Exact Information on
Washington Irrigation

The U. S. Department of Agri-
culture will soon publish a bulletin
showing the general features OF irri-
cation in Washington. The oh.
ject Of the publication is to get to-
gether in easily available shape that
collection of general information as
will meet the requirements of those
seeking homes in the west. Prof.
o. L. Waller, the Irrigation Engin-
eer connected with the State Col
lege at Pullman, has been selected
by the Federal Department to col
lect this data. Prof. Waller was
here this week and looked over the
valley, visited White Bluffs and
Hanford and secured at first hand
the facts he was after, The bulle-
tin will be sort of booster edition
but will tell the truth and will have
the wide acceptance as authority
that the government publications
have with those who consult them.
This bulletin issued along these
lines will have high value as a
promotive agency and will lead
to many more people coming to this
locality.
It is surprising the number of let
ters received by the department
making inquiry as to the irrigated
lands of Washington and are con-
stantly being asked which the de-
partment is unable to answer" says
Prof. Waller, and the bulletin will
be designed in a general way to ans
wer these letters. The bulletin will
answer the questions as to the labor
and expense of preparing the land
for water and to establish a home;
how much money does the settler
have to have to make a successful
start; is it a gravity or pumping
system; transportation facilities;
market prices; rainfall; tempera
ture; frosts: prices of irrigated land
exclusive of the improvements -
Professor Waller was able to Sc
cure the information he wanted
here in regard to the Valley and
we feel confident that the merits of
our proposition will be fully set
forth.

Open Switch Causes Wreck

A freight reck occurred Monday
in the yards here just north of the
freight depot on the house track.
An open switch at the west end of
the track threw a heavy and rapidly
moving east bound freight in on
the siding and before it could be
stopped the engine crashed into a
box car loaded with a baled hay,
completely demolishing the car and
scattering the bales Of alfalfa in
every direction.
The car was crowded along the
entire length Of the freight house
before the heavy train could be stop
ped. A string of cars standing
on the siding were started down the
siding and ran out on the main
line. The engine had the cow
catcher smashed off, head light
demolished and the smoke stack
slightly skered. Although the car
was demolished only six bales of
hay was broken. George Lane had
just completed loading the car and
had secured the bill of lading so the
loss is up to the company as well as
the reloading of the hay.
The local crew had been switch
ing in the yards for some time and
pulled up on the west end of the
passing track and waited for half
an hour for this particular train to
pass and all this time the switch
was open, a plain case of complete
forgot. y
The msashup occurred about noon
and Trainmaster Shannon dropped
off Number l at 1880 to make an
investigation on the spot before the
local crew was permitted to pull out
and it is safe to presume that he
handed the package to the one
whom it rightly belonged, presum-
ably the tail end breakman on the
local.
When the engine struck the car
of hay it was feared that it would
take fire and the fire company was
promptly called out and laid a line
of hose from the hydrant to the car
but luckily no fire started.

Bad roads nullify adver tising,
repel immigration, increase cost of
living, render the automobile use
less, and will deprive the farmer Of
rural free delivery.
State aid and supervision of road
construction is essential:
In equity because a public
benefit. state should pay twent- five
per cent of the cost, county fifty per
cent and the adjacent property
twenty-five per cent.
For thoroughness-trained en-
gineers and staict supervision of all
work.
For economy---levy taxes and
pay as we 60, or on short time GER
tificaee plan.
For education---regular and cor
responderce courses in road build
ing at Oregon Agricultural College
and University of Oregon
LET us build. good roads all
summer instead of talking about
them all winter"

More comprehensive laws relative
to the listing of property with the
tax assessors CT the counties OF
Washington.
Laws favoring the establishing of
rural and industrial education in
the secondary and rural elementary
schools of the state.
Laws requiring corporations to
open their books for examination
before stock can be offered for sale
to the public, the purpose Of the
examination being to determine
that each dollar of stock for sale is
supported by a dollar of investment.
Laws allowing stockmen and
farmers to be recompensed from
state funds in reasonable amount
when stock belonging to them is
destroyed by the stete officials on
account of contagious diseases.
He endorses the administration
of President Roosevelt; and desires
to state that while believing most
firmly in the benefits to be derived
from a protective tariff, that condi-
tions have so altered that revision
of the present laws on this subject
is advisable. He declares himself
as fir rnly convinced that a tariff on
grain or burlap bags is an unjust
burden on the farming industry OF
the state.

Hay and His Platform

Hon. M. E. Hay, the republican
candidate for the nomination for
lieutenant governor, who created
such a favorable impression with
the voters here on the occasion OF
his recent visit, is now engaged in
a canvass af the western portion OF
the state and is receiving the most
gratifying assurances of support.
Having been extensively engaged in
mercantile pursuits in the state for
the last twenty years he has a large
acquaintance with the people and
a close knowledge of their needs,
especially the farming population
In recent letter to the Courier he
sends the following outline of his
platform:

Aliens & Downs who recently
purchased 5000 acres of land above
Richland which they are planning
to waterby extending the old Gross
cup ditch, are at work raising the
dam at the intake of their canal
which is directly opposite the in
tax of the Kennewick canal.
A bus load of men were sent up
from here to work Wednesday and

needed. Contracts for the dirt
work in extending the canal will
be let in the near future and the

Some Nut Recipes.

AS the nutritive value OF nuts becomes
better known they are being considered
more and more as a necessary article OF
food, instead of a mere luxury, as has
been too much the case in the past.
Being more nutritious, pound for
pound. than any kind of animal food, nut
meats are most heartily to be recon-
mended to all in favor of pure and
wholesome food. Even butter is being
displaced to some extent by the product
of the nut tree, and nut butter and cream
are articles which we can use without
fear of tuberculosis.

Yale Eleven
Defeated by the
Harvard Team

NEW HAVEN Comm, Nov. 21.-
A crimson tide of banners swept in
trump over the Yale field in the dy-
ing light this afternoon, for the men
of Harvard after seven long years,
had beaten Yale to 0. A goal
from the field kicked by Victor III.
Kennard of Brooklyne, Massachu-
setts, fresh from the side lines, stand
ing on Yale's twenty-eight yard line
with the crimson line planted on the
fifteen-yard line, made the winning
score just as the first half was clos
ing. The game was battle of foot
ball giants. Man for man the teams
were equally matched. Each team s
defense was stronger than its offense.
Harvard rushed during the entire
game sixty-five times, netting 241
yards, an average of three and two
thirds yards to the rush. Yale rush
ed in forty-seven times distance OF
ninety-five yards, or nearly yard
less per rush on the average. From
the start of the game to it's end there
was an over-eagerness among the
players to be in the fight and this
brought many penalties, Harvard
losing 12O yards on twelve penalties
and Yale fifty-five yards on six pen
alties.
