Ieedlng grounds OF the range cattle.
1t was in fact, the progressive
farmer-the man who took pride in
the appearance of his farm, who built
comfortable residence for his family
and barns for his stock, the man who
In conjunction with his neighbors,
constructed good roads and built the
school houses and churches, that is
responsible for the development Of the
improved stock industry in the state
They came as natural consequence
and a natural adjunct to his progress
sive methods.
Realizing that to be as successful
in farming as the opportunities of the
country would justify, that class of
men saw that they could not depend
entirely upon the idea of raising one
or two kinds of grain, all of which
were subject to the whims of nature
so far as drouth was concerned and all
subject to more or less danger from
the various plant disease. Cattle Of
fered the counter opportunity to this
class of men. The demands for beef
were as regular and as urgent in re-
publican times as the demand for
bread. The market might be subject
to the same variations and to some ex-
tent to the manipulations Of the same
class OF spectators, but the people
would eat beef Just the same as they
cat bread.
The growth OF improved cattle in
North Dakota has not been the work
of single day. 1t has come as an
evolution rather than revolution. Men
have not gone into the business for the
pleasure of the work but. as a rule
for the money there IL in It. This

II Still Pays

A rush of business has compelled
The News to neglect much important
matter and among this is the fact that
it still pays to trade in Troy. This
town now has two large stocks of the
best farm implements and machinery,
and our dealers want the business and
are making prices that will make it
profitable for the farmer to come this
way to spend his cash. Troy has six
general merchandise establishments
carrying large, clean substantial stocks
of good merchandise. AS The News
has often said, fair trial will convince
the public Of the truth of the state
ment, lit pays to trade in Troy"
Freight rates are as good as other
towns of this country enjoy, while
rents are low and taxes are nowhere
as high as in other places of this Sec
tion. Troy merchants are not paying
seven and one half per cent taxes.
They are operating under extremely
low expense accounts, all of which
enables them to sell goods cheaper
than the merchant who has heavy
expense lading. In purchasing the
public ought to consider these facts
and then permit no cheap talk to de-
ceive them into spending their cash
with outsiders who care nothing for this
community and its people further than
mere dollars are concerned.

sive or unequal taxation, he said: /

neighborhood. The farmers generally
are prosperous and have heard of no
one making kick. I have no com
plant to make personally, and am pre-
pared to stand by the republican, party

have made most excellent record
and there is no sense in making a
change by turning affairs over to a
crowd of soreheads who are clamoring
for Office. We had better let well

in Latah county are now much lower
than in Shoshone and Nez Perce coun-
ties, just oyer the line from Park.

The Season of The Fairs.

The fairs of the northwest circuit
have started with the Snohomish coun-
ty exposition, which opened August
10Th. From now until late in October
there will be fair or two every week
throughout the northwest, affording
everybody an opportunity to go and
see a practical demonstration Of what
is being done in the agricultural line
in this part of the country and to Sc
cure some idea of the vast resources
of the country. 1t should be the aim
of every one to take few days off
from work and visit one or more fairs.
A fair is an educator, and particularly
so to the farmer, the stockman and the
poultry raiser. Agricultural products
of all Kinds are placed on exhibition,
the best livestock and poultry are
there. and the man who wants to learn
how he can make his farm pay better
or secure greater returns from his live
stock or poultry should be on hand to
secure the advantage of the lessons
offered.
The state fairs at North Yakima,
Salem and Boise, and the interstate
expositions at Spokane, Lewiston and
other places are carried out on a large
scale and are worth going many miles
to see. The railroads will make spec
ial rates to all of them and the attrac-
lions and exhibits will be such as to

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-

perfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely

the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to it's normal condit-

make little money expended going to
see them we'll spent. Full premium
lists may be secured by writing the
secretary of each fair, and these lists
will give you some idea as to what you
may see in the line Of products, live
stock, poultry, etc. BY all means get
the list of the particular fair you wish
to attend, and make it a point to be
there with your family. Should you
be so situated that it is impossible to
attend one or another OF the big
ones, be sure to take your family
out for a couple of days outing at the
fair to be held in your own county or
across the line in the next county, IL
that is more convenient. Proper en-
enlargement on your part will do much
to make the county, interstate and
state fairs permanent feature of the
northwest.

Concerning the Hop Industry.

No very complete reports covering
the hop situation throughout the state
are at hand, but so far as we are able
to learn the outlook is very encourag-
ing. Both in the Puget Sound region
and in the Yakima valley the crops
have made good development, al
though the total yield will be short IN
nearly every hop growing district.
Prices early last month were sixteen
cents a pound and still going up. The
latest figures we have at hand 1ndl-
cate seventeen cents is the ruling
price now, with prospects OF shade
higher. Growers, however, should not
hesitate to sell when offered reason
able figure, say seventeen cents. Some
of them will remember the experience
of two years ago, when hops jumped
to 20 and 80 cents, and many growers,
expecting the price to go still higher,
held out for a raise. Then came
slump and before they could dispose
of these hops they had to accept i've
cents a pound in the winter and spring
following.
The Puyallup Valley Tribune be-
lieves the total yield in the state will
be about $4,000 bales, the average
production in the Puyallup valley be-
ing about 1900 lbs. to the acre, against
nearly 1000 lbs. last year. The crop
has been greatly cut down by the con-
tinued hot weather in all the hop
growing sections, including the Yak
ina valley, Oregon and California.
From England and other European
hop districts the reports are not any
too roseate as to the yield. Reports
from Oregon are somewhat conflict
ing so far as price is concerned, some
claiming a figure of Fl cents has been
contracted by New York brewers,
while others say sixteen cents is ABOUT
the average. Oregon's production Will
not exceed 100000 bales, and perhaps
not even that Last year the produc-
ton was 10000 bales and it should
have been 100000 this year owing to
the increased acreage. The dry wealth
er in the hop districts is responsible
for the small yield, but there is one
other factor entering into the sltua-
ton, and that is the poor cultivation
given by many growers to their hop
fields when they saw the crop was
not going to be very good.
The demand for hop pickers is
heavy both in the Puyallup valley and
in the Yakima. 1t is estimated that
1000 pickers will be needed in the
latter section to take care OF the
crop. The season will open between
September 10 and Is, and will last
from one week to ten days, according
to present reports.
