They left Grants Pass at 9:40 a. m. but did not arrive at their home until 4:29, thus requiring 6 hours and 49 minutes for the trip, which is ! considered slow traveling for a carrier pigeon.

This same flock made the trip from Roseburg this year in 4 hours. Later in the season when the atmosphere is less liable to be cloudy I the (lock will be sent to Grants Pass forauotber trip and they will probably j then make better time. jj A Brief Record of 8 6 Local Events. jj I Klamath Falls now has a four-story i Orick, the Baldwin block, the only j four-story building in Southern Ore- ' son. i !
