ALARM BELLS AND
GRADE CROSSINGS
Northern Pacific to Install Form
er and Is Investigating the
Latter Question

Some time ago the county commits
sioners and officials of the Northern
Pacific had a conference in reference
to grade crossings and alarms, ana
the matter was referred to the PGp-
lie Service Commission. letter has
been received from the commits son
embodyng statement from the
Northern Pacific, which says that
alarm bells at the Union Gap ana
Standard Oil crossings will be IN
stalled, but that the matter of grade
crossings is being investigated fufth-
er. The letter, which is signed by
Jesse s. Jones, one of the commits
sioners. has the following quotation
from the letter of |. B. Rlchards
general superintendent of the North
ern Pacific railway:
I'VE have ordered the material
with which to install an electric Dell
there, and will have it erected
promptly when it arrives, we nave
also arranged to erect Immediately
an electric bell at Union Gap crossing
where the conditions complained OF
were brought about by the consul ut-
ton of the North Coast railway Any
|expense for separation of grades
should be borne by that company
This has been looked into and has
been found quite difficult on account
of the ground being so low that there
will be weeks in the year when an

BUTTER TEST
SUCCESSFUL
Three-Year-Old Heifer at Marks
Ranch in the Ahtanum Makes
Good Showing
YIELDS TWENTY-THREE.
POUNDS IN ONE WEEK
Aged Animals Also Prove by Their
Milk and Butter Production
That the Stock Raised Is of the
Right Kind

Official test has been completed. at
the Ahtanum ranch of f. B. Marks,
of the butter producing capacity of
several of his cows. The test has
been most satisfactory, and while one
of the cows did not measure quite
up to the expectations Mr.. Marks
had for her she did so well that she
is in the front rank of Holstein cows
in this country. The test was m lde
under the supervision of an official
of the state college at Pullman and
the results are as follows:
Oakhurst Spoffard America, three
year old heifer, yielded 23.29 pounds
of butter in seven days, her average
milk yield per day during the test
being S2.6 pounds daily. This is
something over 40 quarts a day.
Butter King Molly DeK6l, three
year old heifer, yielded 20.31 pounds
of butter in seven days, her average
daily milk production being a little
over IS pounds.
Edna Marie, aged twelve years.
which yielded total of 1907 pounds
of milk during the month of Ma;
ran up a total of 2170 pounds dur
ing June.
Full sister to Edna Marie, COW
now in her fourteenth year, made a
total of Is pounds of butter for the
seven days of the test. These two
aged animals were bred and RAISED
and have always been ownel by The
Messrs. Marks at their Aht mum
ranch.
The showing OF both the aged and
the young animals is a most excellent
one and one of which the local breed
ers as we'll as the community as a
whole has a right to be proud.

He learned from Superintendent Reed
that the schools now have an az
rregate OF six or seven thousand vol
umes in tho school library or libraries.
| In addition there Is public library
in the town This he thought was
sufficient and the money of the tax
peyers should not he expended in
such books as were suggested and
apparently in use.
Scores Public Library
Mr.. Reed claimed that the direc-
ton Of the minds Of the pupils along
proper lines OF reading is essential in
such a school course as is followed
h ere and backed this up by declar-
ing that in his opinion the public Ii
brary here. both building and equip

found in any community in the
United States with such a prosperous
and intelligent population as is to be
found here. Mr.. Fechter did not
deny this nor did he agree. He sug-
gested. however, that libraries. es-
pecially good ones were not common
before Andrew Carnegie began the

Some Supplies Held Up
General school supplies needed were
directed to be purchased, however,

ing accepted The school books. the
equipment for the new kindergarten.

things however were held up at the
request Of Mr.. Fechter who desires
to give them more study. This. of
course, includes the strangely named

Mr.. Reed stated al the meeting that
