splendid hospital for the sick, a neat
little church where services are held
almost every Sunday and all neces-
sary outhouses for storing food and

ADVANTAGE OF COMPETITION.

There are eleven separate and dis
tinct cotton seed oil mills in the
county and new ones are being built
every year, wherever there is enough
seed in a given locality to keep tn +,
mill running as long as four mouths
The fact that no two of these mills
ar" located in any Cne town and that
no two are owned directly or indi-
rectly by the same parties, gives the
farmers the double advantage OF tho
greatest possible competition in the
matter of selling seed and also in
buying fertilizers.

When the river steamer Hannaford

Captain Baughman, of the Hanna

The leaky boilers and flues will be
repaired within a few weeks and she

Seattle, July 2S.-The fishmen of
the city are extremely worried over
the light run of sockeye salmon this
year. The run which was expected
between July 3 and 90 failed to ma
terialize and as a consequence the
price Of sockeyes have gone from is
to 30 cents a piece.
a we'll known fish broker, in dis
cussing the situation said that this
years run should have been as fair
as last year. which was what is
known as the cycle Year, which comes
every fourth year and was good
one.
If the run continues to decrease in
comparison to what it has done
during the last year it will bring dis
astrous results to all the canneries
on Puget sound and British Columbia.
This years run is about the same as
the run two years ago, which was the
poorest of all the four years in the
cycle.
No cause for the decrease has been
ascertained
