County Milk Inspection.

With no provision made for city
milk inspection here, with the county
thickly dotted with small places
for the separation of cream and with
state inspection of necessity car
ried on but once or twice in several
weeks, there seems to be demand
for one thorough and steady inspec-
ton. Deputy State Inspector Will
H. Adams of Spokane has in COM
petent and thorough manner gone
over the greater portion of Yakima
county and has discovered that con-
ditions which are radically wrong
exist here. He has been compete ed
to close several PLACES and to con-
denim large quantities of cream. He
has discovered that many of the
places are filthy and dirty and the
milking is done with entirely wrong
methods. Much danger lies in poor
butter, in poor cream and bad milk.
The only system, and the system
which Deputy Inspector Adams states
would cover the field adequately
would be provision for county in
spection. The difficulty caused by
the county fruit inspection makes it
doubtful II the appointment of such
an inspector would be in the power
of the county commissioners. Some
method of proper dairy inspection IS
a crying need, however, and it is to
be hoped that arrangements for such
may be made.

Friday evening at 8 o'clock after a
long illness. She died of complica-
ton of diseases. DR.. and Mrs. Zedi-
ker were making a pleasure trip for

to the Sound, but on the way Mrs.
Zediker was taken seriously i'll, and
three of Tacomas best physicians
were called. At that time she was
in very low condition and it was
thought she would not survive, and
she was brought home. They arriv-
ed home Wednesday morning, and
since has been in very critical con-
dition. Some doctors pronounced
her disease tuberculosis, while others
declared it an internal growth from
which she could not recover.
Mrs. Zediker was born in New
York state September %, 1912. She
was married to DR.. Zedker AZ years
ago. and came to North Yakima with

In preparation a work which will be
From personally residing among the
indians, learning their language and
hearing their folklore he has alb
sorbed a vast amount of information
which he will put in print and which
will preserve to great extent the
stories of the tribe. What his his
tory may lack in literary style will
be made up in a method of vigorous,
breezy Western expression such as
Mr.. Splawn alone commands. This
form of preserving records will
mean much to the coming genera
tons, but l.. " McWhorter, who has
had wide experience in the study of
ethnology furnishes suggestion
which would be well to carry out.
Mr.. McWhorter believes that mu-
scum may be established for the pre-
servation of relics of the Indian
tribes. Mr.. McWhorter suggests that
a space be set aside in the new public
library for this purpose. There are
several collections in the city which
would make very presentable APP
pearance and which contain much of
great interest in connection with the
history of the Yakima. In few
years the traces of early Indian his
tory will be nearly obliterated. Rap
idly the stamping grounds of the
early Indians are surrounding to the
civilization of the white man and
there seems no time like the pres
ent to make every attempt to secure
all antiquities possible bearing on
the history of the Indians of this To-
cality. The Yakimas were great In
dams and no more interesting story
can be found than in the story of
their past. 1t is of vital Importance to
preserve the records which they
have left in the shape of the
weapons, utensils and paraphernalia.
These are veritable human docu-
ments reciting most interesting stor-
les. In addition there are many pic
tographs which are becoming ex-
ceedingly faint and which should be
as they are of great his
torical value. An association could
do these things easily and no doubt
there are enough men and women
in the Yakima valley interested in
the Indian lore to make such an Or
ganization successful.
