PROGRESS IN COOS
Plenty for Willing Hands to Do
This Summer.
STREETS ARE BEING PAVED
Progress Being Made on Trolley
Line and Xew School Building
to Be Erected Plans for
District Fair.
MARSHFIELD, Or., July 26. (Spe
cial.) New work started in Marshfield
Is giving the city a better appearance
of stir and business, and what is now
on hand promises more employment for
the laboring man. For the rest of the
Summer the local situation for the
workingman will be better than it has
been since the opening of the season.
The paving of Front street with as
phalt has been started, and a force of
men Is employed on that undertaking.
The city has ordered a good deal more
paving, which promises further chance
of work.
Piling is being driven for the new
Chandler Hotel, and the construction
will be pushed. The hotel will be a
large one, and many laborers and me
chanics will be engaged in the work.
Progress on Trolley Iiine.
The Coos Bay Gas & Electric Com
pany is putting up new wire and has
quite a force at work, and Is also going
ahead with the construction of the new
electric line. As the work Increases a
greater number of men will be needed.
Plans for Fair.
The old fair grounds are being put
in shape for the Southern Oregon Dis
trict Fair, to be held August 26 to 29.
A new pavilion has been built, and the
grandstand enlarged and other smaller
structures put up. all of which has kept
a force of men busy. It is expected
that the fair will bring a large number
of people to Coos Bay, and give the
locality a lively week next month.
Erecting Xew School.
Another big improvement on hand in
Marshfield Is the school building which
is to 'be erected in the south part of
tile city, to accommodate the people in
that locality. The School Board has
opened the bids and will let the con
tract in a week. The bid of E. G. Per
ham, of Marshfield, is the lowest. It is
a bid of $.11,000 for the general con
struction. There will be additional bids
for plumbing and heating and ventilat
ing. The contracts will demand that
the work be completed by January 1,
1909.
Now that it is assured that Coos Bay
will get the dredge for work on the
harbor, great encouragement Is felt, as
the harbor improvement is regarded as
one of the most important needs of the
place. There is also a possibility of
another steamship line making Coos
Bay a port, which would add to the
facilities for reaching the place. I
There Is a general tendency of pick
ing up of business in the bay cities, and
many improvements are anticipated fof
this Fall.
The City Council of Marshfield has or
dered the reconstruction of " the sewer
system in the business district of North
Marshfield, which will be an extensive
improvement. The City Engineer reports
that the old sewer is practically out of
commission and a new sewer will be
needed. The Council has also ordered
several more elevated plank roadways in
addition to the street paving recently or
dered. The City Council of North Bend has
taken steps to give the city a better fire
protection, the action being the result of
the big woolen mill Are in that place re
cently. Bids will be received for the lay
ing of eight-inch water mains, which will
be supplied with salt water pumps. The
mains will extend down the main busi
ness street and to the waterfront.
KELSO BUSY, THRIVING CITY

KKL.SO. Wash.. July 26. (Special.)
Fifty miles north of Portland, in the
fertile valley of the Cowlitz, lies the
bustling little city of Kelso, and if there
are any hard times lyins around loose
in the country they are not visible to the

Two larse three-story brick blocks, the
Ballard and the Ely, are under course of
construction. the contract has been
awarded for an opera-house to cost $10,

KLAMATH AT EXPOSITION
Products Being Collected for Alaska-
Yukon Fair.
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., July 26.
(Special.) Klamath County farmers
are engaged in collecting products to
be used in the Klamath section of the
Oregon building at the Seattle Exposi
tion next year. This work is being
done at the instance of the Klamath
Chamber of Commerce, through whTch
organization arrangements for the dis
play of products from this county are
being perfected.
Klamath County is probably one of
. the first in Oregon, outside of Multno
mah, where preparations for participa
tion in the Portland Rose Festival of
1809 are already under way. It is the
intention of the directors of the Cham
ber of Commerce to provide a feature
for Klamath that will become a part of
the Klamath exhibit at Seattle. With
this object in view, it is possible to
. introduce an entirely original and
unique attraction.

BIG FARM PASSING
Marvelous Change Witnessed
in Linn County.
NEW ERA FOR INDUSTRY
Immigration, From Older States ol
Central West and Diversified
Crops Responsible for Revo
lution in Land Holdings.
ALBANY. Or.. July 26. (Special.) That
subdivision of farms is being rapidly
accomplished in Linn County is shown
conclusively by the real estate transfer
record and the work of the local ab
stract offices. The big farms of early
days are passing with a bygone indus
trial era. Two things are accomplishing
this change, which portends great things
for the agricultural future of this part
of the state. They are immigration and
diversified farming.
L ntll a comparatively recent date all
deals In farming lands here were con
ducted on a large scale. All real estate
transfers, especially those where ab
stracts were considered necessary, em
braced hundreds of acres. Ten years
ago the average Linn County farmer
had from 200 to 300 acres. A farm of 160
acres was considered small and a farmer
owning such a tract generally mortgaged
it in an effort to secure more land.
Now many farmers, and particularly
those living near the towns of the
county, have considerably less than 100
acres. Recent transfers in farming lands
sfow places as small as 10 acres and
farms of 40 acres are now not unusual.
A farm of 160 acres is rapidly becoming
regarded as a large place even on the
wide plains of Linn County.
Change of rive Years.
Approximately five years have made
this sweeping change. In fact it is only
in the past two years that the tendency
of subdivision of farms has become par
ticularly marked. There are from 30 to
60 per cent more real .estate transfers
being recorded in Linn County every
month this year than was the case three
years ago. The price per acre Is also
increasing rapidly. Both of these con
ditions are natural sequences of the ever
increasing movement toward the subdi
vision of big farms.
Immigration is in part responsible for
the dawning of this new era in agrt
culture. People from the Eastern states
and the Middle West, who are accustomed
to small farms, seek only a small tract
when they come West, and then cult!
vate it scientifically, utilizing it to its
fullest extent. The filling up of the
country with new people naturally causes
smaller farms, but the ideas of scientific
farming which these newcomers have
brought with them has accomplished
more than the numbers of the immi
grants. Diversified farming is the chief cause
of the coming era of small farms. For
a small farm necessarily means divers
itied crops. The idea of raising only one
crop, ana that crop wheat, has gone for
ever. Farmers here formerly raised only
wheat, and perhaps some oats, for the
market, and grew just enough hay to
reed the stock needed on the place. Now
they raise both hay and stock for market.
New crops of various kinds have been
tried and found successful. Clover-rais

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, July 26. (SpeclaL) The above
cut shows the Mary Spiller House at tire University of Oregon. This
building, which will accommodate about 20 young women, will be
ready for occupancy when the Fall term opens. It has been useless
for two years, owing to the fact that the funds necessary to install
the heating plant and water system were held up by the referendum
of the university bill.
The house was named after Miss Mary Spiller, the first woman to

ing has made the most remarkable In
crease in this part of the state and has
proved Jmmensely profitable.
Dairying and Poultry.
But dairying and poultry-raising have
become the leading adjuncts of the di
versified farm. Every railroad station
now has its skimming-station for the city
creameries. The exportation of chickens
and eggs has assumed remarkable pro
portions in this county in recent years.
The new condition is, perhaps, best ex
emplified by the statement that there is
now plenty of ready money on the farm.
In years gone by the farmer received
money only when he sold his wheat.
Then he paid the bills incurred during
the foregoing year and the surplus, if
there was any went into the bank. Now
the average farmer secures all of the
running expenses of his farm from his
cows and chickens. And most of them
run no accounts whatever, but pay cash
as they purchase.
The increase of fruit-growing is an
other cause of the subdivision of farms.
Many small tracts have been purchased
recently for commercial orchards of fruit
or walnuts. The scientific culture of
fruit, like the ideas of diversified farm
ing, has come only in the past few years
but is already assuming place as an im
portant industry.
The day of the big farm is certainly
passing in Linn County and in its place
is dawning an era of scientific and di
versified utilization of small tracts for
greater productiveness and increased
profit.
MILL CLEANS CLOVER SEED
New Industry Will Be of Benefit to
Hubbard Farmers.
HUBBARD, Or., July "26. (Special.)
Among the many new buildings going
up here is a warehouse to be used for
cleaning and storing clover seed. The
building, for which the foundation is
laid and lumber on the ground, Is to
be 36x60 and 22 feet high, and is being
erected by Hershberger Bros. The same
house is to contain a specially-constructed
cleaner of immense size, which
it is claimed will remove all foul weed
seeds, including plantain, from clover
seed.
The growing of clover seed has as
sumed large proportions in this vicin
ity the last few years. Five or six
threshers are kept busy for twl
months threshing seed, all of which
must be recleaned for market. Some
of the larger growers have fanning
mills suited for cleaning clover seed,
but heretofore many have been com
pelled to market the seed just as it
came from the separator. The large
central cleaning plant and storehouse
now being erected will be a boon' to
the small grower, for here he can, for
a few cents a bushel, have the seed
cleaned and stored until such time as
he sees fit to sell.
Hershberger Bros, have for several
years run a cider mill and also a feed
mill at this place, and the new line oi
business will work well with their
other established trade.

CHEHALIS, Wash., July 26. (Special.)
Yesterday the committee appointed by
the Lewis County Commissioners to han

Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Fair to be held in
Seattle, met in Chehalis and organized.
The entire subject was discussed and
plan of work outlined. George H. Miller,
-of Centralia, was chosen chairman, and
Dan W. Bush, of Chehalis, secretary of
the committee. Two capable men will
at once go into the field and begin the
work of gathering exhibits that are now
seasonable. One of these. Otto Albers,
of Chehalis, has already been chosen, and
the other place will be offered to F. A.

kept up with good results, and this Fall
the fruit, will be put upon the market'
in fine shape for shipping East. The
cannery is running full capacity on
berries and early fruit. During the'
heavy part of the season 40 or 60 girls
and women are employed, besides the
regular shift of men.
Another new factory will be built as
soon as a site can be selected. Wil
liams Bros, are now negotiating with
the Southern Pacific Company for a
place to build a box factory, which
when completed will employ from 30 to
60 men. Anoher theater will be opened
and ready for business by the last of
the week, giving to the public three
houses of amusement.
Dr. W. H. Flanagan has purchased
the August Fetsch' block, on the corner
of G and Sixth streets, and will remodel
the building by fitting the fronts with
plate-glass. When completed, the low
er floor will be occupied by a drug
store. It is understood the considera
tion was $25,000. As the building faces
on the most prominent streets, it. is
considered a good investment.
The numbering of the houses and let
tering of the streets has been complet
ed, and a memorial sent by the Council
to the local Postmaster, who will rec
ommend free delivery in his July re
port. The establishment of free deliv
ery in the city is only a matter of form
as the receipts of the Postofflce have
long Justified the Government in tak
ing the necessary steps in that direc
tion, but the matter had been delayed
through certain formalities.
The possibilities for a general system
of Irrigation in this part of the valley
have interested outside capital, and
several Investors are now in the fleid
seeking advantageous positions for lat
ter developments. An electric railway
from here to Illinois Valley seems to
be a matter of certainty. The parties
in charge are reticent in regard to the
termination of the road, and it is sus
pected that the company is trying to
make arrangements to head for the
Oregon Caves, which would make one
of the finest Summer resorts in South
ern Oregon. "
MUCH "JIM HILL" MUSTARD
Farmers About Garfield View Its
Encroachments With Alarm.
GARFIELD, Wash., July 26. (Spe
cial.) "Unless drastic measures are
taken there will be a plague of 'Jim
Hill mustard' throughout the Palouse
country," said a prominent farmer this
morning.
The "Jim Hill" variety appeared here
in one or two places last season. This
year it can be found in many places,
and the farmers and section men on
the railroads either do not know what
a plague to the farming community this
plant will be once its gets a foothold
here, or else they do not care.
Recently this obnoxious weed was
noticed growing in a wheat field near
the Garfield Northern Pacific depot:
also near the flour mill, and near the
O. R. & N. and Inland Electric tracki
The plant is said to be exceedingly
hardy, and the pods. ripen even after
the stalks are broken off in the green
state. When the Fall winds blow, the
plant . goes tumbling over the wheat
fields, sowing its seeds broadcast. The
course of a plant which has been driven
by the wind can be traced by a row of
young plants early in the Spring, as the
vegetation begins to grow.
"It is of the utmost importance," said
Senator McCroskey yesterday, "that the
farmers take notice of this plant, for if
it once gets a good start here, it will be
a difficult matter to get rid of it,"
There is said to be a state law ii
effect Imposing a fine or a severe penal
ty on those who fail to destroy this
weed when it is found on the farms, by
the highways and along the railroad
rights of way.

HUBBARD, Or., July 24. (Special.)
Several of the citizens of Hubbard are

MALHEUR LAND RICH
Watson Valley Reclaimed by
Irrigation.
TAKE WATER FROM OWYHEE
Settlement Has Grown Rapidly Since
First Homesteads Were Taken
Up Five Years Ago High
Prices for Hay Crop.
VALE, Or., July 28. (Special.) Several
years ago R. J. Ivers. Charley Adams,
M. N. Fegtley and Mr. Thompson left
Harney County in search of a location
where they could raise some hay and
make a start in stock business. In a
range war in Harney County, Ivers lost
all his holdings and property and landed
In this new country with nothing. The
only settlers in this locality at this time
were the Horn Brothers, who had large
numbers of horses ranging here.
This settlement at Watson is called
Red Butte, owing to the fact that a lone
reddish-hued mountain marks the site of
the settlement for a distance of many
miles. Red Butte is located on the
Owyhee River, about 50 miles south of
Vale. There are now raised annually
about 5000 tons of alfalfa hay and sold
at an average of $10 a ton in the stack!
upon the 20 odd ranches that are located
in the valley.
The water for irrigation is secured
from the Owyhee River by means of
wheels which lift the water onto the
land a distance of from 18 to 20 feet.
Many of these ranches have been taken
up wltnln the last five years, and con
sidering the fact that these men had
practically no money when . they went
in there, it was- an uphill proposition
from the beginning, as it required- con
siderable money: to level the land,- put
in the wheels and dams, and lay the
ditches They, therefore, went Into the
stock business, the range being prac-"
tically the best in the country', and
thus obtained money with which to do'
development work. None of these
ranches had been cultivated to the full
extent and it is estimated that not over
one-third of the irrigable land has yet
been reclaimed with water. Several
ranches were opened up this Spring and
money - has been secured by other set--tiers
who will place water upon their
property this Fall.
Watson is peculiarly situated, being
completely surrounded with mountains.
the Owyhee River cutting the valley up
In such a manner that one has practically
to ford' the river at several different
crossings in making a trip through the
ten orJ5-mile stretch from the head of
the valley to the lowey settlement.
This little valley is one of the garden
spots' of Malheur County and raises im
mense crops, there being no shortage
of water. The principle crop raised
there now is alfalfa, which produces
from six. to ten tons to the acre, the
farmer securing three crops of hay dur
ing the season. When parties in the
lower valley get $4.50 and t5 a ton for
their hay, these people at Watson con
tract theirs at J10. The cause for this
is that they are at the range where the
sheep and cattle are fed and the buyers
are not at the expense of driving their
stock for a distance of 30 to 40 miles
and do not have to prepare so early in
the season for their feeding grounds; and
again, in the early Spring there is no
danger from late snows.
Fully one-half the people owning land
in this valley are farmers. There Is
estimated to be something In excess of
100 families now living there. This ,is an
excellent showing for a valley that five
years ago did not contain over 120 peo
ple, all told.

Rich Valley and Desert Lands to

Rights in Southeastern Oregon.
DALLAS, Or., July 26. (To the Edi
tor.) Having resided in and ridden over
almost ail sections of Harney Countv,
I am fully prepared and gratified to
speak impartially of the merits and
possibilities' of that great undeveloped
region of Southeastern Oregon. There
is more vacant land of all kinds open
for settlement under the various land
laws than there is in any other county
in the State of Oregon. The remoteness
from railroad facilities has contributed
to retard the settlement of this important
region. The Harriman system has lo
cated a permanent route extending from
Ontario on the Oregon Short Line across
the state to Natron, just . above Eu
gene. This road is sure to be built.
Harney County is the largest county in

FOR PIMPLES, TOO
New Discovery Cure. Ecxema and Eradi
cate. Minor Skin Trouble. Over Night.
A few months ago the dispensers of
poslam, the new discovery for the
cure of .eczema, decided to allow the
druggists of the country to handle It.
Previous to that time it could only be
obtained direct from the laboratories.
Since this change in the method of
distribution, poslam has met with the
most .phenomenal success of anything
Introduced to the drug trade In the last
80 years. All the leading druggists.
Including the Skidmore Drug Co., in
Portland are now carrying the special
50-cent size recently adopted, also the
J 2 jar.
This great saccess Is not surprising
when it is remembered that, Sn eczema
cases, poslam stops the itching with
first application, proceeds to heal Im
mediately, and cures chronic cases In
a few weeks. In minor skin troubles,
such as pimples, blackheads, acne,
herpes, blotches, rash, etc., results
show after an overnight application.
Experimental samples of poslam- are
sent to anyone by mail free of charge,
by the Emergency Laboratories, 32
West Twenty-fifth Street, New York
City.
The vast multitudes of men who have
taken my treatment have not been disap
pointed. They know that I do not promise
more than I perform. To them I have actu
ally illustrated in the cure' of their own
cases the truth of what I claim, namely, that
my treatment Is as certain to cure as it is
that the patient engages my services and
follows my directions. My success is due
not alone to education, experience, skill and
scientific equipment, but to the fact that I
limit my study and practice strictly to dis
eases and weaknesses of men. To male
maladies alone I have earnestly and ex
clusively devoted 25 years of my life and on
them all my faculties are concentrated.
I have limited my specialty in practice to
only a few of the more important disorders,
so that I could KNOW" these thoroughly.
My experience along this one path for
twenty-five years qualifies me to say posi
tively that such Troubles as Spermatorrhoea,
l'Ont Viiror. Varicocele. Hydrocele, (ioaor
rboea. Syphllia. Stricture and Wpuknrin '
can be cured perfectly so as to stav cured.
Of course I use different methods than the

original with me and were devised for just
such cases as the ordinary courses of treat

A NEW DEPARTURE.
The cost of interments has been greatly
reduced by tbe Holman Undertaking
Company.
Heretofore It has been the custom of
funeral directors to makeacharges for all
Incidentals connected with a funeral. The
Edward Holman Undertaking Company,
the leading funeral directors of Portland,
have departed from that custom. When
casket is furnished by us we make no
extra charges for embalming, hearse to
cemetery, outside box or any services that
may be required of us, except clothing,
cemetery and carriages, thus effecting a
saving of J25 to 176 on each funeral.
