Ti:; is th? course that has been adopted ty the business men j'id farmers of Eend, Prineville, Ma Iran and other points. With an ini tial capital of taO.OUf) they propose t construct a railroad from .Shanlko to the Columbia .Southern terminus, Jj Bend, SO miles. The people of Crook county have j;."oivn tiled waiting for railroad com panies to do something toward giving ci ntril Oregon transportation, and h-y are going to start in to build their own road." said Jesse Stearns, counsel tor the LiesC'huie.1 Irrigation & Power company. "The Wilson creek basin Ist year produced 1,500,000 bushels of grain. The production and crop output are rapidly Increasing year afy-r year. The rains this year have 'helped conditions and there la promise of another great crop next fall. The people are freighting everything In and out of the country, 100 miles and further They are getting tired. They have long deserved a transportation line from the existing roads, but they -ire jitill hauling their products to the ruaiei-i railroad, at Shaniko. "The city of Portland has an op portunity here to do something real lor central Oregon. It seems to us that the capitalists of Portland should b; willing to do as much for their own state people as tl.ey would do for the Uarriman railroad companies. "On a certain occasion when a din ner brought the railroad people and j tl.e capitalists together the latter of i ft red to take the necescary bonds to f, nance an extension of the Columbia : Southern from Shaniko to Bend. The : railroad company did not accept the ' t ffer. The people of Crook county now come forward with an offer to ! build the line and if the capitalists of Portland will make their former i proposition good the road can easily I be nut through from Shaniko to I lend. 'The farmers are determined to go j to extremes in an. effort to get tnis line. 1 ney wn go oui twin men teams and scrapers and will furnish f ed and do everything that can be done within 'reason to push this pro ject through. The road can be built and with reasonable assistance from capitalists it can be built quickly." It is said an easy grade, the maxi mum of which will be 2.3 per cent, has been found via Ward creek, and th;r? v.i!! be no serious difficulty n constructing the line from Shaniko youth ward. Some surveys have been made by Chief Engineer Redfield, of the Deschutes Irrigation & Power company, who assisted In the con struction of the original Columbia Southern. He has reported that it is practical to build a line that will serve present needs of Central Oregon. The distance from Shaniko to Mad ras Is 42 miles. With the line carried south even that far central Oregon would derive large benefits. The Columbia Southern railroad was built from Biggs to Shaniko largely through the energy of a few men and the efforts of the farmers along the route. The demand for the road was so strong that it could not be resisted. It was constructed in the face of op position from the O. It. & N. com pany, whose officials persisted in the assertion that the road could not be made to pay expenses. In spite of these mistaken opinions the Columbia Southern hag been a profit earner from the start. Traffic Ir. central Oregon has vastly Increas ed since that time. It Is known that an extension of the Columbia South ern to Bend would be a profitable line. That It would extend Portland's trade and develop the territory direct ly tributary to this city Is understood, t.'nder existing Oregon laws such l line could secure equitable traffic ar rangements with the Columbia Southern. TO INCREASE 1 I CATTLE SUPPLY. 1 I or a Agriculture Ii New Grazing Pendleton, June 22. (Editor East Orcgonian.) Under the head of pos sible sites for federal building, pub lished In Saturday's Issue of June 20, allow me to suggest block 74, now owned by Peter Medernach, Henry Schultz and Peter West, situated near both R. R. depots so that the R. R. could deliver the mall without any expense to the government. This location could be purchased cheaper than any of the other prop erty suggested, neither of 'which could furnish the 140x140 feet as re quired for the building. This block could be made a very beautiful park besides. The building could be erected in the center of the block, and trees could be set out all around the block and flowers planted between the building and the trees. Cement walks could be built around the block, and leading to the build ing from the four corners of the block. Benches (with a lazy back) all around and along the walks to the building. Fountains could be on every corner, and a tlncup so that the dry town could at least furnish a cool drink of water during the hot summer days, while sitting on the benches under the beautiful shade trees, admiring the flowers. Small tables might also be placed around the block close to the benches furnished with tablets. Ink and pens and people might answer their let ters Just received and not wait un til they arrived home, and then for get to answer. A band stand might be erected and whenever the band wanted to prac tice let them amuse the people sitting on the benches. Public speakers could use this band stand and chairs might be placed under the trees to nceommo- I date thousands of listeners, and not have to stand In the street In the! burning sun, like they did when Bry- j an was here near the court house I (for he is coming again soon). I I F'nrnii'ru tit ?: Ii ir..ri nt'ofi'twi.t ! could find there a resting place be-1 cause the saloons will be closed, j which was the only place for a far-1 mer or stranger, to be welcome and I rest when in town. I There being no public or private' park in the city, this location would j bo the only place for farmers and strangers, and In fact everybody, to find a welcome seat. I know of no other block In the city that can beat: this one for a postofflce. - Respectfully submitted. PETE It WEST.

'TO MAKE MEAI, I can householders is one of the prin cipal objects underlying the efforts of the department of agriculture to find a proteid that will thrive in the semi-arid regions of the northwest. Reef and beef products are said to have reached the highest prices re corded in 20 years and the dealers say that this Is due to the scarcity of cattle. It is to Increase the slupply of beef by incheasing the proteid belt in the west that the department of agricul ture has sent X. F. Hansen of Brookings, 8. D., to make a thorough Investigation of the plant life of Northern Russia and Siberia. Prof Hansen will visit the sections of Northern Europe and Asia where climatic conditions are similar to those of the semi-arid lands of Wy oming, ..Colorado, Montana and the Dakotas. If an alfalfa or clover can be found which will withstand these climatic conditions, 100 cattle could be grazed on the land now required for 10. On his previous trips Prof. Hansen found fields of alfalfa on the steppes of Russia thriving In a climate cor responding to that of the western lands, which it Is hoped will be re claimed through his efforts. Secretary Wilson first sent Prof. Hansen on an expedition for the de velopment of agriculture In 1897 Since then he has. made trips trlen- many for the department. As a re sult of one of these trips he Intro 'duced Into this country the Turkestan alfalfa, which forms one of the prin cipal crops. In the states bordering on the 100th meridian. liOM AM-HI.FA.

Iondon, June 22. -Chapel Royal, In St. James' Palace, was beautifully decorated today In preparation for tomorrow's notable wedding, when Miss Jean Reld will become the bride of John Hubert Ward. It Is likely that King Edward and Queen Alex andria' will be present , at the cere mony. Although the attendance at the wedding will be restricted to per sonal friends and relatives of the .bride and groom, the big reception to follow at Dorchester House, the Lon don residence of Ambassador Reld, will attract all of the social leaders of London. Harry ('. Ixlwarils Ilim Applied for a, l'aieiit for Ills Mill. Harry C Edwards, who fur the last four years has been connected with the Cyphers Incubator company at its mill In Kansas City, has made ap plication nt Washington fur a pat ent on a new alfalfa mill, says the Kansas City ,tar. The machine Is simple In construction, and the meth od employed in handling the hay from the bale until It Is reduced to a meal Is divided so ns to prevent the continual accidents and breakdowns that are so common In the present method. The fli'ht mill is now being Install ed at Fowler, Kan. Ilecnuse of the simplicity of construction, and the comparative cheapness of the new mill, Mr. Kdwards says there will soon be more alfalfa mills In Kansas than there are flour mills. "The demand for alfalfa meal Is rapidly Increasing," Mr. Edwards said yesterday, "the principal uses for It being In the manufacture of stock foods of different kinds by mix ing them with the proper propor tions of shorts, bran and corn meal. In this way It Is made to produce re sults either for the dairyman or the market feeder. Most Kansas farms will yield from three to four cuttings of alfalfa a year. And In the high, dry parts of western Kansas, where crops are uncertain and raised with much difficulty, alfalfa flourishes." "Selling an It does from $7 to $8 and )9 a ton at the farm, It Is the most profitable crop that these farm ers can raise. Resides It brings into the market and makes valuable land that would otherwise be practically waste." 1 Read the East Oregonlan. Finn Shoots Finn. A shooting affray occurred In the Finnish confectionery store and pool hall at Red Lodge, Mont., a few days ago, by which John Helve, a Finn, was shot through the fleshy part of the upper portion of the left leg by Ous Karvonen, anofher Finn.
