Altnow was quite severely burned one day this week while robbing bees nt his home on Otis creek, says the Burns Tuiieri-Hcrnld. He had covered his head mid hands with mosquito netting nnd his blower used to smoke the bees began to burn free ly. Mr. Altnow raised it to his face to blow it out and in doing so it caught the wrappings he had about his face for protection. Iu at tempting to smother the blaze out with his hiiuds the coverings on the latter caught fire, Mrs. Voegtly came to his rescue, but he had a narrow escape, his face nnd hands being quite badly burned. lie fenrs it has injured his eye sight.

THE iESCHUTES .ftellONIUO., A LAND OF PROMISE Fertile Region Awaits Development. HOMES I;OK AlANY PEOPLE Twenty Miles South of Uend l.tcs District with n Bright Future as a Stock Raisins Country. A country that will some day be filled with prosperous nnd pleasant homes, with many sleek aim well fed cattle gracing on the meadows, fattened porkers grunting in the sty niid cackling poultry in the barnyard, lies a lew miles south of lleiul awaiting a development that is not far distant. Last Saturday a Bulletin representative joined a party of fishermen nnd drove to Roslaud, proceeding from there to a place on the Deschutes river known in local geography a the fish trap The trip took the party through a region that contains much promise. About seven miles south of Lava buttc, one emerges from the forest of fine western white pine through which the road southward from Betid passes and reaches the coun try known as The Meadows. Here for many miles along and between Little river and the Deschutes are many acres of land covered with a luxuriant growth of native grass. Horn these fields many tons of hay arc cut every year for winter fced-iuc. One of the first ranches is that of C. B. Allen, where large fields of rye and many acres of meadow land assure an nbundaut hay harvest for the winter. Mr. Allen's residence is only a few steps from the banks of Little river. Only .1 short distance front his door-step there bubbles forth a spring of clear, pure water that furnishes an excellent supply for domestic purposes. Adjoining Mr. Allen's place is the W. P. Vandevcrt homestead, where in addition to the old home stead Mr. Vandevcrt and his broth ers, Kicharu aim waiter, own many acres lying for five miles along the river. Mr. Vandevcrt has a field of rye that stands about seven feet high, which is filling out nicely with grain. It is estimated to cut a ton and a hall of hay to the acre. Volunteer rye also is doing well. The many acres of meadow, with the river flowing through, makes n pretty and prosjHirous looking pic ture. Mr. Vnndevert nlso has n fine, never-failing spring with water so cold that it makes your teeth ache to drink it. A short distance farther south one passes the fine stock ranches of S. S. Stearns, John Atkinson and Lee Caldwell. Mr. Stearns had quite a herd of young cattle glaz ing in a near-by pasture which were k and fr.t and iu excellent con dition. Thus one rnttcli alter another is passed until Roslaud is reached, where Jobe Bogue and sons own many hundred acres of valuable meadow and timber laud. Some day in the not far-distant future, an irrigation project will be launched in the Roslaud country that will re claim nearly 40,000 acres of valu able land. This project is now in the preliminary stages. The land to be reclaimed is yery fertile, free from rock, and lies in large level trncts. It only needs water to make it a great hay and lorage crop pro ducer, The land through this region, with the exception of the meadows and grain fields, is covered with a heavy growth of jack pine, with fine, large western white pine in certain localities. While this jack pine is considered worthless as lum ber timber, it is said to make good railroad ties and n recent test showed that an excellent grade of paper pulp can be made from it. Timber from which pulp can be made is getting very scarce and more valuable from year to year. Thus nnothcr menus of revenue will some day be added to this laud, About 15 miles west of The Meadows lies anoth or fine tract of meadow land knovn as Craiu Prairie, which, tfnde r the new law allowing homestead! I in forest re serves, will undoubtedly soon be occupied by horncifceaders. It is said that 100 claims or more can be located on Crain Prairie. What this vast region needs is railroad transportation and the above mentioned irrigation project carried to completion. With the railroads will come sawmills and settlers, when this, region will be converted into a great dairy nnd stock-raising country. The rail roads will come in' the near future. The next fewyenrs will sec a won derful development in this favored, country, bio paw at Redmond. Preparation Is rising Made for Fine Exhibition in September. Work in preparation for the Jicd-, mond fair to be held September 20- 22 is going on merrily. The var ious committees are hard at work,: and the premium lists are expected ; to be out in a few days. A high class of exhibits will be 011 hand and much first class entertainment is being provided for visitors. J4,xmbit5 arc open to Crook county nnd those contemplating making same should communicate with the secretary, E. C. Park. Pivc hundred dollars has been donated by the irrigation company for premiums, besides a consider able amount which will be raised here by subscription for additional premiums nnd purses. A cordial invitation is extended to the whole of Crook county and the rest of the state to meet with us and have a good time. WATER IS PLENTIFUL Supply for the Deschutes Valley Assured. EASY TO BUILD RESERVOIRS At tho Source of the Deschutes River Are Lakes that Can Be Dammed with LIUU Cost A RUSH FOR HOMESTEADS. many People Anxious to File on Craln Prairie's Fertile Acres. This week has seen much activity iu local circles regarding the filing of homestead entries on lands in Crain Prairie. This fine tract of meadow laud lying in the Cascade Range Forest Reserve about 35 miles south and west of Bend, is about oqual to a township in area nnd has room for many prosperous homes. Under the recent act of congress, it is possible that this land will be thrown open to entry, and many local people have taken the necessary steps to have their claims considered. W. P. Vandevcrt, one of the ex tensive stockmen in that region, who has cut hay from the prairie for several years, was one of the first ones to get busy. The prairie has been surveyed, Mr. Vandevcrt is acquainted with the locations, and during the last week he has been working to locate homestead ers on the land, getting them to send their applications to the forester at Washington. It is said that he has picked the cream of the lot. Before Mr. Vnndevert had shown his hand iu the game another party of Bend men had started for the prairie to acquaint themselves with the land, preparatory to filing their applications. It is thus probable that there will be several duplicate applications lor the same laud. Homesteads on Craiu Prairie are especially desirable for several rea sons. There is au abundant supply of water, three rivers flowing through it. It lies close to the mountains iu which stock can be grazed during the summer. It pro duces n heavy growth of native grass that cuts about a ton of hay to the acie. This selling at from $5 to $10 n ton will iu itself furnish a neat little income to the home steaders until they get their homes established. A railroad will un doubtedly soon cross the prairie, and with its numerous advantages it will some day be a wealthy and prosperous community. Wanted.

All sizes, broken aud unbroken, at Erickson's ranch, Bear Creek; 17-20 , As the question of irrigation is studied more thoroughly, the im portant part it will bear to the lifo and development of the arid sec tions of the West is more clearly seen. Under the impetus given to irrigation projects by the Carey act and by the reclamation work befng done by the government, people are beginning to comprehend more fully the vast Importance of irrigation. And as the question is studied and surveys made, it b clearly seen in all these projects that the feature of predominating importance is an ade quate supply of water. In thi3 respect, the JJcscnutcs valley is wonderfully blessed. The Deschutes river, with its never failing source in the snow-capped mountains of the Cascade range, furnishes a. volume of water that will irrigate many thousand acres of thirsty desert, and as present projectn ex pand and new ones are developed up and down the valley, with their added demands on the flow of the river, a sure aud adequate supply of water is assured as there arc great natural reservoirs iu the lakes at the head of the Deschutes that need only a little work by man to make them capable of impounding millions of cubic feet of water, the excess flow of the river at times of the year when it is not needed. A crew of government engineers made a survey through this region in 1903 and in a bulletin on the "Geology and Water Resources of Central Oregon" the engineer in charge discusses the possibilities of storage reservoirs at the sources of the Deschutes. Dam lake, one of the lakes to be considered, was not visited by this crew although the engineer reported from data on hand that it could probably be made into a reservoir. Regarding the possibilities of Odell and Crescent lakes iu this regard, the report says: ODIiU. LAKE. This charming sheet of clear, cold wat er, surrouniled bv boltl, forest-covered mountains, is located on the east side of the Cascade mountains in proximity to their crest, and receives the water from the snow fields on Diamond Teak, tho height of which is 8,807 feet. On the side of that fine, bold mountain aud iu view from the east bide of Odell lake there is a miniature glacier situated just above the upper limit of tree growth, which may be considered as a much wasted remnant of an extensive ice stream that formerly flowed eastward from the same elevated region and occu pied the valley in which the present lake occurs. The former glacier bad several tributaries iu iu upper portion, and also received contributions from snow fieltla that covered the less imposing volcanic mountain to the northeast of Odell lake. The ice that flowed through the pre viously stream-eroded valley broadened ltd valley, rounded and smoothed the ledgea and hills of resistant rock on its borders, and on melting left conspicuous and well-defined lateral moraines on its sides and a senee of curved, concentric, terminal moraines about its southern end. The lateral moraines on the sidott of the valley slope perceptibly iu the di rection of ice movement. The terminal moraines which sweep across the south ern end of the basin iu a series of open loops are steep-sided ridges composed of bowlders ami much volcuuic lapilli ami pumice. The innermost of the series rises precipitously from the south end of the lake, and forms the dam which re tains its waters. The moraine is crossed by the stream flowing from the lake, which has excavated a narrow, (lop sided gorge across it. This gorge fur nishes a favorable site for dam, hy means of which the level of the lake could be raised so as to retaiu all of its winter discharge. The width of this stream at the local ity where the dam would be built was 57 feet on September 3, 1903, its average depth nine-tenths of a foot, and its max imum velocity, as determined by mean of float, seventy-five oue-huudredths foot per second, This amouut, however, is probably in excess of the actual volume, as the stream is much obstructed by stones and bowlders, and the value given to the measure of the velocity conse- (Concluded ou page 4, column 3.)
