WILLIAM COSNERLEy, Prop., Successtor to Hays & Connerley. c,R'Dept Agent of People In the Mlcdle States Says Homeseek'ers Can Be Brought Here If Efforts Are Put Forth. Tho tldo of Immigration Is begin nlng to turn this way afciiln. With tho first lay of September opened tho liomcsetiKers' rates fiom t'-.e East and MIdle States. Most of them are bound for Portland and Spokane. Some stop off here, but tho larger portion go farther on. Tickets can bo purchased to Portland for just $2.50 more than to Pendleton and tho homcseeker goes to Portland because ho 'bas heard more of that city and country surrounding It than they lipvo of Pendleton and Umatilla county. For this reason they hnvo drawn the conclusion that Portland Is the place to go, and they miss Eastern Oregon, which Is tho garden spot of the West. While many of the people coming are from all over the East, it Is said that thi Westward movement will bo heaviest this fall from Tennessee and Kentucky. J. C. Fogerty, who was 'n town recently, is representing these states and Is looking for land to set tle families. Speaking of Eastern Or edgn and Washington and the coming of people to these two states, Mr. Fogerty said: "Beginning with the first of this month, a great exodus from the Mid dle Western States to this section of the Northwest tarted. If Umatilla county- wants Its share of these peo ple coming to this section to make homes it ought to get out circulars and printed matter to be scattered among these people telling them what Kinu 01 a country is nere, wnen dis tributed by immigration agenfs this matter is of great value to the coun try and turns many faces this way. Judging from what I have seen of this country there Is room here for many more people nnd the half of the good things about tho country has not been told to Easterners. I think this Is jiiFt the place for the people among whom I am going to work. "Kentucky and Tennessee are the two particular states that have been left to me to work, but they are not by any means the only .ones from which liomeseekers will come West this year. Printed matter descriptive of this section ought to be placed in the hands of every immigration agent as It will in that way reach those whom it is intended to influence more nulckly. "When the rush westward begln3 it will continue from that time on uiv til there is no longer anyone left :n the Middle States. This is not techni cally correct, but nearly so. There will be a vast difference in the popu lation of the middle western states after the present liomeseeker rush is over. Why People Come West. "People ask me why residents f the Middle West sell their farms and homes there and come farther West. It is easily explained. To begin with, you have here the ino'st beautiful country and pleasing climate on earth. There cannot be a doubt of -it. Anoth er prime factor is tile fact that land Is cheaper than in the country they leave. They have families and want to sell their farms there for, enough money to buy others for themselves and their children out in this newer section. "The people who will come from Kentucky will, for the most part, bo stock raisers. They will look foi grazing lands and will bring with them famous blooded animals from the blue grass section. This will in time become one of the most prosper ous stock raising countries in the world, but at present the animals are scrubs. With good Kentucky blood on tho ranges Oregon will make a name for herself in a few years. Tennesseeans Want a "Snap." "Tho Tennessee people are differ ent. They are seeking a place where they can live easily. They do not want to work any more than Is actu ally necessary and this country, where a man may be a successful farmer and not go on his land once a year, The climate here, too, is v. ell suited to them. Some of the most beautl ful women In the world re said to reside in the mountain districts of Tennessee and 1 will endeavor 10 bring some of them out here. Then the voting Oregonlans who have taken tin land, but are doubtful whether they can hold It because they cannot af ford to leave their employment to live on it, ntay marry handsome Ten nessee girls and send their wives to make homes on the farm. "But Iowa and Ohio will send thei peoplo who will be of greatest value to the 'state. They will bring divers! fled methods of farming, and then the name of wheat or nothing will die out after they have demonstrated their ideas are the right ones. They will not grow wheat alone. Tiey have learned that such a course is not the best one from tho standpoint of money making. They will teach the West ern farmer how to farm."

Bryson, of Walla Walla, has prepared a statement of his observa tions and beliefs relative to the graz' ing of stock on the proposed Blue mountain forest reserve, and gives it forth in reply to the argument of those who claim that the ranging of stock on the reserve would materially Injure the forests. Mr. Bryson says: "From careful observation In the belt which is to be included in tho reserve, I can, without hesitancy say that the timber feed In Ihe tiuiiuutlns which Is utilized by sheep, is almost entirely shrubbery, and what Is called by sheepmen browsing. You do not find grass In the timber, and feeding the tender shrubbery does not In any way injure it, for it grows up again the next season with just as luxuriant growth as before. It is self-evident that It cannot Injure tho timber Itself because the trees are not touched by sheep at all, and there Is no growth of grass except on the breaks and en tlrely out of the timber, excepting "pine" grass, which no stock will cat, and hence I claim that forest ranging does not injure the grass, "Then what inlury can come from pasturage ot stock in tho timbered belts of the Blue mountains? I may be very far wrong, but my observation In the premises Is that the only damage done actually done by ranging is the fact that careless sheep herders In former years would leave smoul derlng campflres, and thereby a Are might originate. But latterly all stockmen are very careful themselves, and have most stringent orders given not to set out or permit fires to start In their range. It ruins the ranging for a few years, and It Is to their ben efit to avoid fires. "While It Is without doubt true laat continued pasturage of pralrlo lands by sheep eventually kills out the grass, I do not believe that any kind of stock pastured In timbered )Hlts injures the same a particle. The only damage that emanates therefrom at all I contend Is not from the pas turage, but from the carelessness of those in charge of the stock. And it Is currently known, within the scope of the proposed reserve, that fully i)0 jier cent of the mountain fires of re cent years has been started not by the stockman, but by tho oarcloss hunter or camper. "Permit mo to refor to a feature which I deem would follow tho expul sion of stock from tho reserves. Cat tle and sheep will, of necessity, have to be run In small numbers on the holdings of their owners. This will greatly decrease, of necessity, tho sup ply of meat stock in Oregon nnd Wash' lngton, With an .ever increasing do mand, with tho growth and develop ment of the country, tho price of meat will assume a skyward tendency. Tills would affect ovoryono, for meat Is a staple article which wo all must havo, "I am ever In favor of protecting the forests of our country, and iiHlng all necessary means to protect the water supply of tho country as woll, but I do not bcllovo In ruining private Industry and business for something which, with its destruction, Is not benefited.
