The agriculture bill reported ap- proximate)y $31,000,000, which Secre- tary Meredith sald was $6,000,000 less than the department's estimate of its needs and $2,186,000 less than provid- ed in the appropriation for the present | year. Northwest agricultural stations will be closed as follows: Burns, Or., field station; Lind, Wash., field station; Corvallis, Or., cereal diseases; Pull- man, Wash., cereal diseases; Umatilla, Or., irrigation station; Ashland, Or., | forest insects; three out of every four | forest experiment stations. The Pacific coast, the intermountain | region, the south and southwest must, in large measure, be deprived of the benefits of the market news service.

The court's opinion was very short, setting forth only the court's con- clusions. Chief Justice White rendered a sup- plemental opinion concurring in the one rendered by Justice Van Devanter, but going more fully into the Issues involved. Mrs. Catt Opening Speaker at Geneva.
