100000 TROUT FOR
SOUTH PALOUSE RIVER
County Game Commissioners VIII
Ask for Rainbow and Cutthroat
Tr0ut-Hickman Made
County Warden

The first meeting of the county
game commission, recently appointed
by the state game warden and con-
sisting of Harry Austin of Pullman,
Jesse Neil of Colfax and II. E. Witte
of Oakesdale, was held at Colfax
Monday, when the board organized
by electing Jesse Neil chairman. The
action of the commissioners of prin-
cipal interest to this section was the
decision to ask the government for
100000 rainbow and cutthroat trout
to be planted in the South Palouse
river between Pullman and Colfax.
The matter was previously taken up
with the state fish commissioner,
who stated that in his opinion the
South Palouse would prove an ideal
stream for the speckled beauties.
The same number of lake trout and
bass will be asked for Rock lake, in
western Whitman county, formerly
an anglers paradise, but now almost
depleted of the game fish.
James Hickman of Colfax was Sc
lected as county game warden, with
his salary fixed at $50 per month,
which will be paid from funds de-
rived from the sale of county hunting
Licenses. The game warden is en-
powered with authority to appoint as
many deputy wardens, who serve
without pay, as he desires, and has
announced that he will appoint one
deputy for each section of the county,
including one for Pullman, one for
Oakesdale and one for western Whit
man county. The farmers OF the
county are asked to cooperate with
the game warden and the county
commission in enforcing the state
game laws, and any violation OF the
laws which they report will be prose-
cuted.

H0PPERS DAMAGE BARLEY

That the armies of grasshoppers
which have appeared in the Snake
iifef country cost him at least one
'nird of his barley crop is the opinion
y frank Wilson, who is farming the
ered Hungate place at the head of
aimota canyon. Mr.. Wilson just
nhished threshing 1875 acres of
Oearded barley with a combined har-
sester' and reports a yield of 30
Oushels per acre. About two weeks
ago Mr.. Wilson estimated his barley
,'eid at 80 bushels per acre and the
Aoppers are responsible for the dis
e'epancy. The grasshoppers have a
s'eat liking for barley and attack the
ius In large numbers, cutting the
4eaus from the standing grain.

WILL LET CONTRACTS

The board of regents of the w. s..
c. will hold meeting next Saturday,
August 8, to receive bids and let the
contracts for the construction of the
new mechanic arts and agricultural
buildings. At the June meeting 1t
was decided to name the agricultural
building James Wilson" hall, in
honor of the recently retired secre-
tary Of agriculture. The estimated
cost of each of the new buildings Is
$150,000 and they will be the most
imposing structures on the campus.
The idea is to complete the build
ings gradually. as funds become
available from the mill tax. The new
subway, through which the coal for
use in the mechanic arts building
will be drawn from the concrete
bunkers at the foot of the hill, is
nearly completed and the old surface
tramway will soon be removed.

HOPPER SITUATION
SERIOUS" --YOTHERS
Visits Infested Area
and Reports Much Damage to
Fruit Trees and Growing
Crops

Thousands of dollars damage
has been done to the fruit and gar
den tract along the Snake river by
grasshoppers, which have appeared
recently in large armies, and thou
sands of dollars more of damage
will be done before the close of the
hot weather period unless the fruit
raisers take immediate and drastice
measures to stop the inroads of the
pests" said Professor NJ. A. Yoth-
ers, entom ologist at the State ex-
pertinent Station, who returned Sun
day from tour of inspection of the
entire Snake river district from Star
buck To Lewiston.
Mr.. Yothers spent three days in
vestigating conditions along the
river and acquainting fruit raisers
with the proper methods of eradicat-
ing the pests and reports that the
situation is a desperate one. He says
fruit raisers do not realize the seri-
BUSINESS of the situation.
The hoppers have appeared in
great numbers at Almota, Wawawai,
in the Pomeroy valley from Starbuck
to Pomeroy, and have attacked the
fruit tracts at Riviera, in which
President E. A. Bryan of the Wash
ington State College is heavily inter-
ested.
Mr.. Yothers reports that across
the river from Almota entire or
chards have been stripped of fruit
and leaves and acres of corn have
been totally destroyed, while at Wa
wawai and in the Pomeroy valley
fruit tracts, alfalfa fields, corn, to-
matoes and garden truck have been
attacked and great damage done.
From Almota up the river to Lew
iston the grasshoppers do not appear
in such great numbers, and little
damage has yet been done in the
Lewiston country. Many growers IN
the Snake river district will lose
large part of their late crops, inelud-
ing peaches, apples, corn, tomatoes,
alfalfa and garden truck. as re-
suit of the destruction by the winged
hordes.
Mr. Yothers has prepared state
ment covering the grasshopper sitna-
ton and methods of destroying the
pests. which will be sent to farmers
and fruit raisers in the infested area
