nslheur Butte Ditch Is to
pleted This Year.
Ontario, Or., July 9.— The Malheur
butte irrigation ditch, which was in
process of construction last fail, owing
to certain conditions was not completed
as expected, and the work suspended
for a time. A deal has just been con
summated between the Artesian Bpriugs
water and land company, which form
erly owned the reservoirs and the ditch,
and a number of substantial business
men of Weiaer Idaho, by which the
latter are to have a controlling interest
in the ditch and reservoirs.
The con
sideration is $45,000, and a perpetual
water right to 3,000 acres oi land under
the ditch.
, About 70 per cent of the work on the
ditches has been completed and the
work remaining to be done will begin
in this coming August, and will bp rap
idly pushed to completion, and the
opinion is confidently expressed that by
next spring it w ill oe in use. The es
timated cost of what remains to be done
is $30,000.
The Malheur butte ditch, when com
plete, w ill be 23 miles in length, ex
tending from near Vale to Dead Ox
Flat and covering all the territory on
the west side of the Malheur river from
Vale to and including Dead Ox Flat.
This ditch will connect by means of
Willow creek and another ditch above
\ ale 15 miles in length with three large
reservoirs which „w ill supply water
daring the entire season in which water
is needed.
These three reservoirs,
which contain about 1,600 acres of
water, have irrigation dnty of 35,000
acres when completed. They are more
than half completed, and sufficient
water is stored in this section to coyer
all the land in cultivation under the
ditch, and as the reclamation ol land
continues the reservoirs will be replet-
ed until enough water is stored to cover
the entire acreage under the ditch.
These reservoirs are natural sites, and
by the expenditure of about $15,000
have been placed in conditi'n lor use.
The water is stored in then in the » in
ter and early spring from Upper W il
low creea and a system of springs, thus
utilizing the vast quantity of water
which has formerly gone to waste and
converting thousands of teres at sage-
brash into alfalfa fields.
DIB IN TRAIN WRECK.
Twenty-Three
Nine Injured
Washington, July 9.— Twenty four
persons were killed and three injured
in a head-on collision on the Virginia
Midland division of the Southern rail
way at Rockflsh, Va., this afternoon.
The passenger train which lelt Wash
ington at 11:15 A. M. today for Atlan
ta, Ga., dashed into a local freight
which was standing on the main line
ol the road at that point, wrecking both
engines and the baggage and express
cars of the passenger train.
The bag
gage car and the second class passenger
coach immediately following it were
telescoped. The coach was occupied
mostly by colored people.
The trainmen, under a doctor’ !direc
tion, cut through the panels of the
baggage car and took out 20 ol the dead.
Probably a acore ol the Injured were
removed.
A special train which went
from here to the scene ol the wreck re
turned to the city about 8 o’clock,
bringing come of the dead and most of
the injured.
Most of Ihe immigrants were Aus
trians, and were bcund for points as far
distant as California.
The freight train was in charge of
Conductor Brubeck and Engineer Hale,
and at the time of the accident waa on
the return run from Lynchburg to
Charlottesville.
Rockfish station is
midway between these two points and
the track there ia a single one. Engin
eer Hale had orders to get out of the
way of the fast passenger train, but, for
some reason, which hns not yet l>een
explained, he had overstayed his time,
and had failed to take a siding so that
the passenger train ccnid pass.
The
trains came together with a horrible
crash, and a fearful scene of panic en
sued when the occupants of the cars re
alized what had occurred. The pas
senger tiain was made up of an ex
press car, a baggage car, two day
reaches and two Pullman cars.
Shut Down for Summer.
With few exceptions all of the log
ging camps in the Lower Columbia
river district have closed down for
a month or sir weeks. The logging
companies agreed to do this so that
the surplus of logs might become ex
hausted and the prices maintained.

No matter how pure a source of sup
ply may be at hand for watering
stock. If It is pumped into an open
trough and left exposed for any length
of time It soon becomes polluted and
unfit for the animals to drink. This
will not be the case, according to the
inventor. If the stock-watering ap
paratus here shown is put into use.
I f pure water is furnished to the tank

The wives of the farmers of Mis
souri are gettiug so industrious and
thrifty that It is tx-eoming a question
whether they or their husbands are
contributing more to the prosperity of
the State. They have stimulated the
activity o f the Missouri hen until that
valuable member of barnyard society
Is almost laying gold dollars, and now
they are making the Missouri coty ac
complish results that would have as
tounded her ancestors. Here, for in
stance, is Mrs. Anna Gowin, of Pop
lar Bluff, who, without, perhaps, being
tile champion dairy woman of the
State, Is doing an amount of business
lu this line sufficient to keep her and
her husband comfortably without oth
er resources. “ I kept account of the
milk and butter we sold last year,”
Mrs. Gowin writes to her mother, Mrs.
W. H. Boulden, of Farber, "beginning
the 1st of last May, and by the 1st
o f this month we had sold 2,190 gal
lons of milk and 1,439 pounds of but
ter. W e got 25 cents a pound for ali
the butter and 10 cents a gallon for
the milk. Charlie Davault Is always
bragging about how much the Audrain
women sell, but I don’t think any of
them can b«>at that on milk and but
ter.” Probably not. Mrs. Gowin's re
ceipts from milk and butter were
$578.75, or almost $48.25 per month.
They show how much the farmers of
Missouri have lost by not giving the
Missouri cow the chance and encour
agement she deserves.— Kansas City

with the water in the bowl and cuts
off the supply when the proper height

ways closed, exoept whe® water Is

The owner of a herd of twenty five
grade Guernseys and Jerseys In Wls
consln submits this account of the av
erage per cow: Cost of feed, $28; re
turns from creamery. $07.18; pounds
of milk, 5.809; pounds of butter, 298;
price of butter, 19.2 cent*; price of
milk, 98.4 cents; return for one dollar
la feed, $2.04; net profit of butter over
coat of feed, $29.18 per cow. Ration:
Bran and malt sprouts, six pounds;
well-eared ensilage, thirty pounds;
straw; fodder corn In fall; in sum
mer pasture only. Adding value of
skim milk makes profit $40.80 per cow
Tings the owner has netted over $1,000
for his cows. Part of the profit ia in
aklm milk at one-third to one-half cent
per quart, but worth the estimate for
making veal, pork and poultry prod
ucts. The value of feed in States fur
ther East would be $10 to $20 greater
per cow, while the price for milk aud
butter would be considerably increas
ed. The net returns would not vary
greatly. The open secret of success In
this case seems to be the fact that
every cow is a heavy yielder of rich
milk.—Massachusetts Ploughman.

Every tree In an orchard should be
washed at least twice a year with
strong soapsud*, but there will be no
necessity for scraping them. The cater
pillars should be destroyed as soon as
the nests are seen, which will end
large numbers of Insects at once. As
the Insects multiply with amazlDg ra
pidlty, the escape o f a slugle pair
means thousands next season. One of
the best assistants to the orchard Is
the little wrep. I f farmers will give
him proper protection by constructing
boxes with entrances so small that no
bird but a wren can enter, the »par-
row will be unable to drive it away.
Aa the wren Is an active and Imay
creature. It destroys a large number
of Insects in a very abort time, and,
as it increases rapidly under favor
able circumstances, may be secured
and Induced to remain fti the orchard
if proper facilities are afforded for
their protection and accommodation.—

As fruit growers become more fam il

they more fully appreciate Its value,
although experiments during the past

The lime should be
