WHEAT GROWING
In Idaho Is Very Profitable, Says A
Adams, Rancher.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 1S.-Abraham
Adams, a rancher at Juliaetta, Ida, is
harvesting $4,000 bushels of Alaska
wheat from 700 acres of land in the
Juliaeta district, southeast of Spo-
kane. The wheat is a bearded variety
and yields 20O-fold, the six-foot high
stalks containing from 100 to $50 kcr-
nels. The discovery was made in
1904 when he secured a stalk of the
grain, from which he harvested seven
pounds of wheat. This in turn yielded
1,545 pounds. The crop was sown in
the fall of 1906 and the following
summer he secured enough grain to
SOW 700 acres, which he is now har-
vesting. W. NJ Jardine, agronomist
in charge of experiments with dry
land cereals, writes from the depart
ment of agriculture at Washington, D..
c., that he will visit the field this
month to make an investigation.

DESIRE TO KEEP COOL
"Going Bare Toes" Is Quite Fad
Among Certain Class of Wo-
men In New York City.

New York, Aug. 1S.-The desire to
keep cool forces people to adopt all
kinds of expedients in New York, but
the latest has been invented by some
young ladies' who are little more I'M
conventional and daring than the ma
jority of their sisters. They have a
name, too, for this latest cooling de-
wise, which is nothing more than go
ing bare footed, but they call it go
ing bare toes" 1t is quite fad among
a certain class of young ladies to
soothe their nerves these sweltering
days by bringing their bare feet in
contact with mother earth or at least
the cool grass. They generally go to
Central Park, where they seek a
bench that is easy to turn around so
that their backs will be toward the
walk. The wisest of the girls know
enough to wear half hose and pumps,
so that it's no trick at all to kick off
the pumps and shuttle off the short

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
Tells of the Blows Dealt the RepubIi

Washington, d. c., Aug. 1S-Mr
Bryan, in his speech of acceptance,

rifle blows, on some very vulnerable
spots. Mr.. Bryan charges Secretary
Taft with attempting to amend the re

pie wrote it. 1t is well known that a
motion was made in the republican
national convention to provide for the
physical valuation of railroads as a
guide by which the amount of stocks
and bonds should be issued by the
roads. 1t is well known that the re
publican national convention voted
down this proposition. great hard
ship on the people of this country re-
suits from the fact that when rail-
road is organized and its stock is sold
the money for that stock goes into the
pockets of the organizers and promot-
ers-as pure graft, and then the crowd
OF grafters that organizes it issues
bonds for building the road. So that
all of the proceeds of the stock is
practically stolen and the bonds go to
the building of the road By this
wholesale stealing and grating which
mas characterized all the roads of the
country, the people are compelled to
pay rates for transportation, high
enough to pay the interest on the
bonds issued and dividends on the
stock. which is practically all water.
If the railroads of this country had
been built on honest principles. and
If they were now being built on hon
est principles, the public could secure
transportation at one-half of what
they are now paying. Mr.. Taft has
seen the evil of this and has recently

DOG ROOM IS THE LATEST
New York Hotel Takes the Lead and

With An Attendant.

New York, Aug. 1S.-The fashion
able Hotel Wolcott has endeared itself

that it has sumptuously fitted up
dog room so that they can go to sleep
with the comforting thought that their
pet Fidos are sleeping under the same
roof with them and are being careful

Heretofore the fashionable hostelries
have not permitted pets of any kind
to be brought into the hotels until
the Wolcott devised this means of pre-
venting the fearful separations of a
mistress and pet. Dog biscuits are to
be provided by the management and
cushioned wicker baskets are sup
piled. The dog room is in charge of
an attendant who is continually on the
job and veterinary surgeon is con-
stantly within call.

ly the republican party has surrender
ed to corporations and trusts. Mr..
Bryan not only stands to correct this
mighty evil, but his party is united
at his back, whereas the republican
party is bitterly opposed to it, as
shown by their vote in the Chicago
convention which voted down the
physical valuation proposition by $50
votes against 112, showing that more
than to 1 of the leaders of the re-
publican party are opposed to it.

FOWLS ICED FOR YEARS
Are Not Desirable, Says the Expert
of the Department of Agriculture.
Reasons Are Given.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 1S.-What
American housewife is able to tell a
cold-storage chicken from fresh one?
How many American households reg
ularly eat fresh" chicken that is only
fresh" in its recent resurrection from
the seclusion of two or three years in
the refrigerator of the storage COM
pany?
1t has long been the boast of the
cold-storagemen that fowls are just
as desirable after two or three years
icing as ON the day they were killed.
This claim is strenuously combatted
in a report made by the department
of agriculture. One object of the re-
port is to furnish a graphic guide to
chicken purchasers, SO that they may
be able to tell the fresh chicken from
the cold-storage article.
When you see a chicken, the
muscles of which are so drawn as to
cause it to hang, for instance, with
the head doubled up; when the skin
is mottled with a greenish tint;
when there is a .shap, although not
putrefying odor; when the comb and
gills are nearly dried up; when the
skin is SO brittle over the breast bone
and at the leg joints as to crack when
rubbed-that is the fowl to beware of
as if it were the plague. 1t is the
three-year-old cold-storage fowl.
The fresh killed chicken, continues
the report, has a clean, pale, soft vel
low skin, translucent enough to show
salmon pink flesh beneath, and fleX-
ible-there are no signs of reddish or
greenish blotches; the comb and gills
are brilliant red and the feather
papillae distinct because of their ele
walton above the skin, although of the
same color When drawn, it is ex-
ceedingly easy to tell the fresh chick
en- from the cold-storage fowl; the
flesh and musles of the former are
salmon pink in color and the interior
organs have an unmistakable bloom;
the two-year old or three-year-old
chicken has none of that tint on the
muscles and skin. The skin itself is
leathery; there are red-rust spots,
and perhaps green blotches; the body
is covered with irregular hollows and
distended Jumps, where watery slime
or gas collects. The feather papillae
have darkened. Exposure to the air
for few hours produces a character
istic odor approaching that of putrid
flesh. $500
me department Of agriculture S exs
pert thus sums up:
"The dictum of the warehousemen
that there is no change in cold-storage
poultry and that it may be kept for
an indefinite period cannot be accept
ed in its entirety Both microscopic
study and taste of the cooked fowl
confirm the fact that degeneration
does take place.
1T seems most desirable that a |
careful study should be made to deter
mine whether such alterations as
have been noted affect the appear
ance and astrological integrity of the |
flesh only, or whether, as has been
asserted by some, the consumption of |
poultry after long periods of cold |
storage, is not responsible for some |
of the obscure intestinal disorders and
the imperfect metabolism from which |
modern humanity, especially the
jewellers in large cities, are SO apt to
suffer"
