Minneapolis did grind considerable
wheat in bond and under drawback
regulation, but that was in time of
an extraordinary general disarrange-
ment of forld's prices.
The drawback provision now apply
ing to millers and which will be partic-
ularly important to the mills at Mime
apolis, Duluth, Buffalo, New York, and
other centers close to the Canadian
border, will permit the miller to enter
the forld's markets, buy wheat, grind
It in bond and export the flour. The
by-produc may then be taken from the
bonded mill and sold for domestic con-
sumption upon the payment by the
sessed by the government If the by
products had been imported. The mill
ers were contending for this while the
tariff bill was before congress.
AS to the ability of the millers to i'm
port wheat under this more liberal pro-
vision, the Northwestern Miller, which
has been investigating the matter,
says:
Calculations have shown that under
20 per cent ad valorem duty applying
to by-products from foreign wheat,
when the latter are withdrawn for do
mestic consumption, foreign wheat at
AZ cents a bushel under the American
maket, can be ground by the American
miller without loss. At any price rep
resenting a greater difference than Az
cents there would be a proportionate
profit to the American miller"

TO GRIND CANADIAN WHEAT.
New Tariff Law Provides for Domestic
Sale of Ry.Products.

Minneapolis. Sept. 24.-The Mime
apolis -four mills win again be grind
ing Canadian wheat before another
crop has been raised in the United
States. This is the opinion of millers
who have given close study to the new
tariq bill and the drawback provisions
therein. The great obstacle in the way
of handling the imported raw material
has been the disposal of the by-pro-
duct. The bonding law on the statute
books prioc to the passage of the new
tariff act hold that the entire product
CT the imported wheat should be ex-
ported, and the plan was therefore
practically unavoidable. The mills OF

Strange Growth Of Olive Trees.

Attention is seldom called to re.
markable and curious characteristic Of
the olive tree. After many years OF
growth the different large branches
of the trees separate gradually from
the trunk until they are quite divided
from one another down into the root.
These then slowly move apart, and in
some instances six or seven distinct
trees stand in the area which before
surrounded the main tree, and they
will sometimes be as much as 20 fee.

WHITMAN WILL HAVE
FRESHMAN ENTRY
OF 125
From Everywhere Comes the
Demand for Admission
to the College.

From statements made this morning
by the authorities in charge at Whit
man great expectations are held for
an increased registration at the college
this coming year. Already 125 appli-
cations have been made for admission
to the Freshman class. This number
includes students who are holding hon.
or scholarships from the different high
schools in the states of Washington and
Idaho Thirty-five of the scholarships
have been issued and the holders rep
resent the pick of the students in the
different high schools.
Registration in Pearsons academy
will also make material progress. 1t
is estimated that the increase in stu
dents in that institution will amount to
at least 20 per cent A noticeable fea-
ture in the registration is the great
number of applications which are be-
ing received from local city students
and also from the country districts
In face of the increase of tuition was
decided upon last June by the board
of overseers this increase in fegistra
ton looks promising.
