Surprised at Development Work A Salem special says: After traveling 1000 miles through Cen tral and Southern Oregon, half of the distance by automobile and stage. State Engineer John II. I. 'wia is back at the State Capitol and report that development work and advancement of C'ary set pro jects are a revelation to him. "During the past few year the development work baa been re markable," he assert. "At Prine ville they are expecting a big rush of settlers because of the recent opening of the road land grants and prospect are bright for a branch of the Oregon .Trunk up Crooked River. "At Laidlaw the indications jioint to a reorganization of the Colum bia Southern project and it is probable construction work will be resumed for the purpose of reclama tion of 30,000 acre of valuable land." "Irrigition development is caUB ing signal activity at Bend. In addition to this factor, timber, rail road construction and water power development are all opening a great era for that already prosper ous community. Lots that sold for nfit to nothing on the main street of the town year ago are now going at IfOCO. Many new houses are being erected and a great runh of settlers is expected. '"Fi rty miles south of Kend heavy machinery is being assem bled and construction work is begin ning on an irrigation project to watt r 30,000 acres. Development work here is in charge of the Dea chut s Land Company The main line of the Oregon Trunk will go directly through this project and the Xatron-Klamath line i to pass within a few hundred feet of the dam site in Crescent Lake, which supplies water for the project. La Pine h the townsite for this develop ment work and there is now talk of moving Roseland, the old town to La Pine so that it will be on the railroad. From La Pine already 'can he heard the sound ot blasting 'on the Nttrou-Klamath line, where work is being carried on over the ( mountain. Every blast is cheerful i news to the people of the IVschutes Shaniko Wool Prices , Not Satisfactory In the price paid at the latest wool sale in this state there was not much encouragement for the : sheepmen who for some weeks have j been holding back for a belter 'market, says the Telegram. At Shaniko a little more than half a million pounds of wool changed hand", and the prices ranged from 11 to 15 i cents. The high price for.the day was was paid by C. II. Green, represent ing Koshland Co , for the T. S. Hamilton clip of 51,000 pounds The general range of prices was materially under that of three weeks ago, when as high as 17 cents was paid for fancy wool. The sheepmen naturally are far from satisfied with the market development to date, and as a result it i aaid that approximately 1,000,000 pounds of wool still remain unsold in the i-hmiko warehouses. In the other wool centers of Eastern Oregon ware house holdings are aLo large. Conditions in the Boston wool market are reported as follows: "The wool market is still quiet, and with prices weak and Undirg lower. Until the extent of the demand for light-weight goods becomes known there is little ex pectation of improvement, and inttret is centered in the West, where the season is well advanced Idaho, some mills having been un usually heavy buyer. The terri tory wool have been secured this year on a scoured basis of about 53(S "w cenU for clothing and otK1 53 cents for medium and staple, (lies prices being about 15 em's under last year's figure. Growers in the fleece sections are showing more disposition to accept the low bids of dealers.
