The Wild Rose Times in its last
issue had four half-tole cuts of the
trout ponds connected with the State
Hatchery and Writeup of the pres
ent improvements made and those
contemplated We were very much
interested in the article and glad to
read of the particulars connected
herewith. We want to visit these
grounds some day and note the site
and surroundings selected by the
state authorities. From this article
We judge they made no mistake in
locating this hatchery at Wild Rose.
There is something about the State
Hatchery for trout that causes
a broad smile to creep over the face
of a lover of trout fishing when he
thinks of the little beauties that are
Matched here to tempt his hook and
line when the open season comes
along. The thought of this pleasure
always provokes a smile.

ence committee is to take advice
from the President. Il have not
heard Of any such program was
the reply. These same manufacture
ers have been appealing to Aldrich.
Some place they got an erroneous
idea that this government is repre-
sentative. They believed the reports
to the effect that the President is
to have great influence with the con-
ference and that the bill will be made
over in conference. No such thing
will happen. That is it will not
happen upon the schedule which
affect the weekly housekeeping bills.

TWO NEW OFFICES
J. A. Gaynor has Been Appoint
ed to One of Them.

The appointment of J. A. Gaynor
as divorce counsel for Wood county
has been filed by Judge Webb in the
office of the clerk of the circuit
court. This is a new office that was
created by chapter 323 of the laws
Of 1909. Under this law the divorce
counsel will take part in all actions
brought i'll the county to affirm or
annul a marriage, or for divorce. His
fees will be $40 for each case, the
same to be paid by the county; pro-
vided, that when any case shall oc-
oupy more than one day of his time,
the court may in its discretion, re-
quire the parties to the action, or
either of them, to pay such addi
tional compensation as the justice
of the case may require.
Another office is awaiting some at
torney of the county, and the same
will be given out as soor as Judge
w. J. Conway decides whom to ap-
punt. All dmSuuuSul W Tie lH1Sl l.
lance tax law makes it incumbent
upon all county judges to appoint
public administrator.
The duties of the office are the
appraisal and settlement of estates
with the view of collecting the in
heritance taxes. The fees of the ad
ministrator will be from l to 20 per
cent of the value of the estate, the
amount of the fees being determined
by the nearness of kin of the bene-
ficiary of the will to the testator.
The closest relationship between the
two will permit the administrator to
collect only 1 per cent, while if the
legatee is no relation whatever, the
fees of the administrator will be
20 per cent. The sum of $4,000 is
exempt, however, from the collec-
ton of the fees.

a Stalwart, than one we know to be
neither, and very uncertain on any
public question. Geo. P. Hambrecht,
present member of the Assembly
from Wood county, is pronounced in
his position and we know he voted
for Senator Stephenson, but he was
open and above board about it and
gave his reasons for so vot-
ing. We have always known
Hambrecht to be square, clean
man both in business and politics. If
he should prove to be Congressman
Morse's opponent we shall be glad
to say and do all we can for him as
against Mr.. Morse. This will be
true of our position towards any
good Stalwart as against Mr.. Morse
If he (Morse) is not a candidate then
We shall be glad to support and help
a good Progressive Republican that
may come into the field. We re-
spect a man, even though he differs
with US, who believes that he stands
for principle and right. We detest the
shifting disposition and traits of char
acter possessed by the present mem
Der of congress in this district. His
foundation is weak and vacilating
and cannot last long.

HOW LONG is FIRE KILLED
TIMBER COMMERCIALLY
VALUABLE?

How long will timber remain COM
mercially valuable after it has been
swept over by a forest fire? Tim
Der land owners as well as the Fed
eral Government are much inter-
ested in obtaining this information,
and the government has just begun
an investigation of a large number
of fire areas in Oregon and Wash
ington in order to determine if pos
sible, the length of time which will
elapse after a forest fire before the
timber deteriorates to such a con-
dition as to decrease it's commercial
value.
The agencies which cause timber
to decay and encourage the attack
of wood borers are undoubtedly in
fluenced to a greater or less degree
by the intensity Of the original fire
and the climatic conditions and al
titude of the burned areas.
All the information in connection
with this investigation will be OBJ
tanned first hand by the Forest Ser
vice, either from government timber
land, or from private holdings where
logging operations are under way.
In this connection the Forest Ser
vice has also undertaken an investi-
cation to determine the relative
strength of green and fire-killed tim
Der. The material which is to be
tested is being sawed at the mill of
the Eastern and Western Lumber
Company of Portland, Oregon, where
it will be surfaced to exact sizes and
then transported to Seattle, where
tests will be made in connection
with the Forest Service exhibit at
the A. Y. P. Exposition.
The fire killed trees which are to
yield material for these tests were
selected by representatives Of the
Forest Service on the holdings of
the Clarke County Timber Company
of Portland, Oregon, near Yacolt,
Washington. This timber was burned
over seven years ago and represents
fairly WE'LL the average of burned
timber found in the Pacific North
west. The logs which vary from
three to four feet in diameter, were
sawed into thirty-two foot lengths.
These are being manufactured into
sixteen foot floor joists and bridge
stringers.
The results of these tests are be
ing anticipated with great interest
by Forest Service engineers and by
the lumbermen of the Northwest, be-
cause they are expecting to disap
prove the opinion generally held re-
garding the strength of fire killed
timber.

Young men, you are the architects
of your own fortunes. Rely upon
your own strength of body and soul
Take for your star, self-reliance.
Don't take too much advice-keep at
your helm and steer your own ship,
and remember that the great art of
commanding is to take a fair share
of the work. Think we'll of your
self. Strike out. Assume your own
position. Put potatoes in a cart over
a rough road, and the small ones go
to the bottom. Rise above the en-
vious and jealous. Fire above the
mark you intend to hit. Energy, in
vincible determination, with a right
motive, are the levers that move the
world. Be in earnest. Be self-reli-
ant. Be generous. Be civil. Read
the papers. Advertise your bust
ness. Make money, and do good
with it.

cred is to become a part of that in
surgent band that have been fight
ing the organization, of course not
permanently, but just for this once.
And Jim joined for once. He has
a little list, he's been running around
with it, he has forty names on it..
Every name is that Of Republican.
Every one of these Republicans, he
says, is pledged to downward re-
vision, and to the rejection of con-
ference report that does not provide
for that kind of revision.
'*Uncle joe is furious. He rec
ognizes that it will not be possible
for him to do anything if some Of
his old standbys like Tawney and
Stevens and Mann should follow the
lead of Cooper, and Lenroot and Mel
son and Murdoch and Noriss and all
of the bad little boys who are shout
ing for downward revision because
they believe in downward revision not
for politics but to do a service for
the people. Of course the Insur-
gents are happy. They recognize the
quality of the service which they will
receive from these ''for little time
Insurgents, but nevertheless they
are glad to accept it, and they are
hoping that these new Insurgents
will stick to their purpose long;
enough to get the kind of a tariff
that the country wants. If they do,
the Insurgent movement in this
Congress will have accomplished
more than it's most optimistic leader
would have predicted at any time
during the session.
The reason for this new rebellion
may be found in the attention which
is being given these days to roll
calls. When the people take a live
interest in any matter under discus
sion in Congress and the professional
politicians are convinced of it, these
gentlemen will about face at any
time and give or pretend to give
what the people demand. The people
have been studying the roll calls OF
this session. They have been writ
ing to their members. It's good
thing to write to your, member IN
Congress. If he is representing you
correctly, he'll be glad to hear from
you. If he is representing some
other fellow, he won't want to hear
from you but you talk so that he
can understand you and you may get
him to change his position. That's
what happened to Tawney and his
bunch. The people up in their dis
tricts are talking in a language which
they understand and they're going to
give heed to it, so they say, no
matter what President Taft may be
cajoled into saying. The people
know the kind of revision they want,
even if the President don't. So
Tawney and his bunch will be good
for time and if Aldrich does not
concede something, this merry ses-
sion may continue its festivities long
into August and spoil the vacation
plan for Beverly.

Fried Stuffed Eggs.

Fried stuffed eggs make delicious
luncheon dish. Boil the eggs for 12
minutes and then drop them into cold
water and remove the shells without
breaking the whites. Cut the eggs in
two through the middle, take out the
yolks and mix them with minced
chicken and ham or any savory meat
on hand, season to taste. add with salt
and pepper the uncooked yolk OF an
egg, few bread crumbs and little
butter. Minced parsley and soupcon
OF onion juice add to their flavor.
Then put the eggs together again,
pressing the sides tight-they should
not be filed SO full as to prevent this
and roll the eggs first In the white
of egg and then in bread crumbs. re-
peating the process if the surface is
not well covered. Fry in basket In
deep fat and serve with tomato sauce
and celery or parsley as a garnish.
