UNCERTAIN POTATO
IS GIVEN A HEARING

The potato Is coming in for a srea!
deal of attention these days and has
broken into the magazines as liz
subject for consideration. Even the
financial journals are considering Il
as an American institution. The
Country Gentleman in recent issue
had the following:
THE uncertain potato. This has
been a season of valuable experience
in potatoes The shortness of last
years crop has led to many changes
in the usual program. Sections that
shipped have been receiving, and tho
few productive areas have realized
the Joy of prices quite beyond prece-
dent. one result has been the impor-
tation of enormous quantities from
Europe. One ship arrived in New
six thousand tons shipped from Lon
donN Here Is the news item: Roughly
there are enough of them to supply
"a 100000 meals for an adult. AS po-
tatoes were quoted here today at
1925 per bag of 16S pounds. the ship
ment Is valued at more than $500, 900.
The government collected $4,000 In
York with record breaking cargo OF
duties a shipment to n southern
all of which were sent to the mining
regions of Pennsylvania and West
Virginia and to western points The
movement to take off the tariff or

become law

no means attractive to the amateur.
Statistics of the Crop
'fn the last ten years the total i'm
ports OF potatoes have been 22,S45,63f
bushels, and the exports 10,900,56s
bushels. We get potatoes from Cana
da Mexico. Bermuda. Scotland, Eng
land. Ireland Germany and France,
also q few from China, Australia and
the Canary islands. We send potatoes
to the West Indies, Panama and
Canada. our largest importations TO
the beginnings f the present year
were in 1909, when we had to bring in
s. 333,000 bushels Last year we eX-
ported more than any other year, the
total being 2.333,000 bushels This
years figures will be interesting and
they may make new records. New
York Is our largest potato growing
state, her crop in 1910 reaching
A, 900 bushels. as against $4,000
900 for Pennsylvania and 10000, 900
for New Jersey There is no question
as to the ability of this country To-
raise all the potatoes it needs"

PLEA FOR TETON IS
REJECTED At CAPITAL
Department of the Interior De.
clines to Defer Payment and
Tells About Speculation

There is news from Washington re-
garding the Tieton irrigation project
which will be of interest to the people
of Yakima A dispatch sent out from
Washington Friday says:
Congressman La Toilette, who In
terested himself in securing reduc-
ton In payments to the government
from settlers under the Tieton irriga-
ton project, has received the follow
ing letter from the first assistant sec
rotary of the interior which he has
forwarded to H. L. Hull of Teton.
Wash, representing the people of this
project;
L have to advise that upon careful
consideration of the entire subject the
department reached the conclusion
that no sufficient reason has been
shown for deferring the repayment to
the United States of expenditures up
on this project and thus postponing
the completion of reclamation work
elsewhere. In this connection I may
state that it appears from the reports
submitted that the difficulties under
which the people of the Tieton project
are laboring are due in part at least
to speculation and excessive prices
paid for the raw land, and TO the fact
that but small portion thereof is be-
ing actually utilized for the produc-
ton of crops. II is stated that the
project records show that more than
20 per cent of the area cultivated the
first year after water was applied
yielded satisfactory results, the area
actually irrigated producing an aver
age of more than $40 an acre
Commenting on this communica-
ton of the assistant secretary. Con-
gresham La Toilette declared that he
disagrees with the view taken and
added that ne will urge a reconsidera-
ton of the decision"

Beauty Spots in Valleys of the Yakima,
in Nearby Hills and Mountains
Places OF Local Interest Where the Pleasure Seeker Can
Find Scenery to Equal Any Sought
in Othsr Lands
in Other Lands

Getting into the open to commune
with the beauties of nature Is some
thing more than a fad; it is one of
those innate unsatisfied longings, a
lure that Is perennial and a serious
part of the real joy of living. In no
place in the world is it easier for the
lover of nature to satisfy his appre-
citation of the beautiful than In the
valleys of the Yakima and In the
nearby hills. A few hours' Journey
in any sort of conveyance will let him
into undiscovered country of whose
charm, perhaps, he has not dreamed.
There Is within easy access of this
place a wealth of scenery com prislng
near and far stretches of landscape,
table lands. valleys and streams, ma
lures beauty spots embellished and
unembellished by the artifice of man.
1t is the concensus Of opinion taken
from the people of many parts of the
United States who have settled In the
valleys of the Yakima that nowhere
in the Union Is there anything to ex-
Gel the beautiful and attractive spots
that are to be found in this vicinity.
As compared with what Is to be found
in the valleys of the Yakima and in
the nearby hills, glimpses OF the
White and Green mountains in New
England, noted haunts or the tourists.
have nothing more beautiful. Nor is
there anything in the Aleghaneys or
the Blue ridge with their timbered
uplands and their bounding streams
that may not be matched here. And

Great Divide from the Canadian
Rockies to the Mexican border and
have toured California, land of Lam

initely severed his relations
with the republican national
convention. In a statement
setting forth his position in this
regard he said that, since the
convention declined to remove
delegates who, he contends, are
fraudulent, he could not recog-
nize its authority. He urged his
