nected with each of these courses will
be given many other subjects of in
struction which are closely allied to
the work 1t is believed that the best
equipped dairyman or cheesemaker is
the one who knows something more
than the work he is compelled to do
inside the walls of his factory. Conse-
quently instruction is given on the pro-
duction of milk, including the manage
ment Of cattle, the study of its proper
ties and best methods Of handling it
before it reaches the factory, and
many other similar subjects which are
practical and which should be known
by those undertaking to make a sue
cess of dairy practice. A competent
instructor will be secured from one of
the eastern states, correspondence be-
ing now in progress on this subject
with several parties. In addition to
this instructor, who will give his en-
tire time to the work, the members
of the college faculty will be drawn
on so far as necessary to complete
well-rounded course of instruction
Persons wishing to avail themselves
of the privileges of this school are in
vited to correspond with e. e. Elliott,
professor of agriculture, Pullman, who
has charge of this school. There are
no fees charged for instruction and
the only expense to students is that
for board and lodging and the neces-
sary books. 1t is hoped that many Will
attend and further equip themselves
for their chosen work. Any inquiries
on the work of the course or informa-
ton which may be considered neces-
sary will be gladly furnished.

HOLDS DAIRY SCHOOL.

The eighth annual session of this
popular course in dairying will be held
at the Washington agricultural college
February 20 to April %. The course
this year will pursue lines similar to
those which have been followed in pre-
ceding years. For two or three years
past the school has worked under the
disadvantage of having no building or
plant sufficiently well equipped for it's
purpose. Through the generosity for
its last legislature this lack has been
supplied and there is now in process of
construction new dairy building
which is to take the place of the one
destroyed by fire some three years
ago. The new building will be To-
Gated Immediately in the rear of
science hall and facing the parade
ground. 1t will be of frame, veneered
with brick, 52x40 feet in extent, with
a boiler and engine room in addition.
Equipment is being furnished by va
rlous firms supplying creamery ma
chlnery and it is proposed to add a
refrigerating system for which bids
are now being considered.
The course of instruction embraces
TWO distinct divisions. One is a fac
tory course in creamery management
IN which the practical operations of
factory will be emphasized; the other
embraces the distinct line of work

PURE FOOD VIOLATIONS.

state Dairy and Pure Food Commits
sioner e. A. Mcdonald has prepared
a statement showing the result of
eleven prosecutions made by his office
for food authorizations since September
1st. Of the prosecutions eight were
for selling adulterated milk, all of
which occurred in Seattle. The three
other cases arose in Davenport, Ana
cortes and Tacoma.
A $25 fine was imposed upon Parks
Bros. & Co. for selling adulterated
honey at Davenport. Parks Bros. &
Co. of San Francisco are given as the
manufacturers. An analysis of the
honey showed surcose, 4.6 per cent;
direct polarization, plus 49.7 deg; in
direct polarization, % 26 deg. G plus
43.7 deg, adulterated with glucose.
A currant jelly sold by A. Marvin
was analysed as follows: Water, 25.45
per cent sucrose, 22.53 per cent; ash,
O.S3 per cent; reducing sugar (glu-
cose), 44.79 per cent; total solids, 74.55
per cent; direct polarization, plus 59.4
deg, indirect polarization, @ 1913 G
plus $50 deg, adulterated with glucose.
A fine of $25 was imposed by Judge
Lowman at Anacortes.
1t cost Armstrong & Switzer $25
when Judge Griffin found them guilty
of selling the Blue Ribbon brand of
mustard, made by Caswell & Co. Of
San Francisco. An analysis showed
the mustard adulterated as follows:
Moisture, 6.33 per cent; total ash, 4.37
per cent; insoluble ash, 020 per cent;
volatile ether extract, 0.29 per cent;
non-volatile ether extract, 11.58 per
cent; reducing matter calculated as
starch, 42.57 per cent; crude fiber, 2.64
per cent, adulterated with starchy ma
terial and colored with turmeric.
Judge Cam heard all the milk cases
save one. He imposed fines as follows
Upon John Prentice, $50, adulterated
milk containing less than 3 per cent
butter fat; Y. Ote, $50, milk contain
ing formaldehyde; J. Damastes, SIS,
milk containing formaldehyde; Peter
Corini, $50, adulterated milk contain
ing less than 8 per cent butter fat;
Ben Corini, $50, adulterated milk con.
tanning less than 8 per cent butter fat;
Rice & Curtis, $25, adulterated milk
containing less than per cent butter
fat; N. G. Cabin, $25, adulterated milk
containing less than per cent butter
fat. Judge George heard the case
against Mckenzie & Holstein, accused
of selling milk containing Tornado
hyde, and imposed fine of $25. This
has been appealed to the superior
court.

A New Cream Separator.

In the Scientific American is a short
sketch and illustration of a new sep
arator with some new mechanical
ideas. The separator has an outer
cylinder stationary and an inner one
that revolves at the usual high rate of
speed. The milk is fed al the bottom,
cream delivered at the top and skim
milk at the bottom. The special i'm
provement is the two bowls, which
are corrugated in opposite directions,
for carrying the cream and skim milk.
The patentee is Henry H. Stussey,
of South Dakota.

1t has been noticed that where rape
is grown and sheep pasture upon it the
influence upon the fertility of the land
is excellent. The mistake must not
be made, however, that rape in itself
has power to increase fertility in land
other than what it may gather in the
subsoil and put back again on the sur
face soil and grazed off. The grazing
supplies the surface soil with fertilizer
in readily available form. This eX-
plains why a stand of clover may be
obtained on land that has grown rape
and is then pastured off with sheep
where previously clover would fail.

An association has been formed
among a number of the land owners of
the Tammany Hollow section in Ida

to begin at once work on the first well;
which will be sunk, if nece ssary, to a

several shallow artesian wells on the

Christie In Jail

John Christie was taken to
Montana last Thursday by
Sheriff Pepper and special
deputy Harness. Before leaving
he madea written canfession ac-
knowledging his and Hammond's S
guilt giving all the details of the
robbery. In addition to this he
also stated that Geo. Hammond,
by his own confession to him
was the man who, single handed,
held up a train at the same place
two years ago.
After searching the scene Of
the robbery, Christie guided the
officers to various places where
the booty was concealed. In all
about fifty thousand dollars
worth of securities, cash and
diamonds were located and re-
covered. Christie waived exam
ination and was held under $50,
900 bonds to await trial, which
will be in September. In default
of bonds he was committed to
Jail where he now is. tits thought
that his sentence will be made
very light in view of his age and
antecedants, and because of his
having confessed to the whole
thing and given all the informa-
tion in his possession.

"HOLD YOUR WHEAT"

The first "hold your wheat"
circular of the season has turned
up in Minneapolis. The circulars
are addressed to farmers and are
supposed to emanate from the
indianapolis headquarters of the
National Union of the American
Society Of Equity. The associa-
ton is an organization whichaims
to regulate wheat prices. Presi-
dent j. H. Everett, in a recent
communication estimates the
1904 winter wheat crop in the
United States at 100000
bushels and the spring wheat at
21O,O00,OO0 bushels. He believes
that a large quantity of low grade
wheat, caused by rust and wet
weather, will have to be deducted
from this total and that the total
crop available for milling pur-
poses will be 555, 1000, 900 bushels.
The winter wheat crop is a,
short one, and besides there is
an enormous quantity Of low
grade wheat, the result of the
hard wet winter and rust" he
says. There is scarcely a sec
ton of the winter wheat belt
where the crop has not suffered.
The spring wheat estimate may
be changed, depending on the
weather until it is entirely saved.
The estimate on winter wheat is
baeed on extensive investigation
anr reports from about $4,000
farmers"
The possibility of wheat at$1 20
is considered highly improbable
by members of the chamber of
commerce who are familiar with
the wheat situation, but the pro-.
bable bullish effect of circulars
received by $4,000 farmers is not
disputed. Minneapolis Journal,

GRAIN PLANT LOUISE,

To the Forum: There have
been many inquiries of the ex.
pertinent station, in regard to
the insect that is affecting the
heads of wheat and other grain
crops in this state quite common
ly this season. This insect is a
green louise and is known as the
grain plant louise or the wheat
aphis. 1t is probably found every
season to some extent, and oc-
'casionslly as this season, it be-
comes quite abundant and may
remain so for two or three sea-
sons. It gets it's living by pier
cling the tissues of the plant and
sucking the juice. When they
are present in large enough
numbers, this causes drying
up of the plant tissues, so that
the wheat cannot mature as it
should. Wheat harvested from
a field where the insects are very
numerous is found to be shrunk-
en- to a greater or less. If the
lice are very abundant it may
even cause a blighted appearance
of the wheat. They have obtain,
ed so much juice of the wheat
plant that it has caused a pre-.
mature ripening, and the field
will be spotted white. Ordinarily
they are not thick enough to
cause a blighted appearance, but
they still damage the wheat, and
at threshing time the wheat is
seen to be shrunken, due to the
attacks of the lice. It has been
found that wheat will shrink as
much as 30 per cent, but ordin-
arily, the shrinkage is not as
much as this. There is no rem
edy in the way of sprays or
chemicals, that is practical to
apply to these lice. They have
natural enemies in the way of
other insects, and as the lice be-
came abundant, their enemies or
parasites increase in like ratio,
and when their enemies become
! abundant, the lice decrease. The
insect is very similar to a greer
louise that attacks hnuse plants
and different garden vegetables

TWO STEPS
The Last One Helps the First.

A sick coffee drinker must take two
steps to be rid of his troubles and get
strong and we'll again.
The first is to cut OFF coffee abso-
lutely.
That removes the destroying ele-
ment- The next step is to take liquid
food land that is Postum Food Coffee
that has in it the elements nature re-
quires to change the blood corpuscles
from pale pink or white to rich red,
and good red blood builds good strong
and healthy cells in place OF the broken
down cells destroyed by coffee. With
we'll boiled Postum Food Coffee to shift
to, both these steps are easy and pleas
ant. The experience Of Georgian
proves how important both are.
'From 1872 to the year 1900 my wife
and had both been afflicted with sick
or nervous headache and at times we
suffered untold agony. We were coffee
drinkers and did not know how to get
away from it, for the habit is hard to
quit.
But In 1900 / read of a case similar
to ours where Postum Coffee was used
in place of the old coffee and COM
plete cure resulted, so | concluded to
get some and try it.
''The result was, after three days
use Of Postum in place Of the coffee
never had symptom of the old trouble
and in five months l had gained from
145 pounds to 1913 pounds.
"My friends asked me almost daily
what wrought the change. My answer
always is, leaving off coffee and drink
ing Postum in it's place.

been benefited by Postum.

SOME WAYS OF THE WORLD.
How Some Women Keep Their Youth in
Spite of Years.

What Is it that keeps people young? is
question difficult to answer. But that
there Is great difference between persons
belonging to the same generation when
they reach the period of life called middle
age is very apparent. In fact, nowadays
not few women of 80 seem younger and
LOOK younger than many who are IN their
GUS: Youthfulness as a quality is almost
as intangible an attribute as charm, and
as difficult to analyze. Ut comes from
within quite as much as from without,
ana Is spiritual as well as q material
inheritance, for it is obvious that the
merely well preserved woman whose COM
plexlon, hair, teeth, figure, ETC., are still
good, is not necessarily young for her
years-ln fact some contemporary whose
charms have not stood the ravages OF
time nearly as well may be far more truly
youthful. Prolonged youthfulness, there
Eore, seems to owe it's continuity partly,
az least, to some inner fire that shines
knrough the outer cuticle, so to speak, and
permeates the personality of its fortunate
possessor with its lightness. People who
ENJOY life" as the saying is, providing, OF
course, that they do not go to excess in
any way, remain young much longer than
tnose Who have sQuieter tastes. Living on
excitement, if spleasurable, does not ap-
pear to be Injurious, as is generally sup
posed. On the contrary, taken moder-
areIy, excitement ITO temperament that
Graves it, is q necessity. A woman who
loves society life generally keeps young
much longer than one who leads purely
domestic existence. "A fondness for sports
is reJuvenating. A keen interest i'll out
sue Things is a preventive against aging
prematurely. The gregarious instinct
helps one to keep in touch with youth.
and SO on-in short, person who wishes
to keep young during the otherwise dreary
period Of middle age should be mindful
of all these things and many others, and
appearance and good spirits, there is no
reason why one should not feel young at
30 years Of age and over.-New York

A FORTUNE FOR APARTMENTS.
New York Heiress Pays $4,000 Annually
for Fifteen-Room Flat.

Miss Faith Moore, seeking an apart
she might live in transformations style, has
selected one Of fifteen rooms and FIVE
bathrooms at the hitherto unprecedented
rental of $4,000 year. The building
is at 1877 Fifth avenue, the entire sixth
floor of which Miss Moore and her aunt
are to occupy. Several millions were her
inheritance from her father, John God
frey Moore, senior member Of the firm
Of Moore & Schley, who died in 1899.
She is about rs years old. Her sister
married Lieut.-Col. Arthur Lee Of the
British army, VINO was attached to the
British legation in Washington. Miss
Moore's favorite diversion is her library.
One thing which she likes about her pros
pectlve home is that there will be room
for her collection of several thousand vol
umes.
Miss Moore's rental amounts to about
$1SS.46 week, $41.21 q day and $1.63
an hour, and experts say it is the highest
price ever paid for an apartment in this
city. The highest known price was $12,
600 paid for one apartment in the Bolken-
hayn. Double apartments in the Navarro
bring $4,000, and there are suites in the
Tiffany building at Madison avenue and
Seyenty-second street which rent from
$4,000 to $4,000 year. The Misses
Calender and De Forest, who long lived
IN one Of the Tiffany apartments, are
said to have paid $4,000 year Pri-
vate houses in the exclusive parts Of the
city may be had from $4,000 to $4,000.
The home Of John d. Rockefeller, Jr., is
rented furnished for $4,000 a year.
