port Of the study of logged-off up
lands of Western Washington, made
by the experiment station of the State
College, and the u. s. Department;
of Agriculture, cooperating the
past three years, has just issued from
the station press as Department Bulle
tin No. 1886.
Information helpful to farmers and
prospective settlers on such lands was
the aim Of the study. Clearing met,
DDS and costs, farm organizations and
management, progress made by SET
tiers, principles that should be follow
ed by settlers, and how to increas.
profits on well-establlshed farms, are
some Of the points discussed by the
authors. They are e. g. Johnson, for
merly Of the farm management staff

cultural economist of the United
States Department, and e. d. Strait
who has a similar title in the govern
ment service.

upon at that conference. The resolu.

shore establishments, especially 90
Puget Sound, in condition properly
to care for the fleet and It's failure to
provide an aviation base in the North
west.
Another resolution asked improve
ments at the Walla Walla, Tacoma

ious points for the treatment of acute

established hospitals would be impos-
sible or more expensive.

Can Yakima Canutt, world cham.
pion allaround cowboy, and holder of
the coveted Roosevelt Hotel Trophy,
again overcome the 30-point handicap
for it's possession he successfully
fought off last year and again win his
title? Yak's going to be at the IA
nous Pendleton Roundup which opens
September Is to try hard, and ar
rayed against him will be the best
top-hands in the business.
What the Pulitzer and Gordon-Ben
nett trophies are to the air, the Davis
cup is to tennis, or the Upton cup is
to the water, so is the Roosevelt Ho
tel Trophy to cowboy sports Its pos
SCISSOR is a real he-champion, in per-
haps the hardest competition in any
sport. The trophy is awarded on a
point basis for broncho riding, bull
logging steer roping, and wild horss
racing, and'to win the trophy or any
points toward its coveted possession,
cowboy must enter and qualify in
Two or more of the major events be-
sides the wild horse race.
Its points are awarded on the final
decisions of the contest judges, 12O
points for broncho busting, 100 points
for steer roping, 100 points for bull
logging, and 48 points total in the
wild horse race, the latter being di
yided into day-points aggregating 16
per day at Pendleton. There are sec
onds and thirds in all events also.
Yakima, called the broadway cow
boy" and other unkind appellations
at Pendleton last year, will be there
at the Roundup under exactly the
handicap he faced last year, when he
went in 30 points behind Hugh Strick-
and, who had rolled up total of 270
points. Yak had but 240. This year,
Yak has but 80 points toward the tro-
)hy, while Paddy Ryan of the Elmer
lid Isle and Miles City, Mont, has
l2O to his credit. Should Ryan ap.
,ear at Pendleton and win some ma
Jer event, the champion would have
20 look we'll to his laurels to stay In
he running.
But the contest is not limited to

Origin of Sheep

Sheep are somewhat Of puzzle to
naturalists. What race brought them
from their wild roamings to serve
man is not known, says Nature Maya
zine. Perhaps they were the first of
the animals to be domesticated. The
wild sheep Of today have much hair
and scant wool. There are more than
200 different kinds Of domestic sheep
and the wool buyer knows more than
900 grades Of wool.

County Fair Prizes
For Pioneer Stories

A new sort of exhibit is to be made

such as when Grandfather Broke
Sod" or 1.-THE First School In Our
District" They will be written by
boys and girls of the grade and high
schools, judged by the teachers, and

| these two. A few of the boys like
Hugh Strickland, Ray Bell, Phil Yo
der Slim Prudential, Scout Maisch,
Dave Whyte and other well-known
contestants, will all be there to make
the game interesting. These are a
few of the men who are qualified in
the trophy contest, but who have fail
ed thus far to secure points toward
Its ownership. Out Of 2O4 confess
ants entered at Cheyenne Frontier
days, where the first half of the CON
test is run off, and where Bryan AMI
Canutt scored their points for this
years championship, there were but
IA who qualified as possible champion

Yakima is working in Hollywood al
the present time on Western feat
ure film called "Ridin' Mad" He left
this to defend his title and trophy at
Cheyenne, and will leave it again to
appear in the contest arena at Pen
dleton. Yak Is one movie cowboy
who Is very real.
He demonstrated this when the
grandstands were hooting him at Pen
dleton for alleged completely in an
Infamous, as the Western range
thought it, championship frameup in
which the luckless cowboy was vic
timlzed by New York press agent.
Yak, however, overcame all these han
dicaps, and was literally forced to
win. And in final ride that will
long be remembered by all who saw
it, when the last rays of setting sui
stained the hills and the four-legged
devil he bestrode in the nightmarish
colors Of dreams, Yak rode "U-Teli-
Um," Pendleton's worst outlaw, to an
everlasting and complete finish,
cinching for himself the title Of world
champion all-around cowboy.
Can he do it again? Corral fence
gossip says he can, and Yak, in his
customary splendor Of colorful COW.
boy garb, will be in the arena at Pen
dleton when the first Let 'er Buck"
is sounded to prove to his hackers
and to the world that he is still Its
champion.
