ment, Doing Good Work.
Jackson. - Gov. Noel is in receipt
d report from Prof. W. L. Hutchinson,
field agent of the live stock sanitary
commission, showing exceedingly salts
factory work along the line of tick Grad
ication. About seventy-fye men, includ-
ing nineteen veterinarians Supplied by
the federal government, are now doing
effective work in this state. In May
the number may be increased to one hun
bred. In addition to the county's regu'
lar work with complete organization and
quarantine restrictions, preliminary
work is being done in Clay, Grenada,
Kinds, Warren, Wilkinson, Lincoln, Car
roll, Montgomery, Yalobusha, Lafayette
L%auderdale, Newtt9, Scott, Rankin,
Washington, Bolivar Vnd Issaquena. In
the first four counties named, especially
Clay, real good work is being done. In
some of the others the extent OF CO
operation is problematic, dependent upor
the number of watts provided by the
county or private individuals and The
extent they will be utilized. Holmes
county has set a new pace and will sooI
have $50 watts in use, and with all o.
its cattle being dipped every fourteen
days. At this rate, unless unforeseen
distractions be made by some few NAL
contents, the whole coutny will be east
ly cleared of ticks before the end of thi
year.

SCALP WAS BADLY Affected

II am more than gratiied by the
successful results l obtained by the
use Of the Cuticura Remedies. For
several years my scalp was very bad
ly affected with dandruff and scales.
My scalp itched terribly at times and
my hair fell out. My coat collar would
be actually white with the dandruff
that had fallen from my head. My
profession being that of a barber, 1
was particular about having my hair
in good condition, and was also in a
position to try many lotions, ETC., for
the scalp. These had little or no ef-
feet. l had heard so much about the
Cuticura Remedies that l resolved to
try them. l shampooed my head
with Cuticura Soap twice a week and
after drying my head thoroughly, l
anointed parts Of my scalp with Cuti-
cura Ointment. I was pleased from
the outset, and continued to keep up
this treatment. To think that only
three cakes Of Cuticura Soap and one
and one-half boxes Of Cuticura Oint.
ment rid my head of this annoying
troubls made me feel quite contented,
I have now got a thick growth of hair
and l am never troubled with any
dandruff or itching of the scalp. There
Is no question but that the Cuticura
Remedies cured me. 1 frequently
recommend them to my customers
and they think a great deal Of them

There were a couple of dandy fish
liars in the Colonial lobby. We didn't
have time to get their names, ad-
dresses and photographs, but we lin
gered long enough to hear the CONVEX

was as follows:
"How much did your fish weight"
Il didn't have no hay scales with
me, you NUT. But when 1 pulled him
out it lowered the lake four inches"

one of two panhandlers who had en-

The lesser Evil.

Gresham college in 1919 was the
scene of a famous %serio-comic duel be-
tween two celebrated doctors, Doctor
Mead and Doctor Woodward, both Of
whom were lecturers at the college,
While walking down Bishopsgate
street one morning they quarreled
over some medical question and ad-
journed to the square of the college
to fight It out with swords. Woodward
fell, wounded in several places, where
upon Mead magnanimously said Take
thy life" Anything but your physic,"
Kissed back the chagrined Woodward

Salmon trout are still being
caught about East Sound, and afford
excellent sport.
Mr.. Hook, dog trainer of Bell
ingham, is looking for place on
the island to train string of thirty
settlers.
+ Numbers of big spring salmon
are feeding on the small fish at
various places along the shores of
Orcas island.
SMALL catches of trout are the
rule now at Cascade lake. The fish
are hiding away in the deep holes
far from shore.
The ball game next Sunday will
be between the Tigers and the Roche
Harbor nine. A spirited contest
will be seen at the Jim King
grounds.

Quail are reported very numerous
this year especially on Orcas island.
Pheasants are plentiful in Crow

should be many more than there
were last year. 4
All kinds of salmon may now be
seen among the thousands upon the
floor at the cannery. There are
humpies, silvers, springs and sock
eyes but only the expert may identi-
fly them at glance.
j. Fred Braid of the Seattle Times,
is spending his vacation at Orcas
island. He is an interchangeable
fisherman, and his speciality is the
small trout in the stream that runs
out of Mountain lake.
Visitors to Orcas island report
that venison is frequently served
upon the tables there. Our neigh
bors have an idea that the deer on
their ranches are personal property,
to be butchered as needed.
Commissioner Shull, who has a
large farm on this island has been
studying the habits of the chinese
pheasant for some years. He does
not believe that they injure the
crops to any appreciate extent.
He has found the crops of the birds
filled with the seed of various weeds,
also bugs and worms. He believes
the blue jay is the culprit that in
jures the potato crop, where it has
often been charged up to the phea-
SAINT. Mr.. Shull thinks some parties
are killing pheasants out of season
west of his place.
