FER SHORTAGE.
Three Days Ago There Was Water
Going to WRste--Lack OF supply
Partly Laid TO Fact That Small
Farmers Have Recommended Irri-
CATION After the Rainy Season.

The Umatllla river Is dropping rap
idly So rapidly that there is already
a shortage for irrigation purposes l..
A. Reineman, county water master,
has been going down to the west end
for the past few days and declares
that yesterday the water users were
short one hundred second feet. Three
days ago, he states, there was water
going to waste Though there Is no
doubt Of the fall OF the river. the drop
being noticeable in Pendleton, Mr.
Reineman ascribes the lack of enough
water to go around as much to the
fact that the small farmers have re-
commenced irrigating. During the
rains they did not irrigate and since
they have been busy haying until the
last day or two when they began tak'
ing out water.

WASHINGTON, June 10 -"Diversi-
fication" OF crops is one of the scien-
tific farming tenets being pounded
home today by the department Of ag-
riculture. II Is getting results, but
some of the results of the campaign
are amusing as well as gratifying. An
expert OF the department received
word from a southern farmer that he
was "diversifying' by quitting sugar
planting and using all his land instead
to raise tomatoes
The departments plan is to foster
production Of home gardens, encour-
age thrift by teaching people to can
fruit and vegetables for home USE
to have farmers grow their own hay,
peas, corn. potatoes, oats and some
cane or sorgham for syrup. and to
produce their own meat supply If pos
sible In the south the departments
experts are particularly driving in the
idea that there is almost always some
waste land which could be profitably
used to raise livestock for the family
meat supply at least

Pig clubs are a new enterprise
attaining increased success this spring

ing received daily at the agricultural
department A pig club is practi-
cally a contest of boys-and girls too
in raising pigs. Bankers are lend
ing money to the children to buy a
pig to raise.
The new movement to encourage
children to take an interest in agri-
culture generally and stock raising in
particular is said to have started in
Arkansas. 1t has attained great pro-
portions in Georgia, where pig clubs
are now operating in IA counties, var
ried on by the banks which have lent
money to purchase pure-bred pigs.
In other counties promoters of ped
igreed livestock or wealthy citizens are
advancing the money to the pig club
members.
In some places the boys and girls
who wish to buy a pig get the money
on their own individual notes. In
others the banks require endorsements
of the parents. This movement instillS
thrift and often is the beginning OF
new bank accounts. One bank at Ma

that the sentence of death imposed
upon Frank for the murder of Mary

among the grounds Sc, forth by
FRANK in his appeal for executive

is innocent Of the crime. and that the
principal evidence upon which he was
convicted was of IA questionable and
Unreliable character" His application
contains about $50 words. and he states

in the Superior Court OF Fulton County
OF murder. and | am now under sem
;ence of death pronounced on said YER
| dic'. ask that this sentence he COM
muted TO life Imprisonment upon the
following grounds:
II am absolutely innocent OF the
crime of which l was convicted. My
death would neither avense nor pun
ism the real perpetra,or. | have no
personal knowledge of the crime other
than the facts related by me in my
statement Mt the trial.
The main evidence on which | was
convicted was OF questionable and
unreliable character. My alleged guilt
has not been established beyond Il rea =
sonable doubt but, on tn. contrary.
conflict of testimony. uncertainty and
doubt still exist to every material
feature of the case made against me-
The attorneys presented with the
application copies of the brief of evil
dence introduced at Franks trial and
requested the Prison Commission to
make personal inspection of the
pencil factory where the Phacan girl
was murdered before beginning an ex-
animation of the records.
Members of the Prison Commission
stated that a hearing on the applica-
ton would not be given before the
next regular monthly meeting. which
Will be on May ?. and that il was not
unlikely that the hearing might he
deferred until the meeting beginning
the first Monday in June.
According TO the procedure in such
cases. the Prison Commission first acts
upon applications for eXecutiv" elem
ency and transmits it's reconme nda-
tons TO the Governor for final action
II is thought probable that the com
mission may not be able TO finish its
consideration of the case before Gov

application will rest with Governor
