Mr. Sherwood bases his figures on the criming capacity of the land from grain crops, using oats nt a cent n pound as n basis. The Sherwood Ilros. were very suc cessful with oats lust year and every indication now is that they will be as successful or even more so this season. Mr. Sherwood dates that their oats will undoubt edly yield from 60 to 75 bushels per acre. Mr. Sherwood's method isn busi ness like way of figuring the value of laud. Hut the largest returns from land in this Mct'ou will never be made from grain crops. That it generally conceded. More money will come into the farmer's ockct through the raiding of clover, al falfa, and root croW with some grainand then converting it all into fat sheep, cattle and hog, or by engaging in the dairy husiiicts. In that umiiner will the most money he made, and the earning capacity of the laud will exceed in a pleasing degree even the satisfying fixure estimated by Mr. Sherwood. 100I) AVI2KTISIN FOR HliNI) Will llo Well Kcprcseiitcd lit Home cckcr' edition of Pacific .Monthly.

The country will be thor oughly written up, its numerous resources described in 11 .suitable wanner, and the article will lie il lustrated with a number of cuts showing scene in this jkiiI of the state.

He got three excellent views of the head gates and flume of the I). I. tit i' Co., and also 11 view of Joe Burk- hoU's ranch showing a field of clover hay in the shock and his large vegetable garden. Mr.Steph eusou was much pleased with these views and csccially with those of the hcailgatcs and Hume, remark ing that they showed great enter prise and development. These photos will lc made into stcrcopticon views 10 or 30 feet square and will be used lo illustrate lectures that will be given during the fair. The lecturer will be thor oughly informed as to each picture and the section and enterprise it represents, and as it is thrown on the .screen he will explain it iu de tail. It is readily seen what an ex cellent means ol advertising this will lie. The entire state will be advertised in this manner. Mr. Stephenson came in from the south, having been at Lake view, Christmas Luke and Sum mer Lake valley, and Silver Lake He has a numhc of views of those sections and got the promise of dif ferent ones to scud 11 good exhibit of grains, grass, etc. to the expo sition. lie desired very much to have such an exhibit from this sec tion.

When a chantre of venue is granted, the attorneys for the State mm lor me (ictcusu tmve the privi lege of choosing the trial court, but if they cannot agree then Justice O'Connor will designate such court. Attorney O. I,, llemier of Piine- ville appeared iu behalf of the state, as special prosecutor appointed by District Attorney Wilson. For the oast three or four daws Sheriff Klkins and Attomev Der nier have been iu lleud quietly silting this mutter to the bottom and gathering evidence.

AIM: NOT PAR PROM $100,000 Surveying Crew Makes Rapid Prog ress and lias about Reached Mad rasSuccess Assured. The Ihilletiu continues to have nothing but thu best of news to re ort regarding the Central Oregon Railroad. V. A. Wynn, the right-of-wuy man, reached lleud this week after having worked quite thoroughly the Redmond section. Mr. Wynn has Imen temporarily taken from the work of .securing right-of-way and has been solicit ini' Atihscrifitions. He rcnorls verv satisfactory success iu this work. Redmond people have already sub-scrik-d. iu work and material, clos to Ss.Soo. This can easily be raised to 7. 500. Subscriptions at lleud and viciuity still continue to come iu and before another week closes it is confidently believed that this section of thu county not counting Madras or Prinevillc will have siibscrilxrd for $100,000 worth of stock. Everything indi cates that at the present writing. Mr. Wynn is now at Laidlaw car rying 011 the good work at that place. The llullctin will probably begin next week the publication of a list of those who have subscribed with the amounts given. The surveyors are making rapid progress and arc covering about six miles of preliminary line each day. They are now close to Mad ras. After teaching Madras they may return and locate the line from O'Xeil to Madras, but probably the line will be continued to Shan iko and location made later. The "ifs" are beginning to drop out of the proposition of building the Central Oregon Railroad The work is progressing with such pleas ing regularity and has gotten along to such n point that the success of the enterprise can be practically assured. Railroad Notes. The Bulletin has it on reliable authority that about four months ago Harriuiau had arrangements completed to take over all the stock of the Oregon Trunk Line, with the exception of the stock owned by I.. I. Gregory . Gregory got wind of the deal, however, and was able to stop it, due to some sort of a K)oling agreement previously ex isting. If Harrimau had succeeded iu getting the-slock he would have secured control of the Trunk Line. It wilt lc remembered that the Trunk Line is a road projected up the Deschutes river from its mouth, by Seattle and Portland capitalists, among whom are L. J. Gregory and W. 1 Nelson. Harriniau alteady has a survey tip theI)eschutei canyon on the op posite side to that of the Oregon Trunk Line, and if he had secured K)sse.ssiou of this latter line he would hoys hrjd the Deschutes river canyon safely iu his control nm! Centra! Oregon all the more secure ly bottled up, which undoubtedly was the object in view. It simply proves that this .section should not rely upon Harriuiau for transpor tation but should bend all its ener gies to building the road backed by local enterprise, the Central Ore gon. The Chicago Post of July at says that work on the reconstruc tion of the Shasta Route has been liegttu. It is stated that ;? 10,000, 000 will be required to carry out the plans, the building of 288 miles of new road being involved. It is stated that the road will be relocat ed over the Siskiyou mountains. Iu connection with its reconstruc tion, it is stated, Mr. Harriniau contemplates the construction of a line, 303 miles iu length, running from Ontario, Id., on the state line between Idaho and Oregon almost directly west to Kugcnc, Oregon, where the Shasta Route will rejoin the old line. These undertakings, it is stated, will involve the expendi ture of between $40,000,000 and $50,000,000. Redmond Items. HXDilOHD, July 3b. IllrllHUyn gahire yetcrdy anil not much clc to write nlxtut.

I.aulaw for $i6.ooc. damages, says the Portland Jour rial. I.aidlaw is a principal stock holder and general manager of the Columbia Southern Irrigation com pany, from whom Gcrking pur chased the land, but. he says Laid law is unable to deliver title with out fraud upon the United Staten government and committing sub ornation of perjury in making proof. Gerktng paid $6,400 for the land and water right, and he says tb.v with the improvements lie has made the place is worth i5.ooo today. He cleared 100 acres, seed ed 50 acres to alfalfa and planted the remainder to trees, berries and vines. He ran laterals for irriga tion and fenced the place only to learn as he says, that the defend ant is not able to furnish a good title as he agreed to do as soon as he had finished paying for the place. Crop Reports Encouraging. Crop reports in the last few day from the various districts adjacent to this place are encouraging and indicate that the yield is going to be much better than was antic pa ted, says the Madras Pioneer From Agency Plains, the Fishe district, Methodist Hill. Culver aud other districts from which farmers were in town the last of the week the report is brought that an aver age crop will be harvested, and that the yield will be much beav.?r thati was predicted two weeks ago Much of the grain is very late tlin year and this was especially bene fitted by the heavy rain last week Ssveral farmers in this immediate neighborhood who were preparing to cut all their grain for hay have concluded to thresh as the grain ix so much better than they expected. A few farmers say they will hav as good a crop as they had last year, but not many are so fortunate, although the reports altogether an verv encouraging. , -t A Tine Well for Irriiatlon. C. II. Kelley was a visitor from Lake last week. In talking with our reporter he said that he was very much pleased with the irri gating well he has dug, although it is a great deal larger than was necessary. He first made an exca vation 8x24 feet down to the water level, then bored three holes in one comer to put the hose iu to keep the well dry while the excavation was being completed. To the sur prise of all he was unable to dimm ish the flow of water to a percepti ble degree, although he kept bis three-inch centrifugal pump run ning for three successive days pro pelled by a 2j horse power gaso line engine. Mr. Kelley says if his well holds out, of which he has little doubt, he will have plenty ot water for his neighbors after he has his 320-acre farm irrigated. Silvtr Lake Leader.
