The "Lonely" Sheepherdor Is Not so Lonely as It Would Scem-0. It, A N. Reixiirs on Blue Mountains Are Permanent and Exhibit Fine En gineering Skill. Kamela, July 28. (To the East Oregonlan.) Every step one takes In this fruitful Umatilla county of ours Is a revelation. Yesterday while wan- derlng along the summit of the Blue mountains on the Umatilla side, 1 came upon a timothy meadow three or four acres in extent, the timothy being thick on the ground and high ns my waist. The seed had originally been scat tered there by campers and, taking root In the rich, moist mountain land, It had proceeded to cover the entire glade with a fine stand of hay. If this timothy will grow here at an altitude of 4000 feet, without cul tivation, why would not thousands of acres of the burned off and logged off mountain land produce fine crops of hay, under cultivation T If two acres will grow wild and yield a ton to the acre, why will not 1000 or 10,000 acres of the same kind of land yield well If seeded and cul- tivated properly? It Is another suggestion from the matchless latent resources of our beloved Umatilla county. It Is slm ply a hint from nature, a "hunch from the mountain. It Is a "handle' extended to the homeseeker. Will he grasp It? I would like to see a bundle of this wild mountain timothy at the dls trict fair next month. It is worth thinking about.

Former Athena Ranchers Report To tal Failures in Franklin County, Washington, This Year Crops oo Poor to Even Make Hay Cheap Land Don't Stand the Test, Ninth Semi-Annual Payment of Interest. The regular semi-annual Installment of Interest on deposits In the savings department of this bank will be due and credited on August first Same will be ready for payment on or after that date. Interest not withdrawn will be added to principal. Call and let us explain our savings department Commercial National Bank United State Depository Though Umatilla' county farmers may not get full crop yields this sum mer, they are fortunate compared with their brethren who left the coun ty a few years ago to buy cheap land In Washington and other parts of the Northwest. Writing to Attorney' Will M. Peter son of this city, Fred Rosenzwelg, formerly of Athena, tells a doleful story of conditions In Franklin coun ty, Washington. He was formerly In the grocery business In Athena, and left there to try farming near El- topla, Franklin county. This year Rosenzwelg had 1,200 acres of Franklin county land In wheat, and he writes that the crop Is an absolute failure. Not only is it so poor that It can not be threshed, but the yield was too slight to Justify cutting It for hay. Accordingly, his year's wodk Is a total loss. The same story is true of O. C. Beck and sons, who also settled in Franklin county, and there ere three or four other Umatilla county fam Hies there who fare the same. Several years ago Franklin county land was very cheap, and those who settled there made money through the rise in values. Also they harvested some very good crops for a year or two. But this year It was proved that the cheap land Is of Ilttlevalue in an adverse season. Improvements for Field Sdwol. The school board has decided to make some needed Improvements at the Field school. West Alta street The school Is to be connected with the sewer system, a cess pool being used in the past, and other repairs will be made. The "Lonely" Sheepherdcr. At the head of a deep, wooded can yon, a branch of Upper McKay creek I came upon a sheepherder's tent yes terday and at sight of the camp there In the woods, I moralized upon the fate of the sheepherder and my heart went out In sympathy for him In his j alleged "loneliness." But upon visiting his camp that evening I "took back" what I had said In sympathy for him and almost envied the entertaining versatility of his seclusion. In one corner of his tent was good phonograph and nearer It sev' eral choice records. For my delight he rendered two or three selections by Pattl, Caruso, Schumann-Helnk and other singers, a speech by Bryan a vaudeville selection and an act from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar." Under the head of his bed were half a dozen of the best magazines, (some of which I had- not found time to read) and at the foot of the bed lay well-thumbed copies of the latest novels. I looked at this bronzed son of the hills in genuine envy. - Here he may read, write, think, commune with nature, or be carried to the great con servatorles of the artists, while. the driven slaves "ot the city must bend over a desk day and night to meet the terrific competition of this soul less commercial age. Mountain Grade Repaired. ' One hundred thousand tons of rock is the estimated amount of rip rapping placed at washouts on the Blue mountains by the O. R. & N, this summer. For two months a number of work trains have been employed In hauling rock from the steam shovel at Allen spur two miles west of Huron, to the places washed out last spring, along Meacham creek. This immense amount of rock has been dumped at the washouts be tween Bingham springs and Huron, and It Is now thought the track Is Impregnable. The rock used as rip. rapping weigh as nvjch as five tons each and it seems that It will be lm possible for any freshet to move them. The engineering work exhibited In the permanent repairs made on the O. R & N. this season Is a high tribute to the skill of the company's officials. Forest Nursery Promised. The Wenaha forest reserve which encircles the town of Kamela, has been promised a forest nursery, seeding ground for forest trees. The rich soil oft he Blue mountains Is in viting to the forestry department and It is believed that enough young for est trees can be grown on a few acres on the summit of the mountains to reseed all the denuded land In the Wenaha and Blue mountain reserves. The forestry bureau gathers seed of forest trees and plants millions of them In favored spots from where the young trees are sent to the varl ous reserves for reforesting the burnt off lands. BERT HUFFMAN. New Case of Smallpox. Another case of smallpox is re ported, the victim being J. E. Han cock, who lives on Stonewall Jackson street His case was reported by Dr. I. U.
