Chapter Organization to
be Completed ; Endorse
ment of Bills in View.
Permanent organization of Hepp
ner chapter of the Izaak Walton
league will be effected at the coun
cil chambers tomorrow evening. L.
Van Marter, chairman of the tem
porary organization, in issuing the
call says that the charter has been
received, sufficient membership en
rolled and everything set for going
ahead.
Preliminary steps for the organ
ization of a local chapter of the
league were taken early In the sum
mer, when more than sixty local
sportsmen signed the application
for charter. The Izaak Walton
league Is a national organization,
having for its primary purpose pres
ervation of the great, outdoors. Lo
cal, state and national chapters are
Included in the organization, all co
operating to carry out mutual In
terests. At the organization meeting to
morrow, Mr. Van Marter will ask
for the local chapter's endorsement
of three bills to appear on the No
vember ballot, namely those seeking
to protect the Rogue, McKenzie
and Deschutes rivers against en
croachment by private power com
panies, In the interest of fishing
and natural worth of these streams.
"The Rogue and McKenzie rivers
are especially famed for their plen
teous fishing, and the McKenzie is
the greatest salmon spawning
stream in the state," declared Mr.
Van Marter, who has It on author
ity of the Oregon State Game com
mission that installation of a dam
for power purposes would drive the
fish out He cited as example dams
on the John Day river that have
kept salmon from going up It, which
before the dams were installed wgre
found there In large numbers. Since
the dam went out at Spray this
spring, salmon have been caught
abot'e there this season.
"Fishing Is the third largest In
dustry in the state, and produces
far more revenue to the state than
power development Besides, the
tourist business , in Oregon is in
creasing millions of dollars yearly,
Oregon's scenic attractions draw
this business, which again is worth
more In returns to the state coffers
than power development Again,
the Btreams mentioned are not need
ed for power development as Ore
gon has untold water power aside
from these, ample to electrify the
state for many years to come," Mr.
Van Marter continued, basing his
assertions on information obtained
through the Oregon State Game
Protective association. "Oregon's
greatest asset is her scenic beauty
and natural resources. And the
jewels of these, the three rivers
included, should not be allowed to
be prostituted by selfish, private in
terests. California closed the Klam
ath river to power development for
like reasons, and large power In
terests there are looking to easily
accessible power in Oregon to sup
ply parts of that state. Their plans
include development on the Rogue
and McKenzie, and should this go
through Oregon's remuneration
would be small. It is to the Interests
of every Oregontan to vote for the
proposed measures."

CAR TURNS TURTLE.
While on the way to Heppner on
Sunday morning, N. S. Phelps of
Kelso, Wash., met with misfortune
in having his car, a Chrysler sedan,
tin turtle on the highway about
four miles east of Arlington, At
the time of the accident the car was
-rounding a curve, and on this turn
another car passed at a rapid speed.
In setting the brakes to slow down
the car skidded off the highway and
struck the sand on an incline. The
machine rolled over easily, once and
a half, but the occupants were not
all so fortunate as to escape Injury.
In the sedan were Mr. and Mrs.
Phelps and Mrs. Wm. Luntsford
and two daughters. Mrs. Phelps
received a severe cut on the leg
that required several stitches to
close, and Mrs. Lunceford was cut

President K. G. Warner of Pen
dleton, now at the head of the Ore
gon Wool Growers' association, ap
peared on the program at a meet
ing of more than 60 sheepmen of
this district held In Elks temple last
Thursday. Mr. Warner discussed
matters of legislation of importance
to the sheep Industry, urging a clo
ser study of public affairs Insofar aa
they affected sheep owners. He re
ferred to the uniform bounty law,
known as the Utah law, wherein by
state law .livestock owners would be
assessed to provide funds for pay
ing bounties and otherwise encour
aging the control of predatory ani
mals. Among other things Mr. War
ner said, "I am rather Inclined to
oppose this law, but urge stockmen
to become familiar with this
proposed legislation In order that
they may act in a manner best suit
ed to the proper solution of this
important matter. Mr. Warner
went on to discuss the wool tariff,
pointing out that wool growers will
never derive fuii benefit from the
tariff until they get together on a
wool selling plan that will handle
their clips in an organized manner.
The migratory stock tax law was
touched upon by the president who
indicated that in some counties the
law is not being utilized as intend
ed when passed by the state legis
lature. "If the present law Is not
satifactory," Mr. Warner said, "let's
get together and pass one that will
fill the need."
In arguing for closer organization
Of the men now in the wool produc
ing business, Mr. Warner cited the
organized dairymen and poultry
owners of this state, each organiza
tion having secured state funds for
Investigating diseases now causing
heavy losses. At the present time
very little is being done toward
stopping the severe disease losses
of Oregon sheep. Other matters
dealt with were what Mr. Warner
termed freak legislation aimed to
prevent stockmen from using the
public highway for moving live
stock, In connection with which he
asked sheep owners to give consid
eration to motorists and other per
sons and do everything fair and
reasonable to all concerned when
handling stock on the highways. He
closed his remarks by stating that
there Is developing some sentiment
for a consolidation of the Oregon
Wool Growers association and the
Oregon Cattle and Horse Growers'
association. According to the speak
er this is a matter for consideration
by interested parties, but not a
thing to be done hastily.
Kershaw Gives Demonstration.
Walter Holt, secretary of the as
sociation, whose talk was covered In
lust week's issue of this paper, made
a plea for cooperation, responded
to by a number of new association
memberships.
Another Important feature of the
meeting was a wool grading demon
stration and talk by James Ker
shaw, wool expert of the Pacific Co
operative Wool Glowers' associa
tion. Mr. Kershaw made the state
ment that there are more klnda of
wool grown in Oregon than in any
other state, going on to show why
it is necessary for all fleeces to be
graded as to length and strength
of liber and as to color before the

wool can be used by the mills. This
wool expert Is carrying with him
for this series of ten meetings eight
fleeces of wool which he utilizes in
demonstrating seven grades of wool
as known to the wool-buying trade.
It was interesting to note that wools
grading as sixties are capable of
making sixty hanks of yarn, each
hank containing 560 yards, this fea
ture being used by the United
States Department of Agriculture
in its new method of classifying
wools. "Contrary to common opin
ion," said Mr. Kershaw, "all the
wools prdouced in Australia are not
of superior quality, the high tariff
on wool imported into this country
making It necessary that first grade
wool be shipped here. While
handling the various fleeces he told
for what each grade is used, men
tioning suitings, flannels, felts, blan
kets, etc., adding that certain de
fects in wools as they come from
the sheep have a very definite ef
fect on values. What is known to
wool interests as kemp is a dead,
white fiber which has no spinning
qualities and does not take the same
dyes as do wools, according to Mr.
Kershaw. Colored fleeces, In fact
any wools not pure white, must be
given a lower grade in the market
due to the fact that such wools re
quire special handling. Another off
grade wool comes from what are
known as broken fleeces, the fiber
in these breaking very easily, the
defect being caused through the
sheep having been sick or In some
other manner thrown temporarily
out of thrifty condition. "Stained
wools are a cause of much loss to
careless wool growers," said this
wool expert who continued by say
ing that "producers should avoid
packing wools that are damp, as
discoloring and rotting are sure to
result. Tags should never be put
into the same bag with better wools
and the practice of rolling wet tags
inside an otherwise good fleece is
avoided by those interested in plac
ing on the market a satxisactory
product" According to Mr. Ker
shaw the grower is only fooling
himself when he mixes defective
wools with good. Vegetable matter
intermingled with fleece fibers is
responsible for many clips being re
duced in grade, and what are other
wise top notch wools are often ma
terially lowered in price to the
grower. If there is more than 3
of vegetable matter in wool it goes
into the seedy or burry grades for
the reason that the foreign material
must be removed by carbonizing
through the use of acids, the charge
for this treatment being about 5
cents per pound. By, no means
should binder twine be used for
wrapping fleeces or sewing wool
bags, and the informed wool man
always uses paper twine around the
fleeces. The reason for this being
in the fact that paper twine will
scour out and the other will hot
Mr. Kershaw closed his remarks by
urging sheepmen to use only the
best grades of branding fluids for
marking their sheep and to strictly
avoid branding with tar, pitch,
house paint and other similar ma
terials, the latter being impossible
of removal from the wool. It is ap
parent that one of the least under
derstood phases of the wool 'grow
ing business, insofar as the grower
is concerned, is the matter of wool
grades and how to best prepare it
for market
