about it." said the grouse. And the
grouse scratched his head and fell into
a long study and didn't pay any atten-
ton to the turkey. who just couldn't
wait to hear how to change his voice.
At last the grouse stood up and said
Il will teach you how to improve
your voice, but first / must have a
present" So the turkey asked what
it was the grouse wanted. And the
grouse said that he wanted collar Of
fine feathers to put round his neck.
will these feathers do?" asked the
turkey, and he pointed to row which
he wore around his legs.
YES" said the grouse. So the tur-
key took them off and gave them to
the grouse.
He was left then with bare legs clear
up past the knees, but the turkey
didn't care; and the grouse was we'll
pleased with his new feather collar
so well pleased that ever since he
spends a great deal of time ruff1ing
and smoothing it.
Finally the grouse asked the turkey
to follow him into the woods and get
upon a log. And the grouse got up on
the log, too, and said:
Nov, when 1 give the signal by tap
ping on the log you must halo just as
loud as you possibly can" And when
all was ready the grouse tapped on the
hollow log, as he knows how to do, so
that the noise went booming through
the woods.
But so excited was the turkey. and
so much noise did the grouse make
when he tapped on the hollow log, that
he could not raise his voice to shout,
but could only gobble. And ever since
then, whenever he has stopped feed
ing and thinks he hears a noise in the
woods, he gets excited and gobbles.

PiekIlna Timber.

Timber experts have discovered that
timbers thoroughly soaked in the
brine Of the great Salt Lake of Utah
are very slow to decay. Piling which
was driven into the bed of the lake
over forty years ago is still in perfect
condition because the timber is thor
oughly impregnated with salt 1t has
been suggested that timbers may be
soaked in the waters of the lake and
then be thoroughly covered with creo-
sote to keep in the salt and keep out
the moisture. Sea water does not
have the same preservatiye influence
on timber because It is not nearly SO
salty as that OF the Salt Lake.-The

You know how silage settles when
first put in. For that reason it is best
to fill two silos, your own or one for
your neighbor, filing one full, then
go back and refill, then finish the sec
ond one. In this way you can put sew
eral tons more in. Here's another way.
Stack your grain near the barn if pos
sible. Fill the silo, using threshing
engine. When full put your force to
work threshing grain. Then go back
and refill the silo.

Capitalists Are Investigating Weyer.

Buying Tax Certificates

MONTESANO, June lit has
leaked out at the court house that
bunch of county capitalists, after
consulting with attorneys. are now
investigating the lands Of the Weyer-
haueser Timber company on which
taxes have not been paid with view
to taking tax liens for the whole
amount, about $4,000.
II this is done, it Is said it will be
the largest tax lien purchase ever
made In the state. The investment
at the least will pay per cent inter-
est and should the big timber con.
Germ lose it's case against the coun-
ty it would pay Is per cent. 1t is
unusual for a big concern to allow
it's taxes to 60 delinquent. Most Of
the timber holders, who are fighting
the tax assessment, have kept their
taxes from going delinquent either
by paying half the taxes or by depos-
iting in the courts the amount they
claim should be assessed.

JEFFERSON OIL
MEETS TONIGHT
Stockholders Will Meet to
Discuss Plans for Sinking
Well 1000 Feet.

The meeting tonight, In Electric
building of the Jefferson Oil Co., is
Of vast importance to Aberdeen and
the entire Grays Harbor country.
Plans for sinking a new we'll on the
Hob river property Of the company
will be explained.
The new we'll will be sunk 1000
feet, under contract, by son of Mr..
o. P. Boggs, the Oklahoma oil ex-
pert, who is most optimistic concern.
ing the Hob river field. No advan.
tage will be taken of the small stock
holders in sinking this we'll, all will
have an opportunity to take additional
stock at 10 cents a share.
At meeting held last Monday
night, some of the principal stock
holders consented to contribute to the
sinking of this we'll to a certain ex.
tent, and w. J. Patterson agreed to
back the proposition until hole was
1000 feet deep, which it is believed
will give the field a fair test. The
necessary money is in the bank, and
Mr.. Boggs wired his son to come on
at once to begin operations.
The Boggs Bros. agree to sink the
we'll 1000 feet for $4,000. the COM
pany to furnish the equipment. The
elder Mr.. Boggs, after studying the
situation over thoroughly, named this
figure, to which must be added ST.
500 for additional equipment. making
a total Of $500 to secure this we'll.
This deal is satisfactory in every
way. The company is guaranteed
we'll 1000 feet deep for upset price,
a price that is very low when the
isolated position of the field is con-
sidered, and the cost of the old hole
at 1865 feet, and the depth Is gener-
ally considered sufficient to try out
the field.

GORE CASE TO JURY.
Court Says to Take No Account OF
Past Character.

Oklahoma City, Feb 1.-THE case
of Mrs. Minnie e. Bond, who is ask
ing $4,000 damages from Thomas p.
Gore, United States senator from
Oklahoma, for an alleged attack made
on her in. a Washington hotel, was
given to the jury for decision today.
Attorneys for both the plaintiff and
defense rested when court opened to-
day. Judge Clark then read his In
structions to the jury, after which 1t
retired to consider the evidence.
The court instructed the jury to
Judge the evidence and credibility OF
the witnesses, both for the plaintiff
and defendant. Judge Clark referred
to the alleged conspiracy against the
senator, and the jury was told II there
was a conspiracy and it was known
to Mrs Bond, then she was party to
1t, and was not entitled to recover
damages.
AS to character, the instructions
said the past character of Mrs Bond
or Gore had no bearing on the case.
The court said If the jury believed an
assault was attempted then the ver-
dict should be for the plaintiff. II
there was no attempt to assault or II
there was a conspiracy in which Mrs.
Bond was a party. then the verdict
must be for the defendant.

Kansas voters VIII probably have an
other chance to decide the question OF
increasing the pay Of members Of the
state legislature. If the plans Of several
men who expect to sit In the legislature
next winter are realized Several times
during the 1913 session the plan for in
creastng the per diem of state law
makers was discussed, but the Demo-
Gratis were busy with their imaginary
economy program and anything that
locked like more pay for q legislator
was discouraged.
Some eight years ago the legislature
adopted q resolution calling for a con-
stitutional amendment that would in
crease the per diem Of members of the
legislature from s. to S q day. And
right there the legislative members who
had preached about the intelligence of
the individual voters and the virtues
OF the initiative and referendum, re-
vised their calendars. All Kansas knew
that the average member of the legis-
lature found 1t impossible to live in To-
peka on a s. day salary. But that
constitutional amendment was slaugh-
tered In q manner that made the law
makers sick with disgust.
Under the state law q provision for
a constitutional amendment cannot be
submitted oftener than once every six
years. So the plan for increased pay
