Fred Warnock Kntered at the Postofflce at Heppner Oregon, as 63Couii-ciiis matter. Thursday July 1, 1909 Future of lite Horse Industry Occupying such an important position in the minds of those interested in ngri cultural prosperity, the future of the horse must be regarded as a sabject of wide interest. Every now and then we Lear pessimistic Biatementa made as to the demand and value of draft atd light J.orsfs in the near future. In this con nection, it will be interesting to review tiie figures regarding cert nr. features of the horse industry in recent years. In !' X there were a trifle over 13,500,000 horses in the United States, while in 'XS there were practically half as many aiore, or nearly 20,000,0?0. The value of horses in the United States in 1900 was placed at $603,000,000, while the Talue for 1938 was put at three times as much, which is, indeed, an interesting act and bears out the statement which we have frequently made that there la a ifroiUDg demand for horses every vear. Tnia io the only way that this large in crease in value can be accounted for. Tbe iaats are still more interesting when we consider the rapid increase in the Dumber of automobiles in the period doubt be for a better class. Speed and stamina wiil ba more sought, as Ihe ad vantage of rahid transit has been illus trated in a very conclusive manner since the introduction of tt.e auton obile. Ii ihe latest tvpes f automobiles, or those which wiil be evolved the next few years prove to be practical for c?nii!ry diiviru under all conditions, it is not impossible to believe that a better class of heavy- horses will be kept on the farm. Thisl would be true on account of the fact that there wou'd be less of a demand for the mediuri weight orgeneral purpose horse since the farm horse would be uaed sole ly for work in the field, and the extreme heavy drafter would be more widely adopted Iowa Homestead. States Co-operate With Forest Service to Ob tain Forest Fire Statistics. State officials, associations, and individuals will co-operate with the United States Forest Service in an attempt to get accurate records of all fire looses in Washington and Oregon this summer. The Forest Service will compile a report show ing bv counties, the area burned over, of merchantable timber, non merchantable timber, and cat over land; the quantity and value of the timber destroyed, and the cost of fighting tne fires. In this way the Federal and State Governments as well as the public will be enabled to obtain at once systematic infot- aretween 19C0 and 190S It will be seen mation concerning all fire losses in fcbat the borse not only he'd his on daring this Deriod, but increased in pop ularity and value. The fact wilt seem to indicate that we are further than ever from the time when we can supplant the Ii )rae with steam, electric, or gas power. The automobile is baviog the same effeot n the horse industry that the bicycle Had, but of course in a larger way. There were many who predicted that the bi cycle would greatly reduce the future de stand for hortes; however, everyone has had an opportunity to witness the fallacy f the argument. The horses which are taw supplanted by the bicycle would in deed make a very insignificant number, for the bicycle i8 now chiefly used by tl.oee who can not afford to own horses. A good many have ventured the pre diction that the popularity of the auto mobile among farmers would to an ex tent rtduce their interest in horses. This rtay be true to a certain extent, yet we doubt if the bor e industry would suffer an? ii any farmer in the count'v took up the more rapid mode of travel;ng. The majority of farmers have always held that the keeping of driving horses is too expensive and, while it must be admit ted that it is equally expensive to main tain an automobile, the saving of time which tan be made in traveling to and from, town or elsewhere with an automo bile offsets considerably the cot of main tenance. It is not difficult to Imagine that the introduction of the automobile wiil Lave a favorable influence on both Iirfit end heavy horses. The demand these states. Heretofore, this information has been only partially collected. The Forest Service has secured compre hensive reports from rangers on the National Forests, but from no other sourca. The State and Gov ernment statistics were in different form and not brought together. Consequently, although those in terested in the subject know in a general way, that fire entails an enormous loss to the community every year, they have been unable ial action ith any definite proof.

Not ouly are whiskered gentlemen ineligible for jury duty, but their usefulness as congress men has ceased, according to Mr. Lyon. It happened this way: Repre sentative William Russell Ellis, who hails from Pendleton, Oregon, and is the duly accredited ambas sador from some 300,000 citizens, bad a fine set of whiskers. They were admired of all whiskers in cocgre68. Snowy white for Mr. Ellis never chews tobacco they wera as homelike as a set of in stallment house lace curtains. In the languge of a house jimitor, ut tered today after the catastrophe, "Them was beautiful whiskers." Today after Speaker Cannon's gavotl fell and Chaplain Coudeu had uttered a ferveut prayer, a gentleman at'ired in red whiskers entered the chamber and peated himself in R 'presentative Ellis' seat. He got to windward of a sunbeam and shone resplendent in pinker whiskers than Senator Pel fer ever aspired to. "Hist!"' said Doorkeeper Lyon "There is a butter-in." Then he started for Mr. Pink Whiskers to put a set of ball-bear ing castors under him. - "Beware!? said Aid - de - Camp Kennedy, "that is Representative Ellis." "Ellis has white whiskers," falt ered Lyon. "This man's are red.' "S-h-," answered Kennedy, "they might bear about the switch out in Oregon." A big chicken ranch will b started near Lakeview.
