GETTING RID OF STUNTS
WITH OIL.

Many people are at work on the
logged-off land problem in the vic
unity of Spokane. Some try one way
and some another of clearing the
land. Among those who are build
ing homes for themselves upon the
lands which were once in timber
and brush Is l.. w. Perkins OF Be-
lair, a few miles out of Spokane.
Mr.. Perkins remembered that in the
east some practiced boring into
oak stumps and filling the hole with
saltpeter, finding that the taltpeter
in comparatively short time would
rot the stump.
About two years ago Mr.. Perkins
bored with two-inch auger, from
the top into one of the green pine
stumps on his place, which stood
foot or so out of the ground ana
was a foot in diameter. He .illei
the hole with kerosene. A little later
he bored another hole at right angles
at the foot of the stump and tried
to fire it by putting in shavings, but
found II useless. Several days ago

ging. came across the stump treated
with oil and found one of It's roots to
give away at once, crumbling into a
mass. The stump itself looked ms
solid from the outside as any oil

LYNDEN WINS FROM LAUREL
36 TO o.

Lynden high school won the foot
ball game with Laurel, last Friday
afternoon, by score of 36 to 0.
The game was not as one sided as
the score would indicate. The Laurel
boys were not in as good training as
the Iynden bunch but they were
husky team of boys and after they
had got their stride in the reeond
half they made the Lynden boys
work.
Will Meueur, who made more than
his share of the points for Lynden,
was really too heavy for the Laurel
bows. With the ball in his arms, on
two or three occasions he ran through
the opposing teams line up like q
big ball going through ten pms
J.ure, had but two men who were
in any way equal to stopping hin
without help.
However Meueur was not the onl!
Lynden player by any means. All o
the boys did good work. Edwards
made one run that brought cheers
from the crowd and so did severa
others players. Lynden felt as II ]
