The local concrete walk builders
are making plans for busy season.
More walks will be built in Lancas-
ter this year than ever before and it is
very probable that more men will be
engaged in building them than ever
before. 1t is also very probable that
home industry will be given special
encouragement this summer.

A number of our citizens went
fishing Sunday. For the most part
their patience was rewarded by large
strings Of suckers and clubs There
have been comparatively few catches
of trout reported this year. The black

our sportsmen are limiting vaguely
that there will be good bass fishing
hereab1uts this season.

STORAGE STOCKS ARE NOT
LARGE ENOUGH TO LAST
SAYS REPORT.

Firm prices and easy movement
We're the gratifying features in the
past week of the Chicago and New
York apple markets. There seems
to be decided disposition on the
part of distributors to let loose of
their storage stocks only as is war
ranted by the demand; and if they
continue this policy there need be no
fear of a slump in quotations. Even
the most extravagant estimate fixes
the quantity of apples left in the
country at only 100000 barrels and
this amount must be handled care
fully in order to supply the trade
until the advent of the early sum-
mer apple. Distributors thoroughly
realize conditions and they will not
make the mistake of Cutting the
market as they did just before the
Christmas markets.
In Chicago standard varieties Of
No. l barrel. grade prices ranged at
from $3.50 to $3.50 on most offer.
ings, while fancy fruit sold all the
way from $3.50 to SIS, and No. 2 from
$1.50 to $3.50.
In box goods the quotations were
81 on choice to $3.50 on extra fancy.
In some instances strictly extra fancy
stock brought much higher figures.
In the New York market Bald
wins sold for $3.50 a barrel, Green
ings sold for as his as Sc, York Imper.
ials $3.50, and Twenty-Ounce Pippins
at SIS. Box goods moved easily at
$3.50 for Spitzenbergs, s2.25 for
Rome Beauties, So for Winesaps, So
for Newtown Pippins and 1925 for
Ganos
Apple exports in the past week
were slightly heavier than for the
similar period year ago. They COM
prised 1888 barrels, against 26,-
245 barrels the corresponding week
last year. New York shipped 44.O
barrels, nearly equally distributed
among all markets Boston shipped
5607 barrels, 426 of which wen tc

and various other markets. Portland

go out. He started to go out the front
door, but Fritz jerked him back and
pulled him out of the back door. He
then said that he picked up an ak

door. For the next few minutes he
was blind. Next he said he saw Fritz
looking out of the window and he ran
around the woodshed. 1t was at this
time the Fritz shot him in the back.

ABUSE TELEPHONE
PRIVILEGE
LOCAL COMPANY MAKES AN
NOUNCEMENT IN REFERENCE
TO FIRE CALIS-SPECTAL SER
VICE FOR FTREMEN ONLY.

The Farmers Telephone & Tele-
graph company has issued the follow
ing statement to the public in regard
to the use of the local switch board
for information regarding fires. The
announcement is of interest to every
one in the city. 1t says:
THE Farmers Telephone & Tele-
graph company wishes to announce
that on account of Wenatchee having
a volunteer fire department and it
being necessary for its members to
quickly get information regarding the
location of fires the company has al
ways given such information from its
switchboard to those inquiring. The
public in general, regardless of whe-
ther or not they may be members of
the fire department, are taking adj
vantage of this effort of the telephone
company to cooperate with the fire
department Owing to the abuse of
this privilege, which was intended for
and extended to members of the fire
department only, the local switch
boards become so busy after an alarm
that it is impossible for the operators
to properly handle the regular tele-
phone traffic Oftentimes for a half
hour after a fire alarm the regular
service is very badly crippled on &C
count of these calls. A check on
these calls has shown fully so per
cent of them are from women who
can be benefited in 10 way by the
knowledge of the whereabouts of a
fire. Unless this practice of running
to the phone every time the fire bell
rings is discontinued by those not
members of the fire department, the
telephone company will be forced, in
order TO carry on their regular bust
ness of making telephone connections,
to discontinue giving out any infor-
nation whatever regarding fires.

NOVEL METHOD OF
HUNTING

Unique and certain Of results is
the method employed by s. G. McMa.
hon, mining prospector, in killing
coyotes and other predatory animals
in the Whisky valley district in cen.
trail Washington. He uses nitro
glycerine and has already obtained
more than $3.50 in bounties on

auditor of Kittitas county since Jan.

While at Ellensburg with wagon.
load of pelts the other day he told a
number of sportsmen and habitues
at the court house the secret of his
success as a bounty-earner, saying:
I'm out in the hills prospecting
most of the time and my only COM
panions are the coyotes and other
wild things. In this instance the
company is worth money only when
dead and is nothing more or less
than an annoyance while alive.
81 haven't the time to hunt coyotes,
but to make little easy money and
at the same time to rid the district
of some of the nuisances / load
pieces of meat with nitro glycerine,
such as / use in blasting ore-bearing
rock, and scatter the tid-bits near
the coyotes haunts in the hills.
THE coyotes come alone, some
times singly, but more often in twos,
threes and in packs; they find the
meat, and, as it looks good to 'em,
they gulp it down and then-it is
all over with 'em.
THE explosive kills instantly, but
does not injure the pelt enough to
prevent the county auditor from pay
ing the bounty of 81 each, as provid-
ed by the state law
1--WE killed hundreds of these
pests in my time and expect to bag
many more before the end of the
year. The game is worth while, for
not only get the bounty but also
help the farmers and stockgrowers in
getting rid of their worst enemies. .

TO CRUISE oKANoGAN TIMBER
Is 600 Acres is the Estimate of Coun.
ty-Assessor Kloppenburg's
Plan Endorsed.

Okanogan, Jan. 17.-Sixty-five
thousand acres of timber land will
hereafter contribute to the treasury
of Okanogan county. The county COM
missioners, on the recommendation of
County Assessor Kloppneburg, have
approved the plan of cruising all the
patented timber land in the county
and actual work will be started in
March.
1t is estimated that the additional
taxes accruing to the county for the
first year as the result of the cruise
will more than pay for the expense
incurred in completing it. In the flu
ture the owners of timber claims will
be compelled to make affidavits show
ing the amount of timber cut each
year, rendering the necessity of an
other cruise out of the question.
OF the timber land now patented in
Okanogan county it is estimated that
fully 20 per cent is owned by men
residing in other sections of the
country. The county will be divided
into three districts, each to be in
charge of an experienced timber
cruiser and an assistant, all working
under the supervision of Mr.. Kloppen-
burg. The men SO far selected are
