Enterprise Will Give Env
f ployment to Over Forty
! . Women and Girl?. ,?
Manager 'Sloan of the Washington
Idaho Seed company has completed
arrangements for establishing a seed
pea cleaning and i grading plant in
Athena, It . will be located in- the big
warehouse building, ' adjoining the
Turn-A-Lum Lumber" yard on the
west, adjacent to the Union Pacific
tracks.' " ' ;
Workmen will begin at once to
make satisfactory alterations in the
building for early installation of the
machinery and equipment. The build
ing will be heated by steam and the
best of sanitary conditions will pre
vail. The plant will have sufficient
capacity to take care of the pea crop
produced in the Athena territory a
well as the product from the com
pany's pea acreage in the Palouse
and Bonners Ferry, Idaho, districts,
where the company has been operat
ing for some time. The Palouse and
Bonners Ferry crops will be ship
ped direct to the Athena plant for
cleaning and sorting.
Mr. Sloan informs the Pressvthat
the Athena plant will give employ
ment to over forty women and girls
through the fall and early winter
months, and he expects to have the
new enterprise in operation about
September 1.
Representatives of the Union Pa
cific were in town Monday, confer
ing with Mr. Sloan on matters per
taining to location, transportation
facilities, etc. if ;
The Washington-Idaho Seed com
pany, represented by Mr. Sloan, has
been operating successfully ' in the
Palouse country and near Bonners
Ferry, Idaho. Later operations were
extended to the; Weston neighbor,
hood where satisfactory yields were
' obtained. . This year- the company
has obtained splendid results on land )
south of Athena, where two combine
harvesters are now at work and
trucks are hauling the crop to the
Athena warehouse. u-
On the Barney Foster ranch south
of Athena, in addition to a large acre
age of peas, Mr. Sloan has given
personal attention " to experimental
growing of other seed crops which if
successful as is now probable, will
greatly augment the expansion of the
company's operations in the Athena
district.

Rankin Brothers To Go '
After Endurance Record
Portlands The three Rankin broth
ers of Portland Tex, Dud and Dick
will attempt to shatter the refueling
endurance record of 554 hours set re
cently by the Hunter brothers of Chi
cago, according to announcement
Wednesday by Tex Rankin as he stop
ped at his flying field for a few mo
ments from the Pacific Northwest
air tour.
Hopes are to start the attempt by
August 15. A Stlnson monoplane
equipped with a Wasp motor will be
used and the flight will be officially
checked by the National Aeronautics
association, represented here by Rus
sell H. Lawson. ""-h :
Rankin expressed the belief that
yvHH three men in the plane the strain
would b cut down materially and
there would be a better chance ; to
-etay up until the motor quits and
the engine is good for 4000 hours.
Arrangements for - financing the
flight were completed by Maurice L.
Smith, general manager of Jantzen
beach. .', " - ' '.1 '.:) " "' '
"Our goal is at least a month in
the air," Rankin said. "Yon see, I'm
afraid well not only have to beat the
rmord held by . the Hunter brothers
but 0M which may be set by Dale
Jackson and Forrest O'Brine of St.
Louis, who now are in the air. I look
for the St. Louis. fliers to outdo. the
Hunters."
The axect record held by the Hunt
ers is S53 hours 51 minutes and 30
seconds, or slightly oyer 23 days.
This would mean that the Rankin, if
they hopped off , August 15, would
nave to stay up until September 7 to

Possible Snake River Unit -
In Columbia Basin Scheme
There are possibilities of break
ing the Columbia River basin irriga
tion project into smaller units, ac
cording to Congressman John . W.
Summers who recently returned from
the inspection trip made over the
week-end by Dr. Elwoqd Mead, di
rector of reclamation, and his party.
This possibility was especially studied
by the group, Pr, Summers stated to
the Walla WaHa Union.
It is proposed that a dam of 30
feet be constructed five miles above
the conjunction of the Snake river
with;, the Columbia on the former
stream. This would generate enough
power to pump water on the lands of
western Walla' Walla county and the
Eureka flat district as well as to
Franklin county back of Pasco, This
would constitute a 90,000 acre pro
ject. ; Congressman ' Summers said
that he received assurances from both
Director Mead and Chief Engineer
Walter that they would consider the
possibility and worth of the project.
Dr. Summers will rejoin the Fed
eral party at Yakima.
Holding His Own
Billy Pinkerton, member of the
water committee, is having a hard
time in pumping sufficient water in
the reservoir to supply water for one
hour's daily irrigating without en
croaching upon the reserve for fire
hazard. He barely has enough to go
round as the well supplies at this
time only a three hour pumping
period and the supply from the
springs is negligent. Mr. Pinkerton

Grain Prices Soar On
Reports of Continued
Devastation By Drouth
Chicago. Something like the spirit
of Tuesday came back to the grain
pits again.
The plague of drouth in the corn
fields and rust in Canadian wheat
lands brought traders fighting for el
bow room in the board of trade pits
to bid for wheat and corn with a fer
vor not seen in months. '
Wheat, whose value had ebbed in
recent months until it sold a week
ago at 88 cents a bushel, the lowest
In 16 years, spurted up 5 to 6Vb cents
from Tuesday's close and was 12
cents above the record low. Corn kept
ahead as the pacemaker, adding 6
to 1 cents a bushel to its worth and
selling at 4 V6 cents better than
wheat. ; ; '
Frantic traders shouted themselves
hoarse trying to execute buying or
ders, with public participation in the
market doubled since Tuesday. In
the corn pit the advance was so rapid
that a cent a minute was added in one
brief interval. ' '
Wheat and corn both edged up
above the dollar' mark. September
wheat finished the day at 96 to 96
cents; December at $1.02Vi to $1.02,
March $1.07H to 1.08 and May $1.10
to $1.10. September corn ended at
$1.01 to $1.01, December 97H to
91 cents, - March 89 cents to
$1.00 and May $1,01.
The weekly crop report added only
confirmation to the calamity reports
from the corn fields.
Co-operative Buying Set
f Up is Said To be Complete
Spokane. Officials of the North
Pacific Grain Growers, Inc., said its
buying setup in the Pacific North
west as complete, with 60.0Q0 to 100,
000 bushels of wheat being purchased
each day. r ..
Later this regional cooperative of
the federal farm board organization
expects to buy an average of at least
100,000 bushels daily, they said.
A. F. Kelly, general manager, said
after a survey of his district of
Washington, Oregon and parts of
Idaho and Montana that virtually all
of the 57 local cooperatives are buy
ing actively, . estimating his -group
will handle about 30,000,000 bushels
of the Inland Empire wheat crop.
He reported some criticism of the
farm board's acreage reduction cam

were "going to cooperate."

BAILEY IS AGAINST
WATER GRABBING
Democratic Candidate For
Governor Favors Enact
ment of Measure.
Eugene. The next legislature
should enact a law withdrawing all
Oregon waters from .:aprmttn-ijWn.
and should provide for the appoint
ment of a commission having as one
of its duties the survey of the power
possibility state, with author
lty to designate the waters which
would be feasible for public develop
ment and never allow private agen
cies to obtain vested interests in
them. .' ' .', ....... ..
That was the declaration at a meet
ing of organized labor here Tuesday
night by Senator ("Big Ed") Bailey,
Democratic nominee for governor, in
outlining his position on power de
velopment in Oregon. -The'
sooner Oregon waters are with.
drawn from private exploitation, he
said, the better it will be,, for then
the public will have a chance to
check its own power assets, and pre
serve them for all time. ' t .
, "We must not allow selfish private
interests to get a strangle hold on
them," asserted the Democratic nomi
nee. "The legislature should see to
this." " v
. "Development of the Columbia
should be by the federal government,"
he said. "Costs will be large, and the
state of Oregon, even if it had the
right, would not be able to handle it
alone, Too, interstate and interna
tional problems are encountered on
the Columbia, and it presents prob
lems in the development of irrigation
and navigation, as well as power.
Good progress has been made on the
Umatilla Rapids project, and this
project should be first considered.
"Muncipal ownership and operation
of light and power plants Bhould be
encouraged wherever practicable. The
municipally owned plant here in Eu
gene is a shining example of what
such an enterprise should be."
Senator Bailey also urged adoption
of the income tax to, relieve the load
on owners, of homes and farms; a
change in the personnel of the pub
lic service commission, so ' that it
would better serve the public it was
designed to protect, and strict en
forcement of the tax uniformity and
equalization laws.
"I will strive, when governor, to ob
tain all state revenues from other
sources than homes and farms," he
said.
Electrical Disturbance
Causes Devastating Storm
The electric storm which originated
in the Blue Mountains south and east
of Athena early Monday morning
swept Into the Grangeville, Idaho,
country where it assumed proportions
of a hurricane. Here only a slight
trace of rain fell, but Walla Walla ex
perienced a heavy shower.
Farmers in a 60-square mile path
of the Camas Prairie wheat country
faced possible loss of $300,000 from
the freak storm.
Hailstones as large as walnuts,
hurricane-like wind and searing
lightning beat down wheat, knocked
a man unconscious, killed a horse and
set three fields afire,
Traveling eastward, the storm came
out of a murky sky, mixing hall
stones, wind and lightning in a fur
ious onslaught. Windows in houses
were broken and wheat was leveled by
the wind. Trees and telephone lines
blown down. Three wheat fields were
fired by lightning.
Farmers estimated from 90 to 100
per cent of the winter wheat crop,
just awaiting harvest, was destroyed
with the total for other varieties
from 50 to 8S per cent Estimates
based on below average return for
the acres devastated placed in the
damage at more than a quarter of a
million dollars.

Arthur M. Geary, who annearpd in
this case for the , Farm Bureaus,

The present rate upon grain from

In this case the farm organizations
sought reductions to the basis that
the Canadian growers pay over the

ol the grain rates, although sub
stantial from many points, still leave
the grain growers paying consider
ably higher rates on their expert

U. S. Claims Boys and
' Girls Over Century Mark
New York. The arrival here of
Zara Agha, the Turk who claims he
has seen 156 years roll by, has con
centrated attention on the fact that
the United States has a few boys and
girls of its own who are more than
a hundred years of age.
The most active and possibly the
most famous of all these is John R.
Voorhis, president of the New York
City Board of Elections, and the
Grand Sachem of Tammany Hall. Ho
just passed his 101st birthday.
This hardy century-plant of Ameri
can politics today performs his of
ficial duties with the same vigor and
co-ordination that has always char
acterized his work.
Last year when Mr. Voorhis reach
ed his 100th year of existence on this
troubled planet, all New York paid
honor to their "grand old man," and
crowded his office with gifts and
floral horseshoes,
This year, his friends wished to
stage a similar celebration, but Mr.
Voorhis said the annual hailing of his
birthday was becoming monotonous.
"Last year," he told interviewers, "it
lasted three days, wore me out and
clogged the routine of my office."
On his 101st birthday, John Voor
his dropped his work for a day and
a half. The following morning he
was back at his desk precisely at
nine o'clock.
In public office for fifty-seven years,
Mr. Voorhis still walks from his
home to the subway each day. Un
like other men who have passed their
prime, he thinks that most things
are as good today as they have ever
been.
Another living century-old celeb
rity is "Mother Jones," the labor or
ganizer who led the sweating sons of
toil in many a campaign against their
employers.
