Our line comprises the famous "Star Brand" Work

All "Star Brand" Shoes are "solid leather" from

most for his money.

BOND ASKED FOR
STATEHIGHWAYS
Permanent Road It Asked
from Lakeview to
Astoria
A movement was started In Medford
Wednesday to bond the state of Oreg
on for $100,000,000 fo thw construction
of two main permanent highways, says
the Klamath Herald.
According to this bill, one highway
will be constructed from Portland
south through Eugene, Roseburg. and
Medford to the California state line.
The other road will be constructed
from Lakeview north through Bend and
the Deschutes Va'lev to Astoria. It is
planned to appropriate $7,000,000 for the
Portland- Medford road and $3000,000 for
the Eastern Oregon road. The former
will be a hard surface bltulithic, witb
a concrete base, and it is expected
it will cost $15,000 a mile for construct
ion, while grading will vary rforo $15.
a mile in the mountainous country
to a few hundred dollars on the level
stretches.
This tentative plan was deoied upon
after a two days' conference between
members of the local good reads move
ment Hnd Major Bowlbv. A delegation
of Medford citizens will journey to
Salem to present tne bill to the bouse
and senate.
The enthusiasts were at first inclined
to object the Eastern Oregon highway,
but Junior Bowlbv very quickly showed
them that unless some such concession
was made to this poithn of Oregon
there would be no appriopriation from
the state for good roads at all.

Other tills acted upon snd passed by
the Serate at the closing hours of the
week's session were:
Fixing an eight hour day for work
men on all public contracts.
The dependent widowa' pension bill.
Provision is made in this bill that all
widows or women whose husbands are
confined in the state penitentiary or
any state institution shall be entitled
to a pension from the county, providing
they are mothers of children under 16
years of age and are without means of
support. The bill entitles them to S1U
a month from the county in the event
she has one child under 16 years, and
$7.50 a month for every other such
child.
The Senate voted to place the
question of creating the office of lieu
tenant governor on the ballot again in
1914.
The Miller textbook bill. This pro
vides that one third of the textbooks
of the schools shall be changed every
two years, this third to make up the
textbooks for that division for the fol
lowing six years. Thus under the bill
no textbooks will be changed oftener
than six years, but a portion of them
will be changed every twoesrs.
By unanimous vote the Senate passed
the Malarkey minimum wage bill. The
purpose of Ibis bill is to protect those
who of all classes are weak, the women
and children workers. It will directly

WOOL TARIFF FAVORED
Continued. Iroin tlrnt pag
sheep Industry furnishes 800,000,000
pounds of mutton to the people every
year, and this Is the cheapest meat
supply on the market today. Without
the wool profit the mutton industry
must be abandoned.
That the consumer would profit to any
extent if wool were placed on the free
list is ridiculed by the brief. The
cott of an Army suit, made of the finer
grades of wool, is used to Illustrate
this statement. In this suit the grow
er snd manufacturer recleve about $5.
64 for the 3 3-4 yards of clotb It re
quires: the grower's share is 11.72. It
is contended thst on an average suit
coating the consumer $25 to $30 the
remission of tariff on the wool for
which the grower now receives $1.72
would make no difference in the price
of the suit to the last purchaser.
The brief demands a specflc duty of
not less than 18 cents based on the
scoured content, as the only "competi
tive tariff" tne woolgrowers of the
United States can do business, and it
appeals to the majority of the Mouse
ways and means committee to remem
ber that portion of the Baltimore plat
form which declared that "no legiti
mate Industry will be injured."
Sherlock Feeding: Sheep
Alturas New Era: A visit to the
fend yards of Walter Sherlock is indeed
intereting. To see 5,000 head of
half breed Lincoln ewes, in one band,
fat and fine, at one place and 2,000
head of thoroughbred Lincoln ewes,
and 10(H) head of thoroughbred Lincoln
bucks at another is quite a sight.
Mr. Sherlock is now feeding these
sheeo about seven four horse loads of
hay per day, which, believe us, is some
hay, and no wonder he would like to
see the snow go off. Me looks for a
very prosperous year for the sheep
man the coming season, notwithstand
ing the change in administration. If
the prices of mutton ami wool keep
where they are, the sheep business
cannot help being a lucrative one.
Road Grant Sold
A message, under date of Feb. H,
from Klamath Falls to the Oregonian
says: A deal which has been pending
two years was closed hen the dcedtt
to the lands held by the Oregon Mili
tary Lar.d llrant Company were tiled
here by the Oregon Land Corporation.
This land was originally granted for
the construction of the military wagon
road across the Cascade Mountains to
Lakeview in Lake County. The grant
lies north of the Klamath Indian reser
vation, that within the reservation hav
ing been exchanged for lar.ds outside.
There are about 50,000 acres in Klam
ath County and the deeds call for a
consideration of atiout $- per acre.
Much of the land is sai l to be tine
timber, some is good pasture and some
good for agriculture. What their
plans are for handling the lands are not
made public.
Night School Success
The night K hool is proving a real
success and the number is beyond ex
pectations. There are now 1!" young men and
yoi-rg wuir.cn who mean business.
The class meets Monday and Thurs
ilny i.iK'hta at seven o'clock md work
for two hours. At the rate the cla.ss
starts out, the best of results will fol
low and the work will be a real pleasure
and profit to all who attend.

32 to 25 refused to submit the
amendment and it will not, therefore,
go to the people through the medium

here that it will, however be voted
on by means of the initiative.

an equal number of delegates in each

ART EXHIBITS AT '

OF BENEFIT TO FARMERS
AND BUILDERS
A Now Idoa for Disposing
of Sewage
The Bradley Engineering Company
of Fairport, California, has just com
pleted designs fur a Septic tank that
can be installed for the use of hoteU or
privute dwellings where there Is no
city system for taking care of the
sewage. The septic tank for the dis
posal of sewage is not a new idea. It
has teen tried and found successful by
a number of our larger cities, but the
method of its construction and the
low coat ot installation by this method
are an innovation whose tieneflts will
t:e readily recognised by those who
foul that thrv riiiiniit ITiiril therxncnsel
attached to our present construction
plans.
This company hat Invented and pro
poses to furnish for the use of the
builder a set of adjustable forms fur
concrete tank nt a nominal cost.
These forms will be msde and adjusted
to the sire of the tank required: with
them will he furnished a full set of
plans and specifications and ill recti jii
for setting the forms and for the mix
ture and watetproofing of Ihe concrete
so that any layman can readily proceed
to superintend and carry out the con
struction of his own tanks without fur
ther aid.
Upon completion of the work tin:
forms are to be returned to the com
pany, t he charges lor tne u-e oi tne (
forms including the pluns and estimates ,
are less than the cost of the forms ill-
one under the old sytein where it wasj
necessary to employ a carpenter.
Thisplun is admirably adxpted to the
use of those who possess dwelling1 or ,
farms where water is available for j
use in Ihe house but no drainage can
be had for the sewers. The i llluent i
from the tanVs can be used for irriga- J
tion or for watering chickens, hogs
or larger slock ir mere is a uemanu
for it. The water issuing from it is j
clear and ordorb'ss and free from the I
filth which emenatrs from cesa pools
or opfn pits, and so readily forms a
breeding place for flies and other
disease bearing germs and insects.
Tne plan is small and can be built
in the cellar or in the ground at any
point below the house.
Estimates will be furnished free to
anyone wishing to know the cost of a
system, if they will write thia company
stating their requirements. F 13 1
