The first of last week E. A. Linde-
ken made a drive of a hundred
and fifty miles or more, through
the wheat fields of the Sand Hollow,
Lexington and Eight Mile flats and
Condon country. He found some
good looking fields every place, and
many that were weedy and showed
a lack of moisture. The best wheat
was in the Eightmile flats, with
some exceptionally good fields show
ing up in the Sand Hollow district
It is his opinion that there are only
a few fields that give promise of a
good yield. However an abundance
of rain during the month of June
will materially change the outlook.

Forest Protection Funds
For States Increased
An increase in allotments for fed
eral cooperation with states in forest-lire
control, of $21,234 for Wash
ington and $18,563 for Oregon, is
announced by the forest service of
fice at Portland. These increases,
which bring the amounts up to $90,
389 in Washington and $83,575 in
Oregon, are made possible by an In
crease of $200,000 in the total con
gressional appropriation for all
states carried by the last agricul
tural appropriation bill The total
now stands at $1,400,000 for the fis
cal year beginning July 1. In total
amounts received for fiscal year
1929, California leads but with only
$38 more than Washington, which
stands second; Minnesota third, and
Oregon fourth.
Much of this total increase for
1930 will come to the western states
where the funds are used to build
up adequate organizations and
equipment for fire detection and
suppression on privately-owned tim
ber lands, under the principle that
government, state, and private own
er each has a definite responsibility
in forest protection. This 1924 act
therefore covers the protection from
fire of state and private forest lands
only, and is entirely apart from pro
tection expenditures on the national
forests, which are cared for under
separate appropriations.
The government amounts now
available are estimated to cover
$19,050 less than one-fourth of the
cost, in Oregon, of fire prevention,
and $5,861 below one-fourth in
Washington, the remaining cost be
ing supplied by the states and timber-land
owners. Both, states are
working toward adequate systems
of protection for all state and privately-owned
forest lands. Under
this plan the costs would be met
by a three-way division, the federal
government and the state bearing
one-half the expense and the land
owners bearing the other half.
The growing of timber is a long
time crop which requires that own
ers of cut-over lands have assist
ance in their protection during the
time the lands are non-productive,
as recognized by forest-tax law
passed by the last Oregon legisla
ture. In a region where there is
danger of forest fires spreading over
large areas, as is the case in most
forested regions, an individual own
er is helpless in protecting his hold
ings independently, and it is to en
courage organized protective meth
ods as well as to have the public
bear a part of the cost that the
Clarf-.s-JIcNary act was passed in
1924. Thirty-five states are now co
operating with the federal govern
ment under this act

VEIi a quarter of a million
users are enjoying General Electric refrigera
tors, and not one of them has spent a dollar for
fservice! Your first investment for safe, sure,
electric refrigeration is your last when you
choose a General Electric!
Here's the why and wherefore
of this remarkable record! Fifteen years of re
search and development were conducted before
the first General Electric was put on the market !
Experiment after experiment
produced a refrigerator with a hermetically
sealed, dust-proof mechanism, mounted on top
a refrigerator with an improved type of cab
inet mounted on legs one with an accessible
temperature control that established a new
standard of quiet operation that required no
oiling that dispensed with all troublesome
machinery that lowered operating costs
that carried an unqualifi d two-year service
guarantee.
Now, comes a radical improve
ment in the cabinet.' It is all-steel. It
cannot warp! It is now as strong as a safe! It
will never develop tiny cracks and crevices that
let warm air into a refrigerator.
