provide for the sale of mature tim

revenue for the continuance of
reclamation work will not be
diminished. Under existing laws
the government is selling timber
from the forest reserves but thia
money goes into the federal treas

the demand for a law which will
authorize the sale of mature tim

the land to remain in the govern

that the destruction of the timber
will be properly controlled and
make the matter of reforestation of

" Ieiardinc thiH latest move on the
part of the company Mr. Drake said
! "When the P. B. I). Co. sold its
' interests to the I). I. & P. Co. it con-
veveil specific proiiertv recited in the
decl, including the Pilot Butte flume as
lu i constructed and right-of way from the
; liPfldgut which the P. I!, ("o. had
acquired from me over my pergonal
lands. Thin gave the ditch company
uo more right to invade or appropriate
my personal lands or property than
that of Mr. Staats or any other neigh
bor. They don't seem to appreciate
this t"t help themselves generally to
anything pertaining to me, when and
where they please. On my remonstra
ting 1 have been told to shut up or they
would put me out of business.
"When I obtained an injunction last
fall against this trespassing, they
denied under oath to the judge any in
tention of further trespftstiug. He dis
solved the injunction in part, where
upon they immediately rush in a force
of men with tools and machinery. I
evening uy inose who had as
sembled to enjoy the musical and
literary entertainment arranged
by the Ladies' Annex and the Rev.
A. Mitchell, pastor of the Pres
byterian church. Rev. Mitchell's
portion of the program was a
lecture on the subject of ''Court
ship and Marriage. The William
son quartette, composed of J. N.
Williamson, Mrs. J. H. Rosenberg,
and Mr. and Mr. CharleH M.
Elkins, was a feature of the eve
ning and their numbers were ac
corded hearty acclamation. The
artistic make-up of Mr. Elkins as
the Dutchman in the song, "The
County Fair." at the hands of Joe
Smelzer was alone well worth the
price of admission.
Rev. Mitchell's lecture was in
a vein of humorous satire. But
with it all he made some strong
impressions on the relations
which ought to exist in the home
and the requirements necessary on
the part of both the husband and
the wite tor the enjoyment ot a
happy wedded life. He summed
up briefly and said: A woman
. . .
wants work, dress and apprecia
tion. A man wants work, food
and appreciation. He recited
Dickens's "Dr. Marigold" illus
trating married life under some
conditions, and while his lecture
was withal an entertaining end
scholarly discourse, the only
criticism that could be offered is
that there was too much Dickens
and not enough Mitchell.
The program opened with a se
lection by the orchestra, "Daugh
ter of Love." The Williamson
quartette presented "The Auc
tioneer" and responded to an en
core. Mrs. A. C. Strange sang in
her sweet pure voice "When the
Roses Bloom" and responded to
the encore with "I Know a Lovely
Garden." Mrs. Carey W. Foster

May Change Timber Laws.
Congress is considering a change
in the existing timber laws, and
sometime during the present ses
eion the timber ana stone act is
likely to be repealed. In its place
a law will probably be enacted
authorizing the sale of public
timber at something like its real
value. The law as it stands is
considered unjust and vicious for
the reason that the amount of
timber on a claim or actual value
from location or other points of
advantage does not govern its
price. One hundred and sixty
acres of timber away up in the
Kocky Mountains costs just as
much as the valuable timber lands
of Oregon. The same price that
now prevails could be obtained
for the poor timber of some dis
tricta while the splendid forests of
Oregon would bring a price easily
double or triple that at which
claims are now being patented.
The money received from the
sale of timber lands is the main
source of revenue for the prosecu
tion of government reclamation
projects and for this reason West
ern men will not consent to a sim-
knap sang the solo "Dear Old
Uirl." The Williamson quartette
rendered "The County Fair" in a
manner that brought down the
house. During the program the
orchestra also played the March
twosteps "Yankiana,', "Yankee
Grit" and "Just at the Break of
Dawn."
The proceeds amounted to about
$60, which were divided between
Rev. Mitchell and the Ladies
Annex. The entertainment was
one of the best that has been given
in the city this season.
Bluerock Shoot.

Kditor Journal: It will niton be
time to order fruit tree for spring
planting. A few wordx concerning
varletie might lie appreciated by
the many new nettlers beginning to
build homes in our county. About
the most discouraging thing to have
is a tree which liears shyly, if at all,
while requiring as much attention
and occupying as much space as one
which never falls.
I have a small orchard at the
eastern end of Powell Butte which
has leeii (tearing over 15 years, dur
ing which time It has never failed to
produce some fruit and is often
heavily laden. Some varieties, how
ever, do much lietter than other.
Of summer apple the Tetonky Is
first to rliten, usually about the lat
of July; never fails to have fruit and
it a good suiiiiner apple in every re
spect. The next to ripen i the
Due-hen of Oldenburg, a good apple
and sure heavy bearer. Then fol
lows the Striped Astrachitn, a good
apple .and a sure tiearer with us.
We have the Fourth of July, a very
One apple, but a very light Itearer,
often failing entirely. Next in sea
son is the tJravensteln, not a heavy
hearer, but seldom failing entirely.
Following this is the Wealthy, a
splendid fall apple, heavy, regular
JieHrer of large and attractive fruit.
Tree a vigorous grower. The Rani-
bo is nest in season, seldom fails, but
not a heavy bearer as a rule and is
small and unattractive with us.
thouiru it keeps well often until
February.'
Of winter varieties the liest we
have is the Pewankee, a sure heavy
Itearer of good sized attractive fruit
which keei until late in winter.
This apple deserves more than pass
ing notice. It Is a splendid cooking
apple. If I were planting a com
mercial orchard this would lie the
principal variety. The Yellow New
ton Pippin is a shy liearer in our
orchard, though it is such -a fine
keeper we would not do without it
often keeping until summer apples
come again. Goldeu Kusset is a
light bearer, but seldom fails en
tirely and is worthy a place in the
orchard. Willow Twig is a light
irregular bearer, but a fine keeper.
The Blue Pearmain is also a very
light liearer with us, often falling
entirely.
Of Crab apples we -have Hysolp
Transcendent and Montreal Beauty
all regular bearers. The Hysolp is
our favorite. It-grows large ami is
a fine keeiter; bears "young and
never fails.
The above varieties planted where
they do well will keep a family sup
plied with apples the whole year,
Pears do well, never falling complete
ly. Plums do well, too. Brad
shaw Is our favorite. Prunes do
fairly well, seldom i'nil, but mv small
Most small fruits do well and
always bear except blackberries
onlv one variety, Evergreen, succeed
ing and it sometimes fivesses back
not protected In winter.
My advice would be to plant an
orchard no matter where you are
located. Put it where it can be
irrigated if possible, if not, mulch
heavily to hold the moisture duriug
dry weather. If you irrigate take
the water oft early enough to allow
the wood to harden and your trees
will stand the winter all right.
While this county will never rauk
with some other parts of the state
as a fruit country, we can and will
grow enough to supply tiie home
market.

On taking a look in the henhouse
Mr. Carlon was confronted by a

cat had killed and heaped up.
Every one of the 75 choice fowls

to sell the cat's hide for a sum

Killed Three Cougars.
George Miller and Ben Hel
frich, ofJ.amonta, were in town
Monday on their way home from a
trip to Pine Mountain. They re
port the snow about three and
one-half feet deep there.
The hoys killed three big
cougars, a bobcat and a coyote.
The cougars were all treed by a
diminutive black dog named Nig.
Nig is certainly entitled to a place
on the roll of honor for thus assist
ing in ridding the range of these
stock destroyers.
Candidates Getting Busy.
The political pot is beginning to
boil in real earnest in Crook
county but the only bubbles that
have yet arisen to the surface are
all branded "clerk" or "sheriff"
with one candidate for county
surveyor, while the seekejs after
political triumph have thus far
remained oblivious to the allure
ments offered by the offices of joint
representative, county commis
sioner, county treasurer and coro
ner, all of which must lie tilled at
the coming election. The ' only
additions that can be made to the
verified lit this week are the
names of W. F. Hammer, of Hay-
tack, who will endeavor to land
the democratic nomination for
clerk and Knox Huston who wants
the job of being county surveyor
on the same ticket. J. II. Haner
aspires to the republican nomina
tion for clerk, Sam Collins is cir
culating his petition for the nomi
nation as republican sheriff, while
Jake Stroud is going out after 'the
democratic nomination. These
are the only aspirants which can
be positively announced as candi
dates at this time.

Henry Carlon, who resides 25

at some length but as a high wind
was blowing he thought the dog
was disturbed on that account and
did not go out to ascertain the
cause. Next morning he arose at
about five o'clock and on going
out found his dog sitting quietly
by the broken glass window of the
henhouse. He thought this action
peculiar and opened the henhouse
door, when, a hugh wildcat leaped
onto his breast and hurled him to
