Happenings of Importance to Folks of the Northwest Want Change in Wheat Grading Washington, D. C Officials of the Washington state department of agri culture conferred here recently with Secretary of Agriculture Wallace in a move for an early revision by the federal department of agriculture of the present wheat grades in the Pa cific northwest. Several objections, entirely techni cal, have been urged by wheat pro ducers in wasmngton, Oregon and Idaho against the present wheat grades. One of these involves the present dockage for white wheat con tained in the grain and another the effect of smut upon milling quality on the one hand and the export value on the other. It appears that Dr. H. C. Taylor, chief of the bureau of agri cultural economics, while in the Pa cific northwest some months ago promised a field investigation of the grading question, but it was only with in the last few days that any an nouncement was made of the purpose to send investigators into that field to conduct hearings. It is now understood that Lloyds Tenny, assistant chief of the bureau of agricultural economics, who has but recently returned from a several months' stay in Europe, where he studied the markets for American products, will head the Pacific north west investigation. The present programme, at least if officials of the Washington state de partment of agriculture have their way about it, is for hearings to be held at Spokane and Walla Walla, which are wheat-growing and marketing cen ters, and at Seattle, which is import ant as an export shipping point. Three or four hearings in Oregon are pro posed, one of which is expected to be at Portland and another at Pendleton. Seattle Votes for Mt. Rainier Seattle. There will be no change in the name of the mountain if the Seattle chamber of commerce can pre vent it. The chamber's traditional policy of silence on this delicate sub ject, somewhat jarred a few days ago when David Whitcomb, its new presi dent, acted on his own initiative, has now been completely abandoned by unanimous vote of the board of trus tees, and the chamber is ready for a finish fight to retain the historic name of Mount Rainier. President Whitcomb last week sent a telegram to John F. Miller, represen tative of this district, in which he deplored revival of the ancient con troversy over the name of the moun tain and suggested that the attention of congress and especially the efforts of this state's delegation might much better be addressed to other matters of real importance. Timber Lands Are Sold. Astoria. At public auction in the courthouse at Cathlamet, Wash., last week, the state of Washington sold 370G.08 acres of timber land in the Cathlamet district. The total received for the property was $210,243. Various tracts totaling 34CG.08 acres were pur chased by the Crown-Willamette Pa per company, the consideration being $198,377.75. Two tracts containing 240 acres were bought by W. F. McGregor of this city, who has extensive hold ings in that section, for $11,S65.25. A short time ago the Crown-Willamette Paper company purchased the Bradley Timber company's logging road, camps and timber lands in one township, as well as holdings of the Weyerhauser Timber company in an other. The state lands there have not yet been sold, 'j addition the Crown Willamette company is said recently to have acquired timber lands in the townships lying directly east of the ones mentioned above.

Return on Apples Good. Boise. Apple growers of southwest ern Idaho did not fare so badly with crops Inst fall and this winter, accord ing to a statement issued by E. M. Dean, manager of the Fruit land Grow ers' exchange, who said that apples shipped through that organization he fore November 15 returned to the grower of Jonathans an average f. o. b. price of $22.50 a ton in bulk and 75 cents for those shipped in bushel bas kets, an f. o. b. price for Rome Beau ties of $22 to $29 per ton in bulk; nn average f. o. b. price for Arkansas Blacks of $25 per ton in bulk. These figures, according to Mr. Dean, show that the apple growers this season are far better off than the grain or hay farmers. New Rates Suspended. Olympia. Upon protest filed by the city of Spokane against the new gas rates filed with the state department of public works by the Spokane Gas & Fuel company, the department has issued an order suspending the new rates for a period of 90 days after the proposed effective date of February 20. Department engineers will now make an Investigation relative to the proposed rates. The new rate as filed, instead of being a straight consumption charge, is based on threo factors, comprising a minimum meter rental of $1 per month, next a demand charge of 40 cents per cubic foot maximum hourly d'-mand a year, payable in monthly Installments, and also a gas consump tion charge on a sliding scale. This figures out a material increase, It is s'ated, over the old straight meter rates. Big Wool Clip Is Sold. Baker.- -Confirmation of the sale of GOO.OOO pounds of wool, the total crop in the hands of Baker county wool growers, to Koshland & Co., Boston, was received last week by William Poolman, prominent Baker stockman and financier. The price received by the local wool men was 40 cents a pound, with the exception of one lot that brought 42 cents. Representatives of the Boston wool houses were recently in Baker, con ferred with Mr. Poolman and local sheep men and lurried in their report with tho subsequent acceptance by their firm. The price recoived, total ling nearly $250,000, Is considered by all to bo satisfactory and will place the Baker county wool growers in ex cellent shape for the coming Beason. Setting the Table. In ancient days a man's polities often dictated his table manners. So bitter was the hatred between the Guelphs and Ghibellines of Florence thai they could not. even agree on how to set a table. Tho Guelphs placed their knives and spoons longwise on the table, the Ghibellines placed their across; the first cut their loaves of bread longwise, the second cut theirs across; they even sliced their oranges differently. Prune Growers Confer. Walla Walla. With postponement of final action on the prune marketing for two weeks, growers Interested In smoothing out the difficulties plunged in Friday and arranged a series of meetings In the centers of the pro posed seven units so that February 19 will see the growers ready to do some thing. Bitterness of the first meetings sev eral weeks ago has worn off and the growers express themselves as anxl ous to find a solution which will pre vent a repetition of last year's disaster. Pine Lumbermen Gather. Spokane. Discovery of a te w dry kiln process for seasoning lumber was announced here by Albert Hermann of Portland, Or., who told tho me.ii bers of tho Western Pine Manufaclur ers' association that it would effect a saving of approximately 20 per cent in the cost of drying their product. Walter Neils of Llbby, Mont., told of a process of injecting chemicals into the kilns to eliminate "brown stain." It was announced that pro duet ion and shipments of the associa tion set a new record during tho past year by a small margin over the pre ceding year. Explosion Causes Fire. Seattle. An explosion, believed by Enemberi of the city dry squad lo have been from a still on tho second floor, nearly wrecked a four-story building here Thursduy, Imperiled the lives of more than a score of persons In the structure and caused an estimated fire damage of $100,000. Glass In every window of the sec tion of the building where the blast occurred was blown out, littering the streets, and several windows In build ings across the way were shattered. Remnants of what was said to be a still and a truck load of bottled goods rare confiscated by fire and city of ficers and federal prohibition agent h after the fire. Nine men working on the floor dl ! rectly above tho quarters where the I explosion occurred miraculously es I caped when tint flooring but k led and splintered, One fireman wu.-, slightly hurt by flying glass. Tourists Outdo Sheep. Salem. Tourists expended approxi mately $15,000,000 in Oregon during 1923, while the sheep crop in the state returned only $5,000,000, according to J. A. Ormandy, general passenger agent for the S. P., in an address at Salem. It was estimated by Mr. Or mandy that approximately 400,000 tourists visited Oregon during the year. Mr. Ormandy said that Oregon ould make no better investment than urge the tourist to visit this section. Milling Held on Decline. Walla Walla. - The milling Industry of the northwest is on a decline and the turn has not yet come, declared Ed Leonard of the Preston Shaffer mills of Waltsburg to the Rotary club here.
