Oold SUU Lures.
The Bohemia mining district is
within the Umpqua forests. Show
ing bow the lure of gold holds the
prospector until the last, the only
persons we met on the trails during
the entire trip were J. L. Brogan,
well known in the district, also a
newspaper w riter of some note,
and his companion. H al Schultz.
University of Iowa geology student.
W ith packs on their backs they
were picking their own trail to City
creek, where Brogan wished to dig
a little at several spots where he
had seen “color” on a former trip.
Animals Have Corn on Cob.
During this trip we saw some
thing that none of the forest men
had seen before. At a w ater hole a
large quantity of green cones from
the white fir had been laid sys
tem atically in the moist d irt as if
to soften. Evidently the animal or
animals responsible had visited
their cache from time to time to
make a meal, for the outside of
some of the cones had been eaten
o ff in about the same manner that
humans eat com from the cob.
Great Forests Are New.
Indicative of how the Indians, be
fore the white man came, kept the
mountains burned off. were the
large areas in which there were
no trees older than probably 75
years. W hole mountains have been

Astonishing to me was the quantity
of white and sugar pine in what we
have considered an almost exclu
sively fir region. The new growth
of fir and pine is such as to indi
cate that none now living w ill ever
see the forests of this section de
pleted. In our short trip I saw m il
lions of new trees that w ill be
merchantable timber during the
life of many now living, and the
care of the forest service assures
their having an opportunity to
make their growth
“Deeepholla"
I must not forget the steed upon
whoee rumble seat I made my trip.
He was the gift of Fireman Dave
W hitley, he of pulchritude and
multi-Jointed verbiage. Dave told
me the horse s name was Dessph
olla,"* which was the name of the
prancing charger of Alexander the
Great. I never met Alexander, but
from what I have heard of him I
am sure he was too fast a boy for
this kind of a horse. No amount of
back seat driving could urge him
to a speed in excess of two miles
an hour. He kept his four-wheel
brakes constantly set. His dignity
was offended when we made a pack
amimad of him and hitched him in
place of the mule upon which I
completed the trip with consider
able more speed. A mule may be
a humble beast, but he certainly
knows his trails and how to get
over them on high.
I should make mention of my
exhllaratlng experience with yellow
Jackets, but a complete report
would require too much space,
about as much space as I put be
tween me and the little fellows that
sit down so hard.
