In YIELD PER ACRE Washing
tons 1919 small grain and hay crops
exceed the yields of 1918, while corn
and potatoes have slightly lower
yield than last year. It must be 70
membered. however, that 1918 was
from the standpoint of acre produc-
tlon, one of the poorest crop years in
the history of the state. Although the
1919 acre production has in most in
stances exceeded that of last year.
as compared with the average Yields
for the five-year period 1913-17, this
years production is low. Poor Yields
due to unfavorable' climatic conditions
both in 1918 and 1919 have greatly
reduced the aggregate values of crops
in the state. With the increased
acreage the past two years and with
the favorable prices for farm products
the farmers of Washington have, by
low yields, been deprived of many mil
lions of dollars. If average Yields
had prevailed this year, the Washing
ton grain crop alone would have en-
ceeded the present figures by at least
S3O,0O0.OO0.
WHEAT The combined acreage of
spring and winter wheat gives a total
of 2,440,000 acres, with a production
of 100000 bushels This acreage
i, the largest in the history of the
state, exceeding by more than 100000
acres the previous high record of ..
100000 acres grown in 1918. The dry
season seriously reduced the wheat
yield this season. the average for the
state being but 16.4 per acre. The
1918 crop averaged 13.1 bushels while
the average WELD for 1887 is 22.4
bushels per acre.
OATS: This years oat crop suf-
fered from drought. as did all other
grains Although 100000 acres (the
largest oat acreage in the states his
tory) We're harvested, the crop av-
eraged but 40 bushels per acre, Civ
ing total production of 12,S00.00O
bushels. This production has been
surpassed seven times during the past
ten years. Last years crop, from
100000 acres and averaging q bush

ROTARY SENDS
BOYS To CAMP

IL looked for awhile Thursday noon
At the clubs weekly luncheon at the
Hotel Sheldon that FL Paso Rotary
was going to change its mind about
1ppropriating s125 to send a Mexican
boy scout troop to the camp at Cloud
croft
Not that Rotary had any desire to
deny the scouts an outing or was
opposed TO spending the money. Tor
Rotary is backing the Boy Scout
movement here Il was explained, and

Julius LorenrZeu. who moved to re-
consider the action OF the club two
weeks ago when 1t voted TO recon-
slz5 be voted 70 the scout outing and
that the members be assessed 81 each
70 pay It. there was matter OF prin-
ciple involved
Urges Caution.
That was that Rotary should not
vote money too hastily for anything
until stock had been taken Of the
treasury's contents and that further
more Il was not in the boards power
TO assess members. DR.. Il l. Ramey
supported Mr. Lorentzen, but Jack
Sheehan, Ed Lachman, G. a Martin,
Dr. Fuller Swift and several others
declared in favor OF digging down
after the money
Claiborne Adams moved that every
thing up to now be forgotten and
that everybody pay the dollar and
forget IL. With a Whoop and a stand
ing vote lIr. Adams's motion went
over. Rabbi Martin Zielonka made
the suggestion that IL was a good
idea for the board Of directors Of
any club, more especially Rotary, TO
let the members know how much
money the treasury had in it from

GEORGIA is . wonderful state, in
u the opinion OF Miss Grace Wal
lace, OF 517 Myrtle avenue. The
fact that she was born there may be
her reason for thinking So But Miss
Wallace disaErees fatty with the
Georgia legislature in its attitude
toward bathing suits.
Georgia thinks a Woman's bath
ing suit should consist OF a rain coat,
shawl and pair OF boots" Miss
Wallace said Saturday. 7 think II
should be the simplest and most ab-
breviated garment imaginable and
stil be in keeping with the moral
code"
Inasmuch as Miss Wallace is q
swimming expert she can't see much
advantage in staying in Georgia
She is in FL Paso where there is a
little more liberality in the matter
OF sea going garb.
Not long ago Miss wallace posed
with three other young women al the
chamber OF commerce for the junior
chamber. She wore the Georgia, 1850,
type Of bathing suit which revealed
little but her nose. It was later dis
covered, out at the Sunset Heights
swimming pool, that the Young Wo-
man had good reasons, several OF
them, for preferring the kind Of a
bathing suit she wears in the ac-
companying photograph She says the
suit she is wearing is Just the right
kind. She has had an offer from
Mack Sennett and may splash IN the
Pacific next summer

Another case reported by the
