Secretary Houston lias just announ ced the plan to be pursued in spend ing the ten million dollars appropri ated by the Federal Aid Road Act for the construction and maintainance of oads and trails within or partly with in National Forests, and has tentati vely allotted among the various Na tional Forests States the million dol lars which is expendable this fiscal year. The tentative allotments to the principal National Forest States are as follows: Alaska, $-16,280; Ari zona, $59,795; Arkansas, $11,294; California, $140,763; Colorado, $62, 335; Idaho, $108,010; Montana $89, 901; Nevada, $19,195; New Mexico $42,622; Oregon, $127,794; South Dakota, $8,115; Washington,$91, 739; Wymong, 540,5 6. In addition, a total of $9,552 has been tentatively assigned to Florida, Mi chigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Oklahoma, while the Eastern States, Maine, New Hamp shire, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Geargia in which the Govern ment is purchasing lands for National forests, have been allotted $21,057. "In general," said Secretary Hous ton, "the States and the counties will be required to furnish cooperation in an amount at least equal to 50 per cent of the estimated cost of the sur veys and construction. However, upon a satisfactory showing by . the applicant State or County that such a proporation of cooperation is Inequitable, it may be altered and the ratio of cooperation filed upon a basis equtable to both the State or County and the United States." The method followed in apportion ing the money was explained by Sec retary Houston as follows: Ten per cent of the amount available each year will be withheld as a contigent fund. Ono-half of the remainder will be allotted to the States in a- mounts which will be based on the area of National Forest lands in each State. , The other half will be appor tioned on a basis of estimated value of timber and forage resources which the Forests contain. Amounts ap portioned but unexpended within three years, and any balance of the contigent fund which remains unap portioned at the end of each year, will be reapportioned on the same basis as the original allotments. The two groups of states to which lump sums are allotted are, it was ex plained, to be considered as single units of apportionment. Apportion ments now to be made are for the current fiscal year only. Thereafter new apportionments will be made, giving consideration to the number and character of anplicants made by the State and County officials for ex penditures on specific projects. These applications must be filed with the District Foresters in the seven Na tional Forest District on or before January 1 of each year, for the fiscal year beginning the following July 1. The determination of the projects upon which funds will be expended during the current fiscal year will be made on the basis of applications which must be filed with the District Foresters on or before October 1, 1916. Each application must con tain a statement of the public needs to be served by the proposed road and the manner and extent to which it would aid in the development of the resources upon which the communi ties within or adjacent to the Nation al Forests are dependent, and must also show the general location of the proposed road and its estimated cost. As already stated, in General States and counties must be prepared to fur nish cooperation equal to at least 50 per cent of the estimated cost Qf sur veys and construction. This coopera tion may be in the form of nionef, la bor and materials or the construrtion of roads Where other factors are equal, the approval of a project may be determined upon the relative a niount of cooperation offered. Many applications have, it is Btated, al ready been received for expenditures upon specific projects. Pendleton, Ore.. August 29. Pen dleton is preparing to entertain more than 60,000 visitors at the 1916 Round-Up, September 21. 22, and 23. Never before have so many orders for tickets and sleeping accommodations flooded the Round-Up headquarters. From the eastern cities of Boston and N'ewTork, from the southern cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco and the northern cities of Seattle and Vancouver, B, C. are daily arriving requests for grandstand seats. San Francisco who has heretofore been represented at the Round -Up with a special car and so will this year send a special Pullman train to the show. To accommodate the Bay City visi tors 300 reserved seats have been set aside. Spokane will send a special train for the first time in several years. The Portland Journal will send at least two and probably more specials from Portland and there will be spe cials from Boise, La Grande, Walla Walla and the west and east ends of Umatilla County. The show itself will be far supe rior to anything ever seen In the past. Performers are already arriving on the scene of action. Allan Drum heller, winner of the cowboys' relay last year, has two strings at work on Round-Up park and Bertha Blanchett is working out daily with her horses. Ed McCarty will arrive soon with his outfit of horses and cowboys'. Ruth Parton, winner of last year's cowgirls' relay will arrive September 1. At least eleven relay strings will be on hand for the opening day of the show. All in all Pendleton expects 191 to" W the banner Round-Up year. L.

It & It .Manual Training Men Demand Out Of flight. With its last available manual training teacher already employed the Industrial Arts department at O. A. C. faces a shortage of men fitted foi this work for the coming school year. The demand for manual training teachers is out of sight. A total of 22 have been placed within the last few weeks, and there are on file re quests for four men in Oregon, three in Washington and one in Idaho. In addition this department has received seven wires within the past week from teachers' agencies, asking for trained men. The average salary for the first year men is more than $100 a month. One cause of the lack of supply is the increase in the number of schools of Oregon, urban and rural, which are carrying this work. Another is the high standard of work set by State School Superintendent J. A. Churchill and other school authorites. The slip-shod work of earlier teachers having little or no special qualifica tions for this work has been elimina ted by the present policy of certifica tion, and only trained and competent instructors are entrusted with ' the manual training work. School will soon comm.ice. Were your chi'dren backward in their stud ies last year? If so it may be due to eye trouble of some kind. An edu cation obtained at the expense of eye sight, is of small value. It is better to obtain both by seeing that the children's eyes are right. Children cannot tell you whether their eyes are right or wrong. Bring them to Dr. Turner and let him give their eyes a most thorough searching and scientific examination with the latest improved electrical instruments, and he will tell you whether they are right or wrong. Is not such informa tion almost beyond price? Yet there is no charge, for consultation or exa mination. If they do not need glas ses, Dr. Turner will most positively not recommend them. You owe this to your children. Dr. Turner will have a private office at Palace hotel during Fair. Consult him. He has been making regular visits to Hepp ner every thirty days for nearly three years, and absolutely guarantees sat isfaction. Don't forget the date. C. M. Redgeld and family passed through Heppner Monday on their may to Pendleton. They reside at Bend and had been visiting at the home of Mrs. Redfleld's parents, Mr. and Mrs. M. Pitzmaurice at Condon.
