A Big Land Transfer.

One of the biggest land sales that
has taken place here for some time
both in the number of acres transferred
and the amount involved, was made
last Saturday. The land sold was
the Lundy-Dunlap-Crowell wheat
ranch in Horse Heaven, comprising
2OSO acres, This land has been one of
the best paying wheat ranches in the
hills. The price paid was $50 900.
The purchasers are J. o. Long and j.
B. Warren. These gentlemen are now
negotiating with w. r. and II. S.
Anon for lots in Amon's addition up
on which they will erect fine resi-
dences for their families and expect to
make their homes in this city where
they will be near their farm land.
They will make numerous improve
ments on the ranch.

Boom the Exposition.

People in the east have for the most
part very vague and uncertain ideas of
the great Pacific Northwest. Prob
ably not one out o. a thousand knows
that Washington, with its immense
territory, has population of 100000
people They do not know thai Wash
ington has all the natural resources of
Pennsylvania, and harbors as good, if
not better than those of New York,
with population one-eight as great as
Pennsylvania and one-ninth as great
as New York, 1t is to acquaint the
eastern and middle west with such
salient facts as these that the Lewis
and Clark exposition was conceived,
and people on the ''inside" here are of
the opinion that Washington will
make great mistake if she does moi
do all in her power to tell visitors OF
her greatness.

KenueWick Gets Chilly.

Kennewick yesterday experienced
the heaviest snow that has visited this
section for many years. not that we
have n great deal of snow now. The
fall began about ten O'Clock yesterday
and continued throughout the day
and last night, and as the thermom-
eter had Teen slightly below the freez-
ing point for several days, the ground
was cold enough to let the snow re-
main till today we have the appearance
of a real northern locality, and to make
US feel more like other northern dis
tricts the ice cutters are at work on
the back water bayous at the river en-
deavoring to get a supply of ice- The
ice is about six inches thick and is
principally composed of drift cakes
that come down the river from the
far north and are whir1ed into these
bayous by the current and there form
solid mass. The boys and girls have
been making the most of this ice for
the past two or three days and their
efforts to secure skates are in some
cases amusing. The weather has just
been cold enough to be pleasant, and
will be highly beneficial to The trees
and vines, while the snow is of meal
culable value.

ALASKA'S VAsTNESs.
Our Big Territory Equal In Size ia
Twelve Great states.

OANeAh SlAtCHs
DO you know that Nome, Alaska. is
300 miles west of Honolulu? Do you
know that Alaska has almost two and
half times as much coast line as the
rest of the United States?
II you start at Seattle and go up the
coast through 400 miles of Canadian
inland waters to the Portland canal
you will come to that imaginary line
that the Alaskan boundary commission
decreed as the place where Alaska be-
gins. This inland sea is very like the
tiords of the coast of Norway and des-
tined in time to become one of the
worlds great pleasure resorts, and
when you know this region you will
deplore the lack of diplomacy which
lost us this picturesque coast line and
left the Alaska of today detached terri
tory. In very truth the cry of 1915 of
'5440 or fight was right.
At the Portland canal Alaska begins,
and as you sail up the thousand miles
of this wonderful inland sea, of scenic
pS1ulN anu SidllttGuA suIpdSSluS any
thing in the world, you are in south
eastern Alaska, which includes the is
lands along the coast and the mainland
from the shore line to the summit of
the coast range as far north as Mount
st. Elias. From the summit of this
high peak the boundary line between
Alaska and British Yukon territory
runs directly north to the frozen
ocean," as the old Russian treaty called
It,
The territory of Alaska is about
equal TO the combined states of Michi-
gan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Min
nesota, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and
Kentucky. Maps are deceptive for
comparison unless they are drawn to
the same scale, and unfortunately
maps of Alaska are generally drawn to
a small scale But put Alaska on the
United States, and it will extend from
Savannah, Ga, to Los Angeles, Cal
The climatic conditions differ as great

The following recipe for beeswax
can be vouched for; After the combs
have been put through an extractor or
crushed and strained through a thin
cloth the wax is put in copper or
porcelain lined kettle, with cold water
enough to cover 1t, and boiled for half
an hour, or longer If 1t seems neces-
sary. When the wax is taken from
the stove 1t is strained and poured In
vessel previously dipped in cold
water. To make a round cake Of bees
wax pour the melted wax In a bowl
that has been dipped in cold water.
To make wax sheets use board three
eighths of an inch thick, dampened
with warm water, then dipped in the
melted wax two or three times. The
board is next put in water to cool for
a little while, after which 1t Is taken
out, the edges trimmed with sharp
knife and two sheets Of wax peeled Off.
To make these wax sheets the wax

An upheaval of volcanic vio-

Tex, oil field on last Saturday at
the section near the Swayne-Un-
derwood wells.
4 solid column of earth 70
feet in diameter was thrown 2OO
feet in the air. The derrick was
torn to atoms, and drilling ma
chinery on the edge of the crater
was buried from sight. Mud lava
followed the eruption, filing the
chasm and running over in large
streams from it.
Accompanying the eruption
was an immense volume OF gas
