tered into a contract by which the
state is assured of the publication of

dered. Of the reports of the Supreme
Court published by the state since

The demand for copies varies so much

of from 100 to 300 copies of other volumes.
'Arrangements have been made
whereby the state will exchange books
of which it has too many for copies of
other volumes of which It has none.
The state thereby will acquire a desir
able stock without any expenditure of
money.
'To reduce the stock of the state to
reasonable number, the Bancroft-
Whitney Company has further agreed
to print the future opinions of the
court and to exchange these new books,
book for book, for all of the old vol
umes that the state desires to exchange.

(Special.) After a day's rest at Col
fax the alfalfa speciaL In charge
of Professor Holden. continued to
spread the alfalfa gospel with re
newed vigor at Diamond and
other towns in the Palouse country.
W. R. Skey, of the O.-W. R. & N and
W. R. Baughman, of the Holden party,
spoke to the farmers on tne benefit or
alfalfa raising and the use of the rota
tion of crops. Soil was tested and the
inoculation of seed was fully explained.
Women displayed as deep interest in
the lecture as the men.
The next stop was at Endlcott Mr.
Foster, of Washington State College,
held a meeting and motored out to the
Lltzenberg farm, where he explained
alfalfa raising.
In the town a committee consisting
of Charles Merriman, chairman; M. A.
Sherman, John Eaton, P. Claveno, Bar
M.rtin on. r1 T. Wnkefleld. had
arranged for two meetings. Professor
Holden spoke at one meeting ana .

ering of pupils at the high school.
The third stop of the day was at Wi
nona, where 100 farmers and their
wives attended the meeting. Another
meeting was held at tho Winona High
School and H. L. Hindley, agricultural
journalist of Spokane, spoke to grade
schoolchildren at a third meeting.
Professor Holden, while gazing out
of the car window just before arriving
at Winona, discovered a new forage
plant. He motored back to the Smith
ranch, about seven miles northeast of
here, where the plant is raised. The
common name for this new stock fopd
is "salt bush," and at the first glance
appears to be but an ordinary weed,
but under cultivation yields abundantly.
"We have tested this salt bush at the
college numerous times," said Professor
Thom, "and have found It to contain
as much potash, lime and protein as al
falfa, and is nearly as good as alfalfa
for feeding value, but it does not pre
serve the fertility of the soil as does
alfalfa. It is rich in flavor and just
salty enough for stock. It often grows
to a height of between seven and eight
feet Salt bush seems to be well adapt
ed to this soil. The Smith ranch is
feeding 950 sheep on only 30 acres of
this plant"
Professor Holden and the photogra
phers rejoined the party at Lacrosse,
where the train stopped for two hours
and two meetings were held one at
the opera-house and at the high school.
"The soil of Eastern Washington and
fessor Thom, "it is particularly adapted
to the raising of alfalfa and corn, is
easily worked and Its wonderful
fertility will be productive for years to
come if it's properly handled through
diversification and routine."
TWO Sloe trips were maw ii
