River and Sullivan Creek, and in the
southwest part of the reservation the
flow of Camas and Cottonwood creeks
will supply 5000 acres.
The soil of the Flathead reservation
is clay, forest loan and gravelly loan,
and responds quickly to the application
of water The rainfall in this district
is often ample for the production of
most forms of vegetation, and the de-
mands on canals and reservoirs will be
iueonsiderable in those seasons. Where
irrigation has been applied, however,
the results have surpassed even the
hopes Of the most sanguine. The val
leys have been coming to the front
steadily during the past few years in
the variety and quality of their agri-
cultural products. Complete and in
tensive development is only awaiting
the completion of the system of canals
that will distribute water over the 1872
900 acres.

The country in which they grew up
is rich in the grandeur of scenery, with
a wealth of tradition and historical in
cident. The valleys and hills abound
in retreats, each with its own myth and
story. Wonderful waterfalls and lakes
are to be found everywhere, adding
charm and mystery to the one-time
haunts of primitive man. Now the In
dams are passing and the footprints of
his outward path are being obliterated
by the vineyard, the orchard and the
field of grain. Thus the ambition Of
the white man is gradually encroaching
upon the Indian lands, and peaceable
coercion is being used to induce him
to retreat farther back.
For years the Indian and the white
man lived in peace together in the Bit
ter Root valley Gradually it filled up
with immi grants from the East, and
the Garfield treaty was drawn up to
induce the Indian to retire into the

The story of the inroads of settle
ment into the Flathead Indian reserva-
ton in Western Montana forms one of
the most interesting, if one of the
saddest, chapters in the conquest of
the West. Sad because it marks the
gradual crowding out of peaceable
tribe of native Americans from the
homes their fathers have claimed for
generations, and the consequent thrust
ing upon them Of a civilization they
did not invite yet welcomed. For
years the Flathead, or Selfish Indians,
shared the Bitter Root valley with the
white men, even going so far as to
protect them against the attacks of
outside tribes. It was they who sent
four expeditions to st. Louis to induce
the missionaries to come and tell them
of the white man S medicine after Ig-
mace La Mousse had come at the head
of a band of Iroquois with the mys
terious faith. Three of these expedi-
tions were never heard of again
Brave and fearless warriors, they yet
treated the whites with more consid
Grafton than the average tribes.

system of canals and laterals directly
from the Jocko River. Almost no
reservoirs are needed for this division
and the work has so far progressed that
several thousand acres are now under
the ditch. Water was turned into the
canals and laterals in 1910 and was
distributed to as many Of the Indians
as desired it. The result is apparent
from the luxuriant growth to be found
where water has been applied. Several
thousand acres in the Mission valley
were also brought under the ditch dur
ing the same year. Since 1910 addi-
tional acreage has been added each
year.
In the Mission valley 10000 acres
will eventually be supplied with water,
which win be assembled from all the
streams in the vicinity. A series of
reservoirs and connecting feeder

small patch of land that is already his
own. For though the Flathead Indian
is still part of the Flathead reserva-
ton, he is not the Indian of old. The
younger generation care little for the
encroachments Of civilization, but those
of the old days who are still alive view
with regret the passing of the days of
their youth. AS time goes on the young

ing a juror in the Mcnamara case.
barrow was acquitted on the former
charge shortly after the termination
of that memorable trial, and the open
ing of the second marks another chap
ter in that dark story.
Much Of Mr.. Darrow's life has been
spent in the interest of the laboring
man. Time and again he has come to
the defense of some poor unfortunate
who was without the means to defend
himself properly. His connection with
the defense of Meyer, Haywood and
Pettibone in the Occur d'Alene coun-
try in Idaho brought out every re-
source of the man and demonstrated
his fitness as criminal lawyer. 1t

fought every inch, and when he found
that acquittal was impossible secured
confessions from the principals in

this trial, charges and counter
charges were hurled at each other by
opposing counsel, and among these

In singing the praises of irrigation
one must not lose sight of the fact that
oftentimes the greatest returns from
piece of irrigated land result from
feeding the entire farm product and
taking it off in the form of dairy
products and meat. This commands
particular attention at present in view
of the high price of beef and the ac-
knowledged scarcity of it in the en-
tire country. Western irrigation has
demonstrated its effectiveness and is
still in its infancy. 1t remains for
farmers and fruit growers to find how
the best returns may be realized from
its application. Professor Thomas
Shaw, a prominent railroad agricultur-
list, emphasized the value of dairying
and stock raising on irrigated lands in
a recent address before the Oregon
Irrigation Congress. While his remarks
are applied to Oregon in particular,
they cover the subject in its applica-
ton to every irrigated district in the
West, for the general principle prevails
that where water is brought on to land
its best returns may be realized from
an intensive application of the profit
arising therefrom. Professor Shaw
says in part:
ssIn no line of production can irri-
CATION render better return than in
furnishing food that will be turned into
milk and other dairy products, meat
and wool. For the growing of these
products the door of development
stands open. In no line of agricultural
production is the chance to make good
money better or even as good.
etThe reasons for the stability of the
livestock business in the future are
many. The increase in the number OF
consumers for meat and dairy products
is proceeding at much faster rate
than the animals which produce these
products. The same line of reasoning

Jocko valley. Enjoys Of the govern
ment came with the documents for the
chiefs signature, but Chariot was OBJ
durate. His protecting arm had often
been barred to keep the whites within
his valley from danger. The Bitter
Root valley had been the home of his
ancestors for ages and he would not
sign any papers renouncing forever the
rights of his tribe to these lands. The
pension offered him and the freedom
of roaming at will were scorned. But
Arlee, war chief, elected by the full
vote of the people, found the mercenary
motive in his heart and accepted the
terms thus offered him, supplanted
Chariot as chief and moved with a
large part of the tribe into the Jocko
valley. Chariot made trip to Wash
ngton and entered his protest, beg
ging for the privilege of staying in
the land of his fathers. But his re-
quest was UNDECIDED. A few years later
all trace of the Indians possessions in
this valley has disappeared.
Now the Jocko valley is filling up
rapidly with whites. Now the Indian

son the irrigated lands the oppor-
tunities for growing swine are superla-
lively good. This is more especially
true when the swine are grown in
connection with dairying. 1t follows
from the abundance of food that can
be grown which is exactly adapted to
the needs of the swine. No pasture
has ever been produced that will meet
their needs in better form than alfalfa
or that will produce so much food per
acre, and where can alfalfa be grown
better than on the irrigated lands of
Oregon? 1t follows from the further
facts that the grain that produces the
pork of the highest quality. such as
barley and field peas, may be grown in
the first form on these lands. The eli
mate also fayors such production. It's
equable and mild character favors the
production of two litters per year from
the same dam should this be desired.
In areas with cold winters it is scarce
ly practicable to grow profitably two
filters in one season.
''Pork thus grown should not cost
the producer more than three cents per
pound. 1t cannot be grown more
cheaply in the best sections of the
corn belt, nor can the corn belt pro
duee bacon of equal quality with Ore
gon. The conditions for growing pork
of the highest quality on the irrigated
lands of Oregon are at least as good
as they are in Denmark, and Oregon
has great lead in the natural rich
ness of the soil and in the equable char
acter of the climate. Why should MOI

R. H. Williams, president of the Chi
cage, Milwaukee & Puget Sound Rail-
way, has just received in his Seattle
office several samples of apples and
grapes grown on twenty-acre orchard
in the new Moses Lake district east
Of Wenatchee. The owner secured TO-
600 boxes of apples alone from his
ranch during the season just past.
The Milwaukee road has completed a
branch line into the Moses Lake dis
trict, which is now in operation into
the town of Neppel and several prof.
ects are under way for the reclama-
ton of large areas of land. Recent de-
velopments in this new fruit-growing
section have resulted in considerable
activity on the part of the railroads,
who recognize the district as future
feeder of considerable Importance. The
Great Northern Railway has surveyed
a cutoff from its main line which
passes through the center OF this re-
gion.
Reports of the large crops raised by
those who have already settled in the
Moses Lake country have aroused much
interest here, and large number OF
Seattle people have become financially
interested in the district. One firm is
just now placing on the market four en-,
tire sections of these lands, which are
irrigated by means of pumping plants
The entire district is underlaid with
sheet water, and in fact it was the re
cent discovery of this water which
caused the great activity in the dis
trict. Now settlers are going in by the

barrow became involved in the al
legged bribing of jurors. January goth
the first venire was drawn and the
process of making up jury begun.
1t is a trying moment in the life
of Mr.. Darrow. Guilty or not, he
comes to the bar of justice after a
long and successful career before that
self-same bar and must submit to the
gruelling tactics Of the prosecution as
he has often applied those same tactics
to the defendant. Past the prime of
life, with the hardest of life's battles
fought and with the prospect of
passing his remaining years in Quiet
retirement, he is called out to face
charges that, whether they are proven
or not, will leave scar on his name
forever. For there will be some who
will refuse to believe him innocent,
regardless of the outcome. The means
he has accumulated during the years
of toll will go, much of it, to clear his
name of the tarnish, and where seemed
to be the hope of ease for the balance
of his allotment of years, there may
be want, loneliness and toll. Without
considering at all the question of his
guilt or innocence, the circumstance
calls for sympathy, for the accused
can not escape certain amount OF
contamination.

have special adaptation for the produc-
ton at low cost of dairy products,
whether milk. butter, cheese or the by
products Of the dairy, as skim milk and
buttermilk.
"Good water, so essential in dairy
husbandry, is abundant in all sections
where irrigation is practicable in Ore
gon. This follows from the fact that
the water comes from living streams
that in nearly all instances are Graded
in the mountains The relation be-
tween pure water, abundant in sup
ply, and high quality in the dairy
product is so close as to be inseparable.
''The Oregon dairyman has great
advantage over dairymen, for instance,
who live in climates that are less
equable. He is not handicapped by
such heat in summer that comes to
the South nor by the cold in the win
ter that comes to the North east of
the Rocky Mountains. To the Oregon
dairyman the equable climate brings
much advantage. 1t enables him to
prolong the grazing season and it calls
for less expensive shelter. Some per
sons cherish the view that the man hv-
ing on irrigated lands, whose holding
is usually limited, has not room on
which to Craze his cattle; but they fail
to consider that the production of irri
gated lands in pasture is quite as large
relatively, as the production Of the
same in hay.
''With the price for dairy product:
as they are and as has been shown, il
is not probable that they will be les:
in the near future. The dairyman OF
irrigated land should reap very
profitable return. With such possibih
ties within reach of the Oregon dairy
man it will be greatly to the diseredit
of Oregon farmers if the state con
tinues for any considerable period t.
be purchaser of dairy products"

try and its prospects Ira D. Edwards
of Wenatchee was recently quoted as
follows:
CT have never seen any orchard In

Lake region. The orchard referred to
is the Tichacek homestead. 1 simply
marvel at the magnificent fruit they
have grown there. The trees are now

season there was harvested on this
place 10000 boxes of fancy apples,
which brought $1.45 per. box net
through the Wenatchee Fruit Growers
Association. The orchard produced
about 5000 boxes of Jonathans alone.
They ran fully 60 per cent extra fancy.
The size was better than four tier on
the average.
ttPeople in other districts have no
conception of what they are doing in
the Moses Lake district. Canadians
from across the border seem to be ap-
preciating the district more than those
of us who live nearer to it. Between
Is and 90 sections Of Moses Lake or
ehard land have been sold to Cana
dams in the last few months.
e'First thing we know we folks in
Wenatchee and other parts of the
Northwest are going to wake up to the
fact that we must pay about twice as
much for acreage around Moses Lake
as it is selling for today. There is q
