SUBSCRIPTION RATES.
THE PROMISED LAND.

r. G. Calvert, staff cores
pondent of the 0regonian who
toured this section with Louis w.
Hills party, wrote his paper from
the p. Ranch, Among the inter
esting things he said of this
Promised Land" as he calls il
we take the following:
The topography of Bitten val
ley and the country directly sur
rounding Burns, is adapted more
to north and south than east
and west railroad line, and it is
VIM. Hanley's idea that the
country could best be served and
a railroad profit most by the con-
struction of a line from Winnie
mucra, New. northward through
the center of the state and down
the John Day river. Either this
plan will be followed or branch
lines built from an east and west
line that will pass south Of Burns
and north of the Bitten Valley.
That the Hill system will build
an east and west line is almost
beyond question. Mr.. Hill told
the people of Burns that their
building into the country was up
to Mr.. Hanley. their representa-
tive in this district, and that he
did not think Mr.. Hanley would
go back on bis home town. Ore
gon Trunk Line surveyors have
been working eastward from
Bend for several months and an
other party has been working
westward from Ontario and is
now in the vicinity of Malheur
Lake.
The possibilities of the country
with railroad development are
almost bewildering and the Won
der is that it was not served by
railroad transportation years ago.
Now tributary to Burns in the
Silver Creek and Harvey Valleys
are 500. 900 acres of tillable lands,
most of which may be irrigated.
-Four miles from Burns is the
Hanley home ranch, which is
typical of the country. In the
home ranch there are 5000 acres
on which nothing is grown but
wild hay. This land has abun-
dant moisture and produces about
one ton of hay to the acre annual
ly. 1t would grow immense
crops of wheat or alfalfa, but now
the productive qualities of the
soil are devoted only to that
which can be fed to stock. With
no rail transportation there is no
inducement to the ranchers to
grow much of anything that can
not be driven out of the country
on foot. 1t is a typical country,
with cattle, sheep and horses
ranging on the mountains and
hills in the summer and winter
ing on the hay and grass in the
valleys. Some of the ranchers
have put out small orchards and
are producing for home consump-
ton apples, plums and apricots. |
Others are growing wheat and !
oats in limited quantities, selling
what is not fed to stock to the |
grist mill at Burns.
The valleys have a kind of |
natural irrigation as rule. |
which in the meadow lands is
more or less Of spring overflow. !
Yet experiments that have been
made with alfalfa on lands not
subject to overflow have brought
unexpected returns. In the draws
and valleys in the surrounding
mountains the establishment of
reservoirs is possible and
of thousands of acres

BRI0UETTING FUEL.
Plan by Which tho Waste From Mines
May Be Utilized.

May Be Utilized.
While the United States has been
more fortunate than European coun-
tries In the amount Of good bitumlnous
and anthracite coal which II possesses,
still the time is not far distant when
the American people must realize that
II the price Of coal Is not to reach such
high figure that the industries Of the
United States cannot compete with
foreign industries we will have to be
more careful OF what Is now wasted
In the process Of mining. and then we
may look for the general adoption OF
briquetting as partial solution Of the
problem Of mine waste.
Briquetting schemes have failed In
certain instances In the past because
they were not under proper technical
supervision or the supply OF raw fuel
or binder was uncertain or poor judg-
ment was shown In the location Of the
plant to supply markets already sup
piled win good fuel at low prices
Most Of the briquetting plants in Eu'
ropean countries are located at the
mines and are owned by the mine op-
orators, so that they may utilize the
waste from the mines in the case OF
the hard fuels or can make low grade
fuels such as llgnites into briquets
without transportation charges having
been paid on the raw material.
Success in the fuel briauetting IN
dustry In the United States will only
be attained when American mine OPP
orators become sufficiently interested
in this method OF utilizing their mine
waste, or. In case Of llgnites, making
a good fuel from inferior raw material.
to install complete briquettlng plants
at their mines. With proper equip
ment and superintendent plants so
located should be good investment
