GOOD SHOWING.
Yakima Trust Company Is First to
Prepare Statement.

A call for statements has been is
sued to national banks, and although
the Yakima Trust company does not
come under the call. 1t is the first to
prepare its statement, which is Gus
tomany with the institution when
the call is sent out.
The statement shows deposits of
$226,S12.S6, against deposits OF
$4,000 at the time OF the last call,
May 20. This is remarkable for
a bank which is only a little some
thing over year Old. The remand
er OF the statement shows that the
banks condition balance up with the
deposits and that the institution is
In excellent financial shape. Other
bank statements will probably be
ready in a few days.

Black Mold In Oregon.

SALEM, Ore.-From all sections
of the Willamette valley come re-
ports that black mold is spreading
to an alarming degree in the hop
yards. One of the local dealers re-
ceived a letter from WOODBURY. last
evening which stated that the mold
is taking the yards by the wholesale
in that section, and predicting that
not one-half of the crop in that vi
entity will be picked.
The same condition is reported to
exist in many localities in this imme-
date section, and the mold, which is
increasing rapidly on account of the
damp. chilly nights and the hot sun
of the day, threatens to devour the
entire crop before 1t can be picked.
Growers are unanimous in the re-
solve to strive for the banner crop
in the history of the industry in this
state from the standpoint OF quality,
and wherever mold exists the hops
will be left upon the vines.

growers in the matter OF procuring

James Pincus, of the firm, said in
reviewing the hop situation:
out of the $4,000 TO $4,000
bales grow in this state about
10000 to $4,000 will be left to rot
on the poles. In Oregon 10000

deficit in the sum total of hops that

the hops the pickers will make their

will be abandoned this year through
absolute necessity. About the best
proposition that is being offered
growers here who are having trouble
in securing picking money is a guar
antee of at least cents upon the
contract, which will give the grower
only a margin of l cent profit over
picking expenses, but he has already
lost at least cents upon his pros
pective crop in cost of cultivation.
Many growers absolutely decline to
accept this kind of proposition, and
declare they would rather leave
their hops on the vines and take
their chances with a better market
another year.

of the low price and an OF market.
In Oregon and California about the
same per centage will be left in the
fields. This wholesale refusal to
harvest is producing a pronounced
shortage and is improving the de-
mand for hops. Hops that could not

DANIELS TELLS OF CRIME OF
THREE YEARS AGO.
GUILTY MAN DIES IN NORTH
YAKIMA AND TELLS HIS STORY
His Confession Has Been Kept !.
Secret for Two Weeks-Once
Acquitted of the Crime.

Confessing two weeks ago to a
crime committed three years ago,
NJ H. Daniels died in North Yaki-
ma. Up to this time the confession
has been kept profound secret, it
having just leaked out through let
teFs received from this city in Ev-
erett.
The Everett Morning Tribune has
the following to say of Daniels
death, his crime and his confession:
M. H. Daniels, formerly of Ev-
erett, on his death bed a few days
ago in North Yakima confessed a
crime for which he was tried and
acquitted in the superior court here
two years ago.
On August s, 1904, man entered
the livery stable of Tom Oliver and
secured a horse and buggy, stating
that he was going to do some cruis-
ing and would be away three or four
days. The horse and carriage never
came back and Oliver has never seen
them since.
Shortly after the incident Mr.. Oil
yer read in Tacoma paper of
man being arrested there for horse
stealing. The description tailed
with the man who had taken Oil
ver's rig, SO he went to Tacoma and
identified the man as the one he
wanted. The prisoner denied ever
having seen Oliver At the same
time he knew the man from whom
Oliver had purchased his business
and all the other liverymen in the
city. The man was sent to Walla
for term of fifteen months for the
crime for which he was then await
ing trial. Oliver watched for his re-
lease and caused his arrest as soon
as he had obtained his liberty. He
was tried in the superior court here
and acquitted.
About two weeks ago Daniels died
in North Yakima, and on his death
bed is said to have confessed to hav-
ing bteH tHe man WHO LOOK OllVer
rig, but declined to say what had
been done with it because it would
implicate friend who had worked
with him in the business.
Daniels also stated that he started
from the coast to attend the worlds
fair at Chicago with Sc in his peck
ct. He stole horses and traded on
the way and returned with a snug
sum of cash.
Il didn't know Daniels when he
borrowed the rig said Mr.. Oliver
last evening, "but I always had a
habit of sizing strangers up when
they came around the barn, and
was able to describe the pants he
wore, as well as the hat and the tan
gloves. Daniels used to drive the
water sprinkler here"

GIVE FIGURES ON The HOP CROP
ESTIMATE Is MADE By HERMAN
KLABER & co.
Enough Will BE Abandoned In This
State to Reduce Crop to
Possible $4,000 Bales.

Possible $4,000 Bales.
This years hop crop, according to
figures furnished by Herman Klaber
& Co., will be: Germany, 100000
to 100000 cwt.; Austria, $4,000 to
$50, 900; France, 66,00 to $4,000,
Belgium, 10000 to $4,000; Russia
$4,000 to 10000; England 100000
to 100000; America, 100000 to
$50, 900; total of from 1,77,000 to
100000 ewt., as against total OF
1877, 900 last year.
I'm Washington there are fully
$1,000 bales on the poles" says Mr..
Klaber. "a good many growers say
they will not pick, therefore the ac-
tual output of Washington cannot be
determined until after harvest. One
thing is certain, enough growers
have already abandoned their yards
to reduce the yield in Washington to
maximum of 10000 bales. If
farmers cannot get picking money
and more of them decide not to pick,
the Washington crop may be still re-
duced to $4,000 bales. Pickers are
plentiful in Washington, and the
quality of the crop promises to be
better than for a good many years
past.
I'm Oregon the quality never was
better. Very little damage has been
done by vermin, and If climatic con-
ditions remain favorable the growers
should be able to harvest their crops
in good shape and produce hop
that will find ready sale, especially
as there are plenty of pickers and
the harvesting can be expedited. A
number of contracts have been made
in Oregon the past few days at and
8 cents a pound, but dealers do not
want to contract just now, as 1t is
too close to harvest and they prefer
to buy when the crop is in the bale
and they can make their selections.
California Yield.
THE yield in California will be
10000 to $4,000 bales If all the crop
is picked. We have seen a number
OF samples of the new crop, and they
are without doubt the best quality
that has been raised in California
for a good many years. Several con-
tracts have been written In Sonoma
the past week at about Sh cents n
pound.

New York will produce $4,000
to $1,000 bales, against $4,000 bales
last year. The quality of the New
York hops is also exceptionally good
IF growers were not in a position
TO require assistance for picking, ana
would not force their hops upon the
market, it looks to us as though ev-
erything would come out all right
But they are falling over each other
in their endeavor to secure picking
advances, which is the cause all over
the coast of the present panic.
Last year there was a very short
crop in Europe, and the only reason
that hops declined last year was be-
cause of the abnormally large crop in
1905. This year We are following a
short crop, and it looks TO us as
though fairly remunerative prices
should prevail later.
Worth the Chance.
Eve would not care to issue any
advice to growers whether to pick
or not. We shall pick our own hops
and so will all the other dealers who
have hop yards. 1t looks as though
it is worth the chance, and a good
many things can happen yet.

Frank McCreary. the Minneapolis
coal man, was in the city last even

in interest of his company. He
says that coal dealers are laying in
really more coal than they can afford
to, but they are not being helped out

The coal dealers cannot possibly
carry all the supply they will need.
but they are doing more than they
ordinarily attempt.
IF coal shortage comes this

room for kick. They have been
warned by the dealers and by the
railroads. It is now up to the con-
sumer.

WHEAT CROP OF
INLAND EMPIRE
Record Breaking Crop i'm Pacific
Observation-Disclosures of
Handling 1t

Portland, Ore, Aug. 19. What
will be the wheat crop of the Inland
Empire" asked the Hon. James Will
son, secretary of agriculture, of a
Portland banker. He received as a
reply, "Sixty-two million bushels,
and that means an increase of elev-
en- million bushels over last year, and
last was the record"
There are peculiar things about
the growing and handling of wheat
in the Inland Empire which includes
part of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, or at least they strike the
Kansas and Dakota wheat growers
as just a little queer, and the new
conner from those great districts
doesn't like to handle the wheat in
sacks. 1t strikes him as both expen-
sive and unnecessary, but it seems
that the habit is fixed on the wheat
growers of the Pacific coast, and the
sack came as result of necessity.
For years the greater portion of the
wheat was exported to countries
where it was necessary to cross the
equator twice, and if it had gone in
bulk it would have spoiled, but they
sack the wheat in the field and it is
never handled in bulk even to come
to the nearest mill or station.
There is no sight more fascinating
in the farming districts of the Paci-
fic northwest than harvest scene,
where they use combined" harvest
ers, the greatest marvel the inven-
tive genius has ever worked out in
agricultural implements. 1t is com
monty called combined" and it
certainly gets results, both in lessen
ing the necessity for labor and in
saving the wheat. Four men and
from twenty-four to twenty-eight
horses handle one of these combined
harvesters. One of the men handles
the horses, the reins being on the
leaders only; the second feeds the
bundles Of wheat to the machine;
the third sews the sacks and shoves
them from the platform onto the
ground. while the fourth keeps all
the bolts and screws tight and looks
after the mechanism of the COM
bined."
This years wheat crop will leave
between $42, 100000 and $44, 600, 900
in the hands of the farmers, and at
least $40, 900 of it will find its
way to Portland.

lands, formerly in the Lower Brule
Indian reservation, about ten miles
southeast of here.
The lands will be offered under a
drawing system similar to that used
in opening the Huntly lands in Mon
tana last June.
The South Dakota lands are valu-
able for agricultural purposes, and
much of the land is said to be suit
able for cultivation without irriga-
ton.
Applicants for the lands are re-
quired to execute affidavits before
some officer within the Pierre land
district and present the same to the
register and receiver of the Pierre
land office between 8 o'clock Monday
October 7th and a o'clock Saturday,

October 14th, and the successful ap-
plicants will be allowed to make en-
try the following Monday.
The new lands are to be opened
under the homestead law in tracts
not exceeding 100 acres. and are to
be paid for at their appraised value,
ranging from 81. .25 to $3.50 per acre
the first payment of 81 being made al
the date of entry, and the others ir
annual payments.

In this county of such magnificent

some fields were cut ten days ago,
there may be a few green enough to

Several threshing machines have
begun work this week, threshing
out of the shock. This saves stack

great deal of the crop will be hauled
into market although the tendency
is to store more grain in the farm
granaries, to be hauled to market
when work is not SO pressing.
First Wheat of 1907
The first wheat the new crop came
in yesterday to Chas Thomson's ele-
vator. ltwas brought in by Lars
Peterson from the Greeves farm adj
joining town on the west. The
wheat is fine, weighing out 63
pounds to the bushel, and brought
sc cents. Mr. Peterson places the
yeild at close to 25 bushels per acre.
If his estimate of the yeild is correct
this crop brings him over $2l per
acre.
