TWO UNFORTUNATE FIRES

The school house in the lower
Lawen district near the lake was
destroyed by fire some time dur
ing last Monday night. Miss
Leake, the teacher, went to
school but as none of the pupils
came on account of the very
cold weather, she went home at
noon. The next morning the
building was a heap of ashes.
Those on the scene first found
tracks leading to the school house
and away again. 1t is thought
some one passed and being cold,
entered the building and built a
fire, possibly not closing the
draft when leaving.
The home of G. 0. Hendricks
in the same neighborhood was
also destroyed by fire Tuesday.
The house and entire contents
were lost and it is quite a severe
blow to Mr.. Hendricks and fam
lily, especially at this season Of.
the year. Mrs. Hendricks and
the children had gone to Lawen
and Mr.. Hendricks was out feed
ing when he discovered the
house was on fire. He ran toI
the building in the hope of at
least saving some of the furni-
ture but when he opened the
door the flames met him. burning
his eyelashes and face quite
severely. Nothing was saved.
We do not know whether it was
insured or not. The building

EXPERIENCES OF A NEW SETTLER.

written by f. C. Eggleston
for the Commercial Club adver-
tising literature
Sunset Valley is the little val
ley lying just south of Wright's
Point and from Is to 20 miles
south of Burns. 1t contains
about one township, six miles
square.
The first settlement commenced
in the fall of 1906, but there were
few inhabitants until the summer
of 1907. During this year, and
the year previous, nearly every
quarter section was settled upon
by homesteaders, who went to
work at once building cabins,
clearing, plowing and fencing.
The first crops were planted in
1907. Only small patches were
under cultivation, however, but
the results were very satisfactory.
During 1908 much progress was
made and many more acres were
cultivated. Rye, wheat, oats
and potatoes being the main crop.
The many and good gardens of
this year are worthy of special
mention. One Of the settlers
took first prize at the county fair,
held at Burns, for the best dis
play of vegetables.
During the fall and following
spring several fine residences,
and a school house that would be
credit to any community,
were built. In 1909 MANY more
acres were placed under cultiva-
ton, orchards were set by many
and Improvement of different
kinds is continually under way
This year crops were good in
spite Of a dry season. The grain
The times-herald. [volume] (Burns, Harney County, Or.) 1896-1929, 1910-01-08

was well filled. There were sew
eral small threshings. 1t would
be difficult to make an estimate
of the amount of bushels per
acre, as much of the crop was
put up for hay. The potato
crop this year was good. The
people of Sunset feel much en-
couraged and see n bright future
for the valley. Experience and
observation teach them that
grains and vegetables can be
grown here without water by
employing proper methods of
farming.
Dog mountain, which is on the
west side of Sunset, is covered
with juniper timber, which sup
plies the settlement with fuel and
posts. There is an abundance of
bunch grass for summer and win
ter range. Very little feeding is
done here, even in winter. Only
work horses and milch cows re-
Quire it. This is an ideal place
for the milch COW and butter and

Quite an amount of
cheese has been made in Sunset
valley this year, and another

to be quite an industry. Sunset
cheese took first prize at the
county fair this fall, and several
prizes were awarded to Sunset
gardens and live stock. All gar
den products do well, including
cucumbers and tomatoes.
