) THE CORMLIS 6HETTE. TUESDAY, JULY 22, 1902, WORTH MILLIONS. In his remarks Friday morn ing, before tbebusinets men who had assembled in the recepticn parlors at the City Hall, Mr. G. M. McKinney, of Chicago, gen eral immigration agect for the Harriman railroad system, said that he had visited the majority of the exeat experimental sta tions of the United States and yet he had been able to learn something from his visit to the station at the Oregon Agricul tural College. Never before had Tia VimtA nf "steamed silase. " This method was discovered in J the course of experiments at the O. A. C experiment station, and Mr. McKinney says it will revo lutionize the dairying industry of this country, and add untold - millions of wealth. "It is only a matter of time," said Mr, Mc Kinney, "when the government will recommend the adoption of this niethed. If it had been dis covered by some private indi vidual, who wished to take ad vantage of the opportunity it offered for revenue, he could have had the method patented and reaped a rich reward." No slate in the Union has so much to offer the energetic immi grant of small means whose aim is to make himself a home and assist in converting the potential resources about him into actual wealth for himself and the com munity, as has the state of Ore gon. This noble country, whose many advantages have been de signedly kept from the knowledge of those outside of her borders, that neighboring states might be exploited, is now in the position of a vast reserve of rich and fertile land to be thrown open to home- seekers. Record Your Deed. Many unrecorded deeds ot rea property can be brought to light at almost a moment's notice. reople seem to be eitner very ignorant of the law or very care less. This negligence or lg ranee or whatever it may be termed, may prove expensive in the long run. There is a law which reads that deeds, to be valid, must be recorded within five days from the date of con . veyance of same. On page 1364, Hill's Anno tated L,aws of Oregon, 1887, is an article which reads: "Every conveyance of real property with in this state hereafter made which shall not be recorded as provided in this title within five days thereafter shall be void against any subsequent purchaser in good faith and for a valuable consideration of the same real property, or any portion thereof, whose convevance shall be first duly recorded." For instance, A sells a parcel of land to B, and B fails to have the deed recorded within five days. On the sixth day after the transaction between A and B, C chances to meet A and asks him if his property is for sale. Know ing that no record of the convey ance had been made, A sells the same land to C. The latter acts in good faith throughout the mat ter and immediately has his deed recorded. The property belongs to C according to law. Of course, B may bring action against A for damages, but like any law suit, the outcome would be diffi cult to foretell. On the same page of Hill': Laws for 1897 is a note which reads: "An unrecorded deed is effective as between parties hav ing actual notice, and as to them it 'carries title. The statute ap plies only in favor of parties act ing in good faith, and a subse quent deed with notice of a prior unrecoroed deed passes no title whatever." On the same page is a uote re ferrine to the matter of several conveyances, which reads as fol lows: 'Where neither of several conveyances is recorded within the five days here provided, the one which is first recorded will prevail." Fleschner vs. Sump- ttr, 12 Or. 161. It is possible that tuere snay be later laws bearing on this mat ter, but we are not informed of them and several of the county officials whose duties bring them into closs relation with this sub ject are of the opinion that the above citations are of the laws at present in force. So . it will readily be seen that to be on the sate side in Any event, it is an act of wisdom to have an imme diate record made of a property that may be acquired. For What Reason? Editor Gazette: What the taxpayers seem to want to know, is why have the taxes due against the 4 'Hof glands" not been paid long ago. Why has the sheriff not st Id that property for those taxes? The amount delinquent according to the rolls is $3949-59. covering the years 1895. 1897, 1898, 1899 and 1900. These taxes have been regularly as sessed against the property, and are as fair and honest as any on those rolls. Then why have they not been collected? It is idle to say they , are not a valid lien, for the reason that the laws provide for just such people by requiring the county to bid in such property for the delinquent tax. Why does not the sheriff put this property up for sale and sell it, or let it be bid in by the county? Is not that his duty, if he has the tax in his hands for collection? If he has not those items in his hands for collection, then why not? The law pro vides what county officers shall do in the way of collecting taxes due the county. TheH why have these taxes been allowed to re main delinquent, while other persons property has been sold? Is it in the power of the officers to discriminate in favor of one taxpayer and against other tax payers? Citizen. Corvallis, July 21, IC92. Price Will Be Stiff. "Prices of hops are hitting the high places," in the language ol a dealer, and no mistake. The recent windstorm in Ore p-on. savs the Telegram, de stroyed about 2000 bales, which at the present price of 20 cents a pound represents a good lump of money, although the loss is con sidered light to what it mi$ht have been when one considers the velocity of the wind. A cablegram from London says the crop there is improving, and the vield there is estimated at 450,000 cwt, or 250,000 bales, American weight. The German crop is also looking well. There is a big decrease in the New York crop, which is estimated 50 per cent over that of last year. Whether prices will go any higher or not is problematical Dealers do not think so. About two-thirds of the Pacific Coast it Kinder contract, and in the hands of dealers, who are selling to brewers at 2 f. o. b. It looks as if brewers will have to dance to the tune of dealers this year, for thev cannot very well hide LUC iclCL 1 till l an ui wiv UIUJ are cleaned .out. I hey seem in no hurry thus far to stock up at 23 cents, hoping something will happen to knock the bottom out of the market, but nothing short of a miracle will serve them in eettiue hops cheaper than the dealers ask this year. Has Work To Do. Prof. VV. A. Henry, of the Uni versity of Wisconsin, who recently made a tour of the Willamette val ley in the interest of agriculture and for the purpose of visiting the various colleges, had the following to say of the O. A. C. and her duties: Your experiment station has good reputation back East among kindred institutions, and no college has a greater work to perform than yours. Much that is useful and helpful in other institutions will not avail for Oregon agiiculture, w 1 11 xou nave peculiar prooiems in your agriculture which can only be successfully snved by your own station. It must work them out I sincerely hope the business men will join with the farmer and make common cause in advancing scien tific agriculture in Oregon. Every- Dotty is interested in the success and advancement of the agricul ture of this region. In the East the governors of the states of Wis consin, Michigan, Illinois and In diana all commented on the work of their agricultural colleges and experiment stations in their last annual messages. I mention this to show how matters are changing with 'us and I am sure they will change with you in the same way The Horse Was Found. Sheriff Burnett of Benton county. came over from Oorvallis Tuesday alter a i year-old boy charged with stealing a horse. The boy's name is liaker and he made his home with a farmer near Winkle's butte. The boy had been home to visit his mother at Springfield and stayed a week orer his time. On bis return he was lacked up pretty lively and that evening he went to the barn, took a horse, and when he reached this place, turned the animal loose and started it home ward as he had done on occasions before. The horse was found be low here by Sheriff Burnett as be came to town. It is not believed by anyone that tbe boy intended to to steal the horse, but th sheriff could not do lesa than serve the warrant. No effort was macU? by the owner to find his hors?, but made haste to swear out a warrant for the boy's arrest. Our sympa thy is in favor of the fatherless boy. unction City limes. FROM WELLS. UP.

Miss Winnie Beat returned a few days ago from a visit in Albany: Another cream separator ia in service in this neighborhood. It ia the property of Robert Williamson. A very hard wind a week ago Monday afternoon, wrought havoc with hay shocks, broke limbs from trees, and raised a dost cloud that blinded all who chanced to be'abroad. However, no ser ious damage resulted, and the ram which fell did no damage to the hay. Grain is rapidly ripening, and the hum of the binder will soon be heard in all directions. Mifs Ida Harris, who recently suffered a second severe attack of pneumonia, is almost recovered and abl? to be about. A meat wagon from Airlie makes reg ular tiips through this section on Wednesdrys and Saturdays. This is a much appreciated convenience for farm ers during the busy season. It is hoped by residents hereabouts that the proposed free rural delivery route that is talked of for this part of Banton, may be extended on north another mile. Three families are left out of the route, as proposed, being located midway between the terminus of both the Suver and Corvallis lines. These families are those of John Harris, Jack Hall and Frank Seahrooke. 1 Men who desire work would do well to apply at farm houses as it is impossi ble to secure hands to assist in haying, harvesting or other work. A lady organizer has been abroad in these parts, recently, in behalf of the Artisans. She was quite successful and there have been six additions to the local lodge sinceher visit. Crops are in excellent condition in this vicinity, promising an abundant harvest. Dr. Frank Hall and family left last week for their borne in Albion, Wash., after a visit to Benton and Polk counties. Robert Wilson returned recently from a trip through Southern Oregon. He thinks Benton county the best place for a home that he has seen. Mr. Ed Croisan, of Salem, was the guest over Sund.iy of his uncle, A. J. Hall. Mr, Croisan is the newly elected senator of Marion county, receiving the office at the hands of the republicans at the June election. He has also served as sheriff of Marion. Mr. and Mrs. Cam Vanderpool are in Eastern Oregon, visiting relatives, and will make a trip to British Columbia be fore they return. home. They will be ab sent several weeks. Mr. and Mrs. David Elate have re turned from a visit to their sons, in East e.-n Oregon, They were accompanied hsme by their son, George, who will vis it in Benton a short time. With his brother, Harvey, he owns an immense sheep ranch iu that country, and they are the largest wool dealers in that sec tion. Mr, and Mrs. Robeit Hodse visited in Bjena Vista, Sunday. Muldoon. By way of Correction. Ed. Gazktte : I said in letter of July 3 that the tax roll, page 168-9, for 1901, showed tbe Coast Land and Live Stock Company's property was assessed at something less than 80 cents per acre, the figures being 16,401 acres and the to tal valuation being $13,017, and so it ap pears on the assessor's roll. But I have had the roll examined further, and that in the sheriff's office, a copy of the other shows that the board of equalization raised this assessment to $20,510, or f 1.2-3 per acre. Mr. Davis accuses me ef wilful misrep resentation. That is not correct. The lands were assessed as stated in my former letter, but I did not then know that the board of equalization had raised the assessor's figures . Citizen.
