Lakeview, Oregon, Thursday, February O, 1BIH
SIXTY YKAHS SINCE
Harry Lane has been elected United
States Senator by tbe Legislature in
response to the mandate of the people.
It is a circumstance of no importance,
perhaus, but it certainly is ot special
significance that Oregon now has,
through the Oregon svstem or will
have after Marco 4. 1913 two Demo
eratic United States Senators and a
Democratic Governor. It has been full
sixty years since with tbe exception i curtain has been rung down, it de
of a brief interval, when Oregon was'stroyed Mr. Bailey politically under
really a Democratic state, there was a j like circumstances,
tike institution. It is to be assumed! The Journal has faitn in Mr. Mickle.
that it is the deliberate desirend pur- Me has made a good oeginning by
pose of tbe people of Oregon, though it ignoring the canons of politics. He
is nominally a Kupublican state, it has appointed assistants who opposed
should reserve its greatest honors for! him for election, an unusual but a pro-
its Democratis politicians.
Senator-elect Lane has been promin
ent in Oregon affairs for many years.
He hss been an active and successful
medicineal practitioner and several
times a successful candidate for public
office. He has energy, capacity, cour
age and resourcefulness : ana he will
have an unexpected opportunity to
serve the people of Oregon at Wash
ington. We are sure that be is anxious
to serve toem well aud faithfully: and
we solicit for bim tbe co-operation and
aupport of all interests, political, com
mercial, journalistic and popular, in
whatever he i ay undertake for the
benefit of the state and Nation.
SAME THE FA KM
Every farmer ia this section should
name bis farm. It is a wise and busi
ness like farmer who bas his own name,
bis farm name and its location. Up
to date methods bring tbe best results,
and success comes to bim who adver
tises. A named farm is a credit to the
community. Visitors are told about
it and the spirit and enterprise of its
owner, and tbeyare usually driven over
to see it. This method not only adver
tises tbe community, but it instills
pride and energy into its owner, who
invaribiy become one of the shining
examples of prosperity among his rural
neighbors.
The custom ot naming farms, as any
ther business enterprise or industry,
is not a new one, but is becoming more
in vogue. The trend of events, the
rain', energy and success of the mod
ern farmer who is making by dry
iarming methods a living and money
besides on lands that is regarded as
impracticable of cultivation, all com
bine to demand the distinct designation
of every farm or courty home. Ke
sults attend all forme of advertising,
so aoopt this idea and give publicity to
your own particular interests and to
the country In ge eral.
m ""
Country life has its drawbacks, but
is has'grest advantages'whichjovercome
them. True, those who live in the
country are "Rubes" and "Farmers"
and "layseeds" to some of the city
element, tut the boast of the business
men in the world tnaay is that they
were bcrn on a farm. Take away
the eurroundtrg evils that leset the
young men or women on the threshold
fcf lifes journev in the city, br.d sub
stitute the helcful influences of nature,
r.d you fortify t htm tor the sterner
wslks of life.
The heavy snows that have fallen in
the valley this Winttr look good to
:he farmer. It is said that there is
bi.t little fro:t in the j round and the
m .i-ture from the snow us it steadily
rece 'es is all going into the ground.
While the white mantel i becoming
ijuite i hi n on the south and west sides
ot the hills near town no swelling of
the streams has been noticeKlle which
indicates that all the rnoi-ture has
t ten abfecrhe ly the grounri. Snow
i s stacked ikep in the mountains which
together with the snow in the valleys
certainly assures abundance of mois
ture for this year's crop?,
Tribute Given Mickle
The Portland Journal pays the fol
lowing tribute to John D. Mickle elect
ed Dairy and Food Commissioner for
Oregon. Mr. Mickle is a Lakeview
boy having resided here many jcars
ago, and the article will doubtless
prove of interest to tbsoe who remem
ber of bis younger dayi.
The Journal nays: After 12 years,

REFUSED TO LAUGH..
A Jeka an Himeelf That Mar Twain

When Mark '1'waln was resident
of Hartford, Conn., he once called at
the office or Dr. Swan, a local special

him regarding a trivial ailment

around, angry through, and through.
"What's that, slrf he roared at the
doctor. "What's that you say I"
With a smile that was cloying; in Its
sweetness Dr. Swan pointed to a cage
in the corner where bis parrot was
swinging aud chuckling with blrdlsh
glee, and explained:
"That Is the gentleman who spoke to

did not seem to reduce Mr. Cleuieus'

Modern Homes
What surprises and interests the city
vistior to the Kastern farm these days
is the complete modernity of the
houses in which the farmer and his
family dwell. Not only do thev have
those things, which the city resident
cannot get, but thev are supplied with
all of the comforts and conveniences
with which he is familiar. Few of
those homes that are not now equipped
with complete water and sewerage sys
tems and when he finds with what fac-
! ility they have in most cases been in
' stalled he wonders that they have rot
j alwavs bt en so.
There are not many farms East or
West that do not pnsuss rome rocuna
of g ttlrg sufficient water pressure to
supply their houses were they to en
deavor to do so. In some cases a dam
or natural reservoir Is at hard to inf
pound the water Ht suffiaient elevation
above the houi-e to supply that press
ure: in others a pumping flai t or wind
mill already furnishes the requirement
for the stock. What bn easy matter
to inatall a tew teet of pipe that will
place it in the house ard relieve hand

from the ell and also allow the instal
