LIDS MARKS ERA
Vast Holdings of Heryfords to
Be Turned From Cattle
raising to Farming.
GREAT PROJECTS STARTED
Oregon Valley Land Company "Will
Put Famous Acres "Under Water '
From Goose Lake and Bring
in Colonization Scheme.
LAKEVIEW. Or., March 14. (Special .)
The passing of the "TO" holdings in Lake
and Klamath counties, Oregon, and Mo
doc County, California, is the topic of
conversation in Southern Oregon. It
marks the dividing up of perhaps the
largest landed holdings used exclusively
Tor livestock purposes and controlled by
one family in the state of Oregon.
To speak of the "70" ranches in South
ern Oregon, brings to the mind of every
one familiar with the country the thou
sands of acres of valuable hay and range
lands, controlling practically all of the
water of Goose Lake Valley and the sur
rounding country, that have been ac
cumulated by the Heryfords. Since 1878,
when W. P. ("Dad") Heryford and his
brother, J. D. Heryford, purchased the
little band of 1300 head of cattle owned
by old Jimmy Hoight in Goose Lake
Valley, the Heryford holdings have been
known far and near as the "70." The
Hoight cattle were branded with the
figures 70, and the Heryfords "bought
the iron." Everything In the livestock
line that was found on the range with
the "70" brand became the property of
the Heryfords.
Bought Only Irrigable Lands.
Since that time the Heryford brothers
have experienced the ups and downs
of the pioneer cattlemen: have eeen
cattle die by the thousands In a
hard "Winter, and have again built
up their herds until they ranged
over all of the hills of Eastern Oregon,
and brought in thousands of dollars of
profit. "With a policy of buying only
lands that controlled water, or were
easily irrigable, the Heryfords, during
the 33 years they have been in the cat
tle business In Southern Oregon, have
gradually become the owners of nearly
EO.000 acres of rich meadow, grazing and
timber lands. There Is not a Summer
range in close proximity to Goose Lake
Valley that the Heryfords are not in
terested in. Not a stream of water
flowing into the lake from the west or
north that does not furnish water for the
Heryford ranges. Hardly a buckaro in
Southeastern Oregon who has not been
"cow-puncher" on some one of the
string of ranches maintained by the "70"
interests.
"70" Holding's Sold.
This week the vast landed holdings of
the '70s" were sold to the Oregon Val
ley Land Company, a corporation which
is colonizing thousands of acres in this
section of the country. When President
Martin, of the latter company, bargained
for the Heryford lands, he secured for
his colonizing scheme the richest lands
of Lake County, and incidentally marked
the end of one of the most successful,
largest, and best-known livestock cor
porations in Southern Oregon. "When
"Dad" Heryford, known and esteemed
as one of the most upright pioneer stock
men, and one of the far-sighted, clear
headed, conservative business men, quit
the stock business, the most skeptical ac
knowledged that the day of the big live
stock companies in Eastern Oregon is
passing that the small stockman and
the tiller of the soil will soon supplant
the "cow man" on the vast and fertile
plateau of Southeastern Oregon. The con
sideration for the deal ran but little short
of the seven-figure mark, and the Hery
fords have yet to dispose of their live
stock holdings, machinery, etc.
Identified 'With State's Growth.
The history of the growth of the vast
wealth represented by the Heryford hold
ings is the story of the growth of South
eastern Oregon. "When settlers were
miles apart, and every pound' of flour
had to be hauled overland from the
"Willamette Valley, in Oregon, or Sacra
mento Valley, in California, "W. P. Hery
ford came to Oregon at the age of 25
years and began ranching on a small
scale. A Missourian by birth, Mr. Hery
ford crossed the plains to California in
1857, at the age of 10 years. After coming
to Oregon in 1872, he was joined by his
brothers, J. D. and tt R. Heryford, and,
they began running cattle as partners
In 1878 they bought the "70" brand and
began accumulating land with a view to
establishing a cattle business on a large
scale.
Always keeping the business strictly
within the family, their holdings grew
gradually until they became the strongest
livestock firm in this section of the coun
try. In 1S95 H. R. Heryford sold his in
erest in the partnership to his brothers
- and in 1902 "W. P. Heryford became presi
dent and J. D. Heryford vice-president
of the Heryford Land & Cattle Co., a
corporation organized to take 'over the
Heryford holdings. No one outside of
the two Heryfords and their children was
permitted to own stock in the corpora
tion. In 1908 this company purchased the
real estate and livestock of the Cox &
Clarke interests in Oregon, including the
"XL" brand. This greatly increased the
value and strategic location of the landed
holdings of the company, and made those
lands so desirable in consummating the
colonizing and irrigation schemes of the
Oregon Valley Land Company that the
lands were purchased.
Goose Valley Water Controlled.
This gives the Oregon Valley Land
Company control of the water of Goose
Lake Valley, and insures the early com
pletion of one of the most important ir
rigation projects in the State of Oregon
"With private capital put in the system
it will be completed in the shortest pos
sible time, and will furnish water to
thousands of acres of land at the lowest
reasonable rate.
Since the experience of the Klamath
people with the Government Reclamation
Service, Lake County people have hesi
tated to express a wish that the Gov
ernment should take hold of the many
available projects in this county But
these same people are delighted to have
the Oregon Valley Land Company put the
entire Goose Lake Valley under water.
The men in the employ of the private
corporation wearing , shoulder straps and
bossing the Job are limited in number.
Its engineers are the best all seasoned
una. experiencea men. The system will
be permanent, will be installed at min
imum expense, -and consequently will fur-
nisn water ax a reasonable cost, both
iniuai ana ior maintenance. The sale
or the vast holdings of the Heryford
Land & Cattle Co. has made possible the
successful completion of the Goose Lako
Valley irrigation scheme, and marks the
passing of the great public ranges. - In
its results the deal pulled off this week
will rank as one of the biggest in Oregon.

NYSSA WILL HAVE WATER
TRIIIGATIOX SCHEME TO BENE
FIT COO, 000 ACRES.
Eastern Oregon Town Three Years
Old "Is Already Assuming Com
mercial Center Importance.
NYSSA. Or., March 14. (Special.)
Nyssa is feeling good over the prospect
of a great irrigation project in the nature
of a high-line ditch. A large corps of
engineers is located a few miles south
of town and is making the preliminary
surveys for the work.
This project will put water on 200,000
acres of as fine 'land as can be found
within the arid regions, and Nyssa being
the logical trade center for all this ter
ritory, will quite naturally assume a
commercial importance of no small pro
portions. The land already under cultivation un
der the low-line ditches is producing
enormous crops of alfalfa, . fruit, etc.,
which are of the finest Quality. As a
matter of fact, no finer ranches can be
found in Eastern Oregon than those in
the vicinity of Nyssa.
A company has leased 250 acres of land
one mile south of Nyssa and is already
preparing it for planting to sugar beets,
from which they intend raising beet
seed. After many experiments in various
parts of the Northwest, the company
found the soil here superior to any other
for the propagation of seed. This itself
will give employment to 150 or 200 labor
ers and should this year's crop prove
successful, the company will double or
treble this acreage next year.
Nyssa Is also located In the very heart
of the natural gas zone. A well four
miles from Nyssa, 220 feet deep, furnishes
natural gas for lighting the dwelling and
for cooking purposes. The device for
confining the gas is very crude and, with
the proper apparatus, much more could
be saved. This well was drilled for do
mestic purposes and the presence of gas
at this depth is but potent evidence that
unlimited quantities could be found lower
down.
Nyssa is only three years old, but is
one of the most promising young towns
in Eastern Oregon. There are several
general stores, a good bank, newspaper.
etc., already established, and all are
prospering. ,
ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED
MOUNT HOOD ROUTE TO TAP
UPPER VALLE1P.
David Kccles, Salt Lake Capitalist,
Announces Road AVill Iiater Be
Run by Electricity.
HOOD RIVER, Or., March 14. (Spe
cial.) Having secured the right of way,
W. H. Eccles, president, and Charles T.
Early, superintendent of the Mount Hood
Railroad, announced today an extension
of the railroad six miles further up the
valley. The extension will carry the
road a distance of 21 miles from Hood
River, penetrating the heart of the finest
fruitgrowing and farming section in the
upper valley.
The right of way for the extension.
which will be built from Dee, the pres
ent terminus of the Mount Hood Rail
road, to the Base Line, was secured on
condition that work is to be commenced
not later than March 20, and President
Eccles says that it is intention to push
the work so rapidly that construction will
be completed by July 1 in order, to ac
commodate the big tourist traffic which
it is expected this year will visit Cloud
Cap Inn. By extending the road visitors
to the Jnn will be able to reach there
from the terminus of the railway by a
wagon or automobile ride of about nine
miles. They are now compelled to travel
28 miles by stage or automobile.
It Is stated by residents of the upper
valley and the officials of the railroad
that the extension will open up for devel
opment 15.000 acres of the finest unim
provedVland in the valley, and will solve
the problem of transportation that has
kept this district back. The land reached
by the new part of the road is already
under irrigation, and it also taps part
of the same section through -which it is
proposed to build an electric road.
The capital behind the Mount Hood
Railroad is that of David Eccles, the mil
lionaire lumberman and sugar refiner, of
Salt Lake City, and it is intimated that
later electric power will be substituted
for steam now in use, and other exten
sions made that will cover the entire
valley. The Mount Hood company, al
ready has an S00 horsepower electric plant
at Dee, part of which is used to operate
the big lumber mill, and in addition the
company recently ' purchased another
power site at "Winans, considered one of
the finest on the Hood River.
In addition to providing an outlet for
the fruit products of the upper valley.
It is expected that the extension of the
road will stimulate the dairying busi
ness which is now carried on there quite
extensively, and will result in the erec
tion of a creamery to save the long
haul by wagon to Hood River from where
the cream Is shipped to Portland.
The strawberry crop of the upper val
ley, which Is about 10 days later than
that in the lower valley, is also expected
to be largely increased by providing prop
er facilities for getting it to market
quickly, and valuable timber, which it
has not heretofore been possible to reach,
will be available.
Besides tapping the upper valley, the
Mount Hood road runs through the east
side apple belt, and 50,000 boxes of apples
, were tnis year supped vut over Its line.

HID EXPECTED
Malheur Irrigation Project to
Go Forward.
ONTARIO RAISES $2500
Commercial Club Will Actively Ex
ploit Itcgion by Advertising.
Oil and Gas Expected to Add
to Assets of This Region.
ONTARIO. Or.. March 14. (Special.)
Active measures are being taken by
the Ontario Commercial Club and the
principal landowners in this vicinity
looking to the revival of a great irri
gation scheme known as the Malheur
Government irrigation project. An
effort was made in this direction four
years ago. but owing to certain obsta
cles it proved abortive. The Govern
ment has promised to take hold of the
work as soon as petitions from 90 per
cent of the landowners are presented.
This requirement has been practically
met, and the people of Ontario. Vale,
and. in fact, of Malheur County are
Jubilant over the prospect. A large
fund is available for irrigation work
in Oregon from the fact that so little
has been done along that line In the
state.
The installation of this project
augurs well for the future of Kastern
Oregon, as it will reclaim 175.000 acres
of land which is now valueless. It
means that thousands of happy, pros
perous homes will be established
within a short time where now only a
vast waste of sage brush greets the
vision. The people of Ontario are
greatly in earnest over the matter,
and they are quietly, yet resolutely,
bending every energy toward' the ac
complishment of the great enterprise,
fully cognizant of the fact that with
the magic touch of water which is
obtainable in unlimited quantities the
soil will yield up "wealth beyond the
fondest dreams of avarice."
As indicating the fertility of the soil,
samples of alfalfa nine feet high are
on exhibition in the rooms of the On
tario Commercial Club. Fruits of every
description grow in abundance on irri
gated land here, and In size and qual
ity are unsurpassed. Truly it is a
revelation to the uninitiated who visit
this section of Oregon and see the
marvelous possibilities of the soil.
Hitherto little has been done towards
advertising this particular portion of
the state, but the people have aroused
from the lethargy that has so long
retarded their progress, and are now
making an aggressive campaign for
recognition from the outside world.
As an illustration of the spirit which
dominates the populace, a meeting was
called a few nights ago and the sum
of $2500 was subscribed by the citizens
of the town In 30 minutes for publicity
purposes.
Another industry yet in embryo, but
which promises to develop into a great
asset of this section, is the discovery
of natural gas and oil. Inside the city
limits of Ontario a well is being driven
which is emitting such a powerful
pressure of gas (struck at 2250 feet)
that the present equipment had to be
abandoned, and the management is
awaiting the arrival of special ma
chinery for the prosecution of the
work. There Is no longer any question
as to the presence of gas In commer
cial quantities, but the promoters are
confident that oil will -be struck, and
will not halt in their operations until
they have made an exhaustive inves
tigation. Ontario is situated in the far-famed
Snake River Valley, on the main line
of tho Oregon Short Line, and evi
dences are not wanting that here will
be the theater of great industrial ac
tivity in tho near future.

Everyone must realize the dangers attend
ing a severe cold, and that it is always pru

last. Many, however, do .tot feel able to
ose the time and will be interested in know
ing the quickest way to break up a cold and
to avoid the dangerous consequences which
Bo often follow. Druggists who handle all
kinds of medicine and are familiar with
prescriptions of the best physicians, know
which medicines are the most successful, and
when in need of a medicine for their own
use will of course choose the one which is
likely to be the most prompt and most ef
fectual. It has been observed that many

Different doctors have different Ideas In regard
to cures. Some call a suppression of svmptoms
a cure. They dose for drug effects and claim
that nothing more can be done. But the ral
aliment remains, and will bring the real symp
toms back again, perhaps the same as before,
but very likely leave the patient In a much
worse condition. 1 claim that nothing less than
complete eradication of disease can be a real
cure. 1 treat to remove the disease, and not
merely the symptoms. I search out every root
and fiber of an ailment, and I cure to stay "cured.
Weakness
I not only cure "weakness" promptly, but I em
ploy the only treatment that can posslblv cure
this disorder permanently. It Is a system of
local treatment entirely original with me. and
is employed by no physiciun other than myself.
This may seem a broad assertion, but It is Just
s substantial as It is broad. So-called "weak
ness'" Is but a symptom of local inflammation
or congestion, and a radical cure is merely a
matter of restoring normal conditions through
out the organic system, and tins I accomplish
thoroughly and with absolute certainty.
Stricture
My treatment is absolutely pain
less, and perfect results can be de
pended upon In every Instance. I
do no cutting or dilating whatever.
Contracted Disorders
Re sure your cure Is thorough.
Not one of my patients has ever
had a 'relapse after being dis
charged as cured, and I cure in
less time than the ordinary forms
of treatment require.
Examination Free
I offer not only FItKB Consultation and Advice, but ofeverv case that
comes to me I will make a Careful Kxnmlnation and Diagnosis without
charge. No ailing man should neglect this opportunity to get expert
opinion about his trouble.
If you cannot call, write for Diagnosis Chart. My offices are open
all day from 9 A. M. to 9 P. M., and Sundays from l to 1.
