Half -Acre Tracts
at Altamont Show
. Wide Popularity
Continued rail estate activity In
suburban property adjacent to
Klamath Falls, Is Indicated by the
ale laat week of six of the Wlshard
half-acre tracta at Altamont, pop
ular subdivision which has shown
remarkable development In the past
tew months.
' The so-called half-acre subdivision
at Altamont, opened last August by
the Wiahard Realty company of this
city, comprises 110 tracts ot this
size, and since the date of opening
78 of these have been sold, an ac
complishment ot which A. U Wih
rd, president of the concern, is
justly proud.
. Relatively, the building growth
ot this subdivision virtually rivals
thst ot the city, and at the present
time no lees than SO modern homes
are under construction. F. M. Law
rence, who purchased two ot the
all tracta sold last week, has an
nounced that he will start construc
tion at once on two houses there.
' Hines Nelson, Eugene contract
ors, who have been active in resi
dential building circles here, have
Just completed a block of four new
bouses on Altamont half-acre tracts,
and it la expected that considerable
more building will take place this
tall and winter, as msny ot the
purchasers plan to move on their
tracts next spring in time to start
(ardens.
' Gardening is one of the features
of this property, located in the heart
of a fertile farming district. Many
on Altamont acres, which have been
On the market tor over a year, and
which are practically all sold, have
experienced fine success with truck
gardens.
' Several purchasers of half-acre
(racta have commenced construction
of poultry houses and pens, in prep
aration for stocking with the birds
when spring opens. Financial in
dependence for the wage earner
through the production ot poultry
and garden truck in connection with
his work In the city, is one ot the
advantages stressed by the Wis hard
Realty company In offering this land
to the public. The half-acres are
a bait mile from the city, and are
adjacent to three macadam roads.
Pedigreed Bulls
To Pass Through
On Way to North
Of interest to Klamath county
stockmen came the announcement
from the local office of the Stra
horn railroad yesterday that four
carloads ot pedigreed bulls will
pass through this city today.
Two cars comprising 55 head
ot the thoroughbred breeding stock
are being shipped from Eugene ly
Cal Eaton, to the Sprague ltiver
valley, from where they will be
driven to various stock ranches
In Lake county. The majority of
this shipment will be placed on
the ranches ot 1!. A. llrattin. V.
B. Snider, C. W. Withers and Eld
er McDonald, all in the Paisley
vicinity, although several other
stockmen will get one or two head.
The other two cars to pass
through here, are enrouta for Eug
ene and constitute a sort of ex
change, inasmuch as the Lake coun
ty stockmen are sending 55 head
ot the bulla north. Eaton will dis
tribute this stock out ot Eugene,
according to I!. A. Brattln who
was In Klamath Falls yesterday.

tains was made at noon, when tog
again forced the mail plane to turn
back, SO miles west ot Klamath
Falls.
A third attempt in the afternoon
also tailed, as the fog in the valley
had neither lifted nor thinned.
ljcft Portland Early
' Bookwaltcr and his relief pilot
left Portland early yesterday morn
ing. Intending to fly south via the
regular eosst route, but perilous
flying conditions there forced them
to swing eastward.
Neither pilot was familiar with
the local field, but spotting Klam
ath Falls when they swung in this
direction, thew flew low over the
city In search of a place to land
In order that depleted fuel tanks
might be replenished. A roadside
sign "To the Klamath Air Service
Landing Field" gave them the clue
needed.
Xortli-bound Plane Returns
The north-bound plane scheduled
to meet Bookwalter's craft at Med
ford. also spent several hours at
tempting to find a landing place
at or near the air mail port, but
was finally forced to return to
Yraeka to land.
Bookwalter and Anderllne are
here this morning awaiting further
Instructions. It was believed last
night that a Portland plane will
bring mail south today, and If the
fog still bangs in the coast valleys
It will probably land In Klamath
Falls and send the mail to Med
ford by stage.
Klamath Lofcirnl Point
R. A. Shelton, business manager
of the Klamath Air Service, de
clared last niKht, following con
versation with the air mall pilots
here, that this city will undoubted
ly be chosen tor an air mail port
in the near future as the pilots are
all In favor of the safer landings
possible here.

Kiddies Enjoy Music xaj
at Home
Make it easy for your youngster to have a good time right at home
it's much safer. ,
Don't make it possible for your child, in after years to say "we had a bet
ter time anywhere else than home."
If parents take no particular interest in their homelife children will
grow up the same way.
Every child needs music, eveiy home should have it, but don't ex
pect "weeping" if you fail to provide the child will realize fully the par
ents' neglect after they are grown up.
Thirty months to pay enables almost every parent to provide a piano
and does away with the time worn excuse "lets wait another year."
