Because"
"That's woman's reason"
"Well, Pm q woman. I say I

"Why, Sis, you couldn't pawn
that untrustworthy bauble for two
dollars, even if you needed the mon

thought of such thing. Do stop

handling of Alaska gold would prove q
good argument for the advancement o
the parcels post. The saving to the
miners is somewhat astonishing. One
bank in Seattle, the Washington Trust
Co., one of the big handlers of Alaska
gold, has saved $4,000 so far this
season thru its shipments by registered
post. In fact the bank has not ship
ped an ounce Of gold in any other way
for two years, since the government
consented to handle gold in the mails.
1t speaks we'll for the method that not
an ounce has been lost thru theft OF
otherwise.
The rates charged by the govern
ment is the regulation letter postage
two cents an ounce-with each package
limited in weight to four pounds. There
is, however, no limit to the number OF
packages and for shipment OF hall
million dollars there would be some
where around five hundred packages OF
gold bricks coming through the mail.
The packages are made up of from two
to three small bricks of gold and are
tied up in small canvas bags.
The mail route is the direct one over
the Valdez trail with dogs and sledges
in winter and with pack trains in sum-
mer. In transit, the gold, like the
other valuable mails, is in the custody
of the government contractors who
guard it very carefully. The govern
ment assumes no risk Of loss or theft
and the shippers carry the additional
cost of insurance. The saving is in the
transfer of the gold, the express COM
panies refuse to assume risk in transit
and the shipper here has to insure.

1t has been learned that A. M. Storch,
formerly of this city but for the past
three years a resident of Okanogan
county, is making an active campaign
for the appointment of register OF the

D. L. Gillespie, editor of the Brewster

receivership of that Office.
It is also understood that DR.. J. E.
Shore, at present chairman of the Che

tee, would like one Of these positions,
and that he will soon be in position
to go after it.

FARMERS WINTER COURSE
interesting Winter Course at the State
College, Pullman

The short winter course for farmers
at the State College will commence on
January 5th this winter, and continue
for ten weeks. The work is planned
out to cover the four leading lines OF
agriculture: horticulture, animal pro-
duction, dairying, and agronomy (soil
management and crop production)
and lectures in these various lines will
be given by specialists who not only
understand the theory of production,
but who are actually engaged in the
several branches of farming and fruit
growing.
The class work will consist Of reci-
tations and lectures with lessons as
signed in text books, and of library
work. There will be discussions of
budding, pruning, grating, the selec-
ton Of livestock, the testing of milk,
the use of cream separators, churning,
making butter and cheese; studies of
the physical properties of soil; studies
relative to the qualities of grain; lessons
to teach the students how to recognize
the seeds of noxious weeds.
Besides studies in the strictly agri-
cultural lines, there will be courses in
closely related branches, such as chem
istry, and agricultural bacteriology;
studies of insect pests; studies in plant
life; and studies in veterinary medicine,
and the treatment of farm animals.
For the benefit of those who desire
instruction in English and mathematics
a course will be offered in each of
these subjects. Methods of simple
computation will be taught, and les
sons will be given in correct writing
and speaking.
Perfect freedom will be given in the
selection of subjects. There are no
requirements for admission to the
course, and except in one or two in
stances, any person may take up the
work of any of the courses without pre-
vious instruction in that line.
The work this winter will be so ar
ranged that if student will take as
many courses as his time will permit,
he can complete all the work given
along one of the main lines of agricul
ture in two winter terms of two weeks
each. But if he wishes to take some
of the work along other lines, he may
proftably spend three winters, taking
new work each term.
There are a number of benefits to
be derived from taking these short
winter courses" said Professor George
Severance, head of the department of
agriculture at the State College. First,
the farmer will obtain a knowledge OF
the best agricultural practices of today;
second he will acquire a knowledge of
the sources of the best agricultural
literature; third, there is an inspiration
to be derived from coming in contact
with energetic and progressive men
from other sections of the state; fourth,
he will be encouraged in the habit OF
studying the agricultural problems OF
the day; and fifth, is the very enjoy
able period of recreation which it
offers, which in itself is worth the en-
tire cost of the course"

No candidate for the United States
senate, with barrel of money, will find
it necessary under the new direct pri-
mary law of this state to maintain an
elaborate suite of rooms at the Mitchell
hotel, Olympia, during the coming
session of the legislature. But the
Mitchell will have its crowd of polite
ians just the same. And it will be
composed OF women. There is no doubt
that the Woman Suffragists OF the state
who are demanding the privilege OF vot-
ing in all elections held in the state OF
Washington are getting the political
game down to a science. This week it
was announced that they had engaged
an elaborate suite of offices or rooms at
the Mitchell and that the leading Suf-
fragists of the state would make their
headquarters in Olympia during the
entire session OF the legislature. A
prominent lawyer has been retained to
draw up a constitutional amendment,
permitting women to vote, and 1t will
be submitted to the legislature.
The National League, which met
recently in annual session at Washing
ton, D. c., is following the Washington
movement with the greatest interest.
| 1t has been decided to hold the next
annual meeting of the National Congress
in Seattle. 1t will take place during
the exposition and the leading Suffrag-
lists of the u. S. will be here.

A report has been waited down from
the Waterville country that the Nor
them Pacific is getting ready to extend
the line westward to Waterville. W..
T. Darling chief engineer OF the Nor
them Pacific spent several days in
Coulee City the first of the week look
ing over the grades west of there.
The building of the G. MS branch
up Moses Coulee is attracting the at
tention of the N. P. and they may
possibly hurry construction into central
Douglas county in order to be first
into this rich farming district that is
now without railroad service. The
N. P. already has grade for several
miles west of Coulee City, and it would
only require a little filing in and the
laying of the steel to finish the road.
