ope, mule deer and other game, but
no jiickrabbits nor snakes, fxcejd-
ng along the Deechuteg. J learned
that old settlers have a prejudice
against fishing in the Deschutes lor
the reason that there are occasion
al rattlesnakes and the nsherru&a
cannot her them rattle because of
the noise of the swift runnina
water.
Describing the Paulina region.
he said tbat there is a lake on the
top ef Paulina mountain supplied
by artesian flow. From the lake
rung a good sized "team, which
properly directed upon the plain
below might be valuable for irriga
tion. The surrounding country is
good for agricultural and stock
racing purposes.
Tbe Portland Journal of recent
date contained the following inter
esting account of a trip into this
country. It says:
"Jefferson Myers, with two com
panions has just made a 5UO-mile
trip into Central Oregon, teas of
a wonderful cave of ice in southern
Crook county from which settlers
get free ice of purest quality. The
supply is perpetual, new ice form
ing constantly as fast as the old is
taken out.
The existence of this ice cave has
long been known. The wagon road
leading to it from Hogg Past over
the Cascades to the Harney country
400 miles into the interior, is
marked on some sUte maps as
"Ice Cave road."
The cause of the wonderful for
mation is not known, at least there
is no record of scientific investiga
tion and analysis of it. There is
said to be a large deposit of some
kind of salt in the immediate vicin
ity. It is suggested that this might
be ammonia salts, which with cer
tain attendant conditions under
ground, might result in refrigera
tion of subterranean springs that
constantly drip into the cave. Mr.
Myers said:
"With a team and camping out
fit we left the railroad at Scio and
followed the old Willamette Valley
Military road over the Cascades.
We crossed the Deschutes at Bend
and it was here I heard of the
ice cave and determined to see it.
We took the road southeast, known
as 'ice cave road,' and eaeily found
the cave.
It is about 125 feet deep, and
descends on a slant into the earth.
At the bottom is a deposit of solid,
pure ice about 10 feet deep and 20x
20 feet in dimensions. The settlers
have placed poles down into it,
and they come there and cut off
400 or 500 pound chunks and skid
them out to wagons. I nibbled at
a chunk of ice and it is as fine as
any ice I ever saw. New ice forms
where the old ice has been taken
out
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF ACRES
OF GOOD LAND.
Discussing the trip into interior
Oregon, he said it amazed his
party to see hundreds of thousands
of acres of good land covered with
grass a foot high, and without set
tlers. In some parts of this region
neighbors are 20 miles apart. Vast
areas of government land are with
out settlers.
On the road out we stopped at
Millican's horse ranch, then struck
due southeast into the so-called
"desert" marked on Oregon maps,
This alleged desert country begins
about five miles southeast of Bend.
The elevation is 2500 to 3000 feet,
hundreds of thousands of acres are
covered with bunch grass a foot
high. The surface, while apparent
ly dry, has water under it and
good wells are struck at a depth of
from 14 to 20 feet. The wells we
examined had ample water supply
and was without alkali.
Only cattle and horses, and
few settlers, are found in this great
region. btockmen informed me
that there had not been in many
years a winter when they had to
feed their stock. I saw potatoes
growing eight inches high from
peelings thrown out in the back
yard. It is a stockmen's paradise
and naturally they do not tell of
the agricultural possibilities nor
encourage farmers to fill up the
country.
ABUNDANCE OF GAME.
There is an abundance of antel
PRINEVILLE MAKING WONDERFUL
PROGRESS.
We returned north via Bear
Creek road to Prineville. This city
has made wonderful progress. It
now has 1200 population and some
fine buildings. It has one of the
best commercial clubs and club
buildings in the state. The city
has a magnificent brick high
school building costing $30,000, a
stone hotel built at s cost of $30,
000, the First National bank has a
stone building worth $12,000, and
the county is building a $50,000
stone court house. There is a large
quarry of hard gray building stone
close to the city limits.
From Prineville we went down
the Crooked river 40 miles to the
Deschutes. Some of this country
is irrigated, and at places they are
cutting seven tons of alfalfa to the
acre. The elevation around Prine
ville is 2850 feet. We returned
westward via the Camp Polk road
in the foothills of the Cascades.
Here the Metoles river, a wonderful
stream, gushes out 100 feet wide
from under Black Butte, coming up
cold and pure from subterranean
regions unknown. The river
abounds with all kinds of trout.
"We went up Lake creek to Sut-
tle lake, a body of clear water about
three miles long and one mile wide,
full of trout. About half a mile
above Suttle lake we came to Blue
lake a body of blue water resembl
ing in color the blue of Crater lake.
Blue lake covers about 350 acres,
and is full of Dolly Varden trout.
It is supposed to be very deep.
This lake is about 20 miles south
of Mount Jefferson.
"About half way between Blue
lake and Mount Jefferson is located
Marion lake, a bodv of water well
known to numerous Portlanders.
We returned over the Cascades via
the upper Tollgate road, at an ele
vation of 5000 feet, and called at
Upper Soda and the Cascada
springs. A number ot campers are
staying along the route. Upper
Soda, 12 miles above Cascada, is
probably the best fishing and hunt
ing grounds west of the Cascade
summits. The region abounds with
bear, wildcat, blacktail and mule
deer, wolves and elk."
The party was away from Port
land 18 days. Most of the time
they camped out, and slept in the
open air. As a result of the trip
the president of the Lewis and
Clark commission has a nose the
color of bright red berries that grow
wild up in the mountains.
Big Sale of Izee Beef Cattle.
J. C. Lonergan, buyer Tor Frye-
Bruhn Co., of Seattle, last week
contracted of Izee cattleme 2500
head of 3-year-old steers, to be de
livered October 12, at Pendleton.
This is the largest band of 3-year-
old steers ever bought in the Izee
country, and at the price paid,
which is much higher than the
same grade of cattle brought last
year, means that the Izee cattle
growers will receive in the neigh
borhood of $100,000 for this band
of cattle.
The Izee cattle are already in
prime condition and will weigh out
heavy at the time of delivery.
Already several hundred head of
fat cows have been sold in Bear
valley and Izee and cattlemen gen
erally are jubilant over the pros
pects of the cattle industry. Blue
