InEODOkE kOOSEVELT, OF New York
The Lewiston valley fair is at
tracing general interest. The
stockmen are fully aroused to the
importance of the enterprise. The
farmers and fruit growers are pre-
pairing to exhibit their products
and take holiday during fair
week. There is general desire
manifest among all classes to learn
more Of the wonders of this great
new district of manifold natural
industries.
There Is said to be nearly 200, ;
600 acres of wheat, barley, oats
and flax on the reservation and
camas Prairie now ready for har
vest. 1t is conservative estimate
to place the yield at 4, 900. 900
bushels. 1t will tax the labor
forces and the machinery to the
utmost to harvest this crop. The
marketing will afford work for all
available forces for half year and
the railroad will be blocked for six
months, before it can be shipped.
This grain belt is pronounced the
best in the United States. The
present crop is the largest and
most prolific in the history of the
country. 1t is believed to be the
biggest small grain crop ever
grown on any equal area in the
world. This assertion may be
considered an extravagant one. 1t
has been coroborated by hundreds
Of witnesses. Many visitors have
gone into this district who were
skeptical after hearing this claim;
but they have all, so far as repot-
ed, returned fully convinced that
the claim is we'll made. The fact
is il would be a practical impossi-
bility to produce more grain on an
equal area. The claim is therefore
established beyond a doubt that
this is the most productive small
grain belt in the world
The great need of the business
interests along the Snake river at
this time is a powerful little steam
er suited to the navigation of swift
shallow water. The unusually low
water of this year is endangering
many interests. The wheat will
surely BE- blocked in another month
and there is now danger that the
fruit cannot be moved by pr. sent
facilities. The country is fast out
growing the possibilities of trans.
portation in all quarters, and es-
pecially is this true of the districts
which depend wholly upon the
steamboats,. One or two small
boats of modern pattern and fitted
with powerful machinery would not
only find profitable business on
Snake river, but great volume of
business would be developed by
attention to this demand.

OVBREATING AND CANCER.

The theory is advanced by Sir Will
liam Banks, in a recent series of lee
lures delivered before the British Medi-
cal Society, that OVereating, or even
a high standard of general nutrition"
may predispose to cancer, which he be-
lieves to be eminently a disease of the
healthy and robust Thus abundance
of food, which is a result of national
prosperity, and on the whole a power
full factor in the improvement of pub
lie health, is not without it's draw
backs. More than one hygienic pro-
phet," says The British Medical Jour
nal, in a note on the subject, has late
ly uplifted his voice in warning as to
the evils of overlooking" and Sir Will
liam but adds one more reason for de-
ploring and discouraging it. Says the
writer of the note just quoted:
THE theory is not altogether new,
but it undoubtedly acquires new
strength from the adhesion of sur
geon of his experience and sagacity.
He points out that the increase of can
Ger comedies with an increase of food
throughout the country Great Brit
AIM Ever since the passing of the
Corn Laws, he says, bread has been
cheap and plentiful, while during the
last twenty years the importation of
animal food from other countries has
been enormous. The increased wages
and emoluments of all classes in this
country have enabled them to purchase
freely of the best there is to be had in
the whole world of things to eat and
drink. Our working classes fare adj
mirably. Our better classes eat in
finitely too much, especially of animal
food partaken of at breakfast. lunch.
and dinner. But for the athletic ten
dency of the age and the general pas
sion for games and exercises which
pervades all classes, this over-stuffing
must have proved very dangerous, Sir
William Banks is pretty well convin-
ced that, when man is over forty
five, excess in food is perhaps worse
for him than excess in drink, and be-
lieves one of the results of too much
nourishing food is the production of a
widely spread second-rate kind of
govt Of a different type from the acute
and furious attacks produced in for
mer DAYS by the copious drinking of
beer and port wine. Sir William Banks
is distinctly of opinion that it has also
to do with the increase of the consti-
tutiOnal tendency TO cancer. The the
orv Is supported by the fact that the
| increase of cancer in males has been
more rapid than in females. And It is
precisely the male population that eats
heavy food in ever-increasing quaint
ties. whereas the female remains much
as she was before in this respect"

In re- ply Griffin picked up a shovel and hit Jacobs over the head with it, inficting an ugly wound.

STRUCK A BICYCLIST.

A Collision on Church Street Early Yes
 terday Morning.
 Car No. 30 of the Winchester avenue road yesterday morning about 6:50 struck bicyclst on Church street, near the corner of Crown. The 'bicyclist had just turned the corner Crown street in to Church street and rode in front of the car. He was knocked from his wheel. He was picked up by a few early pedestrians and carried to the steps of P. J. Kelly & Co.'S store where he soon revived. His wheel was not broken and he rode away, refusing to give his name, which some of those in the crowd said, however, was H. s. Nettleton. The car was running slowly at the time, and those who saw the ac- cldent said that the motorman was not at fault.
