WHAT IS THE VALUE
OF cOl0N|sT FAMILY?
Northwest Development League
Complies Figures Which Are
Very Interesting

Some interesting figures are being
compiled by the Northwest Develop
ment league to show the value of
colonist and his family. Here is
problem in long figures which looks
reasonable If the increase in popu-
lation in the American northwest dur
ing the last ten years of 100000
people caused our lands to increase in
value $2,S12,450,1S2, how much is
colonist who works the land worth?
These figures show that for every per-
son added to population the value of
our lands was increased $1406. If a
family consists of two and half peo-
pie on the average, each family in
creases land values $3515. On the
other hand and added to this, it is
conceded that every family spends
locally from $500 to $1,000 per annum.
On this basis family which works
the land is worth about $4,000 to the
American northwest.
Beats Rest of World
When seven states realize an in
crease of $2,s12,45o,1S2 in the value
of their farms in ten years, some idea
Of the worth of new settlers can be
obtained. The seven states of Min
nesota, North and South Dakota,
Montana, Idaho, Washington and
Oregon realized this increase--almost
three billions of dollars
The securing of two million more
people, increasing the number of
farms only 114,363, brought this add
ed amount of wealth. In short, for
every person added to the population
of the northwest during ten years
there has been corresponding in
crease in the value of farm lands of
$1406.
The seven states now commonly
known as the American Northwest in
creased the acreage of improved lands
23,6S6,S02 acres during the ten years.
If actual comparisons could be made
there is little doubt but what this vast
growth would compare favorably If
not exceed the record of any other
section on the map of the world.

BIG POTATO SHIPMENTS
Pacific Fruit Express Man Tells of
Large Southern Trade

PORTLAND, May 3.--That more
than 1900 cars of potatoes have been
shipped out of the Northwest so far
this season and that several hundred
more cars will be shipped out before
the harvesting Of the new crop, is
the opinion of S A. Herring, of Port
land, agent for the Pacific Fruit Elk
press
Mr. Herring states that in all parts
of the Northwest large acreages Of
potatoes are being planted this sea-
son on account of the excessive prices
being received These prices he states
were caused by southern buyers jump
ing into the market and securing
large lots of potatoes. He says the
slump which struck the potato mar
ket some two weeks ago was caused
by overstocking of the southern buy
ers. He says that the market will
probably be firm within a few weeks.

SOME FIGURES ON FRUIT
One Canadian Province Exports More
Than Entire United States

AS the apple shipments have now
ceased for the season, the following
figures may be of interest to Yakima
valley growers:
Total shipments for the season
1911-1912 were as follows:
From Nova Scotia, 1.150,000 bar
rels; from Canada. $500 barrels;
from America 1,072,051 barrels. To-
tai, 2,607, 900.
OF the lot from America, probably
10000 We're pears.
The total number of boxes shipped
from America was 4S9,961 which
We're shipped to the following ports
namely: To Liverpool 34,213: to
London, 192,237; to Glasgow, 47,7S2;
to Hamburg, 59,767; various, 45,962
principally to Scandinavian ports.
AS rule these figures are seldom
dissected and many Americans see
ing the total of 100000 barrels
might think these We're all shipped
from the United States. As will be
seen from the above figures, Nova
Scotia shipped out more apples than
the United States.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY,

On last Monday night John Balm
got a mad fit or spell of some kind
and went running along the streets
shooting at the little children, whom
he chanced to see. Then he
went to his home at 933 West Thir-
teenth street and shot his wife, Mrs.
Ollie Balm and then made his escape.
She was taken to Mercy hospital,
where she died the next day. The
funeral was held Thursday, conduct
ed by Rev. H. G.. Darden, the Holy
Saints minister, to which faith she
belonged. She was an honest, indus
trious, hard working woman and has
the sympathy of the community. The
officers finally located Mr.. Balm down
at the foot of Fourth street at his
barn, where he was barricaded in.
When they began to break down the
door he shot himself and when the
officers reached him in the barn he
was just breathing his last. He was
a teamster and hauled ashes and had
$50 on his body.
