to Hi-it un to h s agreement wuu
them More taking action which la
calculated to tie up the telephone
and telegraph lines of five North
western states,
The proposed strike of the teleg
raphers, unlike the proposed walk
out of the electricians, will lie na
tion-wlde, but it was desired
that the two unions act in unity, if
possible. The electricians strike, if
called, will effect only five states-
Oregon, Wasnington. Idaho, Califor
nia and Nevada.
-The telegraphers declare them
selves ready to quit work one hour
after the order to do so lias been
received.
It is understood that strike senti
ment among the telegraphers In
creased greatly this morning when !t
became known that Postmaster Gen
eral Burleson had made a new rul
ing eliminating all overtime hereto
fore allowed operators. This rule,
In effect, Is that an operator who has
worked his eight-hour shift must
work an additional seven hours on
straight time before receiving over
time pay. In other words, his pav
for overtime does not commence un
til he is on his 16th hour's work.
Formerly time and a half was allow
ed for all time over eight hours.
CARRIER IMGEOX8 TO HELP
IX FIRE PROTECTION
Hood Rlvei Growers planning to
Increase pear acreage.
Homing pigeons will help protect
the forests of the Morthwest from
fire, It experiments planned in the
office of District Forester George H.
Cecil, Portland, result successfully.
' In accordance with these plans,
Forest Examiner W. J. Sproat, of
Bend, Oregon, who has had consid
erable experience in handling the
bords, will take five pairs of carrier
pigeons with him when lie returns
to Bend, for experimental use on the
Deschutes ..atlonal Forest. Forest
Supervisor C. R. Seltz, of Eugene,
plans to carry on a series of similar
experiments on the Cascode National
Forest. E. H. Bauers, president of
the Homing Pigeon Club, of Portland,
has furnished some of the birds for
these experiments.
Mr. Sproat believes that the birds
Can be used to good advantage for
carrylng messages, specially fire re
ports, between isolated points on the
National Forests and ranger stations,
and thus supplement the telephone.
They are expected to make communi
cation possible when for any reason
the telephone lines are out of com
mission. . '"
Mr. Sproat says pigeons have been
used as messengers for many cen
turies. Their use was so highly de
veloped during the Franco-Prussian
war that the Germans sought to
break up their efficiency by turning
loose hawks to destroy the pigeon
messengers.
The use of pigeons la fire protec
tive work is sj new idea which Is con
sldered well worth trying out by For
est officers In this District.

HEAVY KAIXS HAVE
SOAKED THE GIUH'XD
The ground In and around Ash
land Is wetter at the present tlm;
than It haa been for many years.
This Is due to the heavj rains thai
have fallen during the past month,
soaking the ground to a considerable
depth. According to reports of men
who have had occasion to excavate,
a bole In the ground will fill with
water almost as rapidly as the dirt
is removed, and In some Instances it
has been necessary to ball out the
water that will fill a hole faster than
It can lie made. This has been no
ticed only within the past month, as
earlier thw ground was so dry a few
Inches below the surface that a pick
could scarcely penetrate the soil.
