IRRIGATION PROJECT
IN DESCHUTES BASIN

Salem, Or, Dec. 2S.-Plans and
estimates of cost of irrigating 200.-
coo acres of land in the upper De-
schutes River basin are embraced in
a report to be issued soon by John
I, Whistler and E. G. Hopson, of the
Federal Reclamation Service, and
State Engineer John H. Lewis.
The land, according to the report,
can be reclaimed in four units, and
all of them must look for their water
supply to two reservoirs, one to be To-
Gated on the Deschutes River at Ben
ham Falls. Is miles south of Bend,
and the other to be located at Crane
Prairie, on the West Fork of the Des-
chutes. The estimated cost of the
first reservoir is 1891, 900, and that
for the second 1852, 900. The cost of
irrigation will run from $3S to $50
an acre.
The north unit embraces $4,000
acres in the VICINITY Of Gateway. Mad
ras, Metolius, Culver and Opal City,
and will cost $~5,519,O00. The west
side unit consists of 2O,352 acres
which adjoins the Tumalo project,
and will cost $S31,5OO. In the east
side unit there are $4,000 acres. and
the total cost will exceed $1,000, 900.
The south side unit embraces 4S,46O
acres, and the cost is estimated at
S2,929,000.
The state and the United States
Reclamation Service are cooperating
upon a dollar-for-dollar basis in the
preparation of plans and estimates of
the cost of a number of projects, and
reports on a number of them will be
announced in the future.

FRANK RECEIVES STAY
L. s. Supreme Court Extends Aid
to Man Sentenced to Hang
January %.

At Washington, d. c., on Monday
Supreme Justice Lamar granted the
application of Leo Frank for a re-
view of the latter's conviction on a
charge of numbering Mary Phagan
at Atlanta, Ga. Justice Lamar's &C
ton automatically stays the execu-
ton of Frank, set for January % by
a Georgia court.
The Georgia authorities we're ex-
pected to urge the supreme court to
advance the case and expedite its
final disposition.
Justice Lamar's opinion held that
it was proper to consider Franks
contention that his constitutional
privileges we're violated by his alb
sence from the courtroom when the
verdict was returned. He held this
was a federal question on which the
supreme court was qualified to pass.
This case has become Of nation
wide interest because of the fact that
there was so fragrant a miscarriage
of justice, and Frank was being rail-
roaded to his death seemingly
through a frenzy worked up over
the atrocious murder. A calm and
impartial review of the evidence up
which he was convicted may be the
of revealing the true muir
derer.

FRIGHT AND SWIMMING.
Cramp Is Not Dangerous if Bathers
Only Keep Their Heads.


The widest publicity should be given
to DR.. WelZmiller's advice to the West
Side Y. NJ. C. A. that it Is fright. not
cramp, which browns many swimmers
each summer. Cramp alone is innocent.
This is DR.. WelZmiller's sound and use
full rule:
when seized with cramp, swim
without using the crampy limb and,
while swimming, alternately draw up
and stretch out the limb as far as pos
sible, thus helping nature to overcome
the condition. If the cramp becomes
worse turn over and float and exercise
the cramped leg or arm as much as
possible until the pain passes"
Scarcely a long distance swimming
race is held that some competitors are
not attacked by cramp. These expert.
enced swimmers do not even stop, but
go on at lessened speed while "kicking
out" the local trouble. Yet every year
swimmers quite capable of this easy
trick become confused by the pain Of
q cranp. swallow a little water. re.
member what they have heard-that
"cramps and sudden death are synony-
mous'-and 90 down, literally fright
ened to death.
If DR.. WelZmiller's directions could
become part Of the mental habit and
instinct Of every swimmer they would
enable many a promising young man
seized with cramp to keep cool. and
that Is commonly all that is necessary
to save his life.-New York World.

Vulcanizing With L-iqht.

MUSEUM FOR THE FUTURE.
Its Contents to Be Still Perfect a Thou.
sand Years Hence.

A thousand year museum. designed
to preserve exhibits 50 nearly perfect
that they will not have changed in
appearance when shown to Americans
in 2914, is Il recent addition to the
American Museum of Natural History
in New York. Dust, light. insects and
moisture are the constant enemies Of
museum exhibits. so special storage
vaults have been built, which will
keep all four under perfect control
and in all probability preserve ex-
hibits for 1000 years. The buildings
are not expected to last for anything
like that length of time. but the sys,
tenn will do its work Of preservation
perfectly well until the time for new
vaults comes along. Dust and light
can be kept under control by constant
attention. so the real problems of ideal
preservation are moisture and insects.
The vaults have been built of con-
crete. with perfectly fitting air tight
metal doors. so that neither moisture
nor insects can get in.
In the event, however, Of insects
getting in-when the vaults are visit
ed. for instance-provision is made to
kill them off by filing the vaults with
sOEe deadly gas for a few hours -oc.
%casionally.
Exhibits that are not very exciting
now, but which will be genuine curl
osities hundreds of years from now,
are being stored-such as Indian bas.
kets, headdresses and weapons. Some
of the buckskin articles may not last
a thousand years. because the Indian
tanners did not do sufficiently perfect
work, but it is predicted that most OF
the relics will last that long in good
shape.-Saturday Evening Post.

SALTlNG SAVES TIMBER.
Instances Which Show How It Acts

Instances Which Show How It Actf
as a Preservetive.
1t was found in replacing Il recently
burned railroad trestle along the north
shore of Great Salt lake. Utah, that
the piles were sound after forty-three
years of service. These were of local
pine and fir, but We're found to have
been impregnated with lake salt.
The result of this investigation is
what started the United States forest
service on its recent examinations of
the use of salts as a pr%eservatiye of
timber. At another point on the lake
some eighteen inch piles, twenty-nine
years old. have been similarly pre-
served with salt. which has penetrated
to the center. Timbers in the South
ern Pacific railroad t~restles across the
lake, placed in 1902. appear as good
as when driven. and have been pre-
served above the water line by salt
spray dashed upon them. The first
transcOntinental telegraph line, which
was built before the first railroad, eX-
tended west from Salt Lake City
through the then prosperous mining
camps of Eureka. Austin and others.
When the railroad was built the tele-
graph line was transferred to this
right of way. and the old poles were
sawed off at the ground. A recent
examination of the butts left in the
ground in the salt desert zeal Fish
springs, Utah, showed that after the
fifty years since the poles We're cut
of the butts We're perfectly sound. 1t
has been common practice in the Salt
Lake valley to preserve poles by put
ting about seventy-five pounds of salt
in the ground around the butts.-En-

What Week End Guests Brino.

According to Harrison Rhodes ac-
count in Harper's Magazine, week end
guests in high society bring
Their own m0torcars.
Their own maids and Wallets.
In at least one case, her own boiled
rice, dried toast, Bulgarian sour milk
and other fXings, all In an especially
designed siiyer-gilt dinner pail.
Frequently their own bed linen, pill
lows and bath towels.
One lady, known to many visiting
lists, If it happens hat she is going to
exceed the week end limit, brings her
own cook and butter.
There IS 4 whisper, not to be credited
to Mr.. Rhodes, that some of these
guests bring also their own welcome.

OF curious attention in London recent
ly was a furniture show window in
Oxford street, which had been set out
by a futurist decorator MS a sample Of

orange and green cushions on a purple
sofa and a vivid green china bird to
put the finishing touch to the gloom

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.
Cancer Of the Tonnue.

That the cOmmonest cause of
cancer of the tongue, at any rate
in persons under thirty years of
age, is the irritation from sharp
, edged or cariouS teeth is proved
by statistics collected by Drs.
/, GorSe and Dupuich and quoted
in the New York Medical Rec
. ord. Thirty per cent of the cases
they studied were traceable to
this cause. Cancer of the tongue
in young persons almost always
appears as an ulcer on the Dor.
der of the tongue just where It
rubS against tile teeth. Some
times it is at the tip, The cases
in which it appears at the back
of or underneath the tongue are
rare More than 30 per cent of
these cases prove fatal within a
few months. Moral.-At the first
sign of decay or roughness Of a
tooth go to a dentist at once.
