MILLION DOLLAR CORN CROP.

Grangeville Globe: Four years
ago last spring Farmer Smith," ag-
riculturists with the O.-W r. & N
Company. was peddling about Yaki-
ma little 5-pound sacks of seed corn
and asking the farmers to expert
ment with it. Many laughed at him,
and said this wasn't a corn belt"
This year half a million bushels Of
corn matured in the Yakima valley,
and what is more, the average yield
is conservatively estimated at IS
bushels to the acre, while many
farmers report that their crops will
run 100 bushels or more to the acre.
The average crop yield in the United
States is but Is bushels per acre.
1t is hardly probable that a single
ton of this great crop viii be shipped
out of the valley; it won't appear in
the grand total of S2O,000,0OO or
perhaps S25, 100000 which will be
received for crops grown this season,
though If it did the amount would
be increased by about one million
dollars.
That million dollars. however, will
be added to the income of Yakima
farmers in profits on hogs, sheep and
cattle; in the increased returns on
hay sold which otherwise would be
fed at home, and in various other
ways, for practically all of the corn
grown here will be fed to livestock
in the form of ensilage or otherwise
Successful corn growing is but one
contribution to Yakima prosperity
but an important one: it is an exam.
pie of the transformation of the dis.
trict during the past five or six year:
from one-crop country to one of di
versitied crops and interests.
Farming as a business in the Yaki
ma valley is on a firm foundation
Farmer" Smith is one of the mer
who put it there.

America is the place. It's little
enough to ask each individual Ameri-
can to conserve what our fields pro-
duce, so our European brethren can
have plenty and keep up the fight to
save us as we'll as themselves. Save
your bit!
Your plans for dinner, Mrs House
wife. are just as important in their
way as General Haig's plans for a
night attack. Haig aims to get the
maximum of results with the mini
mum Of material. He uses plenty but
he doesn't waste any. So should you,
That's the way Haig and you and all
Of Us pulling together will win this
war.
The boy you cheered when he and
his companions marched away will
stand knee deep in trench mud: he
will face poison gas and deadly flame.
He will endure all the terrors of mod
ern battle. That's his bit. Your
bit. perhaps, is to save one slice of
bread day in order that he may not
fight in vain
And just as you say that you will
not change your style of living q
starving baby dies in France.

Miss j. \. s.. Richmond-Tin is
mineral. The principal supplies of tin
ore arc obtained from the East Indies.
in the islands OF Banca, Billion and
Sumatra, the Malay Peninsula. Austria
LA, Bolivia and Cornwall. England.
Most Of the ore from the East indies
and the Malay Peninsula is obtained by
washing alluvial graVeis. There arc
also mines in SaXony, bohemia. Rus
sia, Spain, Portugal and Japan, bit the
total output Of these countries is in
significant. The presence OF tin de-
posita in California. Texas, South Da-
kota and North Carolina has been
known for a long time, but UP to this
time there has been no mining on a.
commercial scale. A discovery Of tin
ore in the York district OF Alaska has
induced exploration in that region
and Bolivia is an important source
of tin production. The exports from
Bolivia in 1915 were estimated to be
about $4,000 tons Of tin concentrates,
all OF which was smelted abroad, since
there were no facilities for tin smcit-
ing In Bolivia. In the United States
the most promising district is along
the border of North and South Carolina,
extending from Cherokee County in the
latter State, over into Lincoln Coun-
IS, North Carolina. In addition to the
localities mentioned, tin is mined in
the Belgian Congo, and also at Rriseis,
Tasmania; at Yunnan, China: Siamcse
