WHAT EUGENE IS DOING TO ATTRACT SETTLERS TO OREGON
Many Buildings Started at
Eugene.
Outlook- for Spring Is Bright
in Coos.
12
STONE AND CEMENT USED
Aotahle Improvements Planned,
Which Contribute to the Pros
perity of the Oregon
College Town.
EI'GEXR, Or., Feb. 16. (Special.) The
building: season in Eugone has fairly
opened and the year inns will be a more
active one than 1W7, with the probable
record at the close of the year of being
the greatest building year in the history
of Kugene.
There are scores of residences In course
of construction all over the city, in fact
this class of building has been progress
ing all Winter. Some of the residences
under construction are the best that have
yet been put up, a very noticeable feature
being the extent in which stone and ce
ment are used in these residence struc
tures. A short time ago a canvas? of the town
showed but one vacant house, and the
number of people coming here daily de
manded a betterment of conditions for
the homeseeker and this in part accounts
for the activity in building In the resi
dence sections. But the facts that ma
terial, especially lumber, is cheaper than
it has been for some time and that labor
is more plentiful, enabling the builder to
complete a house in a reasonable length
of time at a considerably lower cost than
could have been done a year or two ago,
have been strong factors In causing the
increased activity in building.
But the erection of public buildings and
business houses maintains the same pro
portion to former years as does the build
ing of dwellings. The Eugene 0neral
Hospital on College Hill, has just been
completed and is now in operation. The
Eugene Divinity School, a tine stone
building, Is in process of construction
and will be finished sometime during the
year. It will be a three-story building
entirely of stono and one of the finest
In the Willamette Valley. The new Pres
byterian church at the corner of Tenth
and Pearl streets is being rapidly ad
vanced and is to be completed by August
10. This is to be of stone and will prob
ably be the finest Protestant church builu
ing. outside of the city of Portland, In
Oregon. The Southern Pacific Company
has promised to begin work on the new
depot here by April 1 and It is said that
no better station will be ereeteu between
Portland and Sacramento. The Board of
Directors have decided to build an addi
tion of several rooms to me new High
School building, which will relieve the
congested condition of t'.ie schools until
Fall, when it will be necessary to pro
vide another building.
Excavations are being made for the
business building to be erected by F. L.
Chambers on "Willamette street, between
Sixth and Seventh streets, which is to
of brick. The foundation Is completed
for the. JIuIln brick and stone building on
Ninth street, between Willamette and
Oak, and just across the street frame
wbrk Is up for the Patterson brick build
ing. F. C Potts has let the contract for
a laree brick building to be constructed
on Olive street, between Eighth and
Ninth, and S. B. Finnegan will build a
like structure adjoining It during the
Spring or Summer.
The Hodes building on Willamette
street, "between Eighth and Ninth, is be
ing remodeled for & theater building.
Beside these changes it 1s not improbable
that five large brick buildings will be
constructed In the business section, three
of them In that block on Willamette
street between Sixth and Seventh streets
destroyed by fire during the past Sum
tner. This building, with the continuance of
the street car line through East Eugene
toward Springfield, and the paving of the
side streets joining Willamette and
F.leventh street, which Joins the town and
the University of Oregon campus, will
make the building and construction im
provements In Eugene for the period of
J DOS exceed those of any previous year by
far.
TALKS BEAR MUCH FRUIT
FARMERS BUYING GRAFTING
ANT SPRAYING SUPPLIES.
Men Badly Needed in Rural Dis
tricts Especially to Cut Wood.'
High Prices Will Prevail.
SALEM. Or., Fob. 16. (Special.) That
the educational work among fruitgrowers
by such men as M- O. Lownsdale and E. C.
Armstrong has been productive of great
results In this vicinity, is evident from
the unprecedented sales of grafting and
spray materials by Salem dealers. During
the iost few days of clear weather there
lias been an immense demand for rosin,
1eeswax and tallow with which to make
grafting wax, thus showing conclusively
rim farmers are acting upon the advice
of Mr. Lownsdale to cut down their old,
neglected and diseased apple trees, with
a view to grafting into the stumps.
Much of the grafting this year, how
ever, will be in younger trees. vshich were
permitted to form a top so high as to be
out of reach, or which are of unmarket
able varieties. In most instances where
old trees are cut down, they will be cut
close to the ground nd the grafting will
bo done next Winter in the shoots that
come up from the old stump this Sum
mer. A great many cherry orchards are
being grafted to marketable varieties
usually the Royal Anne where the orig
inal troo is of a variety for which there is
no demand.
It Is estimated that 30 spray pumps
have been sold here already this season,
and probably twice as many more will be
sold before the spraying season Is over.
Most of the pumps are of the barrel kind,
operated by hand, but a few power ma
chines have been put 4nto use. The great
majority of the orchardlsts have so few
trees that they cannot afford to own
power sprayers. Most of the large art-hard
ists were already provided with
power sprayers. The barrel pumps,
though a little mere expensive to operate
In proportion to the amount of work ac
complished, will go far toward cleaning
up the. neglected orchards and will be
tised where tho orchards would be left
uusprayed if power machines, requiring a
considerable investment, were necessary.
Though newspapers in Portland. . Ta
coma and Seattle report that there are
large numbers of Idle and hungry men in
tho cities, farmers In the Willamette Val
ley still have trouble in securing men

CLIMPSli INTO PROMOTION DEPARTMENT OF EUGENE COMMERCIAL CLIB.
EUGENE, Or., Feb. 16. (Special.) The promotion department of the Eugene Commercial Club has sent Out 8300 pieces of mall matter dur
ing the past two months. Of the corps of stenographers one is kept busy all the time with foreign correspondence. Eugene is the only
Commercial Club on the Pacific Coast giving particular attention to this class of advertising, and only the best class of immigrants is chosen
with which to do this publicity work. In addition to the regular corps of stenographers and typewriters employed in the office of the Com
mercial Club, as shown above, the pupi!3 of the public schools are writing hundreds of letters to their friends in different parts of the coun
try telling them about Oregon. While the outgoing letters and advertising matter refer largely to Lane County and Eugene, it Is expected that
al! Oregon will reap a part of the benefits to come from an expenditure of over $12,000 a year, or 1000 a m onth, which the people of Eugene
have contributed for the advertising of this section of the country.
CHEESE OUTPUT IS LARGE
TIIXAMOOK CREAMERY MAKES
AXXUAL REPORT.
Dairy Products for Past Year Ag
. grcgate Over $50,000 in Value
IVom One Institution.
TILLAMOOK, Or., Feb. 16. (Special.)
One of the latest large cheese factories
to report last year's business is the
Tillamook Creamery, the second largest
factory In the county as to the amount of
milk received. For a number of years
the Tillamook Creamery, which was one
of the first factories started in the county,
used to get more patronage than any
other factory but the last few years the
Maple Leaf Creamery Association has
outdistaced it, for last year it had 3.533,
32 pounds of milk against 3,3oo,3S2 by the
Tillamook Creamery.
These two factories received 6,K78,744
pounds of milk and manufactured 735,000
pounds of cheese and 2770 pounds of but
ter, the receipts being J103.871.25 for the
two factories for last year. The Tilla
mook Creamery report shows a gain of
160,776 pounds of milk, the exact figures
enough to do their work. Farmers would
ibe pleased If the city authorities would
find some means of driving the idle men
out Into the country that is, if the idle
men really want work.
As a result of the high prices for cord
wood last Fall, farmers have been trying
to get plenty of wood cut this Winter,
but there is evidence that they are not
getting as much cut as they would like.
Owing to the slack offerings, the board of
trustees' at the State Insane Asylum has
raised Its price to $4 a cord again. It
wae believed that there would be a good
supply and that the board could buy at
$3.50, but the supply Is not In evidence.
There is a likelihood that the ruling price
for first-growth fir wood in Salem next
Summer will be up around $4.50 or $5 a
cord.

The Three Rivers Creamery Association
at Hebo, reports 1,397,896 pounds of milk
received for the nine months that factory
was operated, which produced 52,988.57
pounds of butter fat. This made 149.163
pounds of cheese, which will bring the
patrons about $21,000.
Conditions Good at Elma.
ELMA, Wash... Feb. 16. (Special.)
Business conditions in Eastern Che
halis County are Improving rapidly,
and every mill and camp Is now prac
.tlcally running full time and with a
full crew. -Most of the shingle mills
have started up and there has been no
reduction in wages whatever In any
of them. The same union wages are
paid that were paid prior to the shut
down. In the logging camps, however,
wages have been reduced some, as well
as in the sawmills, owing to the price
of logs being lower than they were
when the high wages prevailed last
year. ,
men registered as electors in Linn
County yesterday who are more than 60
years old and are native sons. They are
Newton Crabtree, of Scio, who is 62
years old, and Scott Ward, of Albany,
who is 60. Cyrus H. Walker, of Albany,
is the oldest living white child born
west of the Rocky mountains, and while
he was born in the old Oregon Territory
69 years ago, his birthplace is not within
the present limits of Oregon, so this
leaves Mr. Crabtree the oldest native
son, strictly speaking, who has thus far
registered here.

buildings. The consolidation of these
various Interests makes the strongest
aggregation of capital ever Invested In
one deal In Yakima Valley lands. The
great Sunnyside canal, now the property
of the Government, passes through these
lands.
This deal and the prominence of the
people connected with the company mak
ing the purchase emphasizes the state

BEES POISONED BY SPRAY
Mr. Dosch Says They Need Not Be
Killed If Instructions Followed.
HILLSDALE, Or., Feb. 1. (To th
Editor.) In The Oregonian of last Monday
appears a lonft article from Walla Walla on
the eubject. Bees Poisoned by Spray Mix

moth be exterminated in the valley at the
expense of the bee industry? will the or
chard pest and the little honey maker die
together? The problem Is becoming a seri

There Js evidently something radically
wrong here; either your correspondent has
been misinformed or these orchardists have
failed to learn the lessons taught by the
members of the state board of horticulture

MANY NEW INDUSTRIES
Advertising of Past Year Has At
tracted 3Iany New Settlers
From All Pars of the
Country.
MARSHFIELD. Or., Feb. 16. (Special.)
Spring activities on Coos Bay are open
ing with promise of a lively Summer.
Two concrete business blocks, one to be
occupied by the Flanagan & Bennett
Bank, and the other by the First Trust
& Savings Company, are nearing com
pletion. The Rogers building, a brick
structure. Is finished, and the Williams
block, another concrete building, is in
course of construction. Order now placed
with the lumber companies indicate that
scores of small cottages will be built
this. Summer.
As more extensive advertising has been
done during the past year than ever- be
fore, It Is anticipated that many new peo
ple will come to Coos Bay and prepara
tions are being made accordingly. Work
on the new JTS.OOO hotel will begin at
once, so Marshfield -will be better able
than ever before to take care .of strang
ers. East MarshHeld and Bay City, two
settlements opposite Marshfield on the
bay, have decided to incorporate, and an
other municipality will be added to those
bordering on Coos Bay.
It is expected that active work will be
done by local capital this Summer In
dredging the upper bay to better pro
vide for vessels. The increased lumber
manufacturing plants will create a larger
ocean traflic and the dredging becomes a
necessity. The big plant of the C. A.
Smith Lumber Company will be complet
ed soon and will have a capacity of
25.001) feet an hour. The mill of tho
Simpson Lumber Company at Porter is
being enlarged and $30,000 will be expend
ed on the plant.
There is so much activity in the coal
mining business that the holdings of the
Southern Pacific Company at this point
are to be greatly enlarged. The Lillian
mine, owned by L. J. Simpson, of North
Bend, and located on Coos River, is be
ing reopened and will be in operation in
ten days. Several smaller mines are also
being opened.
The Marshfield people have been mak
ing an effort to improve the mail service.
Inspector Vaiile recently visited the city
and looked over the mail route from
Roseburg to Marshfield. The roads are
In bad shape and the mails have been
somewhat slow, so it was decided to pe
tition the department asking 'that every
thing but the daily papers and letters be
brought by boat from Portland once a
week. It is thought that this arrange
ment will lightn the mails so that the
letters and daily papers can bo brought
over the mountains more promptly.
Farms Sold at Weston.
WESTON. Or., Feb. 16. (Special.)
The Adams place, two miles east of
town, was sold yesterday by Walter
Adams to R. W. Brown, formerly of
Eureka Flat. The place contains 300
acres, much being good farm land, and
the consideration is not given out. but
Is said to have been about $60 an acre.
The place Is well Improved, with a fine
house and barn and gravity water
works. It formerly belonged to ex
Representative Henry C. Adams, and
was among the first farms in this
vicinity. Mr. Brown will seed the bot
toms to alfalfa and will raise hogs and
chickens and plant fruit trees.

plant.
we aimed to teach. We have even gone so
far as to have halftones made and pub
lished, showing the blossoms, when to spray
and when not to spray, so that no possible
mistake could be made: In the face of all
or which I am more than surprised, that
the little honeymaker should be sacrificed.
The codling moth does not exist, nor does
its deadly work when the little busv bee
gathers In the nectar from the blossoms.
The result to be obtained by spraying with
poisons is to kill the worm which begins to
feed on the blossom end of tbe embryo apple
or pear codling where the moth has laid its
egg, and as soon as it hatches its first
breakfast should kill it. But when there
is no codling to speak of. nor moth to lay an
egg upon it, what is the use of spraying to
destroy something that does not exist? Un
der no circumstances should trees be spray
ed while In full bloom, for it is not only a
useless expense, but a waste of time and
material as well, and as appears In this

It is impossible, simply impossible, for any one to

Instance, destroy a useful and valuable
honey-making insect.
The first spray with poisons to destroy
the codling worm is made after all the blos
soms have fallen; tiie embryo codling apple
or pear is then sufficiently developed to
show, and before the blossom end closes, in
whifh the moth usually iaya Its first ecc,
so the poison Is present when the egg brings
forth the worm. The moth does not work
until the nights are warm, which are
usually the latter part of May or early June,
by which time the blooming season Is over
and the bees no longer seek nectar on the
fruit trees, but are found buzzing in the
clover and alfalfa fields.
In view of these facts, which have been
preached so often and the methods fol
lowed by so many scientific horticulturists,
it almost seems criminal to spray while the
trees are in lull bloom.
Spray bulletins are published free anil
can be had for the asking, from the stale
boards of horticulture end Agricultural Col

possess them, they should certainly add
them to tholr libraries, read .up and bring
themselves up-to-date. It Is a duty they
owe to themselves, their neighbors, and

Railroad Commission Sets Investi
gation for Tomorrow.
Further investigation Into the wreck of
the Sheridan passenger train near Forest
Grove early last week will be conducted
by the Oregon Railroad Commission. The
hearing will be held In this city tomor
row afternoon, beginning at 1 P. M. The
session will be held In the auditorium of
the Chamber of Commerce. All three
members of the commission will attend.
It is desired by the commission to ex
amine additional Southern Pacific officials,
as the inquiry made last week at Forest
Grove was nflt as thorough as was de
sired, hut it was impossible at that time
to complete the investigation. It is likely
that tomorrow will conclude the hearing
on the wreck and that "the report of the
commission will be forthcoming within a
few days thereafter. ,
Duty or the Young Man.
The duty which the yountr man of
Portland owes to the city was the sub
ject of the sermon at the Grace Meth
odist Church last night, preached by
the pastor. Rev. William H. lleppe. lie
had received a number of communica
tions from business men of the city,
telling their ideas of what young men
ought to do for Portland. These tho
pastor read from the pulpit. Dr. Heppo
said the young man Is often lost in
the mass anrl docs not remember that
he is a social unit, lie spoke of the
cities as the storm renters of the Na
tion, but said It was not impossible
for a young man to live an exempKrj
life In the city.
