MIKE RE|SENAUER
DRAGGED TO DEATH
Cotton Road Supervisor Found Dead
Near Head of SteptOe Canyon
Wednesday Afternoon

The dead body of Mike Reisenauer,
a we'll known resident of Cotton, was
found in the road near the head OF
Steptoe Canyon Wednesday after
noon at about o'clock. He was a
road foreman and had been working
the roads with a drag. 1t is sup
posed that his team became fright
ened at dead turkey by the road
side and gave a sudden start, which
threw him under the drag. He had
the reins fastened around his body
and was dragged to death. His head
and arms were uninqured but his
abdomen had been terribly cut and
the flesh on his legs torn off to the
bone. Marks in the road indicated
that he had been dragged for three
quarters of a mile. The body was
discovered at about o'clock and his
watch had stopped at 2 o'clock. The
team was found near the body.
Deceased was a pioneer of the
Cotton section and a successful
farmer. He was about 80 years OF
age and was well known, having
taken an active part in politics and
in the life of the community where
he had so long resided. He leaves a
widow and eight children.

To the Officers and Members OF
Whitman Co. Farmers Union;

To the Officers and Members of
Whitman Co. Farmers Union;
We, your committee appointed to
ascertain the relative cost of han
ding wheat, bulk and sacked, from
the threshing machine to and on
board ship, beg to report as follows:
We gathered information from
various sources and find rather
wide range of figures representing
costs, occasioned by the differences
in handling facilities and the amount
handled at any given place, so that
all average, or approximate cost COW
ering a wide range of conditions
seems to be the most reliable. The
cost of threshing depends largely up
on the amount of the operation that
is assumed by the threshing machine
man. Taking it as it is done in this
country, where all the labor of put
ting the straw from the sheaf in the
field, or the straw in the stack to
the machine by the machine man, the
cost averages about as follows:
Threshing sacked grain per bushel
of 60 lbs, 15c per bushel, including
sacks.
Threshing bulk grain per bushel of
60 lbs, 9 23c per bushel.
Delivery, based on fiye-mile haul,
sacked, 2 u C per bushel.
Delivery, based on five-mile haul,
bulk, &c per bushel.
Handling sacked grain through
warehouse, "A per bushel.
Handling bulk grain through ele-
vator, lie per bushel
Freight, based on tic per cwt.
rate, sacked, 10 1-5c per bushel.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1914-03-06

r. G. McCroskey stated that the
com mittee would be glad to receive
any figures from parties who have
had experience in handling grain in
bulk and this paper will be glad to
publish any such figures or any sug-
gestions regarding the matter.
The following resolution was
adopted:
Whereas, The Tri-State Terminal
Warehouse Co. has, during its exist
ence, been of material benefit in in
creasing the price of our grain; and
Whereas, The said company has
at the same time paid 10 per cent
per annum to the stockholders, be
sides adding $4,000 to their avail
able surplus, showing that good bust
ness practices have been introduced
into its management; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the County
Farmers Union of Whitman county.
would most earnestly recommend
that every member of the Union in
the county take stock in the Tri-
State Warehouse company, and in
addition thereto give the company all
the moral and material support by
patronizing it all that they can con-
sistently.
A resolution was adopted endors-
ing the Seven Sisters bills, which
have been formulated by the joint
legislative committee of the Farmers
Union, the Grange, and the labor or
CARNATIONS, and will be submitted to
the voters of the state for adoption
or rejection at the election next fall.
R. c. McCroskey of Garfield, j. NJ.
Reid of Pullman and Jesse A. Lock-
hart of st. John were appointed as
a committee on Telephone lines and
President O'Kelley was authorized to
appoint one additional member from
each telephone center in the county.
The purpose of the committee is to
promote the connecting of farmers
lines so that the patrons can secure
service to all parts of the county.
Pullman was selected as the meet
ing place of the next convention,
which will be held on the same date
that the Federated Comm ercial Clubs
of the county meet here. There will
be joint open meeting in the after
noon and a closed meeting of the
Union in the evening. The exact date

WILL PLANT TROUT
IN WHITMAN COUNTY
Whitman County Game Commissions
erS Secure Large Number of
Eastern Brook Trout for
This Section

One hundred and twenty-five thou
sand Eastern Brook and Silver trout
will be liberated in the streams and
lakes of Whitman county, due to
the activities of the game commits
sioners and game warden of this
county at the first annual meeting
of the Eastern Washington Associa
ton of County Game Commissioners
and Game Wardens held in Spokane
Monday and Tuesday of this week.
The entire game commission, com
posed of Jesse f. Neal of ColfaX,
Harry Austin of Pullman and G. j..
Witte of Oakesdale, were present at
the meeting as we'll as County Game
Warden Hickman of Colfax and the
interests of this county were well
looked after by the delegation.
The association distributed one
and one-half million trout to the 20
counties represented at the meeting,
and Whitman county secured the
second largest number 5000. OF
this number 10000 Eastern Brook
trout will be planted in the streams
near Pullman; 10000 will be liber-
ated in the north fork of the Palouse
river at Palouse, Elberton and Col
fax, and $4,000 Silver Lake trout
will be planted in Rock lake in west
ern Whitman county.
The baby trout are all from the
Spokane hatchery and Commissioner
Harry Austin went to Colfax this
m orning to get the 10000 allotted
to Pullman. OF these 900 will be
planted on Union Flat in a small
stream on the Frank Paullus place
which is fed by a spring. They will
remain in this stream about year
and will then be liberated in Union
Flat creek. Five thousand will be
placed in a small stream on the w.
" Robertson place, and as soon as
they are large enough to protect
themselves from the larger fish will
be liberated in the South Palouse
river.
Another important movement in
augurated by the Whitman county
commissioners at the meeting was
the introduction of Hungarian part
ridge in this county. These birds,
which are more prolific and more
hardy than the quail, can be pur-
chased for $3.50 a pair. They will
stand weather as cold as 40 degrees
below zero and it is thought that
with 10 to Is years protection they
would become mum erous. The Hun
garian pratridges do not feed in the
grain fields, but subsist on the weed
seeds in the brushy lowlands. An
effort will be made to raise enough
money to secure at least 25 pairs of
the game birds for the vicinity Of
Pullman, and Thos. w. Savage has
the distinction of being the first do
nator to the fund, he having contrib
uted $40.
Harry Austin was honored with
the election of third vice president
of the Eastern Washington associa-
ton.
