PALACE HOTEL ADDITION
Big Contract For Fine New Build
ing Let to Pullman and Col Nv
fax Contractors

The contract for the addition to
! the Palace hotel was let Saturday to
| l.. w. Bartlett, of Pullman, and j. r.
Good, of Colfax. Mr.. Bartlett takes
the entire contract at $17,500, and
sublets the contract for the mill work
to j. r. Good & Co., of Colfax. Mr.
Good was here when the bids were
Iopened aud the contract let. The
plans were drawn by William Swain,
architect, of Pullman.
The addition is to be on the south
side of the present building and will
be 40x120 feet. The front of the
Ilower floor, 40xS0 feet, will be used
as store room, and back of that will
be two large sample rooms for COM
merCial men. The building is to be
steam heated and plumbed through
out, including the present building.
The upper floor will be used for bed
rooms and will add about 20 more
rooms to the present capacity of the
house. There will be hot and cold
water in most of the rooms and sew
eral of them will have private bath.
Work is to begin as soon as the
material can be assembled and will
be rushed, with view of getting it in
readiness for occupancy by Christmas,
at the latest. The building is to be
of brick, and these will probably be
made in Pullman.
The store room will probably be oc
cupied by large store, as there are
several inquiries for such a building
and while it has not been leased
there is little doubt that it will be let
before the building is finished for sew
eral parties have been making in
quiries for such a building.

THE FOOTBALL SQUAD
Indications That Washington State
College VIII Have "a Champion
ship Team

Many of the old football stars are
back in school and the squad went
out for a practice Thursday evening.
All who saw the men at work are en-
thusiastic over the outlook for a win
ming team this year Under the man
agement of John H. Jones, graduate
manager, who is an athlete of no
mean ability; and Coach Kienholz,
whose work is known throughout the
northwest, there is no doubt that the
State College will again show up with
the championship team.
Among the old players who have
won fame for the college in the past
years, and especially in last seasons
games, are Cave, Cheely, Jumbo
Hunter, Fishback, Laird, Coohn,
Boone, Galbraith, Big" Deaner and
Jack Foran In addition to these
viii Miner will be in school again
and is expected to play and Fancher,
the great quarterback OF the 1907
team, is again in the school. Big
Anderson, the Seattle high school
star. who set record for the weight
events, will be in the team and new
man by the name Of White, VINO
comes fhom an eastern school, gives
promise of being a winner.
The first game of the season, ac-
cording to the present schedule VIII
be with the Puget Sound University,
on October 10. Efforts are being
made to get some games before that
time If possible. 1t seems quite nke-
ly that a game will be played in Spo-
kane with the Haskell Indian school,
fof which Johnny Bender is coacn,
bat this will not be until December.

FLANDERs HOME is SOLD

Another Pullman home has beeL
sold to a Colfax family this week.
The F. F. Flanders residence on Col
lege hill, was bought by Mrs. Marie
Rosenkranz, of Colfax, through the
real estate agency of D. b. Putnam &
Son, the price paid being $1,000. This
is regarded as cheap for the property,
but Mr.. Flanders has a good position
with the federal government and
will probably not return to Pullman.
Mrs. Rosenkranz is a widow with a
family of children who need educa-
tional advantages such as are to be
had at Pullman and she comes here
because of the college. The family
will occupy the house at once.

Campbell System Pays.

The farmers of Fergus county have
been very much interested in the work
at the experiment station. The results
obtained there this year are indeed
mos satisfactory, says the Lewistown
News. The men in charge of it have
proved beyond a doubt that the sys.
ten of guilty alton of the soil accord
ing to the Campbell system of dry
farming will produce wonderful crops
in the Judith Basin.
This experiment has been tried: A
plot Of ground "a divided into three
equal areas, the soil of all being SINH
lar and the conditions the same. 1t
was all planted in Turkey Red wheat;
O%ne-third of it was treated one way,
another third another way and the
remaining third according to the
Campbell syste n. The grain grew
and the crop was harvested. The
threshing of it has recently been com
pleted. Off one piece they reaped 45
bushels of wheat per acre, off another
Sc bushels aud off the third piece 62A
bushels Of wheat. This shows that
the Campbell system pays.
