The contention of the national
banks OF Washington, July 10, as re-
ported to comptroller Of the currency
shows that the people of this state
are in prosperous condition so far as
money is concerned. There are thirty
three national banks in this state,
with deposits, aggregating $13, 292, 022
The exceptional prosperity of the
farming communities is shown by de-
posits in banks in agricultural Sec
tions. Two banks in Colfax, with
population Of about 5000 people, in
the midst of an extensive wheat Sec
ton have individual deposits of $715,-
124, with loans and discounts of a
little over 100000. In Walla Walla
another agricultural center, two ma
tional banks have deposits of $l,624,-
200, with loans and discounts OF but
$437 $50. These deposits are after
hundreds of thousands OF dollars of
mortgages and other indebtedness
have been cleared off by the farmers.

RITzvILLE, SEPTEMBER IA, 1898.
THE AFTER MATH.

In our late war with Spain we lost
some $50 troops killed in battle. At
ter the war was over VIC lost some
1850 by disease, fever and worst OF all
by starvation and neglect and the
end is not yet. Many of the poor sick
heroes were compelled to offer up
their lives after all danger of battle
had ceased to the incompetency of
some one high in authority. All the
whitewash in America will not cover
up this foul crime, for crime it is,
think OF it, for the purpose of retain
ing some one high in Office we are
compelled to sacrifice our loved one
to greed and the incompetency OF
some political favorite, whose princi-
pal business now is to explain how it
all happened, why, with all of the
princely resources of this mighty
nation did it happen at all.
The aftermath OF il all is that good
volunteers will be scarce quantity
in any future war. They will have a
natural horror of being compelled to
offer up their young lives for the in
competency of anyone. Foreign ma
tions will regard our volunteer service,
that is the management of it, with
contempt.
The President has invited a COM
mittee to investigate the conduct Of
the war Office. The investigation
should be thorough and searching to
the end, as Grant said, that no guilty
man should escape.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Cleaning Grain for Seed.

Too many farmers forget that as
they SOW so shall they reap. When.
seed time comes they use whatever is
most convenient, and pay very little
attention to its being properly cleaned
and selected. This is good time to
begin looking alter the seed wheat
you will need next fall. First, says
Farmers Guide, look around and see
what variety has done best in your
locality, and if you have not grown
that variety find out where the best
seed can be obtained. Get it when it
has been threshed by good machine,
where grains have not been cut, and
as clean as possible. 1t is better to
procure your seed from grain that has
been stacked and gone through
sweat, as it will be plumper and better
in every way. Store it in dark dry
place if you have it about the barn
and sometime before seeding give it
thorough securing and cleaning. See
that there is not a single grain OF any
thing else in it. Very few tanning
mills are to be found on farms these
days, which is probably the reason
why so much poor seed is sown all
over the country. But it will pay
any farmer to keep wheat fan of
modern pattern if for no other use
than to clean his seed wheat. If you
do not own a fan, arrange to have
one for day this season in order that
you may have clean seed once more.
1t always adds to the ready sale of a
crop to have it clean and nice. And
if you will look around you will find
that the very few farmers who have
the reputation of growing nothing but
pure, clean seed wheat can most
always dispose of their crop at an
advance over regular market rates
among farmers who desire to change
their seed. Some farmers make it
rule to buy their seed wheat each
season, procuring grain that has been
grown upon land different in forma.
ton from their own. Thus the farmer
on clay land will go to the farmer
that grows wheat on sandy soil and
vice versa, but whether or not there
is enough in this sort of exchange to
pay for the trouble we will not stop to
argue. At any rate, when seed is pro-
cured from abroad, particular attention
should be paid to cleaning same, or
you are, likely to get some sort of
weed pest on your farm that you do
not care about. Have your seed par
ticularly clear of smut. A very sue
cessful wheat grower once told us
that he always wanted his wheat to
get dead ripe before it was cut, and
when he did this he never had sign
Of smut in his crop. If the price of
wheat is to remain low we must work
up to better crops if we expect to
make profit, and begin our next
crop with as perfect seed as possible.

After the experience Davenport had
last week with the fire the citizens oil
the other towns should profit thereby
and especially Ritzville. At present
we are practically without means Of
fighting fire, and large part Of the
business part of town is built up Of
small frame structures. The city
council should look after this matter
and try and provide some means
whereby we could offer some little
resistance to a fire should it start.
There are surely enough interested
men here to form at least volunteer
fire company, should the council pro-
vide apparatus and some means where
by water could be obtained.

about the weakness Of the American

are beginning to plan for vessels that
