Hy permission of Kaad Supcrvis
or Slscmorc, Adam Kotr.mau has
made a notable improvement in the
ForuM road where it passes his
homestead. The old road is very
crooked and stony there. Mr.
Kot.mau did not wish it to go so
many directions over his land v he
has straightened it for a court of
half a mile, putting it on the west
liouudury of his tract for most of
the distance. lie has also taken
the uuinuious stones out of the
road, removing them mi far that
they will give no further trouble.
He has made a very ctedituble
piece of road and it will be appreci
ated by all who have occasion to
travel that way. Mr. Kotr.mau is
making arrangements for a water
supply for his homestead and he
cqwets to fit the place for stock
and then show the coplc of this
section what can be done here with
that industry.
Mr. Kotzmau thinks the townsitc
business here lacks syinmetry. The
embryo cities are strung along the
river for two miles or more and to a
notable degree they lack the ele
ment of coliesivnuss. There is
also too much sameness about them.
To relieve this disttcssiug con
dition, Mr. Kotzmau proposes to
plat a town on his homestead, out
in the desert two miles from the
river or any other water. He
thinks that would tend to scpiaie
up the situation. And the other
sites would be forced to unite in
friendship or perish in the unequal
Ktruggle with his metropolis,

Clicwnucnn liny Loss.
Sod is still burning on the lower
marsh and there is little likelihood
of it being extinguished until a two
or three days' rain occurs. How
ever, there is no great danger of its
again getting beyond the control of
the men who arc pntroliug the fire,
unless there should ic n terrific
whirlwind which might carry por
tions -of the burning sod into the
dry tulles and the fire gain head
way before the men could reach it.
The loss of stacked ami bunched
hay is the same as wc .stated hist
week 1 1 stacks for the 70 firm, 1
stack for Brnttaiu llros, and 10
stacks for the ZX company; be
sides each of those firms lost sever
al hundred tons of bunched liny'
and the pasture of the marsh for
the winter. Chewaucau Post.

work. It will Ix: soVoml days bo

one of the dimcultiori to be over
come, but it iri expected that the
whole sawmill craw will I put on
the flume upon the completion of
tint lumber bill, which will be some
time in the coming week.
It will take nlxHit a mouth to
build the flume. After reasonable
allowance for accidents and delays,
it is exacted that water wilt be
flowing through the flume by the
end of November., The slow and
expensive work will then be done.
A week or two later tin- ouch wilt
carry water down to Bend anil by
spring water will be delivered to
Forked Horn, a diMancc of 15
miles below the handwork. There
will be fully 20,000 acres of laud
under this ditch and the water will
be available for next year's crop.
In building the flume the begin
ning is at the. sawmill. Worn there
the workmen will proceed up to the
headworks, erecting the flume and
laying the working floor as they
go. Then they will lay the floor
and sides of the flume proper, be
ginning at the headworks and
working back down to the mill. As
the flume is completed the work
men will retreat down the line.
There will be 110 trucking or other
work over the completed flume to
injure it in any resjiect.
All the rock work for the ditch
between Uend and the headworks
is now completed. There will be
cause for a jubilee when the ditch
gcLs down to Bend. ,
