Ottawa, Canada, Aug. 11.—Next
month will see radical changes in the
land policy of the Canadian govern­
ment. The Oliver land act, which goes
into effect September 1, will throw
open to the public 28,000,000 acres of
rich, arable land, in the odd numbered
sections of Western Canada that are
liberally intersected by a network of
railroads, are adjacent to commercial
markets and swarming with live, hust­
ling townships, with well established
police protection, municipal govern­
ment, schools, churches and institutions
essential for agrciultural prosperity.
While the “ renter” and the man
with limited loose cash is being given
the opportunity of owning his own
farm, unlike the procedure heretofore
followed in granting free homesteads,
he is not asked to forego the advant­
ages in settled districts and to go into
the wilderness to fight the hard fights
of the pioneer. Instead of this, the
new instrument of the Canadian legis­
lature gives the enterprising man free
land situated near flourishing towns,
offering all the advantages and conve­
niences of modem life.
In order to encourage railroad build­
ing in the Dominion, the government
has given to the railroad companies*
32,000,000 acres of land during the
last few years, and as a further induce­
ment they have been left absolutely
unfettered in the choice of locality and
the time of selection, but recently were
made to select their lands. The com­
panies have taken full advantage of
this generous provision and made a
constant practice of leaving their
grants in abeyance unless, after close­
ly watching the trend of immigration
and settlement, they could make up
their minds as to what tracts of land
would best serve their interests.
Minneapolis, Aug. 10.—Incident to
a reorganization certain of the stock­
holders of the Pillsbury-Washburn
Flour Milling company Saturday peti­
tioned the Federal District court for
the appointment of receivers.
Whatever action is taken by the
court, the business will be continued.
The indebtedness of the defunct
company is set at more than $5,000,-
000, without security. The book value
of the company’s property exceeds
$15,000,000.
The total secured in­
debtedness covered by debenture bonds,
is $4,000,000, or a total indebtedness
of $9,000,000. Liquid assets are esti-
maetd at 3$,500,000, to pay $5,000,000
unsecured debts.
The company has $800,000 of its
products stored in 25 states outside of
Minnesota.
The application for receiver has cre­
ated surprise, but it is not expected
to cause any flurry.in milling or finan-
ciaEcircles. The milling interests in
Minneapolis have enjoyed an exception­
ally good year and the conditions that
affected the Pillsbury-Washburn com­
pany have been peculiacrtothat organ­
ization.
The receivers have been appointed
with full power to operate the com­
pany’s manufacturing plants and with
confident expectation that this expedi­
ent will be found only temporary and
that ample property, over and above
all debts, will be ultimately left for the
holders of shares. It is proposed to
operate the mills under receivers and
in charge of the receivers, so that labor
interests will not be seriously affected
at this time, and this is regarded as
promising good results, in view of the
very satisfactory condition everywhere
of the milling and grain business, no
other company engaged in similar lines
here being in any way involved.

Right Over Farmers.
Baker City—That the ranchers in
some portions of the North Powder
country are to suffer the loss of water
a t this important time of the year is
evident. if the order goes into effect
that was made by the North Powder
M. A M. company, which owns and
operates the flouring mill at that sta­
tion.
The company has prior water rights,
but in the past has had a surplus of
water. It was decided to divide the
water with ranchers who would put
land in cultivation, the division to
continue until any time it was found
necessary to have the whole supply for
milling purposes. Crops have been
planted and the desert soil responded
admirably to the tiller’s efforts.
Now, however, the water supply is
short, and the milling company was
forced to order all water belonging to
their water right to be turned into the
canal that feeds the mill supply.
The hardship that will be worked on
those who have spent their time and
work in cultivating lands that were
watered by the mill’s surplus will
probably be hard. According to the
opinion of many, however, there was
nothing else for the mill to do in order
to protect its business.
Portland — Oregon will have over
1,000 cars of fine apples to ship this
year, as compared with about 600 cars
last year. Crop prospects on the whole
are favorable, though some sections of
the state are doing better than others.
Hood River will have its banner crop,
though it was feared earlier in the
season that some damage had been
done. The shipments from Hood River
valley will be between 400 and 500
cars, against 200 cars in 1907. The
Grand Ronde valley is preparing to
send out 300 cars, double the number
shipped last year, while Medford grow­
ers expect to dispatch about 200 cars,
as they did last season. In the other
apple sections of the state the condi­
tions are reported as good or a little
better than they were last season,
though it is known that some varie­
ties, Baldwins especially, will run
lighter than last year fn the Willam­
ette valley, and it is also said the val­
ley Newtowns and Spitzenbergs will
not produce the 2 crop they did a year
ago. Prices that will be realized on
shipping stock will be governed by
