 After most successful term of eight months, our school closed last Friday. Prof. Vaughn is an able teacher and the closing exercises de- monstrated wonderful advancement. The new court house if built, is a natural consequence whether the county is divided or not. The people who pay two-thirds of county reve nue, have already decided that Dun can is the place for it.
 An ice plant, d newspaper, lum- Der yard, a telephone system. a bakery, another up-to date hotel, few cottages to rent. are few of the enterprises being agitated and are actual necessities here now.
 A slight misundersta nding between the management of the Steeple Rock Development company and party ot investors from Fl PasO, came near resulting in serious trouble. It is un derstoud that everything has been adjusted and that the ma Ghinery will be installed at once at the mines.

CLIFTON 5, MORENCI 2.
The Local Team Easily Defeats the Wis.,
 itOrS in a Snappy Game.

The reported Morenci invlncibles met with a sad misfortune on the local dia mond last Sunday afternoon
 when the new Clifton team defeated
 them in an easy game by the score of 52. As usual, the visitors came down confident of victory, but to their surprise they found that it was not the old Clifton team, but new one composed of ball players properly placed. The placing of players has always been hobby of Manager Pitt and in this department he displays excellent judgment. In order to take some of the cOnceit out of the visit ors who have recently made life miserable for the Clifton team, Manager Pitt secured the services of Baroldy, pitcher formerly connect ed with the Clifton team, and the way he made the Morenci sluggers lay it down was a source of comment in the grand stand. Just fourteen of the Morenci boys died at home plate and the good hitters, as well as the pun 1dhhCo luS OA CNNC Ai ShSAA efforts to connect. From the very start it could be seen that the visit OTIS, who are accustomed to having things their own way, were displaying the white feather. The game rocked along until the fourth inning before score was made and few men reach ed first up to that time. In the first half of the fourth Morenci scored a run and their friends came forth with an uprOar, but the Clifton en- thusiasts answered the echo when the locals punched five hits in their half and scored three runs. After this calamity the Morenci team be- ca me discouraged and Brubaker got angry and from that time on it was ''cherries" for Clifton.
 From the Clifton point of view this is the first ball game of the season and now that first blood has been drawn it is not likely that our sister city will have such an easy thing in the future, in fact they may not win another game this season. The local team is now in good shape and the 1 boys are devoting some attention to batting practice, which showed up some in Sundays game.
 Some work was done on the diamond l and it has been demonstrated that l tailings on the sand are just the | thing. The executive committee of | the base ball club will get busy at | once and raise funds for the purpose | of fixing the grounds and buying new | suits, now that we have a first-class | team.
 Manager Cummings, of the Mo | renci team, is a true sport, but does | not belleve that Clifton can beat | i'm again. There will be no game next | Sunday, as Morenci will play Fl PasO.
 The following is the record of the | game as it appeared to the score |

Notes of the Ball Game by Booster.

Clifton took the shine off those new Morenci suits.
 Age certainly shows itself at times Old Mac took nap at first.
 Fourteen Morenci braves chopped the atmosphere-fne work, Baroldy.
 Morenci should not be underrated, as they certainly have d good team.
 Let the ladies get busy and furnish a couple foul flags" for the benefit of the umpire.
 New suits are badly needed by the Clifton team and the fans should give them boost in this line.
 A regular ''swatfest" in one inning demonstrating what can be done after little batting practice.
 Clifton, use your ''gray matter when there are runners on bases and no out. Sacrifice the runners along every little bit helps.
 Home runs are fine, but do not for get that they are as scarce as old maids in Clifton. The little single is what counts.
 A certain gentleman at Solomon vile is determined that Baroldy shall remain there. Do not be selfish let Clifton have him at least part of the time.
 Take that band off your hat and do little more evening practice. We may have another game before the season is over. Ball players are like race horses-they do their best when in constant training.

much better plan, however, to grow
peas with the oats and cut them for
silage.
AS hay of the mixed grasses varies
so much in composition, it would be
impossible to give any definite infor-
nation regarding the compromising of
a ration containing it.
1t is, of course. to be understood
that these rations should serve only
as q guide to the feeder and that, in
order to be successful, he must study
the needs of each COW and vary the
ration accordingly.

can be made, and the third at the

The Ellensburg Capital says At
one time Kittitas County was the ban
ner dairy and creamery section of this
state, but the COW has been pushed to
the rear and our fame and a good
deal of money went with her, for the
monthly payroll is missing. The Cap
ital believes that change is work
ing in our midst. More talk about the
COW is being heard, and many say If
the milking machine is success they
will re-engage in the business. as the
disagreeabe work of milking has had
much to do with keeping them out OF
the industry. One thing is certain,
and that is that when the COW is re-
stored to her old place in Kittitas
Valley our prosperity will be material
ly increased.

produce ready for market; he knows
that if you are not properly posted
on the packing, shipping and market

The Letter of The Law.
This institution has complied with
every provision of the new Paulhamus
commission law, and we shall comply
with every clause of that law to the
letter at all times. We have put up
to the state $4,000 bond and we are
effectually bound to do business
squarely, accurately and satisfactorily,
or we shall lose not only the $4,000
but also our license to continue in
business.
This house is, therefore, not only re.
liable and trustworthy because of the
high character of its personnel, but
the state in this manner guarantees
that it shall be operated on safe and
sound and honest business principles.
Very few commission houses in the
state of Washington have complied
with and taken advantage of this legal
insurance. We are there and will stay
as long as the law remains.
We are satisfied that we can make
and save money for you. All we now
ask Is that you get in communication
with us and get thoroughly posted
on our methods and investigate as
to the truth of what we have been try
ing to tell you. We want to conduct
your market business for you and
prove to you that it will pay you to
let us handle your business, your
marketable produce. All that we shall
ask for all this service is the 10 per

vided for by law.
So write to us at your earliest con-
venience and let's get acquainted.
