KLAMATH CALLS
FOR LABORERS
Irrigation Project and Indus
tries Handicapped by Lack
of Workmen.
GOOD WAGES ARE OFFERED
Farmers and Railroad Contractors
Compete in Securing Help Dur
ing the Busy Summer Months.
Indians Work on Canals.
' KLAMATH FALLS, Or., July 29. (Spe
cial.) The labor situation In Klamath
Basin is still tense, owing to the vast
amount of work requiring men and the
difficulty In procuring laborers. Mason,
Davis & Co., contractors on the first unit
of the Klamath project, have partially
relieved their needs by bringing in a
large number of Greek laborers who have
t)een employed elsewhere on railroad con
struction and were attracted by the wages
paid here, $3 a day and board for eight
hours' work. About 100 laborers have
been brought In during the past week by
the contractors transportation being fur
nished to the end of the Klamath Lake
Railroad. Some of these men have pre
ferred the hayflelds to ditch work, but
farmers in the vicinity of Merrill, Bo
nanza, Fort Klamath and Klamath
agency are still crying for men, and in
some instances paying wages of $2.25 a
day and board in order to get the thou
sands of tons of alfalfa, timothy and
wild hay Into stack in the best possible
condition.
Several hundred men could easily find
employment in the Klamath Basin at
these high wages for the next eight or
ten weeks, and it is doubtful if the wage
scale will again be lowered. Probably
1000 men could find work immediately,
and, with the contractors on the Califor
nia Northeastern Railroad anxious to
double and treble their forces and place
additional subcontractors at work in
pushing that road towards Klamath
Falls, there will be no dearth of work
for all who care to come.
Indians Work on Canal.
A great many miles of main canal and
laterals, embracing 19 miles of the second
unit of the project and 27 miles of lat
erals and drainage canals, besides the
greater part of the laterals to serve the
first unit of the irrigation works yet to
be built by the United States engineers
and laborers, are the need to accomplish
this. Indian labor was to have been em
ployed largely on this work, and Captain
O. C. Applegate, agent for the Government
to employ Indians for the work, had re
cruited a considerable force from the
agencies at Yannlx and Fort Klamath,
which it was expected to augment to the
number of 150 men 'by this time. How
ever, the Klamath Indians are progres
sive farmers and stockmen themselves,
and a majority were obliged to leave the
canal work long enough to put up their
own hay crops. The greater part of the
labor now employed by the Government
camps Is white, and until the latter part
of August It cannot be expected that
many of the Indians will return to the
canal.
From the end of the California North
eastern Railroad, now completed to a
point 38 miles from Laird's Landing, on
Lower Klamath Lake, comes the wel
come news that large numbers have been
added to the force employed, and It is
anticipated that work can be prosecuted
without further annoyance from this
source.
Travelers Take to Fields.
While it Is not possible to impress trav
elers Into labor of the hay fields here, lie
cause remote from the routes of travel,
there are instances reported where men
on vacation trips to the mountains and
fishing grounds have been Induced to take
up the pitchfork In lieu of the rod and
gun. One sturdy farmer of the Merrill
section is credited with a most success
ful assault on the force of Mason, Davis
& Co., at Camp No. 2, where he charged
the works and captured a full crew for
his alfalfa field by paying higher Wages
than the contractors were paying, and
when Intercepted by the foreman of the
gang, promptly made that worthy a lib
eral offer to take the foremanship of "his
ranch. The representative of the canal
builders acknowledged himself beaten by
the nerve of the farmer, but politely de
clined the offer of higher wages and called
on headquarters for more men to fill up
his depleted ranks.
Building operations in Klamath Falls.
Merrill and Bonanza have not been In
terfered with by the difficulty of obtain
ing labor, as the work Is more or less of
the skilled class and receiving higher com
pensation. In Klamath Falls, four brick
buildings and several other business struc
tures are In course of construction. Oth
ers are planned for which contracts have
been let. In Merrill, considerable con
struction work is under way, and at
Bonanza a new public school building,
opera-house and several other buildings
are being erected. There are a number
of Instances where carpenters and brick
workers have quit their regular occupa
tions for the fields, but not in such num
bers as to embarrass the contractors on
buildings, and not because of receiving
higher pay, but purely through the de
sire to enter the hayflelds for a change
of work.
PREPARE TO ERECT BIG MIUL
Palmer Lumber Company Clearing
Ground Near La Grande.
LA GRANDE, Or.. July 29. Specia!.)
A force of men started today clearing
the ground for the erection of the Pal
mer Lumber Company's large mills.
About 20 acres of trees and brush re
quire clearing away before the construc
tion of the buildings can begin.
On account of the extreme preparatory
work the company does not plan to put
the mill In operation this year, but ex
pects to open up for work early in the
Spring. A corps of railroad engineers
Is busy staking out the spur to the mill
site.
The county plans to further improve
Its roadways in the vicinity of the new
mill. At the next session of the County
Court the matter of an extension of
the road northward from Marion street
will be brought, up, also preliminaries
for a new bridge across the Grande
Ronde River.
SCRVET WILI 600X COMMENCE
Klamath Points to Be Connected by
Electric Lines.
KLAMATH FALLS. Or., July . Spe
cial. Engineer J. D. Boyle, of Seattle,
employed as chief engineer for the Ore
gon and California Development Com
pany, will this week begin the first field
survey to be made for the projected
electrio railroad to connect Klamath
Falls with Bonanza, Merrill and other
points within the Klamath Basin. This
la the -electric railroad project which J.
D. Carroll has been promoting and in
which General C. M. Idleman, of Port
land, Is one of the incorporators.
The importance of this system as a
connecting freight, express and passen
ger line for the California Northeastern
and Oregon Eastern Railroads, as well
as for handling the internal traffic of
the Klamath Basin, will be great. If
carried to successful completion. It is
stated that capital has been pledged for
the Initial work and that the parties
interested are prepared to invest what
ever may be required, to construct and
operate the line.
The route is remarkable in that there
is a difference in elevation between the
most distant points of less than. 100
feet in a distance of 26 miles. With level
valley lands tinder the main canal of
the United States reclamation project
intervening, with the dense population
which such a region can sustain and will
attract as a result of the Government
Irrigation works, the opportunity pre
sented in this basin was calculated to
prove most alluring to Investors in elec
tric railway enterprises.
. It has been the announced Intention of
the promoters of this railway project to
await the completion of the California
Northeastern Railroad to the Klamath
Basin for delivery of steel rails and
heavy construction material. This will
be accomplished probably by October and
meantime the electric railway people are
taking up their preliminary work.

I Hi MAP OF THE RESERVE THAT HAS JUST
r BEEN CREATED
11111 ni ,
OREGONIAN KBW9 BUREAU, Washington, July 26. -The work of the United States reclamation service upon the Umatilla,
irrigation project will be greatly furthered by the forest reserve that ha recently been established just south of the town of
Beppner, in Eastern Oregon.
This reserve embraces an area of 202,170 acres, covering a spur of the Blue Mountains which separates the waters of the
North Fork of the John Day River from Willow Creek and other streams flowing northward Into the Columbia and Umatilla
Rivers.
Certain of the streams heading in this area are of great value, as the Umatilla project contemplates the use of flood
waters from the Umatilla River by storage, supplemented by any additional supply that can be obtained by diverting the
flood waters of Willow Creek, or any of the tributaries of the John Day River.
The records of the discharge 'of the Umatilla River show that if storage can be had there Is sufficient water supply for
from 60,000 to 75,000 acres of land.' and it Is estimated by the reclamation service that an area of probably not less than
150,000 acres of land Is available for irrigation If the water supply can by any means be sufficiently Increased to cover It,
Every effort will accordingly be made by the Government to protect the forest cover at the heads of these streams, within
the forest reserve, with a view to regulating and Increasing the stream flow of the region. The reserve will be carefully
patrolled at Government expense to keep out fires and to prevent wasteful and destructive use of Its resources of all kinds.
As the entire tract Is essentially range land and offers but little Inducement to the homebuilder. Its withdrawal from
settlement will not interfere seriously with any interests. In all other respects the, reserve will be open to use by the
public under such restrictions only as will Insure the permanence of Its resources. The timber, water, pasture, mineral and
other resources will, continue to be for the use of the people. ' .
have an alcohol factory. P. H. Rout
rahn, one of Garfield's prominent bus
iness men, has been investigating with
a view of ascertaining the opening for
such a plant in this city. In discussing
the matter he said:
"Since Congress has passed the hill re
moving all duty from alcohol I have
been looking into the matter and find
that I can produce the finest kind of
alcohol from the hundreds of tons of
fruit that annually go to waste in the
orchards in this district. There is prac
tically no limit to the raw material that
can be procured here, with little or no
expense for the purpose.
"The Palouse country produces pota
toes in abundance and they can be used
to splendid advantage in making alco
hol. I believe this district has many
advantages over others for a factory of
this kind and I have practically all the
machinery for the venture. I am think
ing very strongly of going Into the busi
ness, as I am satisfied It will be a pay
ing proposition from the start."
POWER LIE IS EXTENDED
RURAL HOMES WILL HAVE
. ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Irrigation at May Park and Fruit
dale Will Also Be Helped
by Extension.
LA GRANDE, Or., July 29. (Special.)
The spirit of Industrial development is
making itself manifest In the homes of
the residents of May Park and Frultdale,
two of the most productive fruitgrowing
districts in the valley. The towns are
situated in such close proximity to La
Grande that the residents have succeeded
in Inducing the Grand Ronde Electric
Company to extend Its power line for
their use.
This extension will supply power for
pumping plants for irrigation along the
river, ana also electric service for the
residents. The feed line branches from
the Island City line and crosses the river
north into Frultdale. Motors are being
Installed for pumping purposes at the
residence of C. H. Conkey. J. 8. Chandler,
Lw C. Pennell and J. B. Stoddard. At the
latter place a 15-horsepower motor will be
installed, this being one of the heaviest
fruit-producing tracts in the valley. Alto
gether, the electric company has con
tracts amounting to 35 horsepower.
There are between 60 and 100 families
that will be benefitted by this industry,
and who will be able to enjoy tbe com
forts of electrio light and water systems
In their homes. The residents of May
Park and Frultdale have long enjoyed
the privileges of the telephone and rural
mall delivery, and with this new acquisi
tion, all that is now desired is an elec
tric railway. Without doubt, this, too,
will soon be supplied.

Mrs. E. E. Gore Discusses Progress
of the Industry With Special
Reference to the Rogue
River Country. .
MED FORD, Or, July 28. (To the Edi
tor). Not a little Interest haa been ex
pressed in the editorial In The Oregonlan
of July 23 on "Fruit Marketing Prob
lems," and that of July 24, on "Gaining
a Reputation for Fruit."
That Rogue River apples, pears and
prunes are held in high esteem all over
the world, is a well known fact. This is
due, primarily, to the existence of ideal
conditions of climate, soil and slope of
land, which make this1 section the horti
culturist's paradise. The, ability to utll-
ize these conditions by the Intelligent ap
plication of scientific methods of fruit cul
ture ensures the production of fruit that
cannot be excelled in size, form, flavor
or color.
Realising from several years of unprofit
able experiments with small quantities
of fruit, that shipping must be carried
on to an extent permitting carload sales,
efforts have been made through the co
operation of the Fruit Growers's Associa
tion and the Oregon Development League
to unite the various fruit-growing in
dustries. This plan is intended to elimi
nate as far as possible that element of
loss due to making small shipments and
the attendant damaging of the product
in transit because of careless sorting or
packing.
Importance of Picking.
In the Rogue River valley the packing
business has been, and Is, studied in de
tail, and well-directed efforts are em
ployed to secure uniform standards In
preparing fruit for market
Many women and girls are considered
expert packers and are engaged a few
days at a time by the small growers to
pack the crop. The assortment of varie
ties ripening a few days or weeks apart
provide lucrative employment throughout
the season. In this immediate vicinity
the commission merchant does very lit
tle packing, as his work is contracted for
and performed at the orchards.

BEER HELPS EASTERN OREGON FARMER
TO HARVEST HIS CROP OF HAY
Tries Vainly to Find Laborers Until He Offers Them Cooling Hop
Beverage Then Flock Volunteers. 1
Pendleton Tribune.
The Umatilla County labor question has
been settled at last, and now the ever
seeking laborers will not hang for an
eight-hour day or refuse to earn their
bread by the sweat of their brows on at
least one ranch In the Birch Creek coun
try. The farmers and ranchmen of Umatilla
County are having a hard time in getting
men to take care of the fast-ripening
crops, according to the stories that are
being told by them when they come into
Pendleton to secure a crew and are forced
to return empty-handed to their ranches.
One man, however, has solved the riddle.
He is of a modest and retiring disposition,
however, and has requested that his name
be not used. though he tells his story with
some grim enjoyment.
"The farmers," said the rancher, yester
day afternoon, "are up against a lot of
hoboes who are as afraid ot work as an
Indian is of a bath. They do not want
work, although they seem to be hunting
it, and, if I am not mistaken, there are a
hundred men In town today who are liv
ing off the people without exerting them
selves enough to soil the yellow leather
of a new hatband. When they are asked
to go out on a ranch they refuse unless
they are promised an eight-hour day, and
if by any chance some concession is made
to them they refuse unless they are also
promised boiled water to drink. But I got
ahead of 'em," and the rancher smiled
and looked pleased with a grim gleam of
expectation in his eye. "I have got a load
ready to go out with me at 1 o'clock.
"I have asked a hundred men to go help
me put in my crop if I have asked one,"
continued the rancher, "and I could not
get one to promise. All of them asked
me if I worked over eight hours or if I
gave them boiled water until I was sick
ment, a small farm of 14 acres Is made
to yield vegetables, alfalfa and fruit for
family consumption, and the owner mar
kets 100 to 150 boxes of as choice apples
as are produced in the valley. These ap
ples are scientifically sprayed, picked,
sorted and packed and are shipped
through larger growers in a way to be
profitable in a small way to the producer.
This is one of many cases that might
be cited. The small grower co-operating
with the large orchardist makes it pos
sible to seek out the best possible mar
ket, and 4y the use of refrigerator cars
to insure the - attractive appearance of
the product, enhance its keeping qualities,
and place it in the hands of the con
sumer in unexcelled condition. For this
the producer receives a price that makes
the use of first-class fruit prohibitive on
the part of the local consumer who, by
the use of lower grade fruit at cheaper
rates, provides a market for the less sale
able product.
Southern Oregon apples are famous in
New York and London. Last year the
press gave wide circulation to the fact
that J. W. Perkins, of Medford. received
17.30 per box in New Tork for a carload of
Cornice pears. Orchardists are very Jeal
ous of the reputation of Oregon fruit
and are willing to co-operate with small
growers In all possible ways to Insure
the perpetuation at home and abroad. ,
NO COMPLAINT AT LA GRANDE
Little Damage Has Been Done to the
Wheat Crop.
LA GRANDE, Or., July 29. (Special.)
Wheat harvesting began this week, and,
although the farmers do not universally
agree as to the condition of the crop,
there is little cause for complaint. There
will undoubtedly be a shortage in some
of the late Spring-sown grain, but the
cool nights during the past week have
worked wonders, and fields that were
thought to be firing have revived and are
in excellent condition.
There is no doubt that the Fall-sown
grain is first class, and the yield will
be. heavy. A shortage of help is feared,
although it is believed the present situa
tion will be releived toy workers from the
beet fields, as the work of cultivating the
beets will soon be finished.
WATER SYSTEM AT DAYTON
Reservoir Holding 50,000 Gallons
. Will Be Installed. .
DAYTON, Or., July 29. (Special.) Day
ton is to have a 60.000-gallon reservoir at
the head of the waterworks. The original
plan of a concrete basin has been aban
doned because the contractors refused to
undertake the work. The City Council
will superintend the construction work,
and 'Will build a redwood tank. The new
reservoir will furnish ample fire protec
tion, and will materially reduce insur
ance rates in Dayton.

of the whole business and mad, and when
the last man I tried to give a job asked
me if the water was good on the ranch I
said: 'I am sure I don't know; I never
drank it.'
" 'What!' said the laborer, "don't drink
water?
" 'No, I answered, 1 drink beer
" Well,' persisted the workingman. but
how about the water for the hands? "
"I guess it will wash them," answered
the farmer. "Are you so fastidious that
you want boiled water to wash in?"
The good news could not be compre
hended by the laborer and he asked again,
to make certain, "You don't give the hay
hands beer, do you?"
"Well," said the rancher, "they do not
have to drink it unless they like it. They
can drink water if they prefer that kind
of a beverage." " .
"Say, partner," interrupted the laborer,
"I am your man. I will help you put in
your hay, and I have got three friends
around town here who would like jobs,
too."
The farmer looked at the man a minute
and then laid down the conditions:
"You have got to work if you go with
me, and the day is more than eight hours
lon- by nearly four."
"Oh! that is all right," was the answer.
"And if you don't do the work as I want
it done you get paid off on the ranch and
have to walk into town," continued the
rancher.
"That's all right, too," he was assured.
"We won't quit until you get through
with us."
"Their blankets are over at the barn In
my wagon. I always kept beer on the
ranch, but never thought to mention it.
But you bet they will earn it," continued
the farmer, and that is how the industrial
problem has been solved on one ranch
in Umatilla County.

HOT WAVE CUTS WHEAT CROP
DOW2T TO ONE-HALF.
Fall-Sown Grain Not Greatly In
jured and Will Average 25
Bushels to tbe Acre.
KIONA. "Wash., July 29. Special.)
Harvesting began generally throughout
the RatUesnake and Horse Heaven coun
try this week. Spring wheat is found
to be greatly injured by the hot wave,
being but about half a crop. At the
Travis farm a few miles south of Klona,
in the Horse Heaven country, the Spring
grain is averaging about nine bushels to
the acre. The Fall-sown grain and vol
unteer, however, does not seem to be
greatly Injured and will average 20 to
25 bushels to the acre. As the acreage
in the wheat belt adjacent to Kiona
is much greater this year than ever be
fore, the actual amount, of grain to be
marketed here will be as great as in
previous years, and probably greater.
Wheat is already beginning to come
into the local warehouses. The Winter
wheat grades No. 1, but the Spring
grown is pretty badly shriveled. How
ever, millers say the shriveled grain
makes Just as good flour. If not bet
ter, than the fully matured and filled
berry. ' .
An agent of the Portland grain buyers
has been investigating the Horse Heaven
wheat belt this week in the endeavor
to form an estimate of the amount of
wheat that will be marketed at the Co
lumbia River for shipment to Portland
by steamer. He reports that two new
steamer landings will be established on
the Washington side of the river, in this
county.-
A force of workmen Is improving the
dam of the Kiona Water Supply and Ir
rigation Company at this place. Rock
is being blasted from the adjacent bluffs
and the dam strengthened and raiilid,
as it has not in tbe past delivered quite
enough water at the midsummer stage
of the river to satisfy the owners. This
canal is owned by local farmers and is
about two miles in length.
