The prospects of the usual beautiful ext year looks rather small at present, as load after load of the evergreen branches, securely tied in bundles are carted to the station and shipped to New York by the Hebrews. Five or more of the men have shanty about one mile from the church on the Hollow road. They are travelling all over the hillsides gathering laurel. which they do not even ask permiss on to cut, but go wherever they choose. 1t seems a pity to have this, one of our most beau tiful native wild flowers so ruthlessly cut and sent away by trespassers,

A Horned Snake,

A very handsome species of snake is the rhinoceros viper, which bears, as its name suggests, horns on its nose. It is most beautifully colored when freshly emerging from its cast skin. but its form is by no means elegant, being very thick in body, with bull doglike head. It may attain length of more than six feet and is a very deadly reptile.

The first big contract for struc-
tural steel to be made in the Paci-
fic Northwest has been awarded to
the Vulcan Iron Works of Seattle
which will produce the steel for a
big building to be erected by .
local business concern. Heretofore
the contracts for structural steel
used in Northwestern building have
been sent to the East, although
Northwestern iron and steel men
have been able to meet East
ern com etition in quality and
price. The practice has been per
mitted like so many other practices
by which Northwestern honey Ii
sent to a distance for things thai
can be manufactured right here a
home. The Vulcan contract means
an immediate increase in its labor
pay roll of $4,000 a week, which
will make an aggregate certainly
worth keeping at home.

No town will become a good bust
ness center so long as its business
men rely on a few merchants to
make the efforts to bring trade to
town. Too often the men in a few
lines of trade are about the only
ones that reach out after custom.
Other merchants wait until these
men induce the people to come to
town and content themselves with
the trade that naturally drifts to
their places. A public spirited man
should ask himself if he is doing
his part to attract people to his
town to trade. No town is a sue
cess unless all lines are working to
extend the trade as far as possible
and trying to bring a larger terri
tory in the circle in which the
town is the business centre. Wells
