DEATH
son OF THOMAS NOLAN DROWN
ED WHILE PLAYING ON CANAL
OF VALLEY POWER PLANT
SANK AT ONCE.

Drowned while playing along the
banks of the Valley Power company's
canal at noon yesterday, little John
Patrick Nolan, year old son of the
Wenatchee tailor, had prompt assist
ance IN his time Of need but he sank
too quickly to give his rescuers any
chance for action.
Before his body could be recovered
more than ten minutes had elapsed
and although Drs. Whitney AMI Par
ker were present the little lad could
not be made to breathe again.
Warned to stay away, his childish
impulse was too strong. His father
and little brothers were visiting with
Mike Carr, uncle of the boys. The
mother lives at Quincy and has been
out of health. Because of her lack
of health the boys had been taken
on the trip to where their uncle was,
and seem to have been too full of
spirits for any but a mothers eyes
to watch.

ACCEPTED LIBRARY
PLANS
LOCAL ARCHITECT HAS CHARGE
OF LIBRARY BUILDING TO BE
BUILT IN CITY PARK-KEY-
STONE GROUND PLAN.

Imposing and classic in every de-
tail the library building that is to
be started at once ranks as the city's
most ornamental structure.
Planned by Architect Howard E
Gray in the keystone shape to
fit the gore in the park, the library
does not require 20 per cent of the
public square, and comfort stations
in the basement more than compen-
safe for the space the building takes.
Librarians in charge can see over
the entire first floor from the want
age point of the librarians desk, al
though there are several rooms, but
the design is the lone attendant
style" that is gaining favor in all the
smaller cities.
Facing the entrance the attend
ants desk is placed at the rear of
the auditorium. On his right is the
children's room, and back of that the
adults book room and back Of the
desk are two rest rooms, one at
either corner.
Open shelves are the rule, under
the librarians supervision, the shelf
space providing for 5000 volumes.
In the basement the ladies have a
special room on the east side, the
committee room being on the other.
A small stack room is also provided
in the basement.
Concrete and pressed brick con-
stitute the building material. The
entrance design is impressive ana the
whole ensemble is one that will
please the city.

INCREASE IN DRY
FARMING
TWO HUNDRED MILLION ACRES
OF WESTERN LAND AVAIL
ABLE FOR WHEAT NOT YET IN
USE.

Spokane, Wash, May 9.-Commer-
cial conditions in every city and town
in the western grain growing states
will be changed before 1915 as the
result of increases in farm produc-
ton, If the plans of the Dry Farming
Congress, which has headquarters in
Spokane, are carried out as planned
by the national officers, headed by
Congressman F. w. Mondell of Wyo-
ming and the Washington board of
control.
John T. Burns, secretary of the or
ganization, who compiled the follow
ing data, believes the cooperation of
the farmers of the country in this
movement will bring about greater
transportation development, increas-
ed marketing and milling facilities
and corresponding gains in every line
of trade and commerce. He says:
"The total acreage of the twenty
wheat growing states was about 49,
265,000 in 1909, and the average
acre production was eos bushels, or
At bushels above the general average
for the United States. The greatest
increase was in the states where the
most attention has been given to SCI
entific methods.
1.-TWO hundred million acres of IN
occupied lands in the western states
can be placed under the pillow with
in the next four years if we push the
dry farming propaganda to its limits,
and of this fully 100000 acres
will be wheat producing land. This
increase in acreage means farm pro-
duction which will change the COM
mercial conditions of every city and
town in the western states.
Experiments in the states, where
dry farming is practiced. show we
can increase the production Of wheat
by at least five bushels the acre, and
taking 1t upon the basis of the pres
emit acreage, this means a total OF
166,175,000 bushels additional year
" in the western states alone. Fig
ured upon nominal increase, which
we might place upon double the pres
ent acreage, this means an annual
wheat production of 702,864, 900
bushels in the western states, or al
most equal the yield of the entire
country in 1909"
