The Kennewick courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1905-1914, 1913-08-22

John Scott Mills, speclal writer
for the O-W. R. & N. passenger de-
partment, was in Kennewick Mon
dav, His mission on the present
tr;n is to ascertain to what extent
the practices of dairylng and hog
raising are being taken up by the
farmers along the company's lines
and the data gathered by him is to
he used in literature which will soon
be issued by the railroad. Mr..
Mills is visiting the communities
throughout the Walla Walla, Col
umbia and Yakima valleys at which
stops we're made by the dairying
demonstration train sent out by the
.O-W. R. & n. last December.
Mr.. Mills was enthusiastic over
the progress which is being made by
dairvmen and swine breeders in this
valley. Asked to give an outline of
conditions as he found them here,
he said:
"The cream from 800 head OF
dairy COWS is handled through the
Kennewick creamery. AS high as
1900 pounds of butter have been
made in single month. There is
distributed monthly the sum of
$500 to 10 dairymen.
There are 1000 hogs in the Ken
newick valley and eight carloads
have been shipped SO far this year.
There are large paintings of corn
in the valley which will yield from
10 to Is tons of the green product
for silage and the matured cereal
will average at least 60 bushels pei
acre.
This triumvirate of good things
for the farmer-the mich cow, the
hog and the cornfeld-spells sue.
cess to the man on the land. Nc
one questions the excellence of your
fruits. No one will care to dispute
the fact that you are early in the
market, and no one can truthfully
say that your greater asset will bt
in the way of products from the
dairy cow and the hog ranch.
THE O-W. R. & N. Co. has in
terested itself in getting land owners
to engage in dairying, swine breed
ing and corn growing. Diversified
farming is the keynote to success ir
agriculture. Our demonstration
trains, our agriculturists and oul
writers have visited every section O
territory penetrated by our lines
and the trail of the demonstration
train and the route of the agricul
turist is marked by productive
farms, where the cream check, th'
proceeds from sales of pork ane
poultry have brought independence
When your creamery began op
erations in October, 1911, ther'
were less than 100 COWS in the val
ley and the creamery had nine pat
rons. The O-W. r. & n. was il
the midst of its campaign and work
ing in conjunction with the farm
ers, has helped to establish indus
tries which are increasing in i'm
portance every month.
Our corn growing campaign il
receiving hearty and united sup
port. Corn and alfalfa make tn,
&oalanced ration for COWS and hogs
In ten years the corn crop of Wash
ington will be as large as its whea
crop. Silos are to be built and corr
and alfalfa silage will mean unin
terrupted flow of milk and con
tlnued prosperity.
The O-W. R. & n. Co. has jus
received 1000 box cars so feet long
and of 100000 pounds capacity
and they will be used to aid il
handling the crop of the Northwest
This new equipment, with cars al
ready in Use and with the privileg
of using Union Pacific equipmen
means the elimination of the word

 We have just passed through pc riod of organization of the machinery of the modern world" he declared

 The ambassador refers enthusiastic cally to the effects Of th. education Il propaganda in the Southern states and to the influence Of the conference for education in the South.
 We begun with the school and the child, and we end with them of course" He sets forth in alludipg to the educational campaign in Dixie land, but every step has been to a widening democratic ideal to see how we could help one another. and we have come to have a broadening sense of all that cooperation means"

Within a radius of 800 feet from the scene of the explosion. every house was demolished, while further away in the village and in the adjoining town of San Pedro, many fine residences were badly damaged and their interior furnishings ruined.

Canadian Officers Stop Flishs-Fo
 Try Extradition.

Western Newspaper t'~'nn New. se-vir.
 Sherbrook, Que-Harry K. Thaw, cut short in his flight from the State Hospital for the Criminal Insane at Matteawan, N Y. by arrest at the village of St Hermen .ngild de Garford, just over the international line from New. Hampshire. prepared in his cell in the county jail here to fight against being sent back to the United states.
 Thaw faces deportation on the ground that he is an undesirable alien, and extradition on a warrant charging him with bribery. The warrant al ready issued in New York state for bis arrest on a charge of conspiracy. will not suffice 10 eKtradite him, in the opinion of local authorities. These authorities received word that the dis trict attorney of Duchess county. in which Matteawan is located. was on his way here prepared to swear to a warrant charging Thaw with bribery an extraditable offense-if neces- sary
 In his own defense, Thaw claims he was merely passing through Canada on his way to Detr-jt. when his passage was interrupted by his arrest. He ex- hibited what he claimed 10 be trans portation to Detro. in support of this contention, and cited the case of Jack Johnson to bear out his contention that he cannot be sent back to the United States by Canadian authorities as long as he was simply passing through it's borders.
