State Fair Commissioner Lee is doing
good work in Spokane for the coming
state fair to be held in North Yakima this
year. He has succeeded in having the
date for the Spokane Fruit FAIR set just
following that of the state fair 90 that
the two will not conflict. The latter will
be held from September 26 to October l
inclusive, and the Spokane fair from
October 4 to Is.
The Spokane Chronicle says regarding
Mr.. Lees work in that city: "Mr. Lee
is visiting Spokane merchants and man
ufacturers and urging them to send ex-
hiblts to the Yakima fair.
Spokane dealers do not handle nearly
so much of Yakima's trade as they
should" he said to Chronicle reporter,
"and few first-cass exhibits would be
of great service in introducing Spokane
goods"

a very commendable move on the part OF
The Knights and the library will no doubt
reap handsome benefit. We have no
fears but that the character of the enter

A strange accident happened in the
Barge residence on Third street last Mon
day. The large kitchen range WAS blown
to pieces, one of which struck Mrs.
Barge on the head, intlictng a painful
wound. 1t is supposed that ice stopped
the coil at both ends and thus confined
the steam, which generated with suffi-
Gent strength to cause the explosion.

PROPOSED MILK SYNDICATE.

the names of the directors of the proposed
company will be made known People in
this city who have money have been invited
TO go into this enterprise and Il is claimed
the promoters OF this enterprise are making
progress.
One of the promoters told a Star reporter
this morning that they had purchased land
In this oitI where building for a milk
depot is TO be erected, and he added that
the deed had been placed on record. but
only nominal consideration was named.
which accounted for the fact he thought
that the transaction had attracted no at
tentton- He did not state the location of
the ground which he said had been pur-
chased.
Ii is also stated by Mr.. Haller. architect.
as already published in The Star, that he is
preparing plans for the proposed building
As Tar as can be learned by inquiry
among the dealers in milk in this city ID ap-
pears. as already stated in The Star. that
representatives of the promoters have OBJ
tained very generally from them the prices
at which they would be willing TO sell out,
and in some cases what Is called an option
mas been given, which provides that tha
business can be purchased at any time
wlthn three months at the figures named,
IoeSe options can be taken up at anv
time by the payment of the money named
but 1t Is said by some of the dealers thai
they do not know of any case where Il has
yet been done. According 10 some the plan
OF the promoters seems to be to get an

CARRIER PIGEONS.
Capt. Bartlett's Report of Their Ser
vice During the War;

vice Dur1nS the War.
Capt. ]. R. Bartlett, retired who was in
charge of the coast signal service during
the Spanish war, has made a report in re-
gard to the use of carrier pigeons for sig
nailhs purposes In which he recommends:
Tnat experiments be made for the pur-
pose of training homing pigeons in connec-
ton with coast signaling for the reason
that they offer a solution of the problem of
communication with vessels in the off-shore
patrol fleet. These vessels would most prob.
ably operate in districts having established
bases. and at such distance from the coast
and from the inShore patrol that visual sig
naiing would be impossible A homing
pigeon service cannot be improvised and
be OF any real value. The birds must be
Systematically and patiently trained for
year or two. not only to euuip the cotes
with trained carriers for that locality but
to furnish stock with sea-bred breeders
Experimental! cotes should be located at the
paseS OF naval coast defense districts,
small vesse! provided with a carrier pigeon
outfit and an officer detailed to develop this
means OF communication and Superintend
the systematic training of the birds I'm
iess this is done with intelligence and thor
oughness for at least year, it would be
useless to rely upon 1t at all. Such sys-
tenn could be very economically inaugurated
ana could be maintained at comparatively
slight cost. A simple routine of drills sx-
ercises and reports. based upon our recent
experiences, could be readily put into opera
tion and small rewards or appropriate
ratings would stimulate proficiency. In
times of peace such a service would be of
constant convenience to this department
and to the maritime interests of the coun-
try, and the constant practice would pre-
pare the Een for the emergencies of war
Attention is called to the fact that eyerv
other maritime nation has such a system,
generally much more elaborate than the
ona herein propossd6 oSganized by, and on,
Grated under its naval or. maritime DEPART
