tration on the stock cattle business
to the exclusion OF the diversified
farming to a degree at least must
be blamed. Further than that this
section of the state, and in fact
all Oregon has, apparently lacked
the great essentials, leadership and
cooperation.
We agree that Mr.. Martin is
right. Development apparently stops
with the oregon line on every side.
Mr.. Martins statement is really a
challenge to Oregon. To the men
of Malheur county in particular.
But II most also be considered that
so long as the land OF the county
is in large blocks that development
cannot be achieved. One OF the
first steps toward development and
progress in this or any other sec
tion will come when the man on
the farm owns his land and ia per-
sonally interested in its progress.

HENS THAT LAY BRING

Lane County Community Prospering

Cottage Grove, in Lane county is
one OF the towns in Oregon which is
not experiencing hard times. In
fact they do not know that there is
such thing as a slump in business
over there for every month in the
year wealth comes to the commun-

the Oregon State Editorial associa-

Friday and Saturday.
Mr.. Bede is making a trip over the
entire state visiting with the old
members and securing new members
to the association and has thus had
an excellent opportunity to Judge
the business prosperity of various

business and of reduced credits and

Bede, i" II is all newspaper talk, so

baby chicks at about 20 each. There

HIMALAYAS IN SECOND PLACE
Exploration in Tibet Have Revealed
Existence of More Massive
Mountain Range.

Among the greatest results achieved
by the Hedin explorations in Tibet
was the discovery of a continuous
mountain chain, 1900 miles long,
stretching east and west, and which,
taken as a whole, is the most massive
range on the crust of the earth. It's
average height above sea level is
greater than that Of the HImalayas,
and although it's peaks are from 1000
to 5000 feet lower than Mount Ever
est, its passes average 5000 feet high
er than those of the Himalayas.
The eastern and western parts Of
this range were known before, but the
central and highest part, in Bongba,
was unexplOred previous to Doctor
Hedin's visit. He crossed ten passes
in the range.
