DR.. Gilchrist, county health phys
ician, and DR.. Culp report two cases
Of arsenic poisoning from eating toma-
toes that have been sprayed with paris
green. 1t takes but small particle OF
arsenic to poison and the physicians
suggest that every one should wipe
of the tomatoes thoroughly before
eating them. Where they are peeled
there is some danger of the poison
getting onto the hands and in turn
onto the peeled tomato. 1t is best TO
wipe the tomato thoroughly before
breaking the skin. -Wenatchee World.

With a view to starting a starch
factory in the Methow valley, near
Twisp, c. w. Stinson, Of Portland,
Me-, is in the valley investigating its
possibilities in the way of producing
potatoes. Mr.. Stinson says that if he
can make contracts for the delivery of
$4,000 bushels by the ranchers he
will most probably have the factory in
operation next fall.
He examined the potatoes grown on
number of ranches here and ex-
pressed surprise at the enormous yields
on the dry ranches. On the Will
liam Bartell ranch, adjoining the town
site on the west, he took from a single
stalk four potatoes the smallest of which
weighed nineteen and the largest
twenty-five ounces.
Mr.. Stinson expresses the belief po-
tatoes from here carry higher per-
centage OF starch than the eastern
grown.

Taxes are Reasonable.

The Oconto Enterprise, in an
article which appeared last week,
made some statements which
might be misconstrued by its
readers, with reference to tbs
proposed Stephenson county.
1t is natural that Bro. Badour
would object to losing any terri
tory from Oconto county, but
that does not signify that the new
county is not essential to the best
welfare and rapid development
of the section proposed to be set
off.
With reference to taxation we
wish to say that the taxes in For
est county are by far lower than
in Oconto county. The entire
county tax, for all purposes, lev
led and apportioned upon the
Town of Wabeno, by the County
Board of Supervisors for 1906
amounted to 81 1453 80, being six
teen per. cent. of the total levy.
The fact that the rate of taxa
ton is higher in the Town of Wa
beno this year than usual, is all
due to the large local appropria-
tons at the last annual Town
Meeting last spring, the same be-
ing necessary, primarily, on ac-
count of the construction and
maintenance of a number of new
schools in the Town during the
past year
Besides building and maintain
ing a number of country schools,
made necessary through the rap.
id increase of settlers in the coun-
try adjacent to the villages, the
citizens of the Town have con
structed two magnificent school
buildings; one at Wabeno, a fine
solid brick structure, elegantly
furnished, with six departments
at a cost Of $50, 10000: the other
at Carter, a good, substantial,
building, with four departments
at a cost Of over s., 900. Tn,
one at Wabeno is conceded to b,
the finest school building in Tia
county, if not in this section 0
the state.
The population has Increase
SO rapidly in this section the pas
two years that it also has bee
found essential TO expend consid
cradle money for the construc
ton of highways.
If there is any one thing tn
electors of the Town Of Waben
believe in, it Is in having goo
roads and better schools. TIL
! moneys appropriated by the PEG
pie has been used conservative,
J aud the taxpayers of the Tow
have something to show for tn
amount paid out in taxes.
The local appropriations ar
governed wholly by the elector
! of the Town and would be n
higher in the new Stephenso
/, county than n Forest or Ocontc

as petty thlevlng and pocket picking, In
order that he might live a life OF ease.
The two were arrested by the police OF
Kansas City and Martin was fined $500 and
costs, in default Of which he will spend
approximately one year at hard labor in
the Kansas City Workhouse The father of
the girl went 10 Kansas City Tuesday.

asked Dica II she would go home with her
father and promise 10 behave herself said
Mrs. Livingston. she refused to answer
the Judge and he said II she wouldn't he'd
have to send her 20 Jail, too. Then Diea
said Ia just as soon go with Martin TO
jail as TO go home, but I'll GO
She came home with her father. but
hardly spoke to him during, 1.-THE trip. When
she saw me she appeared so angry and

TO stay there. Her father and / are both
afraid we will simply have to send her TO

ture providing for a compulsory education
law for all children, white or black,
through the primary grades. The clubs
will establish more model schools as
soon as they can raise the necessary funds,

children until the population becomes large
enough TO warrant the state in establishing
school houses at intervals of two miles in
the mountain districts, as is done in the
lower sections.
