Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1903-01-01

The fact that Morrow county with
over 100000 acres of land, extending
from the Columbia river southwark for
distance of 65 miles, with sp average
width of about 35 miles, and with pop
ulatlon of only from 5000 to 5000 people
to the person not acquainted with the
actual conditions, it would look like
something was wrong. But such is not
the case. Like great territory OF the
Inland Empire in Northeastern Oregon,
or in fact all that portion OF Oregon ly
ing East of the Cascade Mountains, we
have been passed by by settlers and
homeseekers who have gone to other
sections that have had the benefit of
more systematic and better advertising.
People We'll To Do.
To extreme isolation can be attributed
The main cause for this. People have
failed to come here and investigate and
good opportunities have been lying dor
mant for all these years.
People who did come here have been
successful and are very prosperous in all
kinds OF industry. The people OF Nor
row county are, generally speaking we'll
to do.
The fact that the great commercial
highway, The O. r. & N. railroad passes
through the extreme northern portion of
the country going through what is termed
the sand country. is in a measure, OK lit
would be better to say in former years,
barrier to immigration and especially
trssngers, not from any fault of this
splendid railway system which follows
the easy grade OF the Oolumbia river, but
from the deso!ate appearance of the
country.
The sand Country.
For the entire width of the county
there is marrow strip of arid land only
about eight miles wide on an average,
covered With shifting sands from the
winds that sweep up and down the great
Columbis.
This disintegrstion caused by the
waters OF the great river which from the
erosion OF ages have gradually settled
into permanent bed and left the sands,
gives to the stranger as viewed from the
river, the appearance OF a great desert.
This arid district is deceptive to the
eye. Thousands OF head of sheep, cat
tie and horses range in this sand and
wax fat upon the luxuriapt native
grasses that grow in this sand. All that
this land needs to become highly pro-
ductive, is the introduction OF water,
and the time will come when this coun-
try will be irrigated with government
aid, the movement for which is just now
being started and agitsted. With plenty
OF water this would become one of the
greatest fruit districts in the Northwest.
The altitude is such, coupled with the
proper climate that it makes very fsv-
Orsble combination of conditions for the
growth Of fine fruit.
Formerly Vast Range.

included in Morrow county was q vast

tstion.
From careful observation aud good
authority conservative estimate places
the number of stock in Morrow county
as follows:
Sheep, 225, 900, valued at $500, 600.
Cattle, 5000, valued at $150,000.
Horses, about 1000 head of work and
range horses worth all the way from $40
to 500 per head.
1t should be remem bered that in Civ
ing the amount of stock at this time,
the holdings of stockmen are not heavy
for stockraisers have reduced their flocks
and herds to the minimum iE order to
cut down as much as possible the cost Of
winter feeding.
stock Shipments.
From reliable information the stock
shipments for the year are as follows:
Horses, 1900. These horses were mostly
animals from the ranges uubrokep. Such
horses are worth from $40 10 s25 per
head.
Sheep, about $4,000, worth at a COL
servative estimate $4,000.
Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1903-01-01

Cattle shipments amount to about 900
head, and at the least calculation were
worth S25 90 per head.
The above shipments do not iuclude
several Carloads of hogs, ss well as the
surplus 2-year-old cattle that were driven
out for feeders. About 80 900 head of
sheep were also driven out.
When it is considered that n good
portion OF Morrow county is decided
land and under fence, and that for the
year 1902, the county produced ,250, 900
bushels OF wheat, this seems al enor-
nous output, no. only for the size OF
the territory but for the comparatively
few people in the county TO handle.
Natural Advantages For stock.
Such stock output would not be pos.
sble if it were not for the peculiar ed-
ventaRes that the county possesses for
the growing OF stock.
Such vast number of hoofs are not
aud could not be kept entirely within
the borders OF Morrow the entire year.

General Miles, after a long and honorable career in the United States, retired from active service last Satur- day, having reached the age limit, 64 years. In bidding farwell to the army, of which he has been the "Gen- eral commanding" for eight years, General Miles issued patriotic and eloquent valedictory which was dis tributed as general order 116." Im- mediately on the retirement of General Miles the President appointed General s. B. M. Young to succeed him. This appointment was the occasion of sincere disappointment to many of General Miles, friends who had hoped that he might have the honor of being the last general commanding, that position going out of existence on August l5, when the new law provid- ing for a general staff goes into effect.

The last general order issued by General Miles was one prohibiting the docking of the tails, or mutilation in other manner, of all army horses. This applies to the officers, notwith- standing the fact that many of the of ficers buy and pay for their own mounts, and it is believed that a gen. eral order to this effect will have a salutary result in curtailing the prac- tice throughout the country.

At least one good thing has resulted from the financial furry in New York. The promoter of fake enterprises has all but lost his job, as the suckers re- fuse to bite at any great extent. If people have any money to invest it would be better to invest 1t in some good home enterprise, where it is sure to yield a reasonable dividend.

One of the best ways to solve the shortage of labor question in the western farming country is for the railroads to adopt some reasonable method of getting the unemployed of other sections out to the country where they are needed. Many an eastern man without dollar in his pocket would be glad to get out west and on farm if the transportation question was removed, but in nine cases out of ten the lack of funds compel them to remain in their own towns. The rail- road companies might give the subject some profitable thought.

Don't invest your hard earned dol lars in the fake mining companies that are flooding the mails with their literature. When enormous dividends are to be made you will find the finan- cial kings dabbling in that sort of thing themselves. The fakir always preys upon the credulity of the man with few hundreds, and in most cases succeeds in getting his money without giving anything in return but a little worthless paper.

Despite the general belief among physicians that women live longer than men, many of the leading life in- surance companies decline to accept the gentler sex as risks. But why should that cause any worry? The men of this country are amply able to care for the women, and a man with spirit does not need to have the life of his wife insured. If he has any money to spare he prefers to devote it to in- surfing her happiness during her life time.
