To the south of this form the gap In the massive structure where the raging river poured through with a swift ness that apparently defied control during the spring, has been spanned with solid concrete masonry since the diversion of the waters to the south side of the canyon through the sluice gate. The construction has advanced to that stake where a large body of wa ter may be impounded in the natural reservoir formed by the walls of the canyon extending several miles above the dam. due to the fact that the working tools of the university, books, apparatus, etc, have been much bettered during the summer. The library has been greatly strengthened by the addition of $10, 000 worth of new books and much new apparatus has been ordered for all departments. The biological la boratory has been almost completely remodeled and many improvements have been made In the physics la boratory.

Forest officers are to cooperate with tho stockmen In cutting out the choke cherry thickets and in some Instances the trail will be changed so as to avoid them. When the sheep enter the driveway they are hungry after a long trip over public highways, which form' almost one continuous lane between cultivat ed fields, and eat the choke cherry leaves' ravenously, though under or dinary conditions they would hardly touch them. The leaves contain prusslc acid and when an examination was made of the stomachs of several dead sheep and they were found filled with leaves the cause of death was clearly estab lished. Stockmen throughout the west are coming more fully to realize the ben efits of government corporation and range has deteriorated under unre stricted use, and the government Is makfng Investigations with a view to re-seeding with better grass and to di tect and eradicate all poisonous plHTltS. Elirlit Carloads of Feors. The Rogue River Valley Fruitgrow ers' union shipped two carloads of 1 tartlet pears yesterday, says the Med ford Tribune. J. A. Perry, manager of the union, has sent eight carloads or pears to eastern markets thus far this season, and will probably ship two more this week, which will prac tically clean up the union's Bnrtlets. In the state of Washington where beer Is still manufactured in over 300 breweries, It is doubtful if the hop prop is gathered this year. In the Yakima valley where several thou sand acres of hops are cultivated, farmers are seriously considering the matter of allowing the crop to re main on the vines. If this condition prevailed in pro hibition territory the brewers would have many reasons to give for the unprofitableness of the crop, but as Washington Is a wet state no reasons have been assigned. The Yakima Republic says of the matter: Hop growers of the Yakima valley have to determine within the next week or 10 days whether they will pick this season's crop. The outlook at present is a poor one all along the line and the hop industry, which In the pat hiis been a big thing for Yakima, Is at present enjoying dreary I prospects. Instead of 3200 acres being under cultivation In this valley this year as was the case last year, there are 1600 acres which have been brought to the picking point. This means that the community has lost the benefit of the money which would otherwise have been expended in cultivation, or at least a portion of it. Some of it has been expended In other channels. No Induct nii'iit to llano. The 1600 acres cultivate having brought their crop about up to the picking stage, and by the way, the crop Is said to be generally excellent and at least an average, if not bet ter, there Is now no Inducement to harvest. The best price offered here, which Is the only offer, the grower will not more than get his money back. The sentiment Is all knocked out of the owners of hop yards. Nothing more will be done along that line and there will be no har vesting of the crop because of recol lections of what has been produced in the way of a return in the past. Last year took the crimp out of most of the bunch and this year has ende-d the treatment. Lower Prices for Picking. ' Prices paid for picking this year will not be what they have been In oiner seasons, jast year tne price was $1 a box, and a box was pre sumed to weigh about 85 pounds of hops. This year the price will be 75 cents a box and each box will contain 100 pounds of hops before the ticket Is issued. There will be uo picking in a great many yards unless something unusual happens between this and about Sep tember 10. There Is no money avail able for tho purpose. The banks have got beyond the point when they will advance It, which Is in marked con trust with their attitude In times past. The growers for the most part have not the ready money to put to the purpose and the dealers are the last resort.

Cor. Rail road amd Willow Sts. Oakland, Aug. 29. The suffrag ettes of California hurled defiance at the delegates of the republican state convention by refusing to accept a rising vote of thanks tendered them as consolation. The business of the convention was finished at noon and the delegates were ready to adjourn when Frank Dominguez of Los Angeles moved to extend thanks to the sufferagettes, "who Inspired the delegates to acts of higher statesmanship by their presence." The delegates stood Up, doffed their hats and cheered the women, Mrs. Agnes Pease of Denver, clinching her fists walked down the aisle, shouting, "Mr. Chairman, the women refuse to accept -the thanks of this convention. You need not think you can pass us off with thanks; we are not here to please the men. We are here to get the right to take part in the govern ment. We will not give up this fight." The convention then adjourned. Cured Hay Fever and Summer Cold. A. S. Nesbaum, Batesvllle, Indiana, writes: "Last year I suffered for Jhree months with a summer cold so dis tressing that it interfered with my business. I had many of the symp toms of hay fever ,and a doctor's pre scription did not reach my case, and I took several medicines which only seemed to aggravate it. Fortunately, I Insisted upon having Foley's Honey and Tar. It quickly cured me. My wife has since used Foley's Honey and Tar with the same success. Pendleton Drug Company. The feJ ' Star ' .'
