SHERIFF BELIEVES
PAIR OUT OF AREA
Leo M. Schroeder and Leo T. Hicks,
who escaped from the county Jail,
a week ago, while under state prison
sentences, have left this section, ac
cording to Sheriff Syd I. Brown.
Schroeder is under a three years sen
tence for obtaining money under false
pretences, and Hlcka faces a two end
one-half year sentence for larceny of
a saddle belonging to E. W. Kubll
of the Applegate.
- The sheriff believes Hicks will be
harder to catch than Schroeder. whose
penchant for forgery had landed him
In Jail half a dozen times before his
Jackson county violations. The offi
cial believes Hicks will make his way
to some Isolated eastern Oregon sheep
or woodcutters camp, and "hole up"
until winter. "Schroeder will cash
spurious check, any day now and be
apprehended," the sheriff believes.
The pair escaped by making their
way to the county Jail roof, and gain
ing the jail stairs by crawling through
an air vent.

PROTECT PLAINS
WASHINGTON. (UP) More than
100.000,000 trees planted In the great
plains shelterbelt are affording effec
tive protection against winds, accord
ing to the U. S. forest service.
The shelterbelt. at which many per
sona scoffed. Is a "complete success,"
Earl W. Tinker, assistant chief of the
forest service said. Tinker made a
tour of the mldwestern area to in
spect growth of the trees.
The shelterbelt extends from Texas
almost to the Canadian border. It
ranges from a few hundred yards to
several miles wide. In plscea there
are several stripe of "belta." Prom
700 to 1,000 trees were planted per
acre.
The forest service has planted ap
proximately 35.000.000 of these trees.
About 30,000,000 were distributed to
farmers for woodland and shelter
land planting. Not all of the plant
ing has been done In the great plains.
CCO enrollees have planted other
millions in many states.
Federal and state nurseries have
produced an additional 150,000.000
trees for planting. The forest service
has distributed more than 50.000.000
trees for private plantings during the
past two yeara.
Tinker said a check of trees plant
ed In the western shelterbelt showed
81 per cent had survived under ad
verse drouth conditions. Their ef
fectiveness will Increase as they grow,
he said.
"Many thousands of young trees
planted during the 1035 season are
now 6 feet high and' already irre-j
bringing about a lessening olwtnd
movement within their proteUe
range," Tinker said.
"Heights up to 16 feet have been
noted In some Instances," he said. '1
saw fields of cantaloupes and water
melons growing In what were formerly
dust fields, protected by rows of new
ly planted treees."
Tinker said more than 1,281 miles
of shelterbelt strips and 0,415 acres
of farmsteads have been planted.
More than 4,500 farmers participated
tn tree plantings.
Trees found to have made the beat
growth were the green ash. cotton-
wood. Chinese elm, red cedar,and
Ponderosa pine. The forest service
said farmers who had seeded their
land In trees valued It at an average
of 81,046 per farm.
"Experience gained thus far In
shelterbelt and windbreak planting
demonstrates the value of this type
of work in the great plains region
where an urgent necessity exists for
an extensive tree planting program,"
the forest service said.
