The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-04-15

Correspondents from the great
wheat country east of the mountains
indicate the greatest wheat crop ever
harvested in the states of Washington
Oregon and Idaho. Most of that
country laid under the snow for
greater period of time than for many
years, and March not being as windy
as common, has left the winter wheat
in excellent condition. AS wheat is
still very high it would look as though
the wheat raisers in the "East of the
Mountains Country" were to have an.
other very prosperous year. When it
is remembered that the wheat crops
of Washington, Oregon and Idaho av-
erage more than twice as much per
acre as the average of the remainder
of the United States, it can be under
stood why SO many people are COM
ing west and going into the wheat
raising business.

Farmers of the state have an i'm
portant question before them in the
selection of the candidates for the
legislature in the coming election.
IT narrow men of small calibre sit
in the legislature, the fault is with
the voter. When the voter learns to
act for himself and not allow 2x4
politicians to dictate for whom he is
to vote, then will we have ADLER men
in our legislature. The trouble is,
and always has been that the politl-
clan who works everyday in the week,
Sunday included, fixes up slate for
either party, and only men selected
by them appear on the ballot. The
result is that it makes very little
difference which ballot you use, for
they will serve their masters, and not
the people, because the people are not
their masters. The Ranch believes
political parties are essential to good
government bat it does not believe in
blind following of party which places
party success above country's welfare.

low round trip rates.

The National Association of Here
fords and Short horns are offering
premiums for the coming Washington
State fair at North Yakima, to the
amount of $500. This should encour-
age the breeders of the beef type of
cattle to be represented there. Live
stock breeders are offering prize mon
ey to an amount of S35, 900, for this
fair, plans are now being built to
house 1000 head of stock.

The different fairs of the three states
of Washington, Idaho and Oregon are
offering a total amount of premiums
of more than S75, 900 for running ard
driving races at the coming season.
There are now in these three states,
over three hundred firms breeding
horses of the different types. This
shows a great awakening among horse
en-, and these fine premiums will
greatly stimulate the industry.

The Magazines.

Suburban Life for April seems to
be better than ever. The article of
"Seven Months of Rose Blooming
is worthy of the careful reading of
every person who raises rose bushes.
The article on dahlias is another
splendid one, and will bring this fa-
vorite flower mole prominently before
growers than ever. There are also
some excellent stories lie it for SubuI-
ban dwellers.
Harper's Weekly is as usual strong
in all of its departments, and the issue
of April 2nd had splendid article
on the 'lnsurgents' giving the atti-
tude of the Insurgent Repub licans in
the House of Representatives This
struggle in the House has caused the
greatest political sensation for gen
Grafton, and every man should study
it from all it's different points.
Harper's magazine for April is I'M
usually strong in all departments.
One particular article by Robert
Shackelton, "Once a Highway for the
world" Another of considerable in.
terest is by Florence Loucus Sancille,
describing the working girls in the
Pennsylvania Silk Mills. In this she
gives these girls a most excellent re-
putation. In spite of their roughness
and ignorance, owing to their hard
toll and lack of school facilities, they
are generous, moral and helpful to
each other.

ADVERTISE SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA LANDS
At VERY LOW RATES FOR NINETY DAYS

The filing Of land suits in the fed.
era court has had the effect Of making
all titles on the Indian Territory side
Of the state questionable and has
served to keep many investors out Of
this state. Such doubts ought not to
exist. There are thousands Of farms
here for sale where the title is as
good as in any portion of the world.
Southern Oklahoma needs to have
these lands purchased and put In a
state Of cultivation Farmers in other
states need the lands, they should
know that titles are good In Oklahoma,
they should know something OF the
lands and something Of the products
that grow here.
In order to give the farmer IN other

BEDROOMS ARE BEAUTIFIED
WITH INEXPENSIVE CfiINTZ

\ woman who likes pretty bedroom
and has only A. little money to spend
in refittinG it should invest now, when
the shops are filled with bargains IN
cretonne and other upholstery goods.
And the same argument holds for wall
paper, for beautiful patterns will be
found ma rked down now because deal
ers do not care to carry them over an
other season. Thus by a little search
ing walls and han2ings that match may
be found.
Cretonnes and chintzes offer qlIainter
effects than any other materials. as was
demonstrated to me recently when a bed
room done III cretonne was entirely
changed AT very small cost.
This room contained a bed couch, a
dressing table and bureau, as well as
an armchair and a side chair. And every
piece except the side chair. was covered
with a yellow ground cretonne, through
which sprays of green and red flowers
We're strcWn. The covers We're slips that
could be easily removed to wash, but
they had no effect of makeshift.

A box-pleated border finished each.
That for the bed was just long enough
to clear the floor all around. 1t was
split at the bottom corners to fit over
the foot rail. The length of all was suf-
ficient for the head to turn back over
the bed yard. and under this fold the
pillows were placed. Their weight was
sufficient to keep the cover in place.
The cover was finished across the top
and all around the edges with "A five
inch ruf1e. the pleating lying across the
top of the bed below the pillows like
the edge of old-fashioned sham. The
chair cover hung down twelve inches
with the ruff1e at the bottom. The couch
cover just cleared the floor.
The bureau and dressing table, marble
topped. had fiat covers cut the shape of
the marble. Their finish was also box
peated ruff1es: in this instance pressed
fiat. The pleats were fiat on the top,
being out of the way of drawers.
Any of these covers could be made at
home without patterns by woman who
has the slightest knack in sewing. The
material may be pinned on and cut to
fiji. making allowance for seams. The
best finish is A French seam. coming out
