FAIR GROUNDS PURCHASE IS
UP TO PEOPLE
The question of Ihe purchase o f the
Laue county fair grounds by the eoun
ty will be put up to the voters at the
May primary election this year. At a
meeting of the fair board Tuesday a f­
ternoon n eommittee consisting of
George VV. Taylor, A. K. dray, W.
Yoran, K. A. McCormick and VV. A.
Ayres was appointed to initiate a pc
tition to place the question upon the
bullot.
The Lane County Fair association
has an option on the pnqierty, which
is owned by the Lain* County Agrieul
tuml Koeiety, at $20,(KM). This is the
luHt year h i which an election would
provide the necessary means of decid
mg this question by vote, ns tin* option
expires on December 31, 1023.
It is figured by members of the fair
assoeiution that the improvements on
the grounds total more than $10,000
while the tract, consisting of (58 acres
of land, lying partly within the city
limits of Eugene, is itself worth more
than that sum and could not be pur
chased for $20,000 if placed on the
market.
The matter of the purchase of tin*
grounds by the county has been ugi
tated for a number of years and
grange^ and other organizations have
gone on record as favoring it.
When the fair grounds were first
laid o ff the agricultural society bought
the entire Huddleston addition, o f
which the fair tract was a part, and
sold o ff the lots in the other portion
ot the addition for enough to pay for
the entire tract. The fair association
lias been using the grounds ever since
under lease.

TOT THINKS SOMETHING
WRONG WHEN WINDOW
SEAT SMOKES
The little daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. A. O. Williams thought some
thing must be wrong when smoke
was seen issuing from under the
window seat of the 8. R. Brand
bungalow on Washington avenue,
which the Williams family occupy.
Hhi1 so notified her mother and this
fact probably saved the house from
considerable damage by fire Satur­
day afternoon.
Mrs. Williams, who wrns ill, was
unable to locate the origin of th •
smoke, so she called the owner of
i hr house who happened to be at
home sick with a cold, and he found
that a supporting sill of the floor
had been run under the fireplace
when the house was built and that
the wood had been set afire by the
heat from the fireplace. The fire
had only smouldered, because of
hick of draft, and was soon ex­
tinguished, but half the sill had
been consumed and had the fire
occurred at night the results might
have beer more serious.
WOLVES KILLING OFF DEER
SAYS A. E. SALLEE
Olvea Suggested Remedy for Getting
Rid of Predatory Animals Do­
ing Exterminating.
I nless some protective measures are
taken, deer in the June mountain coun­
try will be exterminated by black
wolves, which seem to have colonized
there and to have killed o ff practically
every deer in that section, according
to A. E. Hal lee, of Star, who has just
returned from u trip to that section,
where he hojted to got sonic furs. He
was disappointed in his quest, howeverv
uh thi* only signs he saw of any animal
except wolves were dead carcasses of
deer and the tracks of deer with
wolves in pursuit. He got a glimpse
of one wolf but saw no others, al­
though he did see where n dozen or
more had camped at a natural deer
stand.
The wolves are too wily for traps,
but Mr. Sallee believes that with per
mission to poison the dead deer car
cusses the country could soon be rid
of them. It is his opinion that no oth
er animals exist there to be injured by
the poisoning. He found no signs of
martens, lynxes or cats, which were
plentiful upon a trip there six years
before.
A month before his recent trip, Mr.
Sallee states that deer were so plen­
tiful around June mountain that it
seemed as if the entire deer population
of Inline county had moved in there for
winter feeding. Now that they have
been killed o ff he believes the wolves
will move to another feeding ground.
He believes that dozens of deer are
killed by wolves and cougars to one
by hunters.
Mr. Sallee states that it was report­
ed that he was killing deer for trap
bait, but that such was not the case,
that plenty of bait was to be had
without killing it and that deer meat
is poor bait at best. He says he would
be glad to take a game warden a few
miles away from a railway and show'
him what is exterminating the deer
and suggest measures for their protec­
tion that would prove far more effi
cncious than the fitfu l attempt to
catch the few who “ dog’ ’ deer.
Records Broken in Construction of
W a lte r W o o d a rd Eight M ile F lume
U niqu e P o w e r P la n t Prepares Timber by Day
and Carries Men to and From Their Labors
The completion of the Walter Wood
ard flume from the mill eight miles out
on Coast fork to tli » location of the
docks on the old D. P. Burton place at
Latham, just west of the school, has
just been celebrated. This piece of
work is the largest of its kind ever
attempted in this section and probably
is one o f the largest anywhere.
The right of way over 19 tracts was
secured within 30 days without a law'
suit of any kind. The engineering con­
sumed another 30 days and the actual
construction work, in charge of S. L.
Godard, took five months.
The supports of the flume are of
cedar.
The trough is V shaped and
has 36-inch sides of two-inch fir, rip
rapped the entier length, with toe
board (single plank walk) and tele­
phone line the entire distance. It has
a capacity of 600,000 feet daily. The
terminal flume is box shape, eight feet
wide with a depth from 32 inches to
5(5 inches. At the spillway an elevator
will be installed to carry tin* lumber to
the docks.
The lumber for the flume was trans­
ported in the flume itself, being sent
out in 80-foot sections tied in bundles,
after having been cut to exact lengths
at a Ford power plant at the mill
which which was something of a curi­
osity. Every piece arrived where it
was to be used ready to be nailed to
get her and a pattern w as used to fa ­
cilitate the putting together of the
supports, the main trough fitting into
the support without the use of a pat­
tern. A “ wampus” was used to dam
the flume, this being moved as each
MO foot section was completed.
Jr addition to the flume itself, three
bridges were constructed, two over the
Coast fork to carry the flume and one
across the dam on the Lackey place;
17 others were built over county roads
and private roads and eight viaducts
were built to permit roads to run under
the flume.
The flume itself used a million feet
of lumber, a half million went into
the bridges and 100,000 feet will go
into the docks. Nails used totaled 325
kegs.

While it is not yet certain, it is

timber will be gotten out in the rough

saws, resaws, planer and dry kiln will
be established at the Latham terminal.
The Southern Pacific will have a side­
track and spur completed by February
10 .
The Ford power plant used to cut
the timbers to length before being sent
out on the job was made by backing
the rear wheels of the car upon two
drive wheels fastened to a shaft, upon
which was also fastened the drive
pulley which operated the saw. The
cur was fastened in position and the
harder it tried to make progress ahead
the faster it ran the saw. At the end
of the day it was taken out of the
stall and used to transport the work­
men home.
The completion of the flume was
celebrated with a banquet Friday eve­
ning last at Hotel Bartell, at which
workmen and their ladies, 24 in all,
were present. The principal stunt of
the entertainment program was the
presentation o f a distinguished service
medal to C. N. W olff, the “ wampus”
man, who did not miss a day on the
job.____________________________________

The absorption of ratgs on the Ore­
gon Pacific A Eastern railway by the
Southern Pacific will become effective
February 14, according to word from
the railway received by the chamber of
commerce.
This absorption of rates applies only
on transcontinental shipments to points
east o f Ogden. Mills on the Oregon
Pacific A Eastern will be granted the
same rates into such territory as mills
located in the city on the main line.
This absorption fo rates will be of
considerable assistance to mills on the
O. P. A E., but as it applies only to
shipments to eastern territory, while
the larger market for this section is in
California, it is thought that this ad­
vantage alone is not enough to cause
large mills to locate at the source of
the timber supply rather than in the
city.

ODD PHENOMENON OF 79
YEARS DISCOVERED BY
JOHN TRUNNELL
John Trunnell, who recently oh
served his seventy ninth birthday
anniversary found that it came upon
the same day of the week as that
upon which he w'as born and volun­
teers the information that all those
who were born 79 years ago will
find the same to be true in their
cases. He volunteers the further in­
formation that such will be found
to he the case every 79 years and
advises those having birthdays to
keep a record and chock up every
79 years and see if he is not telling
the truth.
COTTAGE GROVE ALWAYS
DIFFERENT FROM ANY
OTHER PLACE
Cottiigc Grove seldom does uny-
thing in the way any other pluco
does it and, of course, the weather
here never goes to the extremes
that it does anywhere else, which
may be the reason that there was
no silver thaw here Monday, as
there was in other cities. Eugene
enjoyed the spectacle and Cottage
Urove escaped only by a difference
of a few degrees in temperature.
This city has never had a so-called
silver thaw that did any damage.
LUMBER DISTRIBUTES HALF
MILLION IN WAGES
Production and Wages for 1921 Were
Low Compared to Few Years
Immediately Preceding.
The lumber business is so much a
part of the everyday life of residents
of this section that the amount of
money it brings here for distribution
each year is given little consideration.
A rough estimate of the production
for 1921 places it at fifty million feet,
which probably is quite conservative.
The same rough estimate places the
cost of production at about three-
quarters of a million dollars and the
amount spent for labor at half a mil
lion dollars.
The money spent here for lumber is
practically all outside money. But a
very small part of the total is sold
locally.
The amount which the lumber busi­
ness brought here last year is much
lower than during the few years im
mediately
preceding,
duo to lower
prices received for lumber, due to
lower wages and to the fact that the
Western Lumber A Export company’s
mill, one of the largest, did not o(M*rate
for five months, while tin* production
of many of the pony mills was almost
nothing.
Prospects for
1922 seem much
brighter. Foreign orders seem to be
holding strong and the building pro­
gram of the country, long delayed by
high prices of labor and material,
seems about to break. Moderate op
timisni is felt by the lumber operators.
WAR COST GREATER THAN
HIGHER EDUCATION
Staggering figures showing that the
cost of higher education of the country
could be carried on with the money
spent for wars and armament upon a
much greater scale than it now' is were
uresented by Professor Roland M. Mil
Ter, of the University of Oregon, in
his address at the Presbyterian church
Sunday evening on “ Some Economic
Phases of the Disarmament Question.”
The decrease of productive effort on
the part of those engaged in destruc­
tive warfare was shown to reach an
even higher staggering total. lie pre­

ALL GATHER TO DEDICATE
LORANE SCHOOL
Moat Significant Gathering Ever Held
in This Section and Bounti­
ful Dinner Served.
Probably no community gathering
ever held in this section has been ot
greater significance than the one held
at Lornne Friday last when the $13,000
high school building there was dedi
cuted. Thu residents of the Lornne
country were present in force, a del
egation of 14 was there from Cottage
Grove and others present were Alfred
Powers, o f the University of Oregon
extension department, County Hu per
intendent E. J. Moore, Assistant Super­
intendent Swan and Secretary Chad­
wick, of the Eugene chamber of com
merce. The total attendance was about
350.
The program started in the forenoon
but the Cottage Grove delegation tuned
their arrival at the time the tables
were set for one of the most bountiful
spreads that ever tempted inner man.
It had been arranged by a committee
o f women of the school district of the
Lornne section.
All those present from Eugene were
on the program and those from here
who made talks were Mayor Knowles,
Elbert Bede and Secretary Miller, ot
the chamber of commerce. Miss Myrtle
Potts and Miss Lucile Davidson, of
this city, each sang solos and both
were heartily encored. Mrs. Pearne
Crow, o f Lorane, gave a splendid read­
ing and was encored. Almond Hemen-
way, of Silk Creek, gave a humorous
reading and was vociferously encored
Mrs. Claud Schrack and Mrs. Crow
gave a piano duet. The teacher and
pupils from the Lone Cedar district
livened the program with their yell
program. The demure little 90 pound
teacher of that district has about 300
pupils of pep.
The high school building is one
which a few years ago would have been
thought adequate for Cottage Grove
and is a model union high school build­
ing, one of the best of its kind in the
state. It has a 40x00 combined assem­
bly hall and gymnasium. It is equipped
with «i modern heating and water sys­
tem, shower baths and ample facilities
in the way of class rooms and lava­
tories.
PLEASANT HILL TEAMS ARE
TAKEN INTO CAMP
One Set of Games Played Here and
Other on Home Floor of the
Defeated Teams.
Cottage Grove’s champion basketball
teams continued their winning streak
Friday and Saturday by winning on
both days from the Pleasant llill teams,
which had not been defeated before
this season. The Friday games were
played here, the girls winning 30 to 9
and the boys 37 to 15. The Saturday
games were played at Pleasant Hill,
the grils winning 22 to 21 and the
boys winning 30 to 24.
In the latter game Roy Heck sus­
tained an accidental blow on the back
of the neck and was so seriously in­
jured that he was taken to a Eugene
hospital. He was brought home Sunday
and is thought little the worse fur tin*
experience, although he has not fully
recovered and may not get into the
game again this season.
Both teams go to Roseburg tonight.
BEN SCOVELL, DOUGHBOY
EN TE R TAIN E R . IS COMING

Henry Irving, in presenting Shake
spearean plays and will lecture Mon
day evening to high school students
who are studying Shakespeare.
Mr. Scovell was one of the entertain­

At a recent entertainment which Mr.
Scovell gave in San Francisco 10,001)
people crowded into the civic audito
