The difficulties the early Virginian
colonlsts had with their live stock is
curlously illustrated by the fact that
in the colony Of Massachusetts Bay a
red calf was cheaper than black one,
experience having shown that the for
mer was more likely to be attacked by
wolves, owing, it was thought, to the
wolves installing it for a deer.

-Goldsborough Runs 1888 Knots,

The United States torpedo boat des-
trooper GOldsborough yesterday made
another trial run, and surpassed the eX-
pectations of her builders and of the
trial board. She attained speed of
31.S3 knots on her best running, and
during the entire trial averaged 1908
knots, which is more than three-fourths
OF a knot over the requirements. The
speed developed was equivalent to SO
statutes miles an hour, and the little
black boat attracted many interested
spectators to the water front as she cut
the water in making her runs from Al
Hi point toward the city. She made
three trips, two of them against the
tide, and at all times her engines and
boilers worked smoothly, giving the
utmost satisfaction
The former speed record was held by
the Dahlgren, a similar boat built by
the Bath Iron Works, of Bath Me.
The Dahlgren was built for 3O.5 knot
boat, but fell short of that speed, and
was accepted by the government as a
80 knot boat. The builders of the
Goldsborough are elated at having sur
passed the efforts of the Eastern ship
yard which had the advantages of To-
cation and experience in similar work.

Washington Indians Go.

Washington Indians are slowly dying
out, like the members of the race else
where, and before many years will have
become tradition. Statistics compiled
from the bulletin issued by William r.
Merriam, director of the census, shows
the total number living on the reserva-
lions of Washington in 1890 was 1912
This included few whites. In 1900
the total number was 6,519, an actual
decrease in the reservation population
of ,423, or nearly II per cent.
The largest reservation population is
at Yakima, in Yakima county, with
2,2l9. The Colville, in Ferry and Okan-
ogan, is secOn with AT. The smallest
is the Hob, in Jefferson. with 35. The
ten others with their populations fol-
lows: Quiniault, 1913; Ozette, Quilla-
yute and Makah in Clallam, As, POP and
81 respectively; Muckleshoot, in King,
146; Port Madison, in Kitsap, 1879;
Swinomish, in Skagit, 275; Tulalip, in
Snohomish, 1853; Spokane, in Stevens,
$50; and Lummi, in Whatcom, 359.
Interesting information is given by
the bulletin of the changes in the coun-
ties of Washington. Mason county,
prior to 1864, was known as Sawamish.
In 1881 Garfield was formed from part
of Columbia, The following were or
ganized in 1888: AsOtin from Garfield,
Adams and Franklin from Whitman,
Douglass from Lincoln, Kittitas from
Yakima, Lincoln from Spokane, Okan-
ogan from Stevens, and Skagit from
Whatcom. Chelan was formed from
parts of Kittitas, and Okanogan and
Ferry from Stevens in 1899.
To Skagit and Pierce counties belongs
the honor of having the two smallest
populated precinct in the state. Each
has two residents only. These precincts
are Cavanaugh in Skagit and Kipowsin
in Pierce Big Canyon and Queets in
Chehalis are close seconds with three
each, but the inhabitants of the other
two precincts may argue there is a great
difference in their favor, as two are
company and three are not. 1t is said
in Chehalis county that the two people
living in one of the smallest precincts
differed in their political faith, and
that both walked five miles to vote op-
posing tickets at the last election.
Three precincts tie for third place, each
with six residents. They are Dickey,
Norman and Wineten, all in Clallam
Perley in Skagit, with eight, ranks
fourth. -P.-I.

Brother Gunderson of the Shelton
Journal undertakes, in the columns Of
that paper to defend the Gunderson
school book bill lately vetoed by Gov
ernor Rogers, and states that the bill
will again bob up serenely in two years
in time to overcome the executive dis
pleasure. If Brother. Gunderson has
the true interests of school children Of
this state at heart we would advise him
to drop this measure that would only
benefit the eastern book trusts, and
turn his influence and energy to the
support of a state school book law to give
to the state the opportunity to publish
all of its school books used in all schools
of the state up to the Ninth grades.
Have these text books compiled and re-
vised by an educational commission
made up of some of the leading educa-
tors of the state without regard to part
isan bias and then publish these books
in printing office owned and control
led by the state. Such text books
could be furnished to the scholars free
or rented for small sum per grade that
would replace the books when worn
out. The advantages of such a system
would be: first, good, up-to-date books;
second, supplied at small cost to pupils
or tax payer by continual use in the
schools; third, the elimination of the
wealthy book corporations from their
attempts to control the educational
policy of the state.-Olympia Capital.
Perhaps enough has been said on the
school book question to convince those
who are open to the conviction OF rea-
son and figures, and it would be waste
of both time and space to argue with
our populist friend of the Capital, as
well as barren of results. Brother Price
was at the time of last adoption under
the Governors wing, one of the chap
ply family if such it could be called,
and doubtless he knows good deal
more about the "insiden of that deal
than he would care to tell, although
his conscientious scruples in some other
directions seem quite acute. We think
he knows that the school patrons of
Washington are now in the hands of
the biggest and rankest book trust in
existence, we can have nothing further
to fear from any other system of doing
business, and might possibly get better
books for less money. California, the,
only other state owing its printing
plant and publishing own text books,
considers the plan an expensive failure,
chiefly by reason of political intrigue,
to which this state is no stranger since
the populist-democrat came into being
as a political factor. We have had
some recent experience with 'some of
the leading educators of the state" the
Governors state board, and the rag
tag and bob-tail' aggregation of school
books they produced. Verify, our Gin
itiative and referendum friend of the
Capital processes to be anxious to get
public utilities as close to the people as
possible, except in school book selec-
tons. Like all populists, the remote
trust is the great bugaboo to him, and
the evils under his nose escape his vigil
ance on behalf of the people.

Prospects for Fruit.

Unless weather conditions upset the
calculations of fruit men there will be
a good crop this season. The trees are
in excellent condition and the smaller
fruits are doing well. County Inspec-
tor Tonneson, who has been looking
into conditions through the county,
predicts a record. Speaking yesterday
of necessary precautions, he stated:
Apples and pear trees should be
sprayed at once for fungus diseases
with the Bordeaux mixture. This is
the proper time to spray for scab,
while the buds are swelling. The time
to spray again is after the petals have
fallen, when the fruit is set. This pre-
-paration should be applied now and
after blossoming season in the proper
tfons and made as follows:
"copper" sulphate blue yitriol), four
pounds; fresh lime (not air slacked),
four pounds; water to make fifty gallons
Dissolve the copper sulphate in
about two gallons of hot water, con-
tanned in wooden vessel, by stirring,
or by suspending the sulphate contain
ed in cheese cloth sack, in a large
bucket full of cold water. With the
cold water and cheese cloth bag long
er time is required.
after it is thoroughly dissolved put
into wooden vessel holding twenty
five gallons of water. In order to ac-
complish the best results in Stacking
the lime, use an ordinary water pail
and after placing in the lime add a
small quantity of water. When the
lime begines to crack add enough wat
er to keep it in a paste stage. Dom t
let it get dry. When the lime is slack
ed add sufficient water to bring it up to
twenty-five gallons. This method in
sures good mixing. The two mixtures
should be united by pouring into sep
arate cask at the same time.
ut must be remembered that this
spray is fungicide and not an insecti-
eide, as many people think. Insect
pest should be sprayed when they first
begin to appear with quassia and whale
oil soap or the kerosene emulsion. -

Columbia River Fisheries.

State Fish Warden Van Dusen OF
Oregon, and State Fish Commissioner
Little of Washington, held a confer
ence in Portland last Friday, in refer
ence to the enforcement of fishing laws
upon the Columbia river 1t was de-
cided to this year enforce the fishing
laws to the letter. The Columbia River
will be patrolled jointly and if possible
two patrol boats will be secured. +. &.
MeReavy has been appointed deputy
by Mr.. Little for the Columbia River
district, and will cooperate with MIR.
Van Dusen i'm the enforcement of the
laws i'm this district. While the laws
of the two states in reference to salmon
fishing are very similar, there is one
hitch that will make imperative q fea-
ture of the new law passed by the Ore
gon State Legislature at it's late session.
This is the section in reference to fish
ing on Sundays. Oregon's law pro-
hibits Sunday fishing. 1t was supposed
that Washington's law did also, but it
does not. A Sunday closing amend
ment was passed by both branches OF
the Washington Legislature. but when
the bill was enrolled the amendment
was missing. What became of it no
one knows, but it is certain that it was
not incorporated in the bill, and hence
Washington has no Sunday closing law
AS result Of this defect in the Wash
ington law, it will be next to impossible
if not entirely so, to enforce this law
upon the Oregon side of the Columbia
River Another matter Of Importance
that will be brought to the attention of
the Oregon Fish Commission next
Tuesday is the request of Fish Commits
sioner Little, of Washington, that
Oregon operate one of the Washington
hatcheries. AS Oregon is short on
hatcheries and Washington long.
Little considers it no more than right
operation of hatcheries, the output of
which must be beneficial to both, until
such time as this state has more
hatcheries of her own. The hatchery
Little desires to turn over the Oregon
authorities is. the one located at We
natchie, which last year turned out
about G, 000,00 young fry. By operat-
ing it to its full capacity the hatchery
can turn out from 100000 to 10000, 900
small fry, at an estimated operating
expense of Cathlamet Gazette
