LAST SESSION . This is the last session of the present county 000.1 a, Juu ilauiauu auu Commissioner Blumenstein retire with the satisfaction of knowing that during their administration the county indebted ness has been reduced thousands of dollars, something unknown in this coun try. Since .the county seat has been moved to La Grande all portions of the country are now interested in seeing the indebt edness reduced, which was not formerly the case. The large debt, the expense of another court house, the expense of moving were argument used by those opposed to a change, and they were the factors that prevented s removal many years before it was finally accomplished and the larger the debt the easier it was to prevent the possibility of a removal. The transition has taken place and now it is to the interest of every section of the county to tee the debt wiped out and it i being rapidly reduced. , , With Mr. Seldertas a holdover member of the Board, with the busines experience which County Judge-elect J. C. Henry will carry into the office and with the ex perience in county officers of Commission er elect Ben Brown the county will have a board that will always have the interest of the county at heart and it goes wi fl out saying that the present policy of debt reduction will be continued. It is a safe prediction that Union county will be entirely out of debt within the next ten years, large as it is, and in so doing the rate of taxation need not be so large as it has been in the past.

There orchards need spraying but it is useless while the daily showers prevail. The hay growers how., ever are delighted, but the ice and ice cream dealers are of the opinion that the country has a sufficiency of moisture and the country needs real warm, growing weather. land has been wihdrawn for forest re serves. Sales of timber are limited yet. but witl no doubt grow rapidly as the supply diminishes and price, rise. Ore gon's counties having the heaviest timber in reserves will probably reap a consid ers, b e annual revenue from this source. Grazing feee will be realized from the first year that the new h rovision goes into effect The minimum and maximum figures are not available, but the average number of sheep -hat will be permitted on reserves will probably be at the rate of one for each 2.5 acres, wmle cattle will be alloted at the rate of one beast for each, five or six acres. The Government's figures for tu nmtr grazing of sheep are five to eight cents, and 23 0 25 for cattle. If sheep rmy be -aken as a basis of estimate, at six cents a head, and 2.5 acres to one sheep, the rsve-iue fron 12.330,003 acre would be $28d,000 for the grezing privi lege. It cannot be said that nearly 1 2 000,000 acres will be grazed, so this basic figure is probably high. Under the 10 per cent provision, the state would get cut of this aggregate but $28,800, to be distributed among the many counties hav ing reserve land. Timber revenues will in all probability be much larger, especially west of the summit of the Cascades. Such returns '.'.':!! in z!! pr?bv'ify Honm a more im portant item of county revenue in the next decade. In the struggle for such concessions as this, the North members of Congress have cften found themselves practically alone. Senator Fulton has consistently striven for a larger percentage of timber and range receipts, but found that the struggle had to be pioneered among apathetic members whose states had hue cr no timber for the market and less grass, Under the provisions of the pending meas ure, he hopes that public sentiment will be quickened, until the division of receipts is placed on a basis of such share for the Government as actual expenses require, giving the residue to the counties where reserves are found. When the pending agricultural appro priation bill becomes law, if as at present framed, all proceeds of forest reserves, whether for sale of timber or grazing privileges, will be divided with counties in which the reserves are situated. The percentage agreed upon is 10, which will probably be finally adopted, this being of gross receipts. The effect in Oregon will be material, where approximate y 12.000.000 acres of I THE LA GRANDE NURSERY SHADE TREES Is one of my special ties. Delivery to be made on or after March 15.
