structed standard side track along
the entire length of the property, with
sufflclent space reserved for double
tracking for future use. The track is
the longest of this kind ever provided

succeeded in securing the last few

The Ralph Overman Company.
Regarding the Ralph -Overman cor
poration the Spokesman Review makes
the following comment:
"W. II. Ralph of Nezperce, Idaho,
and A. V. Overman of Grangeville,
Idaho, are in the city and are incor-
porating the Ralph Overman company, a
live stock commission company, to
operate on the Spokane Live Stock ex-
change, now being organized to operate
in connection with the Spokane Union
Stock Yards company. Mr.. Ralph is
stopping at the st. Nicholas hotel and
will soon bring his family to that city,
making this their permanent home. Mr..
Overman and family already have
moved to Spokane.
"Mr. Ralph has wide acquaintance
with stockmen throughout Washington,
Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Wyoming,
having operated in this territory for
the past 2l years. He has, during this
time, conducted most of the large stock
sales, selling last year approximately
100000 worth of stock. He has con-
ducted all of the fat stock sales at
Lewiston and all of the fat stock sales
at the Union stock yards, Portland,
since that company commenced business
in 1909.
"Mr. Overman is thorough stock
man, having gained his experience in
association with his father, and E. s.
Sweet one of the directors of the Spo-
kane Union Stock Yards company. Mr..
Overman is well known, especially in
his home state, Idaho. The Ralph
Overman Commission company will
handle cattle, hogs and sheep, stockers
and feeders as we'll as fat and fancy
stock, and will make speciality of

are signs that exhaustion is setting in

between the periods of intense exertion

culture and Mr.. R w Collett, assist
ant director Of state farms, have all
been with Supt. F. T. Meacham at

checked up the orchard work of the
farm for the year and found that, az
ter deducting all expenses connected
with its, the orchard has yielded a
profit of$75 to the acre.
The orchard is composed principal
ly of peach trees, all of which bore a
fine crop this year. The trees are now
seven years old and have yielded
proftably for three years. The
peaches were sold by the wagon-load
on the local market and some were
shipped to nearby points, but it was
not found necessary to ship to the
larger markets. In fact, Mr.. Meacham
found the local demand for first-class
fruit to be greater than his supply
and he is advocating orchard culture
as an opportunity for profitable diver,
