ToIrrignte 10000 Acres.

A member of the state land board
stated the other day there seems to be
no doubt but that the board will
grant the petition of the Idaho lrri-
CATION company, limited, for the seq
Iega ion of about 10000 acres in
Blaine and Lincoln counties under
the Carey act, says the Boise States
man. This is the proposition which
has been under consideration for
some time and which is being pro-
NOTED by S. d. Boone, Charles Herne
and P. +. Horne and others of Hail
ey. The scheme is backed by New
York capital, Mr.. Boone being the
only Idaboan on the board of diIec-
tors. The officers of the company are
W. P. O'Conner, president; Charles
Hernshein, vice president AMI gene, :
al manager; Theodore l.. Peters, sec
retary annd treasurer, all of New
York Messrs Boone, Hernshein and
Horne are now in Boise, perfecting
the final arrangements. "The gentle
men who are iathering this enter-
prise, said the member of the state
land beard, "have been able to make
d very satisfactory showing. All that
remains is for the state engineer to
look over the ground and make his
report. Governor Gooding is we'll ac-
quainted with the territory and be
feels satisfied that the sbowings made
by the promoters are correct. :" The
irrigation project is reservoir plan,
the intention being to build dam on
the lower Wood river ITO feet high.
This will back the water up about lC
miles aud furnish reservoir contain.
ing Is, acre-feet of water Malad
river is also taken into consideration
and by little more expenditure
nearly twice the amount of water can
be stored The plans call for the ex'
penditure of approximately 81, 400, OU.
OF the land to be irrigated there are
45, l22 acres lying to the east OF Big
Wood river and about ITO, 900 acres
lying west and north of that river.
Most of the land is iu Lincoln county,
but the reservoir is to be in Blaine

Prime Prices DrOD.

A special to the Oregonian from
Salem. Ore., says: Step by step, the
prune market in Oregon has dropped
down from 2b-cent basis early in
the season to Ia cent basis now.
Whether the boottn price has been
reached is a question upon which
opinions differ and which will prob
ably be determined chiefly by the
course growers pursue in selling.
Eastern jobbers are confident that the
price will be no higher, and some ol
them assert that it will go lower be-
fore the crop is marketed. The prices
quoted are those paid to growers.
Packers get one half cent more.
Early sales of the Willamette Valley
Prune association we're made at as
high as pa cents, or 214 cents for the
grower and at this price and quar-
ter of cent less, about 40 cars were
disposed of by the association fol
October aud November shipment.
Between this figure and the present
price about half the Oregon crop has
been sold and the market seems now
to be rather inactive Some sales are
being made, but growers who did moi
sell at the higher prices seem disposed
TO wait now for further developments

PENNILESS SWEDE
WORTH MILLIONS

From being penniless and destitute
three years ago to fortune and an
interest In a mine that is now pTovid-
ing him and his partners-three in
number-with an income of S., 600 a
day lie the story OF Sam Samson, a
Swede, who arrived at his former
home In Hood River recently. Three
years ago Samson, who operated u
shingle mill near here, Of which he
was owner, went bankrupt and Nas
without the price of meal, Now
he IL heIe for the purpose of paying
his debts. In his sudden affiuence be
has not forgotten those who we're
friendly to him in his hour of need
and is repaying them from the ricl.
earnings of mine of which he is now
part owner ut Nome, Alaska.
Samson went bI oke and worked his
way to tue gold fields Of Alaska,
where, after many hardships, he il
amassiug fortune. A large nugget
taken from his mine amt attached to
stickpin adorns his shirtfront and
he has given several aller ones to
intimate friends as evidences of his
regard. Photographs of the mine ex-
hibited by Samson show complete
mining outfit in operation, including
pumping plant. These are not car
ried by him for the pupose of selling
stock, as the Cyus Noble mine, the
name by which it is known, is close
corporal on and has no stock for sale.
Unlike most of the goldseekers at
Nome who satisfied themselves with
trying to gain fortune by washing
the sands of the seashore, Sampson
and his partners sunk shaft and
prospected for gold bearing quartz.
At a depth of 100 feet they struck a
vein that has paid them as high as
S5, 600 day and bids fair to make
him millionaire. journal.

The TnmaiN Right.

A friend of the writer had fine
prospect only few days ago with 2,
900 vigorous tomato plants, and now
not cnly are the plants blighted,. but
his hopes of anything like crop have
followed suit,
heard of one man in Yakima val
ley who had four acres of tomatoes,
and nearly all are gone with blight
and the complaint is general, with
few exceptions. Now, the few excep.
iions. we venture to say, are where
tie ground has been we'll mannred
and with some shade. 1t is now con-
ceded that nothing viii so overcome
the tomato blight as to have ricf
ground with little shade. Then, Il
we'll cultivated and irrigated where If
riagtion is necessary, thus forcing
rapid growth, the vigor OF the plan'
will outgrow the enemy.
This theory | can confirm by my
own experience. Three years ago
had a splendid crop of tomatoes. lTh'
winter before | had a number OF hogs
1 kept them in a small yard, anC
early in the spring cleaned up thai
yard, putting the cleanings onto my
tomato patch and blowing them un
der. Tahre was some hen manure

captured Saturday night by Sheriff
Chrisman and Deputy Ed. Woods.
He had barricaded bis house, and to
avoid bloodshed a clever ruse was
worked. q. Bonomi, cattle buyer
on friendly terms with Allery, was
sent ahead and coaxed Allery to the
barn on pretonse of buying a calf,
The officers, concealde in the brush,
leaped out and cut Allery off from

kept, and handcuffed him.
Examination of the house disclosed

PATRONS OF
HUSBANDRY

The society of Patrons of Husband
~ vas founded at Washington, d. g..
in December, 1876, to advance the in
terests of husbandry. The chief
founder Of the society was 0. II. Kel-
10y. clerk in the department of az
ricaltrie, depnled by the government
in 500 to AXE tour or inspection
TIN uugh the southern states, and to
report upon their agricultural condi-
tions aud the best means of improve
ing them.
The widespre d Generalization of
the far / ing population here con
yinced Kelley that organization was
vitaly necessary, as yell for the far
mers' self protection ~ for their ad-
vaucement by the use of scientific
methods Of cultivation aud the enact
ment of laws favorable TO them. Up
on his return to Washington, there
fore, he, with six others, established
the "National Grange of Patrons OF
Husbandry. "The otheU founders
we're: William Saunders, j. R.
Thompson, A. B. Gresh, f. M. Nc.
Dowell, l.. M. Tlimble aud William
M. Ireland.
The organization was secret, and
membership VISA limited TO those ac-
tually engaged in agriculture. Women
we're admitted on an equality with
men and the feature, novel at that
time, had much to do with the soci-
ety's rapid growth. The constitution
provided for local district, state and
national organizations, for the confer
ing of degrees, and for the election I
women to office.
Aided by the effolts of Kelley, who
WAS Jealous promoter, the society,
after few years, gained rapidly in
numbers and influence. In 1873 there
we're l3, 900 subordinate oranges, and
in 1875 the total membership reached
100000. At about this time the
grange had become prominently iden-
titled with legislature measures, both
state aud national, inCended to curb
railroad and trusts, to prevent dis
elimination in rates and prices, and
in other ways to advance the farmers
interes s. Although supposedly a
nonpartisan and nonpoliticl order, a
good deal of immature legislation was
laid at the grange's door, and it ma
terially declined in membership. In
the meantime, however, it has been
largely instrumental in securing the
passage of the interstate commerce
act, the oIemargarine law, the Hatch
act, founding experiment stations,
and the law making the head of the de-
partment of agriculture cabinet
officer. OF late years the social aspect
of the grange has been more largely
developed and it has every promise OF
becoming a growing and important
fact )r in the great agricultui al inter
ests of the country.
