Fort 'Rock Or., June 18. To the Ed
itor of The Journal I wish a little
space In your paper to discuss the re
cent elimination of land In Lake coun
ty and the present and future of this
grand cow, broncho and sheep country.
Some 15 or 20 years ago I often
passed through this section of the
state, riding In a dusty rig behind tired
and thirsty horses or bronchos, fath
eroften making 20, 30 and 40 miles
without water. But things have
changed. From the time you near
Fremont, and from there on almost to
Lakevlew, one need not drive or walk,
In alraeot any direction, five miles
without coming upon an abundance of
water. Often the .wells are not more
tha'n one half or a mile apart; many
of them are 18 Jto 35 feet deep, and
with good water, too. In some local
ities there are wells 70 to 160 feet
deep, with windmills to do the pump
ing. These wells, In almost every in
stance, are in localities wher T wan
told In my earlier trips that It was-'
useless to even try for water, as one
would have to drill 1000 to 1400 feet.
A vast change has been wrought In
the past eight years, and especially In '
the past . four. Now you can travel
over some of the best auto roads In
Oregon and see barb wire fences for 20
miles or more In every direction. The
fuzzytall has almost eliminated him
self, and the people haye homes where
be and the sheep used to roam. j
Sheep Are Profitable.
The cow is here to stay for many
years, with an. Increasing demand, and
there Is a tendency to raise some fine
bred horses. Sheep, too, I believe, will
multiply when the farmer realizes, as
he ' will under education, that sheep
will pay him, not only in wool and
mutton, but also In fertilizer for his
land. Sheep are bound to become more
popular on these 320 acre tracts. Every
rancher should keep at least 100, and
every rancher vftjll when better Judg
ment shows that It's money to do so.
It was some time ago written that
this country was fit only tor Jackrah
bits, coyotes and sage. I see by travel
ing over this country that the man
who is tilling the soil and is using his
brains and muscle Is succeeding. It Is
true that many are doing little, but
that Is ' easily accounted -for. Some
took up land with the expectation of
selling out for a few hundred dollars
and hiking further. Many are too poor
to-do but little, and that class in
cludes the bulk. -
.The poor man has to travel in and
out, sometimes long distances, to make
a few dollars to live on during the
winter. He may be brainy and muscu
lar, but he's got to have staying qual
ities to win and most of these men
will win. Many a lonely wife is hold
ing down the claim for herself and
husband.
Women With Brains. j
I recently talked wth a woman who
had just returned from the east. That
family Is to make proof this coming
week. She said that during the five
years she was here her husband was
with her one year. There Is many an
- old maid holding down these tracts
with a nerve that is astonishing and
doing even better than many would-be
brainy young men. j
Another woman and her uncle have i
one of the most promising places in !
this community. Visit the place and '
you will see there Is "git" and thrift j
around.. A splendid crop Is growing;
the ground looks neat and clean. This
woman has Just received bacteria from .
the agricultural college to inoculate j
the land for a crop of dry-land alfalfa, i
and she is now preparing to sow.
It's no supposition; It's reality. All
this country needs is cultivation, i
Think of what this woman is doing. :
She knows the vast meaning of bacte- i
ria to farming. What a change our .
agricultural- college is bringing about 1
especially to arid soil! Think of the
vast benefits our farmers are deriving
from the agricultural schools. Again I
say, H's no experiment it's real.
Country Veeds Workers. ,
What the country needs Is workers
agricultural students .that are brainy
and ambitious. There are many prom-.
lsing young men and women in the ,
cities whose parents could well afford;
to send them here to a land of sun-,
shine and beauty, where opportunity is
unlimited. There are chances for for- i
tunes In raising stock and tilling the
land.
: There is plenty of room for the i
homesteader. There is land Just as '
good as any yet taken. A little frost J I
need not depend on farming for a liv
ing the bunch and rye grass will do
it for them. But farming here will
yet succeed beyond expectations.
The rush is on. Already little
houses and big 320 acre tracts can be
seen on every side, with now, and then
a schoolhouse. As I write I can al
most hear the whistle of the locomo
tive making Its way westward In the
cow country. Let her come; there will
be many patient waiters, and many
homes made happy by the whistle's
greeting. T. H. M.
STOCK -WILLED TO HIS SON
. Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Matschekv. yes
terday morning petitioned for the pro
bate of the will of John Mtsohek. nor
husband, who died June 13. and for her
appointment as ' administrator of his
estate. No estimate Is made of the
value of the .estate, which consists
principally of stock in the J. N. Mat
schek Candy company. The will leaves
100 shares of stock In the company to
a son, John N. Matschek, with Instruc
tions that when the son becomes 31
years of age, be shall take up the busi
ness and operate as long as it can be
operated at a profit. The residue is
left to Mrs. Matschek for Ufa, ,
