Shepherd, the well known woolen mill man of this city, has recently been Investigating the prospects for a woolen mill in Ogden, Utah, and while there is nothing def inite yet Mr. Shepherd is somewhat encouraged with the oulook for the industry there. Ogden is tributary to a great wool producing district and Is well supplied with transportation facilities nnd nil the markets can be reached easily from that point, and everything Is fa vorable to locating a plant there, if a suitable site could be secured reasonably. Ontario, where he has been holding meetings for the past few weeks. Mr. Cleveland held meetings at Ironsides, Hereford, Unity and Weatfall, all in the heart of the range country, and enjoyed his visit to that section of the state very much. He returned to spend the holidays at home and will return later to continue his evangeliS' tic vnrk there. Returns From Hie Wilds. Rev. H. C. Cleveland, pastor of the Congregational church at Freew iter, returned this morning from the r.tnge district in Malheur county, sout i of Successful Operation. A very successful delicate operation was performed by Dr. W. G. Cole and Dr. R. E. Ringo, of this city, and Dr. Hall, of La Orande. upon Mrs. John Hampson, of La Grande, at St. An thony's hospital yesterday evening. Mrs. Hampson was brought here sev eral days ago for treatment and yes terday it was decided that an operation was inevitable and the delicate task was performed. Mrs. Hampson recov ered from the operation and Is resting well today. A Totnl of Perhaps Three Thouuifl Acres Will Ho Subject to Entry nnd Settlement Later On Seventeen Thousand Acres Will Re Placed on the Limitation Clause, by Which Present Owners Cnn Retain Rut lflO Acres Under (iovernnient Water. Of the 20.0110 acres of arid land that Is to be reclaimed under the east Umatilla project, only about 600 acres Is now vacant and held by the gov ernment. This Is withdrawn from entry, and according to J. T. Whistler, will not likely be opened for settle ment until the project Is under way, or at least absolutely assured. How ever, aside from the vacant land there Is about 2000 acres of land now held as desert claims which the entrymeu will have to relinquish In order to cut their holdings down to the limit allow ed by the law. Consequently, when the project is far enough along for the land to be thrown open to entry there will hu something like 2500 or 3000 acres to be taken up by settlers. The latter amount would make 75 claims of 40 acres each. However, since those now owning land under the project will be allowed to retain but 160 acres each, something like 17.000 acres will thereby be plac ed on the market In 40-acre lots. While parties who purchase such tracts from the present owners will be compelled to pay for the land as well as for reclamation, they will have advantages over homesteaders which will probably offset this. The following section from the na tional irrigation law passed nt the last session of congress, gives the require ments of the government regarding residence, etc.: Sec 6. Tluit the entryman upon lands to be Irrigated by such works shall, in addition to compliance with the homestead laws, reclaim at least one-half of the total irrigable area of his entry for agricultural purposes, and before receiving patents for the lands covered by- his entry shall pay to the government the charges appor tinned against such tract, as provided In section 4. No right to the use of water for land In private ownership shall be sold for u tract exceeding 160 acres to any one land owner, and no such sale shall be made to any land owner unless he be an actual bona fide resident on such land, or occu pant thereof residing In the neighbor hood of said land, and no such right shall permanently attach until all pay ments therefor are made. The annual Installments shall be paid to the re ceiver of the local land office of the district in which the land Is situated, and failure to make any two payments when due shall render the entry sub ject to cancellation, with the forfeiture of all rights under this act, as well as of any moneys already paid thereon. All moneys received from the obove sources shall be paid into the rec lamation fund. Registers and receiv ers shall be allowed the usual com missions on all moneys paid for lands entered under this act. It Is Time To Choose Gifts From now until Christmas I In days will puss rapidly.
