MAY 25, IMA OKIPTION RATKs- ue Yor 1 00 It has just lately dawned upon us to say a word or two to the business man who does not carry an ad in his home paper or even subscribe for it. Suppose all men took this view, where would we get a look in? We believe all can afford and should, for the sake of pride, take their home I paper, and if in business carry an ad.

Judge Win. Miller, president of the Hums Commercial Club, hns just received it letter from Prof. 11. 1). Scudtlor of the Oregon Agricultural College in which ho says: I am back to the ofllco again very much overcrow tod with many delayed busim.iH matters but not too busy to recall with great pleasure our recent trip through Harney county. I am inking this occasion to express on behalf of tho institution I re present and of myself tho hear tiest thanks for the splendid support given by your Commer cial Club i.ud the citizens of Hums to our efforts to promoto tho agricultural development of your section of tho country. Tho representatives of tho Commer cial Club of Hums who accompa nied mo on tho recent trips through our county were of tho greatest servico in giving an ad vantageous backing to our work and in encouraging tho new as well as the old settlers to join in tho movement with a feeling of assurance that they would obtain practical results of great value. 1 do not hesitate to say that thc interest aroused this year in Har ney County in tho practico of better farming methods will do more towards bringing the lands of the great Harney region into production than all the develop ment work previously done nut together. While it is true that such development would mean everything to Hums yet it is equally true that tho rapid de velopment of tho Ilnrncy country cannot take placo without the earnest and united encourage ment of the Bums people. On this account I believe that tho Burns Commercial Club should bo congratulated on thc foresight and acumen as well as good feel ing displayed in their attitudo toward tho settlers in thefnr val leys and centers of thc county. 'I might add that it was not only the presence at our various meetings in tho different parts of tho county of such of your citizens as Mr. LJyrd, Mr. Leo nard, Mr. Donegan, Mr. Dalton, and others, but it was also tho active assistance given by Mr. Hanley and Mr. McKinney in furnishing their cars and ser vices that enabled us to reach bo many places and to do such effec tive work. "Again, let me express to the Club and thc citizens of Burns my Heartiest thanks lor the in terest, encouragement and active assistance given us, which means so much in making our work successful. "Harney County now has with out exception tho finest eouinned model demonstration frtrm in the United States. This together with tho spirit of appreciation and interest you have shown in tho work, cannot fail to bring you the best of results.""
