Sweetser, head of the department of Bloloizy In the University of Oregon, has taken as his motto "Swat the Flies" and preaches It wherever hj goes. During- the past semester, Professer Sweet ser conducted a popular course In sani tary hygiene in the University, In which 125 students war enrolled, and the evils of the?!y nuisance formed many of his texts. He believes that the fifes are one of the worst carriers of disease with which people have to contend and that if the flies were eradicated many diseases such as typhoid. Summer diarrhea, etc., would be far less pre valent. He believes that the fight against flies Is not hopeless, as many people think, and that if a systematic tight were made against them, as has been done against the moscjuitos, they could be exterminated- Professor Sweetser believes that the first method of procedure is against their breeding places. In large cities, stables ought .to be prohibited or else compelled to put all manure in covered pits or screened compartment, f-om which it should be removed frequent ly and spread on fields. When scattered In this way the drying process kills all germs. The swillpall is another source of trouble in cities, for it is rarely kept clean and covered. All refuse possible should be burned and the rest buried. All houses should be screened and es pecially so all places whers food and milk are kept. BIG GRAY WOLF IS SLAIN Animal Had Grown Fat Feasting on Farmers' Sheep. LYONS. Or.. July H. (Special.) What Is considered the largest gray wolf ever sejn in this part of the state was killed one evening last week by E. A. Taylor, a farmer living between this place and Mill City. Mr. Taylor had lost five sheep by some predatory animal and had deckled from the appearance of the wounds on other sheep that it was a bear that did the mischief. Vpon returning from work one evening last week. Mr. Taylor found that his sheep had again been tampered with and saw fresh wounds on some of fhem. With these wounded sheep to scent his dogs, he started up over the hills. Dark ness overtook him before the animal was brought down, but twice wounding it and both shrts taking effect In the legs he was able to get close enough to avoid the risk of hitting his dogs. Not until a few minutes before the animal was killed did Mr. Taylor learn that it was not a bear. The animal measured S feet 6 Inches from tip of nose to tip of tall and stood 2 feet 10 inches high. Its weight was esti mated at 90 pounds. ORCHARDS ON LARGE SCALE Minneapolis Company Is Baying Klickitat County Land. GOLDENDALE. Wash.. July 24. (Special.) The Minnesota Fruit Lands Company, of Minneapolis, has secured another Quarter section of fruit land which will be Improved and planted to trees this Fall. This makes a total of 560 acres held by this company In Klic kitat County. The Republic Orchard Corporation, also of Minneapolis, has bought a half section on the Little Klickitat and this, also, will be subdivided and set to Winter apples. This latter company, with a capital of a half million dol lars, it is expected, will gradually, ac quire large tracts near Goldendale and start extensive orchards of Winter .varieties. This comes partly as a re sult of the very attractive displays this county la keeping up at the A.-Y.-P. which demonstrate the keeping quali ties of the fruit grown on tha lands at RAILROAD PASSES THROUGH PROPERTY Not a half mile or mile 'away, but directly through TILLAMOOK BEACH. The P. R. & N. is under construction, guaranteed to be completed and operating daily passenger service in June, 1910. This line cuts the distance from Portland almost in half, and the time as well, bringing TILLAMOOK BEACH closer to Portland than any other coast resort ever platted or that ever can be platted. Within a few weeks this road will be completed from Tillamook City across TILLAMOOK BEACH. Work on the Portland end will be rushed until the two ends meet, and Portland spends its vacation next year at TILLAMOOK BEACH. PLENTY PURE COLD MOUNTAIN WATER From the hills and mountains Just back of TILLAMOOK BEACH numerous mountain streams find their way to the ocean across TIL LAMOOK BEACH, providing water supply the year round of the purest water. Campers throng to TILLAMOOK BEACH every Sum mer, finding there the very things that make camp life so restful and healthful This particular stretch of beach has been known and fre quented for years because of the many superior inducements it offers. Now for the first time, however, it has been platted and will be made to serve the requirements of a Summer resort of unique attractiveness. I 8 ffrif g: Tnj-Mtom.KcHMm S y Most Attractive Most Most Satisfying stretch of Pacific Coast beach and Summer resting -olace be tween the Canadian Boundary and San Francisco. A little over bU miles ana a couple of hours from Portland and for many years the Mecca of many thousands of residents throughout Willamette Valley. At the present time hundreds are camping , in this vicinity. FINEST SURF BATHING IN THE WHOLE WORLD Surf bathing of the ideal kind requires an absolutely smooth, hard sand beach, with no rocks, stones, holes or undertow. Nature has created these conditions at TILLAMOOK BEACH, making it per fectly safe, temptingly delightful, and has provided an abundance of warm loose sand for lounging after the salt-water plunge. The Sum mer sun seems more agreeable here than anywhere else, owing to the absence of winds. .By some peculiar trick of Nature, this beach is protected from almost every direction of wind. On the coldest days in Winter the temperature on TILLAMOOK BEACH is like that of the Summer. THE ACME OF OREGON'S SUMMER RESTING PLACE Oregon has longed for a Summer resting-place of just such kind as TILLAMOOK BEACH. Oregon loves the great water, the magnifi cent forests of Tillamook County, the enrapturing scenery along its wonderful coast and all the pleasures and privileges that a season at the seashore contemplates. Oregon people, consequently, will be more than delighted to know that the cream of Garibaldi Beach, seven miles long, one uninterrupted stretch, all that makes a vacation by the sea so replete with satisfaction, has been platted under the familiar Ore gon name of TILLAMOOK BEACH. Its vast superiority over others suggests the idea of making an early selection, whether for investment or a Summer home site. COUPON C. E.

FOREST GROVE, July M. (To the Bdl tor.) In an editorial of recent date you call attention to one method of preserv ing our shade trees. Believing that more should be ald upon the subject I' appeal to yois for space to pursue it further, as It seems to me the old residents "here hardly appreciate their forest trees. This little town is riffhtly named Forest Grove with its many pretty homes, with their well-kept (rounds, where flowers riot In profusion, the distant pine-covered moun tains, with Mt. Hood, Mt. 9t- Helens and Mt. Adams, covered with their eternal mantle of snow, towering above the range, form a wall of protection and grandeur that Is ever changing in Its beauty and charm. To those who come here from the tree less plains of the Middle West and inter mountain region this sylvan village Is enchanting. Some of these new-comers have left large tracts of land without one tree to sit under. Is It any wonder they are loud in their praise of this tree ful town and are loath to leave the trees, cool nights and hospitable. Interesting people? No wonder one meets so many hale, v!g- orous old folk here, for to dwell among trees and birds and flowers Is to dwell in harmony and peace, and harmony and peace spell health, happiness and long life. On a knoll In the heart of the village are 30 beautiful acres which comprise the college campus. The Ivy-clad buildings stand amid forest trees. In a cleared space is an archery field, presided over by a fine old gentleman who is conceeded to be the world's greatest bow maker. Although I meet goddess-like creatures, panoplied with their bows, quivers of ar rows nd arm guards in place, facing' the target, fairly radiating vitality and grace, I feel sure I shall yet make the ac quaintance of Diana herself, for this must be her native sward. But, oh, dear, there's always a "but" or an "if" this side of paradise but the spirit of progress Is abroad In the land and the slaughter of the trees has begun. Cement sidewalks are desired and the maples, with then- spreading roots, so near the surface, are falling in many, streets I am told, however, that the Woman's Club is investigating the mat ter and studying different methods to pre serve the trees and still have the cement walks. The ladies find that Newark, N. J has adopted the following with suc cess: Small retaining walls are built around the roots of the trees before the walk Is laid. Others prefer this method, however: Cut the roots off the side to ward the walk. It is said the tree will live 10 or 15 years after this surgical operation and In the meantime other trees can be planted to take the place of the mutilated trees. A nurseryman tells me that the California walnut is one of the best. Its roots grow down deep into the ground: it Is a rapid grower and fur nishes abundant shade in Summer, drop ping its leaves all at once in the Autumn. , ' I understand the club has passed resolu tions, but as the secretary is away on her vacation I am unable to give them, but I'll lay you two to one It's a go, for I am mindful of the club women's doings In California a few years ago. In the commercial Interests of a syndicate it was proposed to buy up the big trees and send them to the sawmills, but the club women of the whole state got busy. I remember a beautiful, gray-haired woman told us the woodman's ax was threaten ing the Sequoia, that glory of California forests. She said: '"They are childless aristocrats and are B00O years old; that they were standing when Abraham bought that lot in which he burled Sarah;" and she appealed to the women to save the trees. It is needless to tell you, Mr. Editor, that those trees now belong to the Government, forever protected from the cupidity of man. While the oaks, pines, firs and maples of this enchanting spot may not be quite as old or as exclusive as the Sequoia, they are hoary with age and are quite as Inviting and restful. As I said before, I'll pin my faith on the women of this community if they will put their minds to it. The words of Mrs. Browning come to me as I write: A woman's will dies hard. In the hall, or on the swsxd. Tours for the trees. SARAH SANFORIX
