Mapping the Geologic Field.

Pullman, Wash, July 1S.-Professor
s. Shedd, head of the department OF
geology Of the state college. has just
returned from near Mount Carlton,
Wash. where, with a class in field
geology, he has beer doing some very
successful summer work. The class
has been working out the geology of
the Spokane district. Since the end of
June 1t has mapped out over $50 square
miles OF territory, tracing out the geo.
logical formations in the district. The
result OF its work is to be published
by the United States geological survey.
1t goes from here shortly to Snake
river. where 1t will continue investiga-
tions for part Of the summer. Pro-
fessor Shedd will very likely spend the
remainder OF the summer in geological
work, either on the clays of western
Washington or in California.

Rushing the Harvest.

Walla Walla. WASH. July l9.--Both
the Northern Pacific and the .. r, &
N. railways are commencing to mobi-
Aze their grain cars at convenient
points to be able TO handle with ra-
pidity the immense grain crop that is
being harvested and hauled to the
warehouses. These cars are being
placed on all available branch roads
and In transportation centers ready to
be thrown on the main lines when the
first demands are made for shipments
to grain to the export or eastern mar
kets.
Wheat is already being hauled to
Spofford station, between Walla Walla
and Milton. there being nearly 5000
bushels OF the new crop stored there.
No sales have been made. as the mar
ket price for either export or milling
wheat has not yet been established.

NEW METHODS USED az HOLMES
How the Leak in the Market Reports

In the market report scandal continue
to show interesting results. Some of
the methods used by Holmes to convey
information of the coming market re-
ports was ingenious. For instance on
the day when the final figures for the
crop reports were prepared it was the
custom of Statisticinn Hyde, with As
sociate Holmes and several stenogra-
piers to lock themselves in "A room
where they remained until the work
was completed and the results ready to

rushed them onto the telegraph wires

vance information. however. Holmes
devised system OF signals. For in
stance. ne would have n man posted
opposite certain window when. say.
the wheat report was being prepared.
Then ne would lower or raise the win
dow shade as the governments esti-
mate showed an increase or a decrease
of the percentage. Raising the shade
to near the top of the window indicated
remarkable increase. Drawing 1t to
the bottom showed a remarkable de-
crease and lesser movement indi-
Gated changes OF less proportion. He
also had a system OF handkerchief sig

Reardan, Wash, July 1S-An expert
ment by T.. r. Ensor, a prosperous
former of this neighborhood. indicates
that Turkestan alfalfa can be grown
successfully here without irrigation
Mr.. Ensor seeded about five acres to
Turkestan alfalfa last fall. from which
he harvested the first crop about a
week ago. which yielded in the neigh
borhood of three tons to the acre. The
plant grew about four feet in height
and the stand was good. 1t is Some

n Question Of Civilization.

The Japanese Ambassador tx
Paris recently said:
I'VE japanese have for many
generations sent to Europe exquis.
lite lacquer work, delicately carved
figures beautiful embroidery and
many other commodities which
showed how artistic we are. but
but the Europeans described us
as 'uncivilized.' We have recent
ly killed some 10000 Russians,
and every European nation is
wondering at the high condition
of civilization which we have at
tanned.
Our friend, the diplomat, is
wrong when he declares that ia
pan had to establish her claim to
civilization by killing 10000 Rus
slams. Her civilization hasybeen
admitted for years, not because
she built strong navy, but be-
cause she organized the govern
ment that made possible not on
ly that army and that navy, but
a clean, economical and efficient
domestic administration as we'll.
But surely the world may be par
doned some gasps of astonish-
ment at the wonderful perfection
of the military system revealed
by the war. The attainment of
such perfection argues that the
japanese are as likely some day
to excel in industrial science and
in the broader fields of art as
they have already in a sphere
that is purely martial. Elk.

Did you ever think what misery
and woe you brought upon your
friends when you degraded your
manhood by getting drunk? How
it rings in the ears of a loving
wife? How it makes the heart
of a fond mother bleed? How it
brushes out the hope of a father
and brings reproach and shame
upon sisters? Drunk! See him
as he leans against some friendly
house. He stands ready to fall,
unconscious as to his approaching
fate. The wife with fearful eyes
and aching heart, sits at the win
dow to hear her husbands foot
steps; alas! they come not. The
husband, the parent, is drunk,
spending his means of support
for liquor, while his family is
starving for bread, his children
are suffering for clothing. His
friends, one by one, reluctantly
leave him to a miserable fate;
still he continues on. step by step
in drunkenness, until at last he
fills a drunkard's grave. Fathers

To Be a Politician.

An old German farmer. near
LaRose, had a fine son of whom
he was justly proud. He decided
to find out the trend of the boys
mind and adopted a novel method
by which to test him. Slipping
into his sons room one morning
he placed on the table a glass of
whisky, a silver dollar and a Bi-
BILE. Now" said he wen dot
poy comes in if he takes dot toll
lar he's going to be a beeznis
man, if he takes dot Bible he'll
be a preacher, but if he takes dat
whiskey he's no goot and is 60

hid behind the door to see what
he would choose. In came the
boy whlstling, and walked right
up to the table. He picked up
the Bible and put it under his
arm, he put the'dollar in his pock-
ct and picked up the glass of
whiskey and drained it to the
bottom and went smacking his
lips. The old German poked his
head out from the door and ex-
claimed ''Mein Gott, he vas gazing

ing church. They have rever-
ence enough not to disturb the
prayer, but the reading of the
Word of God or the singing of
His praises does not deter them.
This should not be. If people do
not get to church in time to par.
ticipate in the preliminary SER
vices they should stay on the
outside until this part of the
service is finished. The various
secret societies manage things
better. They close the doors
when their. opening ceremonies
commence and the member that
is not there at that time, must
wait on the outside ] until they
are concluded. This prevents
continuous Interruptions and
wonld be a good plan for oul
churches to adopt.
