THE WHEAT CROP.

The surprisingly bad feature of the
government winter wheat report just
issued, is the heavy decline in acre
age, which brings the total area now
Since last fall no less than 1882, 700
acres of the original total have been
abandoned, farmers having plowed it
up very largely, while yet there was
time to SOW other crops, the wheat not
promising we'll enough to warrant let
ting it stand. This is greater aban-
donment than the grain trade has ex-
pected the report to show, and it
makes it a very bullish statement.
AS partial offset to this the condition
is found to have been maintained
through April, which was another sur
prise. The trade had figured upon a
drop of IS to "A, but the figure stands
unchanged from that of April 1 at 1876
We are then along into May, having
started the month with a winter wheat
acreage of 1877 per cent. less than har-
vested last year, and a condition, 1911
points lower. Last year we raised
401, $4,000 bushels of winter wheat.
The present promise is for 10000, 900
to $50, 000. 900 bushels
Our total wheat production last
year was 637. 1922, 600 bushels, of which
236. 10000 bushels were spring wheat.
If We are to equal it this year we must
raise 277,000,OO0 to $4,000, 600 bushels
of spring wheat. This is possible, but
from present reports seems not at all
probable. That We are in for a total
wheat crop considerably under last
year in any case is now the indication
AS to the effect upon prices it is
| hard to say. It is probable that while
| there will be the continued changes
| of the day and the usual week to week
variations of few cents. the decided
| trend of the market will not be clear
until the spring situation is little
| more definite. Bullish as the winter
| wheat report is in itself, it is not tC
be overlooked that it has been dis
| counted, in some part, at least.

HAVE YOUR FARM VACCINATED

Have you had your farm vaccin-
ated? If not, you should proceed to
have it done at once.
Science has done a great deal for
the farmer. 1t has killed the bugs and
worms that prey on his crops; it
has treated his animals when sick and
saved their lives; it has experimental
with seeds and raised the quality and
quantity of their yield; it has done a
great many things to help him achieve
success. The latest service of spe-
cial interest of which we have heard
is noted in the National Geographic
Magazine, where it is shown that the
process of inoculating sterile ground
and making it bring forth the fruit in
abundance is an easy task. Inocula-
ton to prevent smallpox, diphtheria,
rabies, etc, we know about, but it is
not quite as mysterious as the inocu-
lation of old worn-out soils to make
them fertile.
Certain germs make for fertility of
the soil. They are collected or gener-
ated by the department of agriculture,

Commercial Club Sending Out De-
scriptive Pamphlets.

At the request of the general pas
senger agent of the Union Pacific
railway company, Secretary John Nc
Donald of the Walla Walla CONNER
cial club, is sending to the numerous
land and immigration agents of the
company a large number of pamphlets
describing the wonderful resources of
the Walla Walla valley. Much good
advertising of this section of the coun-
try will be accomplished in this man
ner. The agents of the Union Pacific
are doing splendid work in the east
among the prospective western set
tiers, and Walla Walla county will
probabl secure it's share of immigra-
ton this year.

lilo a portage railway is badly needed.
1t would pay for itself in lower freight
rates and increased profits for farm
ers and shippers within two years and
it is likely that it would be used for
at least ten years before being super
seeded by the canal. A commission APP
pointed by the governor of Oregon has
in hand the cOndemning of a right of
way for the railroad. but for some I'M
accountable reason, the commission
has done nothing but talk. The land
over which the portage road must pass
belongs to the oregon Railroad &
Navigation Company and naturally
that powerful corporation is not maxi
ing it easy for the commission. 1t is
to be hoped that the commercial clubs
will be able to spur the commission to
action.

IN 200 ACRE LOTS.

1t is the intention of Land Com
missioner Pratt to open for settle
ment in a short time some four thou
sand acres of land known as Pupukea

400 acres will be maintained for the
protection of the water sources.
The tract will be divided into 200
acre lots and will be offered to bona
fide cultivators probably on the q
year lease system with right to sub
sequent purchase The land is well
watered and will be easily available for
small farmers. An application to have
have the land cut up into 500 acre al
lotments has been refused by the com

ORIGIN OF THE HANSON.

The hansome was the invention of
Joseph Hanson, the architect of the
birmingham town hall. But the two
wheeled cab which he patented in 1884
little resembles the vehicle which now
bears his name. 1t had a square, sedan
chair-shaped body, hung between two
wheels nearly eight feet high The dri-
ver's seat was in front as also was the
door; the fare entered the cab between
the wheel and shaft. The modern han
som was adapted from this original
by Messrs. Gdllet & Chapman. 1t is a
peculiarly English vehicle and no for
eign nation has ever comprised the
logged courage of the Briton who can
sit calmly inside it.

; THE YOUNGEST KING

The youngest king IN the world is
Daudi Shua, king of Uganda, who is
now about eight. He holds his court
seated on a scarlet throne, with a leo
pard skin mat under his feet, and
bearing in his hand a toy gun. The
British exercise h prOtectorate over
the young king and his kingdom, and
have established for him sort Of Par
laiment, which he opens regularly with
much pomp. Little Daudi Chui speaks
English and gives state dinners at
which there Is curious mixture OF Afri-
can and European foods and customs
though the royal table is supplied WITH
fine linen, cut glass and silver brought
from London.

MISFORTUNE FOR SHAKESPEARE.

woman acquaintance: "Vain as well as
vulgar minded, she professed to have
high admiration Of Shakespeare and
was partial to reading his plays aloud,
and considered that she detained the
speeches extremely well. On one oc-
cassion after charging upon her re-
verence for him, she ended by saying:
"Ah I often wish that he were alive,
and that l had him here. How we would
enjoy one anothers conversation"

Lucius Calm and j. p. Fink, the
latter proprietor of a gents furnishing
goods store on Railroad avenue, had
a misunderstanding Wednesday af-
ternoon and decided to settle their
difficulty la JetfrieS Fitzsimmons
style. Not wishing to violate the city
ordinance which prohibits fstic en-

agreed to 90 beyond the corporate
limits and pull off the bout. a large
crowd went out beyond the bridge
leading to the oil field to witness the
fun, and the spectators to man re-
port having had their moneys worth.
The fight only lasted a few rounds,
and Fink was awarded the decision.
Fink rained heavy blows about the
head and face of his antagonist, while
it is said that most of the swift labs
and uppercutS of Calm went wide OF

"The Sunset Express" the newly
equipped through train on the South
ern Pacific, arrived in San Antonio
for the first this morning from New
Orleans and is undoubtedly the finest
equipped train that ever came in the
city.
Many of the coaches are entirely
new and the old ones have been COM
pletely overhauled.
One Of the features of the new train
is a special observation car for the
accommodation of the travellers The
car is extra long and is lIxuriously
finished. About one-fourth of the car
is an observation room. 1t is almost
a house of glass and furnished with
the finest Of movable chairs.
At the other end of the car along
one side are a number Of tables at
which drinks are served, while at the
other side by the very large windows
are tables and chairs where the trav-
elers can write or otherwise occupy
themselves.
This is only one of the many cars
that are to be added to this train in
order to enhance the comfort of the
