Oregon Eighth In
Rural Electrical
Power Service
Oregon is a national leader In
the field of rural electrification,
ranking eighth in percentage of
farms with electric service, ac
cording to survey results sent
the O.S.C. extension service by
the Rural Electrification admin
istration.
Only 4,899 Oregon farms, or
7.8 percent of all farms in the
state, do not have electric ser-
ice, the survey shows. The sur
vey lists Connecticut, with all
but 1.5 percent of its farms elec
trified, at top of the list in farm
electrification program, followed
bv Rhode Island, Massachusetts,
New Jersey, Washington, New
York, Idaho, and Oregon, in that
order.
The study which analyzes the
nation's rural electrification pro
gress up to June 30, 1947, shows
that 2l4 million farms or 39 per
cent of all farms in the United
States, were not electrified at
that time.
The report states that a min
imum of $241,248 in new REA
loans will be available to rural
electric groups in Oregon before
June 30, 1948. Congress has made
available $225,000,000 in loan
funds for national use during
this fiscal year, of which half
is allotted to the various states
in direct proportion to their
needs. The other half is avail
able on a flexible basis, with no
single state to get more than 10
percent of it.
The nation's aVerage of elec
trified farms has increased from
one out of ten in 1936 to six out
of ten today, the report states,
with more rural power lines be
ing built today than ever before.
REA borrowers constructed ap
proximately 72,000 miles of dis
tribution lines and connected
nearly 300,000 rural consumers
to their systems between July 1,
1946 and June 30, 1947, in addi
tion to new construction by pri
vate companies.
'The task remaining will be
more difficult than what has
been accomplished," said Claude
R. Wickard, REA administrator.
"For the most part, the areas
easy to electrify have been elec
trified."

mud springs are curious basins
about ten feet deep by ten to
twenty across, in which messes
of mud the consistency of hash
house mush goes shlush! slush!
slush! for 24 hours a day.
There are places where you ;
pass great seams in the ground,
out of which puff sulphorous j
smoke and steam, and as your
horse s feet sink through the up
per crust you feel as though you
might at any moment go clean
through to the Infernal regions.
The altitude is quite elevated
so much so that we actually fail-
ed in trying to cook a mess of
beans. The longer we boiled
them the harder they got. We
boiled them all night, and threw
them away the next morning,
and beans never seemed so good
as when we found we could not
cook them.
We have several times passed
old camps where inscriptions on
trees told us where there were
the spots where Gen Howard's
little army had camped in 1877
while on the trail of Chief Jo
seph's hostile Nez Perces. I be
lieve the boys in blue must have
been entirely out of bacon and
hardtack when marching thru
the Yellowstone Park, judging
from the following inscription
written in pencil on a tree from
which the outer bark had been
scraped with a trowel bayonet:
"Howard's army camped here
Sept. 4, '77. Chief Joseph and
Fisher s scouts three days ahead.
Surrounding scenery would be
darn fine if a fellow had any
grub in his stomach. Wormy
trout and scenery don't pull to
gether. God bless our camp
(and send in a supply train). A.
J. Fay, E Co., 21st Infantry."
Having now covered all the
brown paper in camp, I will quit
scribbling and roll up in my sad

It's about a movie, a movie called

"Stairway to Heaven," filmed in new

and features David Niven, Raymond

superb acting of these three that
make it worthy of attention.
