Barley Badly Pinched.

Wheat and barley are being receiv-
ed freely at the different warehouses
in this county, and while the wheat
seems not to have been much hurt by
the hot winds, the barley did not fare
so we'll. one prominent grain dealer
states that from three-fourths to four
fifths of the barley of this county this
year will class only a feed barley. OF
course the good brewing barley grains
can be separated from the shrunken
noes by running through a cleaner,
but with so great percentage of the
crop of No. grade the price of brew
ing barley must naturally be high and
the feed barley proportionately low
in price in omparison.-Dayton Cour-

Land Frauds on Colville Reservation.

Land Frauds on COlville Reservation.
Work on the governments investi-
cation of land frauds on the south
half of the Colville Indian reservation
is progressing, and all the material
will probably be collected by the mid
die of this month. Assistant Agent
Brighton has made abstracts from the
Ferry county records to secure in
formation for prosecution by the fed
eral authorities, and +. N. Goodwin,
general agent OF the land office at
Washington, d. c., has been engaged
on the case for some time and is said
to rave succeeded In collecting evil
deuce to support suits in court.
The investigation was instituted on
a complaint received from the resi-
dents Of Ferry county, on the east side
of the Shermand ridge, and in the
Columbia river valley, that large
number of outside spectators were
taking up valuable fruit lands on the
sout hhalf of the reservation on the
pretense that they are placer claims
Most Of the claims are said to con-
tain no gold and to have been taken
with 'he sole purpose of securing
lands for horticulture.
Trouble is looked for by the govern
ment investigators because of the
ease with which the claims may be
salted and a fine showing Of mineral
made For this reason the officials
have been working in secret for some
time.-Spokesman Review.

Try to Solve All,aIi Problem,

C. G. Elliott, drainage expert of the
United States agricultural department
Is in Yakima to examine lands that
have been "taken" by alkali. He will
also investigate the drainage work
that has heen done in the valley. The
agricultural department is co-operat-
ing with communities and individuals
with view to solving the question OF
"alkalied" lands. Experiments were
conducted here three years ago by
Mr.. Elliott. and 1t is his purpose to
continue them during the coming
year.
The greatest problem in the Y"ki-
ma Valley is not how to get enough
water to irrigatc the land. but how to
get rid of 1t after It has once soaked
into the ground.-Yakima Republic
