The State college of Washington will teach irrigation as a special sub ject. The program for tho coming year will cover the entire subject. In cluding the building of reservoirs and ditches; the measurement and distrib ution of water; time to Irrigate and best methods of application. Prof. O. L. Waller, who has had charge of much government work In this connection, says to the Inland Farmor of Spokane: "Tho state of Washington Is now entering upon an era of agricultural settlement and development which Is destined to make It one of the fore most Irrigated commonwealths In the United States. 'Tho completion of this develop ment will Involve the expenditure of millions of dollars In canals and ditches and still a greater number of millions in leveling and grading the land for tho application of water. To tons of thousands of pcoplo who do this work the problems of Irrigation will be entirely new, and to leave them to learn alt Its lessons by experience will Involve the loss of large sums of money In mistakes and In the Inaug uration of wasteful and Improper methods of distributing water, which will tond to retard both present and prospective development of the state."

When people read about the cure made by a medicine endorsed from for awny. Is It surprising that they wonder If the statements are true? But when they read of cases right here at home, positive proof Is with in their reach, for close Investigation Is an easy mntter. Mrs. O. W. Brown, who lives at the corner of Turner and B. streets, says "I was unable to stoop without suf fering the most Intense pain across the small of my back and through my kidneys. I got my first box ot Donn's Kidney Pills at the Brock & McComas Co. drug store. I was so sore and lame that I could not stoop at the sink to wash. Doan's Kidney Pills did away with the trou hie. If I did not honestly think that Doan's Kidney Pills acted up to the representations made by them, would not set my name to an In dorsement.

OP OF R TON VAST POSSIBILITIES OK THE DESERTS OK THE WEST. I'mtcr Irrigation I lie Central Western Suite Would Support Muny Tunes Their Present Population At the Sumo Ratio of Population Now Contained In Japan, One Thousand Square Mile of tlie Central West era State Would Support 7r0,0(l(), 1)00 People. As to the greut possibilities of irri gation In the west, George II. Max well, editor of Maxwell's Talisman, Chlcugo, gives some entertaining sta tlHtlcs In the last Issue of his valua ble paper. He says: "The time will come when Irrigated agriculture In the middle west will absorb every drop of water falling within that territory. "And when the Irrigation ennuis and the irrigated farms of the middle west will dry up the Ohio ami Missis sippi rivers, just as Irrigation In the west has dried up Tulare Lake in California, and Is rapidly drying up the Great Salt Lake In 1,'tah, the Hoods of the Mississippi and Its trib utaries will be led out through a net work of canals, large and small, and stored in reservoirs and every drop devoted to beneficial use, a use that will be so valuable that Its value for navigation will count nothing in com parison. It may be a great many years be fore tbls will happen, but It Is certain to come. In no other way can the vast population with which this coun try will teem within a few hundred years be provided with the food to sustain it. Japan, from her total are of 147, 6D5 siiuare miles, of which only 19, 000 are cultivated, collected an annu ul revenue before the war with Rus sia began of 1 2 1. 1 33.725, und her ex ports amounted to $124,208,923. The average population per square mile of Japan Is 299.76, but only about one-seventh of her territory Is uetu-1 ally under cultivation. A section of our own country con tained within a square extending one thousand miles north from New Or leans ami one thousand miles west from Pittsburg and containing one million square miles. If as densely populated as Japan, would sustain a population of 30O.onn,000; hut a much larger proportion of this great square n the center of the United States could he more extensively farmed than in Japan, where only one-seventh of the total area Is cultivated. Possibilities of Future Development. On the 19,00 square miles of land in Japan that is actually farmed they sustain 30,000,000 farmers. It is u safe estimate that at least one-half of the thousand-mile square central section of the United States above de scribed could be as closely cultivated us the productive fields of Japan. Those Japanese fields sustain over fif teen hundred people to the square mile. At the same ratio of popula tion our own thousand-mile square central section would sustain 750.000. 000 of farming population alone. A population of over fifteen hun Ired to the square mile sustained by agriculture seems to the ordinary mind Incredible: but on the Island of Jersey, off the English coast, a pop ulation of over thirteen hundred to the square mile Is sustained by out- of-door agriculture in a climate by no means best adapted to Intensive farm lug." JOSEPHINE DEFKRY COMING. Throe Nights' Engagement Beginning September 3 at tho Frazcr. On Sunday.

FRED WEBER Successor to the Umatilla Implement Co. "WORST TOWN IN THE STATE.' I'm-nvlahln Reputation ICaracd by Georgetown, Washington. Georgetown, Wash., Is known as the "toughest town In the state." and the following from the Seattle Star tells how It has uchleved its reputation: Georgetown. Seattle's prosperous little suburb, boasting of a popula lion of 1.000. is. according to her officials, the only city in the state without a debt. And her hope is, soon to become a part of the "Queen City." says the Seattle Star. The Georgetown council has Just appropriated $7000 with which to build a new city hall, and even with that outlay, there remains still In the city treasury a neat little nest-egg of $r000 with metre money coming in every day. Conscientious scruples, such us lie behind the perennial wave of reform In Seattle, have not stood in the way of progress In Georgetown and she has earned the "debtless distinction" by becoming what Mayor Bollinger anil Chief Delaney would call a very naughty town. The burden of furnishing running expenses for the city, has been in a very large degree lifleu from the shoulders of tax payers and saddled on the backs of gamblers, pool room keepers and saloon men. From these various sources the city derives a monthly Income of about $3,000 and secures a remarkably low tax levy. The Georgetown Gambling houses which are running full blast pay into the treasury $200 a month each or $4,800 u year. One pool room "antes up" $250 a month or $3,000 a year. There are 30 slot machines in oper atlon in the town and these are fined $10 a month each, netting $.1,000 a year. Although Georgetown is by no means short on saloons she forces each one of the 15 within her pre cincts to pungle up $450 a year, bring ing the city's total revenues pretty close to $40,000 all from other than legitimate tax resources. A better example of a single town thriving off fines and licenses could hardly be found In the country. cGorgetown, however, could not be so prosperous were It not for the fact that she Is a suburb, and ran take ad vantage of that fact to accommodate the gamblers that are sporadically driven out of Seattle. Her tax levy Is very low. Her cit izens ore fond of telling the story of John Minos, a pioneer owning a tract (.f 160 acres in what should properly he a part of George town. Hlncs re fused to allow his property to he tak en In to Georgetown when the city was incorporated, and as a result It Is said he paid last year a lax rate 4 mills higher than the Georgetown property owners did. luiMrtant to NcvHnicrs. Washington, D. C, Sept. 1. Two Important new rules of the postofflce department go Into effect today. One of them Is of particular Importance 40 newspapers, while the other prin- That New Wagon You Are clpally affects trade magazines and advertising periodicals. Under the first rule the postofflce department will refuse to transmit at newspaper rate any calendars, sheet musle, pat terns, blocks of postcards, cut-out ani mal pictures, cardboard spectacles. disks of soluble paint, outline draw ings, etc., but will demand regular merchandise rates for them. Under the other decision all magaxines, con taining samples of papers, Inserted In the magazines for purposes of adver tising, will have to pay fourth-class rates Instead of the cheaper second class rates. Trying to Break Auto Record. Cleveland, O., Sept 1. The auto mobile race meeting on the Glenvllle track opened today with the most flattering prospects for breaking some American, if not world's records. The entries arc numerous and Include some of the most famous machines and equally famous drivers. The most interesting event of the meeting will undoubtedly be the 1000-mile mo tor car run for record. It Is expect ed that Guy Vaughn, who holds the 1000-mile record, will be able to lower it. OlMUlng Territory 111 Toxa. Corpus Christl, Texas, Sept. 1. In accordance with n law passed by the last legislature a tract of state lands, comprising about' 10,000 square miles wus thrown open to settlement today. The greater part of the lands lie west THE GREATEST EPOCH OF MARRIAGE The first U the most crucial time. If for the first time the greatest event in your married lives is about to occur, how expectant, how wrapt up in it you rind yourselves.

The conditions existing In the territories thrown open to settlement vary considerably and, while some lands are fertile and well supplied with water, others are not very suitable for agricultural pur poses. Some of the barren districts may become available for cultivation by artificial Irrigation. Bidding for the Masonic Home. Jackson, Miss., Sept. 1.
