Much Depends
On One Motion

PORTLAND, Ore, April 13.-1n a
motion to amend the complaint of the
United States against c. A. Smith, a
millionaire timberland owner, of Min
neapolis. Mimi, United States District
Attorney John McCourt has asked the
fedora, district court to sustain the
right of the government to lodge an
action in equity for the recovery of the
value of lands in this state acquired
through fraud, where the statute of
limitations prevents either criminal
prosecution or an action to set aside
the patents. Ringing on the disposal
of this motion is. it is stated, the filing
of a large number of suits by the
department of justice for recovery of
the value of all lands in oregon which
the government claims were secured
by the patentee through fraud.
The arguments on the motion have
been set to begin Monday, April Is.
In a statement regarding the mo-.
ton. District Attorney McCourt said:
Corrupt men have obtained valuable
lands through the use of dummy en-
trymen, forging names to applications
fl ed in the land offices of the state
and afterward transferring them by
deeds which must have been secured
in the same way.
TN many cases the government has
ascertained that men were hired to
make fl ings and to allow the use of
their names; in other cases which have
been investigated the men and wo-
men actually went upon the land and
complied with the law after making
contract with corporation by which
they were to receive a certain amount
of money.
Heretofore the government has been
heIpless to recover against such men
and corporations unless suit to cancel
the patent was begun within six years
following it's issue, or criminal in
dictment was returned within three
wears after the act was committed"
The claims are each of $50 acres,
COR which the patentee paid $3.50.
MANY of the claims were said to be
worth from $4,000 to- $4,000 and the
ability of the government to recover
their actual value will mean the COW
ering into the national treasury of
millions of dollars.

Experiment in
Corn Growing

Following out a policy that was in
augurated in this country by the farm
experimental station at Washington
State college sometime ago, several of
the prominent farmers in this valley
intend to again try the experiment of
planting field corn on their summer
falow this spring.
1t is claimed by the authorities at
the State college, that corn planted on
summerfallow will not hurt the
ground at all as far as raising wheat
is concerned, and in fact that it will
enrich the soil. They say that as
many crops of corn can be raised
off the same piece of land as wheat
This of course is an old story in one
way, but since it comes from authori-
ties who are experts, the experiment
is well worth trying in some of our
larger dry land fields.
Consequently j. ]. Mangen, one of
the valleys most prosperous and
large farmers, who farms about 1900
acres of land near Clyde. has resolved
to plant 100 or more acres on his
summerfallow and draw his own con-
illusions.
tTICQ oQSCGSSlQhJs
III. H. Hungate tried the same ex-
pertinent and found it success. He
now has some extra good seed corn
which Mr.. Mangen will use.
Oliver Cornwell last year planted
about 40 acres out Of a 70-acre field
into corn. After the corn mad been
harve sted, and averaging up, the yield
per acre, he found that on the 40
acres, the wheat yield was from II
to 30 bushels per acre less than that
upon which the corn had not been
planted.
In spite of this, many of the farm
ers of the valley agree that if properly
taken care of, the corn Will not in
anyway injure the wheat raising value
of the land; in other words, that it
will not bother the moisture to any
degree.
In interviewing other farmers OF the
valley several men stated that all the
farm lands north and west Of town
were summerfallowed to hold the
moisture, that the land needed all II
could get to raise good wheat. and
that the planting OF corn would de-
crease the yield of the wheat by abb
sorbing too much Of the moisture from

the land.

the land.
However, since tie authorities at
Pullman are so storing in their belief
and their knowledge is expert. the
farmers will again try the expert
ment in this valley. Mr.. Mangen is
not the only one who is contemplate
ing this move. Many of the smaller
farmers will plant corn in their sum-
merfallow and see the result for
themselves.
