BIRCH CREEK FOLK
MOURN FOR LACK
OF NEW BRIDGE
(East oregonian Specially

RIETH, Sept 15.-The people OF
the Lower Birch Creek valley
were greatly surprised to learn
that Bridge Builder Gefeke had been
ordered by the county court to make
immediate preparations to remove his
outfit and crew to other bridge work
in the county. II is understood that
for some reason the building of the
bridge at this place has been indefi-
nitely postponed and that the long
looked for relief for this Isolated dis
trict has gone overheard and that the
question of school privileges for the
children of this locality Is again un-
settled With the increased need of
the railroad for their bridge and
trackage along this line 1t is believed
the company will forbid the use of
the bridge as a public crossing for
school children.
The rural mail route so badly need
ed cannot possibly materlalize with
the bridge building abandoned.
The question Of right Of way for
road to approaches on the south side
Of the river, we are Informed, has
never been taken up with parties in
terested or such right Of way asked
for in any way, although the builders
give the impression that this is pri-
marly the reason for stopping Aho

HERMISTON. Sept. 15.-Yesterday
was field day at the Umatilla expert
ment farm. The demonstration work
was explained by NJ. W. Allen, the su-
perintendent, and Harold Dean, ms
assistant. The best methods arrived
at through the large number OF expeF-
iments conducted through the past
few wears were recommended TO the
ranehers. The principal efforts OF
the station have been directed toward
the most economical use OF water on
the porous soils OF the project with
the view OF increasing the production
OF alfalfa through the use OF less wa
ter more copiously applied at shorter
intervals. This has resulted in an
increase Of yield and a use of smaller
volumes Of water. The student OF ir-
rigation practices Was well repaid
for the afternoon spent at the farm
The large attendance of ranchers
shows that the ranchers are keenly
alive to the advantages Of improved
methods of irrigation. BY the newer
methods It will be possible to pro-
duce alfalfa at much lower labor
cost.
The subjects as they were demon
strated we're as follows:
/ Determination of loss Of water
from over irrigation and the amount
oi water used IN support of crops,
also amount Of plant food lost by
teaching of surplus .water
2. Frequency OF irrigation influ-
encing production OF alfalfa. One
two and three week intervals were
demonstrated The two week inter-
val determined as the best in result
considering the amount of water
used and the labor involved in the
WORK Vi producing Alfalfa CONNER

In various methods of applying water
to crops shows the advantages of

"A Floury Fate
44sS$i44gl5t 4s9448S

The following good diversion deals
with mystery and is therefore popu-
lar at Christmas. 1t is provocative of
great merriment and interest, though
very simple in plan.
Flour, in which there are a ring. a
coin and a button, is pressed firmly into
a mold, and then the form or loaf
thus obtained is carefully deposited
upon the table. Each one seeking to
know his fate or fortune takes the
large dinner knife provided for the
game and carefully cuts into the mound.
If he strikes one Of the articles in the
-four it must be extracted and exam
ined. because. whichever it may be, it
is significant and determines whether
he is to be bachelor or benedict, rich
or poor. The maiden in this way also
learns whether she is to be "all for
lorn" all her life or whether she will
marry money or learn to sew her bus
bands buttons on herself to save tai
lors' bills and keep the wolf from the
door. A master of ceremonies can
very entertainingly, If properly select
ed, assist the finder Of his fate in fully
reading it to the audience.
Sometimes imagination is heavily
taxed to sustain story for the time
set, and to a listener not understand
ing what it is all about there might be
a suspicion that he was in a company
of incipient lunatics.
