May Make Change
In Ordinance

Pierre Provost appeared before the
council Tuesday evening and made
an eloquent appeal for permission to
add a practically fireproof addition
to the Fourth street bakery property.
AS the city ordinance now stands
no additions can be made to a build
ing within the city limits unless it
be built with an eight-inch wall. 1t
was the opinion Of Councilman Ware
that the ordinance as it now stands
is barrier to many Improvements
which would otherwise be made.
There are many wooden porches and
shacks hung onto the back of brick
buildings which would be torn down
and replaced by fireproof corrugated
iron porches and storerooms were it
not for the ordinance which forbids.
1t seemed to be the opinion of the
council that the ordinance governing
building should be made more elestic
so that in cases where the property
S'hNi "ioAOu W lCpldNt d WOOutu
shed or porch and could not afford
to build brick addition, or where
conditions did not justify the heavy
expense, an iron structure could be
put up. The plans of course would
have to be approved by the council as
at present.
In addition to enabling many prop
erty owners to make improvements
such change would allow the coun-
Gil to condemn many such ramshackle
porches and sheds and order them re-
placed with new ones or left down
altogether, as the expense of an iron
structure is not great
The matter was put into the hands
of the ordinance committee, who will
investigate and report at next Tues
days council meeting.

The firm of Albert Anderson &

Twohy Bros. Company for clearing
the four and one-half mile unit of
right-of-way between Wilderville and
Hays Hill on the Grants Pass rail-

portions or all of the contract were
filed with the engineers office, and
Andersons bid, which covered the

Lea Appointed

pointed A. H. Lea of Portland state
game warden yesterday. r. E. Clan
ton of Portland was re-appointed fish
warden and w. L. Finley of Portland
was appointed state biologist. All OF
the appointees coming from Portland
was an expected outcome, as game

very active on behalf of their candi-

We We're too glad to have guide and
interpreter, however, to trouble much over
details, and that days walk was begun
in better spirits than any of us had
known since starting. If we could have
seen the end!
Bo, laden with most of our goods, and
carrying them with an ease that felt to
be almost a personal insult, marched first
down the thickly forested slope that led
to the first river valley, slashing the way
open as he went with his big clearing knife
lsola came next, very pale and thin, but
with the same brave light always in her
eyes and a step that had grown more
active than ever in this last week of hard
climbing. Her dress, killed up above the
knee, was mass of rags; her head was
protected by sort of mat of plated palm;
and her hair, beginning to grow again, was
tied up in a tight bunch of curls at the
back of her head, so that the lawyer vines
and thorny-edged palm leaves should not
catch and tear it as she went.
In places like the interior of Now Britain,
you put your best man in the rear; and
Red Bob never made any bones about
classifying himself as the best of the
party.
don't know whether we We're all "fey"
or not, but the fact remains that we were
amazingly cheerful throughout that day,
and on the next one too. Bo seemed in
spite of his disclaimer, to know or guess
something about the country; for on the
second morning he led us to a place that
none of us would have found without his
help-a narrow rocky ravine that seemed
to promise nothing, but that widened out
by degrees into a deep canon, trending
toward the point of the compass where
we wanted to go, and, in that painless
land, making the best path we had en-
joyed since we started. OF course there
was a river at the bottom of the canon,
and of course we had to jump and wade,
and go round spts of land; but we got
on. BY the time it was late enough to
begin looking about for camping place,
we had covered about seven miles, ac-
cording to Red Bob,-far and away the
best days work we had done and the
settled districts, so we calculated were
no more than two days march away

While the sun is yet well above the hori-
zon, one must begin to look about, to find
some spot where there is water within
reasonable distance, where there is ground
suitable for pitching tent, and where you
can find shelter from possible storm,
without closing yourself in so much as to
be easily taken by rush of enemies
We began looking early. but no suitable
spot appeared at once. AS the sun slipped
down the sky with the dismaying speed
it always shows when you are counting
every minute of light, we looked more and
more eagerly; but still the forested slopes
that had followed on the canon continued,
and still there was not place where one
could have pitched tent. just as Red
Bob was making up his mind, think to
camp on slope rather than to go on any

Isola like Sabine wife or a sack of pota-

Gore had fired as he ran-I don't know

forest, and made for it. 1t was track; at
any other moment l should have thought
of what the track meant, and avoided it,
or at least followed it cautiously. But
you can not be cautious with herd of
furious buffalo galloping at your heels. l
made along the track as fast as could,
through the growing gloom of the sun
set; saw rocky cliff rise up in front of
me; noticed that it had steps hewn in the
rock, scrambled up the steps like mon
key (they were not exactly on the pattern
of a villa staircase), and found myself,
with Bo behind me, on the top of the
rocky plateau, and right in the heart of
the one thing we had been trying to avoid
all along-a New Britain native village.
At first the buffaloes continued to oc-
cupy my thoughts. l looked down,
and saw that the herd had gone "och ling
and trampling by, and also that there was
no possible means by which they could
get up the rock, which seemed to me a
natural fortress of very high order.

with jump of the heart, that we We're ain

Over the prairie country sheep will
eat off grass and shoots of larger
brush and plants, leaving the ground
so bare Of protection that insects
either will not congregate there or
gain protection there after the pas
turing is done. In the east, where
trees, bushes, and brambles enter in
to consideration, if this brush is clean
ed off in spring the sheep will in late
fall dispose of the young growth that
may push up through the summer.
By herding the sheep along the road
sides and properly shifting them
about according to conditions in the
fields, all of this waste ground can be
made to yield a return to the owner,
and incidentally add to the value of
the farm.
On account of their light weight,
sheep can be pastured in fields when
the ground would be too wet for the
heavier animals. Their small feet,
entomologists find, are also more eff
fectual in destroying insects on the
surface of the ground than the hoofs
of larger animals.
The list of dangerous pests that
winter along neglected roadside mar
gins is long and formidable. The
chinch bug, the spring grain aphis,
or green bug" and the clover and

Insect Pests Destroyed by Sheep and
Useless Vegetation Turned Into
Mutton and Wool

That many insect pests are pro-
tected during winter by useless vege-
tation along the country roadsides,
and that the insects may be destroyed
and the underground may be turned
into valuable mutton and wool, are
facts not generally realized by farm
ers. The departments specialist in
charge of cereal and forage-insect in
designations recommends the pastur-
ing of flock of sheep in these places
during the winter months as a most
valuable measure for destroying great
numbers of insects that might later
in the spring spread to and breed in
adjoining fields of grain. Where weeds
are outside of a fence, or where no
crop is growing in the field, pasturing
sheep in summer will, of course, keep
down the fall crop of insect-harboring
vegetation.
The amount of land covered by use
less matted vegetation growing along
ditch banks, fences and roads is of
no small extent in America. This land,
as a rule, can not be burned over be-
cause of the danger to fences. Be
sides, much of the comman blue grass
thriving in such localities is always
too green to burn and serves to pro
tect the thick mulch of dead grass
that accumulates beneath from year
to year and forms an ideal refuge fol
all manner of pests. A small iocE
of sheep, given the range of fields anC
roads at this season of the year anc
where there are no growing crops
will dispose of nearly all useless
vegetation. Only a little grain neeC
be added to fatten them. If the farm
er does not wish to keep the sheer
permanently, he may often purchase
feeders" in carload lots at the larg'
stockyards when they are just in con
dition to be fattened and later dis
pose of them
