A trip to the railroad camps between Trout Creek and Madras, that portion not In conflict with the Oregon , Trunk, shows that construction work' is pro gressing steadily, although It seems somewhat slowly lo the residents of that section who are yet on tbe "anxious" seat on railroad matters. Twohy Dwyer have three camps In the vicinity of Porter Spring canyon, 10 miles north of Madras, and are making preparations to establish two more camps, one seven miles from this place and tbe other three miles from town at what Is called the "divide," where there is a stretch of heavy work, a cut of about 35 feet being necessary at this place to make a uniform grade. ' In Porter Springs canyon Contrac tor Dwyer has five or six crews at work where there are deep cuta, mostly rock work, while at another point In the canyon a heavy fill is al most completed, which in places Is over 10 feet high and about a quarter of a mile long. Mr. Dwyer says he needs drivers badly, and has a lot of teams "eating their beads off" be cause he has not men to take them out on the road.

I Roseburg' HKiHER Vlrr.T LA.Vd. ! Portland Journal. A rnofcmffcl Is on that directs attention to western Oregon farm lands. It is Illustrated in sales near Roseburg In the past few days. A farm of 314 acres was sold to a Kansas buyer for MO.O'tu. Another of 10 acres went to a Vir ginia man for a large consideration, but the price has not been made pub lic. A third of 320 acres was bought by the Overland Fruit and Development Company, of Boston, Mass.. for 135,000. The latter tract is to be set to apples and pears, and its purchase was made after looking over fruit areas in the state of Washington. The prices In all cases are at figures far above those which have been current in the state. That there Is a movement In which western Oregon farm lands are to generally go at higher figures seems confirmed by sales like the above in other parts of the section. The tremerd .us advance in the .Med ford fruit district and at Hood River are a part of the story. Prune lands in the vicinity of N'ewberg and in Marion county are held and not In frequently change hands at 1300 per acre. In other counties lands have recently changed bands at prices that a few years ago would have been con sidered extraordinary, if not impossi ble. The explanation of the movement seems to be the wide Interest throughout the Eastern states In fruit culture In Oregon. The fame of Oregon apples and pears, and the extraordinary prices realized from them has moved men of means to re flection. The magazines everywhere have devoted large attention to ex oloitation of the orchards by descrip tive articles and profuse illustrations. In the articles are frequently embod ied fascinating tales of profits made, and of the great advance in land values in such places as Medford and Hood River. Pears bringing as hUh as IS a box. apples running at t3. ind fruit orchards changing hands at Ji.owo and even J3.000 an acre fire he Eastern Imagination and Daint dreams of easy wealth. Perhaps they are exaggerated, but their effct is that In all parts of the East there are men who are looking westward with a view of orcharding In Oregon. and here and there one of them Is acquiring a farm at prices above the usual with a view of settlne It to apples and pears. What portion will fall and what succeed, and bow far the movement 111 go In stimulating land values is a problem for the future. The meteorological and soil condi'ions are most favorable for success, but apple and pear growing Is not an accident. Skill, expert knowledge and Industry must be applied or there will be failure. If all these are conscientiously invoked, success is certain, and upon the number of those who succeed will depend bow far the upward movement of the land prices will go.

Realizing the advantage of an as sured future timber supply, a num ber of railroads are adding to their forest holdings and managing their forest properties for the production of a sustained yield of cross-ties for their own roads. The success and economy of pre servative treatment now make it pos sible to use for cross-ties woods that are cheaper and more abundant than the woods of longer life. Hy their recent purchases of tracts of loblolly pine the railroads are showing their appreciation of this fact. The practice of forestry by the railroads Is especially significant, in that it includes, In addition to con servative management, the commer cial utilization of timbers of lower grade. In a number of caes plant ing is done, also with a view to tie production, though such planting is !osua"-v a subordinate part of the for- NEW IKRIGATtON ROOK FRKE "Well Irrigation for Small Farms."
