The mistaken idea is so general
among grain growers that they are
being outrageously swindled by the
various middlemen handling their
grain, that the experience of Walla
Walla farmer who determined to test
the matter, and relates the result to
the Statesman. may be of interest. He
took 10000 bushels of wheat to Walla
Walla and found that buyers were pay
ing but twenty-five cents bushel. He
sold half of 1t and took the remaining
10000 bushels to Portland, paying fif-
teen cents q bushel for transportation.
Arrived there his best offer was forty
cents, and he made up his mind that
there was combination to get the best
of him, so he paid twenty-four cents a
bushel to have the grain shipped to
Liverpool, where sale was made that
netted him Just twenty-five cents a
5usher, or the exact figure offered by
the Walla Walla buyer. His expert
ence was not very costly one, but II
convinced him that there was not as
much profit accruing to the various
handlers Of his product as is generally
supposed by the grower.

The Problem In Launching r. Ship.

Impressive us the launch Of IL great
vessel always is, it nevertheless seems 4
simple matter. All there is to do is to
build two toboggan slides under the
ship, raise her from the Oh
which she has been resting, put a lot of
tallow OH the slides, and, when you are
ready, saw loose the thick plank that
holds the ship by the nose and let her
glide into the water. You must have
tho Wine to christen her, and II crowd
to cheer her, and some tugs to catch Ter
and bring her back to her pier; but all
these arc mere details, and it would
seem as if any ship could almost launch
herself if she had half Il chance.
A launch Is simply taking Il ship from
the side Of Il stream down to the bank
and dropping her in the water where
she belongs. This involves the task of
lifting Il mass OF iron, il Il ship like
the st. Louis, of about 1000 tons, and
the work of lowering it carefully Tor Il
distance Of from 20 to 40 feet. All this
has To be done III the space Of about 80
seconds, during which tho vessel moves
nearly . feet. AT once you can see
that this is an o II task. 1t in
wolves the greatest responsibility in q
short time that the shipbuildcr meets.
There is no opportunity to correct er-
rors. Every mechanical appliance must
work to perfection, and the manual de-
tails must be as nicely adjusted as the
parts Of Il watch. You can launch a YES
sci, as you can build one, on the rule of
thumb or the hit or miss plan, and you
may NOT como tn nrinf. 1nt !, /, loc& -

children, both infants, was going. it is
said, i'll her w ''ckka'' from Ranma-
gar to II place i'll the enter of tho Bar
tract. The driver was Il trustworthy
servant Of tho family, and it was for
this reason that tho lady had not divcst
ed herself Of the ornaments she usually
Wore. But the sight of tho Jewels was
too much for him, and ut an exception
ally lonely spot in that lonely country
he suddenly asked his mistress to hand
him her valuubles. On her suspocting
his real designs and hesitating the mis-
creant showed himself in his real col
ors, and made her md her little ones,
who could barely toddle about, get
down. The horrible thought that was
working i'll his brain, that of hiding his
crime by means of murder, had given
his face Il sardonic look, which mado
the poor woma tremble.
Then the fiend bound her hand and
foot, and informed her that he would
first kill her children and then do her
to death. BY her earnest c~ntreaties she
prevailed over him to begin with her
first. He had an AK i'll his hand, with
which no aimed Il blow at her, but tho
head being loose it flew away and fell q
few PAGES off, the handle only remain
ing in his grasp. He stepped into tho
grass to look for it and disappeared be-
hind Il mound. She waited her certain
doom with al her nerves on the strain.
She gradually fell into Il and
when she camer round tho first thing ehe
saw was her husband bending over her
and her babies crying and Juggling at
her clothes.
After she had gono Il namoless unoasi-
ness seized her husband. He could not
reason away his Vague fears, try as he
would, and at last he mounted his horse
and followed the "ckka." He had pro-
cccdcd but II few miles when tho dread
full sight of his wife and children lying
bound up With cords OIL the ground met
his eyes. And the story that his wife
told him CONCEALED his blood with hor-
ror. They both then, drawn by an ire
pressible curiosity, went toward tho di-
rection that the miscrcant had taken to
pick up his AK, and think of their sur
prise when they saw his corpse already
