turned TO little pile Of partially burn

remarked: I've never liked milk
since the time ! ran marine dairy"
Scrambling down the Jacobs ladder
to the floor of the marine railway, the
veteran navigator who has handled
1922 vessels of all descriptions since
bis advent as pilot, was induced to
further explain his initial declaration
by saying:
Il don't suppose you ever heard OF
such thing, Ell? Well. 1t was a sue
cess while it lasted, and not only
made money, but broke the corner
in butter which some of the famous
New York financiers had engineered.
And, like all these strange adventures,
it came about by chance.
Il was captain of the full-rigged
ship Last Hope. We were coming
home 10 New York from Rio Janeiro
in ballast. The owners were pretty
stingy, and they hadn't been any too
liberal with supplies so the sailors
had to catch fish and sea birds when
they wanted q change. While be-
Gained down near the line saw four
Zig sea cows asleep on the water. /
ordered boat out and the men
caught the whole four and brought
them safely on board. What's that?
What's a sea COW? Why, they're
common down in the South Atlantic.
They're something of a cross between
a seal and whale You can milk
them like an ordinary COW, and the
milk is delicious.
We'll, sir, these four cows gave so
much milk that / got the idea in my
head that we might as well have some
fresh butter and a little cheese.
put the crew to work making butter.
They soon became quite expert with
the churn. What wasn't eaten | had
stored away in the hold We were
beealmed for nearly six weeks, and
during that time the COWS gave milk
steadily and the men ehurned away
went below one day and found the
entire hold filled with butter and
cheeses. Just about this time a fair
wind sprang up and l laid q course
for New York. The sea cows had
done so well by us that I let them
overheard again and saw them swim
away happily.
when we reached New York har-
Dor and the owners came on board
they nearly tainted with delight when
showed them the load of butter.
Then they told me about the corner
in butter that the financiers had Sc
cured, and how they couldn't get an
ounce of butter unless you paid an
outrageous price. The owners, took
this cargo of butter aud dumped it on
the market. Great Neptunei but the
way the dealers bought it up would
have done your heart good In three
days it was all sold. and sold at fair
price, but with great profit to us. In
fact, my share of that cargo enabled
me TO tour the United States in my
private car. But / drank so much
milk and ate so much butter during
those days at sea that / haven't been
able to look at milk since.f

for some hours in the vicinity of the
Pacific Mail booking office. -
Rose admitted on the witness stand
before District Magistrate Larnach on
Saturday last, that he derived con-
siderable revenue from Spanish or
Portuguese immigrants who desired
to leave the Hawaiian Islands for the
Coast. -...= .,..z,.:.,,...a ..

Rose. :l....-.... ...=-.
nothing, and for such service as l
can render the immigrant in getting
out of the country, / receive at least
a dollar per head" ... 49,
Rose was questioned concerning
the methods pursued by himself in
assisting the Immigrants in leaving
the islands, and he stated that his
duties lay mainly in arranging for
their transportation with the several
local steamship agencies, the secur-
ing of the tickets, and acting as in
terpreter in matters under discussion.
Il look after the interests of my
clients to the best of my ability"
further declared Rose. ..-.
In as much as Spanish and Portu-
guese immigrants are leaving the is
lands for the Coast at the rate of be-
tween three and five hundred each
month, Rose is alleged as making a
net sum through his friendly offices
as immigration agent, or as he puts
it "errand boy for the Spanish
consul" ~. -s-..,- ...
Rose also vouched the interesting
information in giving testimony at the
lower court, that he had frequently
eral island sugar plantations, in the
capacity of interpreter or in repre-
senting his clients. u -.
According to Rose, it often hap
pens that the immigrant is undecided
whether to locate in California or
take up labor in the inter-mountain
states or along the Puget Sound
country. At any rate by the payment
of one dollar to Rose, the immigrant
is understood to be sent on his way
to the mainland rejoicing. s.
1T is a part of my duties to see
the immigrant safely on the depart
ing steamer, while also look after
n.s personal effects. ..-...
Rose was arraigned for assault and
battery upon Andre Garcia who al
legged that he attempted to secure the
assistance Of Rose in leaving the is
lands. Through some disagreement,
angry words followed, and the defend
ami alleged that he was bodily ousted
from the immigration station.
Rose officiated as his own attorney,
while Judge Monsarrat, believing him
self disqualified, made way for Judge
i.arnach on the district court bench
Rose was again hailed into court
this morning, the complaining witness
being A. Alameda. who latter decided
that he would withdraw charges of
assault and battery. Rose was there
fore granted nolle prosequi
One hundred and ninety Span
ish and Portuguese have been issued
transportation to San Francisco in
the Pacific Mail liner Mongolia. This
will represent the largest number of
immigrants leaving the islands in a

WILL TURN LOGGED
0FFLAND TO ACCOUNT

In the Upper Valley. especially the
lower part, lying on the divide be-
tween the Dee communities and the
lower Parkdale district, are several
hundred acres of logged off lands. The
blackberry briars and other underbrush
and plant growth thrive in these burnt
over logged off areas, and it is the
opinion of c. K. Bone, of the Bone
borro Orchard Co., which owns several
hunrded acres of this land, that it can
be turned to good account without the
expenditure of large sums for clearing.
Mr.. Bone is planning on sowing rye
and clover broadcast OH the land this
fall and of pasturing it next year. Al
though the tracts are not irrigated the
clover that has sprung up along the
roadsides in this deep soil grows luxur-
iantly until late summer.
The region grows wheat second to
none in the state. A tract sowed to
this grain adjoining the logged off land
bids fair, if it were allowed to come to
maturity, TO produce more than &C
bushels to the acre. Ii is now being
harvested for hay.
Mr.. Bone thinks that the tracts al
ready cleared can be planted to hay to
make food for the winter months, while
the spring and summer food for large
herds would be secured from these
areas of logged off land.
The Boneboro Orchard Co., which
has more than 100 acres of young trees
planted in the deep led shot soil of this
district. is composed. in addition to MIR.
Bone, of Myron Bruner, formerly in
the real estate business here, but who
now resides in Rockford, Ill.,, v. C.
Brock and j. w. Mcdonald.

TROUT LAKE.

Deer in the hills around Trout Lake
have just gotten wind of the fact that
the hunting season is over. b. r.
Richter and Rufus Byrkett. driving Ia
White Salmon last Monday. saw y
young buck and his mate a hundred
feet ahead of them in the road. THE
deer were in no hurry to get out of
sight. Last Thursday a deer was seen
in the vicinity of Thode's hall. A
crowd endeavored to corral him in the
base ball park, but were too slow. One
report has it that the deer was too
wary. Which is right?
The valley has been favored with a
good soaking rain. that gave the farm
ers much needed let up from irriga-
tion. The crops look good. The first
cutting of clover will begin in about
ten days.
Strawberries are ripening, the damp.
cool weather causing them to fill out in
fine shape.
Trout Lake is planning a Fourth'of
July celebration.
