P. C. HUNTER. Art.
Someday the Celio canal will
be completed. When the people
of Portland realize fully that its
completion will double the value
of every foot of land in that city,
and lots of it outside, ' the real
estate speculators and big land
owners will impress it upon our
Congressmen that they must
come through with enough to
complete it in short order. It
is of more importance to Oregon
and Portland than even the tariff
on lumber or beans.
Tt is rather soon to mention
Congressional timber, but Uma
tilla county has a man who went
to the legislature last January,
kept his pledge to the people,
didn't try to crawfish on any of
pledges and returned to the
jieople without any shadow of
cowardise, imbecility or dishon
e.sty. He comes from Athena.
livery once in a while some
new enterprise is projosed in
the section around Kcho. Some
of them are on paper; but we
have so many thousand acres
now under irrigation systems,
with good water in them and
plenty of it, that we are too
busy to keep track of the new
ones until the dirt begins to fly.
Wheat gamblers are playing
at selling wheat but when the
harvest comes, the farmer will
get beaten. When' the wheat
is all sold out anil the farmer
has none left then the gamblers
will get buy and the grangers
will be bereft.
Hy all means sHnd a million
dollars in the aggregate adver
tising the resources of all the
different sect ions of Oregon. It
will bring settlers and keep
them Invause we have the gtxxls
and can show the man from Mis
souri. Hut, honorable lords and
gent lemen of the boom and boost
clubs, if to your booklets and
letters you could truthfully add
one little ost script, it would
bring more people in a month to
Oregon than you now get in a
Special Sawed
- A - LUH LUMBER COMPANY, -
year. Tliat little addition would
be, "Improvements and imple
ments, live stock and stored
grain on farms pay no taxes in
Oregon."
It pays to beautify and im
prove your property, and it pays
a town as a whole to look as if
it were alive, proud of its exist
ence, confident of its future and
not ashamed of its apearance.
Taxation is to be studied by
the (J rangers of Oregon. It has
long been a favorite study of
corporation lawyers. As a re
sult of these studies the farmer
has caught the burdens of some
other divisions of society.
Ex Senator Simon of Portland
is the regular Republican nomi
nee for Mayor, and it is the
duty of every Republican to vote
for him- if he feels like it. If
the Honorable Senator will keep
enough of his friends in the
field as independent candidates
he will be elected.
In a country where 70,000 tons
of hay of the best quality of al
falfa is produced every year
there are bound to Ibo other in
dustries based on the hay that it
pay you to investigate. Echo
feeds not less than 9,000 head of
steers every winter on this hay,
which makes it the largest point
in the State for stock shipments.
Not less than 25,000 head ,of cat.
tie and horses are raised around
Kcho every year. Echo makes
good.
If the money spent by Umatilla
big grain farmers in Los Angeles
was invested for three years
where it was obtained we would
have the greatest boom in old
Umatilla the world ever saw.
In the East swine have to be
carefully fed and housed to
bring them to market size.
Around Echo they reach desired
weights when five months old,
and only need to receive a
little barley and alfalfa meal a
few weeks to be in prime condi
tion and calling for through
tickets to the Portland packing
houses.
Echo has good stores, well
supplied with all sorts and kinds
of household and agricultural
sunnlies. Thev can miote vou

tlo well and get as much for his
money as jntssible.
Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars made in Umatilla county is
j being loaned to Portland banks
instead of U'ing loaned to home
builders in Umatilla. Money
made within a few miles of Echo
is being loaned to outside bank
ers for half the interest that
could be obtained in Echo. The
Portland banker loans this mon
ey to home builders in Portland
on no better security than what '
the home-builder could offer j

Ryan has been a resident of the
county for 31 years and has beon
generally tegarded as of a quarrel

CARE OF SHEEP.
Protecting fhe Fleck In Winter Some
Points on Feeding.
The sheep must have a good shelter
from the snow aud sleet aud cold rains
of winter. A shed built against a
I large building and oieuiug to the south
Is the best for sheep In the winter.
The burn will be a splendid protection,
and the farmer who builds his sheep
shed against his baru Is wise, says an
experienced breeder.
Sheep hsre short necks, they cannot
reach very far Into a rack, and they
should not be permitted to do so If
they could bees use the chaff from the
bay gets into the wool, and this should
be arolded If pos
sible. It. U diffi

4-Ui the tack is empty. The rack shown
In the Illustration has a bottom shaped
like the letter W, with the middle part
the highest ' Cut crosspleces out of
wide planks similar to the way stair
stringers are cut and place them fire
feet four Inches apart. Nail sixteen
foot boards on these to form the W
sbaiied bottom, making the V shaped
troughs tight to catch the leaves and
chaff, and they may also be used for
feeding grain, brnn or chopped stuff.
The rack Is three and a half feet
wide at the top and sixteen feet long.
The spindles at the side should be of
hard wood, round. Small hardwood
trees cut lu a thicket lu the woods an
swer very well. They should be Just
wide enough apart to let an old sheep
get Its head through. It Is necessary
to hare the rack three and a half or
four feet high so the larger sheep
wou't try to climb Into It.
If there U not enough room In the
shed for the feed troughs they may be
constructed on the outside, but it will
be better If there Is space for them In
the center of the shed. The troughs
may be constructed in the following
manner: Prlve down pairs of stoh
altout twelve feet apart, net-ordlng to
the length desired for the trough.
Xall heavy crmutpleees to the stobs
Just alKiut a foot above the ground.
I The trough can he set on the cross-
plece ami willed there. It Is best to
make the troughs nlxmt eight Inches
wide and four Inches deep. The lum-
ber should lie good and strong.
J Oats, bran and shelled corn mixed
' make a splendid feed for sheep. They
' will te delighted with pnl clover or
alfalfa hay. When nlfalf.n Is fed they
will not heed so much praln. In fact,
sheep will nlmost fatten on alfalfa
alone. If it Is chopped up flue, so
much the liettcr. Keep salt near, so
the sheep can have access to it when
ever they please. It will tie a good
thing If they can ruu to a watering
trough that la filled with temperate
water.
