Happenings of to Folks of Want Change in Wheat Grading Washington, D. C Officials of the Washington state department of agri culture conferred here recently with Secretary ot Agriculture Watluce In a move for an early revision by the federal department ot agriculture ot the present whout grados in the Pa cific northwest. Several objections, entirely techni cal, have been urged by wheat pro ducers in wasmngton, Oregon and Iduho against the present wheat grades. One of these Involves the present dockage for while wheat con tained in the grain and another the effect ot smut upon milling quality on the one hand and the export value on the other. It appears that Dr. H. C. Taylor, chief ot 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 ot the Washington state do partment ot 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 ot which is expected to be at Portland and another at Pendleton. Timber Lands Are Sold. Astoria. At public auction In the courthouse at Cathlamet, Wash., last week, the state ot Washington sold 3706.08 acres of timber land In the Cathlamet district. The total received for tho property was $210,243. Various tracts totaling 3466.08 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 $11,865.25. ' A short time ago the Crown-Willam ette 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. In addition the Crown Willamette company is said recently to have acquired timber lands in the townships lying directly east of the ones mentioned above. ) New Rates Suspended. Olympia. Upon protest filed by the city of Spokane against the new gas rates filed with the stato 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 three factors, comprising a minimum meter rental of $1 per month, next a demand charge of 40 cents per cubic foot maximum hourly demand 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 stated, over the old straight meter rates. 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 ot meetings in the centers ot the pro posed seven units so that February 19 will see the growers ready to do some thing.

There will be no change In the name of the mountain It the Souttle chamber of commerce can pre vent It. The chamber's traditionul policy ot silence on this delicate sub ject, somewhat Jarred a few days ago when David Whltcomb, its new prosl dunt, acted on his own Initiative, has now been completely abundoned by unanimous vote of the board ot trus tees, and the chamber Is ready for a finish fight to retain the historic name ot Mount Rainier. President Whltcomb last week sent a telegram to John F. Miller, represen tative ot this district, in which he deplored revival of the ancient con troversy over the name ot 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. Return on Apples Good, Boise. Apple growors of southwest ern Idaho did not fare so badly with crops last fall and this winter, accord ing to a statement issued by E. M.

These figures, according to Mr. Dean, show that the apple growers this season are far better oft than the grain or hay farmers. Big Wool Clip Is Sold. Baker.

Representatives of the Boston wool houses were recently in Baker, con ferred with Mr. Poolman and local sheep men and turned in their report with the subsequent acceptance by their firm.
