FARMER BOYS CORN.
Professor Thatcher of State Expert.
ment Station Gets Report in
Growing Contest.

Professor Thatcher of the state ex-
pertinent station at the State college
is receiving reports from the boys who
entered the boys corn growing con-
test, inaugurated from the farm trains
last spring. In connection with the
o. r. g. N. company the state college
presented seed corn to the boys of
Whitman, Garfield, Columbia and Walla
Walla counties to be used in the con-
test. A sweepstakes prize for the best
yield of corn of 500 was offered, and
in each of the counties prizes of $40,
$50, $50 and $40 were hung up for the
best yields. Three prizes for the best
10 ears of corn from the competing
tracts were offered of S., SO and So
respectively.
None of the reports shows less than
80 bushels to the acre and will average
above that figure. The best report
received to date shows 1894 bushels to
the acre.
This young farmer, in a certified re-
port, shows that previous to planting
his tract he worked the ground over
nine times and after the corn was
planted the tract was cultivated five
times. Committees have been appoint
ed in each locality and every report
is vouched for.

FOR MORE FARM WAREHOUSES;.
Farmers Union Plans to Divide Houses
Into Groups to Operate With
Central Agency.

One of the most important moves to
be made by the Farmers Educational
and Cooperative union during the pres
ent year, according to State President
L. G. Crow, is the districting of the
warehouses owned OF leased by the
union in the grand jurisdiction, which
comprises Washington and the pam
handle of Idaho.
The plan is to form five or six dis
trcts, with a central selling agency in
each district, the agency to be located
in the commercial center Of the dis
trict. The central agency in each dis
trict will be in close touch with the
Coast agency, and the manager of each
warehouse in the district will in turn
be kept advised of conditions of the
grain market through the central
agency.
The central agencies in the five or
six districts will have control of the
entire warehouse system of the union.
Each agency will have control of the
warehouses in its territory, while the
heads of agencies will form a board of
directors.
Where the locals do not, or can not,
own or operate a warehouse the mem
bers will store their grain in the old
line houses and mark it, reporting to
their local secretary as to the amount
stored, who, in turn, reports to the cen
trail selling agency in the district.
The warehouse business, as handled
by the union during the last year, has
been successful beyond expectation and
has saved the farmers no little money
Much of the grain held until prices ad
vanced was held in union warehouses
and under advice of leaders in the
union, who were keeping in close touch
with conditions through the agency on
the Coast.
The union in eastern Washington
President Crow says, is increasing in
membership rapidly.

HULL WANTS FOR
ARMY ss5,sl2,7ls
Objects to Statement by Tawney That
Wars Cost Nation ~ Per Cent
of RaYeuua

1.-THE wonderful results of the civil
war are responsible for the enormous
cost to the nation annually of wars past
and to come" declared Mr.. Hull of
Iowa, in explaining the provisions of
the army bill, which calls for an APP
preparation of $95,612,71s.
Mr. Hull said the army and navy
cost the United States not more than
$255, 100000 annually. He took ex
ception to a statement made by Chair
man Tawney of the appropriations com
mittee that wars past and those being
prepared for were costing the nation
~ per cent of its net revenues annually.
The $120,0O0,oOO given annually in
pensions, Mr.. Hull said, should not
be included as a war cost, being rather
a charity. He justified the enormous
amount so spent because the result of
the war which made the appropriation
necessary was to keep the republic in
tact. Had there been any other result,
he said, the country eventually would
have been divided into half a dozen re-
publics, none of them important enough
to command the respect of the world
powers.
