Under taker West has sent telegram after tele gram in an effort to locate some of her people or some of her husband's people who mignt be interested in the disposition of the body, but so far he has been un successful. He has traced her husband from his former home In Kansas, and the place to which he went after his exper ience at the whipping post in Baker City, to El Paso, Texas, and there lost track of him. He telegraphed to Cecil's father at Chickashaw. Indian Territory, but re ceived neither reply nor non-delivery of message.

The difficulty encountered in locating any of the dead woman's people is that no one knows what her maiden name was. Some say it was Hayes and some say it was Mercer. The baby wnich she left is being caied for by friends, bul it is naturally supposed that the father and divorced husband or some of her relatives would like to take the child and raise it.

Elliott, drainage expert of the United States Agricultural Department, is in Yakima to examine lands that have been "taken" by alkali. He will also investigate the drain- age work that has been done in the valley. The agricultuial department is co-oper ating with communities and individuals with a view to solving the question of "alkalied" lands. Experiments were conducted hore three years ago by Mr. Elliot, and it is his purpose to cont-je them during the coming yejr. The greatest problem in the Yakima Valley is not how to gat enough water to Irrigate the land, but how' to get rid of it after it has once soaked into the ground.
