The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-10-01

A decision by the state attorney
general is causing a great deal of I'M
easiness in the fruit districts of the
state. When the last legislature pass
ed the new law placing the several
state commissions of an agricultural
nature under one head they tailed to
provide for deputy officials. Under
the ruling, horticultural inspectors
we're summarily dismissed the most
noticeable trouble arises from the fact
that inspect ors who have been fighting
pests in the orchard districts are left
without authority or remuneration.
During the past year relentless war
has been made on the pear blight, and
it has been said is costing the state
$500, 900 year. This ruling bids fair
to put stop to this work. 1t is
hoped some 1eadjustment nay be
made SO that the work can proceed
and the orchards saved as the danger
is very grave enc.

before changing from the present
profitable CO operative company to a
privately owned condenser.

One of the most valuable books
which has reached our desk for a long
time is Irrigation. This is book
of nearly 100 pages, by Henry r.
Worthington lis Broadway, New York
City. The book has several pages of
tables showing the amount of water
supplied through different means of
transmission, per hour, per day land
per month. Also tables showing the
cost OF water per acre supplied by
different methods, and treats of the
several methods of irrigation, show
Ing the defects, advantages and cost.
In fact for the farmer who uses irrig-
alton the book is invaluable and will
be sent free by the author.

The Portland Union Stock Yards
has recently issued Bulletin, called
"Pacitic Northwest Swine Husband
ry.' This bulletin is gotten out for
the express purpose of boosting the
swine industry in the Pacific North
west. It is filled with valuable in
formation about the different breeds
of hogs, giving their history and
characteristics, but its real value is
found in the advice of raising, breed
ing, feeding and the care of swine
1t is work which should be in the
hands of every hog raiser on the
Pacific Coast.

ARE THE PEOPLE FAIR TIRED.

The fact that the big fairs of the
state are constantly losing money
brings fair boosters up against seri-
Gus question. The King County Fair,
with which the writer is most familiar,
lost nearly $15, 900 at its 1913 fair.
This was not to be wondered at 50
much for the reason that this was the
second one for several years in King
county, and the people had not the
confidence n it that they should have
had. But when such an exposition as
the Interstate Fair at Spokane and
the Provincial Fair at Vancouver, B.
c., find big balance on the wrong
side of the ledger, it becomes a seri
Gus question whether the people have
not tired of these annual expositions
and hereafter will not take sufficient
interest to make them successes. The
Vancouver exposition gives one of the
finest shows in the world. The gov
eminent backs it with unlimited
money, and highly paid salaried men
of unquestioned ability are in charge,
still the fair is steadily losing money.
The Interstate Fair IS private cor
poration backed by some of the
wealthiest men of Spokane. They
give one of the best exhibitions in the
country and spare no expense for it's
entertainment features or for premi
ums. Il is about Is years old and in
the control of some of the best fair
men of the state. In spite of this it
lost $18, 900 last year and at least 800,
600 this year, and this years week
was the finest weather ever known.
In spite of this, however, there we're
but 81, 900 more receipts over last year.
In view OF these facts it is a serious
question whether these big expositions
will ever be made to pay. 1t costs
such vast sum Of money to put on
these expositions that the gate receipts
must be enormous to pay the expenses
and evidently the people are tired of
them and will not attend no matter
what the attractions may be.

At the Interstate Fair at Spokane
last week the Hardwood Farms sold
Holstein COW for S1375. This was
Hazelwood Bracelet De Kol, one of
the finest animals of this famous
strain of Holsteins ever produced.
The COW was bought by D. w. Bruins,
of Palouse, and is said to be the high
est price ever paid for Holstein in
the Northwest.

The North Pacific Fruit Distrib-
uter's Union closed deal last week
for the sale of 1000 cars of apples at
an average price Of about $1,000 car.
Prices range from $1.53 to $500 a
box. This is good news to fruit grow
ers of the Northwest who believe in
cooperation, as this organization was
effected only after a great deal OF
trouble and in the face of strong op.
posi- ton.

By O. B. Keeler.

THERE is d funny thing about
baseball that crops out main
ly in the off season. That is
the disposition of ball players on
first division clubs. even on first
place clubs to get mad and quit dur
ing the winter.
Sometimes this sort of thing is in
dulged in with the canny idea of
sticking the management for a hike
in the pay envelope. TY Cobb has
pulled it more than once.
And then sometimes the resigning
athletes really are sore, and in dead
earnest about quitting. The follow
ing examples may be one, and may
be the other Our guess is that a
salary hoist would bring EN- all back.
A NYWAY, it occurs to us that if
~ any baseball job on earth would
be worth having and sticking to, it
would be a job on the team piloted
by Connie Mack. Why any ball play
er ornamenting Mr.. MCGilliCuddys
pay roll should get mad and quit 1t
beyond US.
And yet Mr.. ]. Franklin Baker has
announced that he is doing that very
thing. The odd thing about it is he
doesn't give any reasons. If he came
out with an excuse of better paying
business" it wouldn't be hard to
pipe it off. But he just says he's
going to quit-in effect, that he has
quit.
Still we'll take a modest wager
or two that J. f. Baker plays profess
sional ball next year. We will even
get on the short end of a long shot
that Mr.. B. gets into the next world $
series-if any.
GRANTING that it is a matter Of
~ salary with Mr.. Baker, what
about these excuses for the following
trio of Giants?
Tillie Shafcr has combination of
complaints, not salved to the sooth-
ing point even by cuts of the w. S.
melon. Tillie says his more or less
conspicuously public position attracts
to him so many 'mash" notes from
fair fans that his heart is running his
digestion by kicking so much, which

ity that had taken hold of the town,
finding expression in vociferOus yelling,
singing, strange parade formations and
an utter disregard for the quiet which
usually attends a busy Saturday there.
The reason was the presence in the Min
nesota City OF the University Of Chicago
football squad, there to battle this after
noon with the Minnesota squad for the
championship of the Western confer
ence.
Dope on both teams was freely hand
ed out to-day before the men lined up
on Northrup Field. Betting was mostly
at even money, although some more
wildly enthusiastic hackers of both
teams offered slight odds in order to get
takers,
