By M. E. Barker
Long Beach, Calif., June 20.
tiPt Over a modern "Oregon
Trail." the main body of a group
of colonists leaves today for the
f north to wrest homes from Vir
gin land.
Twenty-five or thirty families
will depart for a 680-acre tract
near Grants Pass, Ore., where
several families already have
preceded them, R. J. Wilson
president of the Pioneers' club
said today.
In their automobiles they will
carry bedding and cooking uten
sils. Their household effects will
be taken later in five trucks the
colony is operating between here
and its new settlement.
12$ Families Included
Unlike the wagon trains that
operated over the historic Ore
gon trail across prairies and
mountains a century ago, the
new colonists will not travel as
a party.
"Each car will have to fight
its own traffic," said Wilson
"We can't take them through
the cities as a caravan."
By the middle of July. 125
' families in all will have left for
T the Oregon settlement, where
log cabins already are being
built and crops planted by the
advance parties. A sawmill four
miles away is to be moved to
the site to provide lumber for
houses. Wilson said.
In addition to the 680 acres
purchased as the site for the co
operative colony, 340 acres of
timber land have been bought.
Wilson said thousands of acres
more have been offered, but the
colonists will make sure of its
value before buying any of it.
Fire Acres Each
The timbering, he explained,
is only to provide a "grub stake.
As soon as the main tract is
under cultivation, each head of
a family will be given five acres
of farming land and a house,
in return for the $25 paid into
the colony treasury for its purchase.
Many of the colonists, Wilson
said, are experienced farmers
But they also include engineers
and artisans of various crafts
who will be able to establish
and operate the projected com
munity.
Just about the same sort of
cross section of society, it was
suggested, as plodded along be
side the lumbering ox teams
from Missouri to Oregon a hun
dred years ago.

The suit of Everett Gillespie
against Archie Laing-and Wil
liam Oatman. has been tenia
tively set on the circuit court

Tour of Three of Better
Fields Slated Friday Ti
Start At Bohncrt's.
There Is a strong possibility
of extending the acreage sown
for sugar beet seed this year.
according to the county agent's
office. On a limited acreage
this has proven a very profit
able and desirable crop for the
valley and any farmer with suit
able land has an opportunity
to plant acreage this year.
In order to create more inter
est in this crop, a tour of three
of the better fields will be held
Friday afternoon, June 28, as
follows: At 1:30 the tour will
start at Otto Bohnerfs, Central
Point: from there Harry Dunn's
field in the same neighborhood,
will be visited and then to Ray
Yost's In the Westside district
where fertilizer trials have been
tried by Prof. F. C. Reimer of
the Southern Oregon Experi
ment Station.
The tour will be In charge of
R. G. Fowler, county agent, and
Prof. Reimer. George Scott of
the West Coast sugar beet seed
committee will be present to
discuss methods and the man
agement of this crop. All par
ties interested who have land
under irrigation that would be
suitable for growing truck
crops are invited to attend this
tour.
