Press Bulletin No. 1.

Fourteen varieties OF lettuce have
been tested in the garden of the Ex-
pertinent station at the State Agr,-
culture College this season, and of
these, two varieties seem to be worthy
of special mention, The lettuce may
be roughly classed into two groups.
the entire leaved and the curled
leaved OF the fourteen sorts tested,
five were curlel leaved. The best
heads were produced uniformly by
the entire leaved varieties. OF these
heading, seeds planted April 18th.
making fine heads 10y the 10th of June.
The variety has not yet begun to send
upits flower stalk Uune 2O 1t is of
fine quality, and can be ereccommended
as an excellent sort for home use or
market. champion Spring and Sum-
mer," also entire leaved, makes larger
heads than the "Gardner's" and is
later, the heads coming on the las t
of June. 1t is one Of the best market
lettuces, large. crisp and of good flavor.
New Salamander is rs its best midway
between the others.
OF the curled leaves sorts "Early
Prize Head" and "Hanson" are large
and fine, but the heads are so COM
pact and the leaves are not so we'll
blanched, as in entire leaved varieties
Green Fringed is a beautiful variety
for garnishing.
For home and market use the hest
head lettuce would seem to be Califor-
MIA Gardeners and Champion Spring
and Summer. The heads of these va
| rleties are quite firm, perfectly de-
veloped and the latter kind is as large
as an early York cabbage
Head lettuce are superior to cutting
lettuce because the inner leaves, which
are the only ones that shonld he used
are blanched to creamery white and
are more crisp and Of more delicate
flavor. For early use the head lettuce,
can he cut the same as any 9th er
kind
For purposes of comparison. the
seed of varieties was sown April
I8, indrills side 10y side, in rich garden
soil. All sorts were treated exactly
alike, in cultivation and thinning.

youth is exchanged for manhood. He
built lodge of boughs in a secluded
place, ana painted his face of a somore
hue. BY day he amused himself in
walking about, and at night lay down
in his bower, looking up through :ts
opening into the sky. Hesought gift
from the Master of Life, and he hoped
1T would do something to benefit his
race. On the third day he became too
week to leave his lodge, and as he lay
gazing upward he saw spirit come
down in the shape of a young man,
dressed in green and having green
plumes on his head, who told him to
arise and wrestle with him, as this
was the only way IN which he could
obtain his wishes. He did so and
found his strength renewed by the ef-
fort. The visit and trial of the wrest-
ling was repeated ford days the youth,
feeling at each trail, that althoug hhis
bodily strength declined, moral and
supernatural energy was impaired,
which promised him the victory. ON
the third day his celestial visitor
spoke to him. Tomorrow he said,
will be the seventh day of your fast
and the last time I shall wrestle
with you. You Will triumph
over me and gain your wishes. AS
soon as you have thrown me down

the spot in soft earth. When you
have done this leave me, but. come oc-
casionally to visit the place to keep
the weeds from growing. Once or

He then departed, but returned next
day, and. as he had predicted was
thrown down. The young man obeyed
his instructions in every particular,
and soon had the pleasure OF seeing the
green plumes of his visitor shooting
up through the ground. He carefully
weeded the earth and LETT it fresh and
soft, and in due time was gratitied By
beholding the matured plant, bending
with Its golden fruit and gracefully
waving Its green leavs and yellow tas-
sci in the wind. He then invited his
parents to tho spot to behold the new

LOST IN THE WOODS.
The Probable Fate of a VashOn
Island Man.
MISSING * THREE WEEKS.
A woodsman Disappears Suddenly ana
MysteriousIy-He Left His Money
and all His Effects Behind.
MISSING X THREE WEEKS.

Mr. Isaac Rees, living at aaury on Vashon
island. sixteen miles south OF Seattle. came 10
the city yesterday on search for William Scott,
a young man who has unaccouatably disap-
peared.
Mr. Scott has been working at getting out
shingie bolts for Mr.. Rees for three months
He was living in a little shack in the heart OF
the dense woods on the island with man
named James Williamson. Both OF the men
were from Seattle. About four weeks ago MI
Rees paid Scott $50 for part OF his work, ana
Scott and Williamson came to Seattle Alter
laying in a good stock OF provisions Scott went
back three weeks ago last Wednesday. That
night he was helping a neighbor OF Mr.. Rees to
move, ald since that time he has not been seen
His lonely little cabin in the woods was VS.
tied the other day by Mr.. Rees Everything ex-
cept his rifle was found and the theory is that
he went out hunting ia the woods, and by some
chance met his death. All of his provisions,
his tools and his clothes are still in the cabin,
and there is no indication that he intended TO
stay away more than few hours. Mr.. Rees
also owes him money, which indicates that he
did not go away purposey.
The missing man is about = years old, is six
feet III height, has light mustache and wears
a wide-brimmed felt hat His father, be told
Mr. R.es, was captain of a Union Pacific
steamer running from san Francisco to Oak
land. II is supposed that the young man had
bank account in the city.
Scott had engaged man to help him in the
woods, and the man was To commence work
two weeks ago Friday. When he found the
shack Scott was away, and he came back to
Seattle. Mr.. Rees is almost sure that the young
man accidentally shot himself in the woods.
