A new form of money orders was is
sued September 4th, which is as near tc
the bank check in size and shape as pos
sible. AS about 70 per cent of t. G
money orders are now collected through
the banks, it was considered important
enough by the post Office department to
make the money orders uniform in size
to ordinary bank notes, as it was a great
inconvenience to bankers to use the ola
form with the commercial paper they
handle. The new order will also be OF
greater convenience to postmasters. Il
will take less time to make them out,
and by theus of carbonized paper, the
advice or notification to be sent by the
issuing to the paying postmaster is q
reproduction Of the order BY this OPP
Grafton discrepancies between the order
and the advice are prevented, as there
will be absolute uniformity between the
two. A receipt will also be furnished
by the issuing postmaster, showing the
number and date of the order and the
amount for which issued. This will
also be q reproduction Of the carbon

Some idea Of the wonderful increase
in the business of the post Office depart
ment Is had from the fact that an ex-
penditure of $50, 1893, ,2O9,53 for carrying
the mails in 1883 had swelled TO $50 ,294,
gs?, ,23 in 1898, an increase to nearly
double in ten years In 1879 the total
length Of qnr postal routes was 1891
miles the last report shows it to be now
l74,777 The annual transportation over
these routes in 1879 was SO, 497 1853 miles,
the last report showing a milage OF 2sl, :
5e5,6l2, In other words, less than twenty
years has seen an increase Of ll6 per
cent in the total miles of route, and Of
1871 per cent in the grass of annual mill
age, a partial idea of what this whole
system Of the transportation in bulk Of
our mail matter has grown to under good
management, and owing to the gpeat in-
crease in general literacy, is derived
from the following statements taken
from figures in the last annual report Of
the postmaster general: OF travelling post
offices, on railway, steamboat, electric
and cable tramways, we have ,26S lines,
covering l6T ,755 miles, with a grand to-
tal, milage of 2s5,565, ,s4S. Over these

A fair sample Of our lnte strawberry
crop and the prices received was that Of
three acres grown two miles south OF
town by a farmer who don't care to have
his name mentioned. From his three
acres be shipped through the Hood River
union 533 crates for which he received
1925. Besides this he sold berries
enough to make the total for his three
acres amount to 600 crates. His gross
sales amounted TO sl.55 a crate, Taking
out the expense Of boxes, picking, pack
ing and water for irrigation, he had left
30 cents crate net for his own labor.
The crop was well cared for, which took
considerable labor, but who can say that
1910 was not good return for the time
spent in cultivatirg three acres of land?

The head OF the census bureau says
there are good reasops for belief that the
Indians of the United States are not de-
ereasing but increasing in numbers, and
he is confident that the returns for 1906
will show considerable gain over those
for 1890, when the Indian population o.
the United States, not including Alaska
was 249, ,273. 1t is doubted by those whit
have made special study of the subjec,
whether the Indian population Of the
present territory of the United States, al
the time Of the discovery by Columbus
was as much Us 500 600, and many judi
eious inquirers have doubted whether u
much exceeded 100000 The Indians il
their uncivilized state had nothing bur
the game Of the forests upon which L
depend for their food and clothing, and
least had but crude method for secur-
ing the same A little consideratior
will show that when game was almost
the only means Of food supply, it had t.
be very plentiful to supply half a millioi
people The Indians seldom cultivated
the ground, though today, in the Da'
kotas and Indian territory, many oi
them are prosperous farmers. With i
better shelter and clothing, ana a sure,
food supply upder civilization, the con
ditions ought to naturally Increase then
numbers rather than cause them to di,
off, as many lave been taught to believe

Secretary Hitchcock Of the interior
department recently issued an order can
ceiling the 6S permits that were granted
sheepmen 10 Craze within the Rainier
forest reserve, and hereafter all sheep
will be excluded from the reservation.
In making the exclusion order, the sec
yetary said "The granting Of such per-
mits was not in conformity, bnt rather
jnterfered with the objects for which for
est reservations ore created. " For this
reason he declined TO sanction such per-
mits. The decision Of Secretary Hitch
cock, it is said, Is but precedent, and
it will only be matter OF time before
sheep are exeIuded from al the forest
reserves Of the country, including the
great Cascade reserve Of Oregon. The
government has gent ont special agents,
who have made extensive Investigations,
and by whose reports the secretary OF
the interior is convinced that sheep
grazing in the forests is injurious to the
growth OF young trees and grass. There
is no good reason why the government
should adopt policy Of paternalism to-
ward the sheepmen Of Oregon in grant
ing them the special privilege OF free
pasturage, something which the other
farmers Of the country cannot take adj
vantage Of, while in the state of Ohio,
one Of the greatest wool-producing statcs
in the Union, the wool growers are COM
pelled to find their own pastlrage for
their sheep. The whole Of Eastern Ore
gon at one time furnished excellent pas
turage for sheep and cattle. Bat this
range has ali been eaten out, and il nc
restrictions are placed on forest grazing,
it will be but few years until such
ranges are completely destroyed also
The secretary is pursuing the right pol.
icy, one in conformity with the intent OF
the executive orders establishing the
forest reserves, and II continued, Oul
valuable mountain forests and perma-
nent water supplies will remain intact
and it is not liEely that the sheepmen
will have to goout of business either.
