''rnever saw such wheat in my life, y
in this statement, Hon. George Har-
court, deputy minister of agriculture
for Alberta, and chairman of the board
of governors of the International Dry
Farming congress, summed up his
impression of the Palouse country last
evening, after an automobile trip
through the district tributary to Mos
COW.
Mr. Harcourt comes from the heart
of the Canadian wheat country, and
is an expert in his judgment of that
crop, but the Palouse country at this
time was a complete revelation to him.
The grain in it's stand and promised
yield was superior to anything he be-
lieved possible
While in Moscow Mr.. Harcourt was

couldn't. The mascot and her clever
antics were cheered by tens of thou
sands along the route of the parade.
The Moscow-Idaho band was an
other feature of the Idaho section of
the parade. The band of 35 pieces was
one of the best in the entire line and
won hearty applause throughout the
line of march. The band was headed
by F. S. Ratliff, a member of Moscow
lodge, as drum major, and although

about $50 pounds he was as light on
his feet as Maud herself, and made
an admirable drum major, and one
who attracted much attention.
The Elks' reunion parade was the
big event of the convention today and
fully $4,000 Elks were in line. Many
bands were enthusiastically cheered.
Grand lodge has appropriated $780,

mob of 1000 enthusiastic admirers
Maud" the mascot mule of the Ida

and taken to the Imperial suite of the
Mulnomah.
In blissful ignorance of her fashion

NAL reception. Hundreds of men and
women called to pay their homage
After trying to eat the lace curtains
in the room, she was led into the cafe
and given a pail of beer. Then she
marched out into the streets again, fol-
lowed all the while by fun-crazed,
laughing mob.
Maud has proved to be one of the
best cards of the convention. She has
captivated the town. She will he in

The largest crowd which ever view

plies to the recent bitter editorial at
tack Of Colonel Henry Watterson on
Colonel Bryan. The Commoner says
in part:
"Mr. Bryan confesses he has not
tried to please Colonel Watterson
which may account for any popularity
which Mr.. Bryan may enjoy. He con-
fesses he did not consult Watterson

NAVY IN NEED OF
BETTER SWIMMERS

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Numerous
drownings of naval officers during the
last few years, has led the navy de-
partment to adopt new plan for In
creasing the swimming ability of its
men. A new form for reports on
ship inspection has just been issued
with space for report on the per-
centage of officers and crew who are
able to swim five minutes without ex-
haustion, and how many are able to
swim completely around the ship
without evidence of fatigue.
Swimming has long been included in
the curriculum at the Annapolis Nav
al Academy, and great pains are ta-
ken to make the young officers at
home in the water. But the suspicion
has been growing lately that few offic-
ers keep in practice. This led the
academy authorities recently to re-
quire higher standard of efficiency
in swimming tests of graduates, so
high in fact, that last month several
midshipmen were refused diplomas be-
cause they failed to meet tho tests.
1t is now proposed to make the swim
ming standard even higher, and to re-
quire officers at sea to keep in prac-
tice. AS yet no specific orders to this
end have been issued, but it is hoped
by the navy department that ships
pride will stimulate officers and men
to greater aquatic exercise, In order
to prevent any bad entry in the In
spection reports.
Another innovation in the inspection
report hits at ships where officers and
men, in their anxiety to lead in the
maintenance allowance" competition
"a race to see which ship can make a
record for cheap maintenance-have
permitted the vessels fittings or equip
ment to deteriorate, rather than have
their economy record marred by ex-
pensive repairs The new inspection
forms require a report by the in
specting officer whether repairs have
been "unduly spared to the detriment
of the vessels serviceability.
