corn. For with this grain more quick
ly and easily than with any other does
man get his food from the soil.
Corn was here when the white man
came. Corn was the mainstay Of the
pioneer. Without it the conquest OF
the continent would have taken a cen
fury longer.
Corn is really what makes this ''the
New World" different from the
worlds that civiliz alton knew before.
Discussion and dispute about heral.
die signs and emblems standing for
the United States of America may
we'll cease here. In the eternal fitness
of things there is one sign and emblem
that stands alone. This is a full
grown corn plant, laden with ears
symbol of the peace and plenty that
are this happy lands above all

Fierce Timber Fires.

M1ssOULA, August 17.-Late this
afternoon q telegram was received by
the local forestry officials announcing
that three large fires were raging in
the Kaniksu forest, located in the
northeastern portion of Idaho. The
fires are supposed to have resulted
from engine sparks.
A large fire fighting force has been
hurried to the Kaniksu forest under
the direction of Supervisor W. N.
Miller. Late advices from the forces
now at work state that they have thus
far been unable to check the progress
of the flames and it is feared that the
three fires will oon merge into one.
To assist the fire fighters q number OF
men are being detailed from the Wash.
ington forestry departments to coop
crate with the Idaho men. The local
office is in direct communication with
Supervisor Miller and it is probable
that emergency forces will be requisi.
toned from the Bitter Root and Occur
d'Alene forests to assist the Idaho
fOresters.

Will Exhibit Roosevelt Trophies.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The larg-
est and most ornate exposition build.
ing in the United States has just been
completed in time to receive the
unique trophies from the hunt, gath.
cred by Ex.President Roosevelt in
Africa, and now about to be unpacked
in this city. This building of granite
with floor space of approximately
nine and q half acres, and costing
%, SOC, 900, has been erected by con-
gress for the National museum, and ia
today being put in order.
1t is likely that rooms on the fret
floor will be the future home of the
Roosevelt specimens. Az soon a. the
81 pelts gathered by Mr.. Roosevelt
are taken from tee casks they will be
tanned by the best process for their
preservation ''for all time"

Surprise in Water Right Case.

BOHEMIAN, Aug. 16.-Somewhat OF q
surprise was sprung this morning in
Gallstin county's big water right
suit when Captain Edmonson of Hell
q and E. Tappan Tannatt of Spo.
kane, the consulting engineer, made
their report of water measurements in
the areas involved in the litig alton.
1t was shown that the farmers in that
region have been using about one
third less water than they thought
they were. Some of the attorneys in
the case will likely dispute the find
ings of the engineers. Engineers of
the different parties in interest pre-
viously reported much larger findings.
Judge CheadIe stated, however, that
he believed the findings of the con-
sulting engineers were correct as he
was present when most of the meas.
urements we're made and thought all
possible precautions were taken.
Judge Cheadle will probably begin to
dictate his findings in the case to.
morrow.

Grow Corn In North Dakota,

GRAND FORKS, Aug. 22.-The ques.
ton of whether cor can be success.
fully grown in North Dakota is re-
ceiving its answer in the affirmative
this year. With a large acreage Of
corn planted, exceeding that of any
previous conditions, and ideal corn
growing weather, the crop has reached
q state where it ia now absolutely
certain, barring extremely early
frosts, that a yield comparing favor
ably to that of celebrated corn states
will be realized.
Practically every farmer in the more
developed sections of the state, and
that Includes all the eastern portion
of the state, has from ten to twenty
acres of corn this year, and many an
even larger amount than that. One
of the notable corn growers of the
state is j. D. Bacon, proprietor OF
the Lilac Hedge farm of Grand Forks,
q former member of the legislature.
He planted 100 acres of corn this year
and it has now reached 9 stage where
it surpasses anything of the kind ever
attempted heretofore in the state.

SPOKANE, Aug. 22.-FIres raging
