Dean Hutchins; that his back. if pos

of white hair and siXty-two years of

be proud, they said. He had done the
impossible. He had tanned the law
students. He was genius in adj

APPENDICITIS CAUSE FOUND?
Modern Methods Of Grinding Flour
Are Blamed.

Sir Lauder Brunton. one of Eng
lands most eminent physicians, told
the public health congress that met
at Birkenhead that he believed the
large increase of appendicitis during
the last twenty years was due to mod
ern methods of grinding wheat into
-four
Explaining his hypothesis, Sir Lau-
der said that years ago wheat was al
ways ground between two millstOneS.
but today it was ground between steel
rollers, which really acted like scis-
sors. the wheat being cut up. Wheat
ground in the new way would be diff
fcrent under the microscope from that
ground under old fashioned conditions,
and there might be different tend
ency attributed to this.
He had seen an extraordinary re-
port on endemic ncuritis in America,
which, it was stated, was produced by
polished rice. If the patients ate the
rice without its being polished they
got well. This showed how minute al
terations would produce extraordinary
changes in the individual.

THE STORY OF Lorraine


In the early days when the Quin-
iault Indians roamed the coast from
the straits of Juan De Fuca to the
Columbia River, and fished and hunt
ed for miles back into the country
there journeyed into their hunting
grounds from the Sound country a
sturdy pioneer with his family and
all of his earthly possessions. These
possessions were contained in two
wagons drawn by horses and as the
heavy loads rumbled over the rough
country, this keen-eyed pioneer, then
young man, kept strict watch for
suitable place where the surround
ing conditions were favorable for
building home, where he could live
bring up his children and enjoy life
as he liked.
this journey into the almost impassa-
Bile roads and brush, we might see,
this man climb an exceptionally high
tree to look over the lay of the land
and pick out the best possible country
in which to travel. Many changes
were undoubtedly made in the days
journey; dense underground, impass-
able streams, low marshy ground and
Indian signs, each helped to guide
the steps of the party as they pushed
forward in search of a home.
At the end of a particularly hard
days journey, when it seemed that
the timber got denser and the under
brush impeded every step, when it
seemed almost possible to hear the
distant roar of the mighty Pacific
ocean they suddenly came from the
dense timber into a natural park. The
ground lay rolling and high. The grass
covered the entire place from one 70
three feet high and here and there a
scrub oak tree grew as though it had
been set out by some landscape ar
fist. Below, in the distance, lay the
river. winding in and out on it's way
to the sea, and at his feet lay acre
after acre of bottom land such as
he had journeyed miles to find.
Around him in all directions he saw
hills covered with the grandest growth
of timber he had yet seen and away
towards the east he beheld the snow
capped peak of Mt. Tacoma, which
marked the then farthest western
edge of the white mans home.
The air was warm and balmy and
as the quietness of evening came on
and they made their camp, it SEEM
ed that this was the spot of all, here
was a place to call home, place in
tended for white man to call his
own.
Here then, was home. Smith, for
such was his name, knowing of the
many dangers that surrounded him,
built with the help of his family, a
substantial house, fashioned after his
own ideas and so built to withstand
the attacks of Indians. "BlockhOuse
Smith he was called by the white
men who came after him and after
the perilous journey through the
woods, the substantial Blockhouse
built by Smith. was welcome sight
to the tired traveller.
Years passed, the fertile acres Of
bottom lands returned many fold to
the owner, a constant stream of i'm
migrants passed the ranch, bound for
the coast. The Blockhouse crumbled
into dust, for the Indians had been
driven back and were powerless. Time
dealt kindly with BlockhOuse Smith.
The healthy climate and out door life,
the pure water and warm sun, ripen-
ed and developed him until his hair

I was silver white and his cheeks
glowed with good health. The great
ranch was to large and too valua-
Bile now, so taking a walk over the
old home place and bidding each
familiar part last farewell with his
family he moved into the busy little
town of MOntesano, where he still
lives, hale and hearty old man.
The day of large land holdings is
over. Everywhere we hear of large
ranches being cut up and sold to peo-
pie who will cultivate 5, 10, or Is acres
and make from the small tract more
than did the owners of the large
tracts. The reason for this is plain
Intensive culture and personal atten.
ton produces more and better pro-
ducts, in fact an up-to-date rancher
will make more money from Is acres
of good land than he will from 100
acres, because he cannot give it close
attention. Again, the country settles
up, cities spring up, cOngesting the
population and being unable to sup
port themselves, demand of the sur
rounding country to feed and nourish
them. At first the large ranches
are sufficient, but owing to their size
ed under one management. This con-
ditiOn today presents itself to Grays
Harbor. We have grown until we are
like the small boy and his last years
clothes. They won't fit; we must do
something. We cannot stop growing,
so we cry for more and better food
stuffs. At the present time, Grays
HarbOr ships bring in from California
over go per cent of all food stuffs.
Thousands of dollars are spent each
month which goes out of the county
and will never return. If the money
now sent out for foods was kept at
home, we would soon be the richest
county in the state. The ranchers
would all own automobiles and fine
houses. Our roads void be better be-
cause the rancher would demand
them. The entire county would be
benefited. We must build up the rural
sections and the cities can take care
of themselves if the rancher will feed
them. In turn the cities will bring
to the rancher all that his needs de-
mand
One of the very first subdivisions
of large ranches in Chehalis county,
is that of the famous Blockhouse
Smith ranch at Lorraine, Wash. This
1000 acre ranch has been subdivided
into tracts from 3 to 80 acres. Broad
lanes and streets run through it.
Tracts are so situated that the wants
of any rancher can be supplied. II
you want to grow chickens, it is so
divided that you can have 10 acres Of
high, dry, gravelly ground. Straw
berries, then you have lower and bet
ter soil. Garden truck, then buy the
low bottom lands.
The firm of Engen, Chamberlin e
Wiseman, realty dealers in this city,
have the sale of these tracts and they
point out that the same conditions
that prompted Blockhouse Smith to
locate on the land in the early days
are present at this time. Climate,
soil, water and cleared land.
They further point out that time
has added new blessings, such as
good roads, railway trains, telephone
and saw mills. These garden tracts
are for sale today and newcomers to
the Grays HarbOr country will be am
ply repaid by consulting these well
known dealers and looking over their
propositions.

pages and Twenty eight Horses.
An attempt is to be made under the
patronage of prominent English sport
ing men to break the extraordinary
record for long distance horseback
riding made on Nov. 8, 1881. by Squire
George Osbaldeston on the Newmarket
round course. Including fifty stop
pages and quarter of an hour for re-
freshments, the squire won 1000 gum
cas- in stakes and n large sum in his
own private wagers by riding 200
miles in hours and AZ minutes.
He covered the distance in a cold
rainstorm, starting at Z a. M. weigh
ing in at 157 pounds, including saddle
and bride, and taking the full round
course of four miles at each lap. Fifty
times he circled it, and as many times
he changed horses.

the 200 miles could not be covered in
ten hours even with an unlimited num-
Der of horses. One nobleman bet 1000
to the squire could not do it in nine
hours.
The squire had twenty eight horses
at his disposal, and he covered the first
100 miles in little less than four
hours and twenty minutes. Then he
rested for fifteen minutes, refreshing
himself with cold partridge and a
glass of sherry. The whole distance
was ridden in seven hours, nineteen
minutes and four seconds, the rest Of
the time being spent in stoppages to
mount and dismount. His best horse
was Tranby, which he rode on four
separate laps, the time being:
First lap-Eight minutes ten seconds.
Second lap-Eght minutes fiat.
Third lap-Eight minutes fifteen seconds
Fourth lap-Eight minutes fifty seconds.
But One Bad Horse.
Favey did lap in eight minutes
eight seconds and Ipsala in eight min.
utes twenty seconds. On the other
hand, the horse key Solomon took
twelve minutes and was the worst of
the lot. 1t had to be whipped around
the course. and Osbaldeston had to
dismount once on the stretch.
The squire was forty-fve. years old
when he accomplished his historic
sporting feat. His training for the
event had consisted in riding siXty-five
miles each morning in two and half
hours and walking after cartridges the
rest of the day to harden his muscles.
