Prineville, - - - - - - Oregon It is Worth Money to You i Metolius and Prineville R. R. Articles ol incorporation of the Metolius & Prineville Railroad company were filed with the secre tary of state last Friday, says a special to the Portland Journal. The capital stock of the new rail road corporation is fixed at $50, 000, and the principal office is named as Portland. The incorpo rators are Harrison Allen, G. C. Friebie and E. McCulloch. It is the object of the corporation as Bet forth in the articles, to build a railroad connecting Metolius with Prineville. Harrison Allen, an attorney of Portland, who is one of the incorpo rators of the Metolius & Prine ville Railroad company, said that the new corporation is not identi f fied in any way with the Hill or Harriman interests, but that it in a private corporation, planning to build a railroad from Metolius to Prineville. He said he waB not in position to say what kind of a road would be built, whether to be op erated by steam or electricity. "Our engineer has not yet re turned from the field." Baid Mr. Allen, "and I have nothing to give out for publication until I have ' conferred with him." Resolution of Appreciation. Owing to the foresight and un tiring effortu of County Superin tendent R. A. Ford, the training department of Crook County High School was established and has been maintained for the past two years by the Crook County High School Board, giving the prospec tive teachers of the county the op portunity of preparing themselves for their important profession. The course of study has been so practical and beneficial that in every way il has met the require ments under Senate Bill No. 1U1 just passed by the Oregon Legisla tive Assembly. This bill has ad vanced the educational standard of Oregon to the front rank in the march of progress, and we find lhat our department has carried us along with the vanguard. Therefore, we, the student teach ers in the training department of Crook County High School, take this means of expressing our ap preciation to Superintendent Ford, the Crook County High School Board and the patrons of the de partment. Be it further resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of the depart ment and a copy be sent to the Crook County Journal for publi cation. Signed, Nora Livingston, Wimu Nye, Ethel Ki.an.n, Gladys Doak, Maude Pottku, Theresa Bi.ndy, Ethel Moore. Card of Thanks. We wish to express our apprecia tion to friends and neighbors for their help and sympathy during the long illiieHH of our mother. JKTTI1C I'utman, D. If. PlJTMAN. Stock Perishing in Klamath County A special from Klamath Falls to the Journal says: "AVord has been received from several sections of the Klamath country that stock is suffering for want of feed. For the pa6t four weeks the ground has been covered with snow. Stock men have fed out all their bay and hundreds of head of cattle have been turned loose to shift for them selves. The cold weather is over, but it will take several days of thawing weather before the range will be so that stock can get enough to eat. In the lava beds, where several bands cf sheep are grazed through the winter, the snow has been more than a foot deep for the past two weeks. Several thousand head of sheep have already perished. The winter has not been ex ceptionally severe, but the heavy snows came just ahead of the freez ing weather. The hay crop was shorter than usual last year and combination of unfortunate circum stances has been a hard blow to a number of the stockmen of this section. Notice to Property Owners. All streets and al'eys in the city of Prineville vacant lots and rear ol busi ness places must be cleaned up and kept clean. Loose stock must he kept off the streets. A regular pound is be ing prepared and all loose stock will be confined in the future. The dog tax for 1911 is due and must be paid at once. All of these ordi nances will be inforced. A. J.

Grain and Roughage Feeding. Cows, sheep and iinhnuls thai chew the cud have four stoma --lis and a very perfect nrraligcmeiit for grinding feed. Grain should be fed xvitli rough age, as then it goes Into the first stom ach and will be re' lioued. If the grain is eaten alone It Is apt hi go to the third stomach and so miss the re- hew ing. To makes sure that the feed 1 thoroughly (hewed fcid it x-.iili rough age. The best xvay Is In cut the hay or straw and mix the grain fei d xvitli It. Then it will go through the whole grinding process.-North JMkotn Agri cultural College. Moct Proftable Market.
