(Oregon Journal.) WASHINGTON. D. C. March 12. Before the dopartment of the Intor .lor will grant an extension of five years to the state of Oregon for the purpose of opening up a 74.000 acre tract of land "near ''Bend, known as "Oregon List No. 20," the state must first explain to the department what It did toward improving the land. The It years allowed the state by the Carey act in which to irrigate the land expired in 1915. The state at lhat time asked the government to extend the period of time until 1920. but this was denied until the state should first make a showing of its work to the government. The state has failed to make the showing, aud the result has been that the land lias Jiot been opened. " It was learned at the department of the interior that many complaints have been received from civic orga nizations in the vicinity of Bend asking that the tract be opened, but the department is not anxious to go over the stato in this -matter. The land described is what is known as the Berthatn Falls project under taken by the Central Oregon Irriga tion company, which has other large projects in the same section of thy state. The Benham Falls project presents certain natural difficulties in irrigation, according to former Governor Oswald West, and the com pany has been concentrating its at tention on the other projects. It is said that there has been other delay in financing the Benham Falls pro ject. Classic Lines For the Formal Evening Gown A GREEK GODDESS.

The earliest locks known to man were of Chinese muke. Although It Is impossible to tell the exact date of those still extant, they aro wonderfully well made and as strong as any manu factured In Europe up to the middle of the eighteenth century. The Chi nese locksmith of today uses exactly the same kind of tools that his forefa thers had, for they are very simple aud primitive He carries all his Im plements lu two cabinets, sitting on one aud working at the other. When he has finished all the work available In one neighborhood he fastens the two cabinets to a bamboo rod aud slings it over his shoulder. He tramps through the towus burdened In this way and stops when he is called, much as a scissors grinder or umbrella mender does In our country. Wide World Magazine. Indian Relics.
