The Producers Oil company began
drilling on the Sargent ranch, close
to the discovery we'll, about two
weeks ago.
The Monarch Oil company, an en-.
terprise in which James Veatch, OF
the Chicago Milwaukee railroad, and
George F. Vanderveer. Seattle at
torney, are interested, have obtained
leases to large acreage and are
planning to begin development work.
Many other enterprises are either
building derricks or leasing lands
while still others are buying ma
chinery. The one certain thing is
that with the work that is now in
progress and contemplated, it should
soon be proved definitely whether
Washington is likely to develop into
an oil-producing state. The general
concensus of opinion among those
who are operating is that the oil is
there and that it is only question OF
time until it will be found in COM
mercial quantities.

Cordial Greeting for Wilson.
(Reardan Gazette.)

(Reardan GaZette.)
There is possibility that President
Woodrow Wilson will visit this cor
ner of the great northwest when re-
turning to the national capital from
his visit to San Francisco incident to
the opening of the Panama-Pacific
exposition. That he will make every
possible endeavor to stop in Spokane
is the belief of all who are in any
way interested in the arrangements,
for as yet the president, even while
candidate, has not more than
merely passed through going or
coming, and to show him real In
land Empire hospitality is what the
people of this great center desire, no
matter of what political faith. A
welcome awaits him that will be typ
ical of this country.

Free Seeds Once More.
yakima Republic.)

yakima RepuDllc.)
Senator PoindeXter has sent the
Republic 16 or II seeds each of sew
eral rare plants and vegetables. They
are known as the radish, the onion,
the carrot, the muskmelon and the
lettuce. A few of these seeds were
obtained in the foothills of the Hima-
layas last fall by an expedition sent
out by the Smithsonian institution.
AS is we'll known, these vegetables
are sacred among the tribesmen of
that distant country, and the seeds
were exceedingly difficult to get.
After negotiations extending over
several weeks the head man of the
country decided that Poindexter
ought to be rewarded for being the
only Progressive left on the burning
deck, and proposed to send him
bouquet of cabbage heads, but this
was not acceptable to the explorers.
They finally induced the big chief to
come through with the seeds, but be-
| fore they could get back into neutral
territory they were attacked by the
savages and all were killed except
Poindexter's private secretary. The
secretary reached Washington with
the sacred seeds after passing through
| incredible hardships, and one OF the
first things he did was to divide his
loot with the Republic. At the special
request of the senator the secretary
sent us a souvenir also in the shape
of a few lines of his handwriting in
which he used the rare and exquisite
Smith Premier characters. The SEN
ator asks us to plant these seeds and
distribute the proceeds, if any there
are, among the people of the Yakima
valley He says he understands that
Yakima people subsist mainly on
baled alfalfa, and he thinks mess or
two of these sacred vegetables would
afford a welcome change for some OF
them.

DON'T Be A CROUCH
SMILE AND WORK
THIS is REDFIELD'S NEW YEARS
MESSAGE TO BUSINESS
MEN.

Heartened by months of close study
Of the business outlook of the nation
Secretary Redfield, of the commerce
department, wrote New Years
greeting to the merchants and manu-.
facturers of the country bidding
them in characteristic language to
reach out for the prosperity he sees
within their grasp.
There is no warrant, Mr.. Redfield
declares, for gloom or despair. The
il, effects of the European war on
American enterprise are passing and
new vistas for commercial ventures
are opening with each new day. His
message follows:
"If you want prosperity, do your
share to bring it and do 1t now. Get
that addition on your shop going; il
will cost you less today than six
months hence. Is trade bit dull in
the works? Get those improvements
begun. Prices are low and likely to
rise. You've been thinking of that
contract work. Better start yourself
before things get the start on you.
Real Distress Unknown.
"This country slows down bit
now and then, but it never stops
growing and it always moves up and
not down. We don't know what it
means in most of the United States
to have real general distress.
There are lots of good American
examples of pluck. Do you remem-
Der San Francisco and Galveston and
Chicago, Boston, Charleston, Balti-
more and Dayton and many others
like them? Remember Thomas A.
Edison and lots of your fellow citi-
zens who showed pluck when things
were hard.
Nothing is the matter with man
with a crouch except an absentee
heart and missirr nerve. Cheer up,
go to work, do your level best, quit
talking misery The wars over yon-
der-they're living here. It's all
clouds there-clear day here.
Get out and sell some goods
Plant some more acres; do more
work than you planned. Talk cheer
full talk and you'll find this country
of ours pretty good place after ALL"
Trade Shows Reawakening.
To support the secretary's hopeful
views are the figures gathered by his
department as to American foreign
commerce since the outbreak of the
great war. Since August, when the
monthly trade balance of the nation
showed a deficit of nearly 100000, 900
through excess of imports over ex-
ports, the situation has been COM
pletely changed For December alone
it is estimated the export excess will
reach S1OO,O00,000 or more, with
one exception the highest mark OF
the last two years.
Since the war also los foreign
built ships, with a gross tonnage OF
373,S4O, have come under the Amer
lean flag. Additions to this are being
made every week.
