Miss Beulah Ellis Making
Good as a Musician

Tc attend one of Miss Wells
pupils rccitals is to drop into a
garden arcady, where flowers
bloom and birds sing and the
children are at festival, weav-
ing a spell of spring magic that
makes the heart rejoice-at the
second of her 1921 series Miss
Wells presented some of her
students who have been study
ing with her for few years,
none Of them however, advanc-
ed pupils, but children in the
early teens. They revealed a
music, and displayed an inter-
pretative ability far beyond
the average pupil Of their age.
All built up on thoroughly
grounded fundamentals.
The program opened with
a Mozart -Grieg duo, Fantasia
a difficult composition which
Miss Wells played with Miss
Beulah Ellis, who has been her
student for three years. Miss
Ellis comes here from Island
Pond and is unusually gifoed.
In this numebr as in her solo, a
fantastic from the opera 'Aaida'
by Verdi Longe, Miss Ellis dem
onHtrated a wonderful tech
niche and undertaking.

Trucks Getting Busy

While the railroads are VAIN
" appealing for higher rates,
etc the freight and passenger
business is steadily leaving
because Of present excessive
rates. Several roads in Vnr-

cause Of lack Of business.
Every day we see auto trucks
bearing names Of places in 9TH

with big loads of freight. Buy-
Iinoton Wholesale houses are

In institutions having Il quarter of a

where dishes were washed by hand
there were ga cases of the disease
per 1000 persons; but in hotels and
other places having electric dish
washers the rate was only one-third

every irrigated section In the West that
is developed, Is reflected In figures Of
the reclamation service on the Mini
dako project.
"In 1919 the value of the crops was
1924, 900. The value of the manufac
tured articles used on that project
was S7,139,O00. In other words on that
project in 1919 they purchased more
than they produced"
w. ID. Il. Dodson, manager of the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, estl
mates that on the slightly more than
1,000,O00 acres of irrigated lands re-
clnimed total yield valued at S66,.

he said, twas $3.50 per acre from
crops alone for all the irrigated land
In 1918, as compared with $50 an acre
for the average Of all the cultivated

Purpose Of Legislation.
The purpose Of the proposed legis-
lation Is to authorize and direct the
secretary of the treasury to trans
fer TO the reclamation fund upon the
request of the secretary of the interior
total sum Of $250,O0O,0OO in the fol-
lowing manner:

S35, 100000; 1924, S45,000,0O0, and for
each succeeding year for a period Of
three years not to exceed $50,000OOO.
The money is to be used by the In
terror department in reclaiming arid
and semi-arid lands in western
states.
/ Reclaiming these lands includes the
examination and survey of the lands,
determining the character Of the soil,
the feasibility Of placing water there
on by means Of dams, reservoirs, tun-
nels. canals, bikes and such other
means as scientific engineering may
determine as feasible and practicable.
At the end Of Ave years, under the
bin physical valuation of the prop
erty of the district shall be made and
II the taxable part is found by compe-
tent appraisers to be double the cost
of construction the district shall issue
its bonds and from the sale thereof
the reclamation fund Of the United
States treasury shall be reimbursed
to the amount Of money expended on
the projects, principal and interest.
The whole real and personal property
OF the district stands pledged to the
payment OF the bonds. They run not
exceeding twenty- five years.
As under the existing law, persons
desiring to open an irrigation project
must be organized into district In
conformity with the laws Of the stnte
or states In which the project In
whole or In part 10 situated
The total Of $250.0O0000 advanced
to the reclamation fund h to he n
paid to the United States treasury
