WOULD COST S3iOO.
Expense of Changing River Channel
mt Milton

In the commissioners court today
the people of Milton presented petit
tion asking that the court change the
channel of the Walla Walla river at
Milton so as to place it where it was
before the flood.
During the recent high water the
river left its old channel and is now
running closer to town and is missing
the bridge entirely. At the instance
of Milton people Charles L. Swain. the
engineer, has prepared plans for the
work of changing the river course and
the same have been submitted to the
court. In his estimate Mr.. Swain
places the cost of the work at S34OO.
Although the bids for the construc-
tion OF the two bridges or Wild Horse
near Athena were opened Yesterday.
no action has vet been taken regarding
the same by the court, as the com
missioners have been waiting for one
of the bidders to appear in person.
1t is possible that the court may yet
decide to place steel bridges on Wild
Horse instead of the wooden structures
that were advertised for Should they
do so the commissioners would be but
following the policy regarding the
bridges on the UmatiIla.
The two petitions asking for roads
across the Umatilla reservation have
been accepted by the court. and the
matter is now up to the department
at Washington for approval.

Our summer fallows as now ham

multiplication of the weed pests.
Among the weeds that are multiply

weed revels in rich ground and is
found growing quite abundantly in
some of our smaller draws. The seed
is raedily scattered about by running
water in the spring, as they have lit

them to float readily.
This weed is a rank grower and
tends to crowd out other things rather
than to be crowded out. 1t is value
less for feed and in the meadow 1t is
hard on the moving machines. When
once established 1t is hard to get rid
