at the Page Theatre in Medford re-
Gently was a tremendous success, and
nearly one thousand pounds OF pota-
toes were received at the entrance

being used for an admission ticket.
The potatoes were auctioned off at
the Page Theatre Wednesday evening
and six sacks were sold at from 81
to $40 each while several baskets of
six potatoes each sold for 81 and SO
each, The money was donated to the

Eagle Creek Camp
Ready For Season

Forest Supervisor 7. H. Sherrart
of the Oregon national forest has put
the Eagle Crock camp grounds IN
readiness for the 1917 recreation sea-
son. The water pipes have been con-
nected up so that pure running water
is available at the various camp sites,
and the comfort station has been
opened. New tables for use of camp
crs and picnickers have been built,
and a splendid parking place for ma
chimes is conveniently located near
the entrance to the camp grounds
A four-room tent house has been
erected for the temporary headquar-
ters of the forest officer who is again
on duty at the grounds
Eagle Greek camp grounds are To-
Gated on the Oregon national forest,
A miles east of Portland, on the
wonderful Columbia Highway. It is
a place of great natural beauty-a
bit of wilderness set apart by the gov
ernment for the free use of the pub
Iic. Over Is, 900 people visited these
grounds in 1916, and it is expected
that several times that number will
enjoy them this season.
The picturesque Eagle Creek trail
leads up the canyon from the camp
grounds This trail has been cleared
of the few windfalls and slides which
came down during the winter, and Is
now open for distance of four and
@ half miles
A high bridge has been built across
Eagle creek where the trail now ends,
and it is expected that the trail will
he completed to Wahtum Lake during
the coming field season. This will
open up some very attractive country
that is now inaccessible and make
possible a fine 27-mile hiking trip
from the Columbia Highway at Eagle
Creek camp grounds up the Eagle
Creek canyon and over the divide to
Wahtum Lake, returning to the High
way at Herman ranger station by way
of Herman Creek trail.
The O.-W. r. & N. company has
erected a station at Eagle Creek,
which is now a flag stop the same as
Multnomah Falls, so that parties may
visit the camp grounds by highway or
by rail.

The Bogie Road
On Billings Hill

Medford Sun: George w. Owen
county commissioner of the Ashland
district, reports that the contract with
the Southern Pacific Company has
been executed for the under-grads
crossing of that companys right-of-
way on the Billings hill; that the
deeds have been executed, also, for
the right-of-way for the new roadway
around the hill, and that the state
engineers are expected to arrive any
day to make a final survey for the
work to he done. The state highway
commission will supervise that work,
he says, and that It will be done just
as quickly as workmen can perform
the service after the final survey,
Ashland is not alone interested In
this project For two years automo-
BILE drivers, both of the tourist class
and the local contingent, each OF
which is numerous, have reviled that
particular section of the famous Pa
cific Highway. More than one man
has done violence to the Command
ments as he strained his machine to
overcome that obstacle to an other
wise delightful drive. Let us hope
that Commissioner Owen will make
it his special business to follow up
strenuously the good start he has
made on that part of our county boul-
evard.

Livestock Hit by
Late Season

Livestock conditions in the national
forest regions of Washington are
good, with fairly high lambing aver
age, according to reports received by
District Forester George H. Cecil Of
Portland, Ore. In Oregon stock con-
ditions are below normal in the ma
tional forest regions. This is due to
the unusually long feeding season.
In many sections the hay is entirely
used up.
In the Deschutes country, near the
Fremont national forest, the upper
John Day country and in. Baker coun-
| ty, Oregon, will occur the severest
losses on account of late season and
hay shortage. Most range cattle in
Oregon and Washington have come
through the winter in rather poor
condition.
To meet the emergency which ex-
lists, the supervisors of the national
forests in Oregon and Washington
have been authorized to open them
to livestock which Is short of feed
earlier than the usual date, whenever
It can he done without material in
jury to the early grasses. The forest
service will make every effort to aid
the stockmen IN saving their animals
from starvation.
Forest service reports show that
severe weather conditions are causing
heavy losses CT cattle and sheep in
the northern Rocky mountain region.
Because of unusually deep snow, con-
tinued storms and the late spring the
supply of feed in most of the region
has been practically exhausted. Hay
is now selling at $40 to $40 a ton
and it is almost impossible to get it
even at these prices.
The loss of sheep in Wyoming,
Montana, Idaho, Utah and Nevada
will, it is feared, be unusually heavy
Well posted stockmen estimate that
It may reach 20 per cent. 1t is stated
that the sheep are generally in poor
condition, and many of the bands
which came through the winter with
out losses are now beginning to suf-
fer. A ligh lamb and wool crop Is
anticipated for the whole Rocky
mountain region.
All indications are that the cattle
men have been equally hard hit. III
ports of Idaho. Montana and Wyom'
ing unusually severe losses are IN
prospect. No reliable figures are OBJ
, tainable from northern Nevada ant
Utah, but all reports agree that the
number of livestock will be greatly
reduced in those sections also.
The fact that supplies of grain ant
hay have been almost exhausted ant
the spring ranges are generally Gov
cred with snow, leads experienced
stockmen to fear that many more ami
mails will die before the situation Il
relieved by warm weather In some
regions the snow is so deep that hay
can not be hauled to the starving
stock except on hand-drawn sleds.
