Pnlr Of Notable Mn1..

Missouri has lately advanced two
more claims to prominence, and they
both concern her most notable prod
uct, the mule. Mike Murray, of Here
ford, in that state, has mule he is
going to send TO the exposition. 1t is
a mare, eight years old, IS hands high
(six feeD at the shoulder, weighs 1,706
pounds and is still growing. The other
mule resides in Joplin, but it is 30
years old and is so gentle that it is
a playmate for its owners children.

A new grain, known as corn-wheat,
is being grown in eastern Washington.
1t has the nature of both corn and
wheat, possessing the fattening quail
ties of corn and the corn flavor. In
appearance it resembles wheat. Its
grains are twice as large as those of
ordinary wheat. 1t yields 60 to 100
bushels an acre, and seems to solve
the problem of fattening hogs in the
Pacific northwest, as corn is not sue
cessfully raised in that country.

LIGHT
FOR THE
STATE
Present Contract Expires in
About a Weeks
Time too Short in Which TO
Provide its own Plant

No arrangements have yet been
made for the lighting Of the various
state institutions after April "a. next.
when the contract now in force be-
tween the Salem Light. Power &
Traction Company and the state ex-
pires. The matter of providing for
this service has been referred to the
state board which includes the gov.
ernor. secretary Of state and state
treasurer Consideration has been
given the subject by the board at its
meetings but no definite action of any
kind has been taken looking to the
renewal OF the existing contract OF
the making OF other arrangements.
Some action will be taken soon.
The question Of supplying the state
institutions with electric lighting was
raised during the late legislature and
Joint committee was appointed to
investigate and report on the matter.
Figures were secured as TO the prob.
able cost Of installing for the state an
electric lighting plant of sufficient ca
pacity to serve all OF the state insti-
tutlons. The statistics proved unsat-
isfactory and the committee disposed
OF It's task by referring the PROPOSE
tIon entirely to the board and recon.
mending that an appropriation be
made OF $4,000 to enable the state
officers TO proceed with the installa.
ton of It's new plant. The time be
tween the reference by the committee
Of the matter and the date Of the eX.
piration Of the contract rs 40 short
that the members Of the board have
not had the opportunity 10 give the
matter a full investigation. The time
Is not sufficient for thinking Of install
ing lbs own plant hence the only way
out of the situation for the state Is to
make the best arrangement that Is
possible that the institutions may he
supplied with lights. Bids for furnish
ing the different institutions with the
desired service was recently called
