OREGON WONDERS TOLD Railroad Booklet Calls Attention of State's Beauties to Tourists Ovetfnn's outdoor wonders have been celebrated ever since the namej "Oreeon" has been spoken. The first ; explorers told of a land of great for ests, mighty rivers, shimmering, snow-capped peaks, clear blue lakes, fish-crowded streams, wild-game haunts, and infinite variety of sea shore, and broad, beautiful valleys made luxuriant in vegetation by. the mild climate. Since then, other won ders have been found, greater than those mentioned by the pioneers. In an effort to tell visitors to this Coast in 1915, bent on Seeing Amer ica First, where these beauties of Oregon are to be found, the Southern Pacific Company is distributing free a handsome booklet in calors called "Oregon-Outdoors.'1 The publication is in folder form so that it may be easily mailed to friends in the East or carried about in the. pocket The covers are in llillltfl!ll!lllilli!lil!!l!!!!l!l!i:!!!liil!l!l!l!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIO colors, printed in blue and red and black. The text occupies forty-six pages, illustrated by fifty-seven half tone reproductions from photographs, and supplemented by a map. The rose which Oregon"has made famous is featured in the decorative design. Beginning at Portland, the reader is carried around the Southern Pacif ic Electric loop lines in the Willa- mette Valley. .He visits the, heart of the Cascades and is shown the at tractions of the beaches at Tillamook, Newport and Coos Bay. A wide panel picture portrays Crater Lake. The Josephine County Caves, named by Joaquin Miller the "Marble Halls of Oregon," are likewise given prom inence. Throughout the booklet are sug gestions for hunters and sportsmen in general, hints as to where trout abound and wild game are plentiful. A digest of the fish and game laws is added for the benefit of visitors from other states. II. D. Olson, local agent of the Southern Pacific, has a supply of these' folders, and will be glad to give them to local people who may desire to send them to eastern friends interested in the attractions of the Oregon country. OREGON HENS LEAD "College Bred'' Fowls Make Wonder ful Record at Frisco Fair The sixth report of the world egg- laying contest at the Panama-Pacific Exposition shows that the 0. A. C." Leghorns led with 208 eggs and the crosses were second with 188. The Barred Rock -dropped back' one place in the race. For the term record at this, the middle point of the race, the Canada pen of Adams' White Wyandottes is still in the lead with 773 eggs, while the O. A. C. Leghorn1 are in second place and have all but overhauled their splendid competitors. Last month the Leghorns were 47 eggs behind their rivals, this month they are but five behind. The 0. A. C. crosses are third with 712 eggs, hav ing advanced from fifth place last month. The 0. A. C. Barred Rock are now fifth in the term records with C94. There are 60 pens in the contest. The lowest record is 127 eggs for the six months, made by a San Fran cisco flock. The 0. A. C. Leghorns and crosses are now ahead of . any other pens from the United States or England. The highest individual record is that of the New York Leghorn with 111 eggs for six months. Two 0. A. C. crosses are tied for second with 107 eggs each. The third highest is an 0. A C. Leghorn with 105 eggs, and another Oregon Leghorn is sixth with 95 eggs. ODD NAMES FOR CREEKS . Iowans Turn to Familiar Things to Find Titles for Streams That Iowa is a farming state is reflected in the names of many of the , streams that flow through it. First there is a Farm Creek, so that Farmers Creek is not out of place; then there is a Chicken Creek, a Duck Creek, a Gsose Creek, a number of Turkey creeks, as well as Pigeon Creeks There are Fox, Hawk, and Rat creeks to devour the domestic animals and some Crow creeks, while there is also a Fly Creek and Mosquito Creek to worry the sum mer boarders. Milk and Cold Water creeks are present, likewise a Hog Run and a Mud Creek, so that Bacon Creek is not strange. It is fitting that with a Bee Creek and a Bee ranch there should also be a Honey Creek. There are a couple of Cherry creeks, a CraVapple Creek, and plenty of Plum creeks, and for wild animals we have Bear, Beaver, SUSPENSION BRIDGE CORNER Buck, Crane, Deer, Doe, Elk, Otter, Panther, Raccoon, Skunk, and Wolf creeks. With .a Keg Creek there is a Whiskey Creek and a Whiskey Run Finally there is a Purgatory Creek. These names appear in a "Gaza tteer of Surface Waters of Iowa," by W. G. Hoyt and H. J. Ryan, just pub lished by the United States Geolog ical Survey as Water Supply Paper 345-1. This report may be obtained free of applying to the Director of the United States Geological Survey, Washington, X). C.

Delegates are direct ed first to -the White Temple, Cor ner 12th and Taylor Street, to regis ter and receive credentials. TIME TO CUT HAY "Cut hay in the' mornfng after the dew is off and rake into windrows as soon as the leaves are thoroughly wilted. Legumes (clover, alfalfa, etc.,) especially lose their leaves readily and should be cured in wind row and cocks and . not in the swath. Two to three days in cocks should cure clover hay enough for the mow. Be sure all outside mois ture (rain and dew) are off and lit tle danger will be experienced in mow burning, provided the crop was cut at the proper stage. You can't afford, to lose the leaves by swath curing. They represent a large part of the nutritive value of the hay." These are the views of J. E. Lar son, field crop Extension specialist of the Oregon Agricultural College, on the best time to cut hay. Home To Graduate Walter R.

TRY THIS ON YOUR HOG If He is Sick and Will Not Take Medi cine, Maybe This Will Help In the live-stock and dairy de partment of the current issue of Farm and Fireside a contributor tells of his difficulty in getting a sick hog tj take the medicine that was necessary. How he got out of his difficulty is desoiibed in the fol lowing extract taken from his ar ticle: "A neighbor looked over the fence and I appealed to him in despair. 'I wish I knew,' said I, 'how to give a. hog medicine against his will.' 'It's easy,' said the neighbor. Fix up your medicine and bring an old shoe.' "He cut some slits in the toe of the shoe, I held the hog and he stuckthe shoe -in its mouth. Mr. '.Porker squealed, chewed the shoe viciously, and when the medicine was poured in to it by my friend the hog swallowed it as if he had been drinking from the trough. "In three days the hog was well, and in three months he was $20 worth of pork. A trick worth knowing if one knows wjat ails the pig.'' WILL BE SHOWN AGAIN Kenney Log-splitter to be Demon strated at July 4th Celebration F. E. Kenney, whose demonstra tion of his log and cord-wood splitter was one of the features of Booster Day in the county seat last week, will be in Oregon City for the Moose cele bration on July 4, and will again dem onstrate this wonderful labor-saving device. Many who saw Mr. Kenney's hydraulic machine last, week were much impressed with its power and the ease of its operation, and went away from the demonstration deter mined to give orders for one. The machine needs but one man to operate it, quickly and readily splits heavy, weather-hardened logs; and will with equal ease root out stumps of even more than usual size. The machine is invaluable- for clearing land, and aside from its absolute safety, will pay for itself in the cost of powder that it saves. It should be seen by all owners of raw land and Iy farmers who cut their own fuel. SCHROEDER FINED One of Group Arrested for Violating Liquor Law Found Guilty When Hans Schroeder, Herman Mohnke, Carl Grossmiller and "Jer ry" Sandergard were arraigned be fore City Recorder Loder last week, following their release on bail on the charge of bringing liquor into the county seat, all but Schroeder were asquitted.' Schroeder was fined by the recorder. Carl Grossmiller was charged with having endeavored to block Chief Shaw's efforts to arrest the party while they were in an automobile, but this point was not pressed before the court. Mr. Grossmiller called the court's attention to the fact that while it was alleged that six bottles of beer were in the automobile, only one was introduced as evidence. PIONEER LAID AT REST Well-known Rural Mail Carrier Pass es Away After Years of Service E. M. Waldron, who was born near Oregon City 41 years ago, died at his home last Saturday evening from typhoid fever. Mr. Waldron was one of the first rural carriers to work out of the Oregon City post office, and for seven years handled Rural Route No. 1 with more than usual satisfaction. As a mark of respect and mourning the local post office was closed Tuesday during the fun eral, and members of the county seat postal force attended the services in a body. . Mr. Waldron was the son of pio neer Clackamas county parents, and had a host of friends throughout the county. He was a member of the Oddfellows and Woodmen of the World, both fraternal organizations participating in the funeral rites held over his body. He is survived by Mrs. E. J. Wal dron, his mother; and by his widow, two children, and the following broth ers: George W. and J. L. Waldron, of Oregon City, and H. A. Waldron, of Los Angeles; and five sisters, Ms. M. E. Harrington, of Gladstone; Mrs. Anna Sperry, of Linn county; Mrs. Gay Waldron, of Los Angeles; Mrs. Christania Barbur, of Oregon City, and Mrs. Jessie Hyatt, of Willamette. WHO PAYS THE PIPER? Untrammelled "Oregon Voter" De votes Issue to Jitneys and Rival Once again the Courier is going to give a free ad to C. C. Chapman and his "Oregon Voter." We have at hand number four of this glorious publication, and we discover that about 30 pages are devoted to roast ing the jitney, half a page is de voted to roasting the Portland "Spec tator," and the balance is taken up with political ads, quotations from the Oregon City Enterprise, a page ad for the "Voter," and some small ads of assorted variety. The price of this number is said to be ten cents. Bill Strandbourg, publicity agent for the P. R. L. & P. Co., jives us much more entertain ing anti-jitney news in his clever little weekly "Watt's Watt" and we don't have to pay anything for that. Hence we wonder at C. C. C.'s temer ity in charging ten cents fpr the same sort of stuff, only weaker. Regarding the "Spectator," we have it on reasonably good authority that the "Oregon Voter" is flaying Mr Hume of the Spetcator largely because a certain man who doesn't like Mr. Hume put up some of the funds with which the "Voter" was started. Maybe these funds have now run out, and that is why the anti-jitney campaign is taken on so strongly. SIZING IT UP Estacada Paper Solves Mystery of Olds-Risley Trouble Recently Among the Estacada visitors of last Saturday, were County Commis sioner Knight of Canby, C. W. Risley and Ed Olds of Oak Grove.. Olds and Risley were supposed to be at swords points, judging from the articles which have appeared from time to time about the injunctions and road troubles at the county seat, but if they ever were on other than friend ly terms, no sign of it was evident on their visit here, but they are sure good advertisers. (Estacada Pro gress.) Clackamas Man Recovers F. E. Williams, of Clackamas, who was injured while at work on February 19, has recovered and is again able to be out and around. As recompense for time lostHhrough his hurts he received nearly $G0 from the Woodmen accident association, of Lincoln, Nebraska. How are you fied for letter heads and envelopes ? Courier. MRS.
