ON BARRET'S ISLE

A great deal OF excitement was ere
ated Saturday evening when it was
reported that an enormous elk had
wandered into the valley and had
crossed the river to Barrett's Island,
where it seemed inclined to spend the
night.
On Sunday, a number of residents
of the valley drove out to see 1t put
the elk. alas, turned out to be a rein
deer. and a very tame one with bell
tied around it's neck, at that. 1t had
deserted a domestic herd of twelve OF
it's kind at Wilson Greek and headed
for the open country, evidently paying
insufficient attention to barbed wire
fencses and such, from the testimony
of it's lacerated legs. A hundred mile
trek brought it to the White BUNS
ferry landing where it was spled by
Wesley Robbins who Immediately gave
chase, finally driving it into the river
and across to the island.
Sunday, Robbins, Wright Wlehl ano
Cecil Borden crossed the river and or
horseback drove the ANIMAL from lts
shelter On the island into the rlVel
| where they were able to lasso 1t IRON
a roWboat. 1t put up considerable re-
sistance, but they finally were able u
tether it on shore until it's owner ar
rived with truck to take 1t back u
the home corral at Wilson Greek.

EROSION SURVEY
MADE BY PULLMAN

Another step in the governments
conservation policy designed to benefit
every section was carried out a rev
days ago as two soil specialists from
the u. S. D. I. Pacific Northwest
Erosion Control Project at Pullman
completed a reconnaissance erosion
survey of Benton County Present plans
of the Interior Department include
making such a survey Of all agricul-
tural counties in Idaho, Washington,
Oregon, and Montana. It is possible
that Wyoming and Utah will be in
Guided in this survey. The field men
spend from several days to two weeks
in each county, depending upon the
time necessary to gather the desired
information. It is then to be checked
and filed so as to be made available.
This reconnaissance work has a
three-fold purpose:
/. To get complete picture OF tne
kinds of erosion in the area. Farming
grazing, and timbered areas, with
special emphasis on the farming lanos
will all be studied
2. To form an estimate OF probable
future erosion Judging by present con-
ditions and present utilization OF the
land.
3. To learn what control measures
can be used to best advantage In eacf
locality.
