BRITISH MONEY
FOR HIGH LINE
Syndicate Offers to Loan Twenty.
Six Million if Its Engineer
Approves Project

Negotiations are pending with an
English syndicate, according to H b.
Scudder. or the Valleys of the Yaki-
ma Water Users association. for the
money-$26, 600. O00-which win be
needed for the construction of the
proposed high line ditch. An English
syndicate, according to Mr.. Scudder,
has offered to loan the entire amount
and the proposal is to be put before
the trustees of the association to as
certain whether it is acceptable. On
September 8 Secretary of the Inter
Tor Fisher. in North Yakima. told
the trustees of the Valleys of the Yak
ina Water Users association that he
would give them sixty days in which
to raise the money necessary for the
work il is figured will take some $26.-
100000. As thirty days remain in
which to meet the conditions of Mr.
Fisher and as that time is not suffi-
cient to enable the engineer of the
loaning syndicate to make an eXamin-
alton, there may yet be a hitch. Mr.
Fisher, however, merely asked for a
showing on the financial end within
sixty days and it was evident that on
good showing he would meet the
trustees half way. Mr. Scudder has
called the trustees together to con-
slider the various phases Of the prop
ositon and to report 10 the secretary
al as early date as possible

GOOD NEWS FOR
HOP GROWERS
Production Is So Far Below the
Average That Values Are In
creasing Rapidly

Hop men of the Yakima valley viii
be deeply interested in statistics OF
the crop issued from Washington, d
c., and which show that the totaI
will be 100000 pounds below the
yield of 1910 and fifty-five million
pounds below the average for the
past ten years. This is according to
advices received from abroad by the
government crop statistician. Ac-
cording to Consul Joseph L" Brit
tain of Prague, Bohemia the total
product of the world this year will
hardly reach 1872. 100000 pounds and
he says hops have already sold as
high as 80 cents a pound.
In his report to this government
Consul Britain says
lowing to the unusual dryness that
has lasted for more than two months
the hop harvest will be very small
this year Not only has the weather
been extremely dry, but the mercury
has registered as high as 12O de-
grees in the sun, which is very un-
usual for Bohemia.
within the past few weeks the
stock of old hops on hand has ad-
vanced as much as 200 per cent in
Sice. owing partly to the fact that
an unusual amount of beer has been
sold during the hot weather, the
stock of some brewers having been
entirely exhausted"
Some English Advice
Speaking of the hop situation in
England the London Financial Times
says among other things:
For some years the average prices
for hops have been so unremunera-
continue to grow hops and the po-
sition predicted has arrived, in which
the supply is considerably below the
demand and consumers have to face
the unique fact that the worlds
stock is practically exhausted, with
about half a years yield, and a ire
mendous risk in the future of a still
further shortage. The Continental
crop is also not equal to its require
ments, and their buyers are operat-
ing on the English market: already
they have cleared off nearly all the
old hops that remained, and so strin-
gent is their position that their
prices have nearly trebled since they
started contracting for 1911 hops so
it is clearly the best policy of brew
ers not to hesitate, but secure as
many as they can TO tide them over
a difficult situation. Messrs Manager
and Henley estimate the English
yield will prove to be about 1927. 900
of liz pounds on.
say, $4,000 acres rather more than
half the annual consumption, which
is still increasing, the trade of the
country being good, The aspect gem
orally shows that growers should be
in position that ought to recon-
pense them to some extent for the
heavy losses made in several recent
years"

but that her graphophone be substi-

loved best.
When the family and friends had
assembled at the bier the graphic
phone was brought in, and just be-
fore the minister began his discourse
Abide With Me, Nearer My God,

lions were played. This is the first
