INTEREST IS TAKEN
IN WHEAT CONTEST

Portland, Ore, July 10.-(SpeciaD
How the judges will find the best
five bushels of wheat crown in the
American Northwest and determine
who is entitled to the $4,000 prize Of
fered for five bushels of wheat by
the Northwest Development League,
is told by President Lewis Penwell
of the league, who has given much
time TO working out the details.
How many people will pick over
five bushels of wheat in order to get
the kernels uniform, remove weed
seed, have only plump, bright, sweet
seeds in the sample and thus get the
grain little nearer perfect, is a ques-
tion which is interesting the Develop
ment League, but it appears that a
large number are willing to hand
pick the wheat.
-Four hundred farmers have writ
ten the secretary and declared their
intention of entering this contest"
said Mr.. Penwell in a letter to the
Portland Commercial club. with
prospects for the best grain crops
the American Northwest has ever
known, there will be plenty of COM
petition for the prize offered at the
Northwestern Products Exposition in
November.
Three Judges Chosen.
Three judges will be selected by
the present and the agronomists of
the agricultural colleges of the seven
states competing. Oregon, Minneso-
ia, the Dakotas, Idaho and Washing
ton. The judges must come from
without the American Northwest. 1t
is not expected that these judges will
all be agricultural college people:
some one of them will probably be
from one of the grain exchanges of
the country-a judge of commercial
grains.
Judging will be in three ways:
first, according to the accepted score
card; second, by a milling and bak-
ing test, and third, by the yield per
acre"
Mr.. Penwell says the judging by
the standard score is probably the
most interesting, as the exhibitor can
gain points by carefully selecting his
grain. In the milling test, the ex-
hibitor cannot tell what kind OF
bread his wheat will make, but he
can have the wheat clean and free
from impurities. The score card
shows the test which all wheat Is CIV
en- in one way or another at the great
grain markets to determine its com
mercial grade. The judges. in deter
mining the best wheat at the expo
sition. will of course be guided 10y
the same requirements.

DOTTED SWISSES
PLAIN AND SIMPLE
A Great Variety In VVeaVeS and
Dainty PiQuant Patterns.

Dotted swiss seems always to be in
demand for summer wear. Whether
we wear fine weaves or heavy meshes.
there is always a place for the swiss
gown.
Each season the swisses seem to
grow prettier The spring of 1912 is. no
exception to the rule
There are plain and simple white
swisses with dots of all sizes-sheer.

little separate blouSes. whole frocks.
dainty negligees or the children's dress
es. These. however. are only one
branch of this interesting swiss family.
1t is the swisses with color that are
especially charming. They come in all
sorts of new and radiant combinations
There are the dainty and demure
ones with white grounds. with dots or
wee rosebuds and green leaves scat
tered over the surfaces.
Then there are the white ones with
colored borders. and these are delight
full. Sometimes they have borders Of
great rose colored dots. or perhaps
there is quaint and old fashioned
delft blue in regular. geometric pat
tern.
One very French looking swiss was
of delicate blue with little pink rose
buds scattered over the surface and
not very far apart. Still others have
white grounds with both white and
colOred dots.

The Color Note.

A method of introducing a note of
color into the costume is to be found
in the handkerchief of the moment. A
little square of lawn. with a border in
some bright tint. is tucked into the
fastening of the tailor made. Great care
is necessary. however. to strike the cor
rect note The little accessory must
match some part Of the toilet. If the
hat is trimmed with one of the new
shaded dah.ias in fuchsia tints the
handkerchief will be ornamented with
French knots in the two shades. The
shades of green plume should be re-
peated tone for tone.

Horse Owners
Try PerSiflage

Rival claims concerning the reputed
speed of their several horses made by
Mortified farmers, which led to a dis
turbance in the public highway in a cut
through the Second mountain, West Or
ange, will be aired in the West Orange
police station tomorrow. Recorder
Woods today issued papers in a com
plant made by John A. Krantz against
August Rain, after listening to the
Krantz story, which was supported by
a visitor to the court, who pointed to
red welts on his neck as violence that
he had sustained a beating during the
quarrel. The story is that the drivers
of the rigs were on their way home
from Newark, walking the horses.
AS Krantz tried to pass Rain, the man
ahead swung his rig so as to pocket

ing compliments and when a man who

trip was then conntiued.
All this happened a week age and the
longer the Krantz party thought over
the matter the "madder" they got and
today the police were told about the
row and the summons issued.
In the gossip told Chief William H.
Bamford by the farming folk today

the two drivers as a result of the re-
mark made by Krantz that his horses
were of an unusually nne type and so

walk faster than the Rain stock could

There's one in Harrison whom few

Three months ago little blondy was
born In Harrison at the home of Alice
Wilson, of ALI North Fourth street. Police
action brought by the mother resulted In
James Henderson, of Baker street, Maple
wood, making several explanations as 10
why he was not living with the woman

father. Henderson got married after that,
but not to the Harrison mother, and
trouble ensued.
Last night trouble broke out afresh
Relatives of Alice Wilson took the baby
to Maplewood and left 1t at the door OF
the home of Henderson. Henderson'e
present wife saw the child, realized there
were no children in her family to her
knowledge, and ran after the two women
who left the waif on the stoop.
Mrs. Henderson carried the child as she
ran. At Valley and Baker streets she
met the Harrison women waiting for q
car and promptly dropped the little bun.

The Harrison women took the unlovec

child a limited time In which to clear

Detective Sergeant Walter Godfrey, of
the prosecutors office, went to Brooklyn
yesterday afternoon and last night

with horse-stealing.
On May 6 last Preston climbed on the
plumbing wagon of Emil e. Steiner, of
IS Union street, while the driver. Howard
Van Hise, Of 100 Congress street, was
delivering some goods. Preston drove
the wagon to Brooklyn, got intoxicated
and was arrested while trying to dispose
of the rig two days later. He was ar
rested for drunkenness, but the fact that
the name had been scratched of the
wagon made the Brooklyn police sua
picious.
At the same time Detective Sergeant
Thomas j. CORDIALLY, of headquarters, got
a tip that the horse was in Brooklyn,
went there and identified 1t. A charge
of horse-stealing was then placed against
Preston and his extradition yesterday
