Willard, regional director.
Two projects in Washington in
volving more than one million acres
of land are now under way. In
Oregon 100000 acres are being con-

Families now living on the land

tons. Land owners are not forced
to sell their holdings, but rather
they are given a chance to dispose
of their Improbable lands if they
so desire. The prices paid for the
land are based in appraisals made
by competent land appraisers.
More than 1900 families are now
living in the areas to be purchased
About Is per cent of these families
are on the relief rolls and practically
all the land is deep in tax delin-
quency.
Lands are being purchased III
large blocks and these units will be
administered by existing state and

will be reforested, part of it will be
used for grazing, and some of it VIII

Cascade Highway
Asked In New Bill
Route Would Connect Puget
Sound Road With Methow
Valley Highway

A new attempt to secure con-
struction of the Cascade highway, {
route which would connect the Met
how valley highway with the Puget
Sound Highway at Mount Vernon
will be made in the state legisla
ture this year.
House bill lit, introduced Wed,
nesday by Representatives Fred j
Martin and Hurley of Skagit county
would establish "a primary stale
highway, to be known as the Gas
cade highway, running from Ana
cortes through Burlington, Sedro-
Woolley and Marblemount to 8
junction with the Methow valley
highway in Okanogan county, and
also beginning at Anacortes and
running through Mount Vernon"
Read Important
Importance is attached to the
proposed route since it would not
only open a shorter northern route
to the coast for North Central
Washington, but would open Ill
rich mining and timber resources
Numerous efforts have been made
in the past to secure state approval
Of the road as a primary highway.
The Methow valley highway also
would connect the road with the
present Lo9p Loop road, now being
built into high speed highway by
the forest service. This would give
Okanogan county direct route to
the Puget Sound.

BEETLES KILL MORE PINE
THAN FOREST FIRE LOSS

Western pine beetles destroy each
year in the pine regions OF Ore
gon and Washington eight times
as much timber as do forest fires,
according to the records Of the U.
s. forest sevice on beetle destfuc-
ton for the five years ending with
1888. In the same area, beetles
and windfall together destroyed an
ually over one billion board feet,
which is considerably more pine
timber than is cut by the sawmills.
In 1881 beetles killed almost a
billion feet Of ponderosa pine tins
Der in Oregon and over one humid
red million feet in Washington; In
1881, one and one half billion feet
in Oregon and over a quarter bill
lion feet in washington.
Owing to the intense cold Of the
winter of 1928 insect losses fell
off substantially for 1898. For the
three years ending with 1888 the
beetle kill in ponderosa pine has
totalled nearly three billion board
feet in Oregon which is an annual
average Of almost a billion feet or
a loss Of roughly IL per cent per
annum against the total stand Of
ponderosa pine timber.
In Washington the loss has total
ed over half billion feet for three
years, an average loss of IL per cent
per year. The sawmill cut Of pond
erosa pine in 1888 was 681 100000
feet for Oregon and 233, 100000 feet
for Washington.

Farmers To Fight
For Coulee Market
Must Organize If They Wish To
Open Outlet For Produce,
Chapman Declares

In the face of serious difficulties
Okanogan county farmers are coins
to put up a fight to open an outlet
for their farm products and truce
crops at the Grand Coulee dam site
next summer, if a program now be-
ing developed by Vernon Chapman,
county agricultural agent, is pu:
under way.
Mr.. Chapman, pointing out thu
vast market for farm produce which
exists at the dam, declares that or
ganization of the farmers enabling
Okanogan county growers to sell
their products through their own
agent, who will be located at the
dam site, or through a distributor
there, is the most practical method
by which they may sell to the Cou-
lee dam market.
Issues Statement
In statement covering the vari-
GUS difficulties now existing, and a
proposed solution, he explains:
"The Grand Coulee dam area is
potentially a large market for Ok
anogan county produce, especially
for truck crops next summer. The
question arises in my mind, how
ever, how Okanogan county pro-
ducers are going to obtain goodly
portion of that market with profit
to themselves. The following OBJ
servations are given in hopes that
more can be realized by the produc-
ers from that market:
Il. The distance to the dam site
is nearly 60 miles and the roads are
very poor. Few producers can al
ford to take the time to travel that
distance over poor roads Tor the
amount of produce which they can
sell on any one trip.
"2. The selling of produce in that
area will undoubtedly be difficult
because Of the fact that larger out
side companies will be expecting to
make big sales there, plus the fact
that the large number of producers
who will be attempting to retail
their own produce are apt to wreck
the market.
go. Peddling of produce from
house to house is always expensive.
a. A producer can hardly afford
to travel the great distance between
here and the dam site and lose the
time which would be consumed on
the road and still have time to pro-
duce and properly prepare his crop
for market.
Must Organize
ITO me, the only way in which
Okanogan county truck producers
can expect to get fair portion of
the Grand Coulee market and make
any profit from it will have to be
through an organization which will
either place someone in that area
to peddle and retail, or make a con-
tract with a distributor there to
handle definite volumes of produce
from this valley, or to establish a
farmers market in that area at
which the produce will be sold.
1T is cur opinion that whatever
action is taken, we in Okanogan
county should get together and talk
the deal over in the next few weeks
or, at least, before planting time so
that We can organize our activities
in such a. manner that we can take
full advantage of this market. How
about it?"

Baby Senator Sets New Record;
Has Other Unusual Distinctions

take it easy and learn the ropes.
One of his committee assign
ments isn't overly pleasing to him,
although he admits that the ap-
pointment looked logical. It Is
that Of revising and correcting
the senate journal, one Of the
arduous and thankless tasks
which is always wished off onto
a few Woodworking members.
Because he was editor of the
school paper at the School Of
Science it should be easy for him,
johnson admits, but 1t isn't, for
the one thing he never liked to
do In connection with the news
paper was to read proof.
That johnson Is an unusual
student is indicated both by his
age - most college folk are
younger-and by his background.
He owns and for years has OPP
Grated q farm near Galschutt In
Richland county. AS result, he
knows farm problems first-hand.
Becoming interested In the Farm
ers Union, he helped to organize
the Galschutt local and now Is
its president.
It was as hard for him to pay
taxes as for other farmers, so he
became interested in the tax
problem, was so active that he
now Is president Of the Rlchland
County Taxpayers association
and q member Of the executive
committee Of the state associa-
ton.
It was along about the time
that he got interested in the
Farmers Union that he realized
the need for more education and
enrolled at the science school.
His other occupations followed
as a part Of his natural interests.

CARDS politics as . means to an

Melvin p. johnson Of Wahpe-
ton, "baby member" Of the state
senate, may never become presi-
dent. but even II he doesn't he
already has q political record
which is unique In the annals Of
North Dakota.
johnson, who became Is years
old during the fall campaign.
barely meets the requirement that
q member Of the senate be Of
that age, but his youth Is his
least distinguishing characteristic.
For johnson, despite the fact
that he is young and new, Is on
the way to being q power In the
senate. It was he and few
others who dictated the compro-
mise which enabled the senior
branch Of the state legislature to
avoid the friction which has
marked opening activities In the
house. An Olson Nonpartisan, he
desired to remain in good stand
ing with the Nonpartisan organi-
cation. Some others were In ex-
actly the same position. The
result Is that this small group
poured oil on the troubled, politi-
cal waters.
One Of the most interesting
facts about the young senator is
that his occupation might prop
erly be classed as that Of a COL
lege student, although he has
number Of other distinctions.
He was Just completing his
course In the Junior college at
the Wahpeton State School Of
Science when he was nominated
on the Republican ticket after a
hot contest with H. A. Field, who
represented the twelfth district
at the last two sessions.
That having been accomplish
ed. he went to northern Minne-
sofa, where he worked in the har-
vest fields, but upon his return
to North Dakota he again found
Field in the senate race, this
time as q coalition candidate.
Whereupon, young Mr.. johnson
again took to the hastings, won
another victory.
What he will do after the scs.
SION ends here he isn't yet sure,
but next fall he expects to
matriculate In tho law school at
the University Of North Dakota.
All Of which might indicate
that johnson has an inquiring
mind and q thirst for Informal
ton. He has.
As result, he doesn't expect to
say much ct this session Of the
legislature, or at least not early
In the session. He intends to

THANKS TO MIR. TWICHELL

Twichell is getting a vote Of
thanks from the newspapermen
covering the house for his action
In providing q disable desk for cor
respondents.
When the capitol was being de-
signed he was called in to review
the arrangements for the legisla-
ture. They didn't suit him at all
and twenty odd changes were sug-
gested, most Of which were made.
One Of his suggestions was that
the architects had overlooked
making any provision for the
press. A big desk for them IN
front Of the speakers rostrum was
the result. The only trouble Is
that the desk Is not big enough
to accommodate all OF the cores
pondents who sWarmed into the
house to report the proceedings
there, the rule being that the
newshawks are thickest where the
action Is liveliest.
All correspondents are granted
the privilege Of going on the floor
OF the house and senate because
they represent the interest OF the
public In the doings which they
report.
