SKELETON IS FOUND
IN THE WIDE HOLLOW
Men Leveling Land Unearth the
Bones of One Who Was Here
in Earlier Days

The skeleton of a man was gathered
together Monday by Coroner Fred
Shaw and is now nicely disposed at
his office. 1t was found on a hillside
on the Harvey Young ranch in the
Wide Hollow, IA miles from the city.
1t is evidently the body OF man who
was duly buried there. The spot was
marked with stones. The skeleton
was three feet below the surface and
was placed with the feet toward the
west, which Coroner Shaw. who Is an
expert in such matters. says Is un-
usual, the bodies usually being in
tered with the feet toward the east.
The discovery was made by Messrs.
W. j. Davis. Harold White and ]. P.
Rush, who are leveling land for Mr..
Young.
The body was evidently that of a
young man. for the teeth were perfect,
not one being missing or broken. The
man, in life, had been large. Coroner
Shaw thinks. He might have been a
soldier who was buried half century
ago, as the location was on the old
trail from Simcoe to wenas.

FATHER CONVINCED
THAT son IS ALIVE
Theodore X. Long Says That His
Greatest Worry at Present Is
Condition Of Mrs. Long

"Our greatest worry now" said
Theodore K. Long Of Chicago, who has
been here assisting in the search for
his son, Carson Long, who mysterious
ly disappeared from this city March 6,
sis with regard to the boys mother.
The strain of the search has been very
hard on her. This was said after
traces ad been discovered at Ellens-
burg which seemed to indicate that
the young man had been there. 1t will
be remembered that his cap was
found at Pomona. The next day at
Ellensburg storekeeper there sold
-headgear to a young man who an
swered the description of Carson Long
and who said he had lost his cap.

William Carson. uncle Of the missing
man; C. w. Lockwood and President

Der company have gone to Seattle and

1t has about been decided that the
young man is alive and will put in an
appearance of his own accord when
he realizes the worry his mother Is
undergoing and the anxiety of his
friends. That is the opinion expressed
by the father Saturday, who has also
concluded from the evidences I'M
earthed that there has been no acct
dent or no tragedy, but that the son
has merely wandered off, perhaps in a
At Of sickness or mental worry. He
is particularly gratified that the
strictest search has failed to reveal
anything regarding the life of the son
that was not free and above board.

TROUT FISHING IS
NOT NOW LEGAL HERE
April Is the Breeding Month in the
Yakima Waters and Game
Needs Protection

There Is an erroneous opinion that
open. 1t is elsewhere in the state,
but not in this county. The reason
is that the law makes difference for
YaAma because it has been learned
that the spawning season, here is the
month of April and the fish need
protection that month. That April is
the spawning season and that the
protection sought is not given was
demonstrated Sunday when a fish
was taken in the Power ditch. The
fish was a half pound cut-throat
trout. ripe with eggs. which would
have been deposited in three or four
days. Had it been properly protected
it never would have been able to en-
ter the ditch.
Uses Fish as Argument
Game Warden Bryant procured the
fish and Is using it as an argument
with the many people who insist that
the law should permit fishing here in
April as it does elsewhere. 1t Is
contended that the fish might as well
be taken by hook and line as allowed
to perish in the irrigation bitches,
which is true enough. but 1t is the
hope of the game protective associa-
ton to work up such sentiment that
the bitches will be screened. 1t has
been proven possible elsewhere to
screen bitches at a very slight cost
and demonstration of different de-
vices is to be made here
Ditch Owners to Help
Various people interested in the
mana gement of the more important
of the irrigation bitches have prom
ised their cooperation in any move
ment which will seek to conserve the
fish interests of the Vicious rivers
and streams in this valley. 1t is not
disputed that thousands of fish an
nually, especially the breeding fish
are destroyed in the main or lateral
canals down which they run seeking
a breeding ground. 1t Is believed
by those who have studied the stu
alton that conservation of these fish
would be a financial benefit to the
city.

birds for the county collection. They

-- FROM THE
WIDE, WIDE WORLD
Irrigation in India

LAHORE, India.--In the neighbor-
hood of the little village of Nimal, on
the Salt Range, near the northwest
ern confines of the Punjab, Is a mar
row gorge through which flows a
perennial stream of water. Here a
dam is being constructed, $50 feet
high, which will impound a mass of
water with surface area of some
five square miles. This water will be
used for the irrigation of the plain
extending from the foot Of the Salt
Range toward Mianwali. Already the
foundations have been satisfactorily
completed, and work is being pushed
rapidly forward. This project will
probably be followed by other storage
projects in various parts of the Pun

PEACH PROSPECTS
N GREAT BRITAIN
Consul Swain Returns to Subject
Which Interests Yakima VAL
ley Growers

Ranchers OF the Yakima valley
who are peach producers will re-
memer statement published in The
Herald some time ago from United
States Consul Swain, at Southamp-
ton, Eng, in which he referred to
Washington and Ontario peaches in
the British market. The latest from
the same authority should prove to be
interesting to growers here. He says:
my article for November 8, 1911,
called attention to the inferiority in
packing Of peaches received in Eng
land from the State Of Washington to
those from Ontario. OF additional
interest is the recent heavy shipment
of refrigerated peaches from South
Africa to English markets. Although
transported about 5000 miles, they
are placed on sale in attractive and
fine favored condition.
mot only have peaches been thus
sent by the thousands Of cases. but
Cape plums and choice pears come
packed in the same way. An empty
South African packing case, with the
packing in nested form, is forwarded
(and will be loaned to interested firms
by the Bureau of ManufHcturcs)
Wholesale dealers here say that IL the
choice American fruit is sent in like
excellent condition of quality and
pack 1t would be sure to nnd a good
market and bring profitable returns.
This should especially interest the
peach growers of the Atlantic
States. If the growers of Early Alex
ander peaches at Stellenb aach Cane
Colony, can pack % fruit to the case
at that distant point and sell them at
a profit in England, it is apparent that
horticulturists in the United States
can do as WE'LL"
