Back to the Horses.

We are to have revival of coaching.
At least that is the report which reaches
us from abroad. Alfred Vanderbilt, al.
ways friend of the horse, has arranged
to put twenty horses in training at Rea-
hill farm for the purpose of indulging in
the good old-fashioned pastime of coach,
ing next spring. Mr.. Vanderbilt is not
stranger to the automobile, but with
him and many other genuine lovers OF
the horse, automobiling has been only a
passing fancy.
The entry of Mr.. Vanderbilt into the
coaching field on larger scale will have
a tendency to draw away from the motor
car large and fashionable following in
support of the we'll bred, stylish horse
Mr.. Vanderbilt is reported as being
anxious to bring this about, and it is
said that he will spare neither energy
nor expense to make the sport popular
His horses will be the most beautiful
and best trained that money can buy
His coaches will be splendid vehicles
capable of carrying large parties com
fortably. 1t will be remembered thai
Mr.. Vanderbilt was one of the successful
exhibitors at the recent international
horse show, and his present scheme te
revive coaching is the natural outgrowth
of that success.
There is no doubt but that Mr.. Van
derbilt will have large immediate fol
lowing, for the king himself and many
of the members of the English aristoc
racy are born horsemen and only neeo
some one to lead them away from the
motor cars.
1t goes without saying that if coaching
is revived on magnificent scale in Eng
land, it will soon find followers in this
country with the means and disposition
to maintain the sport in grand style
We have no end of horse lovers who
have tired of the mechanics of motoring
With them it has been a fad, followed
because of its novelty. These same mel
long for the horse, the life and style
and pleasurable interest machine can
not give, and as soon as there is popu
lar leader to take the field the friends o.
the horse will not be slow to follow th'
fashion thus created.
At the present time there is goo6
demand for high class coach horses, a
good prices. During the past few year.
there has been something of let-up IL
breeding. With the revival OF coachins
and a general restoration Of the horse t
favor, we may expect to find the demant
for good hammered, stylish horses far II
excess of the supply. Breeders who ar
far-sighted enought to forestall coming
fashions will reap good profit on theil
judgement. 1t is we'll for breeders t
get ready for the growing demand To-
good horses. Y. Horseman.

Are Pigs Clean Animals ?

A well-known pig breeder has tried
the experiment of constructing bath
for his hogs, and claims they like 1t. he
states that the trouble is that all the
pigs want to get into the bath at the
same time. The bath Is used 80 often
that Il keeps the skins Of the hogs and
nigs a,vays clean. The pig is naturally
: clean animal, in spite Of all opinions tc
the contrary. It vii! never SOIL the nes'

T. 8 Burwell of Elmwood Stock Farm,

L. S. Burwell of Elmwood Stock Farm,
Bridport, VT, has about 80 merino sheep
among which are some very fine speci'
mems. He sold two rams q few years
ago for $500 and $500 respectively and
his present stock ram, L. S. B., 54l, he
considers to be better than either OF
those he sold. He has some very fine
lambs, which were sired by this valuable
ram. In a recent letter to the American
Sheep Breeder, Mr.. Burwell says: III
have been successful as breeder 1t IL
because would never let good stock
ram 90 unless had something as good
to take his place. / never took any
stock in luck. Success comes by at
tending to business. I have had ram:
that my neighbors have used and

The sheep fiocks will never be protect
ed from worthless dogs by legislation.
Years of effort In behalf of sheep pro-
lection have convinced US Of this: II the
flocks are ever made reasonably safe
from the ravages of vicious dogs it will
be through the individual efforts OF the
flock masters. There are many thou
sands of dogs that can be spared without
serious loss to the country. Every
sheep owner should be willing to do his
part toward Kidding the country OF these
destructive pests.

Horses for All Kinds Of Service.

n0fSeS Tor All k1noS OF Service.
The thoroughbred for blood and
speed.
The trotter and PAGER for blood and
speed and road.
The Arabian for beauty, gentleness
and endurance.
The Morgan for beauty, quickness and
general use.
The Percheron for strength and quick,
heavy service.
The heavier draught breeds have their
use.
All OF these need mingling of pure
blood, for in the blood excellences every
quality may be found. Well bred mares
of all breeds having good size and form
make the most desirable dams for each
and every kind of service, for it insures
size, for mares are the molds to be filed
with gold, or silver, or steel. 1t does
not pay to fill molds with the baser
metals nor with the poorer horseflesh.
These are the methods to breed for any
special purpose. Quality and service
reside in the blood of each and all of the
breeds, but without blood there cannot
be excellence.
Civil service proves the ability of per-
sons for special kinds of service. Prac-
tical education is essential for all of the
mechanic arts, as well as for every spe-
cial business demand Actual tests
prove the relative abilities for all kinds
of service of man or beast of every
nationality or breed. 1t is the ability to
render the best for any and every pur-
pose.
These tests are demanded of men and
women, then why not of horses? Quail
ity is demanded in all of our animal
products of whatever kind. A 15-hand
horse of 1000 pounds that can render the
work demanded costs less to buy or
keep than the largest and heaviest horse
that costs more time and more money;
economy says use the best that renders
the best service. The quick enduring
service is the demand of horse flesh.
The horse that can do the work, 60 the
distance and last longest is the animal
that yields the service best and cheap
est. By testing the breeds at draught,
at the plow, on the road, under the sad
die or harnessed to every kind of vehicle,
we will find the animal and breed that
answers the required demands.
The police and fire departments need
quick, efficient service of good blood
and proper size and weight in the horses
for their special line of service.
We need the best of every breed of
horses for each and every purpose. And
the tests will prove the most serviceable
animal and nothing else can.-Dr. A. S.
Heath in New England Farmer.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING

cupying SO much ground, makes the
question of securing property for this

GREAT FUTURE" SAYS THE

Regarding the future of Wenat-

the Big Red Apple metropolis will
reach in size many thousands of peo-
pie and from the present prospects
it may become bird city Of import

years will become railroad center
in a modest way. The building of
the Milwaukee to that place will con-
tribute materially toward fastening
the growth of Wenatchee. There are
few places in the west more FORUM
ately situated to insure the making
of an important city than Wenat-
Chez 1t is the key to the vast scope
of country lying north to the boun-
Diary line, country that will at
some time support large popula-
ton, and the supplies for that popu-
lation should be drawn from Wenat-
chez, while the products of the coun-
try should naturally flow through
that place. 1t is on the right side
of the river to make a big town, it
has no dangerous competitor within
a radius of many miles, and there
is large and rich territory directly
tributary to it, The people seem to
be public spirited and progressive,
and as the progress and prosperity
of any place depends upon the viii
ingness of it's citizens to push their
home to the front and this great
factor of united effort is strongly in
it's favor Wenatchee may never reach
the size of Spokane and Seattle, the
two chief cities of the state, about
will reach high up in the thousands,
and may become the third city Of inl-
portance in Washington.

Going After the Squirrels.

Responding to a letter of inquiry
as to what northern Douglas must
do to secure the examination of
squirrels by the incubation route as
developed at the State Agricultural
College the following letter has been
received, which is good news for the
country:
Pullman, Wash, March 20, 1907.
Mr.. U. P. Waldrip,
Bridgeport, Wash.
Dear Sir:-There are many errors
in surmises as to the manner which
the u S. Department of Animal Hus-
bandry goes at it to kill squirrels
The virus is handled by experts in the
regular employ of the government,
and could not be handled by one who
did not understand it. AS soon as
We have passed the virus through a
set of squirrels and recovered it, We
expect to be able to get out into the
field. Have filed your letter for ref
erence. Yours truly,
S B. NELSON.
AS is perhaps well known, a SPUR
rel doped with this virus spreads
a very contagious and fatal disease
among his fellows, as does every one
that gets it, so that few of them
fixed in a given vicinity is all that
is needed there for two or three
years.
An urgent statement of the situa-
ton in this end of the county has
been sent in since the receipt of the
above letter, so it seems reasonable
to expect the Operator" in northern
Douglas at the proper time.-Bridge-
port Republican.

"UNWRITTEN LAW" RUNNING
RIOT.

There will very soon have to be
revision of the impression that the
"unwritten law" prevails more gen.
orally in the south than in the north.
Probably the reason why this idea ex-
listed has been because the occasion
for it occurred more frequently in
the south, but with the apparent
present drift of public sentiment the
1t is not good for the nation that this
should be so. To approve or defend
the unwritten law simply means a
resort to lawlessness, and if lawless-
ness is to be excused in one direc-
ton it will be excused in others. 1t
is a step toward anarchy.
A remarkable condition of things
is now witnessed at Loon Lake, in
Stevens county, this state. A con-
fessed murdered was permitted to go
at large with the consent of the Of
fcers of the law, whose sworn duty
it is to take him into custody and
hold him for trial. His murderOus
deed is approved, it is said, by the
community in which he lives. He
is lauded for the taking of human
life. And why? Because, it is
claimed, his act is sanctioned under
the ''unwritten law"
1t is astonishing that among a
sober and intelligent people this
sentiment toward the unwritten law
should be permitted to run riot in
this fashion. To permit and to en-
courage it is to invite serious public
danger. 1t will establish Jurls-
prudence Of law, and it is hard to
see how the two can flourish side
by side. One or the other must pre-
vail in the end. Is it to be the
Jurisprudence of lawlessness?
A man can not be more grossly
wronged than by having his home in
vaded and it's sanctity violated, but
for such injury there are legal rem
edies. Under the stress of emotion
these remedies may appear to be to-
tally inadequate to do justice to out
ragged honor. Divorce from faith
less wife, legal prosecution of the
despOiler of virtue may seem to af-
ford little satisfaction. But what
more is accomplished by branding
ones self as murderer, law
breaker of the worst kind? Are the
children of Hesner any less disgraced
now, when in addition to the alleged
frailty of their mother their father
is a murderer? Has any real good
been accomplished?
On the other hand, is not the fav-
orable sentiment of the community
toward the slayer, the cOndoning and
justifying of his crime in their
minds, deplorable evidence of moral
and legal retrogression? If it were
universally admitted that man may
be put to death with impunity by an
injured husband, the latter having
the right to determine the mode of
execution. be it ever so cowardly,
legislation might be secured to legal
ize 1t. But it is not so admitted as
right even by a majority, and the IL
legality of the act is unquestionable.
Those who countenance and encour-
age such lawlessness should take
thought of the ultimate conse-
quences.-Spokesman-Review.

when the construction of the present
Stevens school was in contemplation,
there were those who objected most
strongly to the construction of a
building of that size, believing that
the city would never be large enough
to justify one of that capacity. Since
then two more buildings have been
added and from the statement made
by Supt Brown another one will be
needed very soon.

Col. Owens's assiduous work in this

Railroad Meeting VIII
Be Held This Af-
ternOOn

J. L. Gillespie, representing the Ar
kansas 81 Oklahoma Northwestern
railroad, did not return to the city
yesterday afternoon IN time to attend
the railroad meeting which was
scheduled for 4:30. He went out to
the camp of the surveyors west of
town and failed to get back when he
expected TO do 50, on account Of the
bad roads.
The meeting which was TO have been
held yesterday will therefore be held
this afternoon. Mr.. Gillespie is in
town today, having returned from the
camp late yesterday afternoon.
The Surveyors have located the line
about two miles south Of Estella, and
will therefore come into town from
the west, probably passing thru the
southern part Of town, as the line will
go to the southeast from here into the
Spavinaw country. These matters,
however, will all be brought up this
afternoon in the meeting.
