0 CLEAR LID
riter Says They Are Better
than Fire or Powder tor
Clearing Land. '
J. It. Sprlngor writes to Tho Ore
gonlnn ns follows concerning a sun
Ject of vital Interest In this section,
thnt Is tho clearing of logged-off
lands:
I noticed In Tho Orcgonlan of a re
cent dato n nows report of a meeting
uf rnnrnsnntutlvo 1IIU11 111 Seattle VO
discuss the problem of reclaiming tho
logged-off lands of tho Pacific North
west. Tho Oregon an also discusses
tlin minstloii editorially.
Stumping powder and grubbers
are spoken of, but iho most offcctlvo
plan to get rid of t'.io live growth on
tho land Is not mentioned. Of course
tho uoncral nrnctlco Is to slash and
burn, and where tho growth Is larao
that Is tho first thing to ho done, but
what about sprouts, wild blackber
ries nwd all wild growth that in
quickly cover the ground again?
Unless ono liuvo a largo bank ac
count to go right ahead and clear It
In nt least within two years ono will
hnvo much more trouble to clear than
If tho ground was baro of fresh
growth.
I have worked at that problem
with brain and brawn for tho last 20
j oars. Tho average settlor who
li'ckles such a proposition as to clear
himself out n home generally has lit
tle else but muscle to put' Into It, for
If lie bad money to buy ho would In
vest In Improved land. Tho easier
the job Is done, tho longer ho will
last to enjoy tho fruits of his labors.
A good fenco for goats Is necessary.
Any fence thnt Is straight up and
down, whether of rails, boards or
wlro, will do. Next, put a band of
angora goats on tho land and clear
as they clear tho brush off. Always
keep them threo or four years ahead,
If possible. Of course, that cannot
bo done to start with, but after once
iitartcd, by confining them on a small
place at a time, thoy will soon .?ot
abend. After thoy aro through, then
Is tho time for stump powder and
stump pullers.
If ono grubs land "out of tho
wlhl," on most lands, garden triicit
and crop generally do not do as well
for two or three years, unless thoro
has boon left a good coat of ashes
on tho bind by tho flro when tho slash
- was burned. Hut when tho goat Is
through with tho land tho latter Is
ready for a bunipor crop right off, as
tho goat scattors tho fertilizer pretty
evenly all over tho tract. While the
goaf Is busy clearing off tho brush
he Is paying tho owner for tho chance
In the silky fleece and tho Increaso
of tho flock. Ho will do tho Job boi
ler than any othor animal In exist
ence can and will turn tho foul
growth that Is a bother Into golden
Hiit'i'kloH whllo tho owner walls.
I believe It will bo a good Invest
meat for men with money to buy up
loggeil-orr lauds, fence them In
tracts, say not over 80 acres, and put
Augorn goats on thorn. When tho
goatH bavo Iho sprouts killed, then
the laud Is ready for tho settlor.
There Is nothing thnt grows that
the goat won't eat, and ho prefers
browse to anything olso. Tho fire
tiaps on tho burns that are such a
menace to standing timber ran be en
tirely eliminated by tho use of tint
goat.

"Lovo Forever" Changed In "Leave
INiivvcr" anil Young .Ainu Sikh..
NEW YOHIC, July IK An un
usual and yet easy explainable en or
In tho transmission of a telegraph
messago has resulted In a claim for
damage against ono of tho telegraph
companies for alienating a young
woman's affections. Tho message a
sent by tho young man read:
"I lovo you forever."
When It was dollvored to tho nd-
dresseo It read:
"I leavo you forovor."
Under tho circumstances thoro was
nothing for hor to do but to send
bnck tho young mnn's engagement
ring ami all his letters and accept an
other offer of marriage.
The company's defenso Is that tl
mistake was not duo to negligence,
but that the Morso spelling of "love"
and "leave." Is so much alike that
trouble on the wires caused tho or
i or. Tho word "lovo" has two dots
for the letter "o." and "leavo" has a
dot for "o" and a dot and a dash
for "a."
Hill',' TO MAKE
A GOOD DRINK
College Piofossor Tells How to Pre-
part! Loganberry juice.
fiORVALLIS. Ore. July 18.
"Loganberries make a most delight
fill beverage," says Prof. C. I. Lewis,
nt tho O. A. C. division of hortlcul
turc, who has been rcsponBlblo for
much of tho growth In popularity of
this delicious fruit In Oregon, ho
gives his method of making logau
borry Juice, as follows:
"Put tho berries on tho stove, add
Ing Just enough water to keep tho
fruit from scorching. Heat tho ber
ries slowly, mixing and crushing oc
casionally with a largo bpooii. bo
sure not to nllow tho borrles to boll;
probably 180 degrees would bo as
high a heat as necessary. After the
berries have softened, placo thorn In
nn ordinary cloth bag and drain out
tho Juice. This process can bo much
simplified by a Binnll fruit press.
With It the fruit can bo put In tho
press Immediately min" tho Julc
squeezed out.
"In choosing your berries, try to
get thoroughly rlpo ones. Put tho
Juice on tho stovo nnd ndd one-third
the amount of sugar, and stir occa
sionally until tho Julcols heated thor
oughly, but do not nllow it to boll.
If tho Juice bolls tho vinous flnvor
will bo destroyed and tl'o high aroma
as well. Iloltlo tho Juice, drlvo tho
cork In slightly, ana fill tho spaco
with paraffin.
"This Is a most healthful bovor
ago. One-half to ono Inch In a glass
of wator will bo sufficient. Some
people may dcslro to add inoro
sugar, though for some tho ncld
flavor Is most pleasnnt. Tho bovor
igc Is, I bcllovo, superior to grapo
Julro.
"Tho time will como whon Oregon
will bo shipping out train loads of
'his juice to tho oast nnd mlddlo
west. It will becomo a popular drink
In regions that becomo vory warm 'n
summer. It Is oxtromcly refreshing
nnd cool, nnd children can bo allowed
to drink It as much as thoy doslro.
"If you hnvo novor mado any
loganborry Jolly, I hopo you will do
so the coming year. It makes ono of
the finest Jellies known. Truly, our
loganberry Is coming to Its own.
With tho great demand for cn.in-d
fruit, a similar demand for the dried,
nnd with tho possibilities nlonir tho
lino of juices, syrups and Jellies,
there Is n grent futuro for tho logan
borry Industry."

,loss telography phonomonon has boon
iuscovor.eu at mo rauroau station of
