Is made of everv milling that Olympic Flour
is made of. One of the best bake shops any­
where is run in connection with the mill that
makes Olympic Flour. Every bunch of flour
that goes through the mill is tested. It has
to be up to the highest standard—has to make
the best bread possible, else it doesn't go into
the Olympic sacks.
That is the reason your bakings of bread,
biscnit and pastry are always uniformly good
when you use Olympic. Your bakings can’ t
be expected to be the same always unless the
flour is. Therein lies the beauty of using
Olympic.

states having homestead lands, in­
cluding Oregon, have received the
following instructions from Fred
Dennet, commissioner of the general
land office, approved by the secre­
tary of the Interior on Feb. 21, last,
extending the time for homtsleaders
to establish residence upon their
lands:
,
"The following instructions are
issued for your guidance in the ad­
ministration of the act of congress
approved February 13, 1911, ‘ Ex­
tending the time for certain home­
steaders to establish residence upon
their lands,’ a copy of which Is at­
tached hereto.
"The first section of the act ap­
plies
to
all
homestead en­
tries in the states named made after
June 1, 1910, and in such cases the
entrymen are given until May 15,
1911, to establish residence upon
their claims. It also applies to sol­
diers’ declaratory statements filed
in the states named after June 1,
1910, and such declarants are given
until May 15. 1911, to make their
homestead
entries
and establish
their residence on the land. If any
payment is required to be made in
connection with the entry under the
declaratory statement, as In the
case of ceded Indian reservations,
the act also operates to extend the
payments until the entry is made.
"The first proviso to section 1
of the act provides that the period
of commutation or of actual resi­
dence shall not be shortened. En-
tryraen who have taken advantage
of this extension
cannot submit
commutation proof until they have
maintained substantially continuous
residence for 14 months from the
date same was established; and In
5-year proof can not claim credit
for constructive residence for more
than six months prior to the date
actual residence was established.
"Under the second proviso of
section 1 the act will not be held
to defeat the adverse claim of one
who has prior to the approval of
this act made entry over a soldiers
declaratory statement where the six
months allowed the soldier for mak­
ing entry and establishing residence
has expired prior to February 13,
1911. Nor will it be held to defeat
a contest against a homestead entry
filed after the expiration o f six
months from date of entry and pri­
or to the passage of this act.

act and after the expiiatton of the
time allowed an entryuian for es­
tablishing residence on the land.
"Section 2. That homestead en­
trymen or settlers upon the public
domain In the Bt&tea and territories
above named be, and the same are
hereby relieved from the necessity
of residence upon their landa from
the date of approval of this act
to May 15, 1911: Provided, that
the time of actual absence during
the period named shall not be de­
ducted from the full time of resi­
dence required by law."
"The second section of the act
grants a leave of absence from
Feb. 13. 1911, to May 15. 1911, to
all homestead entrymen or settlers
In the states named In the first
section of the act. Entrymen who
avail themselves of this leave of ab­
sence during the time they are ab­
sent under such leave, such period
of absence being simply eliminated
from
consideration
in cases of
either final or commutation proofs.”
The act extending the time for
certain homesteaders to establish
residence on their lands, was pass­
ed
by congress this winter and
was approved by the president on
Feb. 13. last.
It Is given in full
below:
"B e It enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the Uni­
ted states of America In congress
assembled, that all persons who hav
heretofore filed declaratory state­
ments or made homestead entries
In the
states of North Dakota,
South Dakota,
Nebraska,
Idaho,
Montana. Colorado, Utah, Wyom­
ing. Minnesota, Washington and Ore,
gon, and the territories of Arizo­
na and New Mexico, where the pe­
riod In which they were or are re­
quired by law to make entry under
such declaratory statements or to
establish residence expired or ex­
pires after December 1, 1910, are
hereby granted until May 15, 1911,
within which to make such entry
or establish such residence upon
the lands so entered by them: Pro­
vided, that this extension of time
shall not shorten either the period
of commutation or actual residence
required by the homestead law:
Provided further, that this act shall
not affect an adverse claim Initi­
ated prior to the passage of the
Dairying in Denmark.
The Oregon dairy interests will
do well to study that little kingdom
o f Denmark, which is ao renowned
for its dairy and egg industry.
That country has an area of only
9 . 375.403 areas, of which one third
is arable, and one third is dairy
pasture. The population is about
2 , 500 , 000 , o f whom over 50 per
cent are the cultivators and sup­
pliers of the sod.
These Danish
farmers, besides supplying
Ihe
national food, exported to Ungland
in 1906 butter valued at $ 45 , 000 ,
000 , bacon at $ 23 , 000 , 000 , eggs at
$ 7 , 000 , 000 , making a grand totul
of $ 75 , 000 , 000 .
Tbis outcome
from the industry is solely due to
the «nited movement started by
the Danish
farmers’ cooperative
banking, marketing, distributing
and exporting associations in 1864 .

MYRTLE POINT.
The cafetaria dinner given by the-
ladles of the M. E. church on the
17th of March was largely patron­
ized and a decided success, both
socially and financially.
There was performed on Satur­
day, over on the North Fork, one
of those neighborly acta which go
far toward the promungatlon
of
friendly feelings, not often
met
with in this rather selfish world.
Thirteen of Henry Strong's neigh­
bors took their teams and
farm
implements and worked all
day
putting his ground in shape for
his crops. There were 10 teams.
Mr. Strong Is almost helpless from
rheumatism tills spring and did not
know how he could get the work
done. As he was confined to the
house he did not know anything
about It until the men wen*, up to
enjoy the bountiful dinner his wife
had prepared for his surprise par­
ty.
Such Christian acts do more
good than lots of sermons. Some
of those present were F. E. South-
mayd, C. Withers, B. Lang, Henry
Harris, Lee Ray, Ed Harris and
several whose names we did
not
learn.
J. Maurer, superintendent of the
cannery building, has been having
an attack of the grip.
Grandma Lee and Mrs. Gatchall
arc quite 111 with the grip.
Mrs. Ed Rackltff Is sick
with
qiilnzy, but Is much better.
Mrs. Ann Dickey and Infant, son
accompanied by her father,
Dan
Giles, returns to her home
near
Porterville, Cal , the last of
this
week.
Miss Mable Adams came up from
Riverton, where she is teaching, to
pass Saturday and Sunday
with
her parents.
Mrs E. A. Southmayd met with
a painful accident by falling down
a flight of stairs last week, but Is
again able to get around.

HUMES' MAY RAISE
ISSUE STATE RIGHT
An appeal to the federal court to
prevent the regulation of fishing in
the Rogue river by the state of Ore­
gon, is the threatened move of the
Hume interests, who have tailed in
their efforts to re-openj the stieam
to commercial fishing. An injunc­
tion will be asked on tbe ground
that the control of the waters of a
stream are vested in the federal
government instead of in tbe state
Such at least is the information
brought hack by Ira J. Dodge
f ont Portland, who states that this
program was outlined by Ivan
Ilumasou, one c f the Hume agents.
Similar threats were made during
tbe session of the legislature by the
Hume heirs.
These contentions were then re­
garded as a bluff, to force the pass­
age of the bill repealing tbe initia­
tive bill. Tbe master fish warden
stated that the federal courts have
repeatedly ruled that the state has
the right to regulate fishing in its
streams, and upon these are based
all of the fish laws of various states.
However, if the threat is made
good, and an injunction is secured,
the R og to River Fish Protection
Association will be on hand to fight
it to a finish.— Mail Tribune.
