Oregon Leads in Forestry.

OreEon's supremacy in all the
branches OF forestry is very eloquently
set out by the announcement of forestry
awards at the Lewis and Clark Exposi-
tion, made public by Exhibits Director
Henry E. Dosch. With a score of COM
. stito and at least one state intent up.
on carrying away the greater part OF the
aw ards. Oregon exhibitors succeeded in
carrying away more awards than al the
Others combined. The official award
list shows O 'eg On to have a total of SO
awards to its credit. Siyty-seven OF this
number are for gold medals, dozen
silver, seven bronze and seven diplomas
Of honorable mention.
Washington is the closest competitor.
That enterprising state entered the field
intent upon making wide swath in the
forestry department and sent the very
choicest exhibits. But Washington is
beaten by very wide margin, having
received 43 awards, OF which SO are for
gold med ais and ten for silver.
California hollis third place with Is
awards, eight OF which call for cod
medals and five for silver. Other COM
peting states loom up very small on the
award list. Louisiana stands fourth
with five awards, two gold, one silver
and two bronze. Wyoming has one
gold and one silver medal. New York,
Michigan and Colorado have ore gold
medal piece, while of the foreign COM
petitors, Queensland, Engl and and Can
ada each carried away one god medal.

the rec amation fund has been expended
on any irrigation work in Washington,
and the only benefit Oregon seems
ikelv to receive for some time to come
is her share of the 81 100000 which has
been set aside for Klamath.
Meanwhile, it is to be noted that Ne
vada, which contributed only $685. ,OOO,
has been allotted nearly $3000,0 900; Ari-
zona, which contributed $50. 900, is
benefting to the extent of s. 600 900;
Wyoming, which contributed 81, ,250,-
900, is to receive the immediate benefit
of 81, 600 900, and several other states
are benefciaries to much greater ex-
tent than they have been contributors.
These works are being built at the ex-
pense of such states as Oregon and
Washington. Now, when there is
shortage ia the fund, due to overalot-
