One of the unusual features of
Lottie Blair Parker's play Of South
ern life is that the women of the
cast outnumbered the men. As a rule
the reverse is the case in dramatic
offerings. The presence Of so many
women upon the scene is one OF the
attractions Of the play, especially
as many Of them are young and pref
ty. The birthday party Of the youth
full heroine, and the Hallowe ZEN fes-
tivities, which include the carrying
out Of some amusing Hallowe ZEN
tricks and a Jack-o-lantern dance,
give fine scope for showing the femi-
nine members of the company to ad-
vantage. One of the funniest char
acters in the play is Gamer Lizer,'
who deserves to rank side by side
with the immortal "Topsy.' Aunt
Doshy too, is host Of fun in herself
a typical southern "auntie '-one
of the faithful slaves who chung to
the family she loved, though Tree to
leave them if she wished to do so.
The South furnished many instances
of this devotion upon the part of the
older negroes. The part of the hero
inc, Leila Crofton, young Southern
belle, is a difficult one to enact, por-
traying as it does all the emotion
from gay and loving light hearted
ness. to most intense misery and
grief. "Under Southern Skies'
was written by woman and it gives
women greater opportunity for act
ing than three or four ordinary dram
as. Manager Swisher has secured
this very successful play and it will
be seen at the Gennett Theatre on
Wednesday evening. November 23rd.

for the Semi-arld regions OF
the northwest. 1t does not
thrive in damp regions, hence
it's suitableness for the dry
classes of soil. M. A. Carle-
ton, of the agricultural de-
partment, has given out the
assurance that those farmers
in the arid sections who raise
macaroni wheat will make no
mistake in sowing a large
acreage to the new cereal.
The season is too late now to
go into it's production on a
large scale, but preparations
for next years crop can be
begun at any time. This &C.
real has been successfully
raised in many sections and
the demand for it is increas-
ing, due to the fact that the
manufacture of macaroni is
growing in volume. 1t is es-
timated the crop this year
will reach 100000 bushels.
The foreign demand for the
wheat is great, and the Amer
lean wheat being of excellent
quality it finds a ready mark
ct abroad.

saw the tree, and noted that it was a
different species from the eastern form.
Three years later the great John James
Audubon described the new species,
and named it Cornus Nuttallii, after
the man who had first marked it's diff
ference from other known forms. We
thus have the names of three great
naturalists clustered around this beau
tiful tree of the western forests.
But by far the greatest interest at
taches to the name of Nuttall when
considering this fine dogwood. 1t right
ly bears his name, for he was the first

will be plated and open to location.
The land lies to the north of Sumpter
several miles, and is largely in the un-
defined section left unsurveyed at high
attitudes of the mountains. A por-
tion is in the immediate vicinity of
the Baisley, Elkhorn. Maxwell and
Highland mines, while other portions
lie further to the north.

in The Pacific Monthly is perhaps not
exactly typical. Its long, slender form
shows that it was saved from a thick
growth of other trees. In open places
it produces a more compact form.
Botanists tell us that this tree was
discovered on the lower Columbia river
in 1926 by David Douglas, who mistook
it for the Towering dogwood of the
eastern states. Thomas Nuttall, on Wis
iting the same region in 1884, again

tant when it will be a general
favorite.
Every May it gladdens with
prolific bloom the cOniferOus
forests of the Puget Sound
basin, the Willamette valley
of Oregon, and southwark
along the coast ranges of Cal
ifornia to the San Bernardino
mountains and the western
slopes of the Sierra Nevada.
This is the way Charles
Sprague Sargent, in the "Sil-
va of North America" speaks
of it's beauty: "The flower
clusters of Cornus Nuttallii
are more beautiful and con-
spicuous than the flowers of
any other tree of the Pacific
states; and in early spring,
when the great flower scales
have grown to their full size,
it lights up the dark and SOM
ber forests which are the
home of the dogwOod as with
a bridal wreath, and as with
tongues of flame late in the
year, when the beauty of the
brilliantly colored leaves and
large beads of bright fruit is
often heightened by the ap-
pearance of autumn flowers"
While it's beauty in the
springtime is sufficient to earn
abundant appreciation, it is
the autumnal blooming that
makes this tree worthy of
special note. There is no
other native and uncultivated
tree in the far western forests
that thus bids farewell to sum-
mer in such waves of blooms.
When the tree receives spe-
cial nourishment and care, as
on a lawn, it rarely fails to
yield abundant autumnal flow
ers, contrasting most beautiful
the scarlet heads of ripened fl
the foliage beginning to redd
autumn tints. But in the wild
without the special care of Il
site, the trees often bear tn
flowers. This has frequent
noted on the campus of the III
of Washington at Seattle.

rose-tinted flower scales are

Homeseekers Coming West.

The outlook for a big rush
of settlers into this state next
fall is most excellent. Many
inquiries come from eastern
people as to the opportunities
to be found in Washington
for engaging in business, and
a large proportion of these in
quire are from people who
want to engage in some line
of farming or stockraising.
They say they have the mon
ey to buy land and they want

impossible to lay down any particular
section as being the best, because all
are good and the disposition of the
homeseeker varies in the different
cases. The Ranch has answered sew
eral such inquiries and suggested to
the writer's that they would make no
mistake by coming out for a visit of
personal investigation.

Remedies for Trust Evils.

We know of at least four things to which we
must put end if to convert the trusts into
friendly agencies. First, we must stop discrimina-
tions by railroads. Favoring the big shipper has
to commend the plausible argument that he makes
the railroad less trouble than does the smaller ship
per for given amount of freight but this argu-
ment becomes shallow enough when it is made 10
Justify policy of helping the big shipper to
crush the small one. Equal rates for carload lots
of goods of a common kind will have to be estab-
lished.
Another thing that will have to be stopped is
flooding particular locality with goods offered at
cut-throat prices for the sake of crushing com
petitor who is there operating. Economists point
out difficulties in the way of this policy and law
yers point out others. The policy is indeed diff
hcult one, but If it impossible policy we
should have to make way to success in adopting
and enforcing it; and there is very little doubt
that, with wisdom and determination we can do it.
There Is also the plan of selling kind of goods
at a cheap rate for the sake of crushing competi-
tors, who make only that kind of goods, and fore
ing them to sell their plants to the trust on It's own
terms. Putting end to this by law may be even
harder than stopping the cut-throat competition
which acts locally, but it will have to be done if we
are ever to be completely free from the evils and
the perils that monopoies bring.
Finally, there is the factors agreement'-tbe
refusal by the trust to sell goods to dealer at
living price unless he will promise not to buy any
similar articles from a competitor.
1t is a hard and uphill road that Democracy
must travel in its efforts to regulate trusts; but
there is no possible doubt that it must travel by
that route or go farther and fare worse There is
