BIG DIPPING VAT
AT WHITE HOUSE
Efforts Doing Made to
Quickly Eradicate
Cattle scab
Every effort is now being made to
efface the cattle scab in the Infected
districts of this county. At thia time
of year the effects of the scab in cattle
ia not cam iv diBcernable to the ordin
ary individual, t ut it ia in the Spring
that its ravavea ran be noticed, and
more eseolallv when the cattle are in
poor condition. I'reparutiona have
been madu to dip all the cattle in the
infected diatricta. including milch cows
and calves aa well as the range cattle
To that end a large dipping; plant has
been built at the White .House on the
ZX ranch in the Chewaucan. It is CHti
mated that about 15.000 head will be
dipped this month, from COO to 800
head being the daily average.
Corralls. ahutes. etc. have been ar
ranged ao that the cattle can be
handled most expeditiously and there
ia a continuous line of cattle passing
through the vat. The vat is about 80
feet long and 8 feet deep and divided
into pena bv means of swinging gates.
The cattle are kept in the solution fur
two minutes, and it ia Decennary to
keeu them separated in the vat in order
that they will not drown each other.
Men are provided with long hooks and
are stationed along the vat so that in
case of accident they can catch a
"critter" by a born or under the neck
and thus prevent thoir drowning.
Occasionally two will get Into the vat
together resulting In the drowning of
one on Infrcuuent occasions.
The solution is kept hot by steam
heat supplied by a traction engine,
steam pipes being placed in the vat.
Vats for preparing the mixture with
furnaces underneath are close at hand,
and men are constantly ut work keen
ing thinga moving.
The work is well worth seeing, and
the trio can easily be made in three
hours by wav of Valley Falls. So long
as the roads are dry the trip would
be ideal, but a light rain would put J
them on the "bum" aa there la more
or leaa alkali to be nnaand over be
tween) the Ilotchklaa Place and the
White Houae.
New Townslte
The new townalte on the V. U Knell

it will aome day te a trading noint to

along that tart of the valley where

vicinity, including a wagon belonging
to Andy Hotchkisa of Valley Falls,

fire is unknown, though a smouldering
spark is supposed to have been the
cause when it was fanned into a flame
by the gentle night breeze. There waa

is no doubt that anv person intending,
to huilu can secure what thev want
there without anv t'ouule. eaoeciallv
in the line of seasoned lumber. The
plant is ruKheo in anticipation of the
heavy demands that are being made
on it on account of the New Pine

Electric Farm Plant
The Summer Lake correspondent of
the Silver Lake Leader writes ss
follows :
Electricity from barn to basement is
what C. C. Harris has just installed
on his un-to-date farm at Summer Lake.
Mr. Harris generates the power bv
water on his own place. Last Sunday
electricians were busy all dav stringing
the wires, testing the machinery and
arranging other details in'readiness for
turning on "the juice." The Harris
family have juBt moved into their new
dwelling, which is one of the best in

Other farmers in Summer Lake valley
contemplate following the example of
Mr. Harris.
Buccaroos Do Eat
Sam Cogburn was down from the
ZX this week after supplies and the
way that he took things back with him
would make a casual observer think
that tho buncn of fellows out there
were able to get enough to eat at anv
rate. The wav fthat Sam piled up a
wagon load of choice apples of every
variety for which the Goose Lake
Valley is famous would suggest that
at any rate. There were three wagons
in the string and the driver stuted thnt

court. L. F. Conn for the defense is
making a hard fight, and the trial ia

'I he court room is daily thronged
with a large number of men. women
and voong folks, all of whom closely
watch the procedinga.
Neighbors Worth While
Thia is not a bad old World after all,
ia it? When men and women make
some little effort to lighten the burden
of their neighbors thev feel better and
trie outsider looks on and is glad that
they are glad because some one else
haa been made glad. It was this sort
01 real unselfishness that actuated those
We8t si,le residents that went out to
j Mr- Mo,lie Bolton's place where her
j home waa destroyed bv fire last week
nd when the ,lUrun of eood fellows
, 'r nome lht "Ight. thev had built
1 new home for the ladv that brought
er of jv and much thankfulness
from her heart. She thinks more of
j that little home that has been erected
through thoughtfulness than though it
was a stone mansion on Caoitol Hill in
Denver, and there is no doubt that
everv one that helped in the good work
is a lot better for having done ao. Pass
the good work along.
NORTHERN LAKE
PROBABLY "WET"
Reports Indicate that Dry
Precincts Are Dry
No More
j Ke ports that
, te,echone from
'
have come over the
Paisley and Summer
Lake show that the "Wets" have
carried those precincts bv about sixty-
two votes. The Silver Lake. Fort
Kock. and Lake precincts are yet to be
heard from but there seems to be no
doubt but that Northern
Lake countv
will go "Wet" this time and .remain
that wav for some rime, as people are
tired of the "Near beer joints" that
have been so troublesome without anv
recompense to the people or countv.
Salt Creek Potatoes
The Salt Creek iseetion promises to
become famous for its fine potatoes,
and if other Sections of Goose Lake
Valley are to keep in line thev will
have to go some. This week L. C.
Emerson ol that section brought to the
Examiner office some of the finest
potatoes it would seem possible to
grow. While perhaps thev are un
usually large yet at the same time they
have no deep eyes or warty protuber
ances, are perfectly solid and freefrorn
blemUhes of anv sort. Undoubtedly
thev would command fancy prices in
anv maraket.
as a sort of side issue Mr. Emerson
also broght in a 91 pound turnip not
a rutabaga but just a plain ordinary
turnip. It is a fair sample of what
mav be expected in the wav of results
in root crops when pronerlv planted
and cultivated here in Goose Lake Val

"The Last West"
Silver Lake Leader: Everv stage
and everv automobile licensed to carry
passengers that reaches Silver Lake
from the end of the Oregon Trunk road
brings its quota of new settlers wbo
are hurrying to rile on a piece of
government land before it is too late.
Central Oregon has never seen, and
after next summer will never see.
another such rush, for by that time
the land will be virtually all gone.
In addition to those arriving by auto
nd stage, there's procession of cov
ered wagons from Silver Lake to the
Columbia river. These wseons are
reminders of the old prairie schooner
days when the motto was "Kansas or
bust "
HANDSOME HOME
EOR THEWHORTONS
Modern Dwelling a Credit
to Residence District
of Lakeview
The new home of George B. Whorton
on Water street is about completed and
shows to much advantage both as
regards the interior and exterior. In
everv particular from cellar to garret
the appointments are such as reflect
credit not only for the rare taste of
Mr. and Mrs. Whorton. but on the
workmanship and skill of the con
tractors emoloved. The carpenter work
was done bv N. T. krev. while Sam
Bailey handled the plastering in such
a manne- that there is co doybt of its
being as good as there is to be found
anvwhere. Wm. Barregy. the artistic
decorator, did the finishing work in
manner that does him credit The
rooms down stairs are finished in natural
wood and consist of living room, din
ing room, two bedroms. kitchen and
fine bath room. The doors of the three
larger rooms are so arranged that thev
slide out of sight and allow the three
to be made into one in case that George
has more than the ordinary number of
guests. The Tunper story is divided
into three rooms that are finished and
each is roomy, light and well ventilat
ed. The foundation of the building is
of Malapi stone which is brought from
just below town and is of the same
quality and coloring as that used on the
new high school. The fine lawn that
will be completed soon is to be in keep
ing with the other appointments that
go to make this comfortable home one
of the most desirable residences in the
thriving town of Lakeview.
ELIMINATE LANDS

More Lands in Private
Ownership "Restored"
To Settlement
Another restoration to entry of land
from the Crater National Forest will
become effective February 14 next.
Practically all of the lands are already
in private ownership, and the restora
tion ia of no special significance. The
lands lie along the east boundary line
ot the forest and are meadow and
swamp lands. A list of the lands to
be restored follows :

NEW PINE CREEK
STATIONLOCATED
Will Be On Lake Shore
250 Feet South or
State Line
The New Pine Creek station on tbe
N.-C.-O. has been located on the Hert
ford lands along the lake shore. The
railroad grade borders the lake, and
the station will be located 250 feet
south of the State line.
Plans are being perfected for platt
ing a townsite at the station, and it ia
possible that there will be a "new"
and an "old" town, as tbe present
town of Pine Creek ia about one and a
quarter miles distant from the railroad
station. It is quite possible that in
the near future the Hervford holdings
will be cut up into small tracts and
placed upon tbe market, and with that
end in view a road is being planned
that will practically parallel the rail
road grade for a distance ot several
miles, connecting with tbe present
wsgon roHd at points north and south
of New Pine Creek
Well-Driller in Demand
George Ede. the well driller, had the

Warner Vallev people are asking that

but on account of the number of people
that are asking him to put down welia
