Are Urged to Attend Irrigation Congress, v Secretary J. T. Hinckle, of the AOregon Irrigation Congress, is a Appealing to all parts of the state ru.or a big attendance at the an- ynual meeting. January 9-11. Every man who is appreciative of the need for careful study of irrigation progress, is urged to ; invite his friends who are also interested. By getting together the largest possible body of , students and workers, the officers of the Congress hope to gain the maximum of education. 1 It is apparent to all students of industrial problems in the state that irrigation has reached a i crisis. There must be some change or improvement in the i. .existing order. Good land must Fbe placed within reach of the kvorage farmer at a lower charge. In yiew of the fact that the Carey Act plan of reclamation has large ly proven a failure, and that the Federal operations are of neces sity limited, it is clear that some effective me' 1 of enlisting private capital, or drawing into ( the work the credit of the state, must be provided. In putting at the forefront the ' work being done by the farmers of the state, through bonding of districts or as co-operative as- . Bociations, it is the purpose of The Times-Herald has received a notice from H. G. Wilson, of Roseburg that bids will be receiv ed for seven tracts of land, each containing 160 acres of the lands allotod to the Indians in this val ley up until Feb. 18, 1913. It had been hoped a larger amount of this land could be secured and placed on the market at this time but in the nbsencc of Dr. Mars den it was impossible to get the Indians to understand and more Of the land Will thprofnrn hn placed on the market later. Six of the tracts have been appraised at to per acre, the other at $10. This appraisement is verv con- servative and the lands will no doubt bo sold at that figure very readiiy if not for more. The following conditions govern according to the notice received: All bids should be enclosed in a sealed envelope which must bo conspicaously marked "Bids for Indian Lands." The date of the proposed sale must also be writ thereon, but nothine else. Mn bidder will be permitted to in clude more than one allotment in any bid. If a prosDective nur- chaser desires to bid on m.m than one allotment ho must make a separate bid for each allotment which he desires to nurchn.se. and if lie wishes to purchase less lhan an entire allotment ho mav submit a bid for one or more lotrnl subdivisions or any part thereof. Each bid must be accompanied by a duly certified check on snmn solvent bank payable to Homen G. Wilson, Sunt. Roseburg. Ore gon, for U3o of the grantor, for w percent of the amount offered. as a guarantee for the faithful performance by the bidder of his nroponal. If the' bid should bo accepted and the successful bid der shall within thirty days after due notice fail to comply with the terms of his bid, the money re presented by such check shall be forfeited for the use of the owner of the land. The checks of all un successful bidders will be return ed within 10 days after the open ing of the bids: any other infor mation governing sales will be sent on application. Purchaser shall pay the cost of conveyance and from $1.50 to $2.50 for ad vertising. No bid for an amount less than the appraised valuation will bo considered. Owing to the splendid satisfac tion given at their d uico with thu band music, and numerous and urgent requests for a repeti tion of the same, the manage ment of the band has decided to please the public in this rcjnecl and will give a masquerade and grand ball at Tonawama hall, on Friday night. .Inn. 21th. which promises to bo n vory enjoyable nllair. The band will furnish the dance music until 1 o'clock, which should prove a drawing card to everyone, as well as give those desiring to listen to the band, an opportunity to have their wishes gratified. The members of tho band trust their efforts to please the public will not be in vain, and hope to be accorded a packed house on this occasion. Their former con cert and dance wns neither one as well attended or patronized as they should have been, and if tho public's sentiment 1b to judged, by the manner in which they support these undertakings, the band feels their eiforts to raise finances for their mainten ance must fail, and as theso do ings are tho only means at hand whereby they can raise revenue during the winter, it stands the public in hand to show their good will and support them whenever the opportunity presents itself. otherwise there is but the cnevit- able result, the disbandment of the organization. It has been freely predicted by many that Burns has at present tho best band it ever had. and that the music handled of a better grade, but on tho other hand its wns re ceiving the ioo rest support of any organization of its ability they had ever seen. This should not be, but it's a fact novel t he less, and this is very evident to its members. Outside of the hall rent, lights and fuel donated by the Tonawama management. not a citizen or business corcern in town has made any effort to help it along, and there you arc how does it look. Every man, woman and child has reason to feel proud of this home organiza tion, and ought to show it. V tho members of tho organization and their immediato families.
