.... "STUBBLE FIELDS" OF THE NORTHWEST
... i'i . ....
A problem of considerable importance in Western Washing
ton and Oregon has to do with what is called "the lumbermen's
stubble field" tracts from which timber has ' been cut and
. which, though desirable for agriculture, can be cleared of stumps
only at a cost greater that the value of the land for agricultural
purposes, and to this matter the forestry bureau is now turning
its attention. Since the lumbermen harvested their wood crop
those lands have remained unproductive, for fires have prevent
ed forest reproduction.
It has been suggested that a saving can be made in the cost
of pulling the stumps if the stumps of Douglas fir are used by
distillation for the production of turpentine, tar, charcoal and
other products. There is no question that th fir stumps can be
used in this way, but the saving affected, according to the ' ugh
estimates which are alone possible under the circumstanoes,
would hardly exceed from one-tenth to one-fifth of the cost of
clearing at present, which ranges from $150 to $225 per acre.
In a few cases, where the land was not so heavily timbered, the
expense of clearing is a little less.
It looks as if the lumberman's stubbleai.eld can fie brought
economically under the plow only by the contrivance of some im
proved method for handling the stumps, which are too large for
the regulation stump pullet and are now removed by dynamite
and the donkey engirre.
may expect a blow, instead of being told "you're another."
Now that the kaiser has invented a car brake, it's up to Teddy
to invent some sort of a quick starter. His trouble-starter is a
world-beater all right, but it is old.
If precedent be followed, no man who is not an experienced
traveler will have a look-in for the presidential nomination in
tne future ;

an address In Mobile, Ala,
THIS IS MY 70TH HHITHD.IY
' An annual musical festival like that of last spring, when the
Chicago Symphony Orchestra appeared here in several concerts,
would be a splendid thing for Eugene.' It would give the town a
distinctive character and standing in the music world, and add to
its attractions as a place f residence for the best class of peo
pie. The editor of The Guard noticed in the last issue of "The
Musical Courier" of New York an article descriptive of the an-"
nual musical festival at Bangor, Maine, ocoupying several pages
and acoompanied by views of the cfty in general. It wfls a splen
did advertisement in line with what Bug en might expect if the
festival is made a permanent institution, as ft is aev proposed
to by. having it backed by a stock company. 'At first it may
lack somewhat of being self-sustaining, but in due time it would
grow to such proportions that it would in novise be a financial
burden upon the stockholders. There should be no troM in
teh securing of the necessary stock subscriptions.
An exchange severely arraigns a Tennessee jury for kneeling
in, prayer to determine whether or not the members had ren
dered a just Verdiot. Although it is not stated jimt in what man
ner the minds of the jury could be enlightened by their supplica
tion to the divine power, still the supreme court of the state bold
when the matter was taken before that august body-that
the jury could pray if the members wanted to, and it would in no
wise invalidate the verdict. But the exchange befort) quoted
odjocis io tne wnole matter on the ground that.it reflects on
the intelligence of the jurors. Our friend forgets that a juror is
not supposed to know anything, and therefore it is nothing to his
discredit. When he qualifeis for the job the man takes an oath
that he knows notWng. Then why should anybody really object
wnen ne only produces evidence that he,was telling the truth?
" 6
We all know that Eugene is growing, but few of us realize
the magnitude of building operations grjing on. One gentleman,
ronew arrival here, tells The Guard that he counted sixty-seven
dwellings in the course of construction during a walk last Sunday
in that section of the city west of Willamette street and he is
quite sure he did not see them all. And notwithstanding this re
markable building activity, both in the business and residence
districts, there is now apparently areator demand for dwell
ing houses, store rooms and offices than ever before in the his
tory of Eugene, AU of which goes to prove tlftt even a Western
Oregon town is capable of getting busy, simply by waking upo
a realisation of its possibilities. .
