showing that tufflclnnt provlilon In
the way of hay, pasturage and bolt
er, all of which ihould be met by

In the opinion of the directors nf
Nffi
the Bank of Prlnevllle. the future of: rr,,'evllle pacl"d ln lca nd ,now
the Ohoco Project with He 12.000 '" th "' srds of the car.and
acres of Irrigated lands, depond
very largely upon whether It can
be aettled by ranrhere who own from
forty to eighty acrea of land. It !
unreasonable to think at thla time
that any man can mflte a living by
ralalng alfalfa at the preaent prlcea.
We believe Irrigated land n the
Prnevlle territory la particularly well
adaptable to the dairy business.
How can a rancher fare better than
to have from five to twelve cowi and
receive a milk check each month
with which to pay hla grocery and
other expense billa.
The Bank of Prlnevllle la ready to
atand ahoulder to ahoulder with the
dairyman and aaeat him financially
to eecure cows providing of courae
the Ranks requlrementa can be met.
Arrangements have been made
with County Agent Tucker to select
the ('own. In company with professor
Fills of Oregon Agricultural College
who has pledged his services for the
enterprise. The cowa will be deliver
ed to the farmers at actual cost,
which will perhapa be from $85 to
1100.
Mr. Karnnpp aaya he la Interested
In seeing a large number of cows
In herda of five or six, placed during
the remaining six months of the year,
and believes that the venture Is ons
of the most Important ones that could
be undertaken for the farmers, and
he wlahes all who are Interested toj
call at the bank aa soon as possible
and sign applications for the cows
and bogs. i

rather perplexing problem con
fronts the sheep men who are trallng
to the Cascade mountains. It ap
pears that certain bands of sheep In
fested wfth scabies have crossed and
trailed over the range between
Powell Butte and Benjamin Lake,
making it Impossible for clean sheep
to get from the Prlnevllle section to
the Cascade mountains without cross
ing the Infested area unless they
trail through the lane by way of
Redmond. This means that the
sheep must be dipped under the sup
ervision of an Inspector before they
enter the - mountains, or else
take the road as mentioned. It is
understood that the sheep belonging
to S. W. Yancy, Ralph Proflly and
possibly T. H. Brennan, will be dipp

OREGON
PRINEVILLE TAKES
Last Sunday afternoon, the Prlne
vllle nine showed real class when
tbe team defeated Madras 8 to 1.
With Tetherow on tbe mound and
allowing only two hits, Prlneville's
bunch treated the local fans to Its
first victory on the home lot. Mad
ras won Its only score in tbe first
inning, and after that victory was
hopeless with half the team on Its
way to the bosoltal and the other
half none too optimistic as to when
it would be led to the slaughter. It
was an unlucky day for Madras.
The first man up to bat was bit by
the first ball delivered, and a short
time later another man was taken
out because of Injuries.
Now that Prlnevllle has won from
one of the best teams in Central Ore-1
gon, and also is assured of having j
lemerow pucn, considering mat ne
pitched a no-hit no run game against
Bend, the fans are taking keen in
terest ln the coming tournamnt and
the local team has won the support
of tbe fans who are looking forward
to a big showing against the visit
ing teams.

STREET IMPROVMENT
BEING MADE TODAY
Wednesday afternoon two of the
County trucks hauled gravel on the
main street, and Thursday morning
saw the adjoining property owners
lined up along the thoroughfare
busily raking the larger rocks to one
side where they could be kauled
away.
The work was done under the sup
ervision of C. W. Woodruff. At first
the plan was to put a substantial
surface on the road, but owing to
the expensiveness of this course, the
idea was abandoned for the present,
and only sufficient work to get the
street in shape tor the celebration
was all that was put on It.

P1IEVILLE4AKEVIEW
HIGHWAY IS LIKELY
According to the Oregoniafa this
morning, the state highway commis
sion will build a highway from the
mouth of Bear Creek, connecting
with the present Crooked River
highway, to Milllcan, connecting!
there with the Bend-Burns highway,
with a view of going south to Lake
view for an all year connection with
California points.
This includes the graveling of the
Crooked River highway' and the
commission states that it believes
such a connection would be an all
year road through the state to the
southern country.
Tbe commission is letting con
tracts for the construction of bridg
es across Mill Creek and Marks
Creek on the Ochooo highway.
This construction is progressing
rapidly, the grading on the east end
of the road being well advanced, and
the distance around the Ochoco res
ervoir is well opened up and much
of the way the highway is completed
ready for graveling.
This highway will make traffic
between Prineville and the Mitchell
county much easier, and will mean
much to the people of that com
munity and those in tbe east end of
the county, in addition to being a
valuable link ln the east and west
state highway.
