she will take her brood on jong jour- neys through the damp grass, and many are likely to die from this cause.
 One difficulty about raising guineas is that the young birds are very easily killed by mites and lice. They are apparently more tender than the chickens and many will quickly die, particularly if the big head louse at tacks them. The utmost care as to cleanliness must be taken if the guineas are raised in confinement.

RICH MAN A CONVICT
HAD BEEN FUGITIVE FROM JUS.
 TIcE FOR 2s YEARS.
Betrayed by Former Friend, Promi' nent Citizen of Whltesburg, kys Is Taken Back to Prison to
 Serve Sentence.

Whitesburg, Ky&Sixteen years o1 life as a respected citizen and busi' ness man in this city closed for T. B, Whitson when he was placed under arrest on charge of being an escaped convict from the state prison at Raleigh, N. c. He had amassed for tune and made many friends, but now he must go back to the cell and serve the remainder of his unexpired term of 30 years for killing a man. The killing was done 28 years ago. Whit son was then young man. He lived with his wife in Bakersville, N c. He became enraged at certain con duct on tEe part of neighbor, C.. c. Byrd, which he considered mortal insult. He and Byrd quarreled and the latter was shot to death.
 For ten years the authorities failed to locate Wilson, but he was finally found, tried and convicted in 1893. He escaped from the prison in Feb ruary, 1895, and vanished completely.
 It was about that time that he ap- peared in Detcher county. Ky, He went under the name of Samuel Jones. settled down to an industrious life and began to be very successful
 But with success and the lapse of years he became overconfdent in his security. He told certain of his intj- mates his real name, and his bank ac- count was kept as that of T. B. Whit son.
 When arrested he expressed the be- lief that former friend, now an en- emy, had betrayed him to the North Carolina authorities.
 At any rate. Chief of Detectives Malcolm Brown received information and made inquiries. He got letter from the warden of the North Caro- lima prison telling of Whitson's ca reer. Brown discovered that Whit son was about. to pay visit to Lex 1ngton and waited for him.
 The man was calm when arrested -'I have expected it for a long time, D he said. 'T have been fugitive from ustice for the greater part of my life. Yes. killed Byrd. had cause to.
 'But I don't think they will keep me in prison very long this time. I've been living right for a long time now"

Feeding Rouahaae.

Grain should be fed with roughage, as then 1t goes into the first stomach, and will be rechewed. If the grain is eaten alone. 1t is apt to go to the third stomach and to miss the re- chewing. To make sure that the feed is thoroughly chewed feed it with roughage. The best way is to cut the hay or straw, mix the grain feed with 1t; then it will go through the whole grinding process.

JUNE 18Th Fathers DAY

Mrs. Jonn B. Dodd of Spokane,
originator of Fathers Day." is
making arrangements through clubs
in various parts of the United States
for a national celebration on Sunday
June Is, when those who desire to
show their respect for dad" will
wear a rose, a colored flower for the
living and white for the dead. Mrs.
Dodd succeeded in interesting sew
eral thousand men, women and
children in the Northwestern coun-
try in observing the day last year,
when some of the Spokane min
listers preached special sermons, ex-
tolling the worth and virtues of
the old man.. Since then the
Spokane woman has received sheaves
of letters from prominent men and
women in various parts of the
country, including governors Of SO
states and executive officials at
Washington, D. c., commencing
the plan and urging her to continue
the campaign with view to max.
ing the celebration a national event.
So far more than 100 cities have
decided to join in the celebration
and Mrs. Dodd expects there will
be more than 5000 in line this

CHAIN OF DISTRICTS IS
NOW COMPLETED

Every union of fruit growers from
Keunewick to Selah is now atfilia-
ted with the Yakima Valley Fruit
Growers Association. except the
one at North Yakima.
This was brought about by the
action last week of the Selah Hor-
ticultural Union. when the men,
bers voted to transfer their stock to
the Selah District association of the
Yakima Valley Fruit Growers As
ISOLATION, which will mean that SO
ranchers of the Selah will this year
market their fruits through the
new cooperative organization.
This transfer carries with it a
warehouse and equipment worth
SIS, 900.
Plans have also been drawn for
fine new warehouse at Grandview
which will probably be placed un-
der construction very soon.

QUARANTINE SICK ORCHARDS

Diseased orchards ought to bt
quarantined the same as people sui
fering contagious ailments, accord
ing to some of the leading fruit
growers of the Northwest. This
propaganda is making Roadway,
particularly in the Yakima Valley,
where DR.. J. G.. Speicher has come
to the conclusion that there is a
great similarity in the diseases Of
plants and animals. He advocates
quarantining orchards infected with
woody aphis and blight. Like con-
sumption and cancer in the human,
these plant ills defy treatment.
The only way to handle such or
chards is to uproot the trees with
woody aphis and destroy them,
while blight infected branches
should be. cut out and burned.
FERMENTATION and eradication is the
only effective way of handling.

NO SPECIAL SESSION

It is now a certainty that there
will be no special session of the
legislature as Governor Hay upon re-
turning from trip around the state
announces that there is absolutely
no demand for special session OF
the legislature. He said that it
might be advisable to have special
session of the legislature in event
the supreme court should declare
the employees compensation act un-
constitutional and point out the de-
fects, in order that the voters might
have a chance at the next general
election to vote on constitutional
amendment to straigbten out the
points brought up by the supreme
court.

THE RIGHT KIND OF PUBLICITY

G. F. johnson, chairman of the
Promotion Committee of the Port
land Commercial Club, gave a talk
before the Norh Yakima Ad Club
recently that was full of good
suggestions. In my opinion, -
said he, the keynote Of successful
community advertising is sincerity
and truth. Nothing can be more
damaging than reinstatement, for
communities get regulations just as
do individuals. There is enough
opportunity in the Northwest with
out its being over-stated, but it is
dependent, as everywhere else, on a
good supply of grit and hard work,
and it is upon this ground that I
believe all our advertising should be
based"

NINETY THOUSAND new SETTLERS

Ninety thousand prospective SET
tiers came into the Pacific slope
country during the 30 days ended
April Il, according to reports re-
ceived from transcontinental rail-
roads operating in this district.
This is an increase Of more than 33
percent over the same period in
1910. 1t is estimated that between
1900 and IS, 900 or about 1900
more than last spring, came into
the Inland Empire. Railway Of
ficiaIs say the number of colonists
this year is larger than at any time
previously in the history Of the emf
grafton movement to the North
west. Most of the settlers will en-
gage in farming, horticulture and
dairying, cultivating tracts from
five to 800 acres. Many of the
newcomers are from the New Eng
land and Atlantic coast states. The
Mississippi and Missouri river VAL
leys furnished the majority of the
colonists. There also is sprink-
ling from the southern states and
Canada. Railroad construction work
near Spokane and in other parts of
the district brought out many me.

DO FLIES THINK?

Have you ever observed the pro-
ceedings of gang Of merry village
flies round kitchen door? Instinct?
Nonsense! A fly has the thinking
apparatus of Daniel Webster.
The screen door is there, to be sure,
but what is a screen door to cal
culating fly? Nothing but an ex-
pense to the householder. The
flies congregate in bevies of 5000 to
1000 on the casing just over the
dnor, and wait for the inevitable
opening-whieh occurs at intervals
of five minutes all day long. Every
time the door opens regiment OF
flies swoops into the hot, odorous
kitchen, and thence scatters. Is
there a remedy? Any way to put
flies and humanity on an equal
footing? We are told so in The
Youths Companion Of April 6.
Prof. Clinton F. Hodge of Clark
University land Clark University is
in the fly betty suggests two or three
remedies, and one is so simple that
anybody can employ it. Still, the
fly is knowing 'critter", and will
not succumb without struggle.

Washington's new members OF
the lower house of Congress did not
fare very we'll in the committee as.
signments. Representative War
burton of the Second District was
assigned to the committees on In.
dian affairs and War Department
expenditures. Representative La
Toilette of the Third District drew
memberships on the committee on
Coinage, Weights and Measures and
Canals. None of them are regarded
as very important, because they
give little opportunity for trading,
so that neither congressman will
have much leverage to use for the
advantage of his constituents.

NORTHWEST MANUFACTURES

That the Northwest is destined to
become as great a manufacturing
section in time, as New England is
today, is the belief of Leslie NJ.
Shaw, former secretary of the
treasury. Mr.. Shaw has been on
the Coast for some time making in
vestigations for Eastern financial
interests, whom he represents.
While there, he condemned the re-
call of public officers and deprecia-
ted the tendency toward the election
of United States senators by direct
vote. He said he took this posi-
ton because the people are moved
oftener by an appeal to passion and
prejudice than from sense Of
justice.
