What "a Whopper.

The following piece of informa-
ton appears i'm the Scientific Amer
lean of recent date, and for down
right ignorance of this State, il cer-
talnly takes the lead: East of the
Cascade mountains Oregon is a ster-
lie plain with no vegetation save
the sage brush, the dwarf pine and
the juniper. There are number OF
lakes in the southern portion,
which, however, are mostly aka
line and marshy. the country is
dreary and monotonous. In the
region of the Columbia tributaries
at the north, however, the country
is more attractive, and the valleys
are covered with a growth of forest
trees. The woods abound in game
and the abundance of bear, deer,
panthers, mountain sheep and
wolves make this region a paradise
for hunters

An Artesluu Well,

In Eastern Oregon they are hav-
an unusually dry season, and the
people In that vicinity are rustling
about to get something to drink and
are making an attempt Ia bore an
artesian well, The dry season has
produced lamentable results all
over Eastern Oregon, and water has
become invaluable. How 10 secure
Il Is n question OF paramount import
ance To the settlers, and they ARE
proceeding Ia do for themselves all
that Ii possible. II there is any vir-
tue In favorable locations the peo-
pie Of Harvey Valley have every
thing 10 hope nom well-boring, The
great water reservoirs Ia be found to
the west In the Cascades should fur
nish deep stores of water ready To
rise Ia the surface. The Blue noun
tains are yet nearer and IL being SUR
rounded by vast mountain walls
that possess untold stores Of water Is
"a promise of water from artesian
sources, then the inland empire
should possess means Ia create a

THURSDAY-------JULY Is
Irrigation.

Some of the citizens of salem
seem to think that the more water
they can get to throw over theii
lawns or garden patches, the better
IL is for vegetation; that their pota
toes will grow larger and be more
N Imerous. and that the grass VIII
grow faster and greener, etc, bu'
there are Others who have different
views Oh the subject. y gentleman
of considerable experience wa'
speaking Of this matter today TO h
JOURNAL reporter, and he was oi
the opinion that too much irrlgh'
tion was ns bad II not worse, thai,
no irrigation at all. In the hrst
place he considered 1t very un'
healthy, and especially disadvanta'
geous to persons of weak lungs, t'
have the ground about our home
continually and everlastingly soak
ing wet, causing noxious vnpors to
arise when heated by the rays ol
the sun. And besides all this toe
much irrigating has n tendency to
weaken the soil, it losing certain Of
It's virtues, thereby making II neces.
sary to pour on water, lniter the
habit IL once contracted) continu.
ally In order TO produce anything.
This IL n fact well substantiaied by
the Southern California gardeners,
who find that each succeeding year
more water Is required to raise the
same amount of vegetables. They
find that gronud which has been
under cultivation for several years
takes twice the amount of water
that new soil does. This is account
ed for on the ground that more wa
ter was used In the preceding years
than was actually necessary.

"ny the Sad Sea Waves,

Every day some one of the citizens
of Salem takes his departure for the
sea coast. There are many popular
resorts within easy distance, and ny
the warm days come on the business
man, who has toiled long and hard,
feels as though salt-sea bath would
bring back renewed strength and
vigor, and the longer he thinks
about the matter the more he desires
to breast the foaming billows of the
deep sounding sea, and finally he Is
oil. Many families are gone and
their houses are closed foI the sum
mer, and the familiar faces so often
seen on the streets will he seen no
more until the leaves begin To fall.
In consequence of which trade IL
necessarily dull, and the usual activ.
ity about the streets and places of
business has fallen oil. But let those
who are compelled to stay at home
console themselves with the assur-
ance that the coming fall Will open
up brisker trade In all branches of
business than Salem has enjoyed for
many years. All signs point that
way, and the growing crops and the
rush of eastern people To this coast
will verify the prediction.

According TO the Albany Demo
crat the people up that way are OPP
posed TO violating the law by per-
mitting dead Chinese pheasants to

Rather than violate the law in ref
eence 10 leaving dead animals by
the wayside he put the beautiful
bird In his bag and marched on.
A man, by the way the same one
who caused n resident of this city to
pay $50 for u like luxury, saw the
suspicious looking bag and asked to
soe what was in IL, The boy said
no, Il was his bag. Then the man

his gun at the man aud told him he
would shoot he did not keep his
hands oh, lie retreated.

Charles A. Gardner, more fanil-
iarly and popularly known as "Karl
Gardner" the German comedian
and singer, will appear Saturday
evening in his new comedy, Faith
erland," romantic and picturesque
drama of life in the Tyrol. The
play is the work Of Sidney r. Ellis,
with whom Mr.. Gardner collaborat-
ed in the production. Mr. Gardner,
in the part of Herman Leopold, n
Tyrolean peasant-half hunter, half
guide-presents character natural,
but picturesque withal, and he is the
central figure of many stirring in
cidents. His voice is heard to adj
vantage in Characteristic songs OF
Tvrol, and his singing of "The
Lilac" the accompaniment to one OF
the most dramatic episodes in the
play, is an interesting feature of the
performance.
