Aid Valley Ranehers

County Assessor Frank +. Bottorf
writes the MINER the suggestion that
the Calispel valley farmers whose crops
were totally or partially DESTROYED by
the unusually high water of this year,
are in his opinion entitled to some ex-
emptlon from taxation for the coming
year on account of this loss. Mr.. Bottorf
writes that the county commissioners
will be in session as board of euualiza-
ton from Aug. 3 to "a and that if those
who have suffered loss will petition the
board for exemption he will lay the
matter before the board and do what he
can in THEN interests.
The matter is up to the rancbers
Reports from the valley indicate that
the hay crop. is better than ever this
year but that those who had in grain
ana were reached by the high water
suffered the total loss of their CROPS
More tsfan usual land had been plowed
up this year and the suggestion that
taxes be exempted for this loss is emf
nently proper.

the members some trouble, for he was

We'll, have you ever seen COW graz

Yes; many time"
THAT is not phenomenon. And no
doubt you have often listened to a lark
singing merrily away up in the

Yes"
That, again. is not a phenomenon.

The English Channel.

One of the most famous bits of water
in the world is the English channel,
which separates and yet unites the Sis
ter countries of England and France
and has been the scene Of so much Of
their history. 1t extends on the Eng
lish side from Lands End to Dover
and on the French side from the island
of Ushant to Calais. Its entrance from
the German ocean is the strait Of Do
yer, twenty one miles wide, while at
the other extremity, where it joins the
Atlantic, it is 100 miles from shore to
shore. The greatest width midway is
$50 miles. Owing to the strong current
setting In from the westward, the high
winds which frequently prevail and
the confguration Of the shores 1t has
a roughness which has become proven
bal and few cross it without seasick-

kadiak islands Queer Climate.

OF the abnormal climate of Kadiak
island, Alaska. a writer says: In spite
Of its situation in such high ATTITUDES
we find here what may well be de-
scribed as the parting Of the ways be-
tween the arctic and more temperate
regions. For, thanks to the moderating
influence of the Japanese current
which flows along its southern coasts.
Kadiak is favored with climatic condi-
tons such as are unknown even in
places a few miles north or east of it
on the mainland of Alaska. So pro-
nounced is the demarcation line that
even on the island itself a traveller in
summer will suddenly emerge from
amid forests and vegetation Of almost
tropical luxuriance into barren, des-
olate land of silence, where lofty snow
capped mountains tower alOft, brood
Ing. as it were, over the past terrors of
an arctic winter, which will soon de-
scend once more. enveloping them in
its icy grip.
