ALL Other stockmen Herd With the
New Association.
The National Live Stock association
was rent in twain recently by the adop-
ton Of a new constitution, which ad-
mitted the packers to membership, and
provided an open door through which
the railroads of the country might at
any time become factors in the con
troll of the organization.
The cattlemen, horse and swine own
ers, together with representatives Of
some of the AFFILIATED industries, re-
fused to agree to the new constitution
and withdrew when they considered its
adoption probable, and formed q new
organization under the name of the
American Stock Growers association,
whose aim it will be to WELD a domi-
mating influence in the interest Of the
cattle growers.
Roughly speaking, the sheep grow
ers, commission men and the stock
yards interests remained with the Ma
tional Live Stock association, and the
actual growers of all other animals for
the market have gone with the new as

Deer Ate Up His Turnips.

A farmer at Fibre, in the upper pen
Ursula, has a grievance which he has
laid before the Secretary Of State. In
a letter to the department he says:
II want to explain to you that the
deer have eaten all my turnips. I had
two acres Of turnips and now l have
not got a turnip. aud they have de-
stroyed two acres of my peas. They
have made a complete sweep of both
and I can prove 1t If necessary. Now,
gentlemen, If you are gentlemen, as 1
suppose you are, you will act like men
with me and pay me for their damage.
l value the peas at $15 an acre and
the turnips at $40 al acre. Now, gen.
tlemen, If you do not pay me some
thing for the grain and roots I will put
an end to more deer than all the hunt
ers from the lower peninsula. Now,
1 would like to explain the matter to
you. They do not mind a scarecrow
in the least. Now, the game laws say
deer can not be killed only In Novem,
Der. Do you suppose a man has got
to let his crop be destroyed about it
Now, 1 have nothing to feed my hogs

The growth of public interest in

Idaho, is manifest in the recent or
in Spokone Of the north
west section of the National Irrigation
association.
AS a branch of the national organi-
the purpose of the section is to
educate the people of Washington and
Idaho to the necessity for irrigation
in these states, Is a factor in their
final commercial and industrial supre-
macy, and to influence congress,

adequate sums from the general irri-

projects in this field.
There will be a convention Of the

The reclamation fund at present is
1927, 900, 900, of which the state of Wash
ington has contributed, through sales
of government lands, in the neigh.
borhood of So, SOC, 900. What the Sec
ton does hope to do is to secure an
annual appropriation of one OF two
million dollars.
Five acres Of good land under irri
cation, properly cultivated, will afford
a comfortable support for a family Of
five. Raw irrigable land, with perpet
ual water right, rarely sells for less
than 500 per acre.. Irrigation null
tiplies the productivity of the soil
and annual profits of from 500 to $500
per acre are not uncommon.
For the sake of conservatism, it is
safe to assume that the average tract
in the state af Washington will moi
ultimately exceed 20 acres; that eacf
tract will support five persons in com

Trying to take it? They won't take

down to the bank yesterday to open
an account. I had two weeks sal
airy to deposit. Before they would

wanted me to tell them who l was and
why I had a right to any money Of

piciously over his glasses and told me

said 1 was as to age. He asked me
how long 1 had been living here and a

the improvements will be at least $50
to the acre; that the net annual profits
on the land will average SIS to the
acre; and, finally, that the present
value of the states arid lands Is NOM
inal, and the annual acre profit a bag
atelle compared to possible future
profits.
Applying these figures to that part of
the Big Bend project that will come
under the Occur d'Alene system, the
following is deduced:
First, the irrigation of 1,5O0, 900 acres
of semiarid land in the Big Bend coun-
try should increase the rural popula-
ton of the state by $4,000. Accord
ing to the rule Of political economy,
that for every 1000 persons engaged in
a. given pursuit there will be 1000 in
other callings directly supported there
by, it would also increase the urban
population by 1885, 900 making a total of
75o, 900 as a direct result of a single
enterprise. An increase of 750,0 Dol
would double the present population OF
the state.
Second, the irrigation Of 100000
acres of semiarid land in the Big Bend
country should increase the taxable
property Of the state by approximately
$225, 900, 900, an amount nearly equaling
the assessed valuation Of all taxable
property in the state today.
Third, the irrigation of $500, 00(
acres Of semiarid land in the Big Benz
country should cause the distribution
of more than 500, 100000 in annua
profits to tillers of the soil in the dis
trict-an amount exceeding three times
the cost of developing the system.
