TO WORK TOGETHER
FOR COMMON GOOD
COMMERCIAL CLUBS OF CENTRAL
OREGON FORMING DEvEL.
oPMENT LEAGUE.

Portland, May 2-To form a Gen.
trail Oregon Development League,
that shall be a wheel within a wheel,
to work for the advancement of
that particular part of the state, is
the latest project along publicity
lines. Secretary G. c. Chapman, of
the Oregon Development League, has
been at work the past week formula
ting plans for such an organization
and the Prineville Commercial club
will probably issue a call soon for
a conference of the commercial bod
les of Central Oregon on the sub
ject.
1t Is expected that Madras, Metol-
ius, Redmond, Bend, Prinevelle and
other Central Oregon cities will unite
under one head to work together for
the interests they all have in COM
mon and that great deal will be ac-
complished in settling the vacant
lands of the interior. 1t is hoped
to unite various factions by this
means and create brotherhood of
active communities that will mean
much for the future of the entire
region.
May /, always notable date in
Northwest history, was observed this
year with appropriate exercises at
Champoeg, upon the historic ground
where 6S years ago the foundations
of civil government on the Pacific
coast were laid. The Oregon Pio-
neer association and the Native Sons
of Oregon had charge of the observ-
ance of the anniversary.
The cutting of burned cedar poles
has become quite an industry in
Coos and Curry counties. Last year
an experimental order was given for
the burned over piling by the Sam
Ia Fe railroad. The timber was
found to be satisfactory and there
Is big demand for it. There are
large quantities of burned over ce-
dar in the forests of the Coast coun-
ties and it has been found still SER
viceable even 40 years after the trees
were killed by fire.
A new alignment of good road
forces was made during the past
week at meeting In Portland when
steps were taken to organize state
wide good roads association with
county branches. The former Oregon
Good Roads association was dissolv-
ed, after all Its affairs had been
wound up. By means of the new or
ganization 1t is expected to secure CO.
operation throughout oregon to ac-
complish Its objects. Sentiment for
good roads legislation will be
aroused.

WALLoWA WON GAME.

Wallowa baseball nine won from
Enterprise, at Wallowa, Sunday, by
score of 10 to 6. Herbert Cheno-
weth, an Alder Slope lad, essayed
to pitch for Enterprise and did well
for his first time out, but lasted
only five innings. Arthur Pace fin
ished the game in the box for En-
terprise. The regular pitcher, Bill
yeu, was without practice and could
not take his position on the mound,
but played in the outfield and on
first base. viii Bauer, the regular
catcher, was absent and the receiv-
ing was done by his kid brother
Joe, who did nicely for his first game
with the 'big uns." Jimmy Hayes
pitched for Wallowa.

Portable Shelter
For Young Lambs
Omar StubbIefield's Movable She'd
Water Scarce In Canyons
Below Zumwalt.

-Zumwalt, May 1-Spring here at
last. The past week has been warm
and pleasant and fall sown grain
coming out much better than at first
expected; but rains are needed on
the ranges as the water Is drying up
very rapidly.
One of the most convenient and
practical methods for the protec-
ton of young lambs on stormy days
is the portable sheep shed erected
Wednesday by Omer Stubblefield
assisted by Fred Calvin, promis-
ing architect and designer of En-
terprise. This shed Is composed
Of large tent stretched over a
light frame bolted upon skids; light
yet substantially constructed. 1t can
be drawn by two horses to any part
Of the range necessary for the pur-
pose, and will provide ample shell
ter to all the young lambs that
come ON cold and stormy days.
]. e. Lord arrived here from Enter.
prise to gather up his horses and
look after his farm interests.
G. F. Graves with his family and
brother Mark came out from Snake
River Friday with number of horses
and milch cows, passing through here
to his ranch on Elk creek where he
will reside during the summer.
R. F. Stubblefield returned to
this section of the county after an
absence of several days.
Charles Boswell has moved his
sheep out of Fence creek on ac-
count of scarcity of water and will
finish lambing at the headquarters
ranch on top.

School Boys Can
Make Trapnests
No Patent On o. A. c. Model, Best
and Simplest Ever
Used.

Corvallis, May 1-Prof. Dryden OF
the o. A. c. poultry department has
just received a request from Will
liam j. Standley, supervisor Of man
ual training at the Holiday school
of Portland, for the plans and spec
ifications of the trapnest which Prof
Dryden designed and included in the
college exhibit at the Seattle expo
sition.
"The Lents and Arleta section OF
Portland are very much interested
in the chicken business" says Mr.
Standley, 80 1 will start the boys
of the manual training department
making chicken furniture. The trap
nest shown by your college at the
Seattle exposition was very good
model. VIII you kindly let me have
sketches or drawings?'
Though scores OF trapnests have
been invented and patented, not all
have been as thoroughly tested as
the one originated by the college
which is not patented, so anyone may
get the plans and build one without
fear of prosecution. 1t is extreme
ly simple in construction, and can bt
made by any one who can use a saw
and drive a nail. The whole thint
can be cut from one board foo
wide, ten feet long and an inch thick
The trapnest Is In the form OF {
box open at one end, with a doc
which closes as the hen enters. AT
ter she has laid, she Is released b,
an attendant who takes the numbeI
on her leg band and marks it on thu
egg. Thus the owner may know
which hens are the ones that la.
the eggs, so he can eliminate from
the flock those which do not la.
enough to pay for their care.

IMPROVEMENTS AT HOT LAKE.

Despite the alleged fact that vari-
Gus newspapers and news associa-

tempted by the use Of printers ink
to close oHt Lake sanitorium, the
place continues to do business at the
old stand, and improvements are con-
stsntly being made.
At present a force Of men are en-,
gagged in laying new steel six-ineh
water main from the present pump
ing plant to the 100000 gallon ce-
ment reservoir, and engineers are
doing the location work for the con-
struction of a. gravity water system.
This means that several small springs
which for years have been allowed to
90 embarrassed, will be brought to
the sanatorium and made to furnish
water for that institution
Another mineral spring is also be-
ing installed In the beautiful office
lobby.
Business at the Hot Lake Sanator-
ium never ceased for one moment. No
receiver was appointed, neither is
there any possibility of Hot Lake San

will receive the same kindly care and

ON PROBATION.
Wife Beater, Aged 22, Saved from Jail Sentence Because His Support is Needed by Family.

In the police court Wednesday morning Mary Mershalski appeared with swollen lips, a black eye. flowing tears and with an infant in her arms. She told the court that since her mar riage to John Mershalski about a year ago her life had been a most miserable one Her husband refused to work and while at home appeared to derive great pleasure in beating her. He hit her a number of times Tuesday which accounted for her appearance in court. She said that she was without money and was Tn need of a great many arti- cles for herself and baby that he would not buy She claimed that he had told her repeatedly that he would kill her some one of these days.
 The accused had nothing to say for himself except to make a flat denial that he had given her the black eye, but did admit that he had struck his wife in the mouth. Judge Arnold said that if it was not for the fact that the woman needed his support for herself and child he would send the man to Jail; but in view of the conditions he imposed a sentence of thirty days in the county jail and a fine of S5 and costs, amounting to $11.60 to be paid. The accused was then placed on proba- ton for six months. The court told the mother to notify either the chief or the probation officer if her husband again assaulted her, and then her hus- band would not be leniently dealt with hy the court. Mrs. Mershalskfs con- dition was such that she had to ride to court in a carriage. MershalsAi is but g years old.
