One of the most interesting and vital facts in relation to western farming, brought out by Itinnldo M. Hall, in the now edition or "Oregon, Washington and Idaho," issued by the O. K. & N. Co., and the Southern Pa cific lines in Oregon, Is the compai ative cost of producing wheat In the luland Empire and in the famous Ked Illver vnlley. These two sections of tho United States are representative wheat growing districts and tho facts are gathered from farmers who are farming on land and not in books. Tho special character of the cli mate and the great diversity of indus tries that is possible on the farm In the Inland Empire, aside from the greater yield and tho reduced cost of production of wheat, make this sec tion tho most favored farming coun try In the United States today. Wherever this valuable book goes, it will attract the best and thriftiest class of people to tho West, by Its authentic and detailed array of fig ures and facts on the matchless re sources of the "Oregon country." Following are Mr. Hall's compari sons. "The cost of wheat production in the Inland Empire is relatively so much less and tho yield so far ahead of many much-advertised and boast ed sections of tho United States, that actual returns from harvest fields are ofteu discredited by those who have not visited tho region. "Under date of November S. 1902, .Mr. John Carpenter, of Forest Ulver, X. D., writes that the yield in the Ited Iliver valley for tho year 1902, was from live to 33 bushels per aero; j that the cost of raising a 35-bushel bumper crop was $7.50 per acre, and that wheat at that date was worth CO cents per bushel, which means that tho net profit from an aero on wheat land In the Ited Itlvor valloy that yielded 35 bushels in 1902, was J13.50. "In the great Inland Empire, tho cost of raising an aero of wheat ready for market in between ?." and S". Assuming that It is $7.50 per aero, which, according to Hichard AlcOahoy. of Walla Walla, authority on the subject, nover exceeds that amount, In the case of Samuel Drum heller, who, in 1902 from tho uplands of Eastern Washington, raised 10,5Co bushels from 100 acres, an average of GO bushels per acre, at tho market price, C5 cents per hushnl, moans a net protlt of $5,004, or $35.10 per aero, nearly three times tho prolit of that from an aero In tho Ited Hlver vulley. To llruco Forrcll, In tho amo county, who threshed 23,250 bushels from 120 acres, an average of 5G bushels per acio, it means a net profit of $11,902.50, or $28.25 per acre. "In Eastern Oregon and Northern Idaho, where tho cost of production Is about tho same and tho yield equally as large, similar profits are mudo. Scores of authenticated yields of from 40 to (18 IiiisIioIb por ncro could lio cited for tho Inland Empire, 1S02, und when It Is known Unit tho nvor age wheat yield of tho ontlro United States Is only about 17 bushels pur acre, tlio profit of wheat raising In Oregon, Washington mid Idaho Is readily seen. "A. H. Couloy, of th'5 arnndo Hondo valley, Kastem Oregon, threshed from his 7,000-ncre wheat Held, 1902, enough to add $100,000 to his bank account. Robert Jamleson, who has farmed near Weston, Ilmntllla coun ty, for 32 years, docs not remember when his wheat made less than 10 bushels per acre, and It has ylten averaged 05 bushels." It Is possible that tho entire cam paign In favor of tho Initiative and referendum will have to be fought over by tho friends or direct legisla tion, In this state. The enemies of the people have made a start toward the destruction of the law, and are going to use every meuns to nnnul It. It now depends upon the supreme court to say whether the wishes of the people or the politicians shall be upheld. The .Milton Irrigation district which Is to be voted upon July 21, 13 tho first district to lie formed in the state under tho law of 1895, and should be established, by all means. It is the beginning of a new era in Umatilla county and In Eastern Ore gon, and is an organized and syste matic manner of handling the subject of Irrigation in tho community. The unpleasant features accompa nying the city election In Walla Walla should drive the thought of political division in municipal cam paigns from the minds of all voters. The contest is nlways resolved Into a struggle between tho forces of right and wrong In the end, and all lovers of good government belong on one side. The Telegram asks: "Why will the negro persist in committing crimes that Invite such horrible fates?" That Is easy. Kor tho same reason that each succeeding generation of moun tain lion lies In wait on the forest path for tho defenseless deer. It Is the nnieasonlng nature or the ani mal, nud always will bo The alarming increase of suicide will drive the Insurance companies to raise rates, in self-defense. Antl- suicide provisions will bo made in 1 policies, Just as antl-soldieriug clauses are now Inserted by many of I the loading companies. EDISON'S FIRST INVENTION. A statement that has been going the rounds of tho press of the state of late, relative to tho great number of Inventions patented by Thomas A. Kdlbon makes no mention of his first labor-saving device, which, though it cost him dearly, was never sent to the patent office or placed upon the market, though It did the work for which It was designed, perfectly This Invention, forgotten by all save a fow old telegraph operators and the wizard himself, was thought out In tho days whon .Mr. Edfson earned his dally bread operating tho Hoston-Now York night wire of what is now the Western Union Tel egraph Company. Tho pay was not particularly large, but tho work was his official call and sign, it being ar dor to make sure that tho man at the Hub end of tho wire was attending to business, arranged for him to call ui) every hour after midnight, give his oflicial call and sign, being ar gued that this would keep him awake. It did keep Edison awake for a fow weeks, Then ho set about utilizing his spare time on a device which would beat the "smart ones" who ruled the Now York office. Tho result was all that could be ex pected from Mr. Edison's successes In later life. It was an arrangement of a battery with a clock and a circuit-breaking Instrument which, at tho proper tlmo, would glvo Now York tho looked-for signals. Kor weeks It was the marvel or Mr. Edison's frlemlu that ho got along witn so little sleep. Then the denouement came in tho form of a call Tor lloston from Now York with a vory important message. Though lloston had sig naled but a fow moments hefore. It was found Impossible to "raise" that city when It was necessary to send the message. Nearly an hour later tho Now York operator was pounding GRAIN-f) V J THE PURE V J GRAIN COFFEE If you uso Graln.O in place of coffee you will enjoy it just as much for It tastes tho same; yet, it is Ilka a food to tho system, dis tributing tho full substance of, tho puro grain with every drop.

Immediately tho call for Boston was renewed, when tho magic signal was again repented. All night long tho wire was wntched, ami when morning mine tho manager at Bos ton was nsked to explain tho mystery.

UNPRECEDENTED LUCK. Israel 1-ong, a prosperous young farmer of Linton, fircone county, In diana, had a remarkable run of luck Sunday and declares in tho exuber ance of his joy that ho has beaten the record of President Roosevelt as a maker of prosperity. When Mr. Long toso ho found himself tho father of a 10-pound baby boy, tho first child that had been born to him, and ho ar ranged at once to go to church twice that day In evidence of his apprecia tion or the advent or tho younger Long. Then ho went into tho meadow and round the ramlly maro fondling a colt which had arrived some time during the night. A short distance away ho saw his Jersoy cow, one of tho finest In the country, rojolclng over tho possession of a belter calf, which is oven a liner breed than its mother. Tho now arrivals were viewed with something like tho feelings with which ho had looked upon the face of tho newcomer at tho house, but as he wandered his way back to tho house he ran across the old black 1 sow, which was Intent with care fnr a litter of fine pigs. Long went to the barn to see If any thing else were to bo mined to his good fortunes for the day, and dis covered one of his guinea hens just leaving the nest with a brood of 14 I young guineas which had come out of) the shells during the night. He ro i.lll'll llll' I1H.IMU1I IE1 IU 4, IIUIIIIIUI (Ik church that day, and said: "Just to think of It!
