give even greater differences in mill
yields.
On October End the Sheaves from the
outside of the shocks and those from
the inside of the shocks were threshed
separately. The two lots of rice, in
marked bags, were stored in
a public warehouse at Dayton, Texas,
until October oath, when both lots were
shipped to Houston, Texas, for milling.
On October 25th the rice was carefully
weighed and milled. complete data be.
ing secured of the milling results
Rice from the outside of the shocks, as
well as from the inside of the shocks,
was milled so as to secure maximum
yield of fancy head" The speed, feed,
and adjustment of the grading de.
vices were as near as mill operations
permit, the same for the two lots.
Especial attention is called to the
difference in the yield of the two lots.
The protected rice, or that from the
inside of the shocks. produced TIP
pounds more per barrel of the high
grade, clean rice, designated as fancy
head, than was secured from the ex.
posed rice, or that from the outside
SheaveS.
Second head" yield was ia pounds
per barrel greater. Screenings shows
1853 pounds per barrel larger yield in
! the exposed rice than in the protected
rice. A corresponding difference in
the yield is also shown in all the differ
ent grades of broken rice, showing thai
the exposure of the rice in the shocks
to ordinary weather conditions has {
deterioating effect upon its grade ant
milling quality.
The practical benefit to be derived
from this experiment may yet remain
to be shown. Of course in order to ge
the best yield of high grade rice tn
shocks should be protected from
: weather conditions but just how thi
| can be effected without to great eS
! pense remains to be seen. The resul
OF this experiment however is Valuabl
and may serve to solve the probler
presented of how to get the highes
Y grade and the best yield.

ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT FOR WELSH,
Election for Bond Issue Carried by Overwhelming
rIajority in Tuesdays Election. Con-
struction Work to Begin at Once

The special election> Tuesday on the
Electric Light proposition was carried
in favor of the light plant by almost a
unanimous vote. There were eighty.
three votes representing a property
valuation of $40, 10000 polled in favor of
the proposition while only II votes
representing $11,32OOO valuation OF
property were polled against it.
The proposition was submitted to the
qualified tax payers to issue negotiable
bonds to the amount of $4,000 bearing
5 per cent interest and to run ten
years, the money to be used for the
purpose of establishing and construct.
ing system of electric lights for the
town, the title to which to vest in the
public.
Already arrangements have been
made to place the bonds and nothing
stands in the way of immediate steps
for construction work.
A consulting engineer will at once
be engaged to make a survey OF the
town.. make blue prints, etc.; upon the
completion of this work the council
will establish the location of wires
posts, and street lights. Then bids will
be advertised for and the contract fol
construction will be let.
1t is figured that the town ought t
be lighted by December LIST if no un
forseen delay is met with.

(Raymond Review.)

Governor Lister and the state high
way board certainly have the right
system for the proper development of
our state highways. The careful ex-
animation of every portion of the Pa
c.fic highway now being made is COM
mendable. There is no better way of
knowing what should be done than to
go over the ground and personally in
spect each portion Of the road to be
improved. The proper way to finally
get fairly passable road is to so i'm
prove it that it. can be used in it's en-
tire length. To build few miles of
first class hard surfaced road in close
proximity to some city will not do the
work like getting out into the country
and improving the worst places so
that there may be travel during the
whole year. To expend the entire ap-
preparation for the Pacific highway on
four or five miles of highly finished
road will never bring about satisfac-
tory results. If the road is fairly pas
sable and in use. more effort will GER
tainly be made for it's proper improve
ment than if there are a few miles of
expensive, hard-surfaced roads and the
balance of the way so that it is impas-
sable. The experience of almost every
locality in the state is that if the road
can be put in such condition that it
may be used, the demand Immediately
becomes strong for further improve
ment. We hope the governor and the
state highway commission will view
this matter as we see it.

A Disgrace to His Craft.
(SnohomiSh Tribune.)


Representative Stanley of Kentucky
is urging that federal Office be given
printer named Kaufman, of Coates
vile, Pa, for this reason, says an ex-
change: Kaufman, years ago, printed
boodling agreement between several
steel companies, kept copy Of it, and
when the Stanley committee went to
investigating, Kaufman furnished
them with copy of this agreement.
For this, he claims, he wa sboycotted
and his business ruined. Stanley
thinks that Kaufman should be re-
warded with an Office. No old printer
will agree with Representative Stan
Icy. The ethics of the printing craft,
from medieval days downward. i'm
pose as imperative obligations of Sc
crecy as does the physicians oath or
lodge obligation. Printers who respect
their craft do not peddle secrets which
come to them as part of their business.
