S. liooloKietil survey, I wish to make a puolie siido nu nt. to the people of l ake County, roneernipd tin pres-nt operations of the purvey in this locality. I represent the water rtvo.rccs branch of the U. S. lleeloj-ioal Survey. This branch of the tervlce nus two functions in the rervice if the public. 1. F.vo'iiHtinK the run otT In the stream courses unit publishing the re mits uf the s:inie fur public distribu tion. V.. The exniination of the Land Classification Hoard. This Hoard thro withdraws from pub lie entry such part of the public do main as miy be deemed more valuable for public th:in private use, such as reservoir sites, and water power site, thought to bo best suited for public development. The purl of the public domain nut withdrawn Is linn designa ted as coming under one of the classes outlined by our land lawa mid thrown open to public entry. 'Hir operations i.i I.aac e.iunty are at present confined to the first named function, that is, in investigating nnd evolui.liig the run oil in the streams courses. In any Irrigation project the water supply of the streams involved must be ascertained, first to promote sound engineering in the construction of the proiect ard atttrward to bring cut eq uitable distribution of the water ainoiig the nitrons to the proiect in Luke county it i- especially true tnat the arid tillable tracts susceptible of irrigation are far more extensive than the water resources of the county will supply. fVr this reason our lands classification board has already desig nated large portions of the county un der the enlarged homestead net, as being arid tillable and non-irrigable. Owing to this limited water supply it is especially deservable that the desert land board and water board have ac cess to very reliable information re garding the water resources so that thev mav administer the state water code economically, thit 'he water re sources be put to their best use and the highest development made possible along the irrigation line. To accom plish this the fctate ot Oregon and the irrigation companies operating in Lake county have co-operated with the Geo logical survey in providing funds nec esary to gather the information con cerning the water supply. We hope and believe that our efforts will remit in the highest development possible of the natural resoutcei c.f the county. Howard Kimble, Asst. Eng. U.S.G.S. 4 ! J DOOMING BETTER ROAD?. ! Good reads are no'ess't nd will ry dividends on t?e money invested in trieir con struction. Uood rends clubs are being erutmtod in evnry hamlxt, vil Ijcio, county and city In trie land. Stir up road discussion, for as long as the road question is lot alone there will be no chsn-.e of progress. A public disoussion throughout any community is bound to bnnn some improvement. The ro.id question Is more Im portant than the tariff and other popular subjects of political ac tivity. Our nation may claim to be In advance of Europenn civilisa tion, but European roads put ours to shame. Never cn we have excellent re. i (is until we adopt patrol system for permanent main tenance. Rainy, snowy and muddy weather, which is sure to come, will bring the road question to every home. The quostion of using convict labor on nublie roads should have the attention of every stats legislature. Ootter Roads. . . .. GOOD WCriK OF THE GOVERNMENT OFFICE. Twin Valley Land Co.

Hypophysis that's from Hoston. One would judge from the looks of that word that it might be used to desig nate the name of a new sort of bug, or possibly a new variety of fruit pest. But such is not the case. We are told it promises to be a substitute for that fashionable physical ailment, which we have knwown through recent years as appendicitis.

Lot The Examiner Flffuro on Your Next Job Work Scores of Lakeview Reader are Learning the Duty ol the Kidneys. To hlter the blood is the kidneys' duty. When they fail to do this the kidnc.vs are sick. Backache and many kidney ills follow; Help the kidneys do their work. Doan's Kidney Pills have cured thousands of severe cases. Proof in the following: Mrs. William Charley, Orape .St., Mcdford, Ore., says: "The public statement I gave In praise of floan's Kidney Pills in 11)07 still holds good. I occasionally take this remedy and find that It keeps my kidneys in proper working order. A fall was the cause of kidney complaint in my case. The kidney secretions were unatural and sometimes I had ttuch acute pains In my back that I could hardly bend over. I did not sleep well and despite the use of plasters, liniments and remedies of various kinds, I continued to suffer. While in that condition, Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to my attention and procuring a supply, I commenced their use. In about twe weeks I felt better and the contents of two boxes made me well. I have recommended Doan's Kidney PHU to inaov other people." For 8nl by a" dalers Price 60 cent. Koh r-;.1illurn Co., Buffalo, N. Y., sole ageuta for the United States. Let Goid Roads Come Ouir.klv. It Is planned hy the; Good Itoads usso rlatlon of Spokane county. Wash . with them operation of tbe Statehood Itoads association, county and township or. ganizntloiis and properly owners along the route, to build a modern highway bordered with n continuous Hue of shade trees between Spokane nnd Coeur d'Alene. Such a road would be of direct benefit to thousands of peo ple, urban and rural residents alike, and would also be a valuable oblcct lesson for the people of the surround ing country, tvbo as time passes urn becoming more deeply Interested In the vital subject of g I and permanent highways. It Is hoped the proposed road will materialize and prove the wisdom of Its construction in sueti a way as to cause the bleu to spread. Simple Addition. "One mile of good roiid will build an other mile, and two miles of good roads will build four more, arid so on until the farmer has tbe road he wants from farm to market place, and the nutolst has the trunk line that he wants, and everybody Is sutlsfitsl," says ex-Jov-eruor I'routy of Vermont. Philippine Highway Prizes. Three prizes of $7,oiiO, if."..!) und $2,500 were awarded in the Philippines last year to provinces for excellence in maintaining and constructing highways. HIGHWAY HINT8. f All road repair work should be T done in the spring as soon as J the frost is out of the ground. X A dry earth road will not freeze and heave, for it is not the earth, but the water it con- I tains, that freezes. T Some engineers work from a 7 patch work design with no defi- , X nite purpose but to spend the r appropriation, Too meny local roads lead to the home of some influential farmer who has a political pull. T. Roads must be built to suit the character and the vnlom ot T traffio they are to bear, A Prophesy A prophesy has hern made that some day all rrtail piano stores will he conducted hy the manufactur ers themselves. 1 he reason given for this is the unreliahility of many of there agents who make prom ises which cannot he fulfilled. Should this prophesy come Irue the purchaser would he much bet ter satisfied for he would not he buying through the unreliable mid dle man.
