    A Live Bunch
at Pringle Flats
Everyone for many miles around
Is planning to attend the big cele
bration at I'ringle FlaU on the
Fourth.
The lurge dancing pavilion ii
about completed. If the good
weather continues I'rlngle Flats will
we the largest crowd ever as
sembled In this part of Oregon,
i'ringle Flats hait always been a
center for the settlers and for
fifteen miles around people have
always come to anything doing.
The Warm Springs, of which
there are a number, were the one
thing which made possible the set
tlement of this locality and the fust
development that has taken place.
While In the rolling hills which sur
round the Warm Springs on the
north and east and partly on the
west water was available at a few
feet most any where but to the
south lies a vast level and open
country which Is easy to put in
cultivation, yet it is harder to get
water and In most canes the settlers
have resorted to drilling, but be
fore they could drill the Warm
Springs came in handy to furnish
what water was necessary for fam
ily use and livestock on the ranch
Tanks for hauling and cisterns for
storing the water were built: so
they manage until a well is drilled.
There is no question but that a
fine opportunity awaits some enter
prising merchant who will oinrn up
a store of general merchandise near
the Warm Hprings. A store with a
f 10,000 stock would not be any too
much to supply the demand that is
already here.
After July 1 the mail route will
be somewhat changed and improved.
It will run directly south on the
section lines from Held to Imperiul,
a distance of about 12 miles in a
straight line.
Sunday School was well attended
last Sunday and most every one
brought their dinner so they could
stay for the ball game in the after
noon. Mart Iiailcy of the Trine-

Roberts, Kaeh team tried to out
do the other in generosity and In
dozens of different ways managed
to present their supposed opponents
with runs and sometimes in large
bunches The pitchers of both
sides were treated near alike and
their service was suited to the
liking of the slugging batters. The
final tally showed the Pringle Flats
had presented the visitors with 27
runs, while Roberts could not quite
equal that, yet due credit must be
given them for handing over all
they had which amounted to 26
runs for Pringle Flats. Those' who
saw the game could better realize
the good intentions of both sides.
The Fourth of July game will be
with our neighbors Dry Lake at
Pringle Flats.

Irrigation Projects
Look Good to Brewer
J. W. Brewer, manager of the
farm land bureau of the Oregon
State Immigration Commisson, has
returned from a two-week trip of
inspection over the Umatilla irriga
tion project and a brief visit to the
Tumalo project. On the trip he
talked over conditions with 110
farmers and made a study of the
farming situation in all parts of the
entire project.
"I saw practically every farmer
who was at home," said Mr.
Brewer. "I put on old clothes and
went about the country disguised as
a hard-working man and as a result
I found the farmers more than
ready to tell me the facts. While
most of the country is planted in
orchards, many of which have not
yet come into bearing, the general
outlook is good, and it is probable
that an excellent crop of alfalfa
and the like will be harvested."
Guy E. Dobson, president of the
Redmond Bank of Commerce, r-ame
in with Mr. Brewer. He reports
that excellent conditions prevail on
the Tumalo project.
"The prospects indicate that the
alfalfa crop will average from three
to five tons an acre," he said,
"while the clover crop will make
about the same, and potatoes will
run from 80 to 300 bushels to the
acre, depending on the amount of
cultivation. The lands of the pro
ject where dry farming is carried
on will return an excellent crop of
wheat and other grains. Condi
tions in Kedmond reflect the coun
try's prosperity. While there were
30 or 40 vacant houses in Redmond
a year ago, there is not one now."

It Pays to Look Properous
We have many articles in our different departments which would add greatly to your
personal appearance. No matter what you pay, your selection is what counts. We are
showing many exclusive patterns in all lines. You always notice the clothing other
people wear? Well other people notice yours just the same. Many good opportuni
ties have been lost because of carelessness in personal appearance. Think it over.

on Wool About
All Cleaned
Up
Oregonian: The Oregon wool
market is more bare of supplies on
this date than it has been on August
1 in many years past. Everything
will have been sold and moved out
of the state by the middle of July.
In the past week buyers have
purchased 150,000 pounds at Con
don, Madras and scattered points-
There is now left in Eastern Ore
gon only . about 150,000 pounds.
Several buyers are in the Lakeview
section cleaning up the last of the
Southern Oregon wool. Unsold
stocks in the valley are estimated at
about 60,000 pounds.
Values are holding ud well,
prices paid in the last week being
about the same as those current in
the preceding fortnight.
In the East, firmness still prevails
and sales of Western wools are
made at prices favorable to dealers,
Another week of two will tell the
story, as by that time light-weight
goods will have opened. About 90
per cent of the territory clip is
now in second hands, and, naturally,
everything possible will be done to
sustain the market.
