A REGULAR DUST STORM.
Prevailed Only an Hour and Did,
Little Damage.
Real estate moved at a lively rate
In Pendleton for an hour Monday
afternoon. Between 4:30 and 5:30
one of the most disagreeable dust
storms that has visited the country
jor years prevailed, although old set
tiers turn their heads to one side,
look wise and say, "there has been
-worse," when asked about It. At any
rate, the wind blew a perfect gale.
By 6:30 It quieted down until one
could see across the street. At 7:30
It began to rain a little. This glad
dened the hearts of the farmers as
well as the towns people, as all were
wishing for a good shower. Their
prayers were not answered, however,
and only enough rain fell to lay the
dust and cool the air. This morning
dawned again bright and clear, al
-though slightly cooler.
The only damage noticed by the
iwind was the blowing down and
-breaking of several trees, one of
them being the big box-elder on the
corner of Alta and Johnson streets,
in front of the residence of James A
Howard.

STOCKMEN RESOLVE.
Oppose the "Deadline" Established
by Certain Cattlemen.
The Stockman's Union, at a spe
cial meeting which was held in Shan'
Iko June 13, adopted resolutions
which are in opposition to the "dead
line" established by some of the cat
tlemen in various districts. The
sheepmen believe that the govern
ment range should be unrestricted
and open to all and not controlled
by individual stockraisers. The reso
loutions are as follows:
Whereas, every American citizen
has the right to range his stock upon
government lands freely and unre
strictedly, and
Whereas, certain parties have ar
rogated unto themselves the power
to say where certain citizens shall
and shall not range their stock, con
trary to law, right and justice, and
Whereas, it is impossible for the
sheep owned north of the western
extension of the Blue mountains to
find summer range on the north side
of said mountains, therefore be It
Resolved, while recognizing the
rights of others to Insist that we
shall not be deprived of our just
rights or our just Bhare of the free
government range.
That we will resist any encroach
ments on those rights.
That we will prosecute to the full
extent of the law any attempt by vlo
lence or Intimidation to abridge those
rights, whether by individuals or as
sociations.

SCAB TREATMENT
GOVERNMENT SECURES
POINTERS FROM THE WEST
Embodies the Information In a
Pamphlet and Distributes It
Among the Farmers and Stockmen.
The department of agriculture has
been getting some tips from tho WCBt
on tho treatment of scabies in cattle
and has embodied tho information in
a pamphlet for the fanners of the
country. An export of tho depart
ment visited varloiiB ranches of tho
west and found that the big cattle
raisers were way ahead of their east
ern brethren in tho way they cared
for their stock.
Aat a ranch known aB Langedahl,
IS miles north of Steele; N. D.. the
expert found a "model dipping plant
for the treatment of cattle mango.
"This plant," says tho pamphlet,
"with the exception of tho tank was
built by farmers. A threshing en
rrtno wna tisfid for heating purposes
by connecting a M, Inch pipe with tho
the whistle intake, tne wiubuo uu
ing removed, and tho pipe joined to
the union. The plant has a capacity
nf 200 head nor day. Its cost, with
out engine or labor, excepting the la
bor td build the tank or vat, was
$150. One person can easily lower
tho cage when loaded by taking a
hitch around a post, and It may bo
raised, as shown in illustrations,
either with engine or horses."
The following Is the sure cure for
mula to be used to kill off the pesky
scabies "critter:"
Flowers of sulphur, lbs 21
Unslacked lime, lbs lGft
Water, gallor.3, 100
"Place the unBlacked lime In a
mortar box or some other suitable
vessel and add enough water to Black
the lime and form a lime paste or
lime putty. Sift into this lime paste
the ilowers of sulphur and stir tho
mixture well. Be sure to weigh both
the lime and sulphur, and do not
trust to measure them with a buck
et or guess at the weight. Place
the sulphur and lime paste in a ket
tle or boiler with about 25 or 30
gallons of boiling water, and boil the
mixture for two hours at least, stir
ring the liquid and sediment. The
boiling should be continued until the
sulphur disappears, or almost disap
pears, from the surface. The solu
tion is then of a chocolate or liver
color. The longer the solution boils
the more the sulphur is dissolved,
and the less caustic the ooze be
comes. Most writers advise boiling
troni 30 to 40 minutes, but a much
better ooze Is obtained by boiling
from two to three hours, adding wa
ter when necessary. Pour the mix
ture and sediment into a large tub
or barrel placed near the dipping tub
or vat, and provided with a bung
hole about four inches from the bot
tom, and allow It ample time (from
two to three hours, or more if neces
sary) to settle. The use of some
kind of a settling tank provided with
a bunghole is nn absolute necessity,
unless the boiler 1b so arranged that
it may be used for both boiling and
settling. An ordinary kerosene oil
barrel will answer very well as a
settling tank. To insert a spigot
about three or four inches from the
bottom Is an easy matter. Draining
off the liquid through a spigot has
the great advantage over dipping It
out in that less commotion occurs in
the liquid, which therefore remains
freer from sediment. When fully set-

Body of Little Girl Who Disappeared
In October is Discolored.
Tho body of little Louise McCar
thy, who disappeared from ' St
MnrieB, Idaho, in October last, was
discovered by a dog on the lake
Bhoro at Eostport Saturday after
noon. It was at first thought whon tho
child disappeared that she, had been
killed by a cougar but an aunt who
had dressed the child the last time
she was seen nllvo recognized tho
little one's clothes by the clothes she
had on. Parties searched the hills
for weeks for the child at the time
she disappeared.
EXPOSITIONS INSTRUCT.
They Are to the Nation What Public
Schools Are to the Hamlet.
A Boston publisher, Robert A.
Roid, returning to his homo from tho
Charleston Exposition, mot the xa
mark of an acquaintance that the ex
position waB a failure by saying:
"One might as well say the schools
of Boston are failures because they
return no monoy revenues. It is a
mistake to regard expositions In any
other light than vast educational en
terprises for tho uplifting of tho great
mass of people, the -returns from
which aro mnny fold In a better
knowledge of one another and of the
progress of tho world at large. There
Is no other way to reach the people,
old and young, who have finished
their Bchool days, and whoBe means
of observation aro .circumscribed by
the usual business and domestic en
vironments. The Charleston Exposi
tion was a great success. If the world
has not found Charleston the people
of Charleston have found where they
stand with reference to tho world,
and great good is being realized and
must follow for years to come to tho
city and the state as the result of
thoir exposition effort and outlay."
