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.'

Portland, April 7. 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.
According to the latest reports of
the Department of Agriculture, there
has been a marked increase, during
the past year, in the numbers and
values of every class of live stock on
farms and ranges in the United Sta
tes. The value of this live stock is
now estimated at $5,969,253,000, an
increase of $78,024,000 over the val
uation of a year ago.
