AWAKENING
OF Civic PRIDE
NOTICEABLE

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Aug. T.
Civic improvement is running at high
tide in Texas, almost every city and
town having awakened to the advan-
tages of beautiful surroundings as a
commercial factor. While the men of
the state have been active in bring
ing :~bout this movement purely from
a business standpoint, the women of
the state have taken hold of an effort
at another angle and take the posi-
ton that the children are the best
things reared in Texas, and that those
who grow to manhood and woman
hood where the surroundings = are
beautiful will make the better men
and women, other things being equal,
than those which have been accust-
omed to filthy streets and a general
happy-go-lucky appearance of the
town in which they are reared. In
almost every town women's clubs
and these are a powerful factor in
both the civic and social !!;fe Of the
Lone Star State-are taking an active
interest in the movement Tor civic
beauty. In fact no factor in this
work is more potent for the progress
of the movement than the Woman's
clubs of Texas.

the lakes and streams of eastern
Washington by the state fish hatch
cry on the Little Spokane river this

s. S. Drew, who announced today that
the plant will resume early in De-

efforts of the hatchery officials have
been largely directed to the intro

this species being we'll adapted to the
local waters. They are game and pro-
vide excellent sport, as well as highly
desirable food. Superintendent Drew
said the policy of importing Eastern
trout will be continued next season,
when it is expected to restock more
than a dozen lakes. The Spokane
Fish Protective Association has CO.

hatchery, also assisting the fish and
game wardens in enforcing the laws.
The Officers of the association were
instrumental in interesting the feder-
al government in assigning experts to

WHAT IS GOING ON

W. 4. Palmer, ASrl. EQltOr
The grain is cut, the ground is COM
pact, in many cases cracked. This
means that the soil is in an ideal con-
dition for the moisture to pass up
througha shrdlu mfwyp bgkq vbgkq
and escape into the air. This moist
ure is needed in the soil. First, to
put the soil in condition so it will
plow we'll and second, to make plant
food available for the next crop; third
to supply moisture for the next crop
and fourth, If possible, to carry some
moisture over to the second crop.
The way to save this moisture is
to loosen up the surface of the soil,
blowing would he the ideal thing but
that as a rule is out of the question.
The next best thing Is to disc the
land. Follow the binder with the disc.
This may also seem out of the ques-
ton, however, more profit will result
from working fewer acres and doing
the work more thoroughly. A good
plan in case one has too much land
to work we'll, is to SOW part to alfal-
ia and raise hay or seed on it. This
will pay even better than grain crop
and will distribute the work so that
the grain can be worked more thor
oughly.
Raising a crop is a good deal like
making bread. It has to be done at
a certain time in a certain way. The
women who would knead the dry flour
instead of the dough wouldn't get
good bread-plowing thesoil dry is
doing the same thing for the crop. To
make the bread, raise yeast is used.
Putting smut or mildew into the
dough instead of yeast would be as
sensible as to let weeds grow In the
field. The dough is set in warm
place to raise, likewise it is important
that the land be worked early in the
spring to warm it up. The dough
must be baked at a certain time, like
wise the work on the grain crop needs
to be done at a certain time. Why
Why should 'we,raisee oat cmfwyp
should the ladies take so much pains
when making bread to do everything
at the right time and in the right way
while her husband in raising wheat
does the work when he feels ready
and in the manner that seems easiest?
They would not be satisfied with the
bread made in this way.

BIG COTTON CROPS

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Aug. =
Texas this year is facing one of the
greatest cotton crops in its history,
and the output of seed Is becoming
something of a problem with the cot

three weeks the cottonseed mills of
the state will all be busy, for by
that time cotton picking will have
become general throughout the state.
At first cottonseed were used chiefly

A BREWERY SIX HUNDRED MILES
FROM CIVILIZATION

Some Of these "surprises' that are
always popping up are merely un'
usual, and q few of them humorous;
but they are all mighty interesting
and would fill a book foot thick
every twelve.month. Sometimes they
stun even the veterans of the Royal

"There's a brewery somewhere east
of the Hay river" was the report
brought in to Sergeant R. Field at the
Chipewyn station a little over q year
ago. II someone had brought In a
two-headed moose, or a live, kicking
moose with no head at all, Sergeant
Field would not have been more amaz-

incognita south of the Great Slave.
A brewery, six hundred miles from
civilization! And not only that, but
in the heart of country that even
the mapmakers have left blank!
Field made a personal investigation,
and he found a happy lot of Indians,
among whom firewater was quite as
common as 1t used to be down In
Kentucky. He found that nearly
every buck was the proprietor Of

Great Slave was one long and Joyous
spree. A strang white man had told
the secret of making firewater to the
Indians and they were manufacturing

yeast, which, when allowed to fer

months the Indians raised potatoes
for this brew, but in almost no in

feed stuff; now it is manufactured
into very valuable and wholesome
food products. 1t is pointed out by
mill men that cottonseed flour in
many instances takes the place Of
wheat flour, and that in the event of
a failure of the wheat crop the use
of this flour would become general
throughout the country. Good seed
is selling now at $12 to $19 per ton.
This price indicates the real value
there is in tie seed to the growers

fast BECOMING
THE ONLY WAY

SPOKANE, WASH, Aug. 7.-Dr
Samuel Fortier, chief of the irrigation
investigations for the United States
Department of Agriculture, who Is
making a tour of the Pacific and
Northwestern states, said in Spokane
that it is only a question of a few
years when many farms, orchards,
truck gardens and berry fields in most
of the eastern central and southern
states will be watered by artificially
supplied moisture. Continuing, Dr.
Fortier said among other things:
1.-THE growers have seen or heard
Of the successes in the irrigation dis
tricts of the west and they realize
the benefits of this form of insurance
against deficient rainfall or providing
methods to supply moisture to grow
ing crops at the proper time. This
can be regulated by employing any OF
the several systems practiced In the
Pacific slope country and elsewhere
"Just now the department is max
ing a series of experiments to deter
mine the amount Of water required
for irrigation as we'll as the best time
to apply the moisture. We have ar
ranged for practical demonstration
in one of the valleys west of Spokane,
where the work will be under the
direction of Stephen o. Jayne, irriga-
ton expert and investigator for the
Department of Agriculture.
I'VE also are encouraging wheat
and grain farmers in the semi-humid
districts of Washington to place some
of their holding under irrigation and
devote more attention to diversified
farming. This would not only permit
from three to four times as many peo-
pie to make homes on the land, but
also means larger and more profitable
crops. There is an abundant water
supply at depths ranging from S. to
100 feet and less in numerous In
stances. Besides the farmer will find
it pays to diversity and rotate his
crops"
