ARIZONA IS HIS FAV0RITE
In Forty-Seven Years George Carey
Of Columbia Did Not Leave
the Territory.

Forty-seven years continuous resi-
dence in Arizona. without once setting
foot outside her borders. is believed to
be the record II was established by
George Carey of Columbia. Yacapai
county. who has just returned from a
two months trip to Los Angeles and
other coast points after living in this
territory since 1864
When Carey first came to Arizona
he was a freighter. From mining camp
to mining camp he drifted, until the
want Of lucrative business forced him
Into mining That was more than 20
years ago. but II was not until last
spring that prosperity came. He re-
ceived the first payment on some min.
ing claims that he had developed with
his own hands. and bought a round
trip ticket to California For two
months this trail blazer gazed upon
towering buildings and other modern
wonderG of which he had read. but
which he had never seen When he
passed through Prescott on his way
to Columbia he said that he had en-
joyed every minute of II. but that he
had stayed lust long enough"
Carey Is now developing some prom.
ising claims near those that he sold
and probably 1t will he several years
more before he leaves Arizona again.

BIZ KIND TO TOADS.

A pamphlet recently issued by
Secretary Wilson of the depart
ment Of agriculture pays a glow
ing tribute to the toad. Accord
ing to this high authority, few
creatures of its size have suffer
ed more from false witnesses. 1t
is not true that il causes warts,
poisons infants or spoils cows
milk, On the contrary, it has an
amiable disposition. a good sing
ing voice for those who like that
sort of thing and above all, most
commendable industry.
An able bodied toad eats $40. Al
Wholesale rates. worth of iniur-
ious worms and insects every
season. Ii is a most efficient
ultimate consumer, and it likes
best those things which the far
mer likes least. 1t is homeloving
and is very fond of children its
own children. No farmer or sub
urbanite should try to get a long
without a couple of good toads.

pertinent stations and u number
Of cooperative substations, Crook
County most assuredly should
show its interest in the enter
prise and willingness to support
il.
Harnev County, which recent
ly has inaugurated this impor-
tant development feature, is
blazing the educational trail with
splendid generosity. That en-
terprising, if isolated Cow coun-
ty" started the good work with
a contribution Of $4,000. And
now Crook County, with two out
side interests bearing the brunt
of the expense, is called upon to
contribute but $4,000. The rail-
roads are vitally concerned, as
are the Portland business inter
ests. The Oregon Agricultural
College has signifed its willing
ness and desire to direct the ex-
cellent enterprise, The Central
Oregon Development League has
gone on record as being unquali-
fiedly in favor of the scheme.
Experience wherever it has been
tried has demonstrated the value
and entire efficiency Of the plan.
And now the best, simplest and
fairest method of raising the
necessary funds is proposed. Let
every one put his shoulder TO the
wheel and rush this thing
through; for if possible the work
should be under way this season.

SPECIAL c0UPSES WANTED.

The three RS famed for their
place in pioneer public schools
will not be lost sight Of in maxi
ing out the new course Of study,
according to l.. Il, Alderman,
superintendent of public instruc-
tion Of Oregon.
The state food and dairy COM
mission wants the care of milk
after it reaches the consumer
taught in the public schools.
The state forester wants n place
given to forest fire prevention in
the course of study.
Insurance companies are re-
questing that pupils be taught
prevention of fires about build
ings.
A multitude of other good and
practical courses are being urged
Superintendent Alderman takes
the stand that the children must
know how to read broadly, to
write n good business letter and
the essentials of arithmetic.
These three things must be
taught thoroughly and all extra
time will be devotee to other
practical subjects. He is weed
ing out every non-essential and
trying to put the course on a
solid foundation. Much indus
trial work is being included.
The course will be out next
month and will be in closer har-
mony with the current needs of
the state than any heretofore

ANOTHER ELECTRIC LIGHT FRANCHISE

y James d. Fellows has secured
a 25-year electric light franchise
from the city authorities and ey-
poets to leave in n few days to
purchase the necessary machln-
cry for equipping Il high class
electric light plant. His fran
chise limits the amount he can
charge for service and he has al
ready secured large number of
contracts for lights at rates con-
siderably less than has formerly
been paid.
Mr.. Fellows states he expects to
be ready to furnish lights and
power on or before Nov. |. He
is pleased with the encourage
ment so far received and should
he furnish good service that can
be depended upon the year
around no doubt he will do very
well.

Announcement is made that
the Hartman system will aban-
don the expensive work done
from Drain toward Coos Bay and
will build a line from Eugene to
the coast at an eXpence of some
$4,000, 900. Just what will come
of this announcement is not yet
determined. They may build
but more likely not. This move
was brought about by other peo-
pie getting in shape to tap Coos
Bay. Perhaps the best way to
get the line to build up Malheur
canyon will be to start a rumor
that some of our local capitalists
intend to build a railroad.

VEHICLE LAW IN FORCE.

Tuesday the new vehicle law
passed by the last Legislature
went into effect, and.a vehicles,
buggies and farm wagons, as
well as automobiles and motor
propelled conveyances, will be
required to carry lights when
travelling upon the public roads
and streets.
The sweeping character of the
law probably has not been gen
orally understood. Little atten-
ton was paid TO it except by the
automobile men, and the bill was
usually referred to as a measure
regulating automobiles. But this
is what il says in defining the
vehicles TO which it applies:
Every moving thing except
railroad and street cars upon the
streets, roads and highways of
this state moved by power shall
be n vehicle under the terms of
this act.
Every kind of power, includ-
ing horse power, is included, as
may be confirmed by other pro-
visions Of the act. And is fixing
the requirements as to lights at
night, the new law says:
Every motor vehicle shall be
provided with adequate brakes
sufficient to control the vehicle at
all times and q suitable and ade-
quate bell. horn. whistle or other
signaling device, and shall, dur
ing the period from one hour
after sunset to one hour before
sunrise, display at least two white
lights in lamps on the front and
one red light in the rear Of such
vehicle. Said rear light shall
show white light across the
rear of the vehicle. The white
rays of such rear lamp shall shine
upon the number plate carried
on the rear of such vehicle. The
light of the front lamps shall be
visible at least two hundred feet
in the direction in which the
vehicle is proceeding; provided,
that motor bicycles or motor
cycles and all other vehicles other
than motor cars shall be required
to display but one lighted lamp
such lamp to be placed on the
front of the vehicle so that it
shall be visible one hundred feet
in the direction in which the We
hicle is proceeding, and show red
lights TO the rear. There shall
be displayed on the face Of the
lamps showing white lights the
registration number in figures
not less than one inch in heighth.
and placed thereon in such man
ner so that when the lamp is
lighted the number may be read
at distance of at least fifty feet
by a person possessing proper
eyesight."
1t Is explained that the inclu-
sion of all clasaes of vehicles
that travel the roads, including
the farmers wagon, is expected
to greatly reduce the number of
accidents. On dark nights
wagons along the road are often
not visible for a distance sufli-
cient to avoid accident when an
automobile or motorcycle sweeps
down upon them. AT the same
time the farmers of the state will
be put to considerable expense
to equip their wagons with lights
that will comply with the law,
showing 100 feet in front and
displaying a red light in the rear.
