Western Oregon has cxiwrienc cd a very backwuid spring and very little rainfall. Last winter was the most sovero in years and mucb damage is roporled among fruit growers. Young walnut trees culTered and many of the fmo roso bushes and ornamental shrubs woro killed. disposed of tlfeir intorotH m thoroand tho snya sho itlrty re turn. Tho Tinioa-IIornld man has boon given considerablo conatmr lion along the liho of nut cu'tuiv nnd is going to take it up scien tifically in tho Harney count iy as soon art ho returns (?) In all seriouinoss, howevor, it is sug goetod that walnuts will grow in that section as thoy produce abundantly in England undei similar conditions. Thoy make a bountiful shade treo. Thore is much interest through out this section in the develop ment of Eastern Oregon and thoy at last seem to ronliso tho impor tance of getting that vast tern lory oponetl up to transportation, TIIH "OLD MAN'S" TRIP. It is quite likely there will be a largo number of Willamette Valley people come to the Har ney valley this year. Tliev wish to get larger holdings than the usual farm there, besides they de sire to engage in grain raising and that is out of the question with tho soil of that section. From pretty well all over the wheat growing section of north eastern Oregon and southeastern comes the report of sufficient rainfall to be of great benefit to growing crops, practically assur ing a good yield. If wheat stays anywhere the present price the farmer can pay off the mortgage. The afternoon raveling to the morning dish-rag in th big tow er at Portland has broken its long sphinx-like silence and has given central and eastern Oregon a good editorial write-up. What prompted it is hard to tell, unless tho merger inquiry made its ab ject stupidity so apparent that it had to wako up and get into the procession. The main ideas in tho article are reprinted on the first pare and may be worth your while to read. Some of our local road 'milder should visit outside sections and see the advantages of building good permanent roads. Although the Willam&tte valley is beinj. gridironcd with electric roads thf various counties are improving their high-ways in a most satis factory manner. Of course it is quite essential where they have so much mud, but their facilities for road building do not compare with ours. Macadamized 1-oad.T are being b'iilt tluotighout that section and the farmers are the first to demand it. Thev rodYiu tne benelits and never object to a road tax. Harney county should begin in the right way. Nothing would add greater fcn our wealth than good roads. Of course our roads arc good now at most seasons of the year, but wo all know that much money is act ually thrown away each season in tempoiary repair work. More or less of this class of work must continue, but wo can make some permanent roads as wo go dong. Editor The Times-Herald: Since leaving Burns 011 the fiist of February, until my return on tho 7th of this month, 1 have been around the state considera ble, having in the meantime spent less than two weeks at Ir ngon and The Dalles, both of which are considered my "home" towns. I attended the meeting of the Oregon-Idaho Development Con gress at Boise, Ontario and W01 ser, the latter meeting taking place on April 30th and May 1st. It was by odds the best meeting yet held in point of attendance, and I am very sorry there wu i not a larger number of Burns people thare. Wo particularly missed Jlr. Hanley, who was de tained on tho automobile route between here and Vale. It was very unfortunate that lio va de tained for we needed Mm badly, The next meeting will be a1 Burns, July 1st and 2nd, and believe there will be a large nt tendance. I am quite sure there will be four or five auto loads from Weiser. headed by Dr. Numbers and Colonel Heigho. and more from Boise headed by that prince of pushers Itlelly Athinson. and thealwayB-present Max Mayfield. Ontario and Vale will also send large delegations, so that I hojie to see at least 20 auto's come in loaded with dele gates. 1 I suppose most of your renders know that since my January visit J have been down to the Coos Bay country, where I sjient two weeks, for I have been toll ing about my trip in the Portland Journal, and almost everybody hereabouts takes that imper. However, I went down by boat Register nnd Receiver, Burns. Oregon, Gentlemen: Pursuant to pui" ajnapli 2 of lltocnculnr of March 2.). lius und'M' tho enlaiged homestead Act of Koburary IP. lK)9.

They have no lar,d here for such purposes, it b-mg too valuable forfruitand nut culture, even if it were capable of pro ducing cereals as it has in the past. Hop yard3 are being turn ed into Walnut ground and other portions devoted to good apples and the finer-varieties of fruits. A farm in the Willamette that will produce 12 bushels of wheat is considered a fine one- that is for that class of product so it is necessary to devote the soil lo something more profitable. Such being tho case, tho great inland empire must be developed. This adds 0 our prospects for imme diate transportation facilities. ' The Times-Herald man found several old time acquaintances in Dallas, among them was Martin from Portland and came out bv the Btage to Drain. I looked ov er the region around Coos Bay, went uji the Coos river lo the neaa 01 navigation, went for many miles along the Coauillu anu came out up the Umpqua. I visited the towna of alarshfield, North Bend, Coquille and Myrtle I'omt in Coos county and held meetings at each place. Those meetings -were largely attended and my talks about Central Ore gon wore listened to with close attention. I never addressed more intelligent or more enthu siastic audiences in my life than I did at those places. I have found in my travels that people are not only thinking but getting ready to act on the pro posed constitutional amendment ana 1 believe with the propur amount of missionary work a majouty of the votes a year from next November will 1 rami fm. it. ' I have talked with a large number of Portland people, and when they understand thi object of the law they wjU not oppose, it, but will .favor it. I viBited Salem, Albany and f'jitumlllM .. .1 A. .1 ( vuivBHw, mm lonntt mo samp feeling there. But wo must hold meetings all up the Willamette valley-if we are to win. At Pondlaton. Tho Dalles, Ln Grande and Baker City I fiound a greater number nf nlilinra than in the valloy. and this was particularly true at Kakor. 1 think wo should by all meuns hold a meeting of our congress at Baker and get. 01 1 our best speakers. If we, tould have Col onel Wood tbae to go over tiie Kiuuiiu uh no, noes l leel sure we could turn, the tide in that city.
