In talking of the business
handled by the Oregon Trunk
ainre the opening of the road for
freight and pnsst-nger service
NovenilM-r first, the officials ex-
prrtuted themselves well satisfied
with the outlook, and were «•*-
|te«'ially enthusiastic over the
showing made at this station.
The Redmond station has taken
in more money for freight and
twaaenger receipts than any other
station on the line, and the
freight shipments to this i*»int
have lawn greater than ull tin-
other stations on the line put to­
gether.
As "one wedge drives another"
so continued publication of a real
«-state for sale ad will surely
bring a buyer although, usual­
ly. a very few publications are
sufficient.

R. C. Wygant, field assistant
to the desert land board, left
Salem last week for an inspec­
tion trip through Central Ore­
gon. during which time he will
go over and check up the work
of the Central Oregon Irrigation
company's project in this section.
It was as a result of Engineer
Wygant's investigations on this
project for the desert land board
that Manager J. Roseoe Howard
made the statement to the board
that Wygant had done more
harm in Central Oregon than ant
other two men in that, as Howard
claimed, he had made false and
misleading statements.
At the time these charges were
made, Wygant’s reports were
proven to be correct. This trip
is to check up the new work
which Manager Howard stated
he was doing. He will meet the
settlers of the Water User’s as­
sociations and talk to them in re­
Bazaar and Chicken
