The Canadian reciprocity fight is
still going on in the Congress with
varying success. President Taft is
firm in his stand for the reciprocity
measure as passed by the House. The
Senate is divided on the question,
and no man knows what will happen.
Some of the leading Republicans are
bitterly opposed to President Taft,
while some of the leading Democrats
are standing with the president. For
once the agricultural interests of the
country have the politicians at Wash
ington badly guessing. The National
Grange, representing portion of the
farmers, is demanding that the
measure be defeated, while the farmers
themselves are badly divided on the
question. The Grange slogan has
been tariff for one, tariff for all. :"
This is good slogan. But we believe

According to the Spokesman RI

According to the Spokesman Re-
view, the worlds record for Holsteins
now belongs to a Washington man,
Mr.. Monroe, of Spokane. This is
Jessie tobes Bessie Homestead, and
it is claimed that she produced in a
seven day test 1895 pounds of butter.
This wonderful record was made
under the supervision of the state
college of Washington. On page one,
we publish picture of Pontiac
Clothide De Kolk, Second, belonging
to Stevens Bros, OF Liverpool, New
York, with a record OF "a. 70 pounds
of butter in seven days. This was
claimed to be the world record dairy

correct, the Washington cow holds

culture should keep these Year Books,
as they are issued annually, in a con-
spicuous place in their libraries.
Since the first of.the year The Ranch
has sent to its readers nearly 500
copies of the 1908 and 1909 Year Books
and The Report of the Bureau of
Animal Industry. These we're fur
nished US through the kindness of
Senator Jones and Representative
Humphrey of this state. We already
have made request for good supply
of the 1910 books. When these will
be ready for delivery is not known,
but it will probably not be for some
months.

Grain Inspector Hoist, who was in
Seattle last week said, "Wheat crops
prospects in the state of Washington
are so per cent better than they were
at this time last year." This is
certainly good news to the wheat
growers, and if no unfavorable weather
is experienced bumper" crop will
be grown this year.

G. e. Flint, horticultural inspector
for District No. l, Bellingham, writes
The Ranch that fruit prospects are
very bright in most lines in his field.
Winter apples are little shy, but
such apples as Gravensteins, Glowing
Coal and King promise good crops.
He says that cherries and pears will
be an average crop and that the berries
we're unhurt by the frost.

The Grange and Cooperation.

The Washington State Grange meets
in it's regular session at Snohomish,
beginning next Tuesday, June 9th.
1t is sincerely hoped that every Grange
in the state will be represented at
that meeting. There is some serious
and necessary work to be done. From
circulars which have been sent
throughout the state there is every
evidence that there is going to be a
fight against the cooperative move
ment as endorsed at the last meeting
of the Grange, which has been oper-
ated in small way during the past
year.
The Ranch is firm believer in
farmers cooperation and hopes this
matter will be thoroughly thrashed
out by men who have no personal axes
to grind, nor political measures to
boost at the state meeting.
If the farmer could be taught to CO.
operate with his neighbor in the SELL
ing of his products it would be the
greatest advance he could possibly
make. Theeco-operative system has
been so successful in many districts
that it's success is no longer disputed
by those who are we'll informed.
The grape growers OF Michigan we're
practically bankrupt until they organ
lied cooperative selling agency.
The same is true of California citrus
fruit growers who now handle thous-
ands of cars of their product through
cooperative selling agencies. When
they began they were practically
bankrupt. There was no market and
no prices for what was raised. The
same story is true of the grape growers
of New York and the potato growers
of Maine.
The wheat growing industry of
Eastern Washington and Oregon has
been placed on a paying basis through
a cooperative, known as the Farmers
Union. Western Washington has a
splendid example in the Puyallup and
Sumner Berry Growers Association.
This started few years ago with no
capital, few discouraged growers,

one. The capitalization is given as

Before evening II is believed that
the Tulsa motion picture show men
who are circulating petitions for the
refereedum of the Sunday closing
ordinance passed Wednesday by the
city commission, will have the re-
quired $50 signers.
The picture sliow men went to
work yesterday With vim, and II
was not long until the ltts had
grown to great magnitude. Accord
ing to reports from the showmen, at
least 450 signers We're secured yester-
day.
Some OF the showmen say that they
made no special effort to get the
names which appear on their lists
They report that they have met with
very few refusals. Both those who
are for and against Sunday closing
are signing, oil seemingly anxious to
have the publ!e decide the case.
As en- index to the eagerness of the
people to sign the petition, Carl Gregg
connected with one of the shows,
claims to have secured 1O9 signers in
an hour last evening.
The picture show men intend to
get sufficient slgners for the petitions
today, in order that the commission
can take steps this afternoon towards
The referendum of the ordinance. If
the commission takes such move this
afternoon, picture shows will be run

CARTER OF MONTANA.
Senatorial Deadlock Broken at Elev

Helena. Mont-A senatorial dead
lock which began with the opening of
the Montana legislative assembly was
broken in its closing hours on Thurs
day by the selection of Henry L. My
ers, a prominent lawyer, as successor
to Thomas NJ. Carter.
The man so honoreu was a dark
horse of the most sable shade. Not
once in the long series of ballots
where complimentary votes we're as
free as air had his name been men

divided between T. J. Walsh and w.

leaving one senatorial toga In the
state house closet, when Republican
lnsurgent, Higgins by name, picked
the deadlock. 1t was his vote that
caused one more ballot to be taken
the fateful ballot that elevated a dis
trict Judge to seat in the senate and
added one vote to the Democratic
strength in congress.

8, 1862, at Boonville, Mo-, and came
to Montana in 1893. Mr.. Myers was

TO PATROL BORDER
SOLDIERS BEING HURRIED TO

EQUIPPED FOR WAR.
Mystery Envelops Rushing of United

and West to Mexican Line With
Machine Guns.

Salt Lake City.-Coincident with
the peremptory order for the sending
of the entire Fifteenth infantry from
Fort Douglas to Fort Sam Houston.
San Antonio, Tex, near the Mexican
border, the wires Monday night carried
the news that similar orders had been
issued to the Thirtieth infantry, sta
toned at the Preside, San Francisco,
and the Eighth infantry, stationed at
Monterey, comprising twenty-five COM
panies with four platoons of machine
guns, had been ordered to San Diego,
en- route to the Mexican border.
Then dispatch from Prescott, Ariz,
told of the ordering to Fort Sam Hous.
ton without delay of the garrison at
Fort Whipple. consisting of two COM
panies Of infantry, hospital corps
and a machine gun platoon. An hour
later came a message from Atlanta,
Ca. that the Seventh infantry at Fort
Mcpherson and the Eleventh cavalry
at Fort Oglethorpe had been ordered
to proceed at once to San Antonio fot
service along the border. This order
also called for the mobilization of a
provisional regiment of twelve COM
panies of coast artillery to be recruited
from various stations and to be sens
as soon as possible to Galveston.
Much mystery surrounds s1is sud-
den and entirely unheralded action on
the part of the war department, but 1t
is clear that at least 5000 fully
equipped troops, comprising cavalry.
infantry and artillery. accoutered as
IL for actual war, are to be strung
along the Mexican border from the
