Description of Land Released 203,635 Acres Thrown Open, From Former WaMqwa National ' Forest The president has igned a procla mation eliminating 203,635 acres from the National Forest, Oregon. The elimination is- the result of a careful examination made by the U. 8. De partment of Agriculture during the past summer, which disclosed the fact that the areas now eliminated Were either open grass- land with verv little timber or timbered areas so largely flienatei- that farther administration by the Forest Ser vice wasi considered Impracticable. The lands released are not needed for watershed protection, and .. are not considered to be chiefly, valuable for National Forest purposes. The principal eliminations occur In T. 1 and 2 S., R. 47 E., T. land 2 N., R. 45, 46, 47 arid 48 E., T. 3 N., R. 42 E., T. 4 N., R. 42 and! 43 E., T. 5 and 6 N., R. 46 E., and T. 6 N., R. 47 E. In addition, a atrip from one-half to three miles wide is ellminatad along the southern bound- ary of the Forest, in R. 42 to 47 E. Section and the west half of Sec tion 6, T. 4 N., R. 42 E, la trans ferred from the Wallowa to the We nalia Forest, the area halng been Isolated from the' . Wallowa by the large eliminations, .,.-' - The unappropriated portions of Jthe-4 areas eliminated by this proclama tion will be restored to settlement and entry after having been adver tised in the local papers- by thei Sec retary of the interior, , cannDnnnanraaDa the American Famous x Ureo - 5 ; 43 WALLOWA COUNTY SHEEP TWO BIG TRAINLOADS SOLD BY LOCAL MEN TO MONTANA BUYERS. Yesterday began.- the shipment of forty-three cars of Wallowa county sheep. -Two hundred sheep to the deck and each car a doubledeck ag gregates 18,400 head of sheep In the two tralnloado. It is estimated that 400 sheep to) the car went, out, but It Is hardly likely that the number for the entire two-tralnloads would aver age that. At a conservative estimate, however, the number musj. have been at least 16,000 head. The ahipmenta went to Wyoming, 6 a ranch point Juot vet of Chey enne where they will be put on the range. Irving Dill and Walter Sheets accompanied the first tralnload, in the employ or the Montana capi ta which made the purchase. Ivan Jackson accompanied the second tralnload. Those from Enterprise who, among others, outside, sold she p were Lltch and Funk, Dobbin B'alconer, Graves and Raesdale. The Montana capital- purchasing this lot of sheep, according to re port, has purchased in the past nine months 600,000 head the Wallowa county bunch completing that num ber. Eight thousand head vere trail ed out of here, making, at a conser vative estimate 24,000 head of Wal owa county sheep that changed hands Thursday and Friday. The two tralnloads from here were ship ped to Rock River, Wyoming. It is telieved that they will be trailed tromi there intoi Montana,' when range in that state has been secured for the total bunch. POSTMASTER WEATHERS GET8 INCREASED SALARY. 'V'. ' - - r- .. Postmaster Ben Weathers was treated to a happy surprise by Uncle Sam the other day, when uncle Sam kindly informed him that, be ginning with July 1, the postmaster's a a a Cor. con on . . n a . . a fdi a r a salary at Enterprise would be $1500 Instead of 1400 a year an -increase o' $100 annually. This increase Is a reason for just pride on the part of everybody here. In that It is based on the increase in" the Enterprise mail. The mall volume, It may be safe to say, has increased fully 20 pf.r cent within the past year. All Mr. Weathers' friends will rejoice with him' both in the Increase of sal avy and over the. fact that we are growing so rapidly into a city. Joseph sjcured an increase this year also, making the postmaster's salary there from now on $1400 in stead of $1200 a year. Wallowa also secured an inciease of $100, making the salary of that office $1S00 Instead- of J 1200. Christian Chinch Childrens' Day Appropriate Exercises Vill Be Held Tomorrow by the Rev.
