sceive letter to be sent out in the
course of few days by DR.. P. M. Hall,
commissioner of health. This Is cir
cular prepared by the health depart
ment for the guidance Of mothers in
the care of their babies, particularly
that SO many little ones die from chol-

this loss of life is due largely to lack
of proper attention by the mothers.

some simple rules for the care Of in
fants, advising dailya4lib baths, plenty
of fresh air, but care being taken to
avoid the sun. When the babe is tlurs-
ing the mother should avoid both beer

Considerable attention is given to
bottle feeding, as it is the poor young
sters who are deprived Of the mother 8
milk who most readily fall prey to
summer complaints. The proper prepa-
ration of bottled food is given in detail
and extreme caution is urged in the use
Of the bottles, which should be thoroly
cleansed every day. Both the nipple
and bottle should be scrubbed after
each meal with scrubbing brush used
for no other purpose.
A table as to the proper amount of
food for children from the day of thei-
birth until a year Old is given. They
should have no table food until fully
a year old, and there should be no fruit
given in hot weather. At the first sign
Of summer complaint, stop the milk, is
the warning. These circulars will &C

NOUNCED BY BISHOP HARTzELL.

Grounds for Action of Powers to End

Kreuger Overratsd.

African colonization offers no solu-
ton for the negro problem Of the
United States. This is the verdict of
Rev. J. G. Hartzell, Methodist Episco-
pal bishop for Africa. Bishop Hartzell
has worked among Africans for many
years, first as chief secretary for the
Southern Educational society, when he
became familiar with African condi-
tlons, and for the last ten years he has
lived in Africa,
Tt is little short of criminal to ship
a load Of American negroes to Africa
and expect them to settle there said
he today. "Why should an man,
white or black care to leave the United
States, anyhow If the negro wishes to
go to Africa, let him go as white man
would, as a doctor, mechanic, teacher or
missionary. Africa has no promise for
him as colonist, and he will do much
better to remain in the United States.
Africa is a great country and no
man can set limit to it's possibilities.
Its natives are capable of great ah
vancement and respond readily to the
teachings Of the missionary and the
instruction of the industrial school.
"SOuth Africa has had a great man,
Cecil Rhodes. :, He has been as much lied
about as was George Washington in his
lifetime. His dream of empire was not
a selfsh5Sone, and the fortune he built
has been devoted to the country from
whence it came. :, The Rhodes scholar

HIGH PINE HELPS
WEST COAST MILLS
RECENT BOOST IN PINE EQUAL
ICES LOCAL MARKET.
For Years Western Lumber Makers
Have Sought Lower Freight Rates
to Compete for Trade Here But the
Market Is Opened to Them by Nat
ural Conditions.

Because Of the recent increase in
white pine prices, the Puget Sound lum-
bermen at last find their product on a
parity with pine in this market. What
they have striven for years to gain by
lower freight rates has been opened to
them by natural conditions. But in
the meantime other conditions have de-
not affect the local price situation.
Western fir for INSIDE finish is on a
parity with white pine for the first
time in the matter of price, and has
yellow pine bested from ST. to So
thousand feet. Frame fir from the
coast. and common lengths and dimen-
sion, f. O: b.. on cars in Minneapolis is
only so cents a. thousand higher than
white pine. - -"
Were it not for the coastwise and
export trade Of western mills, it is very
likely that Minneapolis would have a
plethora of fir lumber and a correspond
ing reduction in prices. 49,
J. P. Lansing of the Puget Sound
Mills & Timber company explains that
certain mills are only 800 feet from the
dock where the export and coastwise
timber is loaded on vessels. The com
pany's interest in the lumber ceases as
soon as it is dumped at the vessel Is
side. The shipment is on cash basis
and the buyer loads the lumber. II
does not have to be seasoned and there
is no worry about freight. The rail
| roads require lot Of frame, timbers
l. for their extensive extension work. The
mill loads the consignment on the cars
of the railroad company on practically
cash basis. The roads do not care tC
have the stuff seasoned, and as in the
case of the water trade, it is right
from the saws to the consumer, with nc
worry about freight.
Shipments to Minneapolis, however,
would be on an entirely different basis
The lumber must be seasoned, loaded
on cars and pushed thru to destination
by the manufacturer, then the consigned
expects time, in addition to the weel
! or so consumed in transit. It readily
will be seen why. with prices no bet
ter than white pine, the local market
has no particular charms for the west
ern manufacturers.
