MUST HEREAFTER LABEL ALL "FLOATED" OYSTERS RAILROAD OVER ALL OFMEGOI Looks as If Most Remote Districts of State Will Soon Be Given Rail road Facilities Woolgrowcrs to Meet in Portland. WASHINGTON, Juno 17. It has Tinnn dnoiflnd liv Rpnmtnrv of Airri- culture Wilson that oysters cauKiltKn sheep raisers, and many blooded PORTLAND, Or., Juno 17. By tho end ot tho present year It Is promised that the most reinoto districts ot Ore gon will bo served by railroad trans portation. Central Oregon will havo two main Hues, the Oregon Trunk and the Deschutes railroads and tho build ing ot these roads Is ot courso the prlmo achievement of tho year In transportation. In addition, tho Ilar rlman line to Tillamook will be com pleted and much progress will havo been made by tho end ot tho year on tho Natron-Klamath road. This year tho cost of contracts for new railway lines and betterments In this state will aggregato about $30,000,000. Many other Important now projects will undoubtedly bo mapped out and started boforo 1911. Portland will get the -17th annual convention of the National Wool Growers' association, tho dates for which have just been fixed for Jan uary 5, G and 7, 1911.

The new decision was tho result of the many briefs and reams of evidence sub mitted since the food inspection de cision, No. 110, on tho practice of "floating or drinking oysters in wa ter of less saline content thnn that in which they were originally caught." The practico of floating oysters is old. The young oysters are caught in tho sea and brought inland, where they are nlaccd in fresh water. The effect of the fresh water is to en hance greatly tho size and weight of tho oyster, but at tho same time it detracts from tho succulcacj of the bivalve. It has been stated hy au thorities that this process of ma turing oysters also makes them more susceptiblu to decay, but this is de nied by oyster growers. It was con clusively proven, however, that oys ters shipped to the Pacific coast and other points in the west cannot bo taken from the floated product. Tho decisiou warns tho oyster grower that particular attention should bo paid to the character ot the water in which oysters are to be brought to maturity. Where such waters aro polluted it invariably fol lows that tho oysters, well known as scavengers, will partake of this pol lution, and subsequent washing in pure water is not likely to cleanse them of impurities. BALLINGER SAYS HE IS FRIEND TO DRY FARMING sheep will bo brqught hero from other parts of tho country. Preliminary plans are now being made for tho gathering, various committees being already at work. Livestock shipments to the Port land markets for the month of May are far ahead ot tho same statistics for May of last year, showing tho growing Importance of this market. Particularly is a big gain shown In hogs, which Is gratifying to the trade. A total of 515 cars of livestock ot all kinds came to the stockyards during May of this year. The lncrcaso In hogs received was over 7000 head. Tho O. R. & N. has decided to placo In commission a regular stock train service, operating twlco a week from Huntington to Portland and way points. This will begin June 21 and will bo a great convenience to the stock raiser. Douglas county is taking active steps In securing good roads. A coun ty association has been formed at Roseburg to boost the movement In that section of the state and the result of this action will bo valuable. The organization was perfected through tho efforts of tho state association and M. O. Eldridge, tho government road expert. Meetings are now held throughout Oregon in the Interest of better highways and much progress Is being made. That Master Fish Warden McAl lister is planning to bring the supply of stcclhcnds in Roguo river up to its former high standard is shown in n letter recently received from Mr. McAllister in regard to the recont shipment of a half million stcelhend eggs to the Trail hatchery for liber ation in the Roguo. Mr. McAllister says : "Under date of Juuo 7, Henry O'Mnlloy, who is in charge of tho United States bureau of fisheries in this state, writes me that tho ship ment of stcclhond eggs shipped from our Tillamook hatchery reached thoir hatchery at Trail, on Roguo river, in excellent condition; also that same aro being cared for and tho resulting fry will be liberated hi tho wntors of Roguo river some time this fall. I am satisfied that this is a step in the right direction, and with n few more consignments in the future there is no question but what the supply of stcelheads in Roguo river can bo built up to its former high standard."

"Those engaged in aiding and en couraging dry farming in our semi arid areas aro deserving of tho ut most encouragement and commenda tion and should be regarded as pub lic benefactors." Richard A. Ballingor, secretary of the interior, says this in u letter to 'John T. Burns, secretary of the dry farminc congress, which will have its fifth sessions and international 1tt? tftwrnnff nvnADifinn in finilrnna the week of October 3, adding: "When commissioner of the gen eral land office in 1007 I recom mended tho enactment of legislation which would encourage dry farming upon our semi-nrid public lands by permitting their dispositon under tho homestead laws in sufficient area and without the requirement of resi dence and since the enactment of the so-called enlarged homestead act. "I have, ns secretary of the inter ior, designated more than 170,000, 800 acres of land for entry under its provisions. Tho number of home stead applications presented under this law fully justifies the legisla tion in question and promises a larger increase in the area of culti vated lands in tho west and in the production of tho food supplies de manded by tho increasing population of our country." Mr. Bellinger's loiter was prompt ed by the receipt of a copy of tho Dry-Fanning Congress Bulletin of June 1, containing tho official call of tho first annual convention of tho Wyoming State Dry-Fanning associ ation, which will moot at Cboyonno on July 20 and 21.
