Idaho wheat mikes good showing

While samples OF wheat from
Idaho exhibited at the National
corn Exposition in Omaho last
December, did not get into the
prize winning classes, they did
make showing which gives assur
ance that they will win at the 1909
Exposition when the classifcations
are readjusted as promised by the
management of the big show
Idaho oats scored high in competi-
ton with oats of the world and the
scores given wheat milling test
are high.
Samples of wheat grown by L
N. Birch of Roswell, j. w. Hart
man and A. w. Andrew of Farms,
Kilpatrick& Hurt and Edgar Dilley OF
Roswell, scored from 90 to IS points
out of a possible 100, against
whe IS adapted to making light
bread -four from Minnesota, Ne
braska, Kan ,as, South Dakota,
North Dakota, Wisconsin and Hi
uois.
In scoring this wheat the judges
had it tested in Minneapolis labor
atories, then milled and baked
under the direction of one of the
largest milling companies of the
United States. Points were award
ed as follows; yield of -four &c
points, texture and color of loaf IS
points, size of loaf 80 points, alb
sorption 10 points, soundness and
flavor IS points, percent and qua
lily of gluten 10 points.
With only the FIVE samples enter
ed from Idaho. it can scarcely be
said the wheat of this state were
we'll represented. and yet those sent
in made a creditable showing when
it was considered the highest score
was 80 and awarded to a sample
from Nebraska, 1t was the first
year for small grains to receive
ucognition at a big agriculture
show but their importance is to be
| emphasized at tine 1909 Exposition

GIRL LURED TO ruin

AS the first step in a cam
paign of the Jewish Brother
hood of Spokane to rid the
city of undesirable residents of Jew
ish extraction, Phillip Levy, Rosa
Perkins and Abraham Rosenwiz-
wigz were arres' ed last night. The
two former are accused Of Turing to
a life of shame Mollie Miller, Jew
ish girl, and leaving her sick and
destitute. The girl is now in a
critical condition in room 81 of the
Odell lodging house, First avenue,
near Jefferson street. Further ar
rests in connection with the case
will probably be made. Rosenwiz-
wigz is charged with vagranCy.
The protective committee of the
brotherhood of which Sam Edel-
stein, an attorney, is the chairman,
was assigned the special task OF
Kidding the city of all disreputable
characters of Jewish extraction
The committee is to devote parti.
cular attention to Jewish parasites
and their victims with the hope o.
putting stop to the white slave
traffic among people of the Jewish
race in Spokane.
The warrant for the arrest o.
Levy was sworn out yesterday by
Yeta Miller, a Jewess whom, it il
alleged, Levy brutally assaulted
following a protest by the cir
against the cruelty to which he hac
subjected Mollie Miller.
That she was lured from al
honest life in New York, wher
sue was employed as domestic, b,
Rosa Perkins a nd Levy and induce
:. to come to Spokane and adopt
life of shame, is the story related b.
the Miller girl.
Upon her arrival here she wa
r forced to the streets by the coupl
> and every night forced to give be
earnings to Levy, she declares
= When she was stricken with diseas
$ he refused her any support or aid
cursed and struck her, she says.
The police declare that Levy hs
a number of women in the city VIII
are his slaves and who contribu
all of their earnings to him.

we will be looking with as much
eagerness to water for mechanical

II am not a socialist, but am
positive that the future prosperity
of communicates and estates of this
great nation depends upon the use
of land, water, forests, mines and
other national resources, and thes.
must be conserved for the general
good rather than squandered tn
rough private selfishness.
There is another ques ton that
it appeared to me was needed tor
the benefit of the farmer himself;
namely, how to irrigate. | believe
the congress ought to be more OF
an agency for the propaganda OF
practical instruction concerning the
filling Of the soil under irrigation
this on account of the large number
of immigrants and settlers coming
from the east to settle in irrigated
districts who know nothing about
farming in arid regions under irri
CATION.
IF there conld be prepared {
series of short papers, dealing with
different subjects, such as prepare
ton of the land, amount of watel
needed, how to be applied, method
of cultivation or tillage and othe
matters, and if, subsequently, these
could be printed in small leaflet
and spread throughout the irri
gated districts they would be vas
deal more service than the annua

considerable fortune, and it was at
Saratoga, while watching the races,
that he decided to acquire stable

purchases were made in the ring,
after he had cashed a bet on the
one which he favored. Grimstead
and Rutherford were two of his
horses purchased in this manner.
By the time his string was complete
he began to attract the attention Of
the racing public by his long record
OF victories. He won the American
derby four times with the Emperor
of Norfolk, Silver Cloud, Volante
and Bay ell Santa Anita. In Sara
toga, during one season, he captur-
ed fifteen of the twenty five stake
events in which he had entries,
1t was during this period that his
horses were ridden by Isaac Muir

as was Baldwin among owners
On many occasions his commits
soners wagered and won or los
fortunes on asingle race, and one o
his greatest coups wss the winning
of $62, 900. at long odds on mar

When he finally determined t.
settle in California and establish

immense establishment of Jane

were scattered up and down th
length of the state. He purchase
the ranch at Santa Anita fer $2oc
900, and built splendid hotel a
the southern end of Lake Tahoe
and in San Francisco he built an

INCREASE The BOUNTY.

The state livestock anitary
board at recent meeting held in
Boise increased the rate of bounty
70 be paid for coyotes, cats and lyx
from 81 to $3.50 aud the tate on
timber wolves from 81 to SIS. In
the future, however, no poison will
be furnished to hunters. The board
is unanimously of the opinion that
the bounty system has proven more
successful than the plan of employ
ing trappers and hunters by the day,
1t is pointed out that since the
present method went into effect last
January more predatory animals
have been killed than for any
similar period in the past. The
board would like to offer still
larger bounty, but the available
funds will not permit. Predatory
animals have been destroyed since
the first Of the year as follows:
Coyotes, 6245; cats, $50; lyx, 29.
In both Owybee and Fremont
counties the number of coyotes ex-
ceeded 500, while in Boise county
almost one-h half of the total number
of lynx reported were killed,

Eight CO operative state laws or
federal law will eventually regulate
the water supply, not by the ripa-
rian rights nor by the priority right
but by the equitable distribution OF
water in the irrigated districts"
F w. Blackman of Lawrence,
regent of the University of Kansas,
lays emphasis upon the foregoing
in letter to B. Insinger, chairman
of the local board OF control of the
18th National Irrigation Congress,
of which George E. Barstow of
Barstow, Texas, is president. He
suggests that the congress. viii CHI
will meet in SPOKANE August 9 to
IA. as we'll as future gatherings
should be scientific associations for
the solution of specific problems.
1.-THE earlier congresses" he
writes, "were largely modes of agi-
tation and propaganda. Past con,
crosses have served a useful pur-
pose in discussing wide ranges of
subjects, but sufficient progress has
been made so that the future cong
resses may be more scientific and
less popular.
Among these specific problems
demanding Immediate attention |
think that an irrigation law should
occupy prominent place. The re-
lation of riparian rights to priority
rights is now and will be one of the
most troublesome questions that the
people have 10 settle.
1T was unfortunate that the
government at its foundation did
not understand something about the
future cultivation OF arid lands and
put the land and water together
making them one and inseparable
and then to divide the land into
irrigation districts determined by
drainage basins, and thus insure
each acre within given drainage
basin its proportionate amount o.
water. This would have saved mil
lions of dollars worth of property
and million of dollars of expense il
legislation,
"As it is, believe we are slowly
trending toward this result; ant
either cooperative state laws or fed
eral law will eventually regulat,
the water supply, not by the ripa
rain rights nor by the priority RICH
but by the equitable distribution o
water in the irrigated districts.
Another very important prob
lem is thu water power of tn
streams in the arid region, Grea
companies are reaching everywher
to monopolize this water powe
and put a perpetual tax for its lie
on future generations. If there
a natural resource that ought t
belong to the people at large it
the water in streams and lakes.
For domestic use, for irrigation
for transportation and for powe
the states in the west ought to Sc
to 1t at once that laws are passed t
give the state absolute and perpt
tual control and oWne ship of til
water power of our streams, Fo'
while we are now looking TO waite
for irrigation, in another ter year

week. meeting at Rheims has been
highly successful financially.
There were over 800, 900 paid entries
to the aerodrome and probably 100, 00e
more people witnessed the flights from
the hills outside the course. The aero
plane companies took orders for fifty
two aeroplanes during the week, most
of them persons not before interested
in aviation. This fact alone proves
how powerfully the imagination has
been affected by the wonderful scenes
witnessed here. Manufacturers believe
that sportsmen of every country Will
now begin to buy aeroplanes. particu-
larly as the number of actual flights
here during the week, estimated at over
1900, We're without a single fatal acct
dent. This demonstrates that flying is
no more dangerous than was automo-
billing in its early stages. The cost of
the different machines ranges from 81
600 to $4,000.

Latham said that after he reached al:
altitude of 500 feet his engine, due

ciated Press srevealed an appalling
condition. People who had been saved
from the flood of Saturday morning
had been without food until, on some
cables, a small amount of bread and
beans was sent across. The river was
still running swiftly and in order to
get across it was necessary to wade
through half a mile of water so as
to avert the current which was still
strong enough to sweep a man from
his feet. Once on the south side of
the river, evidences of the terrible de-
struction wrought by the flood were
to be seen on every side. Five blocks
of the district were as though they
had never existed and in the remain
ing portion of the district bodies were
being taken from the ruins and
buried by party of gendarmes sent
across for the purpose
Thus far no Americans have been
reported lost and 1t is not expected
any of them are missing, as few for
eign families resided in the district.
Many houses have fallen in the eff
fects of continuous rains which have
occurred during the ~ hours ending
noon Sunday. During this time p Is
inches of rain fell in Monterey and
up the Santa Catarina. canyon.

the San Francisco church which was
the oldest building in the city. The
