ter knowledge of tbe game. Tbey
were not able to gain consistently,
yet tbey plowed through the C. C.
II. 8. line repeatedly for good
gains.
Vend won tbe toss and elected to
defend the west goal. On tbe kick
off Capt, Myers drove the ball to
Bend'a 10-yard line. It lauded
iquarely In the arms of Vauder
pool, but be was downed almost
instantlr. Bend tried our center
and found It impregnable. Tbe
next play started around left end
but was fumbled. Lawrence Lister
recovered. C. C. II. 8. ball on
Bend'a 20-yard line. C. Lowther
circled Bend's left end for 5 yards.
K. Lister repeated the performance
on right end. lial McCallister tore
through centre for five more. C.
Lowther added three around left
end. On the next play tbe ball
was fumbled but rolled over the
goal line where Myers fell on it.
It should have been a touchdown
but the point was yielded and the
ball given to Bend on their 25
yard line. In the next three plays
Bend loot about five yards. C. C.
II. 8. ball on Bend's 20-yard line.
H. Lowthor negotiated ten yards
on quarter-back run. McCallister
added five through center and a
minute later added three more.
On the next play he carried the
ball over for tho first touchdown,
after juHt seven minutes of play.
Myers missed goal. The rest of
the quarter was played near the
center of the field, neither team
gaining any advantage. Score
Bend 0; C. C. II. S. 5 ,
The next quartor was slow,
neither team being able to gain.
At no time was either goal in
danger. It was during this period
that Myers got off his best punt of
the your, advancing the oval full
sixty yards into the enemy's terri
tory. Score at end of half, Bend,
0;C. C. H.S.,5.
During the interval between
halves Brewster infused a little
more "ginger" into tho warriors for
the Blue and Gold. And the half
started with a rush but tho oppos
ing team had doubtlessly been
given a dose of the same medicine
for their resistance was even more
stubborn. C. C. II. 8. lost on
downs near the center of the field.
At this point Kelley treated the
side lines to a real electrio Bhock
by Bkirting our right end with per
fect interference dashed away for
what looked to be a sure touch
down. R. Lowther slipped through
tbe interference and by a pretty
tackle downed the man on our 20-
yard line and saved the goal. It
was Bend's only chance to score.
On next two plays Bend failed to
gain, The third play was a punt

third quartar ended with little ad
vantage to either team. Score
Bend, 0; C. C. II. 8., 5.
The fourth quarter was decidedly
in favor of C. C. II. 8. The play
was varied and the attaok was
u.uch Girer. The plucky littie
team from Bend was bewildered by
the new and peculiar formations
and were swept off their feet by the
whirlwind attack.
Lowther started the period by
tearing off ten yards around left
end. McCallister performed a
similar stunt at the opposite end.
It. Lowther immediately added ten
at left. C. Lowther negotiated 30
yards on a forward pass, lie was

it is all that is claimed for it a
first-class instrument. The guar

Oregon is going to give more at
tention to land shows and exhibits
of products in the East than here
tofore. The truth has j net been
borne in upon industrial promot
ers that the best way to' interest
people in this country is to show
them what it will grow. The Tort
land Commercial Club has taken
up the plan with great enthusiasm
and raised $1650 in a short time.
The first work to be done along
this line will be in connection with
the Governor's special exhibit
train that will leave St. Paul the
last of this month. Oregon ex
hibits will fill part of one car.
Crook county products will be in
evidence among these exhibits.

mercial Club's exhibit will be
placed on the O.-W. R. & K ex
hibit train. In speaking to an
Oragonian reporter of the publicity
to be gained by these methods,
Reilly Atkinson, manager of the
Western Governors' special, who
was in Portland making arrange
ments to fill the Oregon car, said:
"We expect with this train to at
tract to the West for a period of at
least three weeks the attention of
the entire United States and a
part of Europe.1' "We have al
ready had in Eastern newspapers
over 2000 columns of free matter.
and many of the papers have
treated the subject editorially
We expect to show our exhibits to
thousands. The cities we pass
through have a combined popu
lation 0! over 12,500,000.
"We are purposely avoiding all
the big land shows for the sake of
attracting more attention to our
own exhibits. What we are after
is publicity for the Northwest and
we expect this trip to attract a vaat
amount of attention to our own
section of tbe country."
Portland's share of tbe $10,000
fund to be raised by tbe North
western State for tbe Governors'
special will be 12500, of which
11650 was raised in a canvass
among tbe business house of the
city.
Electric Road Men
in Prineville
8. B. Taylor and Lewi Girl
inger Jr., of Portland, arrived in
Prineville Tuesday to look into the
proposition of building an electric
road from Prineville to connect
with one or both of tbe steam
roads.
Neither .Mr. Taylor nor Girl-
inger Jr., will talk for publication
They came here to take a look at
the country first band, to see what
it would grow and to know di fi
nitely whether or not tbe people
wanted a road The matter of
population, tonnage, etc, was fur
nished them and they were shown
up the Ochoco and other tributary
valleys to Prineville.
Crook County's
Scalp Bounty
Crook county has paid out
18443.50 as scalp bounty on preda
tory animals in two years. The
law went into effect July 1, 1909,
and on July 1, 1911, the amount
paid out footed up tbe amount
given above. Tbe state must re'
imburee the county for one-half of
this sum.
Uounty Clerk Brown has given
us the following figures:
4415 coyotes at U-50 $6622 50
853 bobcats $2 00 1706 00
11 cougars $10 110 00
1 timber wolf $2 50 . 2 50
1 gray wolf Q 2 50 2 50
$8443 50
As the Oregon Game and Fish
Commission has announced its in
tention of asking the legislature to
increase the bounty on cougars,
lynxes, wolves and other preda
ceous animals it behooves the tax
payers of the county to get to
gether and give expression to their
opinion regarding the matter,
County Clerk Brown says that
there was no grumbling about the
price paid on the part of thos
claiming the scalp bounty.

CULVER ATTRACTS ATTENTION
Red Rock School District Turn
Out in Force to Meet
Train.
Every O.-W. R. & N official.
every agrcultural college lectur
er and every other individual
who accompanied the demon
stration train that returned from
tour of central Oregon last
Sunday is confident that the trip
will be fruitful of results.
The tour was a practical and
effective attempt to preach soil
conservation, crop rotations, in
tensive farming and livestock
raising to those portions of the
state that are either undevelop
ed or that have not progressed as
rapidly as other sections witk
equal opportunities. Thousands
of farmers heard the advice
either from the mouths of the
experts of the agricultural col
lege or had it impressed upon
them by viewing the exhibits on
the train.
The arrangements were about
as near perfect as one could wish
for. There were no hitches or
jars or accidents ol any kind.
The train was usually on time.
the meals were good, especially r
those served on the car. As to
the others it may not seem prop
er to single out any individual
case, but the dinner given by the
Commercial Club at Culver on a
notice of only a little more than
two hours, was a marvel for va
riety and tootbsomeness, reflect
ing great credit on Mrs. W. P.
Myers, of the Culver House,
where it was served.
But these things are but the
settings, the incidentals. The
train was sent out by the O.-W.
R. & N. Co. to do missionary
work. The expense to the com
pany was very great, for they
did nothing half way. The seeds
they gave away cost money, but
that was only a small item com
pared to the other costs. And
the whole question now is, was
the trip one , that will causa
enough people to adopt better
methods of farming to eventual
ly repay the company for the out
lay? There is no way to get at the
answer save by the interest
which was displayed by the peo
ple of the various sections vis
ited; but, taking this as a crite
rion, and comparing it with the
interest of the six former simi
lar trains sent out by the same
company, it is certain that some
thing has occurred to arouse the
people who came out to meet the
train, for never at a religious re
vival even was there a greater
desire for more knowledge evi
denced by the converts than that
shown by the farmers who lis
tened, to the lectures on vtbjs
trip.
It is a matter of general knowl
edge that the settlers and land
owners of the four counties vis
ited have traveled a rather rocky
road for the last three years.
That is no secret, and had not
ought to be. And no one knows
better than these men who have
suffered by short crops that
something must be done to
