Inquiries constantly come to the Ex-
pertinent Station as to how high lift
one can affort to pump water. The
Experiment Station has attempted to
answer these questions by the publ
cation of bulletin popular Bulletin
No. 104) which will be issued in few
days. This bulletin is the result of
years of experience in these lines by
Professor O. L. Waller, Irrigation En-
gineer of the station. Professor WALL
er explains the problem in consider
able detail and indicates in this bulle-
tin just how one may determine
whether it will pay him to pump water
for irrigation purposes. It is pointed
out that the question must be ans
wered for each individual farm or
farmer, inasmuch as a number of fac
tors-such as feet of lift, character
OF soil, rate Of evaporation, kind of
crop, size Of farm, market, ability of
the farmer, etc.,-are involved.
This bulletin will be of immense val
ue to anyone and everyone pumping
water for irrigation purposes. It may
be had for the asking from the Ex-
pertinent Station at Pullman.

JANE GREY AND DESMOND w..
ARE CO-STARS IN 'WAIFS"
First Appearance of Miss Grey under
Direction of Thomas II. Ince

First Appearance of Miss Grey under
Direction of Thomas II. Ince
Jane Grey and William Desmond,
both popular favorites of the speak
ing stage, are soon to be presented
by Thomas II. Ince as co-stars in an
original human interest drama from
the pen of j. C. Hawks, of the Ince
staff of photoplaywrights. The pro-
duction will be released as Triangle
Kay Bee feature under the title of
"Waifs."
"Waifs" is the pathetic story Of a
young Episcopal clergyman's decline
because of his inadvertant use of IL
quor, and his ultimate redemption at
the hands of girl Of the slums. Be-
ginning with the incident Of his dis
missal from the church, the story is
replete with stirring situations, until
thru his contrition, and the influence
exerted over him by whole-hearted
child of the underworld, he is restored
to the ministry.
Desmond has already been seen on
the Triangle program in the role Of
the Scoth minister in peggy" with
Billie Burke, and in Bullets and
Brown Eyes" His performance in
"Waifs" is said to equal, If not sur
pass, his previous efforts. He has in
invested the part with rare pathos in
his Interpretation Of the unfrocked
clergyman.

Use MORE COMMON
SENSE SAYS EXPERT
prof. Waller Says Good judy
ment is at Discount in Build
ing Roads in This State

Professor o. l.. Waller, head of the
nenartment of Civil Engineering, has
inst returned from an 1S00-mile au-
tomobile trip for the specific purpose
Of studying the highway situation in
Washington and Oregon.
He says that the graduates in the
course of highway engineering from
the State College of Washington this
wear were all employed before the
school closed, and he wanted to find
out at first hand, if there would be q
continued demand for well-trained
highway engineers. The trip covered
some of the best roads and pavements
in the west and some of the worst.
His observations led him to believe:
That, given plenty of money, our
engineers can produce splendid roads
and pavements; X.
That very much of the money spent
on roads in construction and main
tenance is wasted; r@ @.....t.
That plain common sense in the use
of local road materials is at a dis
count;
That every county needs men train
ed in road-building, men who know
how to get the most out Of the dollar.
This shortage Of trained road engin-
GERS is not confined to the west alone,
but is general thruout the United
States.
Eighteen state highway commission
ers report lack Of trained road en-
gineers. Sixteen hundred highway
engineers are now employed by "a
state highway commissions. Counties
and cities are employing 1000 more.
Two hundred and fifty million dol
lars are annually expended in the
United States for road construction
and maintenance.
The new Federal Good Roads Act,
appropriating $75,0OO,OOO, requiring
as much to be appropriated by the
states receiving it, will add impetus to
road building and insure the demand
for good highway engineers.
The State College of Washington,
in the Civil Engineering Department,
has educated large number Of young
men who are now employed in road
building, some of whom are leaders in
the extensive highway development
that is just now well under way.
We need more better trained men to
direct the economical expenditure Of
our road money. We must stop vast
Ing 1t, for present methods Of trans
portation will soon demand good roads
everywhere.

to the Farmer

Will it pay me to pump water for
the irrigation Of my farm? This is a
question which has confronted thous-
ads of farmers Of the Northwest.
There arc numerous farms which need
a small amount of supplementary ir-
rigation. Can this irrigation be pro-
vided by pumping from deep wells or
other sources ard farming conducted
profitably under such 9 system?
In central Washington are large
areas where only irrigation farming

If you will cover your sewing table

For short lengths or piecework, where
you don't care to bother with putting

just as you would if the ruffler were

to make a perfect goffering thread on
which the fabric may be drawn up to
any desired fullness.
When cutting garments from pat

mark plainly on each pattern the exact

Frequently by careful cutting and a
little piecing an amount Of material
less than the directions call for can be
utilized. and glance will tell just the
amount you need when you wish TO

MISS LANE HURT IN
AN. AUTO COLLISION

A serious accident was narrowly
averted Saturday when an automobile
driven by John Walker Chappell, of
Croxton, ran into a car driven by
Miss Mary Hawkes., of this city. The
accident occurred at the intersection of
Windsor avenue and Lamar street, near
the post Office. The car, heavy Max
well, driven by young Mr.. Chappell
was attempting to turn into Windsor
avenue, when it smashed into the
Studebaker driven by Miss Hawkes.,
whose car contained several young
girls, pupils of Miss Hawkes. music
school. The young ladies were part OF
the class on their way to Myrtle
Springs for a picnic.
Miss Mary Frances Lane, the young
daughter of Col. and Mrs. w T. Lane,
was the only one injured. Miss Lane
was seated on the fender of the ma
chine driven by Miss Hawkes., and her
right foot was considerably bruised.
After the accident the picknickers
went on to Myrtle to spend the day.
Mr.. Chappell and by-standers say the
brakes of the Maxwell car refused to re-
spond, the wreck being the result.
Neither car was hurt beyond re-
pair, the Croxton car suffered bent

escaped, save for blowout, which
was Immediately repaired.

BROAD WORK DONE
WITH FOUNDATION

ATLANTA, Ca, June 3.-Excellent
proof of the growing Importance and
broadening scope of the work done by
the W. G. Raoul Foundation is shown
IN the report for the month of May
Just presented to the board of trustees
OF the organization, by Executive Sec
rotary Jas P. Faulkner.
The public has had the idea to a
great extent, that the work of the
Foundation is confined strictly to the
cure and prevention of tuberculosis,
but this is not the case, as is made
clear in the report. One of the chief
aims of the Foundation is to provide a
clearing house of information on
health subjects, including every pos
sible phase upon which questions
night be asked.
A great many of the inquiries, the
report states, come from country
homes, information being sought as to
methods of exterminating flies, sew
erage disposal, plans for running wa
ter in the home; literature of Social
Hygiene, and on the evils of the ci-
garette habit, and even questions con-
corning organized play in schools Off
the physical development Of the chill
dren. All of these questions are care
fully answered by the Foundation, and
circulars and literature sent where
requested.
Another phase of the work in a
new direction, the report shows, is a
special campaign against tuberculosis
in childhood.
Lectures are being given by the ex-
ecutive secretary in all parts of the
state before Institutes, Women's Clubs,
chautauqua gatherings, on various
health subjects, thereby stimulating
community interests and creating a
demad for the information that the
Office seeks to give. The great work Of
the Raoul Foundation is made possible
through the splendid gift of captain w.
c. Raoul, the interest only being used,
supplemented by the sale of Red Cross
Christmas seals.
