Georgia during the week, people
have been killed and millions wash
ed away in the floods in Pensylvania,
Texas and other states, and all Eu

Truly there are worse places than
"the Wild West."

vertising a IGO-acre wheat ranch that
will be sold at public auction on the !
ground, on August 31 . The land will
be sold for cash to the highest bid
der, and is all tillable, some thirty
acres being already in cultivation.
This is a new method of selling land
and one that wiil no doubt be the
means of someone getting a cheap
farm, especially as the sale is for
cash,

J. E. STEWART & CO.
Annoucenient was made at Bend j
yesterday by the owners of the
Brooks-Scanlon Lumber Company,
that an immence mill will be built
by that company at Bend during the
next six months.
The Brooks-Scanlon mill is to be
iocated just across the river from
the Shevlin-Hixon plant which is be
ing rushed to competition, and is
to be in operation early in 1916.
The plans are for a mill that will
have a capacity of five million feet
of lumber per year, and will employ
500 men as a regular force. The
Brooks-Scanlon company now own
30,000 acres of timber lands
in the territory tributary to Bend,
and the Shevlin-Hixon company own
a total of 84,000 acres. While the
exact result of this development upr
on the future of Bend is as yet
problemetical, the increase in popu
lation is variously estimated at front
4000 to 6000 people.
With a total of 7639 votes cast
for governor in 1914, in Crook
County, about a third of which were
cut off at the same election in Jeff
erson, leaving probably some 5000
votes in old Crook County, it is but
natural that Prineville should specu
late upon the result of the election
which will be held in 1916, some
eight or ten months after these mills
are Uotn in operation, there is
one fact that has been demonstrated
in the past, and that cannot be over
looked at this time, and that is that
the Bend vote will go in a solid block
for the things that Bend wants.

Congressman "Nick"
Sinnott in Prineville
Hon. N. J. Sinnott, congressman
from this district, was in Prineville
yesterday evening and today on a
tour of his district. He was taken
over the country lying north of Prine
ville, which the reclaimation service
have been considering as an irriga
tion poject.
The Congressman was impressed
with the small amount of waste land
in the district, and also commented
upon the crops that are growing on
the lands already irrigated.
He is making a tour over the dis
trict in his own car, and says that
his district is larger than any state
east of the Mississippi.
He left today for the Tumalo pro
ject, and will proceed from there
south to the state line.

WHAT CATARRH IS
It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
sften indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
amse by enriching your blood with the
ril-food in Scott's Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and a building-tonic, free
Erouialcoholoranyhannfuldrugs. Tryit.
