ESTIMATES
FORWARDED
General Manager OT.rien, of the
Harriman line?, says the devonian
today, has forwarded estimates for
the construction of the fust section
of the Central Oregon railroad uj
the Deschutes river, from a connec
tion with the O. K. & N. at it
mouth. Profiles of the new line
and the probable cost were sent
forward to the Chicago headquar
ters of the Harriman ivsteni dur
ing the past wctk.
The estimates call for the ex
penditure of $4,000,000 for building
the first 100 miles of the Pescbutes
line. This will construct the road
as far south as Madras, tapping
the big Central Oregon plain that
is expected to furnish a vast traffic
during the coming few years.

Jim Norwood says the D. I. (i P.
Co. has given him a cistern which
he has set up on the bank of the
town lateral where it is handy to
fill. It is a stave tank painted red
and holds exactly one barrel when
in good order. The remark was
brought out by Carl Ehret telling
about his cement cistern. He en
larged the excavation for his tank
and now has a first class 50-barrel
cemented hole in the ground. Carl's
item was called out by last week's
note anent Mr. Muma's big cistern.
So we see how far our little candle
throws its beams, just like a good
deed in a naughty world or some
thing of the kind.

Wants Farmers
to Co-operate
By the suggestion of President
Roosevelt, the Country Lite Com
mission has a?ked the farmers of
the country to meet in their re
spective communities some time
before Saturday, December 5, to
discuss the questions which the
commission is studying and to
indicate their own ideas of what
are the most important subjects for
the commission to consider.
In a letter to the members of the
Country Life Commission the
President says the farmers should
feel "a sense of ownership in the
commission," and that he believes
the commission should get into the
closest possible touch with the
farmers. He urges the importance
of holding the meeting before con
gress adjourns prior to the Xmas
holidays, so that at the time con
gress reassembles, early in January
the commission may have reports
of the meetings in hand and may
be "in position to advise definitely
what should be done."
At this time President Roosevelt
adds two members to the commis
sion, one member from the South
and one member from the West,
Charles S. Barrett, of Union City,
Ga., and William A. Beard, of
Sacramento, Cal.
The President suggests as lead
ing topics for discussion:
i he efliciency of rural schools;
Farmers' organizations;
The question of farm labor;
The need of good roads;
Improved postal facilities;
Sanitary conditions on the farm.
Copies of the questions may be
secured by writing to the Commis
sion on Country Life, Washington,
D. C. The commission desires that
so far as possible a general sum
mary or estimate of the discus
sions in all the meeting places be
promptly sent to its oflice in Wash
ington, so that it may have the
benefit of all suggestions in pre
paring its report.
