The Michigan Picnic.

About an even hundred people at
tended the annual Michigan Picnic at
Buffers Cove Wednesday, where the
day was pleasantly spent in feasting,
games and literary exercises. The
Outburst, literary effort of no mean
pretensions, was read, and essays and
Rotations, interspersed with selec-
tons on the organ, violin and cornet,
constituting a programme that was
thoroughly enjoyed by all, with the
possible exception of some old fogy
Washingtonians who manifested a dis
position to indulge in their chronic
grumble over the yearly criticisms of
our climate and people, by these best
people on earth. These O. I. visitors
seemed to think that even representa-

Many OF our people are unaware
that we have Il clam canncry on
Fourth street, near the draw, which
packs in excellent shape for transport
tation and long keeping the finely
favored clans found in such profusion
in our bay. The CLAIMS are packed in
one and two-pound cans, neatly
labeled, and, from samples submitted,
which had been canned several months,
apparently As fresh and appetizing as
they were the day they were taken
from the flats and submitted to the
ordeal of cooking. The name on the
label is "Olympia Packing Co.." and
the firm who inauyurated the enter
prise are X. q. Thompson and J. T..
Anderson, both practical men and pos
sessed of ample faith in the develop
ment of their enterprise as its pro-
ducts became known.
They have already received orders
from British Columbia, Montana,
Idaho and California, where their pro-
duct is not brought into competition
with the fresh clans vended daily at
our markets, just from the water. 1t
is not expected that pack ing will dis
place this trade, for it is only where
the live product cannot be placed, or
where they cannot be conveniently
handled that the canned product can
successfully establish a trade. For
shipment to remote distances, for add
ing a delightful delicacy to the grub
stake" of the prospector, or for con-
venience in handling on any sort of an
excursion, canned CLANS hold undis.
puted rivalry with the best of deli
cacies. For the latter purpose, they
should find place on the shelves of
the grocer, even by the seashOre, and
doubtless will, soon as their merits be-
come known.
While the efforts of the Olympia
Packing Co. are directed mainly to
developing market for the flesh of
the bivalve, they are likewise canning
-" clam-juice," a palatable drink de-
rived from the clam while undergoing
the boiling process, which besides be-
coming a favorite among epicures is
said to possess strengthening qualities
for invalids equal to beef tea.
There is prospect for the Olympia
Packing Co. to become leading local
industry some time. 1t is now in the
condition of an "infant industry"
that requires protection" and we
trust that everybody will have good
word to say for it while engaged in
demonstrating its right to live.

Card OF Thanks.

The Sisters of Charity of Providence
Academy wish to thank their many
kind friends for the generous assist
ance so graciously rendered them on
the occasion of their entertainment OF
Monday evening. Thanks are due
especially to those who devoted their
time to aid in this work, as also to the
efficient stage manager and his assist
ants, who by frequently changing the
scenes conduced in no small degree
to illumine with new beauty the pretty
sight presented by children's smiling
faces. That the giver of all good may
reward them, is the heartfelt prayer OF
the Sisters.

Receiver X. c. Wilson sold the last
of the assets of the First National bank
at Port Angeles, Saturday, at public
auction. The bank failed in 1893, and
since then dividend of 20 per cent has
been paid. There remained to be dis
posed of $4,000 in promissory notes
and $4,000 in other assets. The
promissory notes brought but $50, the
total sale amounting to 5000. The
auction was well advertised and the
attendance large. The court has con-
firmed the sale except as to the
promissory notes, which he has taken
under advisement.

There was only one blood purifier
admitted at the Worlds Fair, Chicago.
1t was Ayers Sarsaparlla. All others
meet the requirements of the Fair Com
mssioners. Ayers Sarsaparilla only
was accorded the honor OF an entry, be-
cause it did meet those require
ments. In other words, the Worlds
Fair authorities found Ayers Sarsapar-
lila to be an honest, scientific prepare
ton, the only one of its kind they could
endorse. That was good testimony that
Ayers Sarsaparlla is the best blood
purifier made. Furthermore, hundreds
of physicians say it is, thousands OF
druggists say it is, millions of patients
say it is. Take it, ailing friend, and you
will say it is.

Emma Kroner, 4 half-breed Indian
girl, poverty-stricken and an inmate
of the refuge home in Seattle fell heir
to $4,000 through the death of q
brother in California, of consumption.
She is the daughter OF a Boston or
white man named Kroner, who came
West years ago to avoid scandal in
his family affairs, and settled on 100
acres of land at Port Gardner, now the
present TOWNSHIP of Everett. Kroner
died nine years ago, leaving a Tulalip
Indian wife and two children. He
left a will bequeathing all his property
to his son, also half-brced. The boy
proceeded to have a good time and got
away with all the money left him from
the townsitc purchase, except $35 900,
which the girl now inherits, her
mother being dead. Kroner came of
a good family in Boston. His brothers
are now reputed to be very wealthy,
engaged in the wholesale boot and shoe
business.

Il will be observed that in this test
the smaller application Of manure has
been relatively the more profitable, but
this may not be borne out by subse-
Quent results. At the sub-station there
has been but little difference thus far
In the apparent effectiveness per ton,
whether used at the Atom or at the g.
ton rate per acre. The results show
IN immediate recovery of about a dol
lar and a quarter on the average In
Increase Of crop, at recent prices, for
every ton of manure used. But the
long continued experiments by Lawes
and Gilbert at Rothamsted, a descrip-
ton of which is given in bulletin II of
the Ohio station, show that not more
than one-half to two-thirds the possible
Increase from barnyard manure is re-
covered in the first crops grown from
It, We may therefore safely Offset the
residual effect of the manure against
the cost of application and consider the
Immediate increase as clear profit. In
another experiment at the central sta
ton, potatoes, wheat and clover are
grown in a three-crop rotation, and in
this test the increase from manure ap-
piled to potatoes has reached $3.50 per
ton, potatoes being valued at SO 1-3
cents per bushel. Barnyard manure is
relatively deficient in phosphoric acid,
as compared with ammonia and potash,
and the experiments Of the Ohio sta
Ntion indicate that phosphoric acid Is
Che constituent most needed on the ma
iority of Ohio soils, but that It only
produces its full effect in the presence
Of ammonia and potash. The price of
acid phosphate has fallen during re-
cent years until 1t can now be bought
Tor delivery anywhere in Ohio, at prices
which bring its actual phosphoric acid
below 5 cents per pound, and as the
sprinkling of acid phosphate or super
phosphate on barnyard manure is be-
lieved to have beneficial effect in pre-
venting the waste Of ammonia from the
manure, 1t would seem that the use OF
acid phosphate in this manner might
serve the double purpose Of preserving
the ammonia Of the manure and in
creasing the effectiveness Of both its
ammonia and potash. Experiments on
this point are now in progress at the
Ohio station.
