FARMERS EXPECT CHEAP GRAIN BAGS WALLA WALLA GROWER SEES STILL LOWER PRICES IX '12 OiKTation of Penitentiary Mill to Ca imclty Is Exiccted to Cause Gen eral Reduction. That grain sacks will be cheaper in the northwest next year, is the belief of the farmers of Umatilla county, and the president of the local farm ers union of Walla Walla is of the opinion that bags will be materially reduced in price In 1912. This belief is based on the proba bility of the operation of the Wash ington penitentiary jute mill at full capacity, and putting it on a business basis. If this is done, says the presi dent, bags cannot but be cheaper. "The new jute mill never has been operated," said he, "and the Jute has always been bought when prices were at the top notch. With some Judg ment used In the purchasing of the Jute, and the mill operated at full ca pacity, there would be less cost per bag, and the state could afford to sell them where the prices would make India competitors come down. "The quality of the bags could be reduced and the sacks would still answer the purpose Just as well for threshing headed grain. For use on a combine, where the bags are dump ed, it would require a good sack, of course; but even at that they could be manufactured 'at less cost than now." "The farmers are well pleased with the turn of affairs as regards the Jute mill, in the state legislature, and are of the opinion that the mill will be run again, full tilt, as the result of the work of the Investigating committee."

Xow that the basketball season at the high Bchool is about over, atten tion Is being turned to the track and already preliminary work is being done toward developing a team of polntwinners. Leroy Brelthaupt, the new instruc-ture In agriculture, who has just recently finished O. A. C., where he was prominently identified with track work, will have charge of training the material this spring and he is much pleased with the outlook. The high school has a nucleus of ola men about which to build a win ning team. The prnclpal loss is that of Kimball, who always picked up points in the sprints, Jumps and hur dles. Boylen will don his togs again this year and he Is certain of taking his events, the mile and half, In al most any interscholastlc meet In the northwest. Devlne, C. Jordan and Henderson are preparing to juggle the weights again and should take care of this department In a creditable manner. Then there tire Gordon, who is a sure point winner In the sprints, and Fee, who can be relied upon to put up a stiff contest In the polevault and jumps. A. Jordan and Strain, who were on last year'B suc cessful team, will be back In the har ness again and all these men form a very satisfactory part of a team These men are known quantities and it is the unknown that Mr. Brelt haupt Is looking for, men who have abilities which have been lying dor mant and undreamed of only await ing discovery to assert themselves. A large number of new candidates have signed up for work which Is very en couraging and from these men, some star athletes may be developed. Among the men who have signed un for work are Anderson, Brelt haupt, Beckwlth, Carroll, Chapman, Dnhlgren S. Dunlap, Ferguson, Hart- well, Hampton. Haw, Koch, McPher- son, Mentzer, McDonald, C. Owen, W, Owen, Russell, Roork, Straughn, Ter ry, Tall man and Williamson.
