All eyes are turned on South
eastern Oregon, aptly termed
''The last frontier on the last
great west" 1t seems almost
incredible that such a vast terri
tory as this, where the soil is SC
fertile and where there are SO
many streams and suitable res
ervoir sites, should have remain
ed virgin so long. Of course,
the one great drawback has been
the lack of transportation facili-
ties, but the Boise Winnemucca
road, the Lakeview branch to-
gether with the one from On
tario to the coast through South
ern Oregon will bring in crowd
of homeseekers who will trans
form these sagebrush basins into
fertile farms. A good many
people have discerned the signs
and are coming in, but the
greater rush will not take place
until warmer weather makes
homesteading more endurable. -

AT a recent meeting of the
Burns Commercial Club the mat
ter of permits on the forest re-
serve for fuel was discussed and
the secretary asked to take 1t up
with the forest officers. 1t seems
the policy of the ranger has been
to issue free use permits for dead
timber only. This ia what local
people objected to since the avail
able dead timber is becoming
scarce.
Supervisor Bingham referred
the matter to the chief at Port
land showing conditions and re-
commencing amore lenient policy
with the result that ranger Camp
bell Of this place has been given
permission to issue permits where
warranted for mature living tim
Der.
In his letter the chief states
that only where it is really nee
essary should such privilege be
given and the ranger should know
certainly the applicant was en-
titled to it.

SAGE BRUSH THE SAVIOR,

Recently the Silver State pub
lished an article ON utilizing
sagebrush by distillation. The
suject will interest every Neva-
dan, some more than others. If
1T only solved the question of
light, heat and power, by cutting
the expense of these necessities
more than half in two. it would
go a long way towards lifting
Nevada from a pitiable depend
ency upon the oil trust and rail-
roads. 1t is possible that be-
fore another winter a great part
of Nevada need not import one
gallon of oil or gasolene or a ton
of coal. Denatured alconol to
take their place, made in Ne
vada," largely out of useless
waste.
A Winnemucca citizen, well up
in science and quick to grasp a
good idea, has been carefully in
vestigating the manufacture Of
denatured alcohol from raw ma
terials in Nevada and quick
growing plants. The industry,
while affecting every family and
every business in the state can
not become a monopoly or trust,
for a few families can combine
and own 4 still, or even one fam
lily can own a small still, with no
governmental supervision, and at
odd times manufacture alcohol
for lighting. cooking and heat
ing at small cost. If there
should be a surplus, it will read
lily sell at good prices. If on the
ranch or in town pumping Of
water is desirable, alcohol is a
better fuel than oil or gasolene,
and costs to manufacture about
one-fourth what it costs to buy
oil or gasoline. In domestic use
it is well to know that it has few
Of the lurking dangers Of oil and
gasoline. If from a leaky pipe
or otherwise a fire should occur
water viii instantly extinguish
it, while water spreads and adds
to the combustion Of oil and gas

Judge Webster will speak all
over Oregon on good roads, and
he knows how to give more in
formation about that subject than
any farmer can remember.
While he is doing so the farmer
wants to remember that the
heaviest burden of building good
roads will rest on the man who
is making use of his land, and
the vast stretches of idle land in
this state are what makes the
roads so poor. -Ex.

cites and villages, the Michigan
Knights of the Grip, in their con-
vention here declared war on the
firms that sell their goods through
the medium of Uncle Sans post
office department. The resolu-
ton says:
I'VE concur that if done along
logical lines, though common
sense and good reason, consumers
should be informed that the value
of their farms depends to Il GER
tain extent on the nearness of
the farms to n good live town
and that any agricultural town
depends for its prosperity on the
support of the consumers.
Further the consumer should
be educated to the fact that a
continual support of mail order
houses means the anihilation of
the hustling village and towns
which on an average today pay
about 80 percent of all taxes. If
they succeed in destroying these
towns and villages the consumer
must pay this extra tax and
charge it, prorata. to the cost of
mail order goods. "

The importance of regulating
the water supply is becoming
more apparent to the land own
ers Of this section each season.
To get best results it is necessary
to use water with judgement
and the method of flooding even
the wild meadow has been found
to be detrimental. The proper
distribution of the waters of this
county will come about naturally
in the course of time, but we
should hasten the time for the
benefit of all. A careful obser-
vation of the effect of irrigation
should convince all that too much
water is being used by those
who have the good fortune to
have it to use.

Demand for telephone service IS

manager of the Consolidated Telephone
company. SO fast is the Consolidated
receiving orders for phones that a new
installing crew is now being formed
and viii be put to work next week
Ten new contracts, on the average
are coming to the Consolidated office
every day. The two installing crews
now employed can put in only eight
phones day, and naturally the work
has fallen a little behind.
All the new instruments being in
stalled are fitted with the latest type
of electric arresters. Sneak current at
tachments are also being placed on all
lines. This attachment is to prevent
the connections of instruments being
burned out when current from some
outside source reaches the wire. In
stead of the current running back to
the central office and to the instru-
ment. 1t is conducted iato the ground.
