LIGHT FOR
PROSECUTOR

Deputy Prosecuting Attorney
Laughon this morning registered a
kick with the county commission
ers concerning the facilities for
lighting the suite of rooms in which
the county attorneys are at times
forced to use after darkness. For
three nights this week, the deputy
prosecutor stated, he has been
forced to work evenings on the
Dignan law suit. The lighting ap-
paratus was by no means adequate
for the work, which was very try
ing to the eyes. He appealed to
the county board to have decent
lights, not only for evening work
but also for what work will have
to be done in the afternoons of the
short days of the winter season.
Just what the difficulty is with
the gas is not known. 1t may be
that the pipes need overhauling and
cleaning. At any rate, Commits
sioneEs Collin said that he would
confer with the gas company Off
Gals.

CRANBERRY
CROP SHORT

Owing to late frosts last spring
the great American cranberry crop
is now estimated short about 100,-
600 barrels. If this great shortage
prevails the price Of tart berry,
nearly ready to harvest, will be
very steep about Thanksgiving day.
Here are some facts about the
curious cranberry:
Name derived from Crane Berry.
Is native to America.
Cultivated largely in Massachu-
sets, New Jersey and Wisconsin.
Is a firm, red, acid berry.
Cultivated in swamps and boys.
which can be flooded to protect the
vines from frost.
Crop gathered by hand, but de-
vices have been invented to facili-
tate the work.
Crop is distributed over the whole
country, and some is exported.
Chief use is for jelly to eat with
turkey and other meats, and as a
filling for pies and tarts.
There are three cultivated varie-
ties, differing slightly in shape of
the berry.
The 1900 crop of cranberries was
887,516 bushels, equal to 329,172
barrels.
Crop is distributed in barrels. 1t
is retailed from the barrel in gro
ceries.
Owing to its qualities and the
time OF year when it natures, the
cranberry keeps very WELL 1t can
be kept throughout the winter in
storage.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-11-03

The total casualties for passen-
gers was 10,577, or about the popu-
lation of Mankato, MINI.
The employees Jared worse than
the passengers. There were 1913,
or more than two per day, killed in
train accidents, and 1852, about the
population of Temple, Tex, injured.
This makes a total equivalent to
the population of Everett, Wash,
or Madison, Ind
In other train accidents there
were 246S employees killed-more
than six daily-and 3S,744 injured,
about the population of Little
Rock, Ark, or Springfield, o.
The total of employees killed in
every way was 1866, and injured
1876, or a total of 49,062 casual
ties, or as much as the populations
of Aurora, Ill.,, and Everett, Wash,
combined.
The grand total of casualties.
passengers and employees, is SO, 639,
the same as if every resident of
Evansville, Ind, or Hoboken, N. j.,
had been lost on a battlefield like
that of Mukden.
