Farmers Rushing to Colorado.

Denver.-The whole country seems
to have suddenly discovered the faca
that Colorado is an agricultural stxts

Y.W.C.A. WORKERS
COMING TO PULLMAN
Annual Conference for Ore.
gon, Eastern Washinton
and Northern Idaho

From fifty to one hundred young
ladies', delegates from the various
Young Women's Christian Associa-
tons of Northern Idaho, Eastern
Washington and Oregon, will assemble
in Pullman next week, Friday, Satur-
day and Sunday, for the annual con-
ference, and program of great inter
est to these workers for a Christian
cause has been arranged.
Last year this conference was held
at Walla Walla, but this year it was
given to Pullman. where it will be
held under the auspices of the associa
tion at the college, the sessions to be
held in the college auditorium. Many
numbers on the program are of es-
pecial interest, and the public is invit-
ed to attend such of the meetings as
it may desire. The conference sermon
by Bishop Paddock, and the addresses
by the Misses Gage and Condo, the
latter a returned missionary, will APP
peal particularly to the general public.
The program in detail for the three
days follows:
Friday evening -
7:30-Greeting, by Pres. BRYAN.
8-Address; The Significance of the
Association Movement; Miss Condo.
9-IInited delegation meeting; Miss

sonal charge of the detail work of
propagation and testing.
The early crosses were largely hard
winter wheats and the Little Club
which was then considered the leading
variety in Eastern Washington. Some
OF the resulting crosses have become
fixed types; and these the investigat-
ors have been testing in acreage guam
titles for the past four years.
From large number of crosses.
four have been selected as of excep-
tional merit. Three of these, Num-
bers los, 1913 and 1913, are of the Jones
Fife Little Club cross. For the years
'O5, 'O6 and '07 they average fifty
bushels per acre. These are all Wig
orous growing, stiff strawed, non
shattering and early maturing wheats,
and, moreover, are much ahead of the
Little Club in hardness.
Nos. 1903 and 1913 are hardy wheats
with a fairly large berry, while No.
l28 is white wheat that grades prac-
tically with Little Club. Its charact-
eistics are similar to 108, 1913 and l28,
the grain being white, and very SINH
lar. These seem adapted to all of the
eastern part of the wheat belt.
However, they are not we'll adapted
to the dry sections of the state. To
meet the needs of the dryer sections.
Turkey Red wheat. which is a very
hardy, drouth resisting wheat. of very
high milling quality, was crossed on
the Little Club. This has resulted in
three excellent fixed hybrids, Numbers
$50, 60, and 60. These have been
tested among the farmers of the dryer
sections with very hattering results.
The hybrids partake largely of the
good milling qualities of Turkey Red,
and also Of the hardness and drouth
resisting characteristics. They have
"Club" head, stronger straw, and
the beardless character of Little Club.
In the moister part of the wheat
belt, these Turkey-Little Club crosses
are too weak strawed, and will not
yield with Numbers 108, 1913, 1913 and
l43. Their superior yield is shown
more strikingly in the dryer belt. The
average yield for 15U and Sc was forty.
six bushels. These yields are quite
markedly in excess of the yields of the
standard varieties grown in the same
fields on the college farm the same
years.

than those who were inside. John
Klemgard states that Mr.. Kellogg So
licited him and other friends to accom-
pany him (Kellogg) to the house, and
assist him in regaining possession of
the premises, the failure of the au-
thorities to serve the warrants which
had been issued for the arrest of GER
tain members of the Savage family,
occasioning this action to regain pos
session by force. Mr.. Klemgard and
his followers consented to go.
They approached the house, Mr..
Klemgard says, and Mr.. Kellogg
knocked on the door, at the same time
informing the persons within that he
and his friends had come to take pos
session of the place, and were going to
do it. The new tenants, however, re-
fused to open the door, so it as broken
in. Those attacking fired three or
four shots about this time. One was
directed north in the direction of the
frog pond, and the others were fired in
the air. AS the door crashed in, Mr.
Kellogg received the bullet in the lung
and active hostilities ceased immedi-
atey.
The attacking party withdrew, and
Mr.. Klemgard says that he advised
that these methods be pursued no long
err, as it was an affair out of which no
good could come for anybody, and per-
hsps might lead to very serious conse-
quences. This counsel prevailed, it
seems. A team was secured, which
brought the wounded man to town
where he was Immediately given the
best of medical attention at the Pull
man hospital. 1t is thought that he
will be able to walk home within a
few days.

GREAT VALUE OF
HYBRID WHEATS
State Profits by Successful
liberalization of Wheats
at the College

Results of far-reaching Importance
10 the wheat-raising industry of Wash
iroton have been achieved by the GER
ealist experts of the State College in
the naturalization of wheats, or the
creation of new varieties which have
proyed themselves we'll adapted to the
conditions for wheat-growing in the
Northwest.
This is one of the greatest expert
ments that has ever been successfully
conducted by the State College, or for
that matter, by any college or expert
ment station in the West. 1t has now
been four years since Professor C. w.
Lawrence took personal charge of the
detail work in propagating, perfecting
and testing the new wheats. Last
wear it was fairly certain that certain
Of the hybrids would be success, but
Mr.. Lawrence chose to be rather eau
tious in his published statements. de-
string to wait another year and be alb
solutelv certain before making positive
statements concerning so far-reaching
a problem. Last year seed of the hy-
brid wheats were sent out to a num-
Der of farmers in different parts of the
state. Within the last few days all
\ the reports have been received at the
station, and the data included in the
reports show absolutely that the hy-
birds will exceed in production by
from 10 to rs per cent the yields of all
other standard varieties of wheat
which have heretofore been in use in
Washington.
What the success of the hybrid
wheats means to the state can be fig
ured up in dollars and cents quite cas-
lily. This year the wheat production
Of Washington will be not much below
$4,000, 600 bushels. When this yield
is increased 10 per cent by the use of
the new hybrids, at 60c per bushel,
the yearly wheat output of the state
will sell for 81 800, 600 more than it is
worth at the present time.
The work of creating the hybrid
varieties began nearly ten years ago,
and since then has been continuing
with varying degrees of success, the
most definite results having been OBJ
tanned since four years ago when Mr..
Lawrence and Professor George Sever
ance, now acting head of the college
department. of agriculture, took per-

Three New Brick Blocks Now in the
Process of Construction.

Work is now progressing upon three
brick blocks in Pullman, the latest be-
ing a structure 25x50 feet in size, To-
Gated on the lot just east of the Palace
meat market. which is being con-
structed by Sam Cameron for occu-
pancy by l.. B. Miller's jewelry store.
Mr.. Cameron did not wait long once
he concluded to build, and masons are
now putting IN the foundation and will
have the walls up in few DAYS. The
front will be of plate glass, with en-
trance in the center, and the building
will make an ideal home for Mr.
Miller's Jewelry store
Work on the Ruply block is going
ahead satisfactorily, the foundation
being complete, and brick and iron be-
ing on the ground, so that rapid pro-
gress will be made with the building.
A concrete foundation is being put
in for the Bloomfield block, a dozen
masons being employed on this so that
the building can be enclosed before
bad weather sets in. This building
will be 4Cx125 feet, and two stories
high.
Work in the residence districts con-
tinues without abatement, the laying
of foundation for a new house being
of almost daily occurrence.
