THE GREATEST CROP OF WHEAT
EVER GROWN IN THIS OR ANY
OTHER COUNTRY.
CROP v 0RTH $l,000,OOO,OO0
Estimates Made BY the Department
of Agriculture Show That All
Kinds Of Crops Are Greater
Than Last Year.

Washington, D. C.-Three billion
bushels OF corn, 100000 900 bushels
of oats and 1,000,000,000 bushels of
wheat are in prospect for this years
American harvest. Record crops of
rye, white and sweet potatoes, tobac-
CO, rice and hay also are predicted for
the farmers who have planted 31O,-
SAG, 900 acres, or 100000 acres more
than last year, to their principal prod
ucts.
The wheat crop, the greatest ever
grown in any country, will be worth
more than $1,000, 100000, while the
corn crops value may reach $4,000,
0OO, 900.
Estimates of the principal crops, an
nounced today by the department OF
agriculture, based on conditions of Au
gust l, show that all crops will be
greater than last year. Interest cen
tered on wheat and corn. Both showed
improvement over July conditions
though excessive rains and colo
weather in the central states inter
fered with threshing. Oats also sui
tered in these states, but in other sec
lions the improvement more than or
set this.
Corn prospects increased almos
100, 100000 bushels, the principa
gains being Illinois 3O,OO0,000 bush
els, Kansa 34,OOO,OOO, Oklahoma &c
O0O, 900, Nebraska 100000, Iowa IA

FARMERS ASK REDUCED RATES
Would Ship Grain by Atlantic In
stead Of Sound.

The question fasking the rail-
roads to grant reduced rates to Chica-
go and Duluth from eastern Washing
ton for the purpose of enabling farm
ers to move their wheat by way OF the
Atlantic seabord to Liverpool instead
of by way of Puget sound, due to the
anticipated shortage of vessels on the
sound, has been placed before. the pub
lie service commission at Olympia.
In a lengthy communication the
public service commissions traffic
department takes up the problem, and
concludes by saying that the commits
sion will not stand in the way of Sc
curing the most advantageous rates
for eastern Washington farmers.
If the railroads will reduce their
rates on wheat to Duluth and Chicago
with q view to creating an eastbound
movement and relieving this years
situation, the commission will not In
terfere.
The commissions letter. however
deals with the attitude Of grain ex-
porters, stating that the general Inn
preston appears to be that the expor-
tation of the North Pacific coast
wheat crop by way of rail to the At
lantic seabord with the inadequate
facilities for handling the northwest
crop at Atlantic coast shipping ports
would not be advantageous.
Furthermore, the risk due to the
European war is greater on the At
lantic coast, and shortage of vessels
is now inevitable on the Atlantic
coast for similar reasons.
The estimated wheat crop of eastern
Washington, Idaho and eastern Ore.
gon is 100000 bushels.

Crashes Into Grandstand Going 100
Miles Per Hour.

Miles Per Hour.
Des Moines, Iowa.-Two deaths and
two others injured, one probably ia

tomobile derby on the new mile speed
way here Saturday afternoon.
The judges at $3.50 o'clock Sat
urday morning awarded the race to
Milford and ranked De Palma second.
Mulford's official time was announced
as three hours 81 minutes 3-5 Sec

Joe Cooper was killed during the
3Sth lap of the race, when his car lit
orally sailed over the outer edge of
the bowl as he was nearing the grand
stand and landed outside, with Coop
er and his mechanician, Louis Pelo,
pinned underneath tht wreckage.
The second accident came near the
close Of the race, when, in the 238th
lap, Billy Chambers car crashed
against the inside rail, almost opposite
the point where Cooper had met his
death. Morris Keller, Chambers
mechanician, died at the hospital at 8
o'clock. Chandler had less than an
even chance for recovery. Pelo, one of
the victims of the first accident, was
reported also to be in critical con-
dition4
Cooper's skull was crushed in the
first accident and his death was prac.
tically instantaneous.
In both accidents tire blowouts were
ascribed as the cause although in the

Washington's
Good Roads Get
More Business

The value of good roads can hardly
be estimated and the town that has
system of we'll built roads leading
rived by the increased business &C
cruing to the merchants of that town.
Viewed from this standpoint, mer-
chants should all be good roads boost
ers. The state of Washington has
taken an advanced position in the mat
ter of the construction of good roads,
and no commonwealth Of similar pop
ulation and age has established a sys-
tenn of permanent highways that near
| ly approaches that of this state.
Figures recently compiled by the
state commissioner of highways show
that in the 1O-year period elapsed
since the creation of the department.
April 1, 1905, the grand total mileage
of improved highways IN the state
reached 1,094.33 miles. The figures
show that earth" which is given as
class of road, leads in the construc-
ton work with a mileage Of 444.51.
Gravel construction is second with
/
macadam, 1888 miles; concrete, $500
miles; asphalt macadam, 34.5s miles;
oil bound macadam, 29.47 miles;
brick, 1928 miles; Warrenite. 11.87
miles; bituminous macadam, 9.27
miles; plank, 5.25 miles; sheet asphalt,
397 miles. making total Of 1.O94.35
constructed by the state and counties.
i During the biennium April, 1918, to
April, 1915, the mileage of state roads
constructed by the state totaled 254
miles. The total of state roads from
April, 1905, to April, 1913, was 1915.
From April /, 1905, to April /, 1913,
the amount of state aid road construct
!, ed totaled 1873. The state aid law
was repealed in 1911 and in its place
went the permanent highway law of
1911. Whatever construction during
the period 1911 to 1913 was provided
for in the new law and for state aid
roads now completed when the law
was repealed.
:, Construction under the permanent
highway division is all done under
! county supervision, as provided by the
!. law. From April, 1911, to April, 1915,
this totaled 491.47, and gravel leads
in the class of roads constructed with
211.91 miles. Water bound macadam
was second with 122.61 miles. There
q has been no earth or plank cOnstruc-
e ton work done under the permanent
e highway division, while the state has
q used no sheet asphalt, concrete brick
l. or bituminous macadam.
t. There are pit miles of state roads
e now under construction, approximate
d ing a cost OF 100000, and 2O7 miles
d of permanent highway, being built at
a cost of $1,334,O making total
e of aga miles Of highway at cost OF
,. $2.234, 900 being built in the state OF
s. Washington. These figures include
! bridge construction, though mainte
nance cost of roads or those roads
