once begin gardening, even in this
modest way, you aren't likely ever to
stop. From things ne eding no care
you will go to others needing a little,
and by and by, working in the
garden, feeling the soft ground under
YOUR feet, getting the fresh fragrance
of the morning air., watching the little
green shoots come up and develop,
seeing the brilliant colors take the
place of the dirty browns and grays
of winter, will be more fun than any
thing you have done since you were
boy.
There is a greater incentive for
gardening nowadays than ever be-
fore. Fresh produce costs more to
buy and home gardens are better
than they used to be. There are
finer varieties of vegetables and flow
ers. It's within the memory of some
of our readers that Sweet Corn and
Celery and Tomatoes came to be gen.
orally known; and the flowers of to-
day-how they have come into their
own! Sweet Peas and Asters and
Cosmos, Pansies, Giant Morning
Glories, California Poppies and all
the other Poppies, these and many
more a generation ago were unknown
in their present glory.
Think about it. Make your plans
now. When ready to plant get seeds
that have been proven by some tried
scotsman of national repute. Elk

bred seeds; they don't waste their

FARMERS INSTITUTE GRATIFYING

The Farmers Institute last Satur-
day was largely attended and keen
interest was manifested by all. Many
regretted that there was not more of
it, deemed that more than one day
could be profitably devoted to such
educational work. Peter Weston, who
was Instrumental in getting the Insti
tnte here, is to be commended. Otto
Tamm has also been active in advanc-
ing agricultural interests in the
neighborhood. Several others are
also headed in the right direction,
and our farming community bids fair
to take first rank in the progress of
the day. The growing Importance OF
agriculture, dairying and kindred
pursuits has taken hold upon the
intelligence of the farmers of this
vicinity and there are many results
to show for it.-Enumclaw Courier.

SOIL SURVEY.

United States Deartpment of Agri-
culture, Office of the Secretary, Wash
ington, d. @.
The report OF the Reconnaissance
Soil Survey of the Western part of
the Puget Sound basin, Washington,
recently made by experts. from the
Bureau of Soils in cooperation with
the State of Washington, has been
issued by the Department of Agricul-
ture. The area surveyed includes all
of San Juan, Island, Kitsap and
Thurston, and parts of Chehalls,
Jefferson, Clallam, Mason and Pierce
counties, and comprises total of A.
288 square miles.
The report contains 116 printed
pages containing typical illustrations
of agricultural scenes in the several
counties, and has two maps of the
area; general soil map showing the
character of the soil embraced by
the survey, and a land classification
map showing the areas logged off,
timbered and cultivated lands. A
large portion of the area consists of
rolling uplands and broad alluvial
river valleys. Every part of the area
is within easy reach of one OF the
larger local markets. LAUNDERING is
still the principal industry in the
large portion of the territory.
Agricultural has progressed rapidly
in the alluvial valleys, but in the up
lands the cost of clearing the logged
off lands has somewhat retarded de-
velopment, states the report. Dairy
farming is one of the most profitable
industries of the area, and in certain
sections fruit growing is rapidly as
Stunning large proportions. In the
southern portion, along the alluvial
valleys, oats and other small grains
are extensively grown.
The cultivated areas in the glacial
uplands are utilized mainly tor such
crops as will yield large returns from
the intensive cultivation of the small
areas, continues the report. Irish
potatoes, Strawberries and other
small fruits, when properly cultivat-
ed, do we'll on these soils. The small
orchards of apples, pears, plums,
prunes and smaller fruits produce
large yields. Only limited acreage
of the uplands occupied by the resi-
dual soils is under cultivation, but
the soils are productive and when
properly cultivated produce large
yields of all crops grown. Oat-hay
and potatoes are the suitable products
of the area.

Peculiar sourca of Income.

A curious story is told as to how the
Rothschilds supported Carafa, the
composer. The latter was far from
rich. His principal income was de-
rived from a snuff-box. And this was
the way of 1t: The snuff-box was
given to the author of La Prison
d'Edinbourgh," about 80 years ago. by
Baron James de Rothschild, as a token
Of esteem. Carafa sold it, "a hours
later, for rs napoleons to the same
jeweler from whom it had been
bought. This became known to Roths-
child, who gave it again to the mu-
stefan on the following year. The next
day 1t returned to the jewelers.. This
traffic continued till the death of the
banker, and longer, still, for his sons
kept up the tradition, to the great
satisfaction of Carafa.

SUGGESTION
FOR FILLING
COUNTY JOBS
JOhnstOwn Democrat Wants Com
missiOners to Vote an all Ap-
pOintees Made BY Them

Johnstown, jan DIR. o. A.
Grantham of this place is in re-
ceipt of a communication, signed by
democrat, which strikes on a
point of vital Importance and inter
est cnocerning the manner of MAX
ing appointments by county COM
missioners. In substance, the COM
munication is as follows:
1T is to be hoped that the new
board OF commissioners will adopt
the plan of all voting on each APP
pointment made in the future by the
board, instead of each commissioner
making the appointment for his own
district, as has been the custom in
the past. If this plan is adopted
the chance for graft will be greatly
lessened. If it had been in vogue
during the last few years the county
would have been saved many dol
lars, the expense OF probing graft
charges, and it is believed that
neither Mr.. Sheely nor the eN-count!
commissioner, who are now in the
penitentiary, would be there, as the
opportunity for graft would moi
have been present.
