Honey Producing Industry Proves a
Groat Suconss on Account of Alfal

On Extensive Scale.
(Special Correspondence.)
Hermlston. Ore., Oct. 6. Aparlsts
are rinding: that there Ib no hotter
place In the northwest for bee rais
ing and honey production than In the
Hermlston country and especially on
the lands emhraced in trie Umatilla
United States government project. In
order for the little workers to make
the best grade honey, they must have
plenty of flowers on which to work.
The many acres of fine alfalfa supply
them with the raw material and ac
cording to experts the bloom of this
plant Is the best known for produc
ing honey. Sage brush bloom also
makes an excellent quality of honey,
,but this supply Is rapidly disappear
ing before the army of new settlers
coming Into the project. It being
cleared off tr make room for more
profitable crops, ilk alfalfa and fruits.
One of the main things to be con
sidered is that the bee can be han
dled -without so much care. They
end to keep the orchards freer from
Insects and help polonize clover and
alfalfa, and therefore Increase the
yield of seed, which Is one of the
coming industries of the west Uma
tilla district, the yield being exceed
ingly heavy.
Robert E. Thorn and John Thorn
are the pioneer aparlsts of this dis
trict. Together they have something
like 350 stands of bees and from them
they will take this year elgbt tons
of high grade honey. They say that
their output could be Increased ma
terially by straining It, but so far they
bave made quite a reputation with the
fine comb honey they produce. They
are Increasing the number of stands
each year and find no trouble In get
ting a ready market for each season's
crop at a fancy price.
George A. Cressy Is a Wisconsin
man who came to the project last
spring, bringing his bees with him.
He has followed this business for
years and is thoroughly posted. On
account of the long move this spring
he did not expect a large crop of
honey, and was greatly surprised
when he found that from 70 stands
he had taken nearly 6000 pounds of
strained honey of the best quality. He
says that he can ship to the same
astern markets as he formerly did
and make more money from a stand
than he could when be was within a
few miles of the market.
Charles H. Crandall Is another man
who has quite a number of stands
and reports large yields. ,
The encouraging reports have gone
out to all parts of the country and by
next season there will be a great
many more settlers engaged In this
paying industry. Only a few days ago
word was received from a man In
Warren, Minnesota, that he was ship
ping to Hermlston and In his car
would be 100 stands of bees.
The Increase In production Is ex
plained by the extra long growing sea
son, and the fact that here three and
four crops of alfalfa can be had each
year, against two and three In other
districts. Farmers are now busy cut
ting the fourth crop and It Is a good
one.

HUGE RESERVOIR IX
THE CASCADE RANGE
North Yakima. Wash. Word has
reached this place that the reclama
tion service has decided to raise the
levee of Lake Kachess SS feet to pro
vide sufficient water for a high line
dltcb. Thirty-five feet In figures Is
one thing; thirty-five feet measured
up tho steep banks of Lake Kachess
Is quite another.
There Is already a big dam at the
end of the lake, through which the
water has been locked Into the river
as needed. Since the high walls fall
away here which elsewhere encircle
the lake, the new dam must be a gi
gantic piece of engineering, rising 60
feet and running several hundred. Be
fore construction can be done It will
be necessary to drain the lake, and
a crew of men Is now at work on this
drainage canal, wblch Is to come In
a little above the present outlet.
Lake Kachess on the crest of the
Cascade mountains, Is one of the
sources of the Yakima river. Like
Lake Keechelus, a few miles away. It
Is a natural storage basin with rock
sides running sheer Irtto the water.
Unlike Lake Keechelus, it has no
great watershed. The former receives
each year from streams and snow six
times as Ynueh water as is needed to
keep It full. While there are numer
ous mountain hrooKs lumDiing imo
Kachess and several fair sized streams
there is little surplus. Tne pian.
therefore, Is to fill up Kachess with
the surplus from Keechelus. This will
require a 60 foot dam at the foot of
the lake, toward which the reclama
tion service has already taken pre
paratory steps.
Lake Kacheas, which will be wiped
out with the high water, is an old
Hudson's Bay company post, estab
lished upon the left bank of the Nar
rows, and of which only a few fallen
logs and the stumps of trees mark the
spot. The ruins of the two log huts
show the location of the old fireplaces,
and the buildings were evidently used
until decay, by the trappers of a later
date, who are still numerous in the
hills about Kachess.

Paris. Miss M. Stoll, a Philadel
phia woman, has Just accomplished
what Is regarded by Alpinists as one
of tho most difficult climbing exploits
ever attempted.
Accompanied by a guide named
Piaz Miss Stoll made a night ascent
of the Wlnklerturm (9,185 feet), In
South Tyrol, and after reaching the
summit passed the rest of the night
in scaling two neighboring peaks.
The climbers arrived at the top of the
Wlnklerturm, which Is reached by a
succession of rocky minarets at sharp
angles, at 1 o'clock. Their lamp was
soon visible to the watchers below.
It Is said that the guide received
$5,000 as payment for making the as

London. An extraordinary situa

off the preliminary ties for the Lawn

the possession of Australasia, The
Australians expressed their willing
ness to guarantee a sum of 13,000
upward, the expenses of the English
team, provided they thoroughly ap

ing off the preliminary tie in Aus
tralia, but as soon as the Australians
were given the names of the team,
they promptly withdrew their offer.
The English team consisted of Cap
tain Dixon; Arthur Lowe, son of Sir
Francis Lowe of Birmingham, and T.
M. Mavogordoto, who is of Greek or
igin. The Australians declared that
these players are not of the first class
and are not representatives of Eng
land.
considerable indignation has been
aroused here by the apathy of the best
players, several of whom have re
fused point blank to contest the Davis
Cup. When Beals Wright was play
ing over here at Wimbledon, he cor
dially invited the English players to
visit America and play the prelimi
nary tie over there, but the question
of expense at once arose. America
must play England before meeting
Australia, and, when the American
players were invited to play off the
tie in this country they very naturally
also put forward the question of ex
pense. The British Lawn Tenns association
has, therefore, been driven to open
negotiations once more with America,
and it Is quite possible that the Eng
lish team will go to Newport and play
the preliminary tie there.
