State Food and Dairy
Commissioner Here
J. D. Mickle, state food and
dairy commissioner, is in Prineville
today on an inspection tour. He is
accompanied by his deputy, L. B.
Ziemer. Mr. Ziemer installed the
first creamery in Prineville several
years ago.
The gentlemen are making a
hurried trip through the country
just to get a lineup on conditions
in this section and a little later on
there will be a man here to make a
thorough inspection. At that time
every dairy, whether composed of
one cow or 50 cows, will be in
spected. Not only dairies, will be
looked after, but all eating houses,
butcher shops, bakeries, slaughter
houses, etc. Better get busy and
clean up before this second install
ment of inspectors arrive or you
may have to close your places of
business not by choice but upon re
quest. We understand the com
missioner condemned one place this
morning. A word to the wise is
sufficient.

Sharp Jr., Mr. and Mrs. Henry

Margaret Mclntyre
Held to Grand Jury
Margaret Mclntyre. who was ar
rested at Klamath Falls last week
on a charge of obtaining money by
false pretenses preferred against
her by A. W. White, waived exami
nation before Justice of the Peace
Bowman Monday and was held to
the grand jury under a 1300 bond,
which so far she has been unable to
give.
A MISTAKEN IDEA
There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishment in Scott's
Emulsion is eminently better, but refrain
from taking it because they ear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
This isa mistaken idea, because Scott's
Emulsion first strengthens the body before
making flesh. Its blood-forming proper
ties aid nature to throw off sickness by
building health from its very source, and
flesh is formed only by its continued use,
Avoid alcoholic substitutes for SCOTT'S.
State Engineer John H. Lewis
accompanied by Engineer Whistler
of the government service, was in
Prineville Tuesday for the purpose
of inspecting Carey Act and state
irrigation works in Crook county
Mr. Lewis while here reiterated his
refusal to certify the lists of the
Central Oregon Irrigation Com
pany s segregation until it was
demonstrated that the canals and
ditches of that company would
carry enough water to Irrigate all
the land under the segregation,
Mr. Lewis said that 70 per cent of
the water taken from the Deschutes
at the intake of the Pilot Butte
canal was wasted on account of the
poor construction of the canals.
Mr. Whistler, also said that the
government and state would make
estimates within the next few
months for a project on the Upper
Ochoco and Upper Crooked river,
having in view the storage, of water
during the winter for the irrigation
of the bench lands and high lands
in eastern Crook county. Surveyors
are to begin work soon, according
to Mr. Whistler.

Installs Telephone at
Divide Ranger Station
George Summers was in town the
first of the week from Divide
ranger station where he has just
installed a telephone for the for
estry department. This is for the
purpose of giving and receiving in
formation of fires in the Ochoco
reserve. Mr. Summers says the
rangers have been busy cleaning
out old trails and making new trails
and roads until it is now possible to
go by team to the summit of the
mountain where there are fine
springs and camping grounds.
Ester Foster Cuts
Fingers With Ax
While playing with an ax at the
Foster camp at Cold Springs ranger
station last Friday, Ester Foster
had the misfortune to cut the end
of her right thumb off and cut the
first finger at the second joint into
the bone. They brought her to
Prineville the same evening and Dr.
Rosenberg dressed the wounds and
the little girl is reported as getting
along nicely.
You need the Journal, $1,50 a year
tAery town, wnether large or
small, needs and should have an
abundance of public parka, shade
trees and beauty spots where the
people may gather for recreation In
the evening, for a breath of fresh
air and for rest and strength for
the duties of the day to come. This
need is emphasized now that the hot
weather is at hand. Every citizen
can help make this town brighter
and more attractive by putting out
and cultivating shade trees and by
assisting to secure and maintain
public parks and beauty spots.
One may Imagine, for example,
what a transformation could be
effected in this town if every win
. i .
aow on its Dusmess streets were
occupied by a flower box filled with
beautiful flowering plants. Yet the
thought need not remain wholly im
aginative, for at a comparatively
small cost to each individual mer
chant such a transformation could
be effected- Many of the largest
stores and hotels of the great cities
have decorated their windows in
this way. An example thus set by
the merchants doubtless would be
followed by many citizens in the
decorating of their residences, and
in a few years our town would be
come known far and wide for the
beauty of its homes and places of
business.
