With hay at big prices it is likely thero will bo few moro natural meadows plowed up this year, at least. Wo need more grain, but wo have- other land than meadow on which to raise it Tho descriptive literature ex ploiting Harney county recently gotten out by tho Burns Commer cial Club is being mailed out quite rapidly. We should receive good results from this publicity campaign, especially with rail road work now almost ready to add to our possibilities. cites and villages, tho Michigan Knights of tho Grip, in their eon vontion hero declared war on the Anna that sell their goods through the medium of Uncle Sam's post ollico department. Tho resolu lion says: "Wo concur that if done- along logical lines, though common flonso and good reason, consumers should be informed that tho value of their farms depends to a cer tain oxtont on tho nearness of tho farms to a good live town and that any agricultural tow n depends for its prosperity on the support of tho consumers. "Further the consumer should bo educated to the fact that a continual support of mail order houses moans tho nnihilalion of the hustling villago and towns which on an average today pay about 30 percent of all taxes. If they succeed in destroying those towns and villages tho consumer must pay this extra tax and charge it, prorata, to tho cost of mail order goods." SAOU HRUSII TUB SAVIOR. Recently tho Silver State pub lished an article on utilizing sagebrush by distillation. The suject will interest every Nova I dan, some more than othors. If Judtro Webster will sneak all i it only solved tho question of over Oregon on good roads, and light, heat and power, by cutting he knows how to give moro in-1 the expense of these necessities formation about that subject than any farmer can remember. While he is doing so the farmer wants to remember that the heaviest burden of building good roads will rest on tho man who moro than half in two, it would go a long way towards lifting Nevada from a pitiable depend ency upon the oil trust and mil roads. 'It is possible that be fore another winter a great part is making use of his land, and of Nevada need not import one the vast stretches of idle land in .gallon of oil or gasoleno or a ton this state are what roads so poor. Ex. makes the' The importance of regulating the water supply is becoming more apparent to the land own- ers of this section each season. I To get best results it is necessary to use water with judgement and the method of Aooding even the wild meadow has been found to be detrimental. The proper of coal. Denatured alconol to take their place, "made in Ne vada," largely out of usoless waste. A Winncmucca citizen, well up in science and quick to grasp : good idea, has been carefully in vestigating tho manufacture- of denatured alcohol from raw ma terials in Nevada and quick growing plants. The industry, while airecting every family and every business in tho state can- it monopoly or trust, water is being used by those who haye the good fortune to have it to use. Hiatrihiifinn of ihr w.lfprs of tills rniinfv will rnmn nhmir nntiiHillv.not become in the course of time, but we for a few families can combine should hasten the time for the.0"" own a stl11- orcvcn 0,,e fom' benefit of all. A careful obscr- iIv can own a snia11 sti". with no vation of the effect of irrigation 'governmental supervision, and at should convince all that too much 1 0(1 times manufacture nlcohol for lighting, cooking and heat ing at small cost. If there should bo a surplus, it will read ily sell at good prices. If on the ranch or in town pumping of water is desirable, alcohol is a better fuel than oil or gasolene, and costs to manufacture about one-fourth what it costs to buy oil or gasoline. In domestic use it is well to know that it has few of the lurking dangers of oil and gasoline. If from a leaky pip or otherwise a fire should occur water will instantly extinguish it, while water spreads and adds to the combustion of oil and gasoline. All eyes are turned on South eastern Oregon, aptly termed "Tho last frontier on the last great west" It seems almost incredible that such a vase terri tory as this, where the soil is so fertile and where there arc so many streams and suitable res ervoir sites, should have remain ed virgin so long. Of course, tho one great drawback has been the lack of transportation facili ties, but the Boise-Winnemucca road, the Lakevievv branch to gether with the one from On tario to Hie coast through South ern Oregon will bring in a crowd of homesekers who will trans form these sagebrush basins into fertile farms. A good many people have discerned the signs and are coming in, but the greater rush will not take place until warmer weather makes homesteading more endurable. Jordan Valley Express.

At a recent mooting of the Burns Commercial Club tho mat ter of permits on tho forest re serve for fuel was discussed and the secretary asked to take it up with tho forest ollkcrs. It scorns the policy of the ranger has been to issuo freo use permits for dead timber only. This m what local people objected te: .uco tho avail able dead timber is becoming scarce Supervisor Bingham referred the matter to tho chiof at Port land showing conditions and ro commending a moro lenient policy with the rBiilt that ranger Camp boll of this place has been given permission to issue permits whero warranted for maturo living tim bor. In his lotlor tho chiof states that only whoro it is really nec essary should such privelego bo given and the ranger should know certainly tho applicant was en tilled to it. TEACHERS1 EXAMINATIONS.
