The agricultural part of the Sugar
company was successfully looked after
by Mark Austin. who is considered
by competent judges to be the best
agriculturlst in the west. 1t secured
more beets for the company this year
than last, and will secure still more
for next year. The method of pitting
was carried out and kept the beets in
good shape all through the season.
They were just as crisp when they
came out of the ground as when they
went in.
Mr.. Austin says that the farmers
are fast realizing the necessity and
value of manuring and properly fer
tilizing the soil, and that the prospects
for the beet raising in the future are
much greater than at any previous
time. There has been n marked ad-
vance in beet raising in southeastern
Idaho. There is plenty OF snow in
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-02-11

The first story of the awful stock
losses in Northern Montana to reach
pendleton came last evening by way of
Portland. While It has been known
that the loss would be extremely
heavy, 70 one thought 1t would be so
terrible as now estimated.
dispatch from Butte says:
Kon Kohrs, Of Deer Lodge. one of
the most prominent stockmen of the
state, is in Butte and states that he
is in receipt of advices from the north
ern ranges that his stock losses will
reach about so rer cent of his herds,
so fierce is the storm that is sweeping
the northern districts of Montana. Mr..
Kohrs says the conditions in Valley
c'urty and the other big cattle and
sheep sections is simply appalling, the
stock dying by the hundreds.
The long plains of northern Mon
tana afford the stock little shelter
from the singing sweep of the snow

pl1inly indicate how fearfully the
herds are being ravaged by the terri

Bad, Says Billings.
A dispatch from Billings says: The
most severe storm in 90 years prevails

ers the ground to the depth of nearly
foot. Conditions are said to be worse
than since 1886. when thousands of
sheep died in the storm. Thousands
of sheep are being driven to ranches
near this city to be fed. Train service
is badly demoralized.

the mountains and the prospects FOR
water are the same as they usually
are, for the land along the Snake river
and its tributaries.
Idaho is certainly the land of op-
portunities, and Sugar City is the
best place for opportunities in Idaho.
The sugar factory here has done more
for the development of the county
than any other thing-it has caused
the land to raise in value over 10 pnr
cent. 1t scatters more money in one
year than any other two things in the
county. The company pays the Sec
ond largest tax in the county. The
sugar industry is the greatest Thing

THOUGHT HE WAS WANTED.
Swede Returned According to lnstrue
 tions on Envelope.

Christ Nelson, having been in this country only a few weeks, was slow iI learning American customs, and espeI cially the inscriptions on envelopes One of his first acts after landing in Oregon was to take cut naturalization papers, On the corner of the envelope in which were contained the docu ments that made him an AmericaH citizen, were the words: Return in five days"
 Wal, I be har," be said yesterday as he shuf1ed up to the counter in the county clerks office and spoke to Dep uty Prasp.
 What do you want?' asked that of flcial, carefully noting the embarrassed flush on the Swede's face.
 Wal, it say on this har envelope return in five days and time be uI today so l ban come round"
 When assured that nobody wanted him, he turned with surprise and walked sadly away, not certain whether he was naturalized or not Portland Oregonian.

MODERN REVOLUTION
INSURGENTS BUYING IMPROVED MACHINE GUNS TO OPERATE
 IN GUATEMALA.

Mexico City, May.-Machine guns will play big part in the coming rev olution against Guatemala. The reVo- lutionists, who are now organizing movement against the Cabrera gov ernment are making definite plans to give President Cabrera's army some of its own medicine. Last summer the revolutionists who succeeded in invading Guatemalan territory met with a big and most disconcerting surprise Instead of facing a ragged and undisciplined body of troops arm ed with ordinary rifles, the revolu- tionists found themselves facing ma chine guns that moved an advancing force down like modern harvester does a wheat field. Cabrera had i'm ported the best of rapid-firing guns. These could be transported on the backs of mules to the most advan- tageous places in the hills and noun tains. With these guns he imported TlSHCu dl lillcly Oi1>Clo anu AANA trained in the use of this style of weapon.
 Then, with these guns at the head of his army, Cabrera not only fairly slaughtered the revoluticnists and Salvadorean troops, but installed in them fear that, precluded the pos sibility of wholesale assertions from his army to the ranks of the revolu- tionists, which was confidently expect ed by the latter.
 As result of this lesson, the revo- lutionists who will conduct the fight in the expected outbreak this sum- mer will be provided with machine guns of the latest pattern. Further more, it is known that arrangements are being made to secure experts to take charge of the light machine bat terieS

USE OLDTIME OVENS.

In Canada the French settlers still continue to use large brick ovens out of doors such as were built in France 250 years ago. The per- lection of the stove and range in the last 50 years has driven many of these ovens out of commission, but many of the inhabitants think that no good baking can be done in any other oven. Its use is simple. A fire is made in the oven of good hard wood and when the oven is ex. ceedingly hot the ashes are raked out and the large loaves ready tc bake are placed on the bottom of the oven without pans. This method o1 baking makes very thick croute or crust. As all of the natural ele- ments of the grain are left in the flour the bread is dark in color.

Wheat $1.OO.

Chicago, May.-In the most sen sational opening ill the history of the Chicago Board of Trade, wheat Mon- day snot past the dollar mark. Heavy realizing sales pushed the market backward somewhat, but at the close the market was strong and, accord ing to the majority Of spectators on the board, the demand on which the late advance has been made is still unSatisfied. The net advance for wheat was 4 cents for the July and September options and 4 IS cenJs for the December. It was certain ty that 6 strong bulge would take pace ln the wheat market at the opening. Country orders had been pouring in seemingly in an endless stream and, Ill obedience to them brokers. stood ready to buy millions of bushels at the market prlce. ShOctS were ill a highly nervous condition and were eager to cover. The re- suit was that as soon as the gong sounded there was terrific roar of voices, all anxious to buy and nobody offering to sell. The confusion was so great that for a few minutes but little actual business was transacted, the brokers fighting and struggling in the effort to get hold of wheat from anybody or at any price. The rush of buying orders seemed to come from almost every city in the United States which was situated along 2 telegraph wire. The came from Win nipeg and from Louisiana and from points on the Pacific and Atlantic sea boards. It is predicted that wheat will go to S1.50 per bushel

STORY POINTED A MORAL
Archibald CIaverine Gunter's Clever illustration of Case of ln-
 direct Bribery.

Some editors were discussing the personality of the late Archibald Clavering Gunter, the author of "Mr. Barnes of New York"
 Counter" said a dramatic editor, sshad a keen sense of honor. Brib- cry of any sort was very distasteful to him. 1 remember the pointed way in which he told bribery story in the presence of theatrical man. ager whose eulogistic reviews in the press were thought to be due in one or two cases to palm oil.' A week. ly paper had attacked this manager and then suddenly turned round and praised him. The manager said it was a remarkable thing. He could not understand it. And then Gunter told his story. He said there was an old railway watchman who was overfond of whisky. One cold and stormy night the watchman found tramp in warm box car and sternly ordered him to be off. The tramp begged and pleaded. In vain. The watchman knew his duty and would perform it. So the tramp rose from his comfortable corner and slowly and sadly pinned up the collar of his thin coat as some pro- lection against the storm.
 "'All right, boss,' he said; I'll go if I must. You've got to do your duty Then he pulled pint flask from his hip pocket. 'To show there's no i'll feelin',' he added, take a swig O this.' The. watchman's hard eyes softened and lit up and as he stretched out an eager hand he said smilingly: Sit down, man. Ye didn't think l was in earnest, did yep"
