THOSE RUSSIAN QuAkERS.
They Are Offered lniuccmcnt to
Settle in Canada.

BY the following from Harpers
Weekly. it will be seen that the Rus
sian quakers it has been proposed 10
bring here for plantation labor have
been offered remarkable inducements
TO settle elsewhere:
1t is. on the whole, something OF a
relief TO learn that the aggregation Of
Russian peace-at-any-price peasants,
called the Dhoukobortsi, whose story
was told in II recent paragraph IN the
Weekly, are not to be brought to the
United States, but are to test the hos
FATALITIES OF our Canadian brethren in
western Manitoba. The Dominion gov
eminent, ii seems, will give each fam
lily 100 acres of land, besides bonus
of six dollars TO each person, and will
provide shelter for the 1000 persons
who are expected TO come from Russia
during the present winter, That Is
probably a better arrangement than
Uncle Sam could have made for them
our good uncle is no longer land poor
and has few acres left that are worth
taking up, and, besides, his attention
is so engrOssad just now by foreign
missionary projects that ii Is doubtless
lest that he should not add rashly 20
his responsibilities at home

Two Pointed Questions answered.
What is the use OF making a better
article than your competitor II you Can
Get a better price for it?
Aps.-As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the bet
Ter, SO that while our profits may &c
smaller on single sale they will he
much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
YOUR make is the best?
If both articles are brought promin-
emily before the public both are certain
to be tried and the public will very
quickly pass judgment on them AID
use only the better one.

Adams County news. [volume] (Ritzville, Wash.) 1898-1906, 1898-08-10

What is to be the ruling price for
wheat this fall is still subject of
conjecture. The News was in error
when it said several weeks ago that
80 cents would be paid in Ritzville
before 30 was paid, there has been a
few loads sold Mt SO cents but it
seems to strain the buyer to pay it
and if much wheat was rushed upon
the market we have no doubt the
price would go down to near 40 cents.
Farmers in this county are nearly all
in condition financially to hold their
wheat indefinitely. That is they don It
have to have the money, but the
question of place for storage is to
be considered. Where is 10000, 900
bushels Of wheat to be kept from the
weather. There is no place at present,
probably 100000 bushels would fill
every warehouse in the county at
present, and comparatively few far
mers have gsanary room for more than
feed and seed. Will it pay to build
granaries to hold wheat, when it is
worth about so cents?

Superior Court.

Judge G. H. Neal came down last
Wednesday night on request to hold a
special term of the superior court, the
the principal case for his consideration
being Margian'a Henderson VS.. J. M.
Shelton ct al, wherein the plaintiff is
foreclosing a mortgage on same lands
in this county, sought to have receiv-
er appointed to take charge ofthe gro
wing crops. Attorneys Holcomb&Zent
representeted the plaintiff and J. P.
Pickrill, of Colfax, appeared for all
of the defendants. After hearing the
argument of Mr.. Pickrill on demurrer
to have receiver appointed, the PLAIN
tiff confessed the demurrer and the
case was settled.
The case OF s. G. jackson VS.. James
Smith was then taken up on motion
Of Holcomb & Gent to dismiss the ap-
peal OF the defendant from the Justice
court, which was resisted by Attorney
d. H. Harrison. The motion was
granted and the appeal dismissed.
The case of the state of Washington
ex rel d. W. Gent VS.. G. Staser was
then called up and Judge Neal handed
down decision dismissing the pro-
ceedings. Holcomb & Zent appeared
for the relator and d. II. Harrison for
the respondent.
The case OF Emma Owens VS.. Phe-
lix s. Owens for divorce was then ia
ken up, Attorneys Holcomb & Zent
appearing for the plaintiff and County
Attorney Staser for the defendant.
Testimony was heard and a decree OF
separation entered. The court also
gave the plaintiff all the property
possessed by the parties at the COM
mencement of this action, the custody
OF the two children and ordered the
defendant to pay $3.50 per month TO
the support Of the children until they
reached their majority.
Court then adjourned. But here
after the judge will hold a regular
term of court here about every go
days, unless urgent matters demand
it oftener than that, as the supreme
court has just decided that the court
has no jurisdiction OF a cause while

The Cheney Free Press under date
OF August 8 has the following item:
"Some OF the wheat fields, notably
around Deep Greek, are infested with
minute green insects which are doing
great damage. The affected fields
Aave,a peculiar whitish appearance,
as though touched by frost. Are any
Of the fields in this vicinity affected2"
May it not be possible that the
wheat alluded to is affected by wheat
scab. Farmers who read the article
which we printed last week from J.
c. Arthur, botanist, of Indiana will
remember that wheat scab was some
times charged to the wheat nudge and
green fly. Observing farmers are apt
to know what it is that kills or DANA
ges their crops and it may be possible
the botanist is mistaken. To us it
seems to be such a peculiar coinci-
dence that the symptoms are so near
ly identical in these cases, that we are
inclined to believe the disease or
cause of damage is the same in both.
We heard some complaint early in
the season that the wheat heads in
certain portions of the county partic
ularly among winter wheat seemed
TO he dead and turned white, and it
denSed that frost was the cause. Pos
sibly the wheat scab of the east, or
maybe it is the green fly, has reached
the wheat fields OF Washington.
