INVESTIGATING LAND FRAUDS.
Washington Land Grabbers Under the
MICROSCOPE.

combination of small stockmen
Of Eastern Washington has had an at
torney in Olympia going over the
records of the state land office in an
effort to find means OF breaking up
the immense tracts of grazing lands
under fence by bigger stockmen in the
state, says the Walla Walla Statesman.
The settling up of the country, the
restricting of the running stock at
large by enactment of the legislature
and the gradual spreading out of the
monied cattlemen is resulting in a
threatened crowding out OF the small
er interests. They have contributed
literally to purse. and 1t is said,
propose to contest the legality of a
large number OF leases issued by the
state land office on grazing lands in
Eastern Washington. The attack will
be made upon the ground that these
leases have been issued to go-betweens

LAST WOOL SALES.
About 100000 Pounds Sold at ShanikO
for 20 to % Cents.


A special from Shaniko to a Port
land paper says regarding the wool
sales held there this week:
The last of the sealed bid wool sales
scheduled in Oregon came off here
Tuesday. The offerings were about
15 lots, aggregating 100000 pounds.
Notwithstanding there were only two
buyers in attendance, c. F. Green.
representing ]. Koshland & Co., of
Boston, and E. w. Brigham, of Whit
man, Farnsworth & Thayer, of Bos-
ton, the competition was active. Prac-
tically the same range of prices that
prevailed at the previous sales, when
there were 20 buyers in attendance,
was maintained today.
Only one small lot of defective wool
brought less than 20 cents, all of the
others bringing from 20 to 20 1-Sc.
Among the lots sold were those of j.
L. Boonhouse, at 20 cents: E. r.
Laughlin at 20 1-Sc; George Robs, at
20 34c, and Ben Iremongen, at 22
1-Sc.
simultaneously with the closing of
the wool selling from this section the
last trainload of sheep contracted for
Eastern shipments went out Tuesday,
making an aggregate for the seasons
shipment of about $50 cars, or at least
125,000 head chiefly yearlings; with
the sheep bringing an average price
of 81 per head and the 1000, 900
pounds OF wool marketed at this
place at an average of 20 cents, the
sheep farmers of this section will
realize over s1,OOO,OOO for this years
harvest.

Story of Lewis and Clark.

One consequence of the Lewis and
Clark exposition at Portland has been
a renewed demand for Noah Brooks
book First Across the Continent:
The Story OF the Lewis and Clark Ex-
pedition." Noah Brooks, when a
young man. went out to California
with the first rush of gold seekers,
and Travelled on foot and by wagon
across the continent, and 1t is that ex-
perience which is the foundation of
his story of ''The Boy Emigrants." one
of the best books for boys that was
ever written. His first-hand knowl-
edge of what even a comparatively
civilized trip across the continent
meant, made 1t possible for him to
give a sense of individual and personal
experience to the story of the Lewis
and Clark expedition that makes his
account of that great exploration
probably the most interesting and
realistic one that has been written.-

California and other western states
have proved the efficacy of irrigation
in promoting agriculture, but there
are millions of acres Of fertile land
unused through lack of sufficient
water
Much of this land will be reclaimed
by the gigantic irrigation works plan
ned by the national government, but
the scope of this work is limited by
the amount of water available. The
Influence Of forests in conserving a
limited rainfall is recognized. but they
are often wanting where most needed.
Thus, forest planting is often neces-
sary.
An example Of what the bureau of
forestry is doing in this direction is
! furnished by the nursery which 1t IS
establishing Is miles from Santa Bar
bara, in southern California.
This is the fourth forest nursery
which the bureau has established
within western forest reserves. No
where in California is water needed
more than in the coast plain east and
southeast of Santa Barbara.
To cover large areas with new tree
growth, however, in regions where the
forest cannot naturally restore itself,
is a difficult matter. Unless great
care is used in the seceltion of species
and in the cultural methods employed,
the work is likely to prove a failure.
Methods which would succeed on a
small plantation are impracticable on
large scale, on account of the ex-
pense.
! The nursery in the Santa Barbara
reserve will be planted with seed of
| trees likely to flourish in that region.
Coulter and yellow pine will be most
| largely planted. The seedlings will
be ready to transplant to their perma-
nent locations two years hence.
The first attempt at reforesting will
be made on the upper watershed of
the Santa YneZ river, which supplies
the town of Santa Barbara with water.
This town of only 10000 inhabitants
is spending 100000 to secure a good
water supply. A dam and reservoir
for this purpose are now under con-
struction. The Santa Ynez watershed
Is now bare or poorly covered with
chaparral. A good forest growth is
bcNii ~ NoilStINt lIlt water
and TO present the washing down
of silt, which, if unchecked, would
eventually fill and ruin the reservoir.
The success of the transplanting will
depend largely upon the season. In
excessively dry years good results can
not be expected, and the bureau must
take advantage of a wet season. Prep
arations for the transplanting will be
begun Immediately, so the quick work
can be done the first favorable season
after the seedlings are old enough.
In the whole of the Santa Barbara
forest reserve, which contains nearly
two million acres, there are only two
groves of any size. There is, therefore,
large opportunity for the extension
of the work of tree planting if it
proves successful.
In Nebraska the bureau of forestry
has demonstrated its ability to solve
the same kind Of difficulties with
which it is confronted in California,
ana has successfully established for
est plantations at an extremely low
cost. If it can do the same in south
ern California it will be an import
ant work for the welfare of the re-
gion.

OIL FOR PORTLAND STREETS.
Test Will BE Made With Oil for
Sprinlxling Purposes.


The first practical test OF oiled
streets in Portland is TO be tried on a
BLOCK on Twentieth street, between
Washington and Couch streets, says
the Oregon Daily Journal. Residents
there have inaugurated the plan and
nearly all will share the expense
Frank Velguth, representing a
southern California oil company. is
i'm Portland with machine designed
for oiling roads, The cost for a So
foot lot will be $21. 1t is said one oil
Ing is sufficient for a year. The
third year a still less quantity of oil
is applied, and the road is in condition
to stand weather wear and tear for
an indefinite period. 1t is said the
same process was tried on the Multi
nomah club tennis courts some years
ago, and that they have retained a
surface of perfect hardness and i'm
perviousness to water. There is talk
of oiling Twentieth street its entire
length, and completing an oiled route
to the exposition ground to connect
with the oiled road that is to be estab-
lished from that point to Fairmont
inn by the Portland Automobile club.
The oil is put on the street at a
temperature OF 200 degrees, and the
surface is then sanded.

LIVE HAWAIIAN
Fish FOR NEW YORK

The establishment in San Francisco
Of great aquarium is going to make
it possible, according TO the officials OF
the New York aquarium, for the local
institution to become the greatest insti-
tuition of the kind on earth. For long
time the curators of the New York
aquarium have looked forward with
a great longing to the time when II
would be possible to keep on exhibition
in New York the magnificent fish that
swarm in the waters OF the Pacific, near
the coast lines of the Hawaiian Islands
For years it has been impossible to
secure live specimens of the Hawaiian
fish because of the distance. The es-
adjustment of the San Francisco aquar-
ium will solve the question, they say.
since that institution will act, so to
speak. as relay station between the
aquarium in New York and Hawaii.
The fish will be brought first to the
San Francisco aquarium. where they
will be kept long enough to be accli-
mated. They will then be sent through
on the fastest train available to New
York-N. Y. Times.

CHALLENGES QUINN
To DRIVING MATCH

]. H. Love, one of the Police Patrol
wagon drivers, stated last night that
he desired to challenge Jim Quinn of
the Territory Stables to a six-horse
team driving match. The recent six
horse coaching trips about Honolulu
have aroused the driving spirit of all
old-time handlers of ribbons. Love
eliminates Lewis of the Stockyards.
He says he has seen Lewis give exhi-
billions of his skill on California stage
routes.
Love says he will go into a corral
and pick out six green horses, hitch
them and drive them in any rig select
ed. He will also drive on a graded
road, such as that to the Pail. or on
any street in the city. He is willing
to stake his reputation for purse of
from 800 to $500. Love says he won
a prize in a stage-driving match at
Carson City, and he was also the win
ner in broncho-riding match in
Nevada.
