FLIES DISTRIBUTE DISEASE
Professor Sweeter Vrges Extermi
nation of Summer Pests.
t'NTVERSITY OP OREGON, Eugene,
July 24. (Special.) Professor Albert
R. 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.

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.

PLEADS F0RSHADE TREES
Forest Grove Woman Protest
Against Their Destruction.
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.
