How long she stayed she did not

Died on Operating Table

At Spokane on Monday occurred the
death of Walter Raymond, who was in
jured the Monday before by being hit
by log, which jumped from the chute
at the Rauch camp near Camden. Death
occurred at St. Luke's hospital, Ray
mond failing to come out from under
the influence of the anaesthetic admin
istered during an operation.
Newport friends were notified of his
death and C. A. Fielder went to Spo-
kane and made arrangements to care
for the body and brought it back to this
city. Funeral services were held at
the Harding undertaking establishment
on Wednesday afternoon, Rev. A. E.
Ayers officiating. The services were
attended by many old-time friends and
comrades of work in the woods.
Raymond was about 58 years old and
had lived in the Newport couatry for
fully 20 years, working in the sawmills
and logging camps of this vicinity. He
never married and so far as is known
to local friends had no living relatives.
He was quiet, unassuming man and
steady worker, and was man with
many friends, who regret his fate.

HOW TO PREPARE EXHIBITS
Great Northern Circular Gives
Instructions to Farmers.
Help to Advertise This Section,

This is the time of the year when
samples of agricultural products for
exhibition purposes should be selected
and prepared. The Great Northern
Railway has issued the following bulle-
tin on the subject, which should be of
interest and assistance to farmers who
are preparing to make entries for the
local fair:
In collecting an exhibit of grain.
grasses, vegetables and fruits for exhi-
bltlon purposes, it is not only important
to have good material, but it is equally
as important to have the same carefully
selected and properly prepared. The
best exhibition material may be en-
tirely ruined by being poorly put up and
Improperly packed, and as a result ar
irving at destination worthless.
HOW TO SELECT AND PREPARE GRAINS.
1t is necessary to permit the grain to
get ripe, in order that it may show the
natural color of maturity. Grain which
is selected before it is ripe never loses
the greenish cast and never makes an
attractive exhibit. 1t is of equal i'm
portance that the grain be not allowed
to become too ripe so that it shells out
In selecting and shipping.
CURING AND SIZE OF BUNDLES.
After selecting grain, spread out on
boards in shady place, leave this way
for couple of days, so that it will dry
enough to prevent molding in bundles.
Then place in bundles not less than four
in diameter below the heads when tied.
There are no objections to having it put
up in large bundles with the exception
that it is almost impossible to cure it
properly.
The grain should be cut close to the
ground, so as to show the extreme
length. Also some grain should be
pulled up by the roots, as this has proven
to be very attractive way of exhibit
ing grain in the straw, but, of course,
only small per cent of the grain should
be allowed to retain the roots.
ALFALFA AND CLOVER.
In preparing exhibits of alfalfa and
clover it is very difficult to re-arrange q
