Almost midway of the Atlantic
while hundreds of passengers. safe
aboard 10 big liners, stood by, but
poWeress to offer aid because of the
terrific gale that whipped the angry
sea into mountainous waves. 1876
women, children and men went TO
! their deaths when the Uranium liner
Volturno, torn by mighty explosion
amidships, burned to the waters edge
and sank. The disaster was the worst
since the loss of the Titanic and oc-
Cured last Friday and Saturday.
Efficient use of the wireless brought
the 10 rescue ships to the Volturno's
side and modern invention, working
against the elements, saved 521 of the
651 persons aboard the stricken liner.
For "A hours the flames racked the
hull of the Volturno, while the liner
fleet, carefully surrounding the death
trap, vainly tried to reach her with
small boats and lines.
After the long night of horror came
the dawn which threw an even more
CHASTITY light on the scene, but it also
brought cessation of the storm. The
waves quieted down, and every succor
ship sent small boats to the stern of
the Volturno.
The surviving members of the ships
crew lowered the passengers over the
poop rail into the boats and then fol-
lowed them. The survivors were dis
tributed among the 10 liners and were
taken to the various ports for which
the liners were bound. AS the terri
fed women, children and men were
taken over the sides of steamers, pas
sengers crowded around them, crying
over them and congratu!ating them on
their escape. The rescuing boats then
proceeded on their way, landing the
rescued passengers at New York and
different European ports this week.

been PROPERLY cared for. The depart.
ment did not do thi, during the pres
ent year, he explained, because sufii
cient time had not been available to
make definite announcement to The
farmers oi the purpose of the depart
mcnt, or an opportunity afforded to
teach them how to care for their trees.
He directed particular attention to
the black spot canker and the oyster
shell bark louise, which he designated
as the two worst pests the Western
Washington grower must contend
with, and urged the farmers to do ev-
erything possible to eradicate them.
Cooperation, he said, between the far.
mers, his department, the experiment
stations and the state college is need
ed to place fruit growing on the right
basis and to produce the best results.
Fifty pupils of the eighth grade of
the Washington school attended the
Tuesday morning session to hear Mr.
dress by O NJ. Morris on the growing
of potatoes in which the latter praised
the children of the state for the inter
est displayed in this and other forms
of gardening and told them how by
their care and patience they were be-
coming better potato growers than
their parents, adding that girls make
more of success at gardening than
do boys.
Wednesday an entirely new corps of
teachers arrived to take charge of the
school and on Wednesday and Thurs
day the general subjects of dairying,
soils and crops, and live stock were un-
der discussion. The attendance in
creased considerably on these two
days, some SO farmers being present
Wednesday, while the largest attend

ALL PREPARED FOR
CH|LDREN'S SHOW
First Thurston County Contest at
the Chamber of Commerce
Rooms Saturday.

While many of the farmers of the
county were interested this week in
the lectures delivered by the Pullman
State College experts in the first farm
rs institute that has ben held here for
some time, interest became more stim-
ulated in the Thurston county compe-
ton for prizes in the Boys and Girls
Industrial and Agricultural contest,
which takes place at the Chamber of
Commerce tomorrow, Saturday.
Final arrangements for the compe-
tition are being made today, tables and
shelves being placed for the display of
entries and the final selection Of judg-
es being made. When the farmers who
are attending the institute and the pa
rents and friends of the youngsters
who are competing for prizes enter the
Chamber of Commerce rooms tomor-
row they will be considerably surpris-
ed at the showing made in the short
time for preparation.
Not all of those who have entered
have sent their entry cards to the
Chamber of Commerce, as it was not
required, and consequently a complete
list of exhibitors was not obtainable.
Among the youngsters who will COM
pete for prizes, however. will be found
the following: Ruth Adair, IL years
old, school district No. IL; Verna Mel
son, -, district No. Is; Katharine
Moore, II, Doris Adair, H. and Robert

WHERE DOES COUNTY
GENERAL LEVY GO?
Each Department Makes Estimate
Specific Rate Is Paid
for Each.

Where does the county levy go-how
is 1t made-who spends it--have you
ever asked yourself those questions?
Last week THE WASHINGTON STAND
ARD told you that you would have to
pay county general tax, l. e., tax
for the cost of the general county ad-
ministration, of 1928 mills, a state
tax of S.67 mills, road district tax
of Z mills, and then your different
special school district taxes which will
average about 10 mills, some much
higher, some lower. You know where
the state tax goes, and the road tax
and the special school tax, but how
about the county general tax?
Most every farmer thinks 1t is high
and most every farmer thinks much of
it is wasted. Perhaps it is. Any gov
ernmental system Is usually more
wasteful than would be private bust
ness of the same character and magni-
tude. This county general tax, how
ever. has to be levied for specific pur-
poses. is made up, in fact, of special
levies for each department.
To begin with the various depart
ments estimate what it will cost to run
them during the coming year; then
the commissioners go over that esti-
mate and cut it If they want to, or in
crease it-whichever they think best.
That way they fix the amounts each
department Is to receive.
Taking, then, the assessed valuation
of all the property in the county. they
figure around on each departmental es-
innate until they find mill rate that
will produce the required revenue or
little less than that, never more-the
law does not permit them to go above
the estimate. The individual levies
are then added together and the total
county general levy is obtained.
The assessed valuation of real and
personal property in Thurston county
this year is $14,331 ,601, including the
city of Olympia. Here is now thls
years levy is divided:
