IRRIGATION on GRAND RoNOE
Oregon Sugar Company Of La Grande
is Planning to Spend 100000
for Reservoir and Plant.

An irrigation scheme representing
an expenditure of over 100000, is
now being planned by the Oregon Su-
gar company, of La Grande, the
scheme including q large reservoir
on the Grand Ronde river above Orc
Dell.
1t is the intention of the sugar beet
company to build a reservoir on the
canyon above Orc Dell for the pur-
pose of storing water for irrigaling
purposes in the beet fields in the vi
entity of La Grande. Canals will be
built about the brow of the hills above
the farming sections and the dry
land which is planted to sugar beets
will thus be highly increased in eff
cheney and made. to yield many times
it's present output of beets.
1t is estimated that about 5000
acres of beet land can be irrigat cd
with the stored waters of the Grand
Ronde without interfering in the least
with the regular flow of the river. The
reservoir will be used to store flood
waters and the regular flow of tie
stream will be allowed to pass the
reservoir at all times.

WITH DRY FARMING.
A. B. Anthony of Near Echo, Reports
He is Successful.

A. B. Anthony, living five miles
south of Echo, has been experimenting
with dry farming the past summer
from a scientific standpoint. Last
winter and spring Mr.. Anthony broke
out % acres of raw land and during
the past season, contrary to the adj
vice of some of his neighbors, he har-
rowed the entire tract seven different
times at intervals Of about a month
between each narrowing. Before the
last heavy rain he had stored up in
this land two feet of moisture, while
all of his neighbors' land was entirely
dry. Since the last rain he has three
feet of wet soil, while all the other soil
in the neighborhood has but about a
foot The entire tract is now sOwn
TO grain. which is up and looking extra
we'll. Mr.. Anthony homesteaded a part
of this land a little over a year ago.
Prior to that time it had been used
as sheep range.

gIMIck IS BACK INTO THE GAME

Whitman VS.. Idaho next Saturday
In Walla Walla and Whitman VS.. w.
ent probabilities Of the ever shifting
football schedule OF the Missionaries.
The damp weather seems to have no
effect on the spirit of enthusiasm for
the coming game which is growing
every hour about the college campus.
Plans of all sorts are being Matched
by the college leaders for one grand
display of college enthusiasm on the
sidelines next Saturday afternoon.
Two rallies have been planned this
week to practice the college yells. foot
ball songs and get up spirit gener-
ally, 1t is expected that enough spirit
will be generated on these occasions
to incapacitate the giants from Moscow
before the referees whistle blows.
Dorsey M. Hill, has consented to
act as referee Of the important con-
test. He and Coach Everett J. Smith
have been REQUESTED To- do the official
act at Pullman a week later, but in
all probabilities he cannot act.
The return Of Ralph Dimick, who
was away from classes for several
days. to his old place at tackle in
practice last night, has put a feeling
of confidence in the Whitman bunch
1t was feared that ne would not play
in the Idaho or Pullman games and
the absence of his 205 pounds of ter
rifle line plunging force would have
almost spelled certain defeat for the
missionaries. AS it is the feeling up
at the compus is of the '1et-em- come
we4are-ready-for EN- variety just
now.
The nice rest since the Washington
contest will put every man in prime
condition by Saturday and there is NO
one who does not believe that there
will be things doing on Ankeny field
that afternoon.

Some Recovery Toward the Cose Which
 Was Irregular.

New York, April 10.-stocks became decidedly weak to-day under what ap- peared to be a raid by an organized bear party in the speculation. The con- tinued stringency of money has been viewed with considerable equanimity by speculative holders of stocks so long as prices held pretty steady or showed occasional signs of advances. But with prices started decisively downward sen timent underwent marked change It was evident that the fear of such a movement had prompted the placing of large stop-loss orders below the mar ket.
 Once the ralding tactics of the bear party had succeeded nforcing prices down to the figures at which these stop-loss orders came into effect, there was quite indiscrminate selling and throwing over of large holdings for what they would bring. The market showed more acute weakness than at any time for several weeks. The firm resistance hitherto shown by stocks to the stringency in the money market has caused belief that extensive spec ulatiye commitments in stocks must be ] playing very little part in the expan- sion of credits which has run up the rate of money, The unexpected dura- tion of the money stringency, however, adds steadily to the burden of the car rying rate and to Encouragement over the prospect of any awakened public demand for stocks such as is relied on to relieve the spectators of their hold ings at a profit. The growth of this feeling helped to make the market vul- nerable to-day. A decided effect seem ed to be produced on sentiment also by the government estimate of the condi- {! tion on April of the winter wheat ] crop. The conditions were poorer than { had been expected and the decided strength resulting in the wheat market dashed the sanguine confidence that was felt in the promising outlook for the crop and the assurance of that po- tent factor in keeping up the tide of 1 prosperity.
 ! There was little change in the money situation, the renewal rate being gen. erally beld at 20 per cent. While the rate yielded early to below that figure, it recovered later to above it and touch ed 25 per cent. again. At one time dur | ing the morning the stock maket was quite generally strong Reading was | advanced on talk of compromise of
 the cral-mining dispute, Amalgamated 1 Copper responded to gossip of a pro- 1 spective dividend increase, But these stocks afterwards were among the 7 weakest of the list, with corresponding effect on the reversal of sentiment. The
 professional character of part of the selling was indicated by the demand to cover shorts, which caused some recov- cry, so that last prices were not at the lowest of the day, although the closing
 tone was irregular again.
 Bonds were easy. Total sales, par value, $2,260, 900.
