Ever Hear Of "seotty" and His Record
Breaking Rider

The story, briefly told. is this: Wal
ter Scott, the Death Valley gold miner
made the trip from Los Angeles to
Chicago last summer on a special
train over the Santa Fe" in less than
Is hours. That whirlwind train cost
him more than $4,000. 1t was the
fastest long distance run over noun
tains and plains ever made on any
American railway. 1t demonstrated
beyond dispute that the Santa Fs
track, equipment and employees are OF
the dependable kind. Probably you
wouldn't care to ride SO fast. You pre-
fer the luxury Of our three trains from
Utah and Colorado to Everywhere

Match Prices Advanced,

Owing to the troubles in Russia, the
Austrian manufacturers Of matches
find it impossible to procure the neces.
sary quantities Of Russian poplar wood
with which the so-called Swedish
matches are made.
The largest Austrian match fac.
tories have been obliged to reduce
their production on this account. As
in addition to this, the cost of other
materials required in the manufacture
of matches has increased and the
workmen demand higher wages than
formerly, all manufacturers have made
an increase Of $1.02 per 1000 sacks in
tho price of Swedish" matches.-N,

MARRIED PEOPLE LIVE LONG
State Of Matrimony Conducive to Good
Old Age.


Marriage is an institution highly
conducive to the health of both hus-
band and wife, says American Medi-
cine. Statistics prove that among
married men over 20 years OF age and
women over 40 the mortality rate is
far less than among those who remain
single Among the widowed and di.
vorced the mortality is exceptionally
great. Suicides among the unmarried
are much more numerous than among
the married. The matrimonial state
promotes temperance in every form.
Furthermore, the probable duration of
life of married man of 80 exceeds
that Of his unmarried brother by five
years, and the wife may expect to live
one year longer than single woman
Of the same age.

DOUBLE TRACK, KENNEWICK tt
HOVER.

Between Kennewick and Hover,
tor distance of twelve miles in
Benton county, the North Bank
will be given double track. Orders
for the double tracking of this
section of the road have been issued
by President Hill Of the Great
Northern.
The building of the additional
track was decided upon in order to
eliminate the necessity of having so
many switches along the river.
When the grain shipping season is
on in full blast President Hill holds
that it would be more economical
to have a double track than innum-
erable switches.
Both tracks will be built and
completed at the same time.

PRIEST RAPIDS POWER.

William Filey has sold his 100
acre farm on the Columbia river at
Lower Priest Rapids to the Han
ford Power & Irrigation Co. of Sc
attic. The price is not made pub
lie but is supposed to be in the
neighborhood of $50. 900, says the
Ellensburg Localizer.
The company is composed of a
number of leading capitalists who
propose to pnt in a large pumping
plant for the purpose of pumping
water from the Columbia river for
irrigating the arid lands on the west
side of the stream. They also ex-
rect to erect large electric plant
aud will furnish power to the land
owners in that section who in turn
will put in plants for pumping the
water and irrigating their farms.
The Filey ranch lies along the
west shore of the Columbia at the
lower rapids and controls the most
accessible means of reaching the
vast amount of energy that can be
harnessed and made to do service
for man. The new enterprise is
hailed with delight by the farmers
along the Columbia and the farms
which now barely yield living
will be capable ofbeing transformed
into veritable storehouses Of wealth.

o.ys FOR ITSELF IN SINGLE
WEEK.

The fruit growers OF the state OF
Washington are awakening to the
,,lue Of caunery plants. Scarcely
dav passes but a delegation from
anne part Of the of the state visits
.he cannery of the Puyallup & Sum-
oer Fruit Growers Associ.tio. at
puvallup to ascertain how the busi-
ness is carried on.
The raspberry season just closing
has been a record-breaker as far as
hi, valley is concerned. While
,he final footings have not yet been
made, the association has handled
-s 900 crates of red raspberries, as
against a. 900 crates in 1905.
President w. H. Paulhamus, of
] tbe association, has pointed out in
u.st years the necessity of the as
,eciation having its own cannery.
The wisdom of his advice has been
proved by this seasons experience.
The association contracted with the
Webet- Bussel Canning Company,
TO whom the cannery has been leas-
ed fot 4 term of FIVE years. to sell it
al the soft red raspberfies at 81
cents per pound. Owing to unfav-
or.ble growing conditions this sea
sons berries have not good carry
ing qualities.
On account Of q shortage ofpiek-
ersa large per cent Of the growers
have been unable to have their Der.
ries picked on tine. This allowed
the fruit to become overripe aud un-
Fl, for shipping. Without the can
merry these berries would have been
an absolute loss. AS it was. they
have been a source of considerable
revenue to the growers.
During the week ending July IS,
the association received for soft ber-
! ries turned into the cannery. $7,935.
) 20. After deducting from this
amount the cost of the picking at
- cents psr crate, there is enough
left the growers to more than build
aduplicate of the present extensive
plant, which cost something over
$4,000. Thus i'll Que week alone
Of the canning season sufficient prof
it has been realized TO cover the
original cost of the plant after all
expenses OF handling the berries
have bsen deducted.
The week preceding the receipts
were $5.9Io.I2. The total amount
received for cannery red raspberries
iorthe season will be about SIC, 900.
This is for fruit that but for this
means Of disposition would have
fosted on the ground.
