WHEAT CONVENTION
TO Be HELD
To Study ali Phases of Wheat
Growing, Shipping and
Milling

A wheat convention" for the pur-
pose of studying all matters pertaining
to growing, shipping, milling and the
use of the by-products of grain is to
be held at the State College in connec-
tion with the winter school for farmers
in January next. The matter has been
under consideration by the faculty and
experiment station staff for some time,
and inquiries have been made of mill
ers, farmers, shippers and others in
terested in the wheat industry, and
has received the unqualified indorse-
ment of these.
The state grain commission has un-
animously indorsed the project and
offered its assistance in making it a
success. Farmers who are interested
in growing wheat are urged to attend
this meeting which will be addressed
by experts in the lines of growing,
shipping, milling and feeding the by
products of wheat.
Considerable correspondence was had
by the faculty and station staff with
prominent millers and others interested
in the wheat business of the North
west, before it was decided to hold the
convention, and this is the first an
nouncement given to the press. All to
whom inquiries were addressed have
indorsed the proposition and have prom
ised assistance in making it success.
The railroads will be asked to give re-
dueed rates. The convention will omen
the second week in January, 1906, and
continue one week.
The winter school for farmers will
have several extra features this season
among them being increased facilities
for the dairy school, which opens jan
uary 2 and continues ten weeks. A
ntie refrigerator plant has been ordered
from the East an will be installed bv
January l. This will be used for H.
lustrating the methods of refrigera-
tion, as connected with dairying. Both
the ammonia compression and salt
brine methods of cooling will be shown
by this plant.
In addition to the usual program for
the dairy school, several new subjects
Will be introduced, among them, in
addition to refrigeration, will be milk
condensing, making of ice cream.
pasteurization and the product and
handling Of steriIized milk. The OBJ
ject Of this is to improve the milk
supply of the state, and has the in
dorscment of the state veterinary de-
partment.
Inquiries from all sections of the
Northwest indicate an unusually large
attendance at the dairy school. A
number of women have applied to be
enrolled and it is certain that large
class Of women students will be seen
in this department during the term of
the dairy school.

The school will be in direct charge

ably conducted it during the past two
terms. Mr.. Whitney is a graduate of
the Oregon agricultural college, and
of the Wisconsin Dairy School, and his
practical training, together with his

ORDINANCE NO. l01
Washington

Editor Herald Il beg the favor of
space to correct statement in an edi-
torial in the Pullman Tribune of this
week, which misrepresents me. In an
article upon the ordinance relating to
miners entering certain resorts and
places of business, | am quoted as say
ing in my criticism last Sunday even
ing of said ordinance, that councilmen
Carpenter and Dixon did not vote for
the ordinance. 1t would have been a
very foolish statement inasmuch as
was known to have been present at the
council meeting when this ordinance
was passed and heard both gentlemen
vote for it and the record would have
impeached my statement had | even a
desire to make it. What | did last
Sunday evening, Mr.. Editor, was to
read the item in last Saturdays Her
aid which I followed by reading the
ordinance, after which | criticized the
ordinance ITSELF. | did not enter into
an exhaustive account of the history of
the ordinance and the opposition which
it met before it found the light.

WINTER SCHOOL
FOR FARMERS
State College to Hold Annual Win
ter School for Farmers from
Jan. End to Feb. oath

The State College of Washington
announces the annual winter school for
farmers, to begin Tuesday, Jan. 8,
1906, and continue for eight weeks.
This school is designed to meet the
needs of both the general farmer and
the specialist in some particular line.
The arrangement of the subjects
will be in sections of two weeks each.
During each of these periods promi-
nence will be given to certain partlc-
ular lines of study, so that specialists
wishing to pursue these alone will be
enabled to do so to the best advant-
age and with the least expenditure of
time. Throughout the course there
will be lectures of a more general
character which will be arranged as
may seem advisable. Every member
of the teaching force of the college
will have opportunity to deliver ona or
more lectures to the school, all of the
subject discussed being of practical
nature and calculated to awaken the
interest of those in attendance. In ad-
&c 1ooI,,vo,,c Of =
nence, and practical men from all over
the state are being invited to take
part in the work. 4
The arrangement of the groups is as
follows: January to II, crop prodqc-
tion. This covers lectures on soils,
farm management, and marketing.
Jan. Is to 26, horticulture, fruit grow.
ing, orchard management, gardening
and Horticulture. JAM 90 to Feb. 9,
live stock, breeding, feeding, care and
management of stock. Feb. II to
27, dairying, dairy farming, care and
handling of milk. During the two
weeks from Jan. % to Feb. 2 subjects
of special interest to ladies will be
prominent, such as poultry raising,
Horticulture, domestic economy and
home making.
During the forenoon of each day
three hours will be devoted to lee
lures, and each afternoon to some form
of practical laboratory work related to
the studies of the day. At least once
each week there will be given some
special entertainment or illustrated
lecture for the particular benefit of
those in attendance.
No requirements for admission are
made for those who may wish to enter
the school, No fees are charged nor
examinations given. The nature of
the school may be compared to that of
a continuous farmers institute. 1t is
hoped that many farmers, especially
young men and women, may be able
to attend throughout the entire course.
Many who cannot do this will be en-
abled to attend through one or more
of the periods.
Full information can be obtained by
addressing the Registrar of the col
lege, or E. E. Elliott, Professor of
Agriculture, in charge of the school.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION

AA1A4NhObI 1ANb NOClANAl lIO4N.
Olympia, Nov. Ex-Governor Mead
issued the following proclamation to-
day:
A Proclamation by the Governor:
In the early dawn of our country's
existence our pilgrim fathers intro
duced the custom of setting apart one
day in the year as day of thanksgiv-
ing and prayer in recognition of the
great benefits and manifold blessings
the people have received from the
hands of a generous providence.
In this, the 130th year of our coun-
try independence, it seems especially
fitting that the occasion be observed
with willing hands and grateful hearts,
in the performance of deeds of char
ity, in the enjoyment of neighborly
hospitality, in acknowledgement of the
blessings of material prosperity en-
joyed by the state and nation, in COM
memoration of the historical fact that
to the American people has been given
the opportunity of leading warning ma
tions to an amicable and honorable
settlement of their differences, in rec
ognition of the fact that destitution
and privation are rare in this goodly
country of ours, and that peace and
plenty reign throughout the states of
the Union-therefore, in accordance
with the proclamation of the presi-
dent, |, Albert E. Mead, governor of
the State of Washington, do hereby
designate Thursday, November 30, A.
d. 1905, as Thanksgiving day, and I
recommend that on that day the people
of the state rest from their labors and
devote themselves to thanksgiving and
prayer.
In witness whereof, | have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
state to be affixed at Olympia this 18th
day of November, A. d. 1905.

NO GRAFT IN THIS COMPANY.

The Commissioner of Insurance %
New Jersey has recently completed a
thorough examination of the Mutual
Benefit Life Insurance Co. of Newark,
and the repor. of the examiner is pub
lished in the last issue of the Pelican.
At this time when so much rottenncss
is being brought to light by the exani-
nation of the big" companies which
do their business on the "tontine" or
deferred dividend plan, it is very
refreshing to read a report of one
which is clean, and which shows such
excellent management.
The total salaries paid by the Com
pany during 1904 to all officers ana
about 200 home office employees
amounted to $310,350 This is less
than is paid to six men in some of
the other companies.
The report further says: The
outcome of the correcting was found
to be SO much in favor of the COM
pany as to make their surplus nearly
$350,000 more than shown in the an
nual statement, and that there IS no
improper expenditures and that the
company is managed primarily, and
apparently exclusively, in the interest
of it's policy holders.
Mr. John G. Drewry of Raleigh, n.
c., is State agent for the above named
company. ,

Banner while the flag was raised
by by Cadet Priyates Blackman, Al

ceremony was very, impressive.
The pole is 80 feet high. 1t is hand
somely made and painted white. This
adds much to the 81 looks of the
grounds, and makes things look more
military. The, pole is situated in front
of Main building on the edge Of the
