The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1902-01-02

Farmers can make good use OF
the long winter evenings in their
comfortable homes by studying the
problems Of their work. The expert
ment stations furnish bulletins Of great
value, and no farmer who wishes to
understand his business from top to
bottom should ignore these valuable
summations Of practice and science.
The reading farmer learns what the
leading farmers are doing and how
they do it, and thus he benefits from
his study. He sees clearly what he
must do in order to get the best and
most produce out of his soil at the least
cost. The farm papers keep him posted
in all the details Of methods and mar
kets, and the farmer Of today has only
himself to blame if he loses money be-
cause of ignorance of his business.

as though Snohomish, Skagit and
Whatcom counties at least, have scored

It is probably true that farming pre-
sents to many men inducements that
no other business can offer. If man
wants to be independent and free from
the harrassing and vexatious cares that
everyone is forced into by sharp COM
petition in professional or business az
fairs, he will find In farming what he
desires. Many young man, says the
Journal of Agriculture, who was raised
on farm, has been so attracted by
what seemed the greater opportunities
offered by commercial business as to
give 1t up and 60 to work in clerk
ship and has come to find out that, in
reality, no such opportunities are now
offered to man without capital as
farming.

The good wishes of the people of San
Juan county should go out to Governor
Mcbride in an unusual degree, for be
has been more closely identified with
them than any previous governor the
state has had, having served term as
judge of the superior court aud made a
personal canvass of the county when a
candidate for reelection. As lieuten-
ant-governOr and presiding officer of
the state senate last winter he made an
admirable record for firmness and fair
ness that augurs well for his success in
the high position to which he has been
so Unexpectedly called. His numerous
friends are confident that his admin
istration will be alike creditable to
himself and TO his party.

The Great Northern Royal stockholdsrs
. There is probably no other American
railroad which can boast of 80 many
stockholders Of royal blood as can the
Great Northern railway. In the offices
of this road are the signatures Of the
Duke of Connaught, the Prince Of
Wales, the Princess Beatrice, the Duke
Of Fife, the Marquis Of Lorne and most
Of the other dukes and duchesses,
princes and princesses, marquises and
warehouses in whose veins runs the
traditional blue blood. The only one
who holds no stock in this road 10 the
head Of the family-Kipg Edward VII
Another distinguished stakeholder is
"Bobs," Field Marshal Roberts. Most
of these people were induced to invest
in Great Northern stock through the
efforts Of Lord Strathcona and Monnt
Royal.

A Few Wealthy Editors

Considerable surprise is manifested
by the press of the state that the editor
of the Republic should have had az
much as 81 when he was held up the
other night. Really that's nothing foR
a Yakima editor. Colonies Tuesley,
McComb and Tuesley, Of the Yakima
Herald, are reliably reported to have q
bank account. Colonel J. ID. Medill, Of
the Yakima Democrat, once gave SIC
to Fourth Of July celebration fund,
and Colonel Leigh Richmond Free
man, of the Farm aud Home, adver-
tises in his paper that he will give
away 81 ,00O, 900 worth Of real estate at
Anacortes to the lady or gentlemen
bringing in the largest list of subscrib-
ers. The editor of the Republic, while
he seldom has as much as 81 cash on
hand, owes several hundred dollars, so
anybody can see that his credit is good,
which is just the same az having
plenty of money.-Yakima Republic.

following Especial" from Friday Har-
Dor: "During the terrific gale Of Christ
mas night big British bark, Of appar-
emily 1900 to 1000 tons burden, was
driven within few yards Of the west
shore of San Juan island, close to the
entrance of Kanaka bay. She is an
iron vessel, in ballast, painted blue,
and displays the signal letters IT. r. K.
g. She was still there this morning
with two anchors down and in no i'm
mediate danger so long as the anchors
hold. She has had narrow escape.
for the southwest shore of San Juan
island is stern and rock-bound
coast upon which tho waves rolling
in across tho broadest expanse Of Fuca
strait sometimes beat with terrific
force. A prominent farmer who lives
at the head Of Kanaka bay says that
this is the third vessel that has been
in immediate danger there within the
past six or seven years. The small
boats were hanging over the side
Thursday morning, ready for immedi.
ate lowering If necessary. It is, thought
that there was pilot aboard, as there
was no flag displayed on the foremost -
Note-Later reports state that the
vessel above referred to is the Bank
burn, which dragged her anchor from
Royal Roads, Victoria, twenty miles
from the place where the anchor again
caught and held by the great chain,
preventing the vessel from becoming a
helpless wreck on the rocky San Juan
shore. She was lowed away to Esqui-
mault by the tug Pioneer.

An otherwise pretty good farmer
who, putting an acre Of potatoes in in
a slipshod sort of a way each year, had
never been able to get over so or go
bushels per acre got pleasing surprise
when he gave his 12-year-old boy an
acre Of land to have what he could
raise upon it, the boy planting it to po-
tatoes and harvesting 225 bushels. The
boy first read up on potatoes, planted
selected seed, took good care Of the
crop and thus beat the old man all to
pieces.

Judge Doolittle Of Illinois was a
most energetic man and excellent jur-

One day young man was tried and
convicted in his court of riotous con-
duct on the street.
Before passing sentence the Judge
looked kindly at the culprit and re-
marked that he did not seem to be an
habitual offender, end if promise of
reform was given, the sentence would
be merely nominal.

way through the crowd, grasped Reed

Reed responded in a manner that

reader he nearly ran into q vision "a
blue and white girl with flashing
black eyes and saucy rosette of q
mouth. He recognized her as Alice
Knox, the pretty daughter of s. the Old
mar" and twin sister Of the subject
of his story. She accepted his STAN
smered apologies demurely and passed
on after friendly word Of greeting,
T This chance meeting gave him q
new viewpoint on his storyand q
most startling one. This was Her
bert Knox twin sister and her ex-
ceeding fondness for the brother was
a matter Of common comment. Could
he break her heart? He had no com
junction for the father who had hui
inflated him, but could he. be the
means of breaking the. sisters heart?
He glanced up and saw her standing
before the door of "the old mans"
room. She was radiant and at that
moment glanced at him and gave him
a saucy nod and smile. That settled
the fate of the story. He took it in
both hands and started to tear it in
pieces, but a second thought possessed
him and he rose quickly and walked
over to where she stood.
Twill you hand this to your father
when you go in?" he said, steadily.
Certainly" she replied. Then she
vanished, leaving the room cold and
dreary. %.
Presently Dick was summoned into

''Is this story known?" he whis.

"Only to you and me- replied Dick.

"The old man" threw himself upon
Dicks mercy and begged that the Sc.
