The BOARD SHOULD
STAND PAT.

Attorney General Clark is again in
coura for the purpose of forcing the
owners of non-producing mines in Co
caise county TO pay tax on valua-
ti6n fixed by the territorial board Of
Equalization instead of paying on a
REALIZATION fixed by the county equaliz-
kng board. The local beard fixed as a
valuation for non-producing mining
claims in this county the sum Of 1858.
This class of property was raised by
the territorial board to s7Oo per claim
This action by the board was protest
ed against by the members of the
county board, J. G. Mecabe and Chair
man Riggs going to Phoenix for that
purpose. It was shown that large
number of the mining claims in this
county are absolutely without any
fixed vaiae and that any valne fixed
as basis of taxation must be neces.

Washington, Dec. l7.-Aside from
the appointment of committees, which
took place at the beginning of today's
session Of the senate, the need of inn

country.
The senate adopted the resolution of
Dick, extending the time allowed the
militia of the several states, territories

June 21, 1903, which was necessary in
order that the militia of several states
might take advantage of appropriations
that have been made.

Agricultural College Makes interest
ing Experim nta.

'NE,' ~S'SSN 'V'"NSc ''tS'
ing Experm nts.
By A. L. Knisely, oregon Agricultural College
In taking walk over the farm at the
Oregon Agricultural college, looking for
interesting and instructive object les
sons, there may be seen north of the
old barn and just to the south of the
path leading to the orchard, an enclos-
ure containing some very interesting
experiments. This enclosure contains
an oblong box probably ten feet long,
three feet wide and three feet deep. In
this box are installed four galvanized
iron tanks or pots, each holding APPROX
imately 800 pounds OF soil. Each pot
is provided with drainage spout 30
that all water leaching through the soil
in these pots may be collected and
measured and analysed.
Many farmers practice bare summer
fallow and the question often arisfs as
to the go d or bad effects arising from
this practice.
Should the practice of bare summer
falIow be discouraged? 1t was for the
purpose of answering this question that
these experiments in the galvanized
iron pots were started.
In 1900 all pots were filled with the
same soil thoroughly mixed 30 that
each pot W, iden .ical with the others.
Since that time part of the pots have
been bare summer fallowed, whilst 9TH
ers have been growing crops, usually of
grain. The teachings from each pot
during the rainy season have been care
fully saved and analyzed with the result
that invariably the teaching from the
bare summer fallow pots carried from
two to over six times as much nitrogen
as did the teachings from the pots that
had not been bare summer falowed.
The first few weeks of teachings in the
fall carry most Of the soluble nitrate
nitrogen. The amount of nitrogen
leached out of the soil in one, month in
the fall was equivalent to approximate
ly pounds per acre in soil not summer
fallowed and over 40 pounds per acre
where the soil had been thoroughly
Summer fallowed.
From the plant food point of view
bare summer fallow cannot be recon-
mended.
Summer fallow aerates the soil, con-
serves moisture and oxidizes the organ
ic matter of the soil, converting much
of the organic nitrogen first into ammo
mia compounds and then into nitrate
nitrogen; that is into form which eas-
lily teaches from the soil and is lost to
the farmer, whilst organic nitrogen does
not readily leach out of the soil. At
times bare summer fallow may be de
si,able but usually it is to be con.
demned.

ISLANDERS CHANGE FRONT.
Filipinos WANT Power to Make Com
merciai Treaties.

Manila, Dec. 20.-The assembly has
received favorable report from the
committee to which was referred res
olution asking congress to give the in
eular government power to make COM
mercial treaties with other countries
in the event of failure Of tariff reform
This subject has been much discussed
by the native pol ticians and press and
as a result the Filipino attitude on free
trade with the United States has under
gone complete change.
Heretofore the politicians and the
press regarded tariff agitation as an
effort to bind the Philippines closely to
the mainland and it was opposed by
the independent factions. Now all
parties unite in demanding the aboli-
tion Of the Dingley rates.
The commercial treaty project was
presented to the assembly by Nation
alist member, who decla red that, al
though his first effort would be toward
free trade, he would in the case of fail
ure urge the commercial treaty plan as
an alternative.

Gan Francisco, Dec. 19.-Colonel J.

very busy this last week accumulating
maps OF all the different sections OF
California, where it might be advisable
to hold maneuvers early during the
coming year.
There has been come talk Of holding
the maneuvers at American lake,
Washington, but that is now out of the
question, as since the divisions were
abolished only the troops Of the Depart
ment of the Columbia could utilize
American lake-the troops of this de-
partment must have their manuevers
in this state.
The Heney ranch, at Atascade, and
the Baron Won Schroeder properties, at
Santa Marguerite, it is reported, are
both available should the government
decide to select the Southern portion Of
the state as field OF rendezvous.

Secretary Corteiyou Cited to Court
on Canal Issue.

Washington, Dec. 20. - Justice
Gould, OF the District Supreme court,
yesterday cited George B. Cortelyou,

and accrued interest per 800, and on
notice Of the acceptance OF his subscrip-
tion stands ready to deposit the amount
with the assistant treasurer at New

only $1,000, 900 were allotted to per-
sons who were individual bidders, and
who, in accordance with the statutes
and said circular, were given equal
to subscribe therefor; the
$24 900, 900 were allotted to
divers national banks and only $780,
900 of which were allotted to banks
which had offered higher price than
that bid by him.

-Four Try to Enter United States on

Captured Near Spokane by immigra-

Spokane, Dec. 19.-Four Chinese,
three of them disguised as Japanese
and carrying Japanese passports, after
sneaking across the American boundary
line, were captured at Custer yesterday
afternoon by l.. j. Fuller of the Immi-
grafton department. The Orientals car
ried two shotguns and rifle, and we're

tured. They we're taken to Seattle last
night and placed in the detention hos
pital.
Inspector Fuller was out Of town
working on another clue when the four
Cinnamon walked in from the north.
Friends sent messages by telephone
for him to different farmhouses and he
was soon located. As soon as he heard
of the suspicious characters he hurried
back to town, arriving 40 minutes be-
fore the Seattle train. He arrested the
men Immediately, telegraphed to Seat
tie to have guards at the station and
hurried his men aboard the train as
prisoners.
When arrested the Cinnamon pro-
tested that they were Japanese and
held to their story until they saw that
arrest was unavoidable. Two Of them
spoke English, but when they saw that
their disguise was Intellectual they re-
fused to make any statement. Inter-
prefers will cross question them today

During the Russo Japanese wal nu-
merous instances OF Japanese officers
disgusting themselves as Chinese were
reported, but this is the first time the
immigration officers have run across as
smooth work in the line Of disguise.

BROOME GRASS.
Director of Experiment Station Says
1t Has Been Overdone.

1t Has Been Overdone.
By H. T. French, Director Experiment stati on
Moscow, Idaho.
In response to numerous inquiries
regarding out experiences with Bromus
inermis, take occasion to present the
following brief account of the results
thus far attained on the experiment sta
tion farm.
Broome grass has been growing on
the farm in small plats, and in pasture
fields, for six or seven years. Where
it has been allowed to stand unmolested
it has produced dense sod, and com.
paratively little growth after the second
or third year.
Where it has been re.seeded, or the
ground disturbed by narrowing, it has
made much better growth. Around
the borders of fields where the land il
cultivated the growth is rank and coarset
My opinion Of broome grass is, tina.
1t has been somewhat overestimated FOR
general use; but that it has place as
grass to be used in out-of-the-way
places, where it can not, on account of
the nature of the soil, form dense sod.
Such place would be found on stony
land, or rocky hill sides.
1t will produce one or two good crops
on farm lands, then it should be either
plowed up and a crop of grain taken
off, or else given good discing to pre-
vent its forming such a dense sod
This grass, like most of the others, will
do best on rich moist land; but at the
same time will withstand severe
drought, if the sod does not become too
dense.
All kinds of stock seem to relish eth
or the grass or hay made from it if it is
,ut early.
