The school has been in session only a few daye, bnt tbe work is moving along nice ly. Since my former visit, the doors have been changed to open outward. The interior of the building has been repainted, giv ing the room a pleasing appear ance. The windows are provided with good shades and neat sash curtains. The walls are decorated in a very tasty manner. Castle Bock. On Tuesday, I visited the school at Castle Rock. Mr. J. A. Gib bons, who taught the school last year, is in charge.

Prof. Kicker and Miss Clara Vaughan are kept busy with the work. The school grounds have been put in excellent condition. The building is always kept in first class order. The people of Irrigon are justly proud of their school building and the fine grounds Burrounding it. The school sphit is good, teachers, pupils and patrons all being en thusiastic in their efforts to make their school the very best. The outlook for a successful year is bright. Teacher' Institute.

The deal consists of an exchange of property wherein D. I. Russell, of Los Angeles, California ex changes tne Corona and World Milling Go's big flouring mill plant in Los Angeles for the Campbell, Saoford, Henly Company tract of 2900 acres of farming land in the vicinity of lone. Mr. I Russell's valuation "of the mill property was S 100,000 and re ceived a difference in the trade of 820,000, thereby allowing a valua tion of $80,000 on the lands. Mr. Russell was in Beppner this week and is well pleased with Mor row county. He has been engaged in business for 50 years, but has now retired from active work. Rich Central Oregon. That Central Oregon will within a few years, double the cereal crop of the whole Pacific Northwest is the belief of Theodore B. tWilco, president of the Portland Flour ing; Mills. When opened up by tbe railroads now building, an im mense acreage will be thrown open to wheat raisers. "I Central Oregon," said Mr. "Wifcos, "there are millions and millions of acres of land, nnless I am greatly mistaken in the nature of the soil, which will be excellent for grain crowing without irriga tion. Out of this vast Jteiritorv there must be at least 2,500,000 acres available for wheat. .There is as large an acreage as is now in wheat in Oregon and Washington. All that is needed to open up this great territory is a railroad and with two lines now entering that section, it will be only a matter of a short time before the country will develop. Nor will the in creased yield reduce prices. With such a condition of affairs as now exists, there is no' danger of les sened prices through the exploits tion of wheat fields in Central Oregon."
