Man Looking Over p, l., S. Co Lands
And Sllyles irrigation Project

r. Ulrich, a Seattle man, spent
a portion of this week in this
section looking over the p. l., s.
Co. land holdings and inspecting
the Silver creek irrigation pro-
iect being promoted by Messrs.
Mcconnell, Cole Eros, and asso-
ciates. Mr.. Ulrich secured much
information and data on the
Pacific Live Stock holdings and
also visited the Silvies valley
reservoir site. He discussed the
possibility Of purchasing the big
land holdings Of the company
with Assistant Supt Holland and
intimated that he might secure
capital to buy the land and also
take up the Silvies Valley irriga-
ton scheme that would control
the water and irrigate the great
Harvey Valley. This is a pro-
iect of much magnitude and
should Mr.. Ulrich succeed in in
teresting capital it would mean
great things for this section.

nounced the conditions under
which the Prairie City ball team
would come to Burns and partici-

celebration. The local fans have
got busy and with the aid of their
friends will make arrangements
and it is now practically sure
that we will have two of the best

lar attraction during the celebra.
tion and we may look forward to
big time.

The farm is the stomach of
the nation, starve it and the
nation dies. Land without pop
ulation is a wilderness; popula-
ton without land is a mob. Our
only way to get back to a sound
normal basis is to get back to
the farm. The people must
get back to the land; the unnatur-
al, wicked, killing condition
which allows great centers to be-
come congested with non-produc-
tive citizens, while the country
starves, must be done away with.
