Cliff Wayne, assistant general pas
seneer agent for the Seaboard Air Line
railroad, was in Birmingham yesterday.
He was here to assist Capt. Jack w.
Johnson. and the local officers line up
the special trains which will be oper-
ated August 10 for points affected by
the special rates made to Birmingham.
1.-THE greatest excursion crowds that
have ever left Birmingham in any sea-
son will take advantage of the rates
offered for August 49," said Mr.. Wayne.
I'VE have numbers of applicants Tot
space on our trains and we believe tha'
the railroads will receive the very best
returns for the rates. Our company
will operate several extra cars on that
day. and we will make every effort to
handle the crowds comfortably on tho
return as on the outgoing trains. We
have arranged our train service in or
der to give every possible comfort to
our patrons"
In speaking of the efforts of his CON-
pany to popularize Wrightsville Beach
Mr. Wayne said:
"The people of Birmingham have
taken advantage of our work for
| Wrightsviile as perhaps no city In the
country. We have a larger crowd just
now at Wrightsville than any other re-
| sort on the Atlantic coast and believe
the people are well pleased. The ho-
| tel people at Wrightsville have assist
ed us in every way in making Wrights-
vile appeal to Birmingham people, and
we have not failed in our efforts by
any means. The people of Atlanta APP

virginia seems to be very prosperous,
said Frank s. Foster, assistant cashier
of the First National bank, who returned
a few days ago from his vacation trip.
IT divided my time while away between
my old home, Staunton, Va, and New
York In Virginia it seemed to be the
general impression that Ex-Governor
Swanson, who has just been appointed
by the governor to the late Senator Dan
iel's seat, will be chosen for full term
in the democratic primary in 1911, and
that Tom Martin, now the senior SEN
ator from Virginia, will be his own sue
cessor. Candidates for both seats Will be
nominated In the same primary next
year. There is some talk about ex-Gover-
nor Montague running against either
Swanson or Martin. but Martin has a
firm grip on the party machinery, and as
Swanson is an ally of his no anti-Martin
man need apply; at least that is what
yirginians seem to think.
',staunton voted dry at the last election
but the prohibition laws In Virginia are
not drastic like those of Alabama; and
liquor is legally served at the club and
is shipped in to individuals without any
legal restriction. But it is against the
law in any shape or form in Staunton,
and the law is we'll enforced"

MORE sPUDs, SAYS GRUB.

The potato is the most neglected
farm product in America today, ac-
cording to Expert E. H. Grub, and
where farmers of the intermountain
regions today raise from 100 to 200
sacks per acre, they can easily pro-
duce from 500 to 1000 sacks, which
will command a price double or three
times what is now received for infer
Tor tubers.
According to Mr.. Burley, who has
given the matter long and close at
tention with the idea of developing the
production of the county one acre
of land properly cultivated in this in
intermountain region will produce
$1,000 per acre in potatoes every year

MORE STRICT IN ASSESSMENT


T. B. Long has been appointed
deputy assessor to assess the prop
erty this year in the Payette district,
and will begin his work this week.
Mr.. Long has been notified that sew
eral new requirements have been i'm
posed upon the assessor this year.
One is that they must take military
list of all able bodied men between
the ages of Is and As years, inclu-
sive. Another provision of the law
which has not been observed in the
past but will be observed this year is
where a person has no personal prop
erty and no real estate the assessor
must collect the taxes at the time of
making assessment, and also collect
the poll tax. In the past it has not
been the custom to assess buildings
under construction, but the commits
sioners have instructed the assessor
to assess buildings and also lumber
on the ground ready for construction.

But one obstacle now delays the
immediate commencement of con-
struction work on the Payette Valley
road extension from New Plymouth
to Emmett. This is the broken right
of way. "The road has been financed,
part of the material has been secured
and just as soon as we get all the
right of way we will be ready to let
the contract for the construction of the
road" said H. E. Dunn, vice-presi-
dent and general manager of the road.
A large part of the right of way
from New Plymouth to Emmett has
been already secured, but of course
the contract will not be let for con-
struction until provision is made for
all of it. Since the financial part of
the extension has been settled, Manag-
er Dunn is very anxious to get the
right of way completed, as he wishes
to get the work started in time to COM
plete the road by the middle of the
summer.
Chief Engineer Sradley of the Ore
gon Short Line is expected here
within the next few days to look over
the surveyed route of the extension

The next point of interest in the
itinerary is Muir Glacier. This is
the first of the "ice mountains" to be
seen and is sight grand in the ex-
IRENE. The width of the face of
this reat glacier is now about four
miles divided in the middle by an
island. The right half of the glacier
is only partly active, while the leftis
constantly discharging bergs. Pas
sengers who desire are allowed to
land and climb this famous glacier.

coed to the Funter Bay Cannery.
THE SALMON CANNERY.
Funter Bay cannery is a revelation
to those who have not seen the work
lngs of the packing of food fish for
the market. Millions of salmon an
nually are taken from these waters
packed in tins after the most ap-
proved modern methods and take
their place in the food supply of the
world. Passengers have ample oppor-
tunity to inspect the cannery or
nearby Indian village.

GREAT BOON FOR
The FARMERS

Many thousands of dollars are lost
annually by both the farmers and the
seedsmen of the Northwest and Pacific
Coast States, through the purchase and
use of inferior seed. This loss is four
fold. First, through the purchase of
seed of low vitality, or seed contain
ing high percentage of worthless or
harmful impurities. Second, through
the resultant thin stand and poor crop
obtained for the same amount of la
Dor expended as for a good crop.
Third, through the seeding of the land
to worthless plants or to noxious
weeds. Fourth, through the loss Of
business to seedsmen.
This widespread and heavy annual
loss has been due, partially at least,
to the fact that the farmers and seeds
men alike have not had the means of
easily and accurately determining the
termination and purity of the seeds
purchased and used.

A PROCLAMATION


WHEREAS, by the Act of Congress
approved July 2, 1909, the Thirteenth
Decennial Census of the United
States is to be taken, beginning on
the 18th day OF April, nineteen hun
dred and ten; and
WHEREAS a correct enumeration
Of the population every ten years is
required by the Constitution of the
United States for the purpose of deter
mining the representation of the sew

tatives; and
WHEREAS it is of the utmost i'm

A LESSON FROM
The GREAT FLOOD
Caldwell, Idaho, March I'd, 1910.
Editor Caldwell Tribune:
Dear Sir

Editor Caldwell Tribune:
Dear Sir
1t seems that we have had quite a
rise in Indian Creek; that Caldwell
and its people have met with quite
some loss; yet it does not seem to
be great. But l have never met up
with a loss loss yet that l could not
figure some gain out of it. l have
heard many people say that we needed
wide and higher bridges across Indian
Creek. Now we can readily see the
folly of their suggestions. 1t is only
equaled by "Schenck's" folly. Not
as it was shown up by the "BORRO-
ughs", but as by "Schenck." Since
We have had the water to test the
bridges, streets-back as well as the
front lots, cellars ETC., we find that
the town can make a great saving
in the way of bridges. They can just
as we'll cut down at least one-half.
We can readily see now that what
water can not go down the creek,
can go down the streets, in the cellars
well, just "any old place." W. see
tht t is a cinch that when the water
comes it is sure to go whether we
have provided for it or not. So what
is the use to put the people out, or to
tax them to take care of it.

partment of Agriculture, in Co-opera-
tlon with the Oregon Agricultural
College has opened branch seed
testing laboratory at Corvallis, Ore
gon. This laboratory is solely for the
use OF the residents of the Pacific
Coast and adjoining states, for test
ing seeds free of charge. The work
OF this laboratory will include: llI
Inc identification of seeds of any
kind. (2) The examination of sam
pies for the presence of adulterants
and dodder. (3). The testing of
seeds for purity. (4) Testing for
termination.
lhls examination requires but little
time and will be given precedence
over all other work. All samples sent
for this purpose will be examined at
once and report sent by mail, or on re-
quest, by telegraph, at the expense of
the receiver.
TEST FOR PURITY.
This requires the separation of the
sample into three parts: % Pure
seed; (2) Foreign seed; 60 Dirt
and chatf; and the determination of the
percentage by weight of each of these
three parts and Identification of the
weed seed present.
This text requires considerable
time and can be made only by experts.
The facilities of the laboratory will
permit not more than five such tests
to be made for any one firm or in
dlvldual in any one calendar month.
Purity tests will be made and reports
sent as promptly as possible and in
the order in which the samples were
received.
TEST FOR TERMINATION.
This test is made to determine the
percentage of the seed which will
terminate under favorable conditions.
The seed of cereals, clovers and many
vegetables can be easily tested without
the use OF special apparatus. Some
seeds, however, including a number
of the grasses, are more difficult to
test requiring exact temperature and
moisture and considerable time.
Samples will be tested for germina-
ton in the order in which they are re-
ceived, and not more than ten tests
for termination will be made for any
one firm or individual in any one
calendar month.
DIRECTIONS FOR SENDING.
l. All samples should be drawn so
as to represent accurately the bulk
seed from which they are taken.
2. The size of sample should be a
tablespoonful for small seeds, such
as clover and grasses and have table
spoonfuls of the larger seeds, such as
the grains.
3. All samples should be marked
with the name and address of sender.
4. A letter should accompany sample
stating whether the seed is to be test
ed for purity, for termination, or for
both, and the source of the seed.
5. All samples and letters should
be addressed to the Seed-Testing
Laboratory, Oregon Agricultural Col
lege, Corvallis, Oregon.
All agricultural seeds should be
tested before they are purchased, or
in any case, before they are used
not only small seeds but grains of
doubtful quality, as well. Farmers
and seedsmen both, are urged to make
the fullest use of this laboratory, and
raise the standard of the seed used
upon the farms.
