OF IRRIGATION - i from a band of 60S range horses on their way to the railroad settled over coach nd pasaengers, and again whan a band of several thousand head of sheep, on .(heir way to the summer range in the mountains, obstructed the road. The relays of horses were changed with little loss of time, and the noon day meal at the Parrleh ranch, near the famous Baldwin Sheep Land com pany's headquarters, was eaten In keep ing with ne speed of travel. v - Wham Oovernor Bods a safe. ' Two years ago, when Oovernor Chant' berlaln and other members of the state land board paid a similar visit to this section of eastern Oregon, the route of travel lay from Kelaler station, on the BnnldKXineTU18 state, roaiktnroagn Madras and the Agency Plains country, mm taiier juei tnen emerging I rom wilderness- of - bunchgrans Into a grain producing region. ' Sunday this district wss left far to the west, and the trip continued down through Hay creek, wher a glimpse was afforded of the province owned by the Baldwin Bheep A Land company, -stretching tor miles and miles along the valley of the stream, thence up on the table land surrounding the. valley . and across southwesterly through the Lamonta and eastern -edge of the Haystack district. Thirty years sgo Oovernor Chamberlain rode through both these sections as a vsquero. Those were the days when fences were a sub stance foreign to the country and great bands of stock roamed at will through the knee-deep bunch grass. .Today not even the governor himself recognises the landmarks. Ranging grounds have given way to inclosed pastures, and the greater part of the land not given over to the smaller bands or stock has been converted-Into fields of waving grain. Cultivation and settlement have wrought the changes which lesvs the past char acter of theeountry burled too deep for recognition. Hundreds of acres of new land are being turned yearly In these two "districts,-- and thousands ' of acres' of soil that supported only sage brush have been tilled and sown since the governor and his party last visited Crook' county- two years sgo. New homes and new farms, new schoolhouses here and there bespeaking the growing population, abundant crops thrusting themselves In evidence - at every turn and a geneesl air of prosperity give this Sunday a vastly different aspect from that which It bore J 4 months ago . ; Are Bemarkable Changes. : Pwn through Loue plus ubm. which leads from the Lamonta and Haystack districts to the basin or Crooked river, the governor's party likewise noted as remarkable changes In the appearance of the country. :- Throughout the entire length of this valley region homestead cabins dot ths land. "Here again saga bruah and Juniper have given way to plowed fields and broad - expanses of grain.- Fences and new roads draw ths traveler's attention to the rapid develop ment taking place where the" new set tlers have established tbef homes, and In a region where water for all purposes Is hauled in water carts a distance of one to five miles. Well-drilling has yet to make-Ke-advent.-and only In a few places can water be struck at a depth which permits the pick and shovel to do the work, . , . , - South of Crooked river, through the six miles of land segregations of ..the Deschutes Irrigation eV - Power com pany, lying between the river and Red mond, the members of the party Sunday viewed the work of reclamation' which has transformed the "desert" Into - a broad area of habitation. Two years ago, when the members of the board drove through this section of the coun try, there wss not a house nor a sign of a residence. Sunday thay saw a network- of laterals feeding off the main canal, carrying water to the cleared ex panses of land and the numerous farm houses scattered throughout the half dosen miles xf the -company's 'segrega tion between' the river and- Redmond. Heavy growths of junipers have been lifted clean of the ground by the use of stump pullers; sagebrush, which 1s un usually luxuriant In this vicinity,' hsu suffered In the same measure, and ths work of clearing and sowing carried' to such an extent that the contour and ap pearance of the country Is changed com pletely. Oardens lull of vegetables and fields of grain silently speak a. welcome to the members of the land board who. few months ago, saw In their places nothing . save 1 a dry and barren aolL Water and the thirsty earth have pro duced a transformation whlcfc. Governor Chamberlain and other members of the party were not slow to recognise, and which called from them many comments concerning - the - rapid development aad aettlement of the district - under ths stimulus given It by the Irrigation com pany and the tatter's Work of recla mation. - t - - : Mew Town of etedaoadV "-" Redmond Itself Is a substantial little town of broad streets, whose gutters are washed constantly by running wa ter,; giving an odor of freshness and cleanliness. .The town is the product of the settlement of the Irrigated lands In this portion of the country, aided by the establishment there of the head quarters of the Deschutes Irrigation A Power Company, whose payroll-at pres ent approximates 111,000 a month. The first . buildings wers erected there a year 'ago. The growth since then has been steady- and with It Is displayed a thrift and energy savoring strongly, of mucn more metropolitan place. Within -the-' Immediate vicinity of Redmond there are 11,000 acres of Irri gable land. Surveys have been com pleted, laterals constructed and Inside of 30 days the work of reclaiming this, area will be complete. In other words, water will have been conveyed to each 10-acre subdivision of the entire tract. Of the total amount soon to be reached by water, 14,000 acres have been spi proved for patent by the state . land board, and the balance' Is Included In a second application for patent to 65,000 acres lying esst of . Bend. Governor Chamberlain and State Treasurer Moore' rpent considers bitm.t Mf.H.r rn4 Tuesday in looking over the latterarea to see that all the requirements of the contract which the company holds with the tatetisd been fulfilled. There Is a force of 1(0 men and 70 teams at present working1 In the three construction camps In the vicinity-of Redmond, hurrying the final work of reclaiming the tl.OOO acres adjacent to town, practically all of which have been sold. . As soon as. this work is com pleted the construction forces wll) move east of Bend and In the vicinity of Pow ell Buttes, where It IS hoped to reclaim ell 4h lend lylng In the segregation In that district before fall. Laterals and extension of the central Oregon canst here will 'W fed from the flume which Is being built at the Intake near Lava Island, eight miles south of Bend. Water will be carried- In an easterly direction some 20-odd miles toward Prlneville to In. In a continuous stretch around the western and. northern slopes of Powell Buttea. ; , . . ,a . . .

" You know If you "plant a grain of wheat or oats or-corn In mldsummsr whjCxe the ground Is molsf and warm It will sprout and grow "Kip very quick and rank and with a sickly color not strong and tough- and a healthy bright green as the stalks do when the grain Is planted In the spring. This Is because the heat and moisture sprout and grow It so fast In midsummer that It does not have time to develop the vital elements of the grain, while in the spring It is cooler, end Jnue elower In sprouting and growing, giving time for the grain to develop all Its nourishing, vital food elements. These same considerations are true In making barley malt , from which to. brew beer. The usual method l 0f making malt for brewing bei quick four-day procesi which c aklng malt for brewing beer la the compares with the growth of grain planted In midsummer and produces - a malt that larks the nutritious food elements of the barley. - - .. Pabst',- ths master brewer, found by experience that It. required careful steady sprouting for eight days to get all of the nutrition all of the Ufa-giving, strength-sustaining food elements out of the barley and Into the malt, and it Is the exclusive eight-day method or making malt that' makes Pabst. 'Blue Ribbon beer the richest and most whole some ss well ss the best flavored, and most mellow beer on the -market. Pabst scrupulously cleanly method Ot brewing with Pabst exclusive eight-day malt makes Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer the superior of all others. Doctors recom mend It because they appreciate that It Is absolutely clean and- the ' richest in food value. As one well-known Chicago doctor put It. "I prescribe Pabst Blue Ribbon and drink It myself because It la the beer that la never touched by human hands and never cornea in contact with anything but sterilised air from brew to glass." ., '- '.-" CHARLES KOHH A CO.

At the latter point, which is the headquarters of the Columbia Southern Irrigating company, they commenced the Inspection of the latter company's segregation, which lies In a oontlnuous body, embracing (0.000 acres and extending up the valley of the Tumalo toward Bend.

'"J4 wish to call the attention of you gentlemen to the apart ment-bouses now being built here.

"Not in a Doom mining nine tenths of "the rentals goes outside to pay the Interest on mortgages-would such structures be : tolerated," he cried. Before this Mr. Cook - had told - the committee of the shewing made by . re inforced concrete In the great fires of rllmore and San Francisco. He - laid ss upon the fact that structures con structed of this material are styled 'Class B" by Insurance companies, while those ot all steel construction are listed as "Class A," ..'

Chairman Shepherd expressed the opinion that any changes In the building ordinance should make It more stringent than at present, though the complaint has been made that It is too rigid now. A recommendation, will be made to the council regarding the fee for build ing permits. Tom Richardson of the Commercial chib has complained that the- present-4aw-4s-an-eneouragenent-to builders to underestimate the coat value of their structures, because the fee is 91 for each $1,000 to be put Into It, Port land's building . permjtsy therefore, did not make as good i conditions warrant.
