The Dalles, Ore., July 27 Juniper
Flat, a great level plateau south of
here, which contains something over
100 square miles, has never produced
anything but wheat. Now it is
springing up in orchards, berry
patches and diversified farms. This
change, which has converted a near
desert to a veritable garden, is all
due to the operations of the Wapinita
Irrigation Company,, which began
work here six months ago. Water
was brought from the high hills to
the east of the plateau and works
have now been completed to the point
where every farm on the flat can be
supplied with abundant water. Jun
iper Flat is bounded roughly. The
principal towns in Juniper Flat are
Wapinita, Maupin, Tygh Valley and
Wamic. The territory is tributary to
The Dalles and is connected with this
city by a railroad, and stage lines.
Shearar, Ore., July 27
The falls
of the Deschutes river near here,
which have been the site of nothing
but a toll bridge anr a white-elephant
hotel for the past 30 years, are to be
harnessed soon by the Eastern Ore
gon Land Company. Enormous po
tential electrical energy is now going
to waste.
Harrisburg, Ore., July 27 Hund
reds of tons of hay recently harvested

wire to be had in this vicinity for

Hood Kiver, Ore., July 27 It is
estimated that this year's apple pack
will reach only 50 or 60 per cent of
mm
last year's 2,000,000 box crop, but
the fruit is of exceptional'quality.
Bend, Ore., July 2 7 The two saw
mills and all the logging camps of
the Booth-Kelly Lumber Company

closed down for Independence Day,
and the mills have been undergoing
repairs since that. time.
Portland, Ore., July 27 Iceless re
frigerators, manufactured In this city

Put Today's Prosperity Into Much-Needed Buildings
District Manager Cronk of the Tum-A-I.um Lumber Company states that he is work
ing on List No. i, which is the third and latest decline in lumber prices this year.
Manager Cronk says that much building is being talked of this year, but that shortage
of cars and workmen may delay fall building until bad weather unless early actions
taken and building plans are not left till the last minute as is usually the case.
Contractors in Heppner, Lexington and lone are already busy and have much work
ahead in sime cases.
Almost certain advances in lumber price and scarcity of labor will make the "Last
Minute" builder wish he had planned and started earlier.
"Size up your crop-" and PLAN "AFTER HARVEST BUILDING" NOW, is Man
ager Cronk's advice. Tiim-.-Lum Department furnishes in .jKliours when required, plan
and estimate of cost of buildings for 1 ome and I 'arm s. No obligation to buv. District

Danger ! Itcwa'V !
A woman who was too economical
to subscribe for her home paper sent
her little son to borrow the copy tak
en by her neighbor. In his haste the.
boy ran over a four dolar stand of
bees and in ten minutes looked like a
warty Summer squash. Ilia cries
reached his father .who ran to hisas
sistance, and failing to notice a barb
ed wire fence, ran into it breaking it
down, cutting a handful of flesh frmn
his anatomy and ruining a five dollar
pair of pants. The old cow took ad
vantage of the gap in the fence and
got into thecornfield and killed her
self eating corn. Hearing the racket.
the mother ran, upset a four gallon
churn of rich cream into a basket of
kittens, drowning the whole litter.
In her hurry she dropped and broke,
past all hope of mending, a twenty
five dollar set of false teeth. The.
baby, left alone, crawled through the
spilled cream and into the parlor,
ruining a twenty dollar carpet. Dur
ing the excitement the eldest daught
er ran away with tho hired man, thn
dog broke up eleven setting hens and
the calves got out and chewed tho
taila off of four fine shirts.
And all to save fifty cents!
Moral: Subscribe for tho Herald
at once and protect yourself from
such calamities.
