THE CASE OF MADISON, N. J.
Improvamtnt of tha Grsen Hill Road a

In rout rust with the showy, super
flclal .typo of 'development contrived
for Immediate property exploitation,
with little regard for permanency, It Is
gratifying to note it good example ef
practical, substantial, unobtrusive pmi

This Vectlon. secluded. Jet near the
center of the town. Is nu attractive
piece of natural woodland on n slop

trees. The preservation of these dig

the nuwt delightful feature In the mak

fully illustrated in the view here pre

other places which may Ih In danger
of carelessly sacrificing one of their
chief assets- the beauty of forest trees.
This tract was opened a few years
ago by putting through a winding road
t cc.io. t with transverse streets
above and below, but lighting, paved
sidewalks, etc., were not at tirst pro
vided. The road as recently improved
Is twenty-four feet from curb to curb,
an ample width for nil purposes. It
plves sufficient room for any ordinary
vehicles to turn in and for a carriage
to stand on each side of the street,
with space between for the passage of
other vehicles This Is an excellent il
lustration of adapting the street to Its
uses. Needless construction and main
tenance costs ;ire saved, and the In
creased depth of the adjacent property
Improves its appearance and adds to
Its value. A concrete curb and gutter
on each side of the street throughout
its entire length of !mki feet take care
of storm water and prevent damage

are of concrete and are four and one
half feet wide. ,
The electric wires for lighting the
street, to which house connections can
be made as needed, are all under-
ground. This insures the protection
of the stnt trees from any disfigure
ment or injury to growth that might '
have leen caused by overhead wiring.
The lighting standards are ornamental
Iron posts, each bearing one large
globe. All water and lighl cornice
tlons and sewer laterals have lieen .
laid In the property, so that as (level i
opiuent progresses there will be no
necessity for digging up the street or
undermining the walks and the plant
lng.
There is a three foot grass strip be i
tween the sidewalk and the curb, j
Here trees have been planted forty j
feet npart. The pin oak was selected j
for this purpose as being in harmony j
with the forest growth on the property. !
The planting of the tre.w was done j
with great thorough nes anu care.
The tree sites were excavated to the
full width of th lrder spa and to
a length of His feet and a depth of
three feet. All poor earth was remov
ed, and tho holes were tilled with good
top soil. With such a preparation there
Is bound to be a vigorous, healthy
growth within a comparatively short
time.
On one (dde of the new street there
is an interesting Instance of saving a
large tree even when It interferes in
some degree with the development A
red oak of magnificent proportions
came within the sidewalk lines at a
point where the grading had involved
a cut of about three feet. The tree
was saved by slightly narrowing the
sidewalk and turning It out to the
edge of the curb and then carefully
building up a mound of soil and sod
uro .ind the roots
This is conservation that pays, not
only commercially in Increasing prop

EXTENSION BILL
WOULD BENEFIT
That Senate hill No. 72 is the most
Important piece of legislation from
an agricultural standpoint that has
been brought before the present ivr
Islaturc, and that its enaction Is a
matter ot urgent necessity la the
opinion of William Hanley, president
of the Oregon Irrigation Congress,
vice president of the Oregon Develop
ment League and president of the Cen
tral Oregon Development League who
arrived In l'oitland from Hums last
week.
The hill is designated to take the
benefits of the State Agricultural Col
lege to the farmers on their own farms.
Km-li larmer may set aside live acres
of ground, which he agrees to farm ac
cording to instructions furnished him
by the Agricultural College. The soil
is analyzed by the college experts, and
seed is furnished by the state. The
stale is to buy an equal amount of seed
from the crop.
Throughout the farmer is to follow
the course prescrilml by tho Agricul
tural College, and the state is to pay
him t lie excess ot cot of farming
over the ordinary method. Trice are
only a few of what Mr. Ilarlcy. con
siders the bill's excellent feituers.
"Oregon has no right to ask pocple
to come out and settle and try to tmke
homes and livelihood on the soils."
said Mr. Hanley in l'ortlaid. unless
she shows them In w to do something
with thou- soils. Nor have e anv
right to ask the railroads to build line
through Oregon unlovi we lei.rn Nov to
farm our ow n Isnd.
"The (dan proposed by Senate bill
72 has I cen fried cut in Canada. It
is taken from Cani!a"s successful ex
perience, and Canada is the country
that is taking- the greatest .strides in
agr cnltural deveolpmen.t right now.
Our neighbor to the north is taking
our people l ecauve they are hhowirg
them how to make a living on the Isnd.
"If this bill bcci.mcs u lw it will
take scientific farmirg to the farmer
in his own farm, and teach his wife
i domestic sricr.ee in her ow n home.
I here has been a good deal or talk
about home building, but thei can
be no home building without an Income
in the meanwhile.
"We have had the State Agricultur
al College for a hmg time, and its
time that we put its equipment to thej
best use possible, which I bel'evc will
be realized under the provisions of such
a Ihw as tliis bill proposes."

The yard Is ;ieocssary. for In It th"

it should be for their sole use. Do not

too, one must see that there are no

"SUCSTS BORN

Another case of the buying public
getting swindled out of their money
In huyiiiK from tramp salesmen la
shown In the following from the
turss I'lsindealer.
One need not go beyond the routines
of Modoc County ' to demonstrate tho
truth of Hie old aavlmr, that " sucker
la born every minute." Year after

their success H phenomlnal. It mat
ter" lillle what the bait may ho, tho
sucker appears to bite like a catfish at
any and all kinds. Let one of these
gentry visit our county with n steel
range, cheap buggy, washing machine,
or indeed, any old thing our people
will pay twice as much as they would
have to pay the local denier far a bet
ter article.
A esse In point is called to mind by
the jailing of tho fellow Vaughn who
was here last I'sll representing an
enlarging picture ronctrn. He did
slashing business, both In the picture
line and In lighting buixe. Our cltlt

I ing a local dealer, a man established in

as is done any where, they "five their

add another to the long list of suckers.
Mr. Keisun, our local photographer,

NEW STAGE ROUTE
Heral Bulletin: F. I.. Young of

I e ls. stopie:l at Hotel Bend Sunday
and Monday, and while here met witn
the directors of the ('oinmrciHl Club,
discussing with them plans for the
establishment of a new muilmute south
ward. The propose I route would go from
Bend to Lakeview via Imperial. Hamil
ton, IJolyat, Lost Creek, Honili of Class
Uutte, Ilutfe and Valley Kails, taking
in Harneston, a postollne MiMt is being
established at Alkali Lake. It would
serve post ollices at all the places
named. The present route to Lakeview
is by wy of La I'ire, i.rcsrent ami
Silver l!ako. It is not proposed to
alter this, but simnly to cttahlich the
new route to serve the new postoflices,
some ot which are now cared for 011
stub routes with a weekly service from
1'rinevillc, the settlers getting theii
mall often two weeks late
Alkali Luke is about l'i miles from
Bend. Already conkiderable develop,
ment of the vbsI deposits there of car
bonate of soda has been made, and,
Mr. Young, says a reduction works
will be installed this summer and large
quantities of the soda brought to the
railroad here for shipment. The soda
in its raw stage la worth about $32 a
ton in San Francisco, and even with
the expense of tho long wagon haul it
is found profitable to ship it. The soda
fields are owned by Spreckles, Desablu
& Ilarnchon of San Francisco.
