MARKET FLOUR IN EUROPE

The millers of the Pacific North
west are planning to develop a de-
demand for their products in
Europe, in order to get ready for
the trade possibilities that will fol-
low the opening of the Panama
canal. At their last meeting in
Tacoma, it was proposed by o. D.
Fisher of the Fisher FIGURING Mills
Company of Seattle, that uniform
brand of -four be adopted by all the
mills for the European trade; this
is to be advertised extensively and
introduced abroad with the cooper
alton of the steamship companies.
For the time being, the mill pro-
ducts are to be sold at cost, in Or
der to build for the future, depend
ing on that time to bring the profit.
Some years ago the millers OF Kan
sas worked out similar plan sue
cessfully. Its purpose was to ex-
plot Kansas -four rather than the
product of any particular mill. Mr..
Fishers proposal was enthusiastic
cally received and the details are
now being worked out. Since wheat
is one of the largest initial products
of the Northwest, this project means
much to the section. Europe con-
sumes high-grade flour. If it can
be ground here and shipped abroad
as -four, instead of exported as
wheat, it will lead to substantial in
creases in Northwest payrolls.

TAX FIGURES

According to the State Tax Com
missioner's latest report, the per
capita tax in the State of Washing
ton amounts to 1857. The varia-
ton from this average shows Kit
sap county to be the lowest with
$11.52 per person and Clallam
county the highest with $3S.68 per
person. The total amount of taxes
levied in Washington last year
amounted to $27 ,OS3, 1854. The
assessed valuation of all property in
the state amounted to S9O6, 247. 944
which cut up would give each per-
son property valued at $793.57.
On the basis of actual value, each
PERSONS share would amount to
2,O64.3S.

THE WAY YOU ARE PASSED ON
Four months ago Jones, hard
working citizen of New York, signed
a postal card asking for informa-
ton about the Fortune Colony, a
promoters device for selling stock
to the public. Jones did not join
the Colony. Three months ago,
without further action, he was
called upon by an agent of the Rec
tor Gas Lighting Company with Sc
curities to sell. A month ago Jones
received the first batch of Literature
from the World Home Supply Com
pany, also with stock to sell. Com
ing back from his Fourth of July
trip to the country, Jones found a
letter from the Moisant Information
al Aviators offering stock at bar

THE MONEY MAKERS

We are in receipt of copy of a
very interesting and valuable "a
page booklet sent out by the O.-W
R. & N. Co., entitled "The Money
Makers-Swine Raising in the Pa
cifc Northwest. It is compila-
ton by D. O. Lively of Portland .,
of practical information and ideas
contributed by successful swine
breeders as well as agricultural ex-
perts, and goes into every phase OF
the business. In the conclusion of
the booklet the writer says:
1t is poor business to be send
ing millions out of the Pacific
Northwest each year for hogs and
hog products. They can be pro-
duced just as cheaply at home and
the balance of trade would be in
our favor.
Don't take any stock in the
fellow who tells you there is no
money in raising hogs in this section
of the country. It is the most pro-
fitable business a farmer can engage
in. Hogs have paid off the mortga-
ges on farms and produced the
greater part of the wealth in the
agricultural sections of the Middle
States.
Hogs can be marketed any bust
ness day in the year. They can be
prepared for the market at any
season of the year. In this they
have the advantage over fruit crops
or grain crops, which must be mar
keted at. harvest time. If the mar
ket does not strike your fancy they
can be made more valuable by hold
ing over, but, as a rule, it is good
idea to ship hogs to the market
when they reach the most profitable
weight.
Marketing animals off the farm
is the chief source of income for the
American farmer, and hogs lead
very far in point of value.'
The secretary Of the Commercial
Club has a supply of the booklets
at his Office and would doubtless
be glad to furnish a copy to those
who are interested enough to call for

OUR RAILROADS
MOST ECONOMICAL


A well-known English railway
economist, Mr.. w. NJ. Acworth,
after extended studies in this coun-
try declares American railways the
most efficient in the world. The
continued newspaper criticism of
our railways was great surprise to
him. His review in part, follows:
1t has always been my opinion
that in actual economy of operation
the railways of the United States
are first in the world. In the OBJ
tanning of the greatest measure OF
results for each unit of expenditure,
they are not equalled by the rail-
ways of any other nation. He
points out further that in other de-
partments Americans are not pre-
eminently efficient; the American
farmer does not get as much out OF
his land as the French and English
farmer; the American government
is not as efficient as the Prussian
government. Hence, Mr.. Acworth
concludes that American railways
have reached a higher standard in
international comparison than our
other enterprises and activities.

POSTAL BANKS GROW

The postal banks prove such a
success and meet such public want
that the Postmaster General has to
add a hundred to the number every
month. 1t is the parcels post, how
ever, that the people are now most
crying for. And the postal deficit
is now wiped out and $1,000, 900
appropriated for deficit has been
returned to the Treasury.

LAJOIE MORE QUIET
 THAN IN OLD DAYS
Cleveland Slugger Used to Bait Umpires in His
 Youth

Nan Lajoie was sent out of the game in the Cleveland-Detroit series last week for the first time In long time. l The Frenchman does not give the unnpires much trouble, says the Detroit News.
 There was a time, however, when the eviction laws of baseball were or ten brought into force to send Larry to the bench or to the clubhouse. This was when he first came to Cleveland. when youths young blood ran riot and there fingered in his mind the memory iof those Savage old days at Philadelphia
 The umpire was a very unimportant adjunct to the game when LaJo1e be- gan playing with the old Philadelphia National League team. It was common thing for a player of Lajoies importance to interrupt game at any time from five to ten minutes while he was making known to the public his personal estimate of the umpire
 Soon after Lajoie joined the Cleve- land team in 1902, Ban Johnson issued his famous edict against umpire-bait- ing. The Maps were in Boston at the time and as they tumbled into their carriages preliminary to the trip to the Huntington Avenue grounds. La 5oie broke forth into torrent of abuse Of the driver of his carriage.
 The man on the box-an old friend of the Frenchman's-turned around in amazement.
 Whats the matter. Larry?" he ask ed "Ain't always treated you right?"
 .sSure you have" was Maps reply.
 asWell," said Larry, we ain't allow ed to talk to the umpires any more. I've got to explode to somebody"
 Baseball fans agree that Larry has done but very little exploding in the past six or seven years. Certain Phil- adelphia critics used to claim that the umpires eficiating in that city had their hardest times when the Allan tic City season was at it's height. It was their contention that Larry would frequently kick himself out Of the earne in order to get holiday on the famous board walk. This, however, was never proved.

GYROSCOPE THAT
 : PREVENTS SKIDDING

Robert w. Beare has an article in the Daily Graphic, of London, de- scribing a new gyroscope. By mount ing an enlarged and modified form of spinning top at the front of an auto- mobile chassis and providing means for driving it directly from the motor "a British inventor has evolved a de- vice which he is absolutely confident will overcome all the evils of skid ding.
 The Rutt gyroscope is mounted in line with the crank shaft of the motor, or on an axis parallel with the crank shaft, as the case may be, and there fore is inert with respect to any cap sizing tendency in the vehicle. It is sensitive to any force which may tend to cause a displacement of it's axis, however, whence arise the hopes of the inventor that it may prove suc- cessful in preventing side-slip.
 The gyroscope wheel which is of solid steel. is mounted in front of the radiator of a car on an extension of +h- ~--rL -h~h4 rFuaA u1haal ts four-

teen inches in diameter.

teen inches III diameter. What the practical man probably would like to know in connection with
 the application of such a device is as to whether its use would tend to ren-
 der the car sluggish in responding to
 steering. A very large gyroscope for example, might prove so effective as
 to prevent the machine from being diverted from the straight line under any conditions whatsoever The weight of the ring or wheel obviously is insufficient to have such an effect, but at the same time it is open to argument whether even a light wheel might not cause the machine to be somewhat hard to steer, particularly in endeavoring to take sharp turns at fairly high rates of speed The act ual divergence of the vehicle on curves is slight as compared to that occa- stoned by violent skid.
 A few days ago a demonstration was given. The demonstration consisted of driving cars, both with and without the device, at fair speed over a thick patch of a mixture of Thames mpd and soft soap. In the middle of this greasy mess the brakes were applied with sufficient force to lock the wheels, and it was shown beyond dispute that while an ordinary car with plain rub hAr tiras worlld slow around. another

vehicle fitted with the gyroscope ar- paratus would hold on steady course without the slightest deviation rom the line set by the steering wheels
 No demonstration,' says MT. Beare. could have been more successful. ai- uhough the question arose as to the liability of the gyroscope to damp the engine when quick acceleration YVES necessary. the effect upon the steef- Ing of the vehicle, and the possibility of undue strain being thrown upoh the frame of the car when the force Of the gyroscope came into opposition with the tendency to skid It may De that the latter point Is trivial but the fact that sufficient force is ex- erted to hold, say, "a two-ton car t3 It's course against a powerful pull f1 the opposite direction certainly seerns to argue that the frame is called up- on to withhold a strain which wa9 not taken into account in it's design ing.
 Since motor car is necessarily constructed with a vct. wide margin of strength, however. 1t is probable that the strength of the average frama is ample to bear the strain of thiG gyroscopic action"

noon came sunshine.
 Crossing the bridge after passing through Hartford the first car of part of Springfield enthusiasts was picked up and further on at Enfield, Conn.,, dozen cars filled with mem- bers of the Springfield Automobile club were parked at the road side to welcome the trail blazers incidentally views taken. Then on to Springfield and a surprise It seems that MT. I. H. Page, President of the Stevens Duryea Company was in the party of welcoming club members and in the name of the Company had given cer- tain instructions to the Kimball hotel, and as a result the whole party where entertained at a perfect luncheon. That was at 1 D. m. At about 2:30 the Path Finders drove east toward Boston and made a remarkably speedy trip and reached the Somerset House, Boston, at about o'clock.

GLIDDEN TOUR
 PATH FINDERS
Charles Glidden and a Host of Notables Meet the
 Pilgrims at Boston

The Glidden Scouts of the Stevens Duryea pilot car met royal recep- ton in Boston; Charles J. Glidden, do- nor of the trophy entertained them at dinner; and Mayor Fitzgerald pre- sented them with keys of the City of Boston and intrusted to their keepings a friendly message to the Mayor of Ottawa. The dinner took place Thurs day evening at Hotel Somerset; and the Mayor received his party Friday noon on the steps of the City Hall and later accompanied them in the gen. eral direction of Ottawa as far as the State House, where the camera squad again got into action and goodbyes were said and waved as the Stevens Duryear Pathfinder silently respond ed to Luther Young's gentle touch, and the scouts glided off toward Can- ada.
 The Glidden trail so far laid out by the Path Finders in the Stevens 6 began at the Hotel Grafton, Washing ton, D. O., Monday morning, the 24th, and passed through the District of Columbia into Maryland at Contee; through the Hamlet of Laurel into Baltimore to Harve De Grass, Will mington and into Pennsylvania to the Corinthian Yacht club only a few miles outside of Philadelphia, where the first nights stop was made.
 The next morning after a brief so- journ in Philadelphia they preceded to Lakewood and Hp through the Jer- sey coast resorts to Sea Bright, where finding a hotel that looked quiet they paused prefering a peaceful sleep to the White Lights of Broadway.
 Wednesday morning they pushed on through Elizabeth, Newark, Weehauk- en and over And street ferry to Man haitian; business affairs of the tour obliged them to spend a few hours in New York but they left about and proceeded along the Shore line to Bridgeport and then up to Waterbury, which they reached in time for an o'clock dinner. This nights stop used by the Path Finders will not be used in the tour itself, it is said.

THE WEATHER.

Thursday morning dawned as per schedule with brilliant sunshine, and right here is worth while to state that up to the present writing (Saturday morning the 29th,) from Monday of the actual Path Finding has been done under the most favorable weather conditions. There surely must be one weather lucky man in the party for up to the very day of the start at Washington, Old Jupiter Pluvius has shown every intention to make the log makers and the A. A. A. officials ride under the raised top of their Stevens Duryea 6. Perhaps "The Prince'-the genial and deftly artistic photographer Nathan Lazarnick to be more exact, --is the, bringer of the weather luck. He was the last of the party to ar rive in Washington at the foregath- ering for the official start Surely Luther Young who handles the wheel on the Pilot car did not demonstrate any remarkable power to influence favorable skies, for when he left the factory at Chicopee, Falls, Mass, to run Model A Stevens-Duryea 6 to Washington to deliver it to the Tour- ing Information Bureau of the A.

I'm view of the foregoing facts, Il
surely must be that the president ir
his zeal to reform the broken lines Of

were entitled to a square deal when
he uttered this monstrous and prepos
ferrous sentence:
Calls Taft Statement Reckless.
"'The bills bear internal evidence
Of the fact that they rested on basis
of not tariff for revenue only, but
tariff for politics only
Really, I do not see how he could
find it in his heart to utter the fore
going words which there is no basis OF
fact for in the universe.
Never in the history of the gov
eminent l venture to say, have inn.
pcrtant public interests been dealt
with in such light-hearted way with
such absolute ignorance of the effect
of legislation and with such willing
ness to sacrifice business interests
to political exigencies.'
THAT is as reckless and unfair a
statement as has been put into print
since Gutenberg invented movable
type, and is a personal reflection on
the sense, honesty, integrity and pa
triotism of every man, democratic or
republican, who voted for these bills.
AS such, / resent them not for myself
