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

Results of ar-reaching Importance
N the wheat-raising industry of Wash
inpton have been achieved by the GER
oalist experts of the State College in
the hybridzation of wheats, or the
creation of new varieties which have
proved themselves well 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
ard testing the new wheats. Last
year 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
problem. Last year seed of the hy-
brid wheats were sent out to a num-
ber 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 Is 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-
Ny, 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

department. of agriculture, took per-

Eye Injured With Scissors

Marguerite, the nine-y year-old
daughter of Mr., and Mrs. j. H.
Weeks, was seriously injured in one
of her eyes last Saturday evening by
being struck with the point of a pair
of scissors which were thrown by
baby sister. The point of the scissors
punctured the eye ball, and it is yet
uncertain whether or not the sight of
the eye will be destroyed. The injured
girl was FASTENED to Spokane, where
she has been under the care of special
lists, and the hope is held out that the
sight of the eye can be saved.

HIS DESTINED POSITION.

4 story is being told Of Mr.. John
Burns, the English reformcr, which
shows how strongly he has the re-
formers spirit. He and a friend
we're once travelling in Paris, and
they stood in the Place de Ia Bas-
tile on the centenary of the down
fall Of that famous prison. For a
time they gazed in silence at the
July column, but at last Mr.. Burns
companion ventured the question :
''What would you have been doing
II you had been here a hundred
years ago. "Why," exclaimed Mr..
Burns, without a moments hesita-
hon, Il should have been waiting
for my release inside the prison, my

Railroad Man the carstaker Of Funds
Of Workers.

"For more than 80 years tho most
popular woodsman's bank in Maine
was a bank on two legs" says Maj.
Holman Day, author Of "King
Spruce" "Until he was over 20
years old, Uncle Nate Swan was
conductor ON the Bangor and Pis-
Cataquis railroad, running between
the city and Moosehead lake. With
him rode the woods and driving
crews. When they forgot themselves
and made a racket on his train no
used to cuff them into submission
and no man ever raised his hand
against Uncle Nate. When the men
came out Of the woods with their
pay most Of them realized from Bit
ter experience that the city folks
would get all their money away
from them in a few days. AS soon
as they would get aboard the train
they would begin to strip ten-dollar
bills off their rolls and hand the
money TO Uncle Nate to sink for
them-banking it on call. They
never forgot, nor did he; and in all
the years there was never a dispute
between Conductor Swan and any Of
his depositors. When they came
back on his train they were sure Of
enough money for their fare and

Utah parties are looking around
Williston with a view of establish
ing beet sugar factory. And this
reminds us that at the time the
proposed Bismarck irrigation project
was up Congressman Marshall and
others had in tow some New York
parties who were, figuring on three
quarters of a million dollar plant in
this vicinity. 1t is believed that
Bismarck made mistake when it
failed to take advantage of the gov
ernment's proffer Of an irrigation
plant which would have turned all
the bottom lands south of the city
into a veritable paradise for agri-
culturists in the way of intensified
farming. "

John A. Sleicher, editor of Les

ed is reasonably we'll informed on
political matters in New York state,

expressed himself as follows: SIT
makes no difference to New York
who may go in on the ticket with
Bryan. He cannot carry that state
against Taft. Bryan, if nominated,
will run better in New York than
he did before, because Roosevelt is
not running this year, but there is
a question whether he will receive
the cordial support of Hearst, for
which he is openly fishing. I do not
believe that he will. Taft will grow
in strength as the canvass proceeds
and will beat Bryan in New York by
100, ,O00." ss.. Z.
