SAVIDGE SEES
THE GAS WELLS
State Lahd Commissioner Makes
First Visit to Benton County
Gas and Oil Field

Clark v. Savidge, state land COM
missioner, spent Wednesday and
Thursday of this week viewing the
gas and oil field in this county. Yes
terday Mr.. Savidge visited the two
gas wells, saw the big one turned on
and lighted, and inspected the drilling
rigs that are operating in the vicinity
of the gassers. Today he went over
the upper end of the field and across
to the clay deposits on the other side
of the Columbia from White Bluffs
and Hanford.
Mr.. Savidge said that while he was
making the visit in his official capac-
fty, his coming was of no great sig
nifcance. every acre of state land
in this district is now under oil and
gas lease and I felt it my duty to in
form myself more fully as to the pres
ent stage of development and what
plans are under way for continuing
the development" said Mr.. Savidge.
Undoubtedly the field offers great
possibilities, especially in the produc-
.tion of gas. 1t seems to me that if
the Walla Walla Oil, Gas & Pipe Line
company brings in gas in their well
No. 8, this should prove the field for
gas and justify the expenditure neces-
sary to pipe the gas and otherwise
harness it for use."
Mr.. Savidge said that the excite
ment which was caused by the en-
trance of the Standard Oil compony
into the drilling game on the Olympic
peninsula had quieted down, but not
Until every acre Of state land had been
leased. Drilling difficulties have been
encountered there, he says, and pro-
gress has been slow.

here on one train at o'clock over
the Chicago Great Western from Des
Moines came so late there was not
time enough to get the parade ready.
Announcers came to the business dis

Features Animal Acts.
Animal acts hold n very large place
in the Robinson circus program and
are strongly featured, taking the
place of many of the acts usually
presented under canvas.
Chief among these, and considered
the big feature of the show are
Buchanan's troupe of seven dancing
horses. Il group of very valuable ami
mails, two of which were prize win
ners at New York and Boston horse
shows. Featured especially in this
act are Lady Virginia, a mare, and
Texas Tommy, the latter in the Tex
as reel.
Another and more unusual animal
act is Selegs polar bears, troupe OF
1--WE. These bears were for two years
in the zoo" at Lincoln Park, Chi
cago.
Other Animal Acts.
Savers trained pigs-five of 'em-is
another animal act of more than
passing notice and a troupe OF per-
forming pumas. handled by Mabel
Riccardo, was an act OF some unusual
and interesting features. Another act
or dangerous animals was a troup Of
eight lions. The bears, lions and
pumas all performed inside a steel
arena. In addition to these acts there
were several trained domestic ami
NAL acts, a number Of clowns, and
aerial stunts, but the usual equestrian
performers have no place on the bill.
An interesting bit Of the menagerie
was the baby monkey, five weeks old,
not often seen in travelling show.
Probably no part OF the circus at
tracted the attention this baby ami
NAL did.

RATS CAUSE ENORMOUS LOSS
Damage in Minnesota Estimated at
$12ooo,ooo neutrality-suspicious.
Also Spread Disease.

EntomOlOgists of the department of
agriculture of the University of Min
neSOta say that MinnesOta's financial
loss from the depredations of rats is
from $10,000,000 to $12,00O000 annual
ly. State directors of agricultural ex-
tension work have estimated the losses
in Montana at from $15,000,000 to $780,
100000; in North Dakota at $6000,000
or more; in Kansas $12,OO0.OO0; in
California S2O,OOOOOO and in Wyoming
and Nevada at from 10 to Is per cent
of the value of all crops.
'In addition to this monumental
loss of food products" says F. l..
Washburn of the division of economic
zoology, University Farm, rats spread
disease, and efforts are being made
by our state and city boards of health
to reduce the number of these dan
gerOus and destructive animals.
Every citizen of Minnesota should
feel the responsibility of doing his or
her part by making new. buildings rat
proof and by eliminating rubbish
which harbors rats, as well as by an
active campaign leading to their de-
struction both by trapping and poi
soning."

GROWING timber
WILL PAY we'll
Farmers Owning SmaH Tracts
Will Find 1t Advantageous to
Market Crops Together.
CASE IN NORTHWEST CITED
When Care Is Exercised In Selecting
and Cutting WoodIot May Be
Made Source of Income for an
Indefinite Period.

With the help of the Forest Service
and the county agent, a number of
farmers who live in Hangman Valley,
Wash, just north of the Palouse d.
vision of the st. Joe Forest, are CO
operating this year in the sale of about
800,O00,OO0 feet of timber!
Last fall the Forest Service was
requested to aid these farmers in dis
posing of a considerable amount of
timber on their claims. 1t developed
that there were approximately 200
settlers who owned about 300,00O,O00
feet of timber which they desired to
dispose of as a unit in order to attract
some company capable of handling the
entire proposition. They WERE how
ever unable to agree upon a salts
factory price. The project had been
worked up by the local county agent,
a former Forest Service man, from
whom the request for help came.
Not Needed for Crops.
The Forest Service agreed to make
an appraisal of the timber and to as
sist in drawing up contract and sale
conditions. The appraisal was made
last spring and price fixed of about
$3.50 per thousand feet. Although
the land is well adapted to agricul-
ture, it will not be possible for t.
owners to put all of it into cultivation
FOR a number Of years. Consequently
it is to their advantage to devote it
to growing timber until such time as
it is needed for raising crops. The
stand consists of yellow pine of a
good quality and contains a large
number of trees just below merchant.
able size which will make rapid
growth when the old timber is re.
moved. 1t is distinctly case where
it will pay the farmers to grow trees.
These facts were explained to the
members of the association and they
quickly saw the advantage of handling
the forest in the manner recommend
