Professor Frencji Tafks at
the Dry Farming Con
vention at Pullman.
.(Special Dispatch to The Joarnel.)
Pullman, Wash.. Dec. 10. At today's
session of the dry farming convention.
Professor II. T. Frenrh of Moscow, de
livered a strong argument in favor of
winter dairying, upholding it as far
more profitable than summer dairying,
In conjunction with wheat growing.
"We have found that we can winter
twice or three times as many cows as
we can 'summer," he said. "I think
every farmer should have from 10 to 20
cows to winter, thereby making it easy
to raise winter hogs and calves.'
Professor R. K. Hystop of Moscow,
In speaking of the corn crop advised
against sending cast for sec.
"We hope that manv of tnese Idaho
hills will be sown in corn next year,
he said.
"Don't try to breed long ears; let
your corn mature with a medium sized
shank attachment, and uniform rows of
kernels well spaced. Be sure It germi
nates well and strong."
Other addresses at the morning ses
sion were given by W. T. McIXnald. W.

BakersfieJd. Cal.. Pec. 10. Hope of
saving the life of Adrian Von Plank,
the Portland, Or., actor, who was shot
by E. N. Blacker, was abandoned by
the attending physicians today. There
Is little change In Von Plank s condition
and the doctors fear he wll not rally
sufficiently to bear the strain of an
operation for the removal of the four
bullet lodged in his body.
Although he realizes his serious position-
Blacker Is happy today. After a
brief consultation with his wife last
night the prisoner forgave her unfaith
fulness and she swore future con
stancy. SPEND MONEY TO
BUY HYDRANTS ONLY
The council voted unfavorably yester
day on an ordinance releasing $42,000
in a special hydrant fund, back to the
water board to be used for other pur
poaes. The money was asked for by
the water board for the purchase of
hydrants, but these were bought with
mnnev taken from the Keneral fund.
The mayor and water board now think j
the $42,000 could be srent to more ad
vantage In the extension of mains. The
council holds that the appropriation

Cll FIGHTS WATERWAYS
Tells Rivers 'and Harbors Congress He Will Fight Their
Plans Admonishes Them to Be "Practical" and
V Says "Talk Is Cheap."'
(United Frees Leased Wire.)
Washington, Dee. 10.--"Uncle Joe"
Cannon threw cold water on the Rivers
and Harbors congress here today by
promising to oppose- the plana of the
organization and by Insisting that
"talk is cheap, but ..action Is another
thing." - v .
The .speaker, without whose aid ther.
Is little hop of gaining the appropria
tions desired, went far toward dampen
ing the ardor of the enthusiastic mem
bers of the congress. He took a posi
tion exactly, opposite that of president
Koosevelt, ' who -declared:
"If we haven't the funds to meet the
expense, let!s Issue bonds."
The grizzled veteran walked to the
front of the platform and said:
"It is pretty hard to look Into the
faces of these delegates and not say
something agreeable. In view of my
action In the next two and a half
months, 1 wouldn't be true to myself
or true (to you. If I were not candid
with you, so fr as my vote is con
cerned. .
"If we enter upon policies faster than
we are" ready for them, X would like
for some of you gentlemen to come to
my district and stump for my next elec
tion. .
"I agree that the rivers and harbors
should be sufficiently Improved, but
let's be practical. Talk is . cheap but
action is another thing. , .
"If perchance It were posstblc-r-and
It is not possible that the rivers and
harbors commission reported a bill pro
viding for issuing for 10 years, year by
year, bonds to meet the expense of
waterways improvement to the amount
of $100,000,000, I would not vote for it.
"It would be committing the country
to a policy of putting a great quantity
of ill-advised projects before congress.
"Did it ever occur to you governors
how much easier it is to secure an ap
propriation from the national treasury
than from your own state treasuries?
"I believe in conserving the national
resources," he exclaimed. Turning to
ward Secretary of the Interior Garfield
be continued:
"Garfield, the forest service expended
$4,00,000 last year, and I see they want
almost $6,000,000 this year."

CLIFFS IS GROWING
SELZ Royal Blue Shoes
Are Honestly Made
You'd be surprised to know
how many apparently good
shoes are dishonestly made
at one point or another.
Hemlock soles in place of
oak; "split" inner soles in
place ot good solid grain
leather; pieced or pasteboard
counters in place of one-piece
sole leather; cotton thread in
place of silk; lots of little
things you don't notice.
Selz shoes have none of
these frauds; they're honest
ly made, not for fear vou'll
discover the fraud, but 'because the makers think too
much of themselves.
We sell these shoes because we want that reputa
tion for ourselves; Selz shoes help make it.
