upon DR.. Ira D. Cardiff, director OF
the experiment station, to organize
the new Office of markets and super
wise it's work. The utilization of this
new Office with the experiment station
will have the result Of closely co-or-
dinating the problems Of agricultural
production with those Of distribution
and marketing. slgas Il.
The act carries an appropriation OF
$4,000 for the biennium which, while
small as compared to such appropria-
lions in other states, nevertheless will
allow the state to make beginning
in this line and effectively cooperate
with the federal marketing depart
ments and also local marketing or

wise and constructive legislation which
will doubtless have far-reaching con-
sequences in the economic develop
ment of the state.

DELINQUENT TAX LAW
Interest Rate Reduced from Is to 1870
Protection to Taxpayers

Interest Rate Reduced from Is to 1920
Protection to Taxpayers
1t is just the right time now xor the
property owners Of the state Of Wash
ington to familiarize themselves with
the provisions Of the new law gov
erning delinquent taxes which was
passed by the recent legislature. This
is taxpaying time for those who have
the money to pay cash, and those who
haven't the cash will be glad to know
that the rate of interest on delinquent
taxes has been reduced from Is to IL
per cent, and that, under the new law,
three years. taxes must be delinquent
and unpaid before property can be sold
for taxes. Meanwhile the counties
have the option of holding the certi-
ficates Of delinquency or selling them
to the spectators. IF the county don't
have to have the cash, it will benefit
by receiving the interest. When GER
tificates of delinquency are held eth ,r
by the county or in private hands, the
owner is not required to make pay
ment in full to prevent sale. Fer ex-
ample, if three. years. taxes are due
the owner can still hold title by pay
ment of one years taxes. The new
law is generally designed to lessen
speculation in certificates Of delin-
quency and to make it easier to own
property in the state. It doesn't re-
duce taxation however; that is some
thing the taxpayers will have to do
for themselves, if they ever find time
to get together on it.

NEW BULLETIN ON SPUDS
Experiment Station Offers Informa-
ton for Potato Growers

The high price Of potatoes at pres
emit has stimulated renewed interest
in their production and the acreage
of the country will doubtless increase
materially the coming season. The
yield and quality of the crop will de-
pend very largely on the character OF
the seed bed and the character and
condition of the seed. Mindful Of the
Importance of these factors, the Wash
ington experiment station at Pullman
has just issued a comprehensive bulle-
tin dealing with potato culture, potato
diseases and pests.
The first part of the bulletin is by
Professor Morris and deals with the
types of soil, preparation Of the seed
bed, selection Of seed, planting, cnl-
tivating, harvesting, etc., Of the pota-
toes.
The second part Of the bulletin is By
DR.. Head and deals with the numcr-
GUS diseases Of the potatoes and meth

SPECIAL TRAIN SOYA OIL
Cargo of 100000 Gallons Carried from
Seattle to Cincinnati bY u. p.

Cargo of 100000 Gallons Carried from
Seattle to Cincinnati by u. p.
A special train of thirty tank cars
carry 5000 gallons of Japanese soya
bean oil each, or total cargo of 240,-
900 gallons, valued at $165, 100000, has
just been dispatched from Seattle via
the Union Pacific System to Cincin-
natl to be used by Proctor & Gamble
as essential oils in the manufacture Of
soap. ~.
The use of soya bean oil in the
United States is of comparatively re-
cent origin. A small quantity was i'm
ported in 1909 for the first time. Since
then the industry has grown to a val
uation Of about $1,000, 100000 annually,
but never before in such quantities as
to require special train of specially
built tanks for transportation.
The oil is used in replacing beef and
pork fats and other forms of animal
greases which have become too ex-
pensive for such purposes. The in
dustry has grown to such an extent
that firms in the east using it have
found it necessary to station their
representatives in Seattle to handle it,
These firms include extensive paint
manufacturers who have found in this
oil valuable substitute for linseed oil
in the mixing Of paints and varnishes,
and the extent to which it is being
handled has justified the Union Pa
cific in the construction Of special tank
cars for that purpose.

NEW OPENINGS IN NAVY
Hundred Midshipmen Each Year will
Get Chance to Get Commissions

Hundred Midshipmen Each Year will
Get Chance to Get Commissions
Secretary of the Navy Daniels ex-
pressed his qualification at the pas
sage of the Naval Appropriation bill,
II. B. 20632, which was signed by the
president on March 4th before the ex-
piration Of the Gath Congress. Mr..
Daniels notes that practically no
personnel legislation is included in
this BILL" and of this says: Person
mel legislation, long needed, was en-
braced in the bill which passed the
first session of the Gath Congress. But
there is a provision in the bill which
/ regard of great importance and val
ne, authorizing the Secretary of the
Navy to appoint 100 enlisted men an
nually as midshipmen at the Naval
Academy. OF course, these enlisted
men must stand the usual examination
required of all applicants on entering
the Naval Academy. Three years ago
authority was given to so appoint 15
enlisted men annually. The first ses-
sion Of the Gath Congress increased
the number to rs and now, by the act
just approved, the number has been
raised to 100, opening more doors to
advancement, promotion and oppor-
tunity to the enlisted personnel Of the
Navy. The men who have already
entered the Naval Academy from the
ranks have demonstrated the wisdom
Of appointing men who have had act
ual experience on battleships. Aspir-
ing young men will now, in greater
numbers, enlist in the Navy because
of the larger opportunity for realizing
their hopes to becomes naval officers.
This incentive will powerfully attract
to the service many Of the most am
bilious and capable youth Of the coun-
try. I am highly gratiied that this
provision was adopted, practically
unanimously by both House and SEN
ate. It shows that the American peo-
pie have come to real appreciation
Of the character and fitness Of the
capable and aspiring young men who
enlist in the Navy"
Young men desiring further infor-
nation on this subject should call or
write to the Navy Recruiting Station,
Seattle.

new OFFICE OF
MARKETS IN STATE
Law Enacted by 1907 Legisla-
ture Provides for Director
of Farm Marketing s.,

Profitable marketing of his produce
is one of the most serious problems
confronting the American farmer to-
day. In the Northwest this problem is
especially difficult owing to the long
distance between large centers of pop
ulation and regions Of production.
The state of Washington ranks high
in the quality and quanty of its agri-
cultural products and if adequate
markets are available the agricultur-
al prosperity of the state is assured.
Mindful of this situation, the 1917
legislature wisely passed an act Gre
ating state Office Of farm markets
providing for director of markets
and assistants who shall give their
time to the investigation, encourage
ment, development and Improvement
Of marketing conditions in the state.
The bill was formulated and introduc-
ed by Senator Ralph Metcalf, of Taco
ma, one Of the foremost students q
agricultural economies in the west
today. Senator Metcalf was one Of
Washington's representatives on the
national commission on rural credit
and cooperative organization sent to
Europe four years ago and he has,
during the past two years, made a
careful study Of marketing depart
ments in the various states of this
county, embodying the results of this
work in the law recently passed.
The law provides for an investiga-
ton Of the methods of distribution,
transportation rates, methods Of re-
ducing wastes, costs Of marketing, and
is designed to assist in every way pos
sible in the Improvement Of market
ing conditions. The maintenance Of
a market news service is provided for,
as is also cooperation with the Office
Of Markets, u. s. department Of ag-
riculture, thus bringing to the as
sistance of the people Of the state the
full power of the federal and state
government in coping with this inn
portant problem. s =

Suppose the worst happened
and war would be declared against
the central powers, then the con-
sequences for our country would
be:
Great Britain's illegal sea
warfare would be approved by
the United States, since we would
be fighting side by side.
2-We would be allies of Rus
STA, Japan, Serbia, Roumania,
Italy and the different tribes of
inner Africa and Asia. A study
Of history of those peoples will
enlighten everybody.
3-The competition OF the Japs
against the white would have a
clear field not only In China, the
Pacific, but right here on the
coast as alien laws would not be
tolerated against ou- allies.
4-The U warfare of Germany
would not be stopped.
5-The testament of our great
Washington, the father of our
country, to keep out from Euro
pean muddles, would go to pieces.
6-An unheard of war tax
would be imposed on our people,
because 1t doesn't matter whatever
some editors say, the fight against
the central powers is not a child's
play, besides many other unex-
pected complications could set in
outside Mexico and Cuba.
And all this what for? Because
Wilson stood for the right of
Americans to travel on ammuni-
ton ships, armed or unarmed and
ye.p els OF contraband. Germany
gave us a lane on the sea for
American passenger ships, but we
we're not satisfied, we insisted on
our right to travel on all other
ships which as the case is, are
mostly filled with ammunition.
However, the underlying mo-
tive of our diplomatic actions is:
We want to make money and no
body has the right to interfere.
Our best customers are the allies.

profit comes from human slaugh-
ter 1t is not against international
law. But this international law
must be wrong somewhere, since
this law has been violated by all
belligerents. Why then should we
insist upon It to such an extent,
to be ready to sacrifice the life of
our whole nation?
But, dear old England is In a

Journalists landed in New York.
