Orcas leland
WEST SOUND


The whatcom Commercial Club has
granted a bonus of s. per trip to the
launch Hermosa, of this place, for a pc
riod of twenty weeks for making one
round trip each week between here and
Whatcom, touching at Orcas and prob
ably also at Olga, Doe Bay and Urban.
The Hermosa was disabled last week by
some little mishap to her machinery and
was unable to make the trip or to 70 to
Friday Harbor Sunday with the base ball
team.
Mrs. G. w. Freel died very suddenly
about O'clock Monday evening at her
home near West Sound. Her health has
been very poor for years and she had suf-
fered greatly. Her maiden name was
Elizabeth Syrena and she was born in
Illinois abou. 81 years ago. She was first
married to a Mr.. Bagby and they had one
son, who has always resided with her.
After her marriage to Mr.. Freel she came
| with him and his family to Orcas island
from Nebraska about eleven years ago,
first settling near East Sound. The flu
neral took place yesterday.
Chase Bros. have been advised by the
deputy collector of customs at Friday
Harbor that consent has been Obtained TO
the issuance of a register to the lIermosa,
which will enable her to engage in trade
between island points and Victoria, or
other British Columbia ports. She will
be permitted to carry both passengers
and freight and it is hoped that she will
make regular trips at least once a week
between here and Friday Harbor and
Victoria, or to Sidney where there is rail
connection with Victoria and direct
steamboat connection with n anaimo and
also by big railroad ferry with New
Westminster and Vancouver. The Brit
ish Columbia cities afford tirst-class
market for island products.

It's chief requisites are good soil and
free drainage TIE best potting mixture
for it is composed of leaf mod, good gar
den loan. sand, and old, well-rotted ma
nure. The drainage must be made and
kept free, so that. the waterca run off
without hindrance. This is particularly
important during the winter, when the
plant generally takes. rest, and a ever
abundance of water at the roots during
this period will cause them to rot, and
the leaves to turn yellow and drop off.
Repotting when it becomes necessary,
should be done in the spring. when the
swelling of the leafbud at the ends of
the shoots indicates the beginning of
