Som etime last summer Charles f
Lewis, chairman of the War Bureau,
appointed Col. c. NJ. Jarvis to con-
duct the correspondence in behalf of
the war bureau with the boys and
girls from Berlin in the service. Col.
Jarvis has sent some 1900 or 1900
letters to the various people from Ber-
lin in the service but owing to the
trouble of getting the correct adj
dresses, a great quantity Of this mail
has never reached its destination. OF
late many replies have been received
so that evidently in the last month or
six weeks, or since tho arm!stice, a
lot of his mail has reached the par
ties to whom it was addressed for a
large number of replies are being re-
ceived at the present time.
All these replies express the great
est appreciation of the boys for the
action OF tho local war bureau in
keeping them so carefully informed
about what was going on at home

BIGGEST TIMBER DEAL
. ON BAKER RECORDS IS
CLOSED;;OVER 100000
Stoddard Lumber Company Be-
comes Holder of 60,000,000
Feet; Sufficient to Operate
Mill for Six Years.

Baker county's biggest recorded
timber deal was concluded yesterday
afternoon by the signing Of an OPP
ton and agreement by the Stoddard
Lumber company Of Baker, who be-
come holders of 6O,O0O.O00 feet OF
timber on Denny creek between 10
and Is miles from Baker on the Sump-
ter Valley railway. The former own
ers were John and Henry Hewitt OF
the Hewitt Land company of Tacoma.
whose signatures appear on the docu-
ments. The timber is on tract that
Includes 4,75O acres OF yellow pine
timber adjacent to former holdings of
the local concern. II Is estimated that
the deal will extend the area of timber
controlled by the lumber company
sufficiently TO keep its Baker mill in
operation for an additional five or
six years increasing the total amount
owned by the Stoddard interests so
that timber enough is now in sight to
maintain the plant for 10 to p years.
Officials failed to divulge the total
price paid for the option and for the
timber actually bought. but it is
known to exceed 100000. The great
er part Of the land and timber Is in
cluded In an outright sale. while the
remainder of the tract is held under
option for 20 years.
Logging operations already being
carried on upon land belonging to the
stGddard company will be extended to
the newly acquired tract as soon as
the occasion demands Mr.. Stoddaro
said TODAY. and part of It will be
logged this year.
This transaction is the largest tim
ber sale that has ever been recorded
at the Baker county court house.
