THE First National Bank OF HEPPNER Advertising Will Pay You If You Use The G.-T. The following item is taken from the IViuUetou Ea.,t Oregoniiin re garding the new brand law: The new brand law, making the state veterinarian recorder of all stock brands, wiil go into effect on May 22, according to a letter receiv ed this morning from Dr. W. H. Lytle state veterinarian, by Dr. C. W. Las sen, county veterinarian. The letter contains much information regarding the new law and is here published: "In answer to your letter of March 17th, will state that the new brand law goes into effect May 22, 1915. As soon as the new law goes into effect, applications for the filing of brands may legally be made. They may also be made in advance of that time and if so made will simply be filed as re ceived upon the date of May 22nd. After the law goes into effect, there is a period of two months 'during which time stock owners will be priv ileged to file their brands with the state veterinarian. During the two months period all brands will be fil ed according to the particular class to which they belong, either alpha betical, numerical or special charac ters and combination of same. "It will also be necessary that the parties filing their brands indicate the length of time the brand has been recorded with any of the county clerks of any of the counties of the state. Also, it will be necessary that a notation be made whether or not the brand has been re-recorded in compliance with the brand re-recording law, passed during the legislative session of 1913, known as Chapter 262, General Laws of Oregon for 1913. "The attorney general has ruled that those brands that have been du ly re-recorded will take precedence over all other brands that have not been re-recorded, regardless of the time they may have been in existence. "It will, of course, be necessary that we secure from the several coun ty dorks a certified copy of the rec ord of all brands that have been filed with the several counties of the state. These will all be compared during the two month period in which the law is inactive. "Such brands that do not conflict in any way will be immediately re corded upon the tendering of the fee which is $1.00 for recording same. Brands which in any way conflict will necessarily have to be adjudicat ed. The owner of the brand, how ever, which has been longest record-, ed, by the terms of the law, has rights over all others, provided it has been properly re-recorded. "We will have available blanks for the making of applications, ready for distribution in the course of a few days, and will mail them to the coun ty clerks of the several counties. We have already mailed copies of the brand recording law to the county judges of the several counties of the state. "Very respectfully, "W. II. LYTLE, "State Veterinarian.'

That the ser ies of celebrations planned by the cities of the Columbia Valley for the week of May litis, in honor of me openliis r The Dalles-Celiln Canal, will eclipse in attendance, human intercut and constructive pub licity any public event of the year in the Nnrth'.vest is evident. From every section of the United States in quiries are pouring in upon the gen eral committee, from press, commer cial bodies and individuals, for infor mation touching the enterprise to be commemorated and its bearing upon the territory with which it is related. The actual participants in the cel ebration at various points will in clude official representatives of the United States government, the Paci fic States, the Army and Navy, com mercial organizations, navigation officers (pioneer and active), good roads enthusiasts and thousands of people from the farms and cities of the Columbia Valley. The program at the various points of celebration will be distinctive and, in addition to the recognition given the canal opening, will set forth the local elements relative to the open river. A marked feature of the fes tival will be the emphasis given to the construction of highways leading from the interior productive sections to strategic points on the river. In fact great road building campaigns seem to be developing at Lewiston, Walla Walla. Pendleton, Maryhill and Biggs. This part of the celebra tion will be given especial promi nence in the program to be staged at Maryhill and Goldendale May 5th, where there will be a great assembly of good roads representatives of the Northwest, and at Walla Walla, where the forenoon of May 4th will be de voted to the discussion of highways. The formal opening at Big Eddy, May 5th, will witness the passing through the canal of a great fleet of boats and thousands of people from the upper and lower reaches of the mighty river. Engineer F. C. Schu bert is in charge of the local prepar ations and will provide a platform at the edge of the canal 20 x 60 feet for the use of speakers and distin guished guests as well as special loges for official delegations and the two score young women who will act as sponsors, each bearing a bottle of water from a tributary of the Columbia. The religious phase of the occa sion will be set forth by an invoca tion by Rt. Kev. Chas. J. O'Reilly, D. D., Bishop of Baker City (in whose diocese the canal is located) and the benediction by Rev. Walter T. Sum ner, D. D., Bishop of Oregon. James 3. Ramage, President of the Spokane Chamber of Commerce, will give an address in behalf of the commercial bodies of the Columbia basin. One United States Senator and one Mem ber of Congress, (to be designated) will present greetings on behalf of the United States government. Gov ernor James Withycombe will extend a welcome in behalf of Oregon, Gov ernor Ernest Lister for Washington and Governor Moses Alexander for Idaho. T. C. Elliott of Walla Walla, will give a brief historical outline, and Joseph N. Teal of Portland, a re view of the Celilo Canal. Massed bands will render popular airs and the people will join in the National anthem. Engineer Schubert is ar ranging the celebration setting so that spectators on the boats and on shore will have equal opportunity for observation. Preceding and following the form al opening, celebration features will be held at The Dalles, including a banquet at night, May 5th. On May 6th celebrations will be held at Vancouver, Washington, and Port land, while the climax will take place at Astoria, Oregon, May 7th and 8th in connection with the Sixth Annual Convention of the Columbia and Snake River Waterways Asso ciation, at which time full inspection will be made of all maritime and scenic interests at the mouth of the Columbia river. JUST RECEIVED by FORK8T XOTKS. Nine hundred coyote pelts were submitted to the Lincoln county (Wyoming) Woolgrowers' Associa tion, at its recent meeting, for the bounty of $2.50 apiece, offered by the Association. An association has just been form ed by stockmen located in and around Crater Lake National Forest in Southern Oregon. This organiza tion, known as the South Butte Cattle and Horse Association, has been offi cially recognized by the district for ester, and has for its main object the economical and beneficial handling of the stock and range within the National Forest. Stockmen using the government range have constructed, to date, ap proximately 185 miles of drift fence in Washington and Oregon, to pre vent the cattle and horses from drift ing onto the sheep range.
