COUNTRY SUITS HIN.
B. l. Bull Tells Eastern People Why Land Is
Valued High Here

The following letter appeared in the
Grant county (Minn.) Herald, recently.
1t is sample of hundreds that are
being sent east and which are large
factors in the introduction OF new set
tiers in the Yakima valley.
NORTH YAKIMA, WAsH.-We see by
the wrapper on our paper that our SUBJ
scription is in arrears, so enclose money
order to send us ahead again. We are
as anxious as ever to receive the Herald,
and note with interest the various
changes made in your town and the
country about, which are interesting and
progressive. The old familiar names
touch us tenderly, awakening reflections
upon the happy past which time seems
unable to efface from memory.
Our location here still suits us well,
and we enjoy the best of health. We
were unfortunate in spraining our elbow,
when eryslpelas set in, and We have
been laid up about two months with the
arm, which is now improving rapidly.
Have rented our ranch in Sunnyside,
after improving it well, and have been
living this winter in this the county seat
town, which is 35 miles up the valley
| II tiiC Ills lONll HAS the
annual state fair, which has a great
exhibit of fruit and vegetables also no
mean exhibit of stock, generally.
Improved ranches about the Sunny
side country are now selling as high az
| $3.50 per acre. Your readers will natur-
ally inquire what is the product that
will warrant such prices for land Well,
| will say, first, our hay the past season,
fed out to range stock, brought us $27
per acre for the two first cuttings, and
we have the third cutting still left to
sell as feed, and it is nearly equal to
either of the other cuts. This is from
new seeding, so will be heavier the year
following. Then potatoes yield from
five to twelve tons per acre, and this
season have sold from SIG to $22 per ton.
One man sold seven acres of apples on
the trees for $500. So you can figure
out the possibilities of an irrigated
country.
The weather is fine and warm now
but we had eight or ten days of zero
weather early, and the coolest was six
below as reported to us. And now Mr..
Editor, if we have not lin dunning our
self made this preamble too tedious to
your kind readers, we shall be thankful
and bow ourself out

"Now, that while all domestics are not
of the kind to be equal to such an after
noon or to appreciate it, it does show
that young women of refinement are
often serving in homes and leads to the
belief that if proper respect and treat
ment were accorded them for the service
so indispensable in every well-regulated
household, more of the better class Of
wage-earners would choose domestic
service in preference to the factory or
shop"

THE RIGHT WAY.
How to Solve the Servant Girl Problem Lu-
cidly Explained.

cidly Explained.
The HERALD's editorial on the servant
girl question is already bearing fruit,
notwithstanding some exception was
taken to the views expressed by some
Pacific coast ladies who favor letting the
Chinese in to do domestic service. In
| the Seattle Times of recent date Mar
ion B. Baxter treats the matter lucidly
in an effort to assist in solving this vex-
atious question. Some information is
given that may be of interest to those
who are studying this question. The
article referred to says in part
"a domestic, according to the best au-
thority on definitions, is one who lives
in ones family as hired servant, and
Knox is quoted as saying That the
master tolls and leads an anxious life, to
secure plenty and ease to the domestic. ,
If it were possible to find the sum total
of worries, it is just possible that
Knox might be found correct anyhow
We risk nothing in saying that there is
no place where a woman wage-earner is
safer or more at ease than in the home
of a good woman who needs her Sc vice
and values her because, with the ability
to serve, she combines the grace and
courage to do it.
Recently the women of wealth in
Willamette, Illinois, started out to see
what could be done to bring about a
better understanding between them
selves and the domestic below stairs.
The movement started in good faith,
was practical, and met with success, as
the result demonstrated.
"Mrs. John Pope opened her elegant
parlors to twenty-three domestics, who
were invited with all the ceremony of
function given by the upper four hum
dred. The purpose of the function was
distinctly stated and mistress and maid
met on mutual ground. There were
present the president of the Woman's
club and several social leaders in their
good gowns, and these women learned
something that afternoon that opened
their eyes so wide that nothing can shut
them again-to this matter at least.
"They heard the maid from below
stairs conduct the meeting according to
Roberts rules of order, without flaw;
they listened to delightful readings from
Charles and Mary Lambs tales of the
Shakespeare plays, and were favored
with classical music on the piano, rem
dered with ease and technique. At
parting matron and maid stood side by
side, touched each others hands, looked
into each others eyes and each in her
sphere will be better for it through all
time.
"This function was the initial step in
a series of its kind, and it is not beyond
reason to say that the light from above
stairs and the light from below stairs
met somewhere about midway and rec
ognized that both were of God.

Dangers of Pneu mOnia

A cold at this time if neglected is liable to
cause pneumonia which is so often fatal
and even when the patient has recovered
the lungs are weakened, making them
peculiarly susceptible to the develop

strengthen the lungs and and prevent
pneumonia. North Yakima Drug Store,

where the extremely light movement OF
spring wheat to market has come to be q
consideration of great importance. 1t Is
not that the movement has been lighter
than for the past FIVE weeks, but that
this fact continuously passed over as a

seriously now that it is the mi Idle of

bushels, there is to-day 1,3lS,G63 bushels

everything in the grade wheat that comes
in. and elevator men have found no sur
plus with which to fill their houses. That
wheat will come in very soon in larger
quantity is the expectation.
The government weekly report was ia
vorable. Frosts have occasioned some
alarm and a little of scare worked into
the speculative markets in cereals, but
everything still standing is so close to
maturity that it is doubtful if any damage
