Back from a Trip to California

Mr.. I. w. jenkins arrived in Jules
burg last week after having made a
visit to various points in California,
and great deal of his trip, if put on
paper would sound like a fairy story to
us who live in a section of the country
where we are blessed with all of the
necessities, if not the-iuXuries of life
Mr.. jenkins first visit was made to
Blythe City, about forty miles north of
the Imperial valley ia southern Califor-
MIA. This town is about 4j miles from
the Santa Fe railroad, and 63 miles
from the Southern Pacific railroad,
and he made the trip overland from the
Santa Fe with freighters, taking two
days to make the journey over mount
aims and through sand and dust that
was almost unbearable, sleeping two
night under the mesquite bushes and
on the sand. Blythe City is a desert
town where white man can hardly
exist from June until September on
account Of malaria. heat and little
insectsthat sing and sting you all night.
The town is in valley about 10 miles
wide and 20 miles long. It's nearest
railroad in As miles, and Tom says
this is 4 good place to hide if your
conscience troubles you" There is no
water between Blythe and the railroads
except what is hauled by the freighters
in barrels and left at stations six miles
apart. This water is for drinking
purposes only. and a man must provide
water for his animals outside of these
stations, and he says that chow the
freighters live year after year wnere
they are always covered with dust and
sand is beyond him; that you neverssee
a man in that country without a canteen
of water on his bnrro, or on his shoulder
for without it means certain death.
From Blythe he took the aato stage to
Glomas on the southern Pacific. then
by rail to Los Angeles, where he stayed
five days; thence to San Francisco for
two days stop. after which he re turned
to the best country on earth, I Colorado.
He had a very interesting trip, full
of new experiences, but after having
these experiences. he is satisfied that
Colorado and Sedgwick County is good
enough for him.

To Beet Growers

THE GREAT WESTERN SUGAR
COMPANY ADOPTS SLIDING
SCALE FOR THE JULESBuRG
DISTRICT.
The beet growers of the Juiesburg
district will welcome with pleasure the
announcement that the Great western
Sugar Company have adopted the slid
ing scale tor this district. The qucs-
ton of the price of beets has agitated
the farmer and caused the Sugar
Company great deal of worry and
thought, and we see no reason now
why both paroles should not be entirely
satisfied We give herewith the scale
as adopted by the Company.
Reets showing II to IA per cent. $500
per tor.
Beets showing Ia to l4a per cent.
$5.12l per ton.
Beets showing l4A to 10 per cent, s.. %
per ton.
Reets showing 10 to l5l per cent So 80
per ton.
Beet showing I53 to l6 per tent s.. .62a
per ton.
and for each one-Laif per cent gain
above l6 per cent, an additional l2a
per ton will be paid. The Company,
in addition to the above prices will
nav 70 cents per ton for sliced bccts,
with the distinct understanding that the
..silo' clause will be strictly enforced.
The farmers will notice that these
prices are decidedly in advance of the
flat rate of 50 90 per ton, for instance
this year bects averaging Is to 15a per
cent were paid a flat rate of Zoe,
while under the new schedule these
same beets will bring $3.50, and beets
testing III per cent will bring Sc. 90 per
ton. These prices, in addition to the
fact that beet seed does not have to
be paid for until the crop is harvested
and the fact the Great Western Sugar
Company will sell beet growers for
next year alfalfa meal at cost and
carry them until beet harvest ought TO
mean a large increase of acreage for
the coming year. With the sliding
scale in effect the farmers ought to
"eaize the necessity OF building up
their beet ground, and this can be done
in no better way than by seeding al
faIfa; and with plenty Of water in sight
we are sure our farmers will see fit to
-.
spring to alfalfa.

The local freight. east bound, on

the cause of the wreck was the break

NO PLACE LIKE YAKIMA
Such Is Opinion of ID. Il. Druse After
Winter in California

D. L. Druse and wife returned Fri
day from Long Beach, california,
where they have been spending the
winter with the Yakima colony of
tourists. They have had a delightful
time but are nevertheless glad to
get home, "for," said Mr.. Druse,
latter all IS said there is no place
like the Yakima country. Take the
tourists out of California and there
would be little to attract business OF
any sort. All Improvements are de-
signed with a view to making it more
attractive to tourists and separating
them from their coin. There was at
one time about 40 Yakimans at the
beach, some of whom are already
back and the others will come along
s,on."

contract has geen adopted under which
the growers who have signed up with
the association may withdraw at a
stated period in any year. 1t is the
belief of those most closely connected
with the association that they three
year contract is an excellent thing but
it has met with some disapproval.
Therefore, and yielding to the desires
of the growers, who are the control
ling factor, the change has been made.
This Is vital matter as it brings up
the only one objection which has been
raised in any quarter to the plans as
adopted previously.
Desire to Meet Growers
The entire effort has been to con-
form with the wishes Of those most
directly Interested as expressed in var
ious places including the walla Walla
meeting at which the central selling
agency was promoted. This has been
done, while there has been kept in
mind that at all times the matter of
harmonizing with the California Fruit
Growers association after which the
Yakima association was patterned, the
California body being the most sue

North Coast Celebration i'm North
Yakima.

The opening of regular service on
the North Coast railroad marks an
important epoch in the history of
railroad construction in the state of
Washington.
The new road, of which only the
hundred miles from Alfalfa to North
Yakima are now open for actual
operation, owes it's original concep-
ton and final completion to the will,
energy and progressiveness of Robert
E. Strahorn of Spokane.
among railroad men it is general
ly conceded that though Mr.. Stra-
horn came into the Washington field
later than the Hill lines, and was
consequently forced to have second
choice of routes where they had had
first, that he not only mapped out a
line from Spokane to Portland short
err by several miles than any other
route, but so engineered construction
that the original cost was and fixed
charges per mile will be less than
that of any other road between the
two cities.
Work is now being rushed on the
line from Spokane to Ayr which will
form the final and connecting link of
this short route to Portland, and in
a comparatively short time the Off
Gals of the North Coast expect that
actual operations of trains from Spo-
kane to Portland will begin, similar
to the service now opening between
Walla Walla and North Yakima
1t was the original plan of Mr..
Strahorn to have line from Spo-
kane to Lewiston and from North
Yakima to Seattle, and although the
absorption of the North Coast by the
Hartman system is said to have de-
layed progress on these branches
somewhat, the success Of the Stra-
horn plan thus far leads to the gen.
eral belief that it will be carried out
by the controlling company to
final completion. - Spokesman
view.

it's practicability is not readily dis
cernable.
The fact that these tools are all
interchangeable and all adapted to
one set of handles makes it possible
to secure extra parts in case any are
broken or lost. The tools are made
of steel, ground and polished and the
kit put up in a neat oak box, the
whole thing weighing but three
pounds. Mr.. Bowen, who is the gen.
eral sales agent for eastern Washing
ton, reports an enormous demand fol
these kits and that they make friends
wherever introduced.
