REDIsTRICTING RESERVES.
Plans of the President Are Being Put
Into Execution.

Washington, June THE first step
toward carrying out a comprehensive
plan of redistrictlng the national for
ests in western states has just been
made by the president in signing ex-
ecutive orders effective July /, estab-
fishing the Cache and Pocatello ma
tional forests in northern Utah and
southern Idaho.
The object of this plan is to equalize
areas of administrative units and re-
arrange their boundaries in such a
manner as to promote the most eff
cient administration. No actual addi-
tion to the national forest area is in
volved in the plan.
The Cache forest will consist of the
Logan and Idaho divisions of the Bear
river national forest, and will be ad-
ministered by Supervisor Woodruff,
with headquarters at Logan, Utah.
The Pocatello national forest will con-
sist of the present Pocatello and Port
Neuf national forests, together with
the Malad division of the Bear river
forest. These areas will be admins
etred by Supervisor wrensted, with
headquarters at Pocatello. Idaho.
Under the general plan of redistrict-
ing IS new administrative units will
be established from the existing ma
tlonal forest area. The attempt is be-
ing made by the forest service to re-
duce the area of the administrative

tor.
Thomas p. Gore, the blind senator
from Oklahoma, is living In the hope
that his sight may be restored. The
senator has been blind since he was a
boy. An accidental blow from a
playmate deprived him of one eye and
soon afterward his remaining eye
failed him.
Years ago he reconciled himself to
what he considered his fate. A
Washington oculist, DR.. Wilmer, now
holds out hope to him. Since enter
ing the senate Mr.. Gore has had oc-
casion to consult DR.. Wilmer, who
has become deeply interested in his
case.
Last week the oculist suggested an
operation. He said that he was not
sure 1t would restore the senator's
sight, but that he believed it would,
Finally he decided to undergo the op-
Grafton. 1t will be performed in a
few days.
Senator Gore is regarded as very
able man among his colleagues in the
senate. Despite his blindness he par
tlclpates in all OF the senate proceed
ings. No other senator is more reg
ular In attendance, and little that is
said on the floor escapes him.

The following comprehensive re-
view of the big wheat farms OF east
ern Oregon and the practicability OF
cutting them up into small tracts, is
from the Irrigon Irigator and is wor-
thy of reproduction In the East Ore
gonian:
When It comes to talking about
cutting our wheat lands into smaller
tracts there is great deal of dust
thrown.
AS matter OF fact only an occa-
sional wheat tract is suitable for di-
versified farming, the great bulk OF
the wheat area In the section east of
the Cascades not being suitable for
the raising of fruit as a profitable in
dustry.
It is not to be supposed that the
owners of the best wheat lands In
Wasco, Morrow and Umatilla are 60
ing to dispose Of a portion of their
holdings even, and neariy every
wheat grower In that region, every
successful grower, stands ready to
snap up his neighbor's tract and add
It to his own, the moment 1t is placed
on the market.
AS to what extent this change Is
going on, we need only mention that
In Gillian, Sherman, Morrow and
Umatilla there are now so less pub
lie schools than there we're two years
ago over 80 school buildings stand
boarded up, there being no children
left in the districts.
As to how insstent the wheat
farmers are to get all Of the land
adjoining them and the prices they
will pay. we may mention that re-
Gently a gentleman owning 40 acres
of land adjoining Athena concluded
he would plat 1t into acre-lots and
offered it for $3.50 per acre, about
$50 more than the immediate land
was selling for.
He plated IT, placed It on the mar
ket and sold two of the tracts, and
the following day the gentleman own
ing adjoining farms purchased the
other 3S tracts and added them to
his wheat farm.
There is no use in inveighinA
against those men. They feel that
they have the best wheat land on
earth and they want to get just as
much of 1t as they can. 1t is only
human nature.
But in each of these counties there
is a large area of bottom land, not
adapted to wheat growing. In max
ing trip up the Heppner branch not
long ago we estimated that there were
over 5000 acres OF choice land along
Willow creek, and water enough to
take care of every acre of 1t II set
out to fruit.
Now. no man in this country
should attempt to tackle an orchard
OF over 90 acres, or at the most, 40
acres. On Willow creek at present
the holdings average at least a half
section, and II you go there to buy 10
TO 90 acres you will find you cannot
get II at anything like reasonable
price and yet If the owners would !
