The Lewiston Tribune says of the wheat kings of Idaho and of the wheat and harvest condition? in gen eral In that state: Daniels & Wallace, of Tammany, will enjoy the distinction this year of being the wheat kings of Idaho. They will practically complete their har vest within a week or at least by that period will have the grain either In the .stack or in the sack. Yesterday they took one of their combine and two headers out of ser vice, this fact indicating that the other combine and headers can finish the work in season. They had 4000 acres in crop and the threshers to date have turned out 3,000 sacks. Their total crop will reach between 100,000 and 120,000 bushel.". This firm Is busy hauling the grain to the warehouses but as yet have made no sales, despite the high prices. This firm owns the fine farm In Tummany known as the Dowd piace and they employ the most up- to-date methods of farming. Asotin Men Have a Pool. Seattle representatives of coast mill men arrived In the city yesterday and are now negotiating for the purchase of a pool of wheat held by farmers li the Lewiston flat section of Asotin county, this district being back of Clarkston. John M. Jones, D. Gra ham and others are in the pool. It Is stated that the negotiations be ing conducted are on the basis of 81 cents per bushel for the No. 1 grades. This condition shows that despite the gi nerally favorable condition of the market, the Lewiston region is re ceiving this year the benefit or healthy competition in which millers for the first time have aggressively entered. Statement is now made by growers from outside points that acre for acre the' Lewiston region this year easily takes first place in the production over that of any other grain district In the west.

Dig Scrap Promised In Divinity Meet ing at Ottawa. Ottawa, Ont., Aug. 27. A lively de bate between the conservatives and radicals of the Church of England In Canada will likely be precipitated at the session of the general synod to be held here next month. For some time there has been much opposition among the more orthodox churchmen to gome of the advanced teachings of clergymen and college professor. In order that the matter may be threshed out by the synod, the Rev Dr. Langtry has introduced a motion attacking the "conclusions of what Is known as the higher criticism." The "higher critics" and "modern ists" within the church will likely op pose the adoption of such a motion, and a verbal warfare may result. caught out of a thousand streams In all parts of the country where it now Is to be found in but one, and that a most remote brook, says a Wash ington Item. This rare fish has been named the Roosevelt golden trout (salmo Rooseveltll Evermann), be cause of President Roosevelt's effort to preserve It from threatened ex tinction. The Roosevelt golden trout at pres ent Is the product solely of Volcano creek, a turbulent watercourse of 15 miles In length on the slopes of Mount Whitney, California. Two years ago some of President' Roose velt's friends In California appealed to him to save from extermination this beautiful fish. Until by presi dential proclamation Mount Whitney was made a government forest re serve anglers In large numbers visited th section and Dreved upon the Roosevelt golden trout. Responding to the appeals In be half of the fish which subsequently was named for him President Roose velt ook up the matter with the Uni ted States fish commission. After re peated efforts the commission ob tained a number of the trout, which were sent to the fish cultural stations at Bozeman, Mont., and Lcadvllle, Col., for progagatlon. Encouraging news has been receiv ed from these stations to the effect that a sufficient quantity of eggs has been obtained for hatching to stock streams In different parts of the country.

That the Washington State college experiment- station has propagated new varieties of wheat which are proving of excellent quality, yield well and "are, In fact, almost Ideal wheats for this section, seems certain, says a Pullman Item. After many years of patient work, started by Professor W. J. Ppillmnn, now with the department of agriculture at Washington, D. C, and followed by his successor, as head of the college experiment sta tion, Professor E. E. Elliott, these new varieties of wheat have been perfected and are produced In suffl dent quantities to seed vast areas. Professor Elliott distributed some of the seed among a lot of the best farmers, trying to get some of It 1 every neighborhood that could reached and requesting that the grain be carefully watched and reports sent In showing what had been accom plished. These reports are coming In and almost every one shows splen did results. Hybrid Rest Wheat Grown. C. A. Price, a grain dealer of Pull man, who has a fine farm near town, said: "My hybrid wheat has yielded well and Is of excellent quality. I I believe It will prove one of the best grains ever grown here. I have been urging that not a bushel of this wheat be sold for export, but that It all be used for seed. If the Wash ington State college had accomplish ed nothing else but produce these Improved varieties of wheat It would prove a financial blessing to the state and the entire northwest" C. R. Kegley, master of the Wash ington State grange, said: "My hy brid wheat averaged a little more than 40 bushels per acre. My red Russian averaged 25 bushels. The two fields Join, the soil Is the same, the ground was cultivated In the same way, and sown at the same time, the seeder going from one field to the other, part of both being planted the same day. The hybrid wheat Is worth from to to 4 cents per bushel more than the red Rus slan. With an Increase of 40 per cent In the yield and 2 to 4 cents ad dltlonal on the price, further com ment seems unnecessary. It costs no more to raise an acre of one than of the other." Gels Applications for Seed. . A. J. D. Cornelius of Colfax writes "I am much pleased with my hybrid wheat. We have not threshed It yet, but It promises so well that I have had more than 20 applications for some of the seed.' Will let you know more when It Is threshed." J. A. Fontaine, Dayton, writes "The wheat did well this season, de spite the dry weather." J. J. Mav. Whelan. writes: "Wheat Is not yet threshed, but wc expect 40 bushels per acre. All my neighbors want seed from It." Andy Meal, near Pullman, writes "I threshed my wheat today. The nii' vnrletv. known as 'Xo. 123,' yielded 19 sacks per acre. The 40-fold grown on an adjoining .field and under exactly the same condl linn, vinlHeil 1K nacks nor acre. I am going to sow all my summer-fa! lowed land to this wheat this fall." Karl . Gerhard, Hatton, Wash, writes: "I threshed 13 sacks of wheat from one sack of seed I got from you. Owing to the hot weather and the winds It shriveled some and did not yield as well as under favorable con ditions, this being a bad year. I find It does not shell out as easy as the niri kinds and the straw is strong. Had we had normal weather condl tlons 1 am satisfied the yield would have been large. I will sell none of the wheat, as I want to sow It this fall." Sclireck Gets 10-Rnsliel Average. M. E. Schreck of La Crosse had an average of 40 bushels per acre from the hybrid wheat and Is enthusiastic over It. A report of Mr. Schreck'e yield was. published In The Spokes man-Review from La Crosse, recent iy. Theo Stlrewalt. Pullman, writes: "I sowed 40 acres of No. 123 wheat and i , rinn in cverv resDect. I am going to sow all of my land to thjs variety and the hybrid called No. 143, of which I got one sack. In the fall of 1907. I sowed this one sack on about two acres and got 38 acks of wheat from It and as fine wheat as you need to look at.

HOOD RIVER WILL TEACH HOW TO PACK APPLES Hood River comes forward with another original stunt In the fruit business, says the Hood River News- Letter. Beginning with the 14th oj September and continuing for a pe riod of one week, the Hood River Apple Growers' union will open a school In which will bo taught the sci ence of apple packing. The union has concluded to use Its spacious warcrooms on railroad row for the purpose of training all thse who desire to learn the art of packing apples for the commercial trade according to the Hood River standard. There are several differ ent styles of pack to learn; and one must also be exact on color and size. With these essentials well learned, the matter of rapidity will soon de velop itself. The apple growers are asked to furnish windfalls and culls for the purpose of demonstration In the school; and the union will provide the expert packers to Impart the ne cessary Instructions to the student packers. All who desire to be taught the ap ple packing business for this fall's rush will report to Manager Huxley and be on hand promptly at the date specified. There will be no expense to the student other than his board and lodging while In the city. The matter of packing the apple crop In Hood. River valley is becom lug to be a proposition of colossal proportions. In a year or two It will require a small army of men, women and children to harvest the rosaceous fruit and prepare It for transit. The labor of picking and 'packing Is both delightful and remunerative. It Is expected that a large class will be on hand the opening day. D. & R. G. PLANS BOND ISSUE.

The Washington Post says of the recitation. "Tho Star Spangled Ban ner," given by Charles B. Hanford, who comes to Pendleton this fall: Seldom have Washlngtonlans exhib ited greater feeling than when Charles B. Hanford, his hands dra matically uplifted, his voice vibrant with feeling, and his ryes aflame with knowledge of the potency of his words, closed his recitation of the "Star-Spangled Banner." The audi ence was upon Its feet,' hats were waved In the nlr, and a scene of patriotic bedlam ensued. Wanted, at Once. Good clean rags: market price paid. East Oregenlan office.
