A well known oysterman says that
the recent killing of starfish on the
beds in the bay is s1oyc's labor lost, .
as it we're, that the harm done by the
starfish to the Oysters is largely inn
ag,nary, that the natural food of the
startsh is the barn acle and that they
only resort to Clustering in the absence
of the former; that there are album
dant instances where the radiate has
settled down to barnacled oysters and,
after having disposed of the barnacles
thereon, gone elsewhere without hurt
ing the bivalve. Said the sage to the
reporter, 7 don't believe that all the
raking and scraping of the beds, and

fish, as stated ID: the JOURNAL recently

1t remained territory until 1889. Act
ing under an enabling act passed by
congress, the constitution of the state or
Washington was framed by a eonven-
ton of seventy-ive delegates chosen by
the people of the territory, at an cleo
ton held May IA, 1889, under the act of
congress approved February p, 1889. The
convention met at Olympia July 4. 1889.
and adjourned August %. 1889. The con-
stitution was ratified at an election held
October !. 1889. and on November ii,
1889. the president of the United States
proclaimed the admission OF the state OF
Washington into the Union. 1t Is worthy
of note that the act Of congress pro-
viding for the state OF Washington was
approved on Washingtons birthday.
The state lies between the 46th and 49th
parallels OF north latitude and the 117th
and 125th meridians of longitude west
from Greenwich. 1t has an area of 1894
square miles. and Is, therefore. greater In
area than any state east Of the Mississ-

and these diversities affect the character
of the native productions.

principal field crops, but the valleys are

cultivation of wheat the principal source

The mountains of the state of WASH
ington are entitled to special mention on
their timber lands. Beautiful though
many of its mountains are. there is
none anywhere which can compare with
Mount Rainier. With an altitude official
ly given as 14444 feet. although It is
actually nearer 1900, 1t Is the third
highest peak on the continent. but II
stands first in grandeur and sublimity.
The higher attitudes of these mountains
give fir, hemlock and spruce; the table
lands Ar and spruce; the valleys fir, cedar.
spruce, cottonwood. maple and alder.
Much Of this timber is surpassed In size
only by the redwood forests of Califor-
MIA.
At one time the mountains harbored the
mountain lion. but he has almost disap-
peared, and of animals to be feared there
are left only the bald-faced bear of the
Cascade mountains. although on the east
side there may be found occasionally
remnant of the wolf family in the gray
wolf, the black wolf, and coyote. The
cougar--the mountain lion the lynx and
wildcat are almost entirely extinct. The
grand game of the state is the elk, which
is still to be found in the Olympic noun

through the vastly greater financial re-
turn they received as a result of the adj
vance in price. Little of the crop Of 1893
was sold for more than IL cents a pound,
and most of 1t went for much less. the
price steadily dropping until 1t went be-
low cents in the spring of 1900. Practi-
cally the entire crop of 1900 has been mar
keted at from 10 to is cents pound.
The production of hay has made a re-
markable increase. principally because of
the demand for shipment to the Orient
and Alaska and the consequent main
tenance of good prices 1t is estimated
that Western Washington produced over
this year may run as high as 5000 tons.
The demand for Washington hay is con-
stantly increasing, especially for forage
for government animals in the Philippines,
and 1t Is probable that vastly greater
area will be given up to IL during the
coming year.
The gold, silver and copper mines of
Western Washington have produced little
during the past year. The mining in
dustry of this part of the state is still
In its infancy. Many remarkably rich
properties have been found, but few have
as yet become steady shippers. The COM
ing year will probably. witness the en-
trance of many properties into this class
and IL is the belief of those conversant
with the situation that It is only a mat
ter of a short time when the mines of
Western Washington will constitute a
great source of wealth.
This years fruit crop In Western Wash
ington was unusually heavy. Large guam
titles of strawberries were shipped and
the apple crop was enormous.
For wheat, oats, potatoes and other
farm products this has been a good year
These products are not as important 10
Western Washington as to the counties
beyond the mountains. but nevertheless
they constitute a considerable source Of
wealth. They cannot be classed as minor
products. because large quantities are
shipped both TO other states and abroad

THE dairy business of Western Wash
lngton Is making a remarkable
growth More than two-thirds Of
the creameries Of the state are west OF
the Cascades. and the division OF the
state butter production Is about the same.
Two years ago there were nfty-eight
oreameries in the state There are now
nj. A portion Of this remarkable tn
crease is accounted for by the fact that
private creameries not counted in ISIS.
are now part OF the statistics.
state Dairy Commissioner 4. A. Nc
Donald estimates the 1890 butter output
of the creameries IN this state at s,59s.oso
rounds and that OF the dairies at l.ooq.-
90 pounds. a total production OF $4,000
pounds. OF this amount Western Wash
ington will produce about 100000 pounds.
Less than 3sooo oo pounds OF butter were
made in the entire state two years ago.
Western Washington creameries will
turn out over 10000 pounds Of cheese
this year.
The hon crcs- OF Western Washington
IN is1o was about the same as IN lS@
o. 600 bales, weighing from $50 to 80
pounds each. The quality Of tbe hops

acreage in the Big Bend country was in
creased considerably and the crop was
large. AS an instance, IL is shown that
from one station on the Great Northern,
which shipped 10000 bushels in 1899. there
was shipped 100000 bushels in 1907
The Post-Intelligencer correspondent

The correspondent at colfax writes:
