DETAILS ARE DESCRIBED Oregon Soil Particularly Adapted to Proem tobor I Only Factor InTohred Grrat Remits Are Possible. To Mart a campaign in Oregon for the removal of stumps from logged -off land . and thus increase, the possibilities of the agricultural and dairy Industries In the state. Secretary Wllaon of tbe In! ted States Department of Agricul ture haa instructed Harry Thompson, expert on firm management, to appear tf fore the Oregon Development League and deliver an address upon ths char pit process of destroying stumps. j nr. j nompson was la I'ortland yes- iror in roniqutunn wun ine pro , gramme committee of the Development league, which will meet In Salem next Monday, so as to comply with the wishes of his superior officer. Room was gladly mad for hlra on the programme. "I regard tha removal of stumps from the land In Oregon." said Mr. Thomp son, as of more importance than any Ingle Issue which you have confront ing you. If a campaign can be In augurated la this state which will clear these lands tha assessed valuation of tha state win be Increased many mil lions of dollars. I hare in charge the work of experimenting with the process In me state or Washington, being as sisted by Professor II W. Fparks of the Washington Agricultural College at I 'unman. The Stale of v ashing ton ap propriated 11000, providing that tha Federal Government would give an equal sum. This has given us $10,000 and wa shall this Winter conduct our experimental work at Tacolt, Wash. Thera Is a splendid chance to show Just what tha burning of stumps by tha char-pit process can accomplish In and around Tacolt Process Is Feasible. "WTiat can be accomplished there can tie performed In Oregon and you have a larger and wider area to work in. (T.a r- plttlng la not especially a new process. It h.ae been used, in Michigan and Middle West stales havlr.g timber. "All tha bark la removed from tha B'umpei to a height of about two feet abovo the ground. Er.oujrii dry kindling wood la gathered from tha ground and down Ires to form a ring six to eight inches to tMcknneaa entirely around tha atumpa where the bark has been re moved. After tha kindling Is placed. It Is cloarty eovared with clods and thick flakes of clay dug near tha stump with a farm ahovel. leaving only a small wpacet. about a foot wide, for igniting the kindling. "After the kindling gt thoroughly started burning, the one-foot opening is a!so covered with earth to drive tha fire around tha entire ring of kindling lika a charcoal pit. When the rletng smoke Indicates that the kindling Is well lighted additional dirt is placed closely around tha stump to kep all tha heat Inside tha rasing of the earth. None of tha heat escaping. th fire grows hotter from tba burning stump and slow ly destroys) the stump. Tall stumps will burn entirely off just above the casing of tha earth, and such crowns can be readily burned up in log heaps. The bed of coals left where the crown burned off should bo covered closely with addi tional earth and all roots that are ex ped above tlia ground should aim be similarly covered with from six to four inches of the earth and the fire will follow roots to their ends dear below plowing depth. Cost Relatively Small. "Tou soe the process is a very simple oca and does not involve much work as compared with the present methods em ployed Data hare been complied on the preparing, firing and tending of 100 stumps kept burning continuously at an average cost or less than 60 cents a stump, only labor and S center worth of matches blng used. These stumps aver aged ei Inches In diameter at tha baas by actual measurement. "Our plan for Oregon Involves securing tha aaahktance of tba development leagues of the state so that sufficient money can be secured to apread thia gospel and show to tha farmers and owners of logged lands tha advantage of tha pro ces. The method Is inexpensive, com pared with the usa of giant powder and donkey encines and. the labor Involved In getting the roots out. "Oregon tvss a great opportunity to develop along this line and I am con fident that it will produce more cleared land than anything which could be de vised. The soli in this state Is particular ly adapted to this processi so far I can observe, and if tha promoters and In dustrial boosters' will take up the sub ject tha Government I am aure will as sist all It can in bringing the plan to a successful conclusion by giving actual demonstrations In tha various districts of tha state. "I have been told that ' Oregon has more land with stumps than it has cleared Isxd 4 mean In the western portion and If that la true you can double your cultivated area In a brief time. I figure that the cost of clearing :ana oy tne ccar-pit process will run from Jlfl to JT0 an acre, depending upon the number of stumps found. There Is a wlda divergence In the number of logs to an acre and I believe that 300 stumps to the acre is close to the maxi mum and that there are few places on logged lands where that number will ba found." . !gie is open again CHINESE TOXGS BREAK AGREE MENT, ARRESTS FOI.IVOIV.

Fantan Joint Raided and Dealers Caught Other Games Running In Inaccessible Places. Evidence that the "gentlemen's agree ment." whereby the Chinese gamblers pledged themselves to discontinue all games upon orders of the Chief of Po lice, has gone all to smash, was ob tained by Patrolmen Martins and Shaf fer, when a well-appointed fantan Joint, newly opened at 287 Everett street, was raided and two games were found running. The officers arrested the dealers In one of the games and confiscated tl0 of stake money, but the other players escaped. Arrests -for gambling in Chinatown have been Increasing rapidly after a brief period in which the Celestials ad hered rigidly to their agreement and conducted no games. The close-down came several months ago, after Chief of Police Cox had found unworkable his policy of permitting the Chinese to gamble strictly among themselves The gamblers persisted In admitting men of other races, thereby arousing action on the part of the grand Jury, tha Municipal Association and th Japanese Consul. Order was Issued that all the games should close, and the heads of tha tongs voted to abide by the order and pronounced dire penalties upon any. of their people who violated It. For a few weeks the agreement was strictly kept, but it was assumed at the time of tha tong meeting that the games would open as soon as ths storm had blown over. Such haa proved to be the case, and It Is known that numerous games are running In the North End as briskly as ever, to which Japanese, negroes and white men are freely admitted If they are known to the gamblers. Every motbod haa been used by the officers to get at these places, with varying success. They have lnforma Hon, however, concerning a number of games running In Inaccessible places, where they have been unable to make arrests.

Al Nathan Relies on Contention That Hazel Morrison 19 Not Alien to United States. When his attorney, C. W. Fulton, failed to secure instructed evidence of acquittal in the "white slave" case now on trial In the Federal Court, AI Nathan yesterday failed to take the stand in hi own behalf or to produce any witnesses. The case will go to Jury this morn lng. Mr. Fulton waited until the Govern mcnt had presented its case and then asked that Judge Wolverton order the discharge of Nathan on the technical ground that Hazel Morrison could not be considered an immigrant because she had been absent briefly from the state after acquiring a residence. The girl had left her clothes In the Astoria room occupied by both Nathan and her self and had testified that she was will ing- to come back and enter a dlssoluta life If Nathan would marry her. As a second ground for the Instructed verdict. Attorney Fulton urged that It had not been disproved that the father of the girl had been an American clt lzen. It had been proved that the father of Hazel at one time lived In the United States and tho inference was that he had become a citizen, Mr. Fulton said. -Judge Wolverton held that the fact that Hazel Morrison was an immoral woman when she came to the United States was sufficient ground for re fusing her citizenship and afforded ex cuse for her deportation, regardless of the contention that she had established a domicile here. Mrs. Al Nathan was placed on the stand to show that Nathan was her husband and not in position to marry the Morrison girl. Mrs. Nathan ap peared wearing a hat which covered the upper part of her face, her nose being covered with plaster and gauze. She neither looked toward nor recognized the prisoner while- in the courtroom. She was accompanied by her mother. Commissioner-General of Immigra tion Keefe was in the courtroom and gave close attention to the proceedings. COLD SNAP IS PREDICTED Temperature of 3 6 Degrees Fore cast for Portland. Predicting a cold wave for the night and warning all shippers of the liability of damage to perishable freight, tha Weather Bureau of Portland Issued a statement yesterday of the approaching low temperature. The thermometer is expected to register In Portland 36 de grees by 4 o'clock this morning, 20 at Siskiyou, 26 at Boise, 23 at Spokane and 84 at Seattle. It is to be the coldest weather experienced during tha season upon the Pacific Slope. The official fore cast states that it will be fair tonight and tomorrow. Westerly winds prevail. Tho advices issued to the shippers was as follows: "Protect shipments as far north as Se attle against temperatures of about 34 degrees; northeast to Spokane, 28 de grees; southeast to Boise. 26 degrees; south to Siskiyou, 20 degrees. The min imum temperature at Portland tonight will be about 36 degrees."
