MORE EXHIBITS
COMING IN
Telephone Exchange Hai a Fine
Display of Crook County
Product!.
The Journal has heen rather in
sixtent in its siM-als to the farm
ers of Crook county to bring in
samples of what they raise to he
placed on exhibition at 'the Tele
phone Kxchange and from there
will le sent to the county fairs.
We are plentted to note that our
farmer friends are taking to the
idea and are repMnding in goodly
numlers. The exhihit has reach
ed such proportions that it not
only excites the wonder of travel
ers, hut surprises even the stay-at-homes
in I'rincville who have hut
a vague idea of what is grown in
their own county.
The latest additions to the col
lection have been brought from
Mill creek. The grains and
grasses are from the farm of Will- j
iam Smith and are especially no
ticeable on account of size and va
riety. As Mr. Smith's pluce is one
of the oldetst in the county hav
ing leen continuously in cultiva
tion for thirty-seven years soil
exhaustion does not seem to be a
factor with which he has to con
tend The samples are all good.
William Stanton, who lives on
the same creek, has a fine grain
exhihit. Not only has he ood
grain, hut also a garden in which
were rained some prize-winners
that wiil be adorned with the blue
ribbon when the county fairs are
over. -lie has hops grown this
summer that measure twenty-six
feet, in height.
Mr. Summers, whose business
tikes him to different parts of the
county, assures us that a great
deal of interest is being taken bv a
large number of the residents of
Crook county in the coming fairs
to le held at Redmond and Prine
ville. The collection of exhibits
at his office will be entered at both
places.
Don is a Gold Miner.
The many friends of Don Steffa,
formerly editor of the Journal,
will be pleased to learn that on
August 2t, 1906, he was at Ketchi
kan, Alaska. In writing to S. M.
Bailey he says:
Dear Mart First time you hap
pen to think of it, roll up a few
copies of the Weekly Paralyzer
and boost them up to me. Want
to see what the old rag looks like
after being away for a couple of
months.
Will sit down some day when 1
get hold of a typewriter and tell
you all about the country which is
a very remarkable one, and tre
mendously big to say the least.
Have been as far north on the
wean as Skagaway, and took the
White Pass & Yukon railroad
there and went into the' interior
towards Dawson City. The coun
try as a whole is altogether too
wonderful 'or words.
Like the rest of the foolish ieo
plo who get here and contract the
mining fever your former side-kick
er has stumbled onto a gold claim
and a copper property. Expect to
go completely busted on either one
or the other.
Learned from Will Ford about
the Fourth of July games and the
pretty work that long right ap
pendage of yours did in the last
inning. I cheered away up here
even if it was a month after the
job was completed. Guess O'Neil
was there with the goods, too, and
I put in an extra whoop for him.
Remember me to all the boys.
Soberly, Don Steffa.
Hotel proprfetor (to guest at
breakfast) Did you enjoy the
flute-playing in the room next to
you last night?
Guest (savagely) Enjoy it? I
should think not. I spent half the
night pounding on the wall for the
fool to stop.
Proprietor Why, Puffer told
me that he played every piece he
knew four times, and the person
in the next room applauded after
every one!

Will Cut the Range Privilege.
"My recommendation to the de
partment will be to cut the range
privilege for sheep and cattle in
this poriion of the Blue Mountain
resei ve to fifty per cent of what it
has been this season, for the next
year or two at least," said D. B.
Sheller, superintendent of tbe re
serve system to the Sumpter
American representative last Sun
day, upon his return from a ride of
several weeks through the greater
portion of the vast area. "The
conditions at this time demon
strate that those now in the range
are going to run short of sufficient
forage to sustain their, flocks and
herds as they should be and keep
them in condition for the markets
or a long winter on hay. This
statement I give publicity in ad
vance of the official report, which
will reach owners much later, in
order that they may be reasonably
certain of what to expect and. gov
ern themselves accordingly.
"In my trip 1 found but a few
minor derelictions on the part of
the sheep or stockmen in crowding
upon prohibited watersheds. This,
no doubt, is largely due to the fact
that our rangers have been alert
and have not permitted the herd
ers to get within circumscribed
limits
"One thing that is taking up
much of my time and that of Mr.
Terrill, is the examination of ap
plications for patents to mining
claims within the reserve. The
regulations of the department are
becoming more stringent in this
matter continually and our inves
tigations and reports have neces
sarily got to be very thorough and
complete. Should this feature in
crease a man will have to be de
tailed to that duty especially next
season.
