A MBMORAULB TRIP. A Former Bend Young Lady Climb to Top ot Active Volcnno, Ben Wilkinson, n former llcnd young lady who is now in Ilono lulu, Hmvnii, writes interestingly of a recent trip she made to sec the volcano Kilo wen: "We left Honolulu on the 3rd of July and arrived at the island of Hawaii on the morning of the 4th, ot the town of Hilo (Hcclo.) Here we took a tram to Glcnwood, from which point we took a stage nine miles to the Volcano House; ar rived there about 12 o'clock, noon. It was a great sight for us to sec all the earth smoking, livery lit tlj way the smoke was puffing out of the ground and in places the sulphur was boiling up and run ning in little streams. There were great sulphur beds about a hall mile from the Volcano House. "From here we walked a mile and a half to an extinct volcano. We came back and had dinner and then, in the evening, we walked three miles to the volcano Kilowca (pronounced Kilowa) the largest active one in the world. Of course the time to see it is at night, so we stayed up there until after 13. I guess there were 200 people in all. "We took post cards and put them on a stick and held them in the cracks until they were scorched. On the way to the cmter it was so hot in some places that we had to run and had to jump over cracks where the heat and smoke were coming up. "I forgot to tell yon that the roses grow wild in Hawaii great big double ones of all colors some of the trees, or bushes, being more than 1 a feet high. They are simply beautiful. Bananas and cocoa nuts also grow wild here, and the timbered areas are regular jungles I wouldn't have missed this trip to the islands for all I ever expect to have hereafter." BOUdHT ALFALFA THRESHER WI4I Thresh 100 Acres of Alfalfa for tho Seed. R. M. Powell of Prineville has bought an alfalfa thresher and will leave for the railroad next week to bring it in. He believes there Ls more money in threshing alfalfa for the setd than in selling it for bay. He has 100 acres on his place ou the McKay that he will thresh this fall and the returns from this will determine whether he is right or not on his judgment. Mr. Powell sent some sample pods to the Ore gon experiment station for exami nation and he received word that the seed was first class. In fact, the best that had been received. The Journal says it sees no reason why Mr. Powell's venture ought not to prove successful. Alfalfa seed retails in the market here at 25 cents a ppund and the user take every chance on its purity, vitality and adaptability to this climate. With seed raised at home every thing is vouched for. Some Fine Clover. The Bulletin man took a trip down to Simmons Bros.' ranches to see that field of clover of which we bad beard so much. The field, consisting of 58 acres, was on the ranch belonging to Mr. P. W. Simmons and was certainly a fine specimen of Mammoth Red clovei. Part of the field was cut when we were there, but that which was standing reached to a man's chert and was so thick that it was very difficult to walk through. In fact, it was the finest clover we had ever seen. Mr. Simmons claims it will go three tons to the acre, and he ought to know. This field was seeded in June, 1908, with wheat as a nurse crop, using six pounds of clover seed per acre. This was the first time it had been cut. Mr. George Simmons has 65 acres of clover and alfalfa that he intends I to plow under this foil nnd then seed it to wheat and clover next spring. He certainly will harvest a line crop from thutjnud after such treatment. Wc hud our staff pho tographer along, John Suther, ami took several views of the standing clover which we hope to reproduce iu the paper later. GENERAL NEWS NOTES. V. M. Chrisman of Silver Lake has had S. B. Westcott, his book keeper at one time, arrested on n charge of embezzling $7,000 Westcott waived examination and was bound over under $5,000 bonds. "It never rains but it pours " Gold has been discovered on an island at the mouth of the Des chutes. Claims have been staked and the precious metal washed out ut the rate of 50 cents to the cubic yard. Condon Times.

WRITE FOR PREMIUM LIS T. . First Central Oregon Agricultural Ass'n. "What Will It Cost" Is the Question of Questions! The household question the insistent question everywhere--the question which is oftener in human minds than any other whatever, is: "WHAT WILL IT COST?" Where to get to the best advantage-- whencan it be afforded all of these questions, and many more cluster around the main one "What Will It's the question of questions and It Is the question that gives the ads. half of their importance. No one, unless an ad. reader, ever knows much about the answer to It. the way the branch of a tree struck one of his eyes severely injuring it. It is not known yet whether the sight is itnpared or not. Prineville Journal.

The parachute descend ed finely, and iu fact the whole affair was a success. Mr. Little John left Monday for Burns where he will make his 27th ascension next Sunday. Prineville Review.

A Htown came up Monday from their ranch at the big cove ou the Dcncliuteri and Hpent two duys at the home of S. I). Percival. Mr. hrotvu'N ranch is one of the centers of activity in the battle between the rival roads 111 the Destitutes canyon, both sides having latgc forces of men and equipment ut work there lie says it is impossible to stay how many men arc at work in that locality, but he estimates the number tough ly at anywhere between 800 and 1,000. There is already over u mile of finished grade at that oint, and the construction forces are go ing right ahead with work 011 the grade. There is no evidence of any bluff or hold-up game, Mr, llrown says, but it looks like a battle royal for the Iwst route up the D'schutcs canyon to Central Oregon. Madras Pioneer.
