Segunda era una virtud mas huma-
ma que la de S1cole, virtud que exis-

dos virtudes iban a fundirse en- una

Getting Home Endorsement

Perhaps no candidate for congress in
this district has ever before received such
splendid home endorsement as A. +,
Featch, Of Colville, who has announced
his candidacy to succeed Hon. Miles
Pcindexter. The Republican newspa per
men OF Stevens county joined in an en-
dOrsenent Of his candidacy, and last
week the ministerial association. com
posed Of all the resident ministers of
t0lvlile churches, united in All endorse
ment OF his candidacy and principles.
and asked all the Christian people of the
Third congressional district to support
Mr.. Neatch, regardless of church or
party utilization. This is all the more
significant when it is known that Mr..
featch is not church mem Der. His
work and character have been such as
command for him the support OF the
people Of Stevens county. regardless OF
church or party utilization. A .Veatch
Congressional Club" was organized at
Jolyille Wednesday night to promote

Good Sport for Anglers

Manager S. S. Drew, Of the state fish
hatchery at hartford on the Little Spo-
kane, has notified the county board OF
commissioners that residents Of Stevens
county, desiring small fry for stocking
mountain streams or lakes should get in
their applications to the hatchery at
once. The hatchery will have its spring
distribution ready about March l. and
all applications should be in the hands
OF the manager by Feb. Is.
Plenty of sport is in store for the an
glers of this section, il they will arrange
to have the streams and lakes stocked.
Last year at the hatchery some 4O0, 1000
eastern brook trout were Matched, and
this year the institution has received
2,138,0m brook trout from the'streams
of Rhode Island, Michigan and Wiscon-
sin. OF that number 100000 went to
the Walla Waila hatchery, and 100000
to the Lewis river hatchery in Clarke
county. All of the balance are at the
hartford hatchery and are available for
distribution in Eastern Washington
To applicants having suitable waters
in which to plant the young fish sup
ply will be sent free OF charge and de-
livered at the nearest railroad station.
The successful planting of fish in the
lakes in this section should encourage
anglers to make application for part of
this supply. Kings Lake, east of Usk,
is a conspicuous sample of what can be
done in few years time. Some of the
finest trout ever seen hereabouts are the
result Of planting fry few years ago.
The many mountain streams and lakes
in the Pend Oreille valley present fine
for the propagation of
game fish.

Dear Sir--l desire, through your pa
per, to impress upon all the great i'm
portaDce of large attendance at the
Farmers Institute, to be held on March

attendance should warrant it, that New
port will be an established point to hold
regular meetings, which will enable us
to reap all the benefits We are entitled
Ia bv the establishment of the agricul-
tural college. 1t is a fact that the tax
payers are paying for this great and good
cause, either directly or indirectly,
through preparations by the state.
WHY not come and get your moneys
worth? Great benefits haye accrued to
farmers and those engaged in any or all
occupations wherein the profits are from
the cultivation Of the soil in all parts OF
The state and all parts OF the United
States, and now an opportunity comes
10 each and every one OF us to profit by
these institutes. As it is of great inc0n-
yenience TO attend the college courses,
for most Of us, these institutes have
been eata blshed and hence the college
courses and lectures Of these practical
experienced men are brought to your
very doors. 1t must be understood that
the lectures are not for men only, as the
women folks are most cordially invited
TO attend. ii the men can't come you

best in this section, Mr.. Sparks, former
horticultural inspector Of Stevens cOun-
tY and we'll known authority in his
profession. Then comes the man who
has removed thousa nda Of stnmps. One
us is the removal OF these stunps at the
least cost, and here il an opportunity to
learn practical methods OF one who has
had the experience. This section Of
S'teYens county, Newport and the Pen 4
Oreiile valley, are destined to be one O /
the best fruit districts Of the state, IA
has been repeatedly demonstrated by
fruit grown here, and no one can doubt
alter seeing the apples and pears, that |
they compare Iayoraby with their kind |
raised at Wenatchee. Yakima and other !
we'll known districts, and in he nea |
future. when the timber has vanished. |
he bills and bench lands will be
covered with vast commercial orchards,
Y hlch will be credit to each and all Of

ION OF all property. Don't forget the

Some deny that there are no good
books except religious books, and
they refuse to have any other kind.
Religious books, however, should not
be left out. What book is more true

more perfect than those taught by

The study Of the Bible can be
made interesting; altho l fear there
are very few who make it a study.
Compelling children to read long
chapters or learn many pages Of that
which they scarcely understand q
single line is not only useless, but
creates in the children dislike for
this Holy Word. Try to teach them
that the Bible stands for honesty,
right, purity. Show them as simply
as possible the meaning Of salvation

selves living examples Of the teach
ings Of God.
