Made In Troy"
Chemical Plant Soon be in Operation.

The first annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Troy Chemical &
Manufacturing Co. was held at the
Office of ]. F. Ogden last Saturday eve
ming. Nearly all of the stockholders
were present and considerable interest
was shown in the meeting. The re-
ports of the different officers showed
that the company is in excellent con-
dition, and by placing another small
amount of stock on the market there
will be sufficient funds with which to
start the plant and begin operations.
After disposing of the routine bust
ness the stockholders proceeded to the
election of directors for the ensuing
year. The following directors were
chosen by unanimous vote of all the
stockholders present: Hugh Rovill, S.
A. Anderson, John Linthicum, A. H.
Oversmith and Peter Brown. After
the adjournment of the stockholders
the new board OF directors met and
the following officers were chosen,
president and general manager, Hugh
Rovill; vice president, A. H. Over
smith; secretary and treasurer, S. A.
Anderson. The directors decided to
place a limited amount of stock on the
market at so cts. per share to raise
enough money to complete the plant
and put it in working order. Under
the new patent process Of making tar
and other by-products of wood, large
profits should be realized by the COM
pany, as they have the exclusive right
to the patent. Such an industry will
do much to build up Troy and the
surrounding country 1t will give en-
ployment to a number of people and
will also be of great assistance to many
settlers for they will have home mar
ket for timber and wood that is now
wasted. The character of the men
elected to manage the affairs of the
Company is a guarantee in itself that
Troy will soon have a very important
industry in operation. 1t is the in
tention of the present board to build a
number OF other factories as soon as
the present factory is in successful
operation.

About 100 feet of the west end of
Duthie's main warehouse collapsed
Wednesday morning under the weight
of snow on the roof. The building is
a total loss, but the grain, being sacked
and well piled, is but little damaged.
Occurring early in the morning, no one
was in the part that fell. A force Of
men and boys was put to work shovel
ing snow and clearing up the debris.
The grain will be shipped at once to
save extra handling and prevent dam
age from the weather.

The Fertile Potlatch.

AS evidence of what can be done by
a farmer in the Potlatch section of the
Inland Empire the experience of W..
w. Wilcox, of Driscoll ridge south of
Troy, is pretty good evidence. Mr..
Wilcox gives US the following bit of
interesting evidence regarding this
point. He says: This year I had
thirty acres from which I got $210
worth of white navy beans; $192
worth of hay; 100 sacks of good pc
tatoes, and still have thirty sacks of
potatoes in the ground which will
dig and market in the spring"
Figuring the potatoes at fifty cents per
sack the total income from the thirty
acre tract was $6o7 or little better
than $22.2O per acre.
Nor is the experience OF Mr.. Wilcox
something not within the possibility oi
every farmer of this crest section,
where corn and beans grow and ma
ture, making it unnecessary to let any
portion of the farm land lie idle once
every three years. True, Driscoll
ridge soil is exceedingly fertile, and
wonderfully productive, but that is true
of the entire Potlatch country and that
is why the Potlatch is the Cream oi
Creation. That is why farm land
here is worth great deal more than it
is now selling for and why land values
are certain to advance materially.

How To Do 1t.

An eastern exchange gives the fol-
lowing set of rules for the guidance Of
rural route patrons:
1-Do not stamp letters, particularly
in the winter, as the carrier has taken
off his mittens and will spend some
time in any event looking for pennies.
2-Avoid placing the correct change
in the box as the carrier carries a
bank in his vest pocket.
3-H you desire two cent stamp,
a postal card or stamped envelope, do
not write your needs on a slip of paper
thus annoying the carrier. Just drop
your money in the box. The carrier
is mind reader and will know what
you want.
1--WE most earnestly advise buy
ing postal cards one at time, request
ing the carrier to wait while you write
it. 1t is so pleasant when the ther-
mometer is about zero, and it is rest
for the horse.
5-Please attach your mail box to
tree or the fence, as they are to serve
the carrier as a guide during storms
and deep snow.
6-Report the carrier every time you
are not otherwise engaged. 1t will
make him alert and happy.
In telephoning to the carrier to
bring out couple of pillow points and
a twenty-five pound sack of flour drop
an apple in the box-not dime, mind
as apples help to make horse's hair
shine and look slick.
8-Under no circumstances place a
spare-rib in the box, as the only record
Of rural carrier eating any meat was
made five years ago when farmer
who had slaughtered twenty-five hogs
gave the carrier liver for his Christ
mas dinner.

in Minnesota, where few years ago
the principal industry was numbering,
is authority for the statement that the
independent mills have disappeared
that what little timber is left is in the
hands of the Wyerhauser timber syn
dicate. We asked Mr.. Olson what
stumpage was now worth in Minnesota,
and he said he did not know but it was
very high, and that lumber had be-
come luxury. At Brainard he said
the timber had almost disappeared and
the people were now turning their at
tention to making farms out of stump
lands. So scarce has lumber become
and SO valuable is it that houses are
now being made out of paper. He
said that paper mills are springing up
wherever there is any kind of refuse or
scrubby timber from which pulp can
be made, and from this they are actual
ly making paper lumber. These paper
boards are very strong and SO hard
that one can scarcely cut them with a
knife. All the lumber or wood used is
the fran which is covered with paper
lumber and makes a most excel
lent building. There is no doubt
to the truth of the above and there
is no doubt about the fact that there is
great scarcity of lumber in the United
States. Not that there is not sufficient
lumber to supply the present needs OF
the nation but the visible supply will be
reduced to mere nothing within the
next quarter of century and long be-
fore the men who are now selling
their timber claims for mere song are
old enough to be oslerized they will
wonder why they were so foolish as to
sell timber for dollar or two stumpage
and throw in good piece of land in
bargain. The advice of the best au-
thorities is to hold timber.
