Scotland Visit Brings Praises and Homesick Reflections
Alex Lindsay shares observations from a visit to Auld Scotland, contrasting Scottish farming methods with Western Oregon life. He praises field layouts, rock and lime barns, and sturdy harness, notes Clydesdale horses, and recalls a brusque reception near the Statue of Liberty. He expects to return to Oregon and values Scottish efficiency in fattening cattle and garden produce.

Heppner Mines Prospect In Sumpter District
A Heppner syndicate of fifteen claims, the Heppner Mining Company led by D. B. Stalter, is advancing in the Sumpter district with 1600 feet of tunnels and several high grade veins. Detailed findings include six feet of milling ore up to $24 per ton on the Illinois, a shaft with ore as high as $305 per ton, and cross veins Elizabeth and Heppner with promising depths. Plans call for a 5 stamp mill next season to fund continued development.
