FOREST EXHIBIT.
The Intimate Relation Between
Forestry and Irrigation.

The exhibit of the Forest Ser
vice at the Lewis and Clark Ex-
position gives deserved promin-
ence to the need and the value OF
forestry in the Northwest. 1t
emphasizes the great benefits OF
the forests to the region, both
on the northern Pacific coast,
where they are the richest in the
world in their stand of merchant
able timber, and in the agri-
cultural areas of eastern Wash
ington and Oregon, where they
dominate the success of irrigation
by their storing and supply of
treasured water. Indeed, the
intimate relation between forestry
and irrigation-the most import
ant economic problem of the
Northwest-is most fully brought
out in the association of the forest
exhibit with that of the Re-
clamation Service in the same
building.
The picturesque Oregon State
Forestry Building" constructed
of the giant red fir logs, is dis
tinct from the Government fores-
try building, but it has attracted
much attention and has also as
sisted greatly in impressing the
public with the exceptional char
acter of the northwestern forest
reserves.
The Government forest ex

The exhibit does not end, how
ever, with disclosing the damage
to forests in the past, or even
with prescribing preventives for
the future, but it also shows how
the naturally treeless plains of
the Middle West are capable, un-
der correct methods of tree plant
ing, of supporting forest growth.

the public daily by the officials
in charge. It is also planned to

BUREAU MAS
COMPLETED ALL PLANS For
IMMENSE UNDERTAKING.
Is Known As FL Paso System, Whieh
Has Been Agitated For Forty
Five Years.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. a.
Plans for the largest single irrigation
plant yet undertaken by the federal
government have been completed by
the Bureau of Reclamation Of Arid
Lands
1t is what is known as the Ell Paso
system, which has been the subject OF
agitation in Texas for quarter Of .
century. Last winter congress by a
special act made this project one for
teh bureau to take up at once. Its
cost is to be $7,200.000. the greatest
Of any one work Of the kind ever un-
dertaken in the United States.
The plan is to construct dam near
Engla, N. NJ, 100 miles north Of FL
Paso, on the Rio Grande, by which
water enough will be saved to irrigate
1SO, 900 acres of the richest land In the
west, lying in New Mexico and Texas.
and also 10000 acres in Mexico.
The Rio Grande being an interna-
tional stream it will require the COM
pletion of a pending treaty between
the United States and Mexico before
the work can begin. Mexico for many
years has complained that the far
mers on this side Of the boundary
are usig the water of the river, which
for 400 years the Pueblo Indians used
to irrigate their fields. They raised
magnificent crops of corn and ce-
reals up to within a quarter Of q
century, since when the white far

QUESTION OF ALLOWING BET
TING AT SALEM FAIR HAS
BEEN RAISED.
It May Result in the Regular Racing
Program Being Abandoned by the
Managers.

Will there be betting at the Oregon
State Fair in years to come, If the lid
is put on at Irvington this year, as
now seems might be the case? Just
at present no one seems to knew, or II
they do know, they are not talking
about it. The Multnomah Fair asso-
citation officials, naturally enough, are
not desirious of making any state
ments until they see how their own
case is finally terminated. There is
still a bare possibility that the tenn
porary order prayed for and granted
Captain Spencer may not be made
permanent says the Portland Tele-
gram.
Horseracing without the attendant
poolse1ling would be like Hamlet with
Hamlet left out, like ship without
rudder or a fish without a tail. People
enjoy the excitement of the races all
right, but there is an added excitement
when they can have a dollar or so bet
on the results that cause them to want
to go to the track.
Furthermore it is hardly possible to
offer the large purses that attract
the crowds and the best horses en-
tirely on the gate receipts. Any man
connected with the racing game,
whether it be harness races or the run
ners, will tell you the same thing.
For this reason, the State Fair races
could hardly afford to run unless
poolselling were permitted and if the
Portland gate is closed tight, some
one may see to it that the same thing
happens in Salem.

FROM NORTHWEST PAPERS
Franklin County Wheat.

T. G. Montgomery returned yester-
day afternoon from a visit to his
wheat ranch near Connell, Franklin
county, Washington. Mr.. Montgom-
cry reports conditions in the new farm
ing country as being most satisfactory
and that this years wheat crop there
will be a bumper.
Mr.. Montgomery sowed 800 acres to
wheat last fall and this spring, when
he visited the farm, ne found that the
winter had been very severe on his
craving crop. The wheat in many
places looked as if it mad been en-
tirely frozen out, yet he resolved but
eighty acres in the spring. His crop
was harvested last week and yielded
on an average of twenty-five bushels
to the acre. Mr.. Montgomery says 1t
is as fine wheat as he has ever seen,
the berry being large and plump and
the grain having fine color. He says
it will test No. 1 grade.
The farmers in the wheat belt In
Franklin county, Mr.. Montgomery
says, will be on easy street this year,
as nearly everyone will have a good
crop and the price of wheat promises
to be very satisfactory. The larger
part of this country has not been un-
der cultivation more than five years.
Mr.. Montgomery has raised but two
crops of wheat on his land.-Pendle-
ton Tribune.

Life insurance costs too much by far
In America. This is the great lesson
of the Equitable scandal. The public
may demand that state or nation run
the insurance business. In Germany
the governments industrial insurance
is run at cost for administration Of
only Z per cent, Of the receipts, in
England the cost is only 8 per cent of
receipts in the government 8 ordinary
life insurance, but in the average
American company it is "a per cent.
Out of every dollar paid for life in
surance in this country "a cents goes
for expenses, while government insur-
ance in England is run at one-fourth
this expense. America may well
take a lesson in life insurance from
Germany and England. It is too
sacred an institution to be allowed to
continue without suitable regulations
in the interest of the insured.
