HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THUfcdDAY, JUNE 22, 1905 HARRIMAN TO HELP OREGON That E. II. Harriniaii, who in now able to turn bis attention to Oregon since the closing of the Northern Se curities oases and the settlement of the question of connections in the Snake River country with James J. Hill, is about to build more lines in this state, is the opinion held by members of the transportation com mittee of the Chamber of Commerce, who have been apprized unofficially recently that Mr. Hiirrlnmii intends to provide facilities which the Chamber of Commerce baa long striven to se cure. The extension of the Columbia Southern 1b said to be the aim of Mr. Harriman now. On the occasion of bis last visit to Portland the Chamber of Commerce representatives asked him point blank to build beyond Shan iko, says the Evening Telegram, and, while no definite reply was given at that time, the encouragement offered throught the railroad magnate's atti tude led to correspondence on the subject, with the result that a direct reply is looked for in the near future. Meanwhile news has been carried from the Kast that Mr. Harriman has about concluded to respond to the ear nest petitions of the residents of Ore gon for means whereby the interior of the state will be developed. While the fact has been generally known that the engineers and survey ors in the employ of the Uould inter exta have been in Oregon for some weeks and were looking about with a view to choosing a route for the new Western Pacifin, it is thought that the strenuous efforts of the Chamber of Commerce to bring about the desired end has had more to do with the deci sion of Mr. Harriman to build than the fear of competition from the West ern Pacific, inasmuch as be is already on the ground with two trunk lines and would be in a position to con trol the bulk of the business. Prme ville and llend have long desired rail connections with the main line, and it may mean this new activity of Mr. Harriman will end in these routes be ing covered. Another factor in evi deuce which unquestionably actuated the plans for construction there Is the promotion of au eleotrio Hue from The Dulles to Prineville. Makes Fortune In Oregon Lumber. Pendleton Kast Oregonian. William Eccles, president of the Hood River Lumber company, 'vice president of the Humpter Valley rail way and stockholder in several other Oregon properties, passed down the O. It. & N. yesterday evening from Ogden to Hood River, here he goes to spend the summer in the beautiful Hood River district, lie was acooin pauied by his family, wbloh lives in Ogden during the winter season. I he career of William Eccles In eastern Oregon iuspirea poor boys to persevere and work faithfully at their chosen calling whatever it may be. so long as it Is legitimate and profitable, Eccles came to Union county a poor man in 1HMH, bought an old sawmill plant on Catherine creek and began grinding out lumber, going in debt for bis supplies and borrowing money to pay off his employes, at first. He continued at It until now be is worth any where from 2),0UO to :tOO,(XX) and is making more money easily and rapidly. He is now building a 17-mile rail road from Hood River toward Mount Hood to reach a timber belt and to tap the rich Hood River valley, and owns an elegant home in Ogden and one in Hood River, and la a large stockholder in the Oregon .Lumber company at linker City. Mr. Eccles sawed the first Lumber ever shipped to the Mormon colony into Bouora, Mexico, in 1HH!). from Tulocaset, Or., and established lum ber shipping points at Telooaset, Pleas ant Valley, Union and North Powder in eastern Oregon. He is one of the leading sawmill men of the state and has made a success of his business by close application and hard work. Hay Much Cheaper Thin Year. J. O. Cameron of Dukes Valley, who was in the city Thursday, accompan ied by bis sou Jack, is harvesting a tine crop of timothy and clover hay. Mr. Cameron says he will have about M tons of hay this summer. Railed clover and timothy is now worth 1 13 a ton. This time last year he says be could sell just such hay for $17 a ton, and some even went at 120. Mr. Cameron expects hay to gut even cheaper than this before the end of the season. As more bay is produced In the valley, Mr. Cameron expects to see it get cheaper, which will induce the establishment of a creamery here when there is a sufficient number of cows in the valley to justify such an industry here. Others, too, believe it will not be long before some one cau be induced to see that there would be money for a creamery in Hood River. ('nines Here From Kansas. W. W. Ross and family are recent arrivals from Kansas. They have rented the Kami cottage opposite the Park-street school house. Mr. Ross is looking for a small farm whore he cau raise chickens aud keep a half dozen cows. He thinks later of tak ing up a homestead. Hood River people are complaining about the wind blowing bard the past week, but Mr. Ross says this is a very mild wind for one from Kansas. Hut a few days before he left that state, a storm came up which played havoc with frame buildings and store win dows about liis town. Rain came down in such quantities that one could not see 15 feet before hi in. Cy clones are too much for Mr. Hoi's and he expects to remain in Hood River. He is a brother of W. J. Ross.

At the farmers' institute, held at Mil waukie, Oregon, June 2, under the aus pices of the Milwaukie Grange, Dr. James Withycombe, director of the Or egon Experiment Station, spoke on the above subject, substantially as follows: "There is no agricultural section in the world more favored by natural en dowment for intensive agriculture than is our own fair state; also, there is not a section of our state better situated for intensive husbandry than here. Your farms are located at the threshold of the metropolis of the Northwest. There is no reason why the farmers of this section should nut be prosperous. Nor is there any reason why agriculture should not be a profitable and pleasurable vocation. Surely by poten tially of our soil and climate, when properly understood, will curpuss tie expectations of the most sanguine. "As an example of what can lie done in the line of producing green feed for dairy cows, results obtained at the ex periment station this spring will be given. "We began cutting on April 3,an acre of rye and vetch, sown October 18, 1004; finished cutting on April 18; yield per acre of green feed, 12,325 pounds. Began cutting second crop on May 23; finished May 30; yield 11,105 pounds Thus this acre sf vetch and rye has yielded this spring 11.75 tons of green feed and there is a good proepect of a third crop. Regan cutting two-acre field of alfalfa April 19. and finished cutting May 23; yield of two acres 20 tons and eight pounds of green feed. Thus three acres have produced 31.70 tons of green feud already this sprint: and with a good prospect ol cutting two or three more crops of alfalfa this sea son : or, in other words, three acres ol land have furnished the principal feed for fifteen bead of grown cattle and four ix-mofiths-old calves from April 3 to May 30. "This is what is known as the noiling system and plainly illustrates the posi bility of small farms when intelligently utilized. These crops are produced under ordinary farm conditions and without any artificial fertilizers. . Cheer Sparrow's First Flight. Portland Telegram. "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin," and this was never better Illustrated than yesterday when busy people were baited on a promi nent street corner to watch a mother sparrow teaching her young fledgling how to make bis first night. She en couraged the little bird to hop over the edge of a ledge some distance above the street, but his untried wings would not sustain him in the ether and be fell struggling to the top of an awning some feet below. There he struggled to rise into the air and the mother bird encouraged him to do bis utmost ,to sail back up to the ledge, hut be seemed unable to do so. Then it was that a crowd collected aud the sympathies of the nondesrclpt audience were all with the mother. Finally the little bird fell to the at eet but was caught by a friendly onlooker before he fell to the pavement. The mother followed ber young to the road and settled within a foot of the man holding the fledgling, uttering all the time cries of alarm. Finally she sailed back on the ledge sounding notes of enoouragemeiit to the little bird to come back to the starting pinnt. It was a question with the crowd below how to get the bird back to the ledge and suggestions were freely offered. Finally the man helping it gave it a toss up toward the ledge, where the lw, v..t...l .... .1 tlw. 11. .1.1 .... IUU.III.1 .

Might Is Ruining the Pears. Horace W. Day of the firm of Day A Sgobel, reached New York the first week in June after an extended trip to llie coast. Air. imv succeeded in in us up a good dual of business for his firm. Concerning conditions in California Mr. Day Is quoted as follows: Unless some means are found which will check the bludit which is attacking the liartlutt pears in California the en tire crop in a few years will be ruined. The State Agricultural Department has been extieriiiientinir viuorouslv of ate to find something w hich will not neces- date the cutting down of the orchards which are affected bvl the bliitht. As yet no remedy lias been discovered. hole orchards are ellucted. The blight first shows itself by shriveling the leaves of a branch and then extend ing through a tree. The only wav to chuck the spreading is to burn the af fected branchd. Means must lie found to check the spread of the hliiiht or the output of the State will lie cut down. 'The early peach crop of the State will be small this year, while that of the other varieties will lie very good. rrunesare a medium crop, while the pears will be a little over one-third of an avnrago yield. Cherries were hurt tiy rains and this caused the very small crop. 1 found that the crops of the Sil ver, ilungurian and Italian prunes In Idaho, Oregon and Washington will tie about a third of the average yield. The peach crop of Colorado w ill not lie a fifth of an average, but the apples there win lie tine. Exr union Rates To The Fair. The general passenger dciuirtmcnt of the O. H. & N.
