In brief is to lengthen Manhattan Is-
land nearly four miles by the .trection j
of sea .walls, behind which the space j
could be filled in by pumping sand
from the channel. Exactly the same
thing, as a matter of fact, has ben
accomplished on Governor's - Island,
and chimerical as the ; scheme may
sound at first hearing, there appear to
be no reasons why It should not be
carried out since the value of the mads '
land will far exceed the cost of its
creation. Of course until boring and
surveys have been made It is Impossi
ble to do more than roughly estimate
tn-. coBt of such an undertaking, but
it Is believed that It would not only
pay for itself but would leave a hand
some profit besides. As a result of hU
growing population, and the need for
.improved docking facilities, It is evi
dent that Father Knickerbocker must
soon begin to convert acqueous terri
tory Into dry land and to steal from
the domain of Father Neptune In an en
deavor to maintain the, position of New
Ydrk as the world's greatest port. f

Spokane, Wash., April 21. (Spe- !
clal) Prospcts for a record gra'n
crop In eastern Washington and Ore
gon, north and central - Idaho and
western Montana were never better at
this time of the year, according to re-
ports . from growers to the Spokane
chamber of commerce. It Is estimated
ttha the wheat crop alone will be a
matter of 50,000,000 bushels. The bur
eau of statistic of the United Slaeis
department of agrlcultureTBays in a
report that the present cond!t:,.!i o!
winter wheat In Washington and Or
egon is 9? per cent of normal, com
pared to a 10-year average of 0 for
Washington and 92for Oregon pnd an ,
average of 83.3 per tent for tba United
States. Idaho shows 98 per cent
against an average of 96. The condi
tion of the crops at the same time last
spring was 94 per cent for Washing-:
ton and 93 for Oregon, while ihs 10 t
year average of the entire country was :
86.9 per cent. As ther has been pi en-1
ty of moisture during the winter
F, E. months, the farmers say there Is every
reason to believe that the spring wheat
yield also will be a large one this season.
