Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
STILL talking about Lakevlew.
You'd, be too, If you'd been there.
The Round-up waa a good ahow.
II you didn't ee It, you mined
something.
M
AND don't forget this: It'a a
Southern Oregon ahow put on
b the home folke here In Southern
Oregon, and attended chiefly By
Southern Oregon people. '
We need to atlck by our own, and
brag about our own, down here In the
orphan countlee.
a. wild HORSE catapaulte out ol
A. a chute, topped by an able rider
who alts him nobly. But the odda
are In favor of the horae, and the
rider goea flying, heela over heart.
The horae crashea through a fence
made of two-Inch boards, goea
through another one only a little leaa
strong, cleam a wire fence, and heads
for the desert and freedom.
If horses cBn feel exaltation, there
must have been exaltation Jn the
heart of that wild horse aa he headed
hsck for the desert hills.
M '
iAn.pprwTFRS start repairing the
V hole In the arena fence the
boards being dragged up, In proper
rodeo atvle. at the end of a lariat
Tone.
, They no more than have the top
board In nlaca when another wild
horse, after disposing of ita rider,
crashes the new board, splinters it,
and streaks It for the hills.
They're wild, all right, these horses
Make no mistake as to that.
THE calf roping Is a bit slow, for
the rules forbid "busting" the
calf. "Busting," a probably you
know, consists in roping the calf by
the neck and then sitting back on
the rope. When the calf comes to
the end of It, he turns a few somer
saults and lands with a dull thud
Under the rules, the riders had to
stop the calf more or less gently, then
get off and put on a wrestling match
with him,' taking jthe chance that
the calf might be the better estler.
Thla cramped their atyle, ana
slowed them down a bit. On the
other hand, the calves probably ap
proved the rule.
ITS a great ahow, and all Soutn-
1 era Oregon la proud of It. May It
flourish and grow, getting bigger and
bigger every year, and drawing more
and more people.
A COLORFUL crowd surges through
J the streets of Lakevlew. An
Easterner would see more high-heeled
boots In a minute than he ever saw
before In his life.
But he wouldn't see many hair
panta. These waddlea who put on the
Lakevlew Round-up are real cowmen
and they take off their chapa when
they're through with them, Instead of
parading them through the streets.
HARRT GLAZIER runs a harness
and saddle shop in Lakevlew a
real one; not Just for exhibition pur
poses and to sell souvenirs. So -far
aa Is known. It is the biggest ex
elusive harness and saddle shop In
Oregon.
Asked as to the state of business.
he answers: "Good, and going to get
better. Smart ranchers are discard
Ing their trsctors, which run on gas
and oil that ARE NOT produced on
the farm, and are going back to
horses, which consume hay end grain
thst ARE.
'The time Is not far distent when
tractor farming will be a thing of the
past."
THE automobile has run the horse
off the road and for a while' the
tractor came mighty close to running
the horse out of the fields.
The horae may stay off the roads,
but he la coming back Into the
fields. If you doubt that, get out
Into the big farming country. You'll
see more teama now In a day than
you would have aeen a few yeara ago
In a week.

A wonderful response, for the most

reported today -for the -consumer's
drive of the National Recovery act

afternoon following the meeting at
the Jackson county court house. The
blue eagle of the new deal was

of Commerce at noon. There were
13 cars, commanded by four women
each, canvassing the city and a call
was Issued by the committee for ad

Several persons, who for unvoiced
reasons, are opposed to the National
Recovery act, were also contacted by
the workers and In a few Instances
the women met with very discour

executive committee revealed this
afternoon.
The refusals were few and the peo
ple expressing disapproval of the
program composed a very small mi
nority, but one which will not be Ig

this afternoon. A re-check will be
made In all instances by a special
committee, which will endeavor to
explain thoroughly the purposes of
the drive and the necessity .ior 100
