Two New Additions
to Prineville
Prineville is to have two new ad
fl Uons ss toon at the surveying
and platting can be done. J. W.
lloone bought a 160-acre tract of J.
. Powell the first of the week, and
will plat the west forty which will
reach to within two blocks of the
water tank oi the P. L. & V. Co.,
on the heights north of the city,
and from there will lay to the east.
As soon as the deiuand justifies,
more o! this tract will be platted.
The land will be supplied with
water main?, etc., by the water
company as soon as there is a de
mand by the purchasers.
A. W. Urater is platting his
twenty-five acre tract northeast of
the city, and has made an advance
sale of fourteen lots, lie has ap
plications for ten more. This ad
dition will be known as ( Water's
Addition. The survey is well
along and will be completed this
week. This land and the tract
bought by J. V. loone will be sold
by the Henderson Investment
Company. Sales will begin as
soon as the surveys have been com
pleted on both of them.
The demand for town property
is increasing and people from out
side points have been writing and
inquiring about vacant lota in
Trineville. The supply has been
far less than the demand for some
time.
From 1105 to $150 per lot, ac
cording to distance out and loca
tion in block. Lots will be 40x112
and will conform to the main part
of the town as to streets and alleys.

Six more English Shire horses
from the Haycreek ranch were
bought bv local men the first of
the week. R. M. Powell bought
yearling mares that are as large as
many of the mature draft horses
in this country, paying $400 each
for them. M. R. Biggs bought two
young mares also, paying $800 for
the span aod a span of six-year-old
mares at $1500 for the two.
These are of the same stock and
general type of the mares bought a
few weeks ago by II. E. Rideout,
who paid $1500 for two, one of
which now has a colt which Mr.
Rideout values at $1000.
The bor?e Standard, which was
purchased by a company of Prine
ville men some time ago, comes
from the same farm and gives

vicinity practically all of the
English Shire horses formerly own
ed Jy these people. Two of the
mares went to Idaho, and one or
two to other parties. They are all
registered.

Portland last night in a private j
car for Condon, and will arrive in
Prinoville sometime during the
next tew days in automobiles.
Mr. O'Brien does not attach
much importance to his trip and
says that it does 'not mean any
thing in the way of railroad build-ing,-but
the fact that he is to cover
the same route led by the Hill
party recently, and the territory
that will soon be lapped by both
Hill and Ilarrim.in road, leads
the people to think that it is an
important trip.
The trip will lead from Condon to
Mayville, thence to Prineville and
over the stage road to. Burns.
From there the party may cross
the state to l.akeview and thence
north down the Pe.'chutes and to
The Dalles. The Commercial
Club will entertain the party dur
ing their stay in Prineville.
