Washington officials who visited Hermiston last Saturday made favor able comments regarding the future development of the Um atilla project after they had made a tour of in. spection, visiting different parts of the country adjacent to Hermiston. •‘The Um atilla project is my first project and I hold it dear," declared Director Davis. He pictured the ul tim ate development of the Um atilla project, so that all lands to the west might have enough water. The distinguished party that vis ited Hermiston Saturday, headed by Director A. P. Davis of the reclama tion service, are on a tour of Inspec tion. The reports they make upon their return to Washington w ill in a large measure govern the nppro- prlationg to be made for the future development of reclaimed lands. The men were impressed w ith the U m atilla project. They saw the la t ent possibilities of the country. They saw arid lands that at pres ent are barren and waste. A short distance along the same road they perceived fields of alfalfa in which there nestled up-to-date homes that hinted of happiness and prosperity. I t demonstrated the productiveness of the land when placed under water. The U m atilla project is no longer an er-srlm ent. Its growth has been steady and permanent. The project is one of the greatest alfalfa producing localities in the west. A day seldom passes but what we do not receive letters from people who live in the different parts of tin south and northwest asking inform a tion concerning this locality. Its possibilities are diversified. For In stance stock raising is a lender w tli a good many of our farmers. Nearly all of the farmers have pure bred hogs, cattle and sheep. The stock raised upon the project have been exhibited at the state fa ir and the Pacific International Exposition. In every Instance the stock sent from the U m atilla project have received a high rating over competitive entries. Honey is one of -our leading in dustries. U m atilla is the leading honey county in the state and nearly all of the honey produced in this county is produced on the irrigated land.

Two Notes of Musle at ths 8ams Tims. Dr. Ales Hrdllcka, the American eth nologlst, contributes to the proceed ings of the American Philosophical society an important paper on the peopling of Asia, which “constitutes one of the greatest problems of an tbropology.” He concludes, says the Scientific American, that the cradle of humanity was essentially south western Europe, with later the Medi terranean basin, western Asia and Af rica. It is primarily from Europe and secondarily from these regions that the earth was peopled, and this peo pltug was comparatively recent. Early inun wus unable 'to people the globe owing to his insufficient effectiveness and until the end of glacial times and his old stone culture he had evidently all he could do to preserve mere ex istence. Only an advance In culture could enable him to control his en vironment and secure a steady surplus of hirths over deaths. The cause of man’s peopling of the world was not a mere wish to do go, but the necessity arising from growing numbers nnd cor respondingly decreasing supply of food. It was this which eventually led to agriculture. This spreading over the globe wus conditioned by three great laws—movement In the di rection of least resistance; movement In the direction of the greatest pros pects; movement due to a force from behind, or compulsion. Alteration* Strathle Mackay, a window cleaner, can sing two notes of music at the same time and has been the subject of much curiosity and Interest In Lon don recently. The department of pho netics In the London university has shown deep Interest in Mackay’s case and has subjected him to tests und at his own request has arranged for further tests of his remarkable talent. One of tbe tests was made by Prof. Daniel Jones, head of the department of phonetics in the university. At (tie conclusion the professor told a news paper representative that Mr. Mac kay’s voice was absolutely unlike any other lie had ever heard. He said that It was phenomenal. At the professor’s request, Mackay sang a number of notes with tlie dou ble voice, and records of these tones were taken by the kymograph, an in strument which shows sound vibra tions. By these means it was possible to keep a strictly scientific measure ment of the musical Intervals between the double notea that were sung. Professor Jones explains that Mac kay apparently hns the power when singing to make one of his vocal chords vibrate at half the sate of the other, or at a third, fourth or fifth of the rate. It Is this which produces the double notes. Why Paths Are Crooked. The reason most paths are crooked was explained the other day by a Small Donald’s Remark Too Much for Lynbrook commuter, who ever since Sense of Humor of Those Who the Spnnish war has been cutting Heard It across lots to catch the 7 :42. “Did you ever see a strnight path 7" Tills Is printed for the benefit of a he asked.
