AN ATTRACTIVE WINDOW DISPLAY
Schwabacher Company Has Display
That Is Ahead Of Anything Ever
Before Seen in City.

All day yesterday many Main street
pedestrians stopped to look at the
Schwabacher cOmpany's G. A. r. and
Fourth of July window. The window is
easily away ahead of anything of it's
kind ever before seen in this city.
In the center of the window stands the
Goddess of Liberty in all her glory
holding aloft the white dove of peace.
This is all right as far as it goes but
a great array of firearms are also de-
picted in the window proving to the
world that Uncle Sam knows also how
to fight when the cause is just one.
A number Of interesting and ancient
implements of war are shown not the
least being the weapons used by the
frOntiersmen when they were called
upon to fight the Indians in these parts.
One firearm in the window is labelled
carried by a Schwabacher boy in the
Philippines" The nations colOrs are
draped in the window on scale both
lavish and artistic. In the background
is to be seen a splendid portrait of Pres
ident Roosevelt. From now and I'M
til after the Fourth the Schwabacher
window can be counted on to prove a
great attraction for Walla Wallans as
we'll as visitors in the city.

Wheat Fields Near Whitman
Station.

Patches of tumble mustard are be-
ginning to appear in the vicinity of
Whitman station and farmers in that
locality say that prompt action
must be taken to eradicate the nox-
ious weeds before they go to seed or
wheat fields will become overrun with
the pest by another year.
81 noticed a strange species Of weed
in one corner Of my fields and in the
county road below Whitman station
but did not realize what they were
until I read the other day about tumble
mustard making it's appearance in
various parts of the county," P. H.
Becker, a prominent farmer of the
Whitman district said Saturday even
ing Mr. Becker is of the opinion
that the county commissioners and
farmers in that vicinity should join
forces and stamp out the weed before
it spreads any further.
There is probably an acre in one
corner of my field that is infested with
the weed and 1 will destroy the patch
before the weeds go to seed. The road
