The message impaired to the 10
cal municipal commission yesterday
afternoon by Rev. F. Z. Shut and
Rev. w. G. Oglevee, a committee
representing the Ministerial Ali

Attorney l.. NJ. Magill The sugges-
ton was made that the states at
torney unite with the new commits
sioners in securing a strict enforce
ment of the Sunday closing of sa-
looms in accordance with the state
law. The ministers did not presume
to dictate to the states attorney.
They merely stated that the alliance
was heartily in favor of such en-
forcement of the law and that its
members could be depended upon to
back the city and county officials in
any attempts they made towards the
closing of saloons. The states at
torney made no definite reply.

THROWN IN A RACE
AND INJURIES BRAIN
Ava Boynton, Formerly Of This
City, Is Victim of Riding
Accident at Ontario

Alva Boynton, formerly of North
Yakima and who is very we'll known
here as trainer and rider Of run
ming horses, having conditioned his
string in this town number of times,
was seriously injured at Ontario, Ore,
few days ago and for time his
life was despaired Of Latest letters
indicate that he has improved some
what but 1t not fentally in a normal
condition. Writing to S. e. Farris of
this city a near relative of Mr.. Boyn-
ton related that in riding a race at
Ontario his horse had been crowded
at a turn and had gone down the field
riding over Roynton who was thrown.
1t was thought, when he was picked
up, that he was dead but later it was
found that he had escaped serious
physical injury except for a blow
which had affected his brain. A later
letter from his nurse told Mr.. Farris
that Mr.. Boynton was almost certain
to recover so far as the physical In
juries were concerned but his mind
remained clouded. He had been TAX
en- to the home of his father at Vale,
Ore, and his horses had gone along to
Boise.

BAl|NG HAY
50 COULDN'T DANCE
Farm Duties on Reservation Kept
Many From Taking Part in
State Fair Performance

1t was matter for comment at the
recent state fair that the Indian
dancing, which is always one of the
most popular features, was not quite
up to the standard this year. The
Indians are excellent business people
in that they aim never to give more
than the moneys worth. No one
ever heard of an Indian encore and
as a rule the beating of the drum
the circling of the squaws and the
hopping of the warriors continue
only long enough to fill the terms OF
the contract
Good to Look At
But while there is nothing very fe-
rocious about their presentation of a
war dance before state fair audiences
Their is always a combination of color
worth looking at land to strangrs, the
mere presence of the aboriginee is
a novel and diverting experience.
The squaw races, which are al
ways good fun, We're something of a
farce on several days. Once, it was
reported, the squaw in the lead grew
lonesome and aMbled back to the
following field, turning her pony
when she reached them and riding
on in pleasant conversation. When
the Seattle business men, on their
excursion here, however, put up a
purse of $50, it was the real thing in
Indian ladies' race. Each bright
shawled rider hustled her pony to
the limit and the prize winner de-
noted her happiness by a wide smile.
Has to Stay Home
The reason the Indian performance
this year was not quite SO good as
usual is that the important Indians
were so busy harvesting their hay
crop. that they couldn't get up to the
fair. Much as they like to dress up
in their beads and buckskins and
get out their eagle feather war bon
nets, the Indian ranchers of the res
ervation had too sharp an eye to
business to overlook hay crop at a
good many dollars per ton. Most of
the leaders in the tribe had hay ball
ers at work on their ranches state
fair week and had to stay homo
and look after the men who were
working for them. !-te.
After all, it isn't to be expected
that men who own forty and fifty
acre hay fields, or hop fields bearing
well at this seasons prices, will per-
form antics and cut capers to make
state fair holiday.

STUDY DARYING PROBLEMS

PUYALLUP, Oct. 15.--Letters are
being sent out to dairymen of west
ern Washington by the experim entail
station to give the public an idea
of what the station Is doing to solve
the problem of dairying. The work
of the station along this line includes:
First, the bringing of the station soil
to high state Of fertility by prac-
teal means, under drainage. thorough
tillage, the saving ana use of barn
yard manure, produced on the place
and the growing OF the legumes.
Most of the station land is raw up
land, varying from poor to good and
much of it needs under drainage bad
ly. Drains are being installed where
ever needed. A dairy herd is being
established
Vetches and clover are being fall
seeded on land from which crops
have been removed this season, The
problem of bringing this new raw UNI
der drained land into a high state
of fertility represents the problem
before most of the dairymen. and
will be handled more as a demonstra-
ton than as an experiment
Study Forage Plants
study is being made of tho
growing of leading forage plants
suited to the northern climate, their
ability to produce. their adaptability
to the climate and the possibility Of
adapting them to a rational system
of feeding and dairy management In
this climate. The station Is studying
leading varieties OF northern grown
corn to determine which are most
sutabl for western Washington cli-
mate Last year over 80 varieties
were grown These were culled to
few OF the best this season. The
station Is not prepared to say wheth-
er or not the corn crop of western
Washington Will be profitable this
year The comparison Of a number
of varieties of carrots and margolds
is being undertaken. A study OF
forage yield from different combina-
tiOns of vetches and grain and at
different dates Of seeding. compar-
ison of forage and seed yield from a
number Of different varieties of field
peas, a study Of best ways TO seed
and manage the clover crop 10 Sc
cure best returns, experiments an
the best time to set out kale and
marrow cabbage, study of varieties of
grasses and the breeding OF the best
of the above classes of plants are in
cluded in the experiments.
