Not only may previously sorested

purposes.

European countries in reforcststton, es-

munes, associations, and private tndi-
yiduais are also assisted in reforcsta-

supplies Of plants and seeds. Aitoee-

Taft's Message
To Congress

Washington, March II President
Taft's message to congress Tuesday fol
lows:
To the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives: have convened the con-
gress in this extra session in order to
enable 1T to give immediate considera-
ton to the revision of the Dingley tar.
if act.
Conditions affecting production,
manufacturing and business generally
have so changed in the last 2 ears as
to require readjustment and revision
of the important duties imposed by
that act.
More than this, the present tariff
with the other sources of government
revenue, does not furnish income
enough to pay the authorized expendi-
lures. BY July l, next, the excess of
expenses over receipts for the year will
equal 500, 100000.
The successful party in the late cleo
ton is pledged to a revision of the
tariff. The country and the business
community especially expects it.
The prospect of change in the rates
or Import duties always causes sus-
pension or halt in business, because of
the uncertainty as to the changes TO be
made and their effect. 1t is therefore
OF the highest Importance that the new
Dill should be agreed upon and passed
with as much speed as possible consist
ent with its due and thorough consid-
era ton.
For these reasons l have deemed the
present to be an extraordinary occasion
within the meaning of the constitution
Justlfying and requiring the calling of
an extra session.
In my inaugural address I stated in
summary way the principles upon
which, in my judgment, the revision
OF the tariff should proceed and indi-
Gated at least one new source of rev.
enue that may be properly resorted to
IN order to avoid future deficit. 1t
is not necessary for me to repeat what
l then said.
L venture to suggest that the vital
business interests of the c-untry re-
qulre that the attention of the congress
in this session be chiefly devoted to the
consideration of the new tariff bill and
that the less time given to other SUBJ
Jects OF legislation in this session the
better for the country.

Keeping Milk Sweet

In some of the milk studies made at
the New York Agricultural Experiment
Station (Geneva), 1t was observed that
carbonic acid gas In the milk tended
to prevent Its souring. This seemed
worthy Of further investigation and a
series Of tests was conducted In which
the gas was combined with the milk
under varying pressures. using the
ordinary soda water charges and seal
ing the bottles to retain the gas and
exclude the air. With the higher
pressures Of gas, souring Of the milk
was delayed indefinitely; as bottles
charged under pressure of It's pounds
to the inch remained sweet for Ave
months. The milk thus treated makes
an agreeable drink. and it is believed
that the process will be valuable for
preserving milk for use on sea going
vessels. In hospitals. and elsewhere.
Full details Of the tests are given In
Bulletin No. 292 Of the station, which
nay be obtained on application.

CARGO OF FEIGHT FROM
CELLO, OREGON.
STEAMER INLAND EMPIRE ON
ITS ARRIVAL WAS GREETED
BY 5000 PEOPLE.

Lewiston, Idaho, March 15.-Lewis.
ton last Sunday became port of entry
for the Oper River Transportation com.
pany's boats when the little steamer
Inland Empire, from Cello, Ore, on
the Columbia river, glided into the har,
Dor, watched by crowd of 5000
which gave three cheers and a tiger
as the deck hands made the line fast
and brought the boat to her mooring.
With 35 tons of freight, which is less
than one-fifth Of its capacity, the boat
road high on the placid waters of the
Snake river. 1t had plowed through
swift and shallow rapids with per-
ceptible slackening of speed and dem
onstrated beyond bubble that the
Snake river can be navigated from
Lewiston to where it flows into the
Columbia.
No occasion in recent years has been
so generally appreciated as being pro-
pitious for Lewiston.
The Steamer Inland Empire, which
drew less than "a inches Of water, had
easily navigated the Snake and Co
llFClo W lIcWl0GOu lTOm S0lllO,
terrupted steamer service from the
Clearwater river to the Pacific ocean
occurring at Cello.
Merchants and jobbers boarded the
boat and looked through the hold at
the piles of freight, much of it brought
at saving of almost so per cent,
pleased to know that at last Lewiston
is the gateway city in fact as well as
in name.
The boat goes into regular weekly
service and it is the fond hope of Dor
sey B. Smith that a sister steamer will
be in service next year. Captain Rigg
declares that he will stem the rapids
during any ordinary stage Of low water
and scorned the suggestion that he
could line the rapids if necessary.
The cargo will be unloaded at once
in order that the steamer can make
the trip to Asotin with the visiting
delegates to Federated Commercial
clubs as guests.

THEY SAVE HIS HAND,
Physicians Successfully Attach Member
Severed From Wrist.

Kalamazoo, Mich.-The hand that
was severed from the wrist Of Charles
Miller at a paper factory here recently
has been successfully rejoined to his
arm and it is said the young man will
shortly be discharged from Bronson
hospital with the prospect of regaining
full use of his hand.
Only small piece of flesh held the
hand and his arm together when the
accident occurred, but the doctors
quickly bound them together and the
wound has rapidly healed.
Doctors here say that such operations
have resulted successfully.

Graft and stock,

The question of the influence of the
stock on the graft and vice versa has
been much discussed. The experiments
recorded by NJ. l.. Guignard In the
Complies Rendus were made with a
view Of discovering whether -thereTW
any migration of chemical substances
from the one to the other. Plants rich
In compounds of hydrocyanic acid were
chosen, ms this Is easy to detect. 1t was
found that when a plant containing q
hydrocyanic glucoslde Is grated on one
destitute Of 1t, or inversed, there ia no
passage of this substance from the one
to the other. The general conclusion
seems to be that grating is a sort Of
artificial symbiosis in which each spe-.
Giles retains its Individuality.

winners is about 3S miles behind the
record of no miles made several years
ago by Cavanaugh and Hegelman.

probably apply for class D ranking,
which permits salary limit of $125O
but which will probably be far exceed
ed, by the following towns: Winnipeg,
Brandon, Medicine Hat, Calgary, Leth.

The Inland Empire league, which
with all the other leagues mentioned
later, will probably run independently
of the National association. Walla

City are planning reorganization on
more substantial lines than when they
disbanded late in July of last year.

the organizer of four or six club
league in the Lewiston country, full
plans of which have not been given
out.
Chewelah, Kettle Falls and Colville,

The Bureau of Plant Industry has
prepared the following statement in
anticipation of inquiries concerning
Alaska" wheat:
A variety Of wheat under the name
of ALASKA" is being widely advertised
as capable Of yielding at the rate Of
200 bushels to the acre under ordinary
soil conditions and even better under
extra conditions" 1t Is stated that
this variety was found growing wild in
Alaska, and claims Of the most ex-
travagant nature are made for It. In
consequence Of this notoriety the de-
partment Is receiving many requests for
seed
This type of wheat has been known
for many years both In this country and
in Europe. 1t has been tried at several
state experiment stations in the west
ern part Of the United States during
the past fifteen years. but nowhere have
the yields been high enough to merit
attention. The wheat has been grown
to very limited extent on certain
heavy undrained soils in France for
many years. In such locations It Is
said to yield rather better than ordla-
airy wheat, but as 1t Is one Of the poe r
est wheats known for making -four, It
Is never grown where ordinary varieties
If wheat will thrive.
