HIGH OCEAN TIDES
►
VISIT THIS COAST
Many people who visited the beach-
es last Sunday remarked about the
high tides that prevailed, At Ocean­
side, huge combers came in, and a
woman who was walking along the
beach was knocked down nnd rolled
over and over, until bystanders as­
sisted her to a safe place. Out side,
the breakers were angry, and huge
columns of spray were observed some
distance from the beach, although
there was no wind or other weather
disturbances to account for the con­
dition. According to those who have
been at the beaches for the past two
weeks, this condition has been es­
pecially noticeable, and many attri­
bute the high tides to the recent
earthquakes in Japan.

While hunting for deer over on
Cape Ixtokout one day last week,
Chas. Sewee of number 1002, Bull
Run avenue, Portland, stopped on the
cliff overlooking the Pacific at Cape
Lookout, and swept the sea with his
16 power binoculars for trace of a
passing steamer. As his glasses were
focused nearer inshore, he saw what
he thought to be at first an immense
log with an upturned limb, floating
about half a mile from the shore.
When the supposed log began to go
rapidily in the opposite direction, So­

Readers of the HEADLIGHT believe that this paper is the best in

friends a good turn by recommending the HEADLIGHT to them.
It is brimful of live news of Tillamook county every week and con
tains, besides that, much useful information. This is the reading
time of the year, when outside diversions do not draw people
from their homes in t he evening; this is the time when people
will want to become acquainted with the doings and affairs of the
community after a strenuous summer season.
This live weekly, one of the highest-rated in Oregon, is sent
to readers fifty-two times a year for $2.00. In passing it might be
mentioned that, thirty-five years ago when the TILLAMOOK
HEADLIGHT was first published, the price of this paper was $2
per year. Since that time there has been no raise in price—
something unusual when one considers how other things have
raised in cost.

HO PACKAGE
The timber industry of Oregon and
Washington is becoming greater each
year. It should be well known that
the Pacific northwest is the last
great timber body in the United
States, for such is the f ict.
Of all the states in tin northwest,
Oregon leads in the amount of stand­
ing timber available for lumber. For
some years past there has been a
great demand for eastern and south­
ern pine, the greatest tracts being
found in the southern states; but the
demand has practically exhausted
pine in the south and east, and the
supply in Idaho and Montana cannot
offset the demand. Recently, states
a well informed citizen of this county,
who has given the matter of statistics
careful attention, large orders have
been sent to dealers in this state for
pine. A quick survey by the dealers
resulted in a statement to the buyers
in the east that pine was not to be
had to fill the orders. The agents
here recommended that the eastern
dealers try Oregon fir instead. Fol­
lowing the statement came orders
from the east to ship Oregon fir to
take the place of the practically ex­
hausted pine, and it is now believed
that hereafter Oregon fir will replace
pine in the uses for which the latter
wood was ir such great demand.
This replacement of pine by fir will
greatly increase the sales of a wood
that is at this time plentiful in Ore­
gon and Washington. It will also in­
crease the volume of the lumber busi­
ness in the northwest. The demand
for pine in the past has been enor­
mous, and with most of the fir sub­
stitute in Oregon and Washington, it
is easy to figure the increase in the
lumber business, and the correspond­
ing financial benefit to timber owners
and mill men of the northwest. Thus
it will be seen that great prosperity
is in store for the lumber business in
in Oregon, and there is no danger of
a slump in that business in this state,
where the main stand of the timber is
located. Instead of a falling off in pro­
duction of lumber, we have just be­
gun to manufacture it in this state.
In fact, Washington, with much lesB
standing timber of a merchantable
kind, is far ahead of Oregon in pro­
duction, according to statistics.
Tillamook county is nicely situated,
therefore, to reap a big benefit from
the new demund for fir, occasioned by
the exhaustion of the pine forests of
the southern and eastern sections of
the United States. Wood the people
must have, and its uses are growing
each year.

was not satisfactory. From the test­
imony of one or two people who live
in the vicinity of the place where the
snake was said to have been seen,
there is a lurking suspicion that Se­
wee had in some manner secured a
drink or two of Tillamook moonshine
just previous to the time he related
his snake tale. It is said that two
drinks of Tillamook white mule will
cause the most fantastic optical de­
rangement, and is apt to throw most
any kind of a scene on the screen—
usually sea serpents or green mice.

During the early part of the week,
under the direction of deputy game
warden, Geo. W. Russell, 366.000 Cut­
throat trout were taken front the
ponds at the Gold Creek hatchery and
distributed in the following streams
and rivers of this county, to wit:
Beaver, Trask, Wilson, Miami and
Foley. The distribution was made in
two big state trucks by Mr. Craig,
who has charge of fish distribution
for the game commission over the
state.
These trout were hatched,
states Mr. Russell, from eggs obtain­
ed from Montana: and all of fhe trout
hatched in this county are distributed
in this county, without exception. He
states that there are people who have
the impression that trout fry hatched
here are taken to other counties, but
such is not the case. The fish com­
mission may do that, hut not the game
commission, as it has to do soley with
trout, and not salmon, the latter com­
ing under the direction of the fish
commission.
wee sat up and took notice. His com­
panions were scattered over the cape,
and there was no one to verify his
tale, but Sewee says he saw the big­
gest sea serpent that over swam since
the time of Noah, or any other ol«i
timer. Its head was estimated to be
above the water and its body at least
10 feet, and the snake was fully 100
feet long. Its head was as big as a
New Orleans molasses barrel, and its
body was twice ns large in circumfer­
ence as its head. Just south of the
cape, he saw a struggle in the sea.
and soon the monster emerged from
a big tussle with a sea lion, with the
dead lion in its mouth. When last
seen the serpent was making about
ten knots an hour, and faded from
view south of the cape.
Sewee told the story to his compan­
ions that evening at the house of a
rancher near the foot of the cape, and
while his companions jeered at him
for “pulling old time stuff," the ran­
cher stated that he too had seen the
same sea serpent at various times,
but forebore to mention it for fear of
being ridiculed. He also stated that
he once saw the big snake so close
in shore that he could count the rat­
tles on its tail—there were 637 of the
castanets. He classed the snake as a
cross between a diamond backed rat­
tler and an anaconda.
