RAISES RYE BY
DRY FARMING

A. NJ. Gray is in town from
Rebel Creek, near which he has
taken up half section of land un-
der the desert act. Mr.. Gray left
at this Office a sheaf of rye fully
four feet high, a sample of twelve
acres of this grain which has has
raised this year without irrigation.
Mr.. Gray says that the dry farming
experiments by number of the
settlers who have taken up land in
that part of the Quinn River
valley have proved quite successful
this year and several of them have
good stands of wheat, which will
make fine pasture. But they do
not intend to depend upon dry
farming as a means of cultivation
of their land.
The Muma and Hyatt well-bor-
ms machine will be taken to Rebel
Creek some time this summer and
wells will be drilled for the pur-
pose of obtaining artesian water. II
they fail to get flowing water
pumping will be resorted to and
the ccionists have no doubt of be
ing able to raise profitable hay anC
grain crops by irrigation from
wells, cultivating a part of theil
land at the same time by the DIR!
farming method.

PROBABLY Persisted
OR VICTIM Of
ACCIDENT

Advices coming by way of Los
Angeles state that Alfred Williams,
a well-known miner of southern
Inyo, has fallen a victim to some
accident or incident entirely out
OF the usual, as the country in
which he disappeared is a pleasure
rark compared to others which he
he's prospected over and over.
Williams left Coso Springs ten
days ago on his burro to examine
al group of claims. He was to have
returned in few days, and when
he failed to do so Domingo Etchar-
rem and another man took up his
trail. About twenty miles out they
found the burro minus the saddle
and later found the saddle in deep
canyon, but failed to discover any
trace of Williams.
AS he took supplies enough but
for few days stay, it is believed
that he persisted.
For the past fifteen years he has
prospected mainly in the Panamint
district, ranging from Wild Rose
TO Wingate Pass, his most impor.
tant finds having been in Tuba
Jail and Pleasant canyons. He was
man of good education and adj
dress, and between SIS and so years

ed to that section of the new fish
and game law which prohibits fish
ing for trout during the month Of

is more Of a luxury to fish for trout
than it is here, the real sportsman
favored a two or even three months
closed season, to give the fish a
fair chance to rest. The closed sea-

When the Saft campaign was lag

that this is the conservative East" :"

said.
But that was Borah, a hard hit
ting out-spoken man, with the train
ing of the west behind him. After he
left the University of Kansas he set
tied in Idaho for the practice of law.
He was still a young chap-he isn't
old now, for that matter-when he
learned one night that a mob at
Nampa was trying to break into the
Jail and lynch negro bootblack who
shot a policeman. Borah was living
in Boise twenty miles away, but the
bootblack used to shine his shoes
when he was in Nampa and he felt
a personal interest in the case.
The young lawyer got train made
up with two or three friends started
for Nampa. All the curtains in the

inside.
With his friends he rushed to the

c. W. Fiefeld, OF Salt Lake City,
and western manager for the Comm

last Saturday arranging to make
Mountain Home branch house for
his company. ~
He has secured land near the
foundry and work will be started at
once on the building Of ware house
and two large storage tanks They
expect to have the work all complete
and ready for business within two
months. The company proposes to
deliver oil to all parts of the city one
day each week. The day has not been
decided on. but the deliveries will be
made at least that often for the first.
This will give residents of the city
the advantage Of great convenience
in the matter Of kerosene and gaso-
line. There will be no delay through
shipping from Nampa, and the freight
from that point will be entirely ell
minated.
This is Mr.. Fairheld's first visit to
Mountain Home and he was great
ly impressed with Mountain Home
and its future promises. He recog-
nizes our many natural advantages
and it was because of our prospects
that he saw fit to place a branch
house at this point.
The business here will be handled

thousands Of school children Of the
city will add to the program Of the
Portland Rose Festival to be held
here the week of June 5-10. This
public street procession will supple
ment another strikingly elaborate
spectacle, also of historical purport
which will take place on the new
MuItnomah Club Field.
These two events will be novelties
which will be a part of the continu-
Gus program for the six days in
which there will be parades, decor
ative for the daytime and illuminat-
ed for the night. All told, six such
street pageants will be given in what
is by all means solidest and heaviest
week of pastime, AMUSEMENT, enter
tainment and education ever held in
the Pacific northwest If not in the
west.
No like celebration has been favor
ed by the railroads with such gener-
Gus rates and combination of selling
rates. This applies both to through
transcontinental fares and rates from
points in the Northwest.
The Rose Festival visitor will have
the opportunity to any number of side
trips and in fact, many inquiries
have been received at Festival head
quarters from all parts of the coun-
try indicating that a goodly number
Of easterners expect to see all they
can of the matchless scenic beauties
of this territory as we'll as to look
for desirable investments.
Even New Englanders and people
from the south are making such in
quiries.
OF special Importance will be the
Festival rates this year because with
a 9O-day return limit. the easterners
will be able to spend that time on
che coast, seeing the Rose Festival
in Portland in June and the Astoria
Centennial celebration in August.
Never before have the communities
OF Oregon had such an opportunity
fer getting the eastern friends, bus
mess men and investors interested in
local enterprises, for two such at
fractions as the Rose Festival and
the Astoria celebration are bound
to induce thousands Of strangers to
come here that would not otherwise
do so.
