Progress of Industries and Manufac turing That Provide Oregon Peo ple With Payrolls. Five counties from Eugene to Portland have united to develop the Pacific Highway on the east aide of the Willamette valley. A public dock is to be built at Port Orford to cost $6000. Corvallis is to have a new Episco pal church. At the Manufacturers banquet held in Lane county sentiment was unan imous against enactment of any more harrassing industrial laws. A Lake Labish drainage scheme is bejng worked out in Marion county at an expense of $20,000. Richland and, Newbridge, Baker county, are to be supplied with a mountain water system to cost $50 000. Astoria will spend $280,000 this year on a seawall," and fill in fifty blocks of city property for factories and business. Coos Bay lumber shipments to San Francisco for the last two weeks of April surpassed all others on the coast 8,240,000 feet. The Pendleton Tribune says not only the individual but every phase of industrial activity is hampered by too much legislation. Marsh field city and county offi cials are planning the construction of a boulevard to the ocean. The Oregon Power Co. at Eugene is making special rates to induce factories to locate at that city. A factory at Marsh field has been equipped with machinery to turn out fifty mattresses daily. Business men in the hop industry representing $25,000,000, and a yearly output of 5 to 6 millions are organizing against prohibition. Astoria is to get a streetcar line extension of two miles at the hands of the Pacific Power and Light Co The Malheur Enterprise says there will be general approval of the mem hers of the legislature who put in their time swatting fool laws. Judge McGinn holds that a rail road company is not liable for dam ages done a passenger caused by a wreck in a storm. Construction of a water system for Coos Bay cities costing $150,000 will be started at once and to be completed this summer. A farmers co-operative creamery has been organized at Bend. The Presbyterians of Astoria have let a contract for a $5000 church It is expected that trains on the Willamette Pacific will run from Eugene to Tidewater this fall. The O.-W. It. & N. Co. is planning terminals at Pendleton, with shops and yards to employ several hundred men. Astoria and Portland merchants are co-operating to find a market for the product of the new Astoria flouring mills. Halibut banks off the Tillamook coast are being investigated. The Southern Oregon and North ern California Mining Congress will he held at Ashland early in July to revive interest in mining and min imize the evil effects of the Blue Sky laws. Lumber Interests and creosote in terests are uniting to establish a number of wood block paving plants in Oregon cities that have the raw material and go after some of the street and permanent highway bus iness. Oregon lias abundant raw material, plenty of labor but must have capital to develop these resources. In the mean time laws that tax the capital and regulate the industry off the earth are suicidal. The Lamb mining company is building a big reservoir near Ash land and will irrigate the Sunset or chard of several hundred acres. North Bend will have a wharf with a quarter of a mile of straight deep water harbor line. The Oregon-Idaho Power Co. is developing a 2000 horsepower plant on the Snake river opposite Copper field. Laws that deprive laborers of em ployment in Oregon are to be sup plemented with laws to create a com mission to employ the unemployed. The Simpson Lumber Co. on Coos Bay expect to employ twice as many men as heretofore. Mrs. Amelia Brown of Lane coun ty has invented a sanitary cap for milk bottles that a Denver firm of fers her fifty thousand for. The fight for the use of Oregon stone as trimmings for the new stale University administration building is whether the State Architect shall se lect terra cotta or Oregon stone. The Port of Coos Bay Commission has decided to raise $300,000 more ou a bond issue for deepening the channel, It is believed by many that the era of fads, fancies and experimenta tion in polities and business in Ore gon has reached Us climax.

Agriculture, In connection with the regular summer session of the Oregon Agri cultural College, a two weeks' short course in Agriculture will be given for boys of the Seventh, Eighth and High School grades. A special il lustrated circular of IS pages has been issued and mailed to all county school superintendents and princi pals. Copies may be secured or them or of the director of the summer school.

Thirty-five boys, represent ing over a dozen counties, attended the first session. Accomodations for one hundred boys are provided this year. Four to five hours each day, in cluding Saturday, are devoted to study and the remainder of the time to play, with Wednesday and Satur day afternoons free. A general lead er, assisted by three to five senior or graduate college boys, will keep careful oversight of the boys day and night, both to keep them from getting into mischief and to see that each boy gets his share of all the work and fun. The boys will be or ganized into groups, according to age and development, for both the in struction and play. Each group will have one of these leaders who will be sort of big brothers. Any boy in Oregon is eligible, but not more than one will be accepted from one district or ward school in the towns so long as there are ap plicants from schools not represent ed. All applicants must be approved by the county or town superintendent both as to character and ability to profit by the course. No tobacco us ers will be accepted.

The Whetstone shearing plant on Hinton creek, under the management of Guy Boyer, finished their run this week and closed on Tuesday. Six teen shearers have been operating the plant for the greater part of the time but the past week there have been but thirteen on the job. The season has been a good one and band after band of sheep have been shorn of their wool and the average fleece has been excellent; perhaps from ten to twenty percent above what it was last season. The Boyer place pre sents a lively appearnnce while the shearing is on as it requires a small army of men to do the work. Purchased Wool. Thos. Ross last week purchased 400,000 pounds of wool from sheep men at Heppner. Ho also bought 100,000 from sheepmen here in Uma- nla county. The wool was bought or Crimmins & Pierce of Boston. Mr. Ross also shipped three other cars of wool this week to the same tirm. Echo News. Judge W. P. Dutton returned to his Portland home ou Saturday.

Last year the fire loss on the Can adian timber reserves was the small est ever known, only one-fiftieth of one per cent of the area being burned over. Zentaro Kawase, professor of for estry at the imperial university of Toklo, Japan, has been making a tour of the national forests of this country to learn the government's methods of selling timber and of re forestation. More than 858,000 young trees are being set out this spring on national forests in Utah and southern Idaho, and the season is reported as par ticularly favorable to their success ful growth. Armstrong lake, within the Bear tooth national forest, Montana, is said to rival the famed Lake Louise of the Canadian Rockies. It lies at an elevation of 7,000 feet surround ed by towering mountains. A good road which can be traveled in half a day by automobile connects it with the railroad at Billings. A rustic hotel has recently been completed, and many trails make the surround ing region accessible. The attention of sheepmen and camp tenders is called to the store at Lena. You can be well supplied in all your wants for canned goods and stock salt as this store will keei a good supply of these goods on hand during the summer.
