MEANS CHEAPER STEEL.
Foreigners Are Forced to Establish
Plants in England.

London, July 13.-The establishment
of many large steel plants in Great
Britain in order to comply with the
new patents act will be one of the
immediate outcomes of the formation
of the International Steel Trust. Amer
lean and German steel magnates who
have been active in forming this i'm
mense concern have been interviewed
and all agree that it will be only a
few weeks before the scheme will be
carried into execution. The trust,
which has it's headquarters in this
city, has already had applications from
practically every steel manufacturing
center in the world and is now act
lively engaged in deciding upon plans
by which it can arrange an output
serviceable for both export and i'm
port purposes.
The additional capital of the COM
bine will amount to $75O,OOO, 900, and
the Iron and Steel Trades Journal
states authoritatively that several of
the Russian and German syndicates
allied with the combine are negotiat-
ing for the construction of plants in
Great Britain which will gcve employ
ment to many thousands Of men and
will have the effect of cheapening steel
generally.

YAKIMA VALLEY TO
HAVE ELECTRIC ROADS

North Yakima, July 13.-Completio
of the plans of the Yakima Valley
Transportation Company, embracing
electric railroad lines running north,
south, east and west from the city,
with an aggregate mileage of about 100
miles, within two years, is the PROPOSE
ton made to the meeting of the board
OF trustees by General Manager George
S. Rankin in behalf of group of New
York capitalists, whose identity is not
disclosed for the present The finan-
clers propose to Incorporate with a
capital stock of 100000 and to i'm
mediately proceed to construct the
road to the various orchard districts Of
the valley and to permit local stock
holders to retain interest in the new
corporation. The trustees decided that
the proposition is satisfactory, but a
canvass of the stockholders will be
made prior to final acceptance of the
proposals. The arrangement was
made by Mr.. Rankin during his recent
trip to the East.

WASHINGTON FRUIT
CROP BREAKS RECORD

Tacoma, July 11.-Reports received
here by C. A. 'Tonneson, editor of the
Northwest Horticultural, indicate that
Washington will this year have record
smashing crops of apples, peaches,
pears and probably apricots. Owing
to the backwardness of the season in
Western Washington the berry crop
has this year been later than for a
long time, but Mr.. Tonneson says that
Notwithstanding the cold and protract-
ed spring there was notable excep-
ton of killing frosts. The cherry
crop has not shared in the good for
tune of other fruits, the late spring
causing portion of the cherries to
fall off green. Peaches, apples and
pears, however, in the heavy fruit
producing areas of Eastern Washing
ton are showing lavish promise of
making great crop.
Mr.. Tonneson says the steady ex-
pansion of the orchard area of the
state in the last few years is one of
the industrial features the importance
of which is not realized.
''The past few years of fruit grow
ing in Washington, Oregon and Idaho
have conclusively demonstrated" said
he, ito every observing horticulturist
that the Northwest is the apple coun-
try of the United States, and for that
matter North America. Within TWEEN
ty years the orchards and apples of
Washington will be famous all over
the country"

HIGHER TAX ON NEW LINES.
Great Northern Only Half Winner in
Minnesota Suit.

st. Paul, July 13.-Judge Lewis has
filed in the district court his decision
in the case of the state of Minnesota
against the Great Northern Railway
Company, in which the state sought
to compel the company to pay per
cent on gross earnings tax under the
state law of 1903.
The railway company paid the per
cent gross earnings tax, but claimed it
was exempt from the 4 per cent tax
under a law and agreement with the
territorial legislature Of May %, 1887,
by which it was to pay 8 per cent
tax in lieu of all other claims of the
kind by the state.
The old road of the territorial days
was known as the Minnesota and Pa
cific. Since then the road has built
many lines and acquired others.
Judge Lewis finds that the original
lines are exempt under the charter
and agreement from paying any great
er tax than per cent, but that the
other lines must pay 4 per cent.

GRAIN CROP
VERY LIGHT
REPORT OF STATE INSPECTORS
OFFICE ESTIMATES WHEAT
AT 60 PER CENT.
Spring Wheat Has Had Scarcely Any
Rain Since Sown-Oats and Barley
Will Not Exceed so per Cent Of Last
Years crop-Further Decreace An
ticipated.

Seattle, July 11.-Official estimates
of the probable grain crops in this
state have been made by Deputy State
Grain Inspector Alexander Anderson.
This estimate was made as result OF
the visits Of State Grain Inspector Ar
rowsmith and Deputy State Grain In
spector King of Tacoma through the
grain sections of the state.
The state grain inspectors estimate
the probable harvest of wheat In this
state at not to exceed 60 per cent of
last years crop. The oat and barley
crop is estimated at not to exceed SO
per cent of last years yield. These
estimates were based on observations
up to but not including July 1.
Inspector Anderson said that the es-
Inmates will in all probability be cut
down somewhat since the first of the
month, owing to the very dry weather,
and that if rain does not fall within a
week the estimates will have to be
still further reduced. The greatest
damage has been done to the spring

derson says that the outlook has not
been as unfavorable at this date since
he has been in the grain inspectors
office.
not as gloomy as at some other points
owing to the heavy character of the
soil. In the Ephrata district things
look blue, and in the Horse Heaven
territory, in Benton county, the pros
poets are anything but encouraging.
In the Palouse district conditions are
fair.
Harvesting will begin on a large
scale by the middle of the month.
Some harvesting of early varieties has
already been done. The first car of
red wheat arrived at Quincy this week
and the owner wired to Seattle for
prices.
Owing to the uncertainty of the
probable harvest, dealers here are at
a loss what to offer for the new crop.
There is not very much cid wheat in
the state-not more, in fact, than is
ordinarily held at this time of the
year. Dealers state that since it has
become apparent that the crop will
not be as heavy as was expected,
holders have been less disposed to part
with their grain.

PICTURES ron The DINING ROOM

Floral Subjects and Dainty, Refresh
Ing Scenes Most Appropriate.
Dining-r0om pictures are limited as
to subject IL one is to choose accord
Ing to the accepted standards, says the
New York Herald The modern man
and woman Of good taste are fastidious
about the company they dine with, and
they prefer no pictures at all to inap-
propriate ones. Floral subjects are
suited to dining-room walls, and dainty,
refreshing scenes are appropriate. Fig
ures at better into other rooms.
French prints In delicate colorings
are favorite pictures for bedrooms.
They are dainty In subject and tone
and look well in white, gold, pale gray
or any light-tinted frame. For some
time now women have been buying up
French prints at auctions and in the
shops to be later hung in their coun-
try homes. The prints are not ex-
pensive and they are perfect for rooms
belonging to the sex they usually por-
tray. Etchings and photographers are
the next choice for bedroom walls. The
list Of subjects in this line is SO varied
and so long that all tastes and fancies
can be suited.
The average hall is too small to sug.
gest background for pictures, yet
where there is space pictures can be
hung on the slanting walls with a
charming effect. Colored or brown
prints Of uniform size and set In uni
form holding may be arranged In an
ascending line parallel with the stair
way. Often pictures are hung in this
way SO close together that the edges
almost touch. Hunting scenes and
quaint old prints are suited to hall
walls. The walls opposite the stairs
may be decorated with q few larger
pictures Of the same style and framed
in the same way as the smaller ones.
A higgledy -piggledy arrangement is
never In good taste in any room. There
must be a recognized regularity about
the hanging If the result is to be at
all satisfactory.
Photographs are now hung only III
the bedroom or the boudoir. A group
of ones relatives and close friends may
occupy large space on one wall. There
may be dozen or more single pictures
framed In small ovals, circles, squares
and grouped together artistically.
French frames, showing an elaborate
festooning in gold across the top of the
picture, are exquisite for photographs.
These may be hung separately to give
the effect Of medallions against the del.
icate wall covering.

CH1LDREN's LIES.
Give Small People a Large OBJECTIVE
World to Absorb Them.

Give Small People a Large Objective
World to Absorb Them.
A general conclusion from a study of
children's lies contributed by G. Stanley
Hall to Appleton's Magazine, is that
children should have an active life and
see events of q stirring character.
They need" Prof. Hall says, ian objec-
tive world varied, large and active
enough to greatly absorb them, and
then they will not need to improvise
and create. The dull uniform monot-
ony of school life and lessons leaves not
only an aching void, but mass of sur
plus energy and craving in the child,
so that it must often either resign itself
to mental poverty or else expatiate far
and wide and with considerable aban-
don into the world Of sham In order
to create the outside interests it does
not find presented to It,"
Prof Hall thinks that parents and
teachers are often directly responsible
for untruth. To press children for con-
fessions Of their own misdeeds or those
Of their playmates, ne says, is to pre-
sent one Of the strongest temptations
to evasion and deceit. If not to direct
falsehood." Even in the family chill
dren often have a kind of free mason
ry which makes it bad form to tell to
parents the misdeeds Of one another.
1.-THE same principle applies" the
writer continues, against too great In
trusion into the private life Of children.
All who have studied them realize that
there are masses Of crude superstitions
which they very early learn to repress
that little later there are minor mis-
deeds and sometimes immoral habits
that persistently seek refuge In the
darkness OF concealment. Every child
needs to have domain Of life and ex-
perience all its own, sacred from In
trusion and the temptation Of fond
parents to maintain complete confidence
with their growing boys and girls is met
by a natural instinct of resistance on
the part OF the child. which is often
manifested by reservations, prevarica-
lions and perhaps by positive lies.
Hence, a wise policy of letting alone
and of seeming to ignore and Of respect
ing the child's own personality as invio-
liable removes another of the tempta-
lions to lie"
Prof. Hall gives some strange cases
Of what he calls pathological lies. One
little girl invented baby sister for the
benefit Of her teacher and schoolmates,
and after conducting her through sew
eral months Of vicissitude wound up
her career with 4 death and funeral.
Another child appeared at school ii
black and said that her mother had
