LONG LITIGATION OVER llarnt River Company Gets Full Control and Will Proceed to De velop Mines That Have Turned Out Great Nuggets. BAKER CITY, Or., Dec. & (Special.) A deal lias Just been closed here that af fects the waters of what Is known aa the Eldorado Ditch, ore of the oldest and longest Irrigation ditches In Eastern Ore iron. According to papers Juki placed on file, the Burnt River Gold Mining A Dredging Company has now full control" of the Eldorado Ditch waters, which In mires extensive working of the Pine Creek placers. These placers have long been rated very rich and during early daya. and even after the Auburn gold ex cltement. the Pine Creek property was considered among the best in Baker County. Lack of sufficient water pre vented working only In a primitive way. but at that thousands of dollars were taken from the diggings. This -is the locality that yielded the famous Oregon $1100 nugget. ' which oo eupies a prominent place In the state's mining history. P. Basche. now County Treasurer of this county, and. H. C. Mc Clelland, of Baker City, were the men who washed out the boulder nugget Many $76 and tlOO nuggets have been found Uier. several of which will be seen In the Oregon mineral display at Seattle next Spring. For several years efforts have been made to obtain possession of water from the Eldorado Ditch In order to Insure continuous work of the placer mines, Ing terms of litigation and other causes have blocked the way until now. when the matter has been successfully ad Justed. It Is interesting to know that one of the first big undertakings with a view to Irrigating Eastern Oregon dry lands was the construction of the 130 miles of the Eldorado Ditch more than 30 years hco by V. H. Packwood. Mr. Packwood though quite old. m still living and is assistant postmaster of Baker City at the jsresent time. That he did his work when building the ditch well and with a view to perinanancy Is shown by the splendid condition it is now in although it 'has had little care for many years. Three hundred thousand dollars was spent on this one project at a time when money was not freely obtained for irrigation propositions. GOATS KILL WALNDT TREES JIDGE G ALLOW AT SAYS IIE KXOWS FROM EXPERIENCE. Turned Goats Loose Among Few Trees as Experiment, and Lost Every Sapling. ALBANY, Or.. Dec . (Special.) Judge William Galloway, Circuit Jungre rf the Third Judicial district, has solved the question, now of Interest among walnut-growers, aa to whether 'goats bother walnut trees. He says rh.v iln .TnHflro nallmz-Av lm ft InrffA walnut orchard In Yamhill County, near his home at MrMinnvlIle. and he Is able to give authentic Information to the orchardista who are planning the economical course of raising wal nuts and goats In the same field. For the past few months there lias been considerable discussion of this question among horticulturists and the statement has often been made that goats, while they destroy most vege tation, will not bother growing wal nut trees, and that to raise goats in an orchard would be a profitable side- Issue of walnut-growing. This question ra brought up dur ing an Intermission In Circuit Court here this week, while a number of orchardists were discussing the plan of vV. J. Giddlngs, of Albany, who Is de voting 320 acres of land in Lincoln County to the culture of walnuts, and Is planning to use goats to clear up the virgin, fern-covered land while the tre-s mature. "Gludlngs' plan is all right, because he is going to fence In his trees. " said Judge Galloway, who Is alive with In terest whenever walnuts are mentioned, for he Is one of the pioneer walnut- growers of the Willamette Valley, and has seen this Industry grow from nothing until there are now scores of orchards . being planted and maturing throughout tbis part of the state. "But I can tell walnut-growers that the goat plan won t work. I had often heard the statement In horticultural meetings that goats won't bother wal nuts, so I tried It lately. I turned some goats In an enclosure where there were only IS trees, and I am glad I made the test on a small number In stead of turning them into my big orchard. They killed all of my trees and no man can make this statement to me that goats won't bother walnuts.' WOMEN TO BEAUTIFY CITY Will Work Systematically, to Keep Albany Clean. ALBANY. Or.. Dec. . (Special.) Active work for the beautifying of Albany has been instituted by the Ladles" Auxiliary of the Albany Com mercial Club, under the direction of Its president. Mrs. J. K. Weatherford. Plans have been made for dividing the city into sections, each section to be in chsrge of a member of- the club, whose duty it will be to see that It Is kept clean and Impruved. The club will ask all residents to Improve their lawns and the streets in front of their houses and remove all obnoxious fences and barns. Albany is already one of the best Improved cities In the state as regards beautiful residences and lawns, but the Ladles' Auxiliary promises to make it even more beautiful. San-mill to B Estabislied. COLVILLE, Waali., De. . (Special.) Horr Bros., of Spokane, have pur chased the timber holdings of the Muiser Lumber Company, in Echo Val ley. 10 miles north of Colv.iie. and will establish a large sawmill ' Campbell's Lake, near the town of Echo. THIS POTATO IS GIANT TIBER RAISED OX SII.VERTOX FARM IS 18 INCHES LONG. SILVERTON, Or.. Dec 6. (Special.) A potato raised on J. M. Bur nett's farm, near Silverton, measures 18 Inches from end to end. and 12 inches In circumference. In the same potato field there were many others worthy to bear It company, but none so large as this one. UNDERWOOD SHIPS APPLES CARLOAD OF WINTER VAC IE TIES SENT TO .NEW YORK.' Wliite Salmon Fruit I'nion Pro poses to Build Cold Storage, Warehouse To Ship Berries. UNDERWOOD. Wash., Dec. . (Spe cial. The first carload of apples to leave this section was shipped by the White Salmon Valley Fruitgrowers' Union of Underwood, on November 2S. This was rather quirk work, as the union had been in shape to do business less than two weeks. The apples were mostly Newtoana and Spltzenbergs, and went to Rae & Hat field, of New York, who paid for them f. o. b. Underwood the same price they paid for Hood River apples this season Another car is being loaded for the Harvey Hotel Company of the Santa Fe system, of such varieties aa Ben Davis, York Imperial, Baldwin, etc., for which high prices have been received. The directors of the union feel much encouraged over the outlook and are pre paring for the future by arranging to erect at Underwood a cold-storage ware house 100 by 100 feet, a portion of this to be completed In time to handle the berry crop of 1909. The union plans to market all kinds -of fruit. Underwood is destined to be the main shipping point for the whole White Sal mon Valley, for traffic of ail kinds seeks a down-hill haul at all times, and when. In addition to a down-grade, there is a saving of several miles In distance, any other route is out of the question. The Cooks Addition people are plan ning to build a road to Underwood, be fore berry season, which will lessen their distance to the railroad by one-half. With hundreds of acres of young orchard coming on. with enough timber and dairy products in the upper valley to pay op erating expenses from the beginning, and ample power to be had anywhere on the river, an electric road from Underwood up the valley Is only a question of a few years. This section is especially fortunate in the class of men behind the fruitgrowing business, a great many of them standing in the front ranks in Portland business life, who are devoting their time, money and talents to bringing this country to the front. GETS $1000 OFF TEN ACRES F.lma Grower of Small Fruits Makes Splendid Showing. ELM A, Wash., Dec. 6. (Special.) John W. Hanshaw this week disposed of 10 acres of hill land, lying -north of town, to Henry C. Taylor, a farmer from North Dakota, for $175 an acre. The 10 acres sold is part of a 40-acre tract that Mr. Hanshaw bought eight years ago. He paid $6 an acre for the land, and at the time he made the pur chase those familiar with the land said he paid too much for It, and that he would soon starve out. Mr. Hanshaw was a man of limited means, however, getting on in years. with a large family to support, and could not buy a better place, and start ed to clear up the land. The first few years but little progress was made, but after that he began to realize an In come from the land. The land during all the time it has been cultivated has never been fertilized in the least, jet has retained its fertility. After de Wit' ' 13 $1 r :4;f-r-fni 1; an fi - '11 a J 5v .t-J J.

CUTTING UP BIG HOLDINGS Lebanon Landowners Find Ready Sales at Advanced Figures. LEBANON, Or., Dec. 6. (Special. ) The cutting up of the tuOO acres of the Paine farm into small tracts has at tracted more than a passing interest in this community, and It Is believed that It is but the beginning of many more like acts. The -owners seem to have Just discovered that men will pay much higher prices for a 10 or 20-acre tract than a like proportion for a large tract, and by cutting up these large tracts they readily pass out to small holders at high prices. A few months ago a stranger came to Lebanon and purchased a farm almost adjoining the town for $100 an acre, and many of the oldtimers laughed at the "greeny" who would pay that price for that kind of land. He cut it up into small tracts of from two to 10 acres, and In six months has sold enough to pay the $8000 he paid for It. and has half of It left, and is making sales every week. Other farms are now being cut up near here, and the town people are rejoicing at the new turn of things In the land deals. , YAKIMA IS FRUIT CENTER Statistics Compare Orchard Acreage With Other Sections.

Mrs. Eaton was commissioned to ascertain how the order stands In this county on the proposed measure, which will probably be intro duced at the coming legislative session. She has received replica from all the local Granges, which are unanimous In oppos ing the change. Colonel H offer, of Salem, announced some time ago that he would introduce u bill at the coming gfsioii of the Legis lature forming one board of regents for the two schools. Since then the Patrons of Husbandry have passed numerous res olutions expressing their opposition.

Z !t is seldom that a great spe- cialist will give away the secrets of his profession, but occasional- ly we find one who is more lib- era). tt A noted specialist on stomach disorders, dyspepsia and appe-n- dicltis says: "I always prescribe the following with the greatest success, for indigestion, acute or chronic; dyspepsia, sour stomach, distress after eating, surli as heart palpitation, shortness of breath, constipation, depression. headache and biliousness. Those simple but powerfully blended ingredients can usually be ob- tained at any leading drugstore, or the druggist can obtain them from wholesale firms who supply the profession generally with rare extracts and essences. Mix in a bottle two ounces syrup of Ginger, one ounce Comp. essence Cardiol and two ounces essence of Pepsin. Shake well and take one or two teaspoonfuls after each meal, or before, to excitrf the appetite. If necessary. For costiveness, a dose at night will do much good. Let children who have stomachache take this fr--e- lv. Adults can find nothing that will do so much permanent good and at the same time give prompt relief from distress." 1 4-1 "Fill 107.2
