The (among Hay Cret-k sheep ranch, located in Ktiitern Oit'Ron and one ol the largest and bent known luep ranches in the United Stated, has hoen forced out ot busi ness on account o! the Forestry Uureau'i policy ol conserving the forest renervog. J. O. Kd wards, owner ot the famous ranch of 27,000 acre, laid that ho had been forced to the wall by the Govern ment's policy and ho had decided to out up the big ranch and full it. Several years ago Mr. Edwards came to Oregon from Wyoming, where he had a range with 100,000 sheep, the largest in the country, lie selected Hay Cteck as ideal for a hecp country, sold his Wyoming interests and started the big business in Eastern Oregon. In lflOfi he had 40.000 head of linnn. which he wintered .on his 27 ,000-acre ranch and and which! he kept on tho range in the Government forest resorve in the summer months. That year the Forestry Bureau, in its policy ol conservation, cut Edwards' allowance of range to a territory sutlicient fpr onlv 24,000 sheep. Mr. Edwards sold a large number of sheep and continued. In 1908 cume another order for a 40 per cont cut, but this whs fought hard by Mr. Edwards, who had it modified to 25 per cent, and he waB permitted to continue with 17,000 head of sheep on the range. A fow drtys ago he received notice of another reduction of 30 per cent in his range allotment and now that he can givo range to only 12,250 head of sheep he has decided to retire from the bwsincss, assert ing that unless the sheep business is carried on a gigantic scale it can not be a success. "It is the Government's policy right through which has forced me out of the game," said Mr ." Edwards, at the Portland Hotel. "I cannot continue in business with this small bunch of sheep on the big ranch, and now all I can do is to sell out." Mr. Edwards believes that the Forestry Ilureau policy Is bad, not only for him but for the state and country at-large. It could have no other effect, he said, than to drive great industries, such as he had built up in Eastern Oregon, out of existence. He had created a ranch which had become famous the country over, was a model in every detail and one of the great producers of the state. There waB no expense to which he would not go to build up his line of sheep he said, and he imported rams costing thousands of dollars ' and V by systematic breeding produced a sheep which had wool from its nose to its hoofs, the only sheep of its kind in existence. ' Recently, in anticipation of the death of his business in Eastern Oregon, Mr. Edwards has been in vesting heavily in Portland real estate and in the last few months has made three purchases, aggre gating (145,000. One of these purchases he made last week, when he bought a quarter block on the corner of Grand avenue and Belmont street, for 135,000.
