LA DIFTERiA EN- LAS AYES.
-Esta enfermedad eminentemente
contagiosa es gravfsima. La difte-
ria es tanto mas grave, cuanto que
son varias las formas en- que Sc pre-
senta y por consiguiente dificilfsimo
su diagnostico.
Las fluxiones, los males de oios y
la garganta,' ia tos, la delgadez, son
las form as bajo las cuales Sc presen-
ia a me nudo. Ell pico y ell gargdero
Sc recubren de paquenas manehas
blancuzcas.
Desde el momento que un ave a.
parece atacada, 10 primero que Sc de
be hacer es aislarla para evitar Ell con
tagio, mejor aun sacrificarla, sino
es de gran valor: despues Sc emplean
las medidas preventivas para garan
tlr ell lugar que ocupaba. Sc limpia-
ra con cuidado y Sc aireara, regando
ell suelo y paredes con aqua fenicada;
Sc lavaran con la misma aqua los &C
medores, los molinos de granos los
cacharros de beber y los dormideros
Sc cubrira tambien ell suelo de paja
o de planchas de MADEIRA, con ell fin
de que las aves esten en- un lug al
completamente seco.
Sc debera tam bien mezclar, du-
rante algunos dfas, a la pasta G
pan mojado, un POGO por eabeza,
polvos compuestos de la siguiente
manera:
Silicato de sosa 20 gramos
Cubeba pulverizada so gramos
Jengibre pulverizado 40 gramos
Quinquina girls pulverizada 100
gramos
Lo primero que Sc debe hacer con
un animal ,atacado es ponorlo en- lu-
gar seco y, como primer medida pre-
ventiva, gargarizarle con una pluma
untada con aceite antidifterico. Ell
empleo de este aceite solo, sin ningun
otro remedio, ha prestado servicios
maravillosos, siendo este ell tratami-
ento que Sc emplea con preferencia
a todos. ST los ojos estan tambien a.
taeados Sc les debe lavar con aqua
de flor de sauce.
81 la enfermedad no esta muy a.
vanzada, estos cuidados en- POGO IT,
empo aliviaran al ave y lie permit
ran conner: ell alimento sera un toni
co, mezclando al aqua un POGO de
sulfato de hierro.
UTIL.-Las huellas de humedad
que deja frecuentemente el aqua de
la lluvia debajo de la boca de los ca
nalones en- las paredes de las casas,
son debidas al hecho de que los refe-
ridos canalones no proyectan ell a.
qua 10 suficientemente lejos del mu-
70 y por conseouencia, despues de
Der novido, las gotas de aqua Sc
,escurr iendo, Sc corren hacia atras
y alcanzan Ia pared.
Para evitarlo no hay mas que po-
ner en- La boca del tubo una de esas
pinzas de MADEIRA q sirven para ten
der la ropa, y con ella Sc evita que
la pared Sc humedezca, porque las
gotas Sc corren por la pima y caen lie
Jos del muro.

The Facts About
The Printing Contract

In local item this week our con
temporary says: 1.-THE journal was SCI
ected as the official paper of San Juan
County at the meeting of the county
commissioners last week. " The state
ment is correct, and it may Re OF In
terest to state here that the CONTRACT
was so awarded in open disregard OF
the law which expressly requires that
such contract be let to the lowest bid
der. It was conceded by all mem
bers OF the board that the Islander S
bid was the lowest, and yet Commls-
ioner Buchanan moved that the con-
tract be let to the Journal. making
the flimsy excuse for such motion that
the islander had had the work for
q long time. Commissioner Cayou
voted with him, Commissioner Shull
alone voting "no". The express
mandate of the law was ignored by a
majority of the board and the inter
ests of the taxpayers disregarded.
Last year the Islander rendered
much the lowest bid but the fellow
who was then serving as the county's
legal adviser persuaded the same two
commissi toner's who disregarded the
law this year, to reject both bids and
call for new ones. This advice cost
the county a cons derable sum. fo- the
two papers then rendered Identical
bids at the maximum legal rate and
the award of the contract was de-
cided by lot. Last year being an
election year a much larger sum was
involved In the contract than is the
case this year. So far as private le
gal publications are concerned. the
law makes 20 distinction between
official and unofficial papers. Liti-
gants or their attorneys can place
their notices where they please.

Bumper Wheat Crop
For Pacific Northwest

Estimates of the years waeat crop
in the Pacific Northwest f1x the prob
able yield at about SIS. 900, 600 BUSH
els, an increase uf Is, 600. 900 bushels
over last year. This figure may not
be reached IL unfavorable conditions
at harvest set in, but with normal
weather it Is believed the yield will
be near the record. Recent rains
have been of immense value to the
growing crop. Districts where the
grain was practically given up be-
cause of the continued drouth have.
taken heart again and the wheat ia
filling out in fairly good shape. The
value of the rains of the past week
to the wheat crop is variously estima-
ted at from 81. 900. 900 to S3,OOO,-
600. Increased acreage in many sec.
tions Of the Northwest makes up in
the total yield for short crop in
some districts. As wheat is still
sticking around the dollar mark, the
big crop means great prosperity for
the Pacific Northwest during the COM
ing year.
Recent raine, that have been quite
general over the Pacific Northwest.
have been of great benefit to the fruit
crop as we'll as grain. There has
been a general drenching and the
hearts of the farmers are light in con-
sequence. With the exception of
some loss to cherries and hay, no dam
age has been done by the downpour
but incalculable good has been realiz-
ed. Slight damage to cherries has
been more than made up in the good
to the crops such as prunes, pears and
apples. Prunes have felt the benefit
of the rains to a great extent and
large crop is looked for.
Exceptional prosperity for the
northwest this year is predicted by
w. W. BrouRhton. trat1ic manager Of
the Great Northern Railway, as the
result of bumper wheat crop. Mr..
Broughton studies wheat carefully
each year. and this time he observes
that the farmers are going to make
big killing. Speaking of the situa-
tion. Mr.. Broughton says;"I have
come across the country slowly for
the express purpose of getting out
among the producers and wheat DEAL
ers to ascertain crop conditions. Not
for many years has the vast stretch
of country from Minnesota to the
Sound been so prolific with it's wheat
yeild. The crop in Washington state
is especially good and heavy. l have
crossed the country many times but
never did see people so happy and
80 contented with their lot as the
farmers in the region tapped by the
Great Northern and its branches.
Railways keep just as good account
of the crops as the banks and the
grain dealers. We also know what
is doing in districts other than our
own. So 1t seems reasonable to say.
that with good crops from Minnesota.
to salt water, from the Platte to the
Saskatchewan in Canada. the entire

ity this year. look for the greatest

from a party!
That was the beginning Of the end.
In another month or SO she had
donned long skirts-and mercy, how
that girl did rush into womanhood!
I was still in my baseball age when
she married q telegraph operator and
went out of my life forever!
I can see her now as she looked the
day before her wedding, which was in
June. She was beautiful and there
was a glow Of health and Joy in her
face that BODIED iii for me. l passed
her house and saw her emerging from
the garden, radiant and happy. l
slouched by with my baseball mask
under my arm, worried and sick at
heart.
What makes q girl grow so much
faster than a boy?" I was asking my
self over and over And all day long
I was disconsolate and sad. Imogene,
the girl who had taught me to keep
my hands and my teeth clean, the girl
who had instilled in me neatness and
pride of personal appearance, limo
gene, my first love, was going away!
Five years later when / saw her, she
had a face like a Ratchet, a squallint
baby and waddled when she walked!
