Notwithstanding the fact that
this has been the coldest, rainiest
summer I have experienced
since I took up the homestead,
the crop is excellent, and though
smaller in quantity than in bet
ter seasons, the size and flavor
of the vegetables is up to stand
ard, and I would say to all the
farmers, don’t get discouraged,
the success of farming in this
district is assured.”
