The REAL VALUES
OF N. D. LANDS
COMPARISON or FARM LANDS IN
THIS STATE AND THE CHEAP
LANDS or CANADA, SHOW LAT
TER ARE DEAR AT ALMOST
ANY PRICE.

Devils Lake World: Cheaper lands
have been the means Of inducing many
good farmers in this state to sell their
lands here and remove to Canada in
the belief that better returns may be
accomplished by the cultivation OF
cheaper the land to be obtained
there but careful mathematical con-
sideration OF the subject and facts
connected Herewith reveals the fact
that under present conditions by the
cultivation Of say three acres for ex-
ample to equal amounts of wheat,
fax and barley under the same con-
ditions for ten years that the differ
ence in the prices received here for
the grain produced would net the pro-
Queer in ten years SO per acre.
This does not seem possible at first
thought but here are the facts: At
Hansboro, N. D., today large guam
titles Of wheat are being marketed
from many miles across the Canadian
border which is bought in bond at IA
cents per bushel under the price OF
North Dakota wheat, large quantities
Of fax and barley are also being mar
keted at the same point from Canada
after paying a duty of 2 cents per
bushel for fax and 35 cents for bar
ley.
The Yield Per Acre.
Wheat, Is bushels at IA cents
difference per acre ..... $2.lO
Flax. 90 bushels at 20 cents
difference per acre ......t. $500
Barley, 40 bushels at 36 cents
adherence per acre .. 400
Total for acres ... $21.OO
A trifie over an average Of 81 per
acre each year and for ten years $40
per acre and the fact that this grain
is being hauled long distance to OBJ
tain these prices is conclusive that
were it marketed at their home mar
ket the price would be yet smaller and
the expense OF hauling the grain a
long distance must also be taken into
consideration, and everything the
farmer has to buy in the way Of ma
chinery in Canada Is much higher in
price than here.
From this it would appear to us
that our lands in Ramsey county are
today better valued at $40 an acre
than the same land across the border
at nothing, and where lands are found
across the border which produce great
err yields than ours it will be found
that as well as a yet lower market
there will be found frost danger and
inconvenience to market to more than
onset the difference in yield; then
why sell your land here at any price

TARDY JUSTICE Is DONE.

A move In the right direction ia
always, as a rule, followed by satis-
factory results. For instance, Hon
orable r. @. Smith, of Grants Pass,
while Q member Of the legislature OF
1905. introduced the bill and secured
lts passage which officially connected
the name Of John Mclaughlin to the
peak which by some people was call
Cd Mt. Pitt, but by others Mt. Nc
Laughlin. Every true Oregonian
takes pride in acknowledging John
Mclaughlin, Of the Hudson Bay
company, as the father OF Oregon,
and Mr.. Smith. wishing to officially
recognise the facts In history, took
the steps necessary 10 settle the ques-
Ion for all time.
There was only one thing more
needed and that was TO have the
National Geographical board recog-
aize the action Of the Oregon legis-
latl re but, In spite of the fact that
the attention Of the chairman oi
the board was annually called to
this matter, nothing was done, and
20 for six years II has remained un-
recognized. But recently this ma
tional organization took up the mat
ter and, following the example Of
our legislature, has fixed the name
Of Mt. Mclaughlin to the noble peak,
and go the people Of Oregon win in
the long contest, and Father Nc
Laushlin comes to his own at last.

MccoRKLE'S OPINION OF THE
ALMEDA.

A. ]. McCorkle, the Montana min
Ing man, returned few days age
from Galice where he went to In
vestigate several mines and he
came back much pleased with the
rich mineral he found In that dis
trict. While there. he went through
the numerous tunnels, drifts and
down the shaft Of the Almeda. In
speaking Of this mine, he said
to representative of The Courier
on his return that he had never seen
~ large body Of ore az he found
In this wonderful mine and there
were only few things needed to
make It one Of the largest producers
on the Pacific coast. He said that
the company possesses one OF the
best opportunities to make a water
power to be found anywhere and. in
his opinion, II will be necessary to
harness It in the very near future
and when this is done 1t will be used
"a great advantage both In the mine
and the smelter.
II did not" said Mr.. McCorkle,
have the opportunity to examine the
values to be found, but everything
points to rich ore bodies and can
say that the ore itself is az hand
some as anything 10 be found In any
mining country In the world. When
the mine gets the needed transpor-
tation and the capacity Of the smelt-
Or ID enlarged, It will become a
wealth producer Of the highest mag
nitude and the people Of Josephine
county will be proud that II is locat-
ed within their borders"

JOSEPHINE coUNTY's GOLD AND
SILVER OUTPUT.

The gold and silver output OF Ore
gon for the year 1910 Is by no
means as large as 1t should be. The
figures are sS7S.76s. Josephine
county alone ought to have produced
this amount and would, had circum-
stances been more favorable in the
way OF transportation. The copper
OF the Almeda mine added to Its gold
will, undoubtedly next year reach as
high figures as those shown above,
providing the transportation question
is settled favorably and the COM
pany enlarge their smelter as they
expect to. A general advance In the
mineral output Of this county is In
order and we are of the opinion that
the showing for 1911 will be far In
excess OF that OF 1910.
The working Of the Greenback
mine. the Old Channel property and
dozen other mines, which have this
year started up. added to the produc-
ing properties Of 1910 and IL ought
to give us gold and silver output
In this county close on to a million
dollars.
Professor H. N. Parks, OF the Ore
gon Agricultural college, has issued
a bulletin which gives some inter-
esting figures, but the most aston
ishing facts presented occur In the
paragraph relating to the precious
metals. II is claimed that the gold
production fell from s1,694,700 In
1900 to s67s,4SS in 1910, a loss Of
more than 100000. Silver in
creased from s71,54S in 1900 to
s1s4,2S0 in 1910. Coal increased
from s220,151 in 1900 to s224,11s
In 1910, or a little less than $4,000,

1T HAS BEEN MILDLY COLD.

Josephine county has been passing
through a moderately cold spell, but
the mercury did not get below thirty
two above zero. The whole Rogue
river valley has been fortunate on
this occasion as the weather here
has been much milder than in any
other part OF the state. The noun

WATER RIGHT RECORDS.

The state engineer Of Oregon has
inaugurated In his office q new sys-
tenn which is calculated to keep water
right records more clearly up to date.
The plan is, that instead Of each
claimant, as heretofore, applying for
the entire stream fow, or all the
water he thinks he can use, and hav.
ing an indefinite time within which
to put II to beneficial use, the new
law provides for the limitation OF
each application as to the amount Of
water, and time for beginning and
completing work and putting the
water to use. This new law also pro-
vides that construction work shall
be commenced within one year and
prosecuted diligently to completion
within not to exceed five years. In
asmuch as proof of these facts must
be made to the satisfaction Of the
board Of control, It has been ordered
that no proof will be accepted unless
filed annually, together with final
proof, when the water has been fully
applied to use, at the expiration of
the time limit.
Printed forms for these purposes
have Just been received from the
state printer and will be attached to
each permit to appropriate water
hereafter Issued, and the applicant
will be instructed that failure to all
out and file the proper annual proof
may result In the cancellation of his
permit, after proper notice from the
board. II is also intended that all
holders Of permits heretofore issued
Will be required to make the proper
proof, so that within a few months
anyone examining the records Of the
state engineers Office can ascertain
whether or not permits outstanding
are still alive.
II was expected that the fees paid
In connection with the granting Of
these permits would discourage spec
ulatiye filings. The new system viii |
not hamper development In any way |
but will strengthen the rights Of
Legitimate developments.
This will make the irrigation sys-
tenn Of the state much nearer perfect
