In the State of Oregon from tho
Columbia river to tho California bor
der. Is a great public domain that
will novor bo opened to settlement.
This area comprises tho Federal for
est reservations. Hera are 13 000,000
acres of forest land not sublect to
stnto tax, although tho rtate derives
thirty-five per cent of revenues from
grazing, timber and other sourrcs
collected by tho Federal Government.
Approximately 25,000,000 acres more
is covered with heavy timber nnd Is
not used for agricultural purposes.
In Eastern Oregon are other vast
nreas of land of no value from an
agricultural standpoint. Much of it whoro thoso birds woro not Introduc-

tho state.
How can tho stato of Oregon ever
profit by this cxtenslvo territory with
in her borders? Whnt a- tho re
sources of this great domain?
Our 40,000.000 acres of forests
contain the finest mountain streams
nod our most beautiful lakes. To
roako them valuablo to tho stato, they
must bo stocked with flsh. Practi
cally all our big gamo animals llvo
In our forests. Our forest areas nro
tho recreation grounds for our peo
ple. This Is tho area that will al
wnvg be open to tho poor mnn as
well as the rich man. As population
increases, this Is tho only area In tho
pfeto wheo we can cunrsntee hunt
ing and fishing to tho poor man as
well as tho rich man.
Our splendid streams ed lakes,
our snow-capped mountains, our
magnificent forests are attracting
rlsta from oil parts of tho world
who como to flsh. hunt nnd enjoy
outdoor llfo in Oreeon. Tho gamo
rpBourcca In Maine bring $20,000,000
annually Into that state. California
values her gamo resources noarly as
high. Neither of these states hns bet
ter onoartunltr than Oregon to be
come famous as a fishing and hunting
paradise. Anting for Chinook sal
mon la tho Willamette and fishing
for rainbows In the Romie, McKenrie.
Deschutes and our other streams Is
attracting people from all over tho
United States. Every year tourists
come from New York, Massachusetts,
Pinslwnla and other states to take
their outlngsl n Oregon.
Of what proflt Is this to Oregon?
Tou'Ists spend a large amount of
r-onev 'n railroad and stago fares,
at hotels and farm houses. In the
employment of guides, hiring horses,
purchasing equipment, sunnlies and
numerous other Itoms. This money
fro dlrcctlv into the pockets of our
citizens. Fishing and hunting thus
become a business proposition to tho
farmer, the fruit-grower, tho tlmbcr
ian and evory other land owner In
the state by attracting the class of
travelers who have money to spend
and monoy to Invest. ,
Food Vnlno of Game. '
The game of our stato la worth
approximately 1800.000 annually
from the food standpoint. In the
neighborhood of 9,000 deer, 150,000
ducks, 45,000 Chinese pheasants are
killed annually. When we also con
sider tho numbers of grouse, quail,
geere. shore birds and other game
that 1s killed and when we estimate
that this meat is worth from twelve
to sixteen cents per nound. whether
it Is on the tablo of the farmer, tho
mountaineer or the merchant, it
means a big Income to our nconto. A
pound of trout or other game flsh Is
worth twelve cents from a meat
standpoint. A vast amount of gamo
flsh Is taken from the waters or our
State each year which furnishes food
for lur people. I
The records, which are not quite
complete for 1914. show that 58.813
of our residents nnsled In our
streams and lakes during the past
year. Tho number of our people who
actually engage In this outdoor sport
rapidly increases each year. During
the past year, there was an lncrr
of 6,4 4 S anglers over the previous
year. Out of the total population in
Oregon at the present time of 70
000 peoplo, from 86,000 to 90,000 of
these residents take an act've part
in either hunting or Ashing some time
during the year. This shows we are I
an outdoor people and it is the dutyf
of the state to furnish this recreation. I
A large amount of money Is deriv
ed annually from the hunting and
trapping of our fur-bearing animals.
This Is a crop that is worth f.100,000
yearly to our state. A largo part of
the revenue derived goes directly to
the homesteader and the settler who
needs it to develop bis property Th
rifle and the trap have been almost
as important as the ax and the plow.
In times when It has been hardest
for the homesteader to make a living
the wild birds, wild animals and the
flqh have been bis mainstay. It,
therefore, becomes the duty of the
state to propagate all kinds of gamo
and carefully protect and preserve
our game resources for the benefit of
tho poor man and his family.
Is It Not n Good Investment?
From an economic and business
standpoint, tho game and other wild
captures of tho stnte are worth
5,000.000 annually to us. This Is
not placing a high estimate on these
rPBOurcea. During the past year, the
Flub and Game Commission has ex
pended 1130,000 to protect and de
velop our game resources. This is an
expenditure of two per cent a year
on tho investment. The expenditure
is necessary if we are to Increase the
value of tho resources. The money

PORTLAND, Fob. l.-W. W. Ilrown
of Crook county, well known rancher
and stockman, .has made n will leav
ing various amounts to different In
stitutions In tho Willamette valley
and tho reslduo of tho estato, esti
mated to bo In tho neighborhood of
1500,000, to cortnln rollgious and

with the Methodist Episcopal church.
While Bill Ilrown is well known
In Rend and .throughout Crook coun
ty, where ho has tho ropulntlon or
having ono of tho biggest ranches
and tho biggest heart In tho com
raunlty, It remained Tor Addison Hon
nott to tell somothlng of his career
In tho Oregonlan on Sunday. For
tho entertainment of Central Oregon
inns hero nro a tow extracts from
what tho veteran Ada'.son wroto:
It Is 28 years sinco Hill nnd two
of his brothers drovo their little band
of 1500 shcop across tho Cascado
mountains Into Harney Valley. They
made their first stand near tho pres
ent post ofllca of Egll, not far from
Wagon Tiro mountain, adjacent to
Lost Creek.
Money Mndo at Teaching.
ntll had mndo his monoy to start
with as a school teacher In tho Wil
lamette valloy, being a graduate of
Willamette University.
Tho sheep business nlong in tho
lato 80's was not prosperous nnd tho
little band of 1600 soon been mo n
band of 700. Thon 13111 bought out
his brothers nnd went It alone. Ho
filled ono pocket with raisins nnd an
other with strychnlno and followed
thoso sheep out over tho rango. When
thoy stopped. Hill stopped; whoa they
traveled, Hill traveled in rain, in
snow, in sleet nnd In sunshine, Hill
followed thoso sheep. When tho
band Increased to 2600 ho hired an
nsslstant. as but why delay tho fl
nolo? Why, In a short time there
woro 30,000 of thorn and Illll'wns tho
largest sheep owner In Central Oro
gon. Then, when tho sheep business was
at hlgh-tldo nnd rango horses worth
known that ho would pay top prloo
(or n fnw thousand bruoil mines, l'oo.
ilo thought Hill was montnlly un
balanced so thoy unloaded n tow
thouinnd on him and Inughod in
tliolr Blooves at him no they pockotod
tltu money.
111k Munition Constructed.
For the last llvo or six yours Hill
has been soiling his G-yciir old colts
from thoio mares nt $70 u hund lit
tho corral. When ho mndo hln Unit
big salo ho removed IiIh hendqunrturH
to Huok Creek nnd erected tho man
sion mentioned, nnd lives thoro still.
Hut his range la nnywhoro within 100
or ao utiles to tho south nnd wont,
nnd lesser distances to tho north and
east. Ho owns about 1.1.000 acres of
land, or did three yeais ngn. Ha
most likely has n few thousand ncrcs
moio now. no probably sells over
1000 head of horson every year and
ho still has many thousand hoad of
shoop. In fact, ho will novor go out
of tho sheep business. Ho told mo
that the horse business was nil right
ns n money-mnkor, "but glvo mo
shoop," ho contlnuod. Ho nlso had,
wnon I last asked mm, about 1,000
hoad of cattle.
It you woro to meet with Hill, on
tho rango, In Prlucvlllo, or on tho
ctroots of Portland, you would tnka
him for a clorgyman. Woll, you
would not bo far amiss, for ha is ono
of the most dcoply religious mon I
ovor knew. Ho abhors, worso than
abhors, liquor of, all kinds, will not
tolorato profanity In his prcsonco,
dislikes tobacco In Its every form. Ha
prnctlcnlly keeps tho accounts of his
great business in his hat.
