Newberg Graphic Gives Fine Account of Recent Over
flow of Willamette. Horses, Cattle, and Other
Animals Lost In Muddy Torrent. Logging Com
pany Loses Large Rafts of Logs and Forced to Shut
Down By High Water. S. P. Company Crippled.
From Newberg Graphic of January II, 1923.
Once more the Willamette has gone on the rampage and taken toll
which will run into the hundreds of
in with our own river are all of the other rivers in this part of Ore
gon. Following a succession of heavy rains which for days and days
soaked up the ground came a week of almost steady downpour which
flooded every creek and small stream and raised them to the standing
of rivers. Creeks were formed where none had been before and every
gully and ravine contributed its stream of water to that flowing into
the Willamette. As a result that river climbed steadily until it reached
the flood stage, then swept over its banks and inundated all of the low
land on both sides. At this point the river sretched out over the low
lands for miles. Houses which ordinarily stand on high and dry land
were surrounded and some almost completely submerged.
The bridge across the Willamette at
this place was covered Sunday night
and by Monday night 250 feet of the
Marion county end was floating loose
from the piling At the end of the
bridge the water was then sJme
twenty feet deep At Dayton the
Yamhill river was out of its banks
and over two hundred feet of water
covered the highway at this end of
the bridge making traffic detour by
way of Lafayette to get to McMinn
ville. All day the rising river was watch
ed and that day a boom of logs be
longing tt the Spaulding Logging Co.
at this place broke loose and came
down. This boom struck the bridge
pier broadside. The bridge trembled
like a leaf but held firm. The log
raft broke up and went swirlilng
down the river. The Spaulding peo
ple lost 350.000 feet of logs at Salem
and on Monday evening hud six feet
of water in their boiler rooms in that
city. The sawmill was shut down here
with the coming of hi,jh water and
will be unable to rea-ime oi erations
for at least several days and r-ssibly
a week. Two hundred feet of their
logging railroad wu .v.M,j cut i.
the Grand Ronde'Coui.tv where a
till had been made nnJ thi. wil! ltve
to be repaired.
Monday morning the gauge at the
sawmill indicated a r.Uuxe of -19 feet
above low level. On Monday after
noon the water had raised to 51 feet
6 inches, and was still raising slight
ly. This was a raise of 2 and one
feet in about five hours' time.
Old-timers say that this is the high
est stage which the river has reached
since 1M0. Some say that in 1907 it
was higher. However, Austin Keeney
says that at the sawmill the river
only reached 49 feet in 1907. and in
1909 it renched 51 feet. This is not
quite as high as it was on Monday
afternoon, with the river still rising.
In lKl'O it is said that the high water
stage reached 60 feet. At that time
the buildings at Champoeg were all
washed out.
Sundny night shots were heard at
regular intervals coming from across
the river. Henry Chase finally went
to investigate and found some peo
ple marooned in a house in the flood.
He rescued them. They proved to be
two men, Charles Bonnier and Frank
Murphy. i
John Gearin, who lives across the
river on the north side of the road
nnd just beyond the bridge, was in
Portland where it is said that one of
his children is In the hospital. Dur
ing the night the water completely
engulfed his buildlings. His horses
and cows were in the barn. There
were about six horses and 10 cowfi
and all were drowned. Efforts were
made by several men in boats to res
cue these animals which were stilt
alive on Monday but they could not
get them out. It is also said that Mr.
Gearin had a large number of sheep
and goats on his place, all of which
are thought to have been drowned.
On Monday a row boat brought a
lady and little baby up to the bridge
where they were landed. They had
been staying at the Henta hop ranch
The buildings at the Bents place
were surrounded and water was well
up on the barn.
The old partly finished bungalow
which was originally erected for
road house was In the flood and tho
water on Monday evening was within
about five feet of the roof.
Many other buildings throughout
this section of the vnllcly were sub
merged. The house of A. Barcroft was
surrounded by water and Mr. Bar
croft was operating his gasoline
launch to get in and out.
It is said that the house of Paul
Menard wns washed away during the
night Sunday and the river was filled
with floating debris of nil kinds on
Monday. The Chase launch was re
quisitioned to clear away a groat
quantity of logs, stumps and other
Moating debris which was lodging
against the Marion county end of the
river bridge to take the strain off the
structure.
The water which was pouring down

thousands of dollars. And joining
through the canyon where the rail
road crosses the Villa Road weakened
the trestle there and washed out
some hundred feet of fill. Train ser
vice was held up on Monday as a re
sult. The morning train came down
from McMinnville and went through
to this point and waited there for the
Portland train. Passengers were
transferred here and both trains 1
backtracked. No other trains were
sent through until 6:30 o'clock that
evening, when a similar method was
employed to handle the passengers.
No mail came into Newberg all day.
Monday.
At Dayton the water was still ris-
ing at 1:30 Monday afternoon, having
risen about four inches in half an
hour there. Here too buildings were
under water. A new chicken house
of good size washed down the Tarn
hill and lodged just above the Day
ton bridge Monday morning. Two
young men were ferrying persons
across from the end of the bridge to
the dry land at the edge of the water ;
so that they could get to and from I
Dayton. j
The flood waters in the Willamette
at this place reached their crest at
abount noon on Tuesday when the
gauge at the sawmill registered about
55 feet 6 inches. By this time all of
the buUdings on the John Gearin
place had been washed away and the
water had reached the edge of the
roof of the old unfinished road house.
It is said that the main current of
the river has changed and is sweep
ing down through a straight channel
about a mile from the river bridge
at this place. How much of a chan
nel it has cut there is unknown.
On Tuesday afternoon the waters
began dropping and by Wednesday
morning had fallen at least four feet.
A heavy rain fell again on Tuesday
night and at intervals throughout
Wednesday.
On Tuesday afternoon the pile dri
ver arrived to work in putting in
piling to nil the gap where the grade
was undermined on the S. P. track at
the north edge of Newberg. This
work was carried on through Wed
nesday and it was hoped to have the
track sufficiently in shape to run over
by this (Thursday) morning.
On Tuesday a cow floated down the
river and lodged in the brush near
the bridge, but on account of the
brush it was impossible to get in end
rescue her. Other thinge were seen
floating in the river. At the Bents
place the water got up into the barn
and it is said that at least two cows
are dead there.
A Mr. Hickman, who lived on the
island near Dundee, lost a horse and
his supply of meat and other eatables
when the river tore a barge from its
moorings and carried it away.
By Tuesday noon the river had
raised fully 400 feet of the Marion
county end of the bridge and floated
it. This is almost to the turn in the
brdige and the end of the structure
Is moved fully 25 feet from its or
iginal bed.
Curtis Coleman and wife, who were
living at tho Fawkes bungalow, were
taken out by boat wo are informed,
but have not learned where they were
taken.
All communication with the St.
Paul country has been severed as all
roads are closed by the flood and the
telephone lines are down. Doubt
less much of the damnge done by the
high waters on that side of the river
will not be learned until the waters
have subsided sufficiently to allow
persons to get over there.
On Thursday morning news came
over the wires that the (ill on tho S,
P. near Lafayette had gone out and
that train communication from the
south would be stopped. This proved
to be incorrect, however. The till was
threatened and a small portion gave
way, but not enough to stop train
service. The pile drivers were kept
going all night Wednesday night on
the wnshout between Now1erg and
Springbrook to try and get train ser
vice to Portland restored. At the
time uf going to press this was still
unfinished and it was thought that it
would be ready to carry trains be
fore the night train tonight.
The water in the river fell steadily
all night Wednesday night and on
Thursday in spite of the heavy rains
at noon the river had fallen eight
feet. The approach to the river
bridge was pulled back into position
and the receding waters showed that
much damage had been done to it.
It is probable that some two or three
hundred feet of approach will have
to be practically rebuilt. At noon
Thursday no communication had been
established with St. Paul.
Cooperative Marketing
Sweepbg the Country
.Nearly 2 Million Fanners Are Selling
Collectively, One-Half Under
Contract
"The cooperative marketing move
ment is sweeping the whole country
from the Atlantic to the Pacific,"
said C. J. Hurd, market specialist of
the O. A. C. Extension service on re
turning from the National Cooperat
ive council at Washington. "More
than a million and a half farmers
were represented when the council
met, and 15,000 names were wired in
from the cotton growers association
alone while the council was in ses
sion." A state-wide cooperative marketing
educational campaign has been agreed
on by the 12 organization members
composing the Oregon Cooperative
council which met in Salem January
17. This will carry the idea into
every community in the state.
The purposes, methods and results
of cooperative selling will be ex
plained by extension specialists. Lo
cal arrangements and other assist
ance will be given by the representa
tives of the council
The state grange, farmers union.
farm bureau, bankers association, ag
cultural committee of the Portland
chamber of commerce, the state col
lege extension service and bureau of
markets, and the five state-wide com
modity marketing associations are
back of the movement The five as
sociations are growers of grain, fruit,
wool, poultry and hay.
Governor Pierce approves the plan
and asked the council to name a com
mittee to help draft a market master
bill for enactment at this session of
the legislature.
"Bill" Hanley of Oregon, president
of the State chamber of commerce,
said he is greatly impressed with the
work already accomplished and is in
favor of extending it.
W. B. D. Dodson, manager of the
Portland chamber of commerce, was
reported as saying that the big $300,
000 development plan would not be
a complete success until every farm
er has an opportunity to market co
operatively. Educators Praise Picture
"The Four Seasons"
When "The Four Seasons" played
recent pre-release engagement at
the Rialto Theatre, New York, it ex
cited more attention from educators
and children than any motion picture
that was ever shown on Broadway.
It is a fear's biagraphy of Nature;
it enables audiences to live a year in
an hour and for sheer beauty as well
as instructional value it probably has
never been surpassed. It is a cycle
of the seasons taken under the per
sonal direction of Raymond L. Dit
mars, Curator of the New York
Zoological Society, and edited under
the personal supervision of Charles
Urban, President of the Kineto Com
pany of America.

washed away by the spring rains.
Spring flowers and frogs appear as
harbingers of the new season and
birds from the southland begin their
netting.
Soon there are little tadpoles, young
robins open their wide mouths and
the buck deer drops his antlers, so
that the little fawns may not be
harmed.
And so it goes through the four
seasonsas though one walked thru
the woods and mountains and met the
same animals, the changing flowers
and trees again and again. Little
squirrels become larger and more
courageous and the fawns become
graceful, racing creatures.
Finally comes winter, predicted by
the changing formation of the clouds,
and then follows the snow storm,
covering the hibernating animals that
had crawled back into the holes' and
under the rocks from which they ap
peared at the birth of spring.

Man's life is full of trouble and temptation He comes
into the world without his consent and goes out of it against
his will. His journey through life is full of strange and contra
dictory happenings.
When he is little the big girls kiss him, and when he is big
the little girls kiss him.
When he is little he wants candy but can't have it, and
when he is a man he can get it but doesn't want it.
When he is a boy he wishes he were a man, and when he
is a man he wishes he were a boy again.
If he raises a large family he is a chump, if he raises a
check he is a thief.
If he is a poor man he is a bad manager, and if he is rich
he is dishonest.
If he puts forth an effort to collect what is justly due him
he is a sausage and ought to get beat.
If he is in politics it is for graft, and if out of politics, you
can't place him and he is no good to his country.
If he gives to charity it is for show, and if he does not, he
is a stingy old cuss.
If he dies young there was a great future before him, and
if he lives to an old age he has missed his calling.
If he is affectionate he is a softy, if he isn't he's a cold
blooded proposition.
So, in order to be entirely healthy and avoid all criticism
he must eat nothing, drink nothing, smoke nothing, and if
he wants better printing at right prices he must get it at
