The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1904-03-19

A Republican county convention
will soon be called for the election of
six delegates to the state convention
to be held at Tacoma May II for the
nomination of candidates for congress
and for the various state offices.
Two prominent citizens of counties
adjacent to San Juan will be candi-
dates before the latter convention
for two of the most important posi-
tions within the gift of the people of
the state - Governor Mcbride, Of
Skagit, for the governorship, and
Judge Calvert, of Whatcom, for
state land commissioner If there is
merit in the idea of the Northwest
Combination" and these gentlemen
are supported in the convention by
the delegations from their home
counties the ISLANDER believes
that they should have the cordial
support of the delegates from this
county also, unless it happens that
either has SO small a following from
other sections of the state as to rem
der his nomination quite improbable.
The ISLANDER is not partial to.
Governor Mcbride and does not be.
lieve that delegates from this county.
should be INSTRUCTED to support him
masmuch as Republican sentiment
here, insofar as it is represented by
the party leaders, cannot be cOnsid-
cred favorable to the railroad com
mission issue which the governor has
sought to make paramount" in
state politics. If, however, the state
convention repeats its action of two
years ago and again declares for
railroad commission, either elective
or appointise, the governor will be
Justly entitled to the nomination and
to the loyal support ofIevery Repub-
lican.
As to Commissioner Calvert, how
ever, thera ought II be no question
as t. the duty Of the party in this
county, through its representatives
in convention, to instruct its dele
gates % do their utmost in behalf of
his denomination, He has well earned
it from the state at large, and our
i.tle county is under special obliga-
ton to him for having given it the
only recognition it has ever received
in the distribution of state patron
age, The most important position
in his department-that of assistant
commissioner, is held by q citizen of
this county, appointed by him, and
two other lucrative positions con-
trolled by him are held by San Juan
citizens. Next to the governorship
itself the office of land commissioner
has become the most important in
the state, 1t is of the utmost inn
portamce that it should be filled by a
man who is not only capable but hon
est. Judge Calvert is both. The
states great interests in school and
tide lands are safe in his keeping. 1t
has been charged that his prede,
cessor sold his honor in selling tide
lands. The charge lacks substantial
ton for the reason that it has never
been shown that he ever had any
honor, though heralded by his fellow
Populists as Honest Bob" Judge
Calvert does not strut about pro
claiming his integrity, but his most
intimate friends of many years, both
in this state and in Iowa, where he
was long a district Judge, know him
to be a man of the most sterling
character-tirm in the right, faithful
to every trust and true to his friends.
Give him his due.

The SpigOt and the RunE.
There is no more interesting study
than to note how one sided our bust
ness economy, or, rather, sagacity,
seems to run at times. The ultimate
value of product is what we get for
it, no matter how skillfully it is manu-
featured and put up, says a successful
dairyman.
1t does not seem to dawn upon all
dairy farmers that farm crops sold to
live stock are profitable or otherwise
just as they are sold in town or to a
neighbor. Haven't you seen men spend
day to secure quarter of a cent adj
vance on a pound of dressed pork,
about so cents for each pig, a Ealf
cent on a pound of butter or one-eighth
of cent on a pound of cheese and a
like small premium upon other prod
ucts-& Which certainly is to be COM
mended-but who at the same time
day after day were selling material
just as valuable TO live stock that rep
resented the lowest market to be
found? Being interpreted, of course
this means feeding poor COWS, but /
was wondering, if we put the PROPOSE
ton from a different viewpoint, If it
would not be more effective. Are the
cows you are feeding the best COW
market to be had?
Good Prices For Dairy Cattle.
Four thousand dollars was recently
paid for bull calf in New York state.
This big price was paid because his
dam had in an official test produced
over thirty pounds of butter in seven
days When such price is paid for a
bull of any of the beef breeds it is
generally because some one has paid
big price for his sire or dam or that
the purchaser expects TO beat some
rival in the show ring, says j. G. Long
burn in Northwest Farmer. In the
state of Wisconsin. now the. greatest
dairy state in the Union, Holsteins are
far In the lead. At recent sale of an
ordinary working herd one COW, brought
S1,400 and a six-year-old bull $500,
while the whole herd of sixty seven
head made an average of $213. All of
these cattle were sold on their merits
as actual producers. One OF the finest
cows in Manitoba today is Holstein-

ago. She has been farmers only

not be bought for the price of two or

LEARN TO STAND WELL

Women who wish to preserve the
simness and contour of their figures
must begin by learning to stand well.
That is explained to mean the throw
ing forward and upward of the chest.
the hattening of the back. and the
shoulder blades held in their proper
places. and the definite curvings in of
the small of the back thus throwing
the whole weight of the body on the
hips.
This, I'm great measure. preserves
the figure. because it keeps the muscles
firm and well strung. and prevents the
sinking down of the flesh around the
waist. so common in women over thirty,
which is perfectly easy to escape. An
other thing TO avoid is a bad habit cf
going upstairs, as most women DO, bent
forward, with the chest contracted.

Any woman can grow old II she wants
to do so; any woman can keep young If
she will take the trouble. A woman can.
at thirty, begin TO get old. She can neg-
lect to do her hair becomingly: she can
fall out of her way of wearing nice
neckwear; she can let her complexion go
to the dogs and her teeth keep company;
she can allow her hands to shrivel and
lose their shape; she can grow scanned
and marred and she can forget that her
figure should have its outline preserved.
All of these things are possible for the
woman who does not care how she
looks.
A great many women. who are very
fully groomed. still look very untidy. IL
is because they do not know the up-to-
date methods of looking nice. There
are ways and ways of making the hands
charming and the eyes bright.
There is n great deal OF talk about
the beauty Of the soul shining through
the skin, and there is a lot of chatter
about the importance of a good heart
and correct emotions This is all right,
OF course But. fortunately or unfor-
tunately. all women are born into
world which is critical. The eyes can
see and the senses are alert. The eve
demands beauty, and no matter how
good a woman may be, she loses a great
deal of her power If she is not good TO
gaze upon.
The woman who depends upon n good
heart has very little upon which to
work But II to her good heart slN will
add a charming personality. then her
power for good viii be great A beautl
full woman succeeds where an ugly
woman fails; a beautiful woman In
fuences one where another does not;
beautiful woman sfascinates her family
and keeps them fascinated. and q beau
tifui woman lives in the memory when
others have faded away So, don't neg
lect your beauty chances
The hair is justly termed a woman's
crown Of Beauty 1t should surround
her head IN just the right manner,
framing her face and setting off the
eyes. 1t should bring out the colors
and make the features seem softer and
more delicate.

EGGS ARE IMPORTANT

Would IL not be wise TO substitute
more eggs for meat in our daily diet
About one-half Of an egg is solid nutri-
ment. This Is more than can be said
Of meat. There are no bones. no tough
pieces that have 10 be laid aside. 4
good egg is made up OF ten parts shell.
sixty parts white. and thirty parts yolk.
The white OF an egg contains SIS per
cent water. and the yoIk 80 per cent.
Practically. an egg is animal food. and
yet there is none OF the disagreeable
work Of the butcher necessary 70 obtain
it. Vegetarians use eggs freely, and
old and have been remarkably free from
sickness.
Eggs are best when cooked four
minutes. This takes away the animal
taste. which is offensive to some. but
does not harden the white and yoIk so
as to make them difficult TO digest. An
egg II cooked very hard is difficult OF
digestion. Such eggs should be eaten
with bread and masticated very finely.
An egg spread on toast Is nt for a
king-if kings deserve better food than
anybody else. Fried eggs are much less
wholesome than boiled ones. An egg
dropped into hot water is not only clean
but delicious morsel. Most people spoil
the taste OF their eggs by adding pepper
and salt. A little sweet butter is the
best dressing. Eggs contain much phos-
phorus. which IS supposed TO be bene-
fetal TO those who use their brains
much

SOMETHING NEW TO SAVE.

everything. every little scrap; there are
others who save nothing. but are there
any who save their old rubbers? Do
you know that there is a market for
all old articles having even a small
quantity of rubber IN their composition?
Not long ago in a small town several
women combined and saved all their
old rubber shoes, bicycle tires and
mackintoshes, and at the end of the
month sold the collection at so much per
pound. The proceeds were then given
- a charitable institution. The cOnbi-
nation of these first few women at
tracted other women. and now there is
a rubber-savlng club in this town, and
the services of a market wagon are
secured. free of charge, each month. for
the collection of rubber treasure.

THE HOWE, ITS PROBLEMS l4ND INTERESTS
BE CAREFUL AT MEALS

Every day men and women who find
their life work lin the busy mart OF
trade eat their luncheons in silence.
and in consequence gobbls them down.
often without masticating their food
properly. This is due to being alone.
and having nothing to distract their
attention. the impetus OF the morning
rush is not thrown off.
In some families meals are eaten in
silence. or perhaps with the exchange
of a few constrained words. the bold
offender looking askance at the head of
the house before venturing on her re-
mark.
Now doctors have told us over and
over again that the beneficial results
gained by eating n meal IN a contented
frame ef mind, with cheerful surround
ings. are beyond price: yet there are
houses in which each meal is a scene
OF pickering. nagging and fault-finding,
for at that time only are all the mem
bers of the household gathered together
i'm one place. and the grieved one seizes
the opportunity to air his grievance.
This is not only the case where there
are young children, who require an occa-
sional reprimand for carelessness or
naughtiness. but IL also occurs in fami-

whether IL be in the morning when they
are more or less exhausted from their
labors
At meal times each member of the
family should recount pleasant episodes,
tell something amusing he or she has
read or seen: wit should be sharpened
against wit. repartee should be ready
and jolly. harmony should prevail
and all unpleasantness cease; for there
are none too many of our people en-
joing health and perfect digestion. and
it should be everyone's duty not to add
