FROST FANCTES
By Ernest Neal Lyon

| know OF a wonderful artist
Who works at his own wild VIII
And scatters in richest profusion
The gems OF his magical skill
Here are rivers proudly sweeping;
Here Orient -sapphires glcam;
Here are willows, gray and weeping,
Like a poet 5 pictured dream;
Here are castles of regal splendor
And many q sculptured fame;
Here are features, fond and tender,
All etched on my window-pane.
What a marvellous flight of fancy!
What q delicate rare design,
All, would, by some necromancy,
This elf's gay craft were minei

For the Frost Kings fingers light!

CROP CONDITIONS,
Report of the Agricultural Depart.
ment for the Entire Country.

The following bulletin reviewing
crop conditions throughout the United
States for June, has just been issued
by the agricultural department.
Practically all sections of the win
ter wheat area received more or less
rain against last week, says the bulle-
east of the Mississippi river, though
some good rains fell west of the river
The heaviest precipitation was IN
southeast Kansas, southern Missouri
and along the Mississippi river in IL
linois and Missouri. Some areas in
western Kansas northeast Kansas and
| northwest Missouri are still in great
need of rain. and a, large portion Of
the wheat area must have more rain
in 10 days or two weeks to mature
the crop. Nebraska received almost
no rain last week.
A review of the rainfall record of
the west for the past three months
shows deficiencies ranging generally
from 25 to 50 per cent, so that for
the remainder of the growing season
there is necessity for frequent shoY-
ers.
Harvest has begun In Texas and
farmers will be cutting in Oklahoma
this week The reports continue very
promising regarding the crop in those
regions. Oklahoma has made a crop
of % million bushels or more and
Texas about IL million bushels.
In Kansas the prospect is difficult
to estimate, owing to widely varying
conditions ranging from almost per-
feet in a large southern Kansas area
to failure In portions of northwest
Kansas. 1t probably is safe to assume
that the state report. which is ex-
pected some time this week. will make
the condition around 10 to so, ndicat-
ing total yield of about 75 million
bushels
The general winter wheat prospect
was impaired materially by the dry
weather in May. The June govern
ment report probably will show an
average condition below SIS. COM
pared with 81 month ago So large
a portion of the area was without
rain for three or four weeks that there
cannot fail to have been considerable
impairment in the prospects. Much
of the crop is heading or has headed.
with short straw and with vitality
more or less impaired. The June con-
dition will indicate a crop somewhat
below that which was raised last
year, and fully 80 million bushels be-
low the production indicated by the
May report.
Not enough rain has fallen to ma
ture the crop on n considerable por-
tion of the area and conditions will be
still further impaired should the next
two or three weeks fail to bring more
moisture.

HAIRCUTs WILL COST 35 CENTS
Price Corresponds With Idaho and the
Sound,

Have you got your spring haircut
yet? If not, you had better hurry, for
the price is going to be raised. With
in the past few days a movement has
been on foot among the BARRIERS of
the city and as a result the price OF
a haircut is TO be advanced from 20
cents to 35. This morning all OF the
shops of the city had assented to the
raise excepting one 10-cent place
which had not been seen at that time.
When asked as to the reason for
the 1O-cent increase in the price OF
a head dressing, Mark Patton said:
"The rise Is one which the bar
bers of Fendleton have been wanting
for some time and should have. In
the state of Idaho the universal price
of a haircut is 35 cents, and the same
is true in the sound country"
According to members of the ton
sorial profession, the increased price
of haircut will not entitlc a custo-
mer to any closer cut than hereto
fore, nor will bald headed. men be
given AN inside price.

AMERICAN FARM MORTGAGES.
Enormous Sums of Money Invested
IN Farm Paper,

The following interesting review of
the mortgage Indebtedness of the
United States is from the June num-
ber of the American Review of Re-
views:
Western farmers have grown rather
particular about their Indebtedness,
says the Review. One of the common
requirements of the modern mortgage
is that the mortgage shall accept any
portion of the principal at the time
of any interest payment
This means that the harvesting of
a good wheat crop, or the fortunate
sale of a bunch of cattle, may wipe out
the debt, and the loan agent must
find another borrower. However. one
insurance company has 100000 900 in
western farm mortgage loans, and the
interest thereon is sufficient to pay
all its death losses. Another company
tered over the Mississippi valley.
The larger sums are in Illinois, with
about S2S,O0O,OOO: Minnesota. with
$4,000. 600: Missouri. $11,OOO.OOO;
Iowa. S1O,TOO,OOO; Ohio. sS.OOO,OOO,
and lesser amounts in Il dozen other
states. It places approximately 1000
farm mortgage loans every year, and
has in its history loaned S250,000,00
in this way. with practically no loss.
a report in the Annals of the Amer
ican Academy oR Science gives the
amount of mortgages held by the life
insurance companies at S490,652, sos,
or 27.7 per cent, of the companies
assets. This however includes loans
on city property as well as those on
farms. The percentage is second only
to shat invested in bonds, indicating
the partiality for this form of invest
ment by the most conservative of in
VeStorS.

Keep the Beef Cattle Dry.

The western cattlemen who are try
ing to raise cattle in the arid region
should never forget the one important
fact that dryness of the atmosphere
must always prove one of their strong
est adjuncts. An old cattle feeder who
has observed such things closely for
many years says that in preparing
beef steers for the market it is much
more important to keep them dry than
it is to keep them warm. Indeed, the
question of temperature alone appears
to have little to do with the gains,
larger gains having been made quite
as often in cold as in warm periods.
In many cases the cold appears to act
as stimulant which results in greater
gains. Whatever advantage barn feed
ing has over outside feeding results
not from warmer but drier quarters.
Every average man knows that the
worst thing for sheep is wet back,
but the rule seems to apply quite as
well to the bovine family and it might
be well to furnish your best steers
with oil-skin slickers in moist spells.
We have seen plenty of steers COM
ing to fat stock shows in canvas over
coats and when peeled off they looked
as pretty as spotted pup.
G. D. Hogg, a Nooksack valley
farmer, has won the banner for sheep
raising in Whatcom county and it
would be hard to find anywhere in the
country animals of the same kind
that will tip the scare at the point
reached by three which he recently
brought to market. The three weigh
just $50 pounds.

mutton will depend on circumstances

mutton will depend on circumstances
which can not now be measured.
Flockmasters on the range have held
back a large percentage of their eve
lambs, which means large ovine pop
ulation next year. 1t is hardly to be
expected that with the probable in
creased population sheep prices can
hold up to a high level more than
year or two longer when we might look
for the usual dump.
