Resources Need Exploitation
"I want to see the Exposition man
agement issue a primer yi the re
sources of Oregon, as they so rleWv
deserve. This primer should be at
tributed broadcast. The railroads win
help you m this respect. The child
ren and school teachers need t c
know more of Oregon's opportuities .
more of its history; more of the ro
mance and adventure of thi great
Northwest. The American toursts
Hock to Europe for less attraction
than is afforded in Oregon. The reason-
for this is the absence cf better
knowledge and the scarcity of accom
odations. When one seeks to make a
trip from some port along the Atlant
ic ccast, he lands automatically on
board a liner bound for Europe. This,
because of tjhe convenience afforded.
He does not need to make half tii'3
preparation for a European trip as
is necessary to come 'Out where thf
West begins.' Everything - required
from a tooth brush to a hofc bath is
provided on the modern liner. Thosu
unacquainted! wi.th what the West
holds, still fancy it is n cessary to
carry a six-shooter to insure his safe
ty while traveling beyond the Rocky
mountains.
New Day Dawning
"I can see the dawning of a new
day for the West. Your Exposition
:n 1:125 will have a stimulating effect
upon the traveling public. The trans
continental railroads will do their
part in exploiting the date and the
advantages to the traveler, by means
of t'aeir tremendous distribution sys
tem for literature. The railroads
come in direct touch, with tbe people
in the thickly populated centers. Re
duced raites, improved highways, con
venient hotel accomodations, courte
ous treatment, a brilliant objective,
all combined will place Oregon as the '
Northwest in the path of travel. It
will place Oregon 25 years ahead over
its normal growth and leave a whole
some atmosphere and a better under
standing among us all.

will be worth all the capital Oregou
invests in th witernrise. bsi.1p5 srii--

Water, that analyzes as pure as the

three quarters miles of pipeline and
has a capacity of 380,000 gallons in
24 hours.
Work on the water system was "
started by contractor V. R. Dennis cf
McMinnville on September 15. -Its
completion required two months to the

t rnt von desnondent and finally, after
almost giving up nope oi genius wen,
I heard of Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets
and began using them together with
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
and after a few months' treatment I
found myself practically well. I can
recommend these 'Anuric Tablets' for
weak kidneys; knd for torpid liver, im
pure blood and poor digestion, there is
nothing that equals the Golden Medi
cal Discovery." Sterling L. Brooks,

Adv.
hence to Klamath Lake hot springs.
made famous by Pelican Bay and Har-
riman Lodge. Here is where one can
find comfort in King Gray's skunk
farm, and Williams River flowing into
Klamath Lake. The best fishing in
the world is to be found here. Ask
John Scott; oh boy. there's big ones
Pelican. Bay is well named by
Scorch bard who once wrote: A g.
old bird is the pelican; he holds i
his bill his belli-can; he carries in hi
beak enough food for a week; I don
pee how in-hell-he-can.' It is said
Tom Lawson of frenzied finance fam'
was attracted to the Klamath Lake
district by the size of the fish caugh
in Williams river and tbe stately grac
of this grey old bird as it shuttl?
across from shore to shore.
Hell Gete Visited
Another point of interest is Hell
Gate and the Devil's Playground. Hell
Gate cuts through the Rogue liver, a
rolid mass of granite with many rap
ids and banks of floral grandure thit
have no equal anywhere in the world.
Ice caves on the one side and hot
springs on the other. In many places
the openings are sufficiently large to
permit one to drive an automobile in
to them. Sncw-capped mountains aa:i
a perpetual glow the sunlight.
while in the valleys below are pas
lures green and vegetation in'abund
once. This district is known as the
bad lands of the Modocs.
Paradise Alley is another point of
mtere.st in Southern Oregon. On my
last visit there I saw grapes growing
of the finest vintage, yielding 24 tons
lo the acre. Near Klamath Falls om;
gains the finest, view of Mt Shasta
that is to be had along the entire
Cascade Range.
"The Savage Rapids irrigation dis
trict, six miles east of Grants Pass,
is worthy of passing note The firs
unit of this project was just completed
under G&vernmental supervision ana
will bring into full mse 12,000 acres of
fertile land at a cost to the owners
of $99.00 per acre, payable over a
period of years. I doubt if the people
of Oregon realize what is going on in
their own state. This project is 492
feet long and the watjer is raised in
a 42 inch pipe, a distance of 125 feet,
by means of large turbines There
are 42 miles of canals and laterals.
The Great Klamath Reclamation is
an other worthy project in Southern
Oregon, bringing into bearing several
thousand acres of new farm land. I
wag astonished at the meager atten
tion these- projects receive while
undes construction. They are worthy
of greater exploitation. A moving 4-
tract on the.O. W. Robbins ranch two
miles east of the city. This ground
is owned by the city and iq is planned
to erect a large reservoir there in th-3
luture. The old reservoir has a capa
city of 75.0C0 gallons. The normal
consumption of the city is 40,000 gal
lons a day.
The new pipe iine runs for the
greater part of the seven miles thru
a prairie country where the ditch was
made by the use of tractors and plows..
Canyons, which necessitated consid
erable rock work, were encountered
for some two miles, and just east of
ihe city the line is sunk below the
bed of the Molalla river.
