For the past five years the State
College, through its Western Washing
ton Experiment Station at Puyallup
and through the State Experiment
Station in cooperation with the
Bureau of Plant Industry of the U.
s. Department Of Agriculture, has
been investigating the cost and meth
DDS of clearing land which was orig
inally timbered, but has been logged
for it's merchantable timber and is
now available for settlement as farm
lands. From time to time, bulletins
giving the results of these investi-
cations have been published. The
following is list of the bulletins on
this subject which are now available

ADVOCATES READING ROOM

ent Of the Public Library

Rev. T. Fl. Simpson, of Hoquiam,
is advocating the establishment of IA
reading and lounging room for log
gers in Aberdeen and Hoquiam, places
where the logger in coming to town
would be made comfortable and to
feel at home, instead of going to sa.
looms for such comfort.
The idea is meeting with cordial
support in both cities, and in Aber-
deem it is urged that it could be
joined with the city employment
bureau at but a trifling cost. A larg-
er room could be secured. where men
from the woods could leave their
luggage, and use as reading loung-
ing and recreation room.

BALTIMORE, June 26.-The pro-
gressives in the democratic national
convention claimed a notable victory
tonight when they carried the motion
abrogating the rule by which some
states were bound to cast their vote
as units.
The fight for and against the unit
rule waged particularly about the
state of Ohio, where Is district del
egates had been instructed In the pri.
maries to vote for Woodrow Wilson.
but where the state convention, con-
trolled by the Harmon forces, had
invoked the unit rule, binding all the
Ohio delegates to the Ohio governor.
The convention, by a vote of 565%
to 419h, voted that no state delega
ton shall be bound by unit control,
except in such cases where the state
law was mandatory on the subject.
The Wilson supporters who, earlier
in the evening had carried on a dem.
onstration lasting 80 minutes. regard
ed the vote as distinctly favorable to
the Wilson boom. which had been
growing throughout the day. Wilson
gained and Harmon lost votes from
the Ohio delegation as q result OF the
fight. 1t was said that the abroga-
ton of the rule might lead to a break
in other delegations. and this left the
presidential race tonight in greater
doubt than ever.
Kisses for New York
New York's solid block of 80 votes
was cast amid Kisses and groans in
favor Of continuing the unit rule.
Missouri, the home state Of Champ
Clark, split 20 to Z in favor of the
unit rule, and this result was receiv.
ed with groans.
When Nebraska and Kansas voted
solidly for abrogration of the rule
there were cheers from the Wilson
forces.
Pennsylvania, Wilson state, gave
a big majority for the abrogation.
There have been signs during the
day of a growing sentiment in the
New York delegation in favor of Will
son. The New York delegation voted
under the unit rule tonight in cast
ing it's ballot against the proposition
fostered by the Wilson supporters.
Dark Horses Thick
Dark horses" are being discussed
everywhere tonight by the leaders
and delegates. but there appeared to
be some difficulty in crystallizing the
sentiment, as to which of the dark
horses was the darkest.
Senator Kern of Indiana appeared
10 hold the lead among the dark
horses. One outstanding fact in the
situation seemed to be the absolute
impossibility Of any candidate having
a sufficient number of votes on the
first ballot. The two-thirds rule pre-
vaiing in democratic conventions al
ways makes the picking of candidate
in advance a difficult problem.
Bryans Friends Let Up Little
Bryan's friends ceased today in
large measure to boom him for a can
didate. His followers warmly defend
the course he has pursued in the con-
vention, and assert he is still in po-
sition to dictate the nominee.
Bryan declined today to accept the
craftsmanship of the platform commit
tee. but his close friend, Senator
Kern, was chosen in his place.
Tonight Bryan reported the plat
form as coming along nicely.

Stylish Bookmafks,

A woman who reads 8 great deal and who always keeps two or three books going at the same time, hit upon the notion of using fashion pa- per ladies for bookmarks, the modish little personages being clipped from a fashion magazine that uses a heavy cream paper for it's pages. The idea proved 80 successful that now she makes paper doll bookmarks for her friends, providing each little paper lady with a back of white cardboard and sometimes touching up the fig ures with transparent photograph col ors.
