SURVEY DAIRY INDUSTRY

Acting Commissioner of Agricul-
ture H. T. Graves this week started
his annual survey of the dairy indus
try of the state, sending blanks to all
milk dealers and butter and cheese
manufacturers of the state on which
they will make their reports. The
survey will be for the year ending
June 80, 1915, but will not be pub
lished until the regular biennial re-
port for the biennium ending June
30, 1915.
In addition to figures showing the
total production of the various
branches of the dairy industry of the
state, the survey this year will result
in the compilation of figures showing
the average price of dairy products
to consumers and wholesalers in the
state, and the average price in vari-
Gus cities and districts, giving yalu-
able data not heretofore available.
DR.. Graves believes the Gurvey
will show that during the last year
the state, for the first time in its
history, has not imported any but
ter, and in fact no dairy product ex-
cept cheese. The state, however is
now making more of the cheese con-
sumed within its borders than it ever
did before and importations are like
ly to fall off rapidly.

MAY SEND WHEAT EAST

Olympia, Aug. 1.-THE state pub
lie service commission has notified
transcontinental lines that it will not
consider it a precedent if the rail
roads put into effect reduced rates
to Duluth and Chicago on wheat, so
that the wheat crop of the Pacific
Northwest can be routed to Liver
pool by way of New York and the At
lantic seaboard instead of by way of
Puget sound. This move is desired
or account of the anticipated short
age of vessels on Puget sound.
approximately 50,0OO,0O0 bushels
of wheat are the estimated output of
eastern Washington, eastern Ore
gOn and Idaho. The Farmers Union
OF eastern Washington, through
former Governor Miles G. Moore of
Walla Walla, took the matter up
with the state commission and that
board has replied that it will not
stand in the way of an attempt to
divert the crop eastward.
At present the rates are $1.24 per
100 pounds from eastern Washing
ton to Liverpool by way of New
York, and $1.35 per 100 from east
ern Washington to Liverpool by way
of Puget sound. The rail rates from
eastern Washington to the sound are
3 cents per 100, and from eastern
Washington to New York, "a cents
per 100. This gives the eastbound
rates an advantage of Sc cents
bushel over the rates by way of Pu-
get sound, but this is not considered
by eastern Washington farmers as
sufficient to warrant the diversion
Of the crop by way of New York
without further reductions.
While granting permission to the
railroads to put into effect lower
rates, the commission believes that
the rail carriers can not control the
situation by reducing their rates.
wv oiCAi vi taiC Nlpp ny way VI IilS
Atlantic seaboard would result in
throwing 50,000,000 bushels into
channels now handling the big crop
of the middle west and would prob
ably have a tendency to longest the
Atlantic ports, according to the COM
mission.
Moreover, the commission says
large exporters are of the opinion
that there will be a sufficient num-
Der of vessels to handle the crop
from Puget sound, although the
movement, instead of being con-
fined to period of 80 days may ex-
tend over a period from six to eight
months.
While there probably will be fewer
vessels on the Pacific coast to handle
the grain crop, the same condition
will obtain on the Atlantic coast and
the present difference in charter
rates maintaining, vessels will be
more likely to endeavor to secure
cargoes on the Pacific coast than on
the Atlantic.

army to which they refer, and these are dealt with by Joffre and his staff.
 As the supreme commandant, General Joffre issues to his subordinates instruc- tions on broad free scale: that is to say, he indicates to them the general situation, the position of the enemy, the "connection" of the forces occupying the 1eighborhood, and the object to be aimed at And as these subordinates possess lis confidence and are in constant touch with him, an order dispatched from headquarters can be executed within a few minutes to any point. however distant from the front.
 The general in chief is also in continual communication with the head of the allied armies Every moment officers of the allies arrive or depart on horseback in aeroplane or motor car while every mo mont telephones telegraph, and radio graph are busy.

General Joffre quits the schcolroom for a time and takes stroll returning to the villa for nasty dinner which is frequently interrupted by the arrival or couriers and telegrams. after which he visits the office, where fresh reports and telegrams await him. His work pursues him relentlessly all day long
 At 8 o'clock he dimes. and at o'clock he retires to enjoy the well-earned re- pose which, according to orders is not to be interrupted unless urgent news from the front necessitates an immediate de- cision. .

With General Joffre

From Pearson's Weekly.
 People unacquainted with the real life
 at the front are apt to imagine the gen.
 erals headquarters as a sort of show
 place, seething with life. where brilliant
 officers and staff congregate and rush to
 and fro. Nothing could be farther from
 the truth. The headquarters of General
 Joffre for instance. comprise a tiny little
 villa, where he eats and sleeps. near a
 small schoolhouse, where his officers and
 secretaries work quietly day and night attending to the thousand and one de- tails of the campaign. This little school house is the center of an amazing web of telephone and telegraph wires and from it issues all orders to the 5000 COG of French soldiers who are fighting side by side with our own men.
 It is a prominent characteristic of Gen. eral Joffre that he will tolerate no inter- ference, as far as the exigencies of the situation allow, with the systematic per scnal habits which he has followed for many years, and to which he attributes his good health. He has always insisted on having eight hours sleep.
 The general spends little time over his daily toilet, while his breakfast is soon disposed of, and immediately afterwards he walks across to the little schoolhouse where. with his staff of officers, he care fully examines maps which are pinned on the wall showing the positions and activi- ,..s el thv aimed armies. and issues the necessary orders. Then he summons to
 him his most intimate coadjutors, the
 men who form, as 1t were. his privy
 council, and seated round a table on | rough, rush bottomed chairs they dis
 cuss the situation and the necessary ! moves to make.
 The secretaries of the stan bring to the commander in chief and his council reports, telegram messages which have arrived during the night. These are en- closed in envelopes of different colors,
 according to the various sections of the

FORTUNE OF WAR,
SAYS THE CAPTAIN
Further Than That Commander
Turner Of Lusitania Will Not
Comment on Affair.
STAYS ON BRIDGE TILL LAST

QUEENSTOWN. May Captain
Turner, commander of the Lusitania,
has refused so far to make any for
NAL statements. His first remark on
landing waa one OF quiet irony.
WELL" ne said, 1T is the fortune
OF war"
The captain secluded himself dur
ing the night in apartments over the
Town bank, but was able to be about
today in uniform. He displayed great
grief over the loss of his vessel, but
has expressed no opinion on the ac-
ton OF the Germans.
Captain Turner remained on the Lusl-
tania's bridge until the structure was
submerged, and then climbed up lad
der. as would diver from a tank. When
he reached the surface he grasped an oar
and then chair. He chung to the chair
for nearly two hours and finally when
the chair turned over ne flung up n
gold braided arm. This was seen by
member Of the crow in one OF the boats,
and thus the commander was saved He
was terribly broken down when he landed
Friday evening. but after a strong cup
of tea and short rest he seemed to
recover and appeared to be nearly nor
NAL today.
None OF the survivors had any COM
plant TO make regarding the actions OF
the crew. All agree that everything pos
sibie was done under the circumstances.
