Washington Imports 100000 Worth
of Dairy Products

While exact figures are not obtain
able, the state dairy inspector estimates
that $1,000, 900 worth Of dairy products
are imported into the state annually.
Others estimate up to $10,000,000,
while it is believed by commission men
that IS per cent of the butter and go
per cent OF the cheese consumed with
in the state is imported. There are
more than 208 creameries operating in
the state and as some of them are not
operating up to their capacity, increas-
ed demand is indicated. There are
thirteen large condensing plants in the
state using about lbs 100000 pounds
of milk and turning out between $4,-
100000 and $5,Oo0,OO0 in product
annually. Washington condensed milk
is in demand the world over and where
ever plenty of milk is obtainable there
is usually capital to start such an en-
terprise.

PRIZES AWARDED FOR SALE
OF XMAS RED CROSS SEALS
Total Receipts Amounted to Over $4,000
The Fight Against TuberCu-
IOSiS Still Goes on

The result Of the recent sale OF Red
Cross seals and the awards in the prize
contest have just been announced by
the Washington Association for the Pre-
vention and Relief Of tuberculosis UNI
der whose auspices the statewide cam
paign was conducted. Competition
was close in several cases. Mount
Vernon secured the three number lee
ture course by percapita sale OF ass
seals, Raymond came second with LIS
seals per capita and Pasco third with
1.61 seals for each person there. Waits
burg won the two number lecture course
with per capita record of 81 seals,
and Kennewick the services Of school
nurse to inspect her schools by selling
3.27 seals per capita, with Pomeroy a
close second. The one lecture prize

of 1888 seals, and Olympia wins the
vacuum cleaner by safe margin over
her nearest competitor, Centralia. The
former sold 1877 seals per capita.
The prizes are awarded on a per cap
tia basis and the towns grouped accord
ing to population. The receipts from
the sale this year are slightly larger
than last, totaling 6,093.70, and mark
ing the most successful sale ever con-
Quoted in the state. Much new terri
tory was covered by enthusiastic agents
and considerable information about tu-
berculosis was disseminated through
the wide spread sale of the seals and
their purpose.

LABOR COMMISSIONER WILL
STUDY HIGH COST OF LIVING
f. W. Olson Plans Report to The legiSIa-
ture on the Cost of Living of
a Family Of five

So that reliable information can be
furnished to people in congested cen
tiers OF opportunities for better condi-
tons in localities where the cost of liv-
ing is less and where avenues Of oppor-
tunities are greater, Labor Commission
er E. w. Olson is planning a report to
the Legislature upon the cost Of living
in various parts of the state for family
OF five persons.
The report will not only show the
average cost but the comparative geo.
GRAPHICAL cost, the difference in living in
the city and in the country and will also
furnish the basis of an intelligent com
parison between the cost of living and
the prevailing wage scales in the vari-
Gus industrial pursuits of the state.
This report will be distinct innova-
ton, never yet having been attempted
by the federal government or any state,
but Mr.. Olson is confident that these
important questions can be reliably
solved.
Heretofore all efforts in this line have
been based upon wholesale market quo
tations, but the commissions coming
report will be based upon the retail
prices of all articles consumed.

SYNOPSIS.

Bud Hooker and Phil De Lancey are
forced owing to a revolution in Mexico,
TO give up their mihing claim and return
to the United States. In the border town
of Gadsden Bud meets Henry Kruger,
wealthy miner, who makes him a propo-
sition to return to Mexico to acquire title
to very rich mine which Kruger had
blown up when he found he had been
The Mexican subsequently had spent
large sum Of money in an unsuccessful
attempt to relocate the vein and then al
lowed the land to revert for taxes. Hook
er and De Lancey arrive at Fortuna. near
where the Eagle Tail mine Is located
They engage Cruz Mendez to acquire the
title for them and begin preliminary
work. Aragon accuses them of jumping
his claim. Hooker discovers that matrl-
monial entanglements prevent Mendez
from acquiring a valid title. Phil, who
has been paying attention to Gracia Ara
gon, decides to turn Mexican and acquire
the title. Aragon fails in his attempt TO
drive them off theoclaim. Rebels are re-
ported in the vicinity. A rich vein or
gold is struck and work on the mine is
stopped until the title can be perfected.
Phil is arrested by Manual del Rey, cap
tain of the rurales and sutton of Gracla s.
He is released on promise to stay away
from Gracia. Phil is forced to enlist In
the rurales. He asks Bud to take care
of Gracia. The rebels are defeated In
fierce battle near Fortuna. Phil deserts
and returns to the United States. BUD
turns Mexican and takes steps to secure
title to the mine in his own name.

as he hunted chem down among the
rocks.
It was grim work, too. even for his
stomach, but Hooker let the Indian fol-
low his nature When Amigo came
back from his hunting there was no
need to ask questions. His eyes shone
so terribly that Hooker said nothing,
but set about cleaning up camp.
After he had washed the ashes from
his eyes, and when the fury had van
ished from Amigos face, they went as
by common consent and gazed at the
body of the chief Of the desperadoes.
Even in death his face seemed strange
ly fam liar; but as Hooker stood gaz-
ing az him the Yaqui picked up his
gun.
Look" he said, and pointed to q
bullet-splash where, as the Mexican
held the gun across his breast, Buds
pistol shot had flattened harmlessly
against the lock- 1t was that which
had saved the Mexican chief from in
slant death, and the jar of the shot
had doubtless broken the rifle and
saved Bud, in turn, from the second
shot.
All this was In the Yaqui's eye as he
carefully tested the action; but, when
he threw down the lever, a cartridge
rose up from the magazine and glided
smoothly into the breech. With a rifle
full of cartridges the ignorant Mexican
had been swapping on an empty cham
Der, not knowing enough to jack up
shell!
For a moment Amigo stared at the
gun and the man, and his mouth drew
down with contempt.
"Ha! Pendejo!" he grunted. and
kicked the corpse with his foot.
But If the Mexican had been a fool,
he had paid the price, for the second
time he snapped his gun AMIGO had
shot him through and through.

them to halt Cheated of his victim at
the first he was claiming the right to
kill.
AS Hooker stood blinded by the
smoke and ashes the fellow took de-
liberate aim and once more his rife
snapped. Then, as the other Mexi-
cans stood agape, surprised at the
failure of the shot, the cannonlike
whang of a Mauser rent the air and
the leader crumpled down in a heap.
An instant later shrill yell rose
from up the canyon and, as the two
Mexicans started and stared, Amigo
came dashing in upon them, splitting
pistol in one hand and his terrible
housekeeping knife brandished
high in the other.
In the dusk his eyes and teeth
cleaned white, his black hair seemed
to 5ristle with fury, and the CLINT of
his long knife made light as he
vaulted over the last rock and went
plunging on their track. For, at the
first glance at this huge, pursuing fig
ure, the two Mexicans had turned and
bolted like rabbits, and now, as the
YaQui whirled in after them, Bud could
hear them sQuealing and scrambling

was raging at his hirelings because
they had shirked their task; perhaps.
not knowing that they were dead. he
was waiting in fever of impotence
for them to accomplish the deed. How
ever it was, Bud saw that he held the
high card. and he was not slow to act
In the morning he saddled Copper
Bottom, who had been confined to the
corral for weeks. and went galloping
into town. There he fingered about
the hotel until he saw his man and
started boldly toward him. Surprise,
alarm and pitiful fear chased them
selves across Aragon's face as he
stood, but Bud walked proudly by.
Good morning, senor!" was all Bud
said. but the look in his eyes was
eloquent Of grim hereafter.
Ard instead of hurrying back to
guard his precious mine Hooker lot-
tered carelessly about town. His

The Land Of Broken Promises
tccsyrsghs. 1914. - Frank a. Mua.ey)

That, in truth, is no jest to the
Mexican people. This man has be-
trayed us all; he has ruined the coun-
try and set brother against brother.
And now, while we starve because the
mines are shut down, he gathers his
family about him in the city and lives
fat on the money he has stolen"
He ran on in this style, after the
fashion of the revoltosos, and by the
very commonplace of his Nominations
Bud was thrown completely off his
guard. That was the way they all
talked, these worthless bandit-beggars
that and telling how they loved the
Americanos-and then, if they got
chance, they would stick knife in
your back.
He listened to the big man with
polite federation, being careful not to
turn his back, and ate few bites as
he waited, but though it was coming
dusk the Mexicans were In no hurry
to depart. Perhaps they hoped to stop
for the night and get him in his sleep.
Still they fingered on, the leader sit
ting on a log and continuing his
harangue
Then, in the middle of a sentence,
and while Bud was bending over the
fire, the Mexican stopped short and
leaned to one side. A tense silence
fell, and Hooker was walked from his
trance by the warning click of gun
lock. Suddenly his mind came back
to his guests, and he ducked like a
flash, but even as he went down he
heard the hammer clack!
The gun had snapped!
Instantly Hooker's hand leaped to
his pistol and he fired from the hip
pointblank at the would-be murderer.
With yell to the others, one Of the
Mexicans sprang on him from behind
and tried to bear him down. They
struggled for a moment while Bud
shot blindly with his pistol and went
down fighting.
Bud was giant compared to the
stunted Mexicans, and he threw them
about like dogs that hang on to bear.
With a man in each hand he rose to
his feet, crushing them down beneath
him; then, in despair of shaking off
his rider, he staggered few steps
and hurled himself over backward into
the fire.
A yell of agony followed their fall
and, as the live Goals bit through the
Mexican's thin shirt, he fought like
cat to get free. Rocks, pots and ket-
ties were kicked in every direction,
and when Hooker leaped to his feet
the Mexican scrambled up and rushed
madly for the creek.
But, though Bud was free, the bat
tie had turned against him, for in the
brief interval of his fight the other
two Mexicans had run for their guns.
The instant he rose they covered him.
Their chief, who by some miracle had
escaped Buds shot, gave a shout for
