E YOU NOT ON rnls IMPROVED RArIwAY sr,yrcr.
In Every Department OF Freight Trar-
lie Conditions Have Improved.

washington, Oct. 1S.--Freight sta
tisdcs for July, the latest month fos
which Official figures are available
show that the railroads successful.
handled 20.2 per cent. more freigh,
that month than for the same perioC
last year.
The figures that tell the story OF
this accomplishment have just been
compiled from railroads having 220,-
O54 miles of track or approximately
80 per cent. of the entire trackage o
the United States.
In July last year these railroads
gave service equivalent to carrying
9.4SO.99S tons of freight one
mile while this year they carried S3,'
fS4.$6S,52G tons one mile, an incrcast
OF exactly 2O.2 per cent.
This great increase i'm service wa
rendered with an almost negpgibi,
increase i'm the amount of equip
mcnt used. The number of freigh
locomotives i'm service i'm July las
year. for instance. was :9,sSS, while
this year the number was 30.277, az
increase OF only 1.3 per cent. Las.
year in July there were 2,204, go
freight cars i'm service. while this
year the number was 2,25G,621, a.
increase of 2.3 per cent.
One OF the most encouraging
marks OF progress and one for which
the railroad employees are entitled {,
credit is the great reduction in thC
number OF freight cars and locomo
tives in the shop or awaiting repairs
Last year in July there were 144, AZ
freight cars under or awaiting re
pairs. while this year only 1858
were i'm that condition q decrease ot
6 per cent. Freight locomotives i.
repair or awaiting repair in July las
year amounted to AGO, i'm July thi:
year only 4.122 needed shop atten
ton. a reduction Of 7.G per cent. Las
year the July statistics showed tha
railroad locomotives ran an avcrag.
OF G4.4 miles per day, i'm July tni.
year they made GS.S rlilcs Frcigh
cars made an average OF 2G4 miles ir
July last year. this year they madc
2S.3 miles. an increase OF ~ per cent

PRUNE CROP WILL Be
LARGE
Two Orchards Alone Estimated
to Produce One Hundred
Carloads

Indications are that the Emmett
country will produce the largest anc
best prune crop in it's history. Re-
ports from every commercial orchard
are most optimistic. AS an instance
the two best-known orchards are esti-
mated to produce 100 carloads. E. K
Hayes estimates his crop at 25 car
loads. The output of the Westlake
orchard is placed at rs carloads.
Mr.. Richards expects his gross re-
turns from 120 acres of prunes to be
about $4,000, and $1,000 from his 40
acres of apples, or a total approx
mating $4,000. Of the 120 acres in
prunes, mostly of the Italian variety
35 acres are in 20-year-old trees and
50 acres are seven years old. Mr..
Richards says the 120 acres will aver
age about three-fourths of carload
per acre all the way through, or a
total of 80 carloads of prunes. The
gross return per carload is expected
to be about $500, or $45,000 from the
80 cars. Mr.. Richards has ordered
$4,000 standard prune crates, and 10
900 peach boxes for tumble pack of
prunes. Counting 1000 crates, or box
es per carload, it is seen that Mr..
Richards will ship rs carloads of
prunes. In addition, Mr.. Richards has
made arrangements with the Earl
Fruit company to dry for him many
tons of prunes at the company's drier
now being built at Meridian. This
is the first year that Mr.. Richards
40 acres of apples are in bearing. He
has ordered 5000 apple boxes for ship
ment of his fruit to the eastern mar
ket. His gross return from the apples
is expected to be about $1,000.

Price Bane Injured

Price Bane was overcome by the
heat while raking hay Sunday and fell
off the rake unconscious. When he
fell the team ran away. He was
painfully bruised on one arm and on
his body, but as no one was present
to witness what happened, how he
was injured is not known, but it is be-
lieved the wheels of the rake ran over
him. The teams arrival at the house
was the first intimation of the accident
and Mrs. Bane and son and daughter
at once went to Mr.. Bane's assistance
and gave first aid until medical at
tention could be secured. He is get
ting along nicely.

near Vancouver, Wash. Both he and
his father were employed in Canyon
canal construction work, where the
recent break in the canal occurred.
Friday, after working hours, a COM
pany of the men went to the river
opposite the camp for a swim. Young
Kleinknecht swan out into deep wat
er alone. Soon after, his companions
heard him cry for help and at once
went to his assistance, but were un-
able to save him, and he sank to rise
no more as his father stood on the
bank and watched his struggles.
Efforts to recover the body were
unavailing. Wires were stretched
across the river to catch the body,
but not until Monday morning was it
recovered. Chauncey Payne, who had
been stationed as a lookout for the
body, discovered it about half mile
from the place where the young
man was drowned The body was
brought to town and placed in Buck
NUNS undertaking parlors to await
instructions from the father who had
gone home, the day following the
drowning. The parents, brothers and
sisters arrived this morning and the
funeral was held this afternoon at 4
o'clock the services being at the
Christian church and conducted by
Rev. E. E. Coulter. Burial was III
the Emmett cemetery. The casl.et
was covered with flowers, tributes
from the Christian church Sunday
school and sympathizers. These ex-
pressions of kindness and sympathy
from strangers deeply touched the
grief stricken relatives and eased the
burden of sorrow of those whose dear
,ne had met such an untimely death.
