Prof. Curtis Gives Oregon Live
Stock Industry A Boost.
Business men returning from
the East are unanimous in pre
dicting an enormous immigration
to Oregon during the coming
year. People residing in the
great cities of New York, Chica
go, Brooklyn. Philadelphia, Bos
ton, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, and
other population centers never
expressed so much anxiety to
bear about this country as at
present and the same idea is re
flected in correspondence of the
Portland Commercial Club much
of which is originating in the
cities named above.
Judge John M. Scott, of Salem,
President of the State Good Roads
Association, is conducting an
active campaign in behalf of the
Good Roads Meeting to be
held in the rooms of the Portland
Commercial Clnb November 14,
and 15. Judge Scott desires
that every comfnerical, industrial
agricultural, horticultural, and
irrigation organization in the
state to send delegates.
President Ed T. Juddofthe
Oregon State Dairy Association,
reports constantly increasing in
terest in the big state meeting to
be held in Portland December 12,
and 13. Constant additions are
being made to the prizes, and an
active committee is at work. It
is desired above everything else
that the farmers be present on
this occasion.
Oregon never receiveda stiong-
er endorsement than the follow
ing Ircm the pen of Professor
Charles Curtis, of the Ames,
Iowa, Agricultural College.
"There is nowhere on the face
of the globe a land or people so
dominant in the improvement of
live stock or so potent in the pro
duction of 'he highest types of
domestic animals as the British
Islands. There is nowhere on
the American continent a region
affording conditions so closely
allied to those of Great Britain
as on the North Pacific Coast of
the United States. The similar
ity is noticeable, not only in
cilmatic conditions and natural
environment, bu. also in the gen
uine enthusiasm and deep-seated
faith in the industry possessed
by tillers ot the soil."
The Commercial Club has em
ployed Mr. John Hartog, of Call
fornia, to take charge of their
publicity campaign at a salary of
$5000 a year. Mr. Hartog will
be an important factor in the
developnieut of OregoD, for Cali
fornia has never developed a
brighter man in the advertise
ing line.
An exhibit of samples of the
iron ore irom Columbia county
is promised at the Portland Com
mercial Club this week. The
development of oil in Western
Idaho and Eastern Oregon is
bringing absolutely new capiial
and new peop that no other in
dustry would have attracted.

"The Cow-Puncher Tonight.
"In a shallow gTave just six
by three, where the cyote howls
and the wind blows free, Oh,
bury me not on the lone prairie,"
is one of the songs sung in "The
Cow-Puncher" to be seen at the
opera house tonight. This play
is full of the atmosphere and
local color of the very heart of
that grand and picturesque state,
Arizona. , There is life, move
ment, animation and absorbing
interest in every act. The ad
vance sale of seats has been un
usually large. 1
About Homesteads.
All persons interested in gov
ernment lands will be glad to
obtain the information contained
in the following selt-explantory
letter received- from the General
Land Office, Department of the
Interior.. It says:
You are directed to at once
inform all newspapers in your
respective districts, as a matter
of news, that in all cases where
homestead entries are made af;ei
November r, 1937, commutation
proofs must show actual and cLn
tinuous bona fide residence for
th?fuii period of fourteen mo;u!is.
Ia all cases where tne enirit-i-were
made before November 1
iQ7, tbe rule heretofore existing
that six months constructive rr-.i
decce following the date o-
eatry will be c msidered as a par
the required fourteen m-ortb-of

Additional Local.
Complaints are being aeDt the news
papers in aurroarjdinn towns of a new
grafter at work among tbe farmers. The
fellow is a smooth individual who is trav
eling around tbe country in an ontfit that
resembles a huckstering wagon. He goes
to tbe farmer's house and asks the wife if
she has chickens for sale. Every farmer's i
wife always has some chickens for sal.
He asks to see them aad at once discov
ers that the entire flock is suffering with
some new disease that no one ever heard
f except "Mr. Grafter." He tells tbe
lady he has a remedy for this particular
disease and in exchange for some ot her
best looking chickens be leaves her a
package ot his remedies which prove to
be worthless and on the deaf he is just
ahead tbe chickens he secured in the ex
change. Watch out for the rascal, for he
is working this way. Have the bull pap
handy when yon see the description com
ing, and he will doubtless do the rest.

They are -still in the wheat
business in Eastern Oregon, ac
cording to Vance Taylor, who
returned from Condon, Tuesday. '
"Along the railroad track, every
little ways, there is a long plat
form and on this there are wheat
sacks often piled 40 sacks high,"
said Mr. Taylor in telling of his
trip. 1 he weather is warm and
dry at Condon, the dust is blow
ing aud threshing is still in progress.
"There are no good buildings
at Condon," was the Corvallis
man's statement, " as everyone
puts up a 'shack that will last
while he is making a stake and
then he leaves and goes to a
pleasanter climate." There is
no timber to break the monotony
of the landscape and the eye
tires of the flat land to be seen
for miles in all directions.
"But there is plenty of money
there, and when a fellow takes
his best girl out to anything that
is going on in the way of enter
tainment he always blows
from $10 to $10 for her, and that
is why some Corvallis girls who
are there say they will never re
turn to this city," said Mr. Tay
lor.
Price is no object with residents
of that section and they are liber
al , with their cash. But the Wil
lamette Valley looks better than
ever before to Vance since his
visit to this great wheat section.
