BLUE STEM WHEAT
PROVES BEST SELLER

With a difference of ten cents per
bushel in the price of club and blue
stem wheat it is said that many local
growers are contemplating more blue
stem for next season. Club is being
quoted at 73 cents today while blue
stem is SO and some Of the local buy
ers predict that the difference will
be still greater before the next harvest
season is here.
The high price does not affect the
growers in this vicinity very materi-
ally for the reason that little of the
hard wheat is grown here 1t is of
much Importance at Walla Walla,
however, for the reason that much
bluestem is grown in that vicinity.
The great difference in the price OF
the two kinds of wheat is attributed
largely to the scarcity which prevails
and the big local milling demand
throughout the northwest. 1t is a fact
however that in addition to being bet
ter wheat bluestem does not seem to
be so susceptible to smut and is COM
paratively free from this price and
crop destroying fungus.

There we'll have nothing but time to

And We'll raise a little Jack and Jill

Miles from Boston," and it is in this
chorus she expresses her love for the
youth of her choice. He is Joe West

throughout the play has most to do
with these two characters who at once
win the sympathies of the audience.

Captain Heron is the young army

preston connected with the attempt
After his return, when his word
was in question. Dr. Cook came again
to Captain Heron and. as the cap
tain said yesterday, gave his descrip-
lions of what he saw and what he
encountered and furnished data which
thoroughly convinced him that he
spoke the truth, when he said he had
reached the summit
Brooklyn IS preparing a demonstra-
ton on the return of its distinguished
son from his conquest of the north.
AS DR.. Cook has shipped most of
his data containing his observations to
this country, it is probable that he pro-
poses to honor Brooklyn by submitting
TO the world from there the proofs of
his achievement AS it is not Vet
known just when the explorer will re-
turn the arrangements for his recep-

way it is proposed 10 mark his return

The data and instruments with
which the observations were made be
fore and after reaching the North pole
are now on the way TO this city in the
custody of Harry Whitney. the Brook
lyn friend of Dr. Cook to whom they
were turned over when the explorer
returned TO Greenland From this fact
IL is apparent that DR.. Cook proposes
to submit his proofs to a scientific
Jury of Americans familiar with polar
exploration.
In Copenhagen Dr. Cook was requested
to submit his data as a number OF scien-

Never in the annals of the Arctic
exploration has there been any at

From all accounts of Dr. Cook :
