Service Most Enterprising.
The United Press has been called
the most enterprising news service
in the world. It numbers among Its
clients the greatest afternoon dallies
in America. ' Its distinctive features
are Accuracy first, Speed second.
Before signing contracts with the
United Press, the publishers of The
Bulletin considered the merits of all
the press associations in the field.
They chose the United Press. Among
Oregon papers with United Press ser
vice are the Salem Capital-Journal,
the Oregon Journal, the Marchfield
Record, the Albany Herald, the Pen
dleton East Oregonian, the Baker
Herald, The Dalles Chronicle, the La
Grande Observer, the Roseburg Re

papers.

This case has been conducted 111

and the only remaining county In

STATE SEEKS TO RECOVER
LANDS IN CROOK COUNTY
Well Known Mining, Lumber and

uts in Case at Prin'evllle.
A bearing on the Crook county
phase of the case of the State of
Oregon vs. F. A. Hyde, the Western
Lumber Co., Anaconda Copper Com
pany, the Willamette Pulp & Paper
Company, and other defendants was
held before Judge T. E. J. Duffy
Thursday at Prlncville. This case
Is a sequel to the famous Hyde
Henson land fraud cases, in which
f. A. Hyde, of San Francisco, ac
quired a large amount of land In
Oregon, amounting to about 47,000
acres, part of which is located in
Crook county, through alleged fraud
ulent means. Hyde was tried, found
guilty and sentenced to 18 months
Imprisonmei.'t by the government.
Hyde sold lands to the defendants
in Oils case.
In this, particular action, which
handle flour. -The merchants were
hesitant about contracting for or
ders, and finding a steady market for
Bend manufactured flour was no easy
task for this company. Mr. Krocncrt
had faith In his miller, B. Kohflcld,
whom he brought with him to Bend
from Kansas, where Mr. Kohfield
had received his experience. An ex
haustive study began of local con
ditions, and especially of Central Ore
gon grown wheat, against which
there was so much popular feeling.
Undaunted by this feeling, the study
and experiments were carried out.
Blending Experiment Made.
Huge bulk wheat bins, with a ca
pacity of 20,000 bushels were built,
enabling the storing of large quanti
ties of wheat for testing and blend
ing before being ground. Hundreds
of experiments were conducted until
the proper blends were obtained,
most of which are now used In the
manufacture of the Deschutes Spray,
True Blue, Blended Blue-stem -and
Turkey Red flours.
After this important feature was
accomplished, Mr. Kroenert set about
manufacturing other products, the
first of which was whole wheat gra
ham flours. A stone buhr mill was
purchased upon which to grind this
product, which has proved to be
popular among the consumers owing
to its purity.
This department, as yet, Is infant,
but has splendid prospects for early
enlargment. The next product to
be experimented with and later turn
ed out was pancake flour, for which
local grown grains seem to be highly
adaptable. This feature was installed
in the plant about a year ago.
New Cereal Ih Prepared.
There is one product of which Mr.
Kroenert and his miller are the orig
inators Deschutes Rye Flakes, a
delightful breakfast cereal which Is

experiencing a big demand, not only
in the local and nearby markets, hut
is also finding demand In Port
land, Idaho and Washington, as those
merchants are ulso beginning to give
it notice, and, according to Mr. Kroe
nert. he now has several large or
ders for this product from firms out
side of the slate. Mr. Kroenert says
that the Bend Flour Mill is receiv
ing c.irloud orders from Jobbers in
Portland. The perfection of Des
chutes Rye Flakes came ufter a thor
ough study of local grown rye for
a period of six months, during which
several hundred individual experi
ments were made. Mr. Kroenert has
received many complimentary letters
upon the new product and he expects
to make much of it as tho market for
the product justifies.
.Modern Warehouse Until.
With the Increase In the capacity
of the mill, and the growing demand
for the local products as well ns the
manufacture of other products be
sides flour. Mr. Kroenert decided to
erect a modern brick-tile warehouse
with concrete floor, mid fireproof.
The warehouse Is divided into two
departments, one for storing and
aging of flour, with scientific venti
lation, and the other for the storing
of grains and feed. Experience has
already shown that this method of
storing flour is beneficial and more
profitable.
Kroenert Helps Kfockmcn.
In the last year Mr. Kroenert has
learned that farmers on smalLtracts
tributary to Bend have become In
terested in the advancement of dairy
ing and poultry raising, and that the
stockmen are more concerned with
advanced methods of feeding and the
use of more Brieiitifically prepared
stock rations. He also saw that in
addition to creating a market for
specially prepared mixed rations for
poultry and stock, he could also ma
terially assist the stockmen in bet
tering their nurds. Mr. Kroenert
has conferred with many Central
Oregon stockmen In regard to the
preparation of mixed feed rations.
Although the manufacture of these
feed rations has not started on a
large scale, Mr. Kroenert has pre
pared samples and sent them to
prominent stockmen, all of whom
comment highly upon it and will use
the rations as soon as the depart
ment is manufacturing for the mar
ket. It Is believed that the rations
will provide more, balanced feed and
that stockmen can feed their herds
more economically. The capacity of
this department will be Increased as
the demand for the product grows.

acreage tanners In raising ulfalfu,
As many of the farmers on Iheso
tracts teed their sleek on their cali
ches during tho winter, and its tho
raising of small bauds of sheep is
becoming each year more popular,
Mr, Kroonoil, anticipating that (ho
farmers would upprucliitn bcller

chased tuiichiueiy ami has Just com
pleted the erection of a largo ulfalfu
mill which grinds the u I fulfil Into
small pieces ready for feeding. It
has been tho experience of stockmen
that there is much waste In feeding :
alfalfa liny, and Mr. Kroenert be- 1
lieves that I lie ground alfalfa will. I
from this standpoint, bo much more j
economical. The process of grind-
ing mid separating the stalks from
the leaves makes possible the pro
duction of n high grade feed for
poultry, which couaUls of the leaves'
of the ulfalfu. Mr. Kro r( believes!
the ground ulfalfu will In a large!
measure revolutionize Ihe methods
