To Build I'm Traffic,

Frank G. Carpenter, the celebrated news
paper correspondent, in an article on Jim
Hill, relates the following practical method,
employed by the great magnate for creating
traffic for his road:
"One of Jim Hills hobbies in the de-
velopment of his railroad system is the iuI-
provement of the stock and the farming
along his line of road. He has for years
been distributing fine stock, sheep, cattle
and hogs, to the different sections for breed.
ing purposes, stipuIating that the animal
shall be for the use of the communities. He
has usually sold them at moderate figure
to one of the leading farmers in each place
with this provision, and has rarely charged
more than the cost of the freight from st.
Paul. Among othef things that he dis
tributed in this way were some very fine
hogs, the offspring of some that he imported
from the old country himself, and which
cost HIM several hundred dollars apiece.
He sold them for about S. apiece to these
farmers and sent them out all a'ong the line.
One day not long ago he came down to his
office in st. Paul to find an old farmer wait.
ing for him. He asked him what he could
do for him, and the farmer said: 'Mr. Hill,
I have come down to do business with you.

Took it of you at S. Well, lIke,it so wei

An Interesting Land Case.


An interesting land case in Oregon has
been brought before Surveyor General Byars
for decision. The trouble arose oyer the
fact that the Malheur lake, in the south
western portion of the state, which formerly
covered an area of about Is, 600 acres, went
dry two or three years ago, except long,
narrow strip in the center, covering about a
section. The cause of this was channel
forced through sand ridge between the
lake and Harney lake, which is slower, al
loving the water to drain off into the latter.
On the lands left bare by the recedence of
the water, some sixty persons have settled
and are cultivating farms. 1t appears that
a man named Nodine had acquired possess
sion of all or nearly all the land around the
margin of the lake, and he now claims that
the ''made lands, or the land left bare by
the draining off of the water, accrues to
him, and Surveyor General Byars has been
instru :ted to have the land surveyed. He
will have to make a ruling in the matter.
This is only one of the many complications
which have arisen from the habit lakes 10
that part of the state have. of drying up or
Of becoming land at one season and water at
another.

Weather Bulletin, No. s. for soeek ending
Tuesday. april II, 1898:
EASTERN OREGON.
Weather-Tbe weather continues TO be
wet, cloudy and cool; there is marked
absence of sunshine. Six inches of snow
fell on the morning of the 10th in Una
tilla, Union, Wallowa and Baker coun-
ties. Frosts h.ve been frequent. The
amount of rainfall for the week has
ranged from O.e0 of an inch to l.33 inches.
The season is unusually late and back
ward.
Crops-There are very few, if any,
trees'showing blossom east of the Cas-
cade mountains. Color can be seen on
some peach and cherry trees about Mil
ton and The Dalles. Buds are swelling
in the Columbia and Snake river valleys,
but they are much later than usual. The
ground is thoroughly saturated. Spring
seeding Is greatly delayed. Grass has
slow growth. Little spring plowing has
been done in the interior counties, while
in Wasco, Sherman and Gillian counties
it is about completed. The farmers and
stockmen are generally jubllant over the
prospects. though where spring seeding is
not completed there is considerable COM
plant Warmer and fair weather would
now prove very beneficial and would
greatly facilitate growth of vegetation
and the backward farming operations.
Stock on the range are not IN good con-
aition. Landing season is on, and small
loss is reported. In klamath county
stock have been turned onto the range.

Vancouver Independent: Portland anglers
are discussing the introduction of black bass
IN the waters of the Columbia and William
cite. There are two species of black bass
and they are both imam eaters" among the
finny tribes. II the "big mouth" black
bass has greater capacity for destroying
''bull heads" and Dutch carp than TIE small
mouth black bass they are the boys. By
all means give us the most destructive va
rietY. We only hope these fish will grow
as big as sharks, and will some day devour
the genius from nowhere, who planted these
trash fish, in the waters of the Columbia.
The damage they have already done to wild
fowl shooting and the salmon industry Is
more than their increase in the next forty
years will be worth. People who prefer
carp and "bull heads" to the native species
must have an innate fellow feeling for these
fish themselves, including the sucker"

Arbor DaY.

This afternoon the exercises at the public
schools partook of those relating to planting
aud growth of shrubbery; but as the dlrec-
tors planted twenty trees IN the ground this
spring, and as no more were desired, this
part of the programme was omitted.
the teachers of tine different departments
drilled their pupils IN declamations appro-
pirate to the occasion, and these consisted
from couplet to a complete poem. tits I'M
necessary to state that all acquitted them
selves admirably. There were quite mum
ber Of visitors present, and these were
highly entertained. The day is one that
should be universally observed, and as moth
ing Is more attraetsve to any educational
institution than trees, the day is made of
practical utility. In after years, the man
or woman may point with pride to giant
growth planted in childhood days, and the
tree NAV thus become an attractive scene
around which memory delights to cling.

A Rough Journey.
W. W. Statesman.


Mrs. j. G. Eberly, wife OF DIR. Eberly
went last fall to visit her sisters at Fort
Bldwell, in the northeast of California
near the Nevada line. The trip there was
enjoyable, but haying stayed till winter
had set in, there was no getting out again
till the snow had disappeared. From Fort
Bidwell to the nearest railroad is 1l0
miles, which has TO be trayersed by stage
over rough mountain rosd with frequent
hollows. where mud and water threatened
to engulf the coach and Its occupants
bodily. AT times the coach sank so low
that the water flowed freely through it.
Mrs. Eberly had to be strapped to the
sea- and her baby strapped to her to keep
them from being pitched out bodily. 1t
took two days and two nights to travel
the ITO miles. The doctor received no
mail for five weeks owing to the difficulty
of Its being brought out. Horseback and
snowshoes were the only means OF travel
during the winter Mrs. Eberly arrived
home with marks of the bruises received
in her rough ride still visible, and says it
will be some time before she attempts the
journey again.

dren left for Missouri, Saturday night.
Another son, aged 20. was left working at
