Hermiston, Or.,-April 4. Clarence L-.
Carson, district federal exterminator of
predatory animals in this section,
made a good record in trapping coyr
otes during the past month, securing
67. March Is the third month young
Carson has been trapping and is his
record month. Owing to the severe
weather during the first two months
of the year his work was not so ap
parent. The district fn which Carson is dep
uty includes territory south of the
Umatilla river to the Sheridan ranch,
west to Sand Hollow and north to the
Columbia river, this ground having
been well hunted over. by the local
trappers during the past year while the
bounty was high.
In order to hold one of these posi
tions a man must be experienced in
making coyote bait and scents and in
general trapping, a good marksman,
horseman and plainsman. He must
own his own traps, camp outfit, sad
dle; horse and packhorse.
The salary paid is $75 for the first
15 and S90 for 25 or over.
Carson is one of the youngest of
men holding one of these positions, be
ing only 21 years of age. He is a
natural hunter ' and trapper, having
spent much time along the river in
this occupation and is at home in the
saddle. :

ing In Tignxas let Mrs. Mailt Count
Machines on Columbia Blgnway.
Lloyd L. Mullt, vice president of
the Northwestern National bank, is
always thinking in figures, whether
ho is automobiling on the Columbia
river highway or sitting at his desK
in the bank. As In the case at the
bank, when there is any real work
about the operation he gets someone
else to attend to the' details.
Sunday, while riding out on the
Columbia river highway, he induced
Mrs. Mulit to count the auto
mobiles as they passed them on the
return trip. The Mullt party went out
to the end of the paved highway.
From that point to Montavilla they
counted 976 automobiles.
In one group alone was a string of
30 automobiles. There were two
blockades on the way in. One was
due to congestion, owing to an un
finished piece of paving and a second
to the fact of the single track bridges
that are met with in the course of the
ride. Mr. Mulit traveled 80 miles even
on his Sunday trip.

WILL INTRODUCE BILL
PERMITTING LIEN ON
IRRIGATION PROPERTY
Washington. April 4. (WASHING
TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.)
Congressman Smith of Idaho has a
bill making all public lands, entered
or unentered, within irrigation dis
tricts subject to lien for the pro rata
cost of reclamation. He contends that
this is needed to. bring success to many
of the projects.
Edwin Snow of Boise, former as
sistant attorney general of Idaho, who
as an attorney, has had wide experi
ence in irrigation matters, has been
in Washington conferring with Mr.
Smith regarding this bill, and in a
statement indorsing-It v--
"No company apart from the water
users themselves. In our stats, have
managed or operated Irrigation works
with- any continued success, and sooner
or later the management and operation
of these works pass into the bands of
Irrigation districts or private coopera
tive canal companies. For this reason
I am of the opinion that in an Increas
ing degree the future will see the de
velopment of Irrigation enterprises by
cooperative effort, either by public co
operations, sucb as irrigation districts
or by private cooperative associations
of the water users themselves."
Ho Bass Tor Security.
"The great obstacle in the way of
irrigation construction work by dis
tricts is the condition that Congress
man's Smith's bill is designed to rem
edy. The land included within irriga
tion districts being, of course, desert
lands, is rarely patented until re
claimed, and on account of the fact
that no adequate security for the .ex
pense of reclamation can be based
upon slch unentered or unpatented
lands, it becomes almost impossible to
effect this reclamation. I know of at
least three irrigation enterprises ag
gregating from 5000 to 15,000 acres
that will probably be immediately de
veloped in one small Section of Idaho
if the Smith bill becomes a law."
Advocates 10-Year Xdmit.
As a safeguard against imposing a
Ilea upon any land of the government
where reclamation is not actually car
ried out, the Smith bill proposes to
authorize the secretary of the inter
ior, after 10 years from the date he
has approved the plans for an irriga
tion district, to release any unentered
land for which water has not been
made available. This would establish
a 10-year limit for completion of work,
so far as an assured lien upon the-un-patented
land in the district is concerned.
INTERIOR DEPARTMENT
HAS APPROVED JONES
IRRIGATION BOND BILL
Washington, April 4. The interior
deportment approves the principle
of the Jones irrigation district
bond bill. but . suggests minor
amendments to the senate committee
on irrigation. The department declares
it desirable to devise a plan for co
operation with the states and their
subordinate agencies to extend the re
clamation area.
Senator Jones Is encouraged by the
report, but anticipates strong opposi
tion in the committee. Hearings have
been closed and he will urge early ac
tion. The departments have made no fur
ther reports on the land grant bill.
Chairman Ferris yesterday again
urged them to expedite action and re
ceived promises of early replies.

CORVALLIS THE RIVAL
OF OREGON CITY FOR
NEW PUBLIC BUILDING
Washington, April 4. Corvallis and
Oregon City are regarded as rivals
for a place tn the omnibus pub
lic building bill that Is to be re
ported within a few weeks. This Is
likely. In the end, to be an empty
honor, for unless there is a turn of
feeling, no general building bill will
pass at this session of congress.
Nevertheless, It may be of some ad
vantage to be included in such a bill,
for in the bye-and-bye, which most
congressmen expect will come, build
ings that have received sanction at
this time in committee will at least
hope to have superior claims.
Corvallis and Oregon City are not
far apart, and their public building
needs are not greatly different, judged
by reports made by the treasury de
partment as to postoffice receipts,
area required, and building cost. The
department has stated that a $60,000
structure would meet the needs at Cor
vallis and $55,000 would take care of
Oregon City, with an estimate of $10,
000 for a site in each city.
It is unlikely tha. In a bill such an
the committee is preparing two towns
in Oregon bo close together will be
favorably reported. While bills have
been introduced for other buildings
In the First congressional district,
the showing that can be made for
them Is considered less promising, and
the matter Is likely to resolve Itself
into a decision as to whether Corval
lis or Oregon City shall go Into the
bill.
