La Pine, Or., July EJ. Jut before
-leaving Harrtman Lodge on Pelican Bay
the ' pathflndera i trom Portland era
shown a Japanese canoe brought to thla
-cuontry by B. H. Harrlman and tor
Bome time In commission at the Lodge.
At Yokohama, Mr( Harrlman was tipped
from th)a canoe and the boatmen rea
cued him. In return for which he pur
chased the canoe and the Johnson boys
' ore having it overhauled and a Japanese
sail set bo that the canoe can be used
this summer on the upper lake.
.;. ' Following the shore line of Pelican
Bay for several miles, through a fine
growth or pine, the party came down
Into the Wood River valley. The pilots
were James Patton, president, and John
32111s, secretary, of the Fort Klamath
" Commercial club, who explained the
possibilities of the country and' made
ft fins showing for their community. .
--76,000 Acts Irrigation Project.
At present, through the medium of
-the Weed canal, over 75,000 acres Is
now being reclaimed. When this work
is completed, and the land settled this
valley will be one of the most prosper
ous In the state.
Coming Into Fort Klamath, we passed
fields of Alsike clover and timothy the
equal of anything of the kind seen-on
the trip. The Alsike spreads each year
i and is rapidly reclaiming , all lands in
the valley as the. canal drains the sur-
.:fafe soil. .-
A new creamery has Just been com
pleted at Fort Klamath. It is of con
crete construction with an- English
Stucco finish on the outside. The dairy
stock predominating In the valley In
Holstcln and some fine bulls have been
' Imported to keep up the high standing
already established.
Good Buildings at It. Klamath.
All the members of the party re
marked that the homes and the barns
vera the-best type- seen on- the- trtp.-HTict
-"Farmer Smith, of the O.-W. R. A N.,
stated that there would be little use for
bis home lecture in the Wood River
valley as everyone seemed to have al
ready made his home surroundings all
that the most exacting could ask.
'On the farm of John Ellis, secretary
, of the Fort Klamath Commercial club,
a new barn has been erected td care
for 66 head of high grade dairy cattle.
There Is no better liarn In the state
and the Wood River valley was the
last place we expected to find so up-to-date
an institution. In the near future
When the drainage work is completed,
there will be over 100,000 acres In this
valley used for the dalrylndustry and
tt will give Tillamook and Coos county
a good run for supremacy.
History of rort Klamath,
Fort Klamath was established as a
. fort in the early '60'a and Indian folk
lore and history make a Stop here In"-
I-
r:.V
The pathfinders got a fine reception at Fort KlamatH.
terestlng, The old fort is less than
two miles away from the present town
and belongs to- an Indian, Jesse Kirk, to
Whom it was allotted as the chief of
the tribe. The father of Jesse Was
Chief Kelogue, a celebrated, chief of the
Klamaths. At one time Kelogue had
five wives, but. -one was getting old, so
he called a meeting of all the Indians
and: staged he was .going., to hang her.
A rope was tied around her neck and
thrown over, a limb, but Kelogue, for
some reason felt a little remorse and
stated that she had been a good wife
and if any of the boys wanted to buy
her he would consider an offer. A young
buck obtained the squaw for tour ponies
and she Is still alive to tell the story,
and lives at Chiloquln. at the Junction
of the Sprague and Williamson rivers.
Some 22 miles north of Fort Kjamath
Oater lake Is located. GQod roads lead
to the lake from Fort Klamath and hotel
accommodations are adequate.
Our party was accompanied some 10
miles out of the valley by a large dele
gation from Fort Klamath and among
the big pines goodbyes gjveru Mr.
Chapman. Farmer Smith and Phil Bates
expressed their appreciation of courte
sies extended and praises of their or
ganization work, fine homes and good
farming and the best roads In eastern
uregon.
80 Miles to X.a pins.
From Fort Klamath to La Pine Is
over 80 miles, nearly all of which Is
through a forest of yellow pine at an
altitude of over 4000 feet. The roads
were nearly perfect although here are
no settlements of any size outside of
Crescent, which used to be called Odell.
It Is hero that the Natron cutoff is ex
pected to pass down into the Klamath
basin from the Cascades and here has
been a postofflce for many years on the
old road to the fort. At La Pine, Dr.
Coe, who had very kindly made the trip
from Bend around the circle, left for
Bend with Mr. Sawhill, secretary of the
Central Oregon Development league,
and I. T. Hardy, of the North Bank.
Mr. and Mrs. Chapman, '"Farmer"
Smith and Phil Bates left for the
south to cover Paisley, Stiver Laks and
Summer Lake. At La Pine, Mr. Chap
man met his old secretary, A. R. Hill,
who came up Into this country some
time agfl for his health. He has prac
tically recovered and Is acting as sec
retary and treasurer of the Deschutes
Land company.
