INDIANS FoRsAKE TEPEE.
Modern Bungalow Replaces Wig.
wan of Yore on Kiowa Reservation

From the Christian Science Monitor.
The tepee, traditionally symbolic of
Indian life. is fast disappearing. The
Indian is leaving the wigwan Of his
fathers in favor of the white mans
house. The picture of the Indian
brave. sitting stolidly in the entrance
to his tent, must be discarded for the
actuality. He is now much more
likely to be sitting on the porch Of a
cozy bungalow.
So reports the Department OF the
Interior and gives as an example Of
the Indians altered housing system
the situation on the Kiowa reserya-
tion near Anardarko. Okla. Here out
of 1,940 Indian families, only seventy
ave are still living In tepses. This
characterized. is q rapid one. Twen-
ty years ago practically every one OF
these Indians was living in tepees and
every one of the adults had been
reared in a tepee.
= Now they are escansed in homes
advertised by real estate companies
as modern in. every respect Many
of them, says, the Department OF the
Interior, are better than those Of their
white neiHhbors. ~, ss.ts Ss3

PACIFIC COAST HAS
LARGEST LUMBER SUPPLY

The largest remaining supply Of
softwood timber in the United States
Is In the three states of Washington,
Oregon and California, which contain
more than half of all the saw timber
in the country and more than two
thirds of the nations entire supply
Of coniferous woods, according to the
U. 8. Department Of Agriculture. In
Guiding the coastal forests Of south
ern Alaska, this Pacific Coast region
is credited with 1,214 billion board
feet, nearly half Of which is Douglas
fir, followed by Western yellow pine,
Western hemlock, the true frs OF
several species, California redwood,
spruce, Western cedar, and sugar
pine. The amount Of timber in these
three states too small for lumber

400, 100000 cords.

of these varieties. Ten rows Of the

Rows were three feet apart, and we

Scales were balanced each time be-

corn on this acre was weighed and
totaled 1920 pounds, which would
indicate that had the entire acre been
planted to this variety and had the
corn been cut and weighed promptly
yield of at least nearly 40 tons
might be expected.
"Mr. Cornell came to Washington
from New York state in 1911. He
moved to this farm in 1916. This
field was sagebrush at the time. A
crop Of turnips was grown on the
field in 1916, followed by wheat as a
nurse crop for alfalfa. Good crops
of alfalfa were obtained each year,
and an application of 1S tons of ma
nure was given the winter 1929.
The field was plowed early in the
spring of 1928 Corn was planted
May 20 or 20. Thorough cultivation
was given the field and three irriga-
tons were applied. Water was ap-
piled to every other row only, and
rows were alternated each irrigation.
At no time did the crop receive
heavy application of water.
"Mr. Cornell does not contemplate
saving seed from this silage corn,
figuring that he can best afford to
purchase the seed in Massachusetts
each year.
"In our opinion Mr.. Cornells sue
cess in growing his several crops is
result of good tillage, the keeping
of dairy COWS and hogs and the ap-
plication of manure to the land. We
feel that any of our farmers in this
valley have the same opportunity
which Mr.. Cornell has. The land
will produce the crops-good farming
is all that is needed"

WashingtonNames

Okanogan, Indian word meaning
rendezvous" was first applied to
the district about Lake Okanogan,
according to the book on Washington
Names, recently published by Prof.
Edmond S. Meany of the University
Indians of British Columbia and
Washington often gathered for the
annual potlach and to lay in sup
plies of fish and game. The name
has since been given to the river
which flows south from British Co.
lumbia to the Columbia river, and
to the county through which the
river flows. and to it's county seat.
The name has had many spellings
such as Oakinacken, Ookenaw, Okin-
inal Indian sound.
Brewster, in Okanogan county, was
named for John Bruster, the orig
inal homesteader there. Capt. Alex
ander Griggs named the place in
1896. When the postoffice was being
secured III 1895, ~. -. GllleSple, inc

Brewster instead of Bruster and it

No supply of vegetables for the ia

is an element necessary to body

NO MACHINE FIRES

NO MACHINE FIRES
IN PAST FIVE YEARS
Harvest Problem Has Been Solved
by College and Government
E. j. Doneen Of Oakesdale, Whit
man County, reports that he has had
no threshing fires in the past five
years. Many threshing machines
could have been saved this year from
smut explosions if they had been
equipped with smut fans, is the YER
dict of Mr.. Doneen.
Five years ago demonstration was
started on the threshing machine be-
longing to Mr.. Doneen, by George
L. Zundel, extension specialist in
plant disease, and the U. s. Depart
ment Of Agriculture. The machine
was equipped with smut fan, aspi-
rator and wiring system. When the
wiring system was installed the
State College made tests which
showed that 1900 volts Of static
electricity were being grounded.
Mr.. Doneen is firmly convinced
that tires are unnecessary when ma
chimes are properly equipped with

tenn. The aspirator has been i'm.
proved since 1t was first put on the
separator, and Mr.. Doneen is con.
WINGED that 1t has saved him as high
as five cents a bushel by cleaning
some of the worst crops that he had
harvested.
In explaining the operation of the
smut fan Mr.. Zundel states that 1t
is placed on the machine back Of the
cylinder and above the shakers. A
canvas pipe carries the smut and the
chaff back to the straw pile. The
fan by keeping the clouds Of black
smut from accommodating inside the
separator eliminates the chances Of
an explosion and also frees the smut
from the wheat.
The result Of the fan alone, when
working in wheat that by actual
count contained from 13 to 10 per
cent smut in the bundle, enables the
threshed grain to sell on the market
for only one per cent dockage.
