that Is to use as many new words

We get accustomed to them and they

we must be sure that we understand

To Build Railway This Year

President Wilson last week an
nounced the selection OF Seward as the
seaboard terminus of the proposed
Alaska railway from Fairbanks to the
coast and that the government had
purchased the Alaska Northern railroad
for $1,500,000. 1t was further stated
that construction work on 40 miles Of
the government road will be started
this summer, part of the work to be
done by the government and part by
private contract. About 1000 miles Of
track will eventually be laid. The part
OF the road to be started this summer
is that from Ship creek to the Mata-
nuska coal fields and it is expected
that coal will be delivered TO tidewater
within the next year or so. Most Of
this will be used to supply the ships Of
the navy. The final announcement Of
the route and commencement of work
has already stimulated business condi-
tions in the north and this will soon be
reflected in greater commerce between
the state of Washington and Alaska.

.LFAVFNWORTH LOST TO
WFNATCHEE ON SUNDAY
Both Teams Played fine Ball-WenatChee
Will Be Here Sunday and There
Will Be Something Doing

Last Sunday Bill Elliott's Champs"
journeyed to Wenatchee with all The
confidence in the world. They were
sure that there would be no trouble in
annexing another game to Leaven-
worth's credit. Things didn't work out
quite right, however, and the county
seaters won 8 to 3. The game was a
good one at that and might have be-
longed to either side until the last man
struck out. Collins who twirled for
Leavenworth threw nice game, but
might have fielded his position little
better. There were some errors that
were hard to overlook by the fans, but
the ball player cannot be expected to
play in every game without slop-
over" so forget it.
Wenatchee will be here again Sun
day and the Champs" are working
hard to even up the score. Manager
Elliott says it won't be his fault if he
does not give Leavenworth a winning
team this year.

Referendum Measure No. 9

Addressing the taxpayers and citi-
zens OF the state, the State Federation
OF Taxpayers Efficiency Association
asks the following questions: Dc
you know whether a dollars worth oi
value was received for every dollar
spent by your county, city or school
district What means have you foI
knowing just how the money is being
spent? Do you know that the legisla-
ture has just passed law which will
compel the officers to give you that in
formation? 1t is Senate Bill No. 272
and is now officially known as Chapter
4o of the Sessions Laws Of 1915"
The questions are asked in connec-
ton with attempts being made by GER
tain persons to invoke the referendum
against the budget law, and in refer.
ence to the matter the Association
says: No doubt you are rejoicing
that law Of this nature passed, but
you are not yet through. A strange
thing has happened. They are having
a factional fight in Seattle. Some pol.
iticians of that city (of course you know
why politicians would not like law of
this kindly think there is a chance to
invoke the referendum on this law.
They have made a deal with the lead
ers OF those who are interested in Sc
curing a referendum on other laws, so
proceedings have been started to Sc
cure referendum on the budget law.
Officially it will be known as 'Referen-
dunn Measure No. g. The law was
passed after a fight lasting for num-
Der Of years to secure such law, and
so urgent was the demand that there
appeared at the 1915 session of the
legislature as many as ten members
with plans for such a bill, and there
was not a negative vote in the senate,
and but one member Of the house op-
posed it. The governor also signed it
without hesitancy. 1t is a measure

WELL KNOWN PESHASTIN
CITIZEN DIES SUDDENLY
II. [. Hart, Well Known in This City,
Dropped Dead in Orchard Last
Friday Afternoon

Hiram L. Hart, aged sc years,
prominent orchardist Of Peshastin, died
last Friday afternoon while at work on
his ranch. He was in the best OF
health apparently and with his wife
had planned to attend the Masonic
dance in Leavenworth that evening.
He had gone to the orchard with the
hired man to do some work and made
the remark that he did not feel we'll.
The man suggested that they go to
the house, but Mr.. Hart fell and died
within few minutes.
Hirman L. Hart was born in Canton,
New York, in 1848. He was married
in Nelson, Wisconsin, and two chill
dren were born, Bessie and Burke.
Bessie died in childhood while the son
Burke is located in Quincy, California,
where he is head OF telephone com
pany. The Harts came to Wenatchee
in 1909 from Wisconsin and spent
some time in that city where Mr. Hart
was engaged in house moving, In
1910 they located at Peshastin, where
with James w. Ferguson and James
M. Jack he purchased 81 acre or
chard tract. Mrs. Hart is a sister OF
Mrs. ]. w. Ferguson.
Besides the wife and son Mr.. Hart
is survived by two brothers, George
Hart, of Neilsville, Wisconsin, and Ed
gar Hart, of Washington, D. c., and
one sister, Mrs. Lou Mitchell, of Mad
ison, Nebraska.
His remains were taken to Seattle,
where they were cremated, according
to his wishes.
Mr.. Hart was we'll known in this
city, where he was a frequent visitor.
He was Of a kind, genial disposition
and leaves a large circle Of friends.
Peace to his ashes"

]. B. ADAMS HEADS
FRUIT GROWERS LEAGUE
Elected Tuesday at WenatChee by Four
County League to Position of
Executive Head

Mr.. Adams succeeds Mr. c. T. Has
kell, who was elected at Seattle some
six weeks ago and resigned.
Mr.. Adams was made member oil
the board of control at the same meet
ing that elected Mr. Haskell chairman
and has taken a deep interest in and
shown a grasp on the situation. He
had much to do with securing - 60
operation and help OF the Seattle banks
in financing the movement Of fruit
from the counties OF Chelan, Okanogan,
Douglas and Grant. Since the Seattle
meeting a number of differences of
opinion as to methods, mostly OF non
essential character and minor impor-
tance, have sprung up. Mr.. Adams
was in no way responsible for this con-
dition, was himself large fruit pro-
ducer, and had always shown a willing
ness to work for the best interests Of
the league. After Mr.. Haskell re-
signed Mr.. Adams became the logical
head Of the four-county league. He
has large interests here, is prominently
connected with many local institutions
and has always took part in and helped
any movement that had for its object
the upbuilding and prosperity of the
Upper Wenatchee valley.

.PASTFURIzED MILK
FOR LEAVENWORTH
LeayenwOrth Cooperative Creamery will
Put on Milk Delivery Wagon

From Manager Holcomb, who by
the way has moved his family here,
and will occupy a house near the ball
park, we learn that it is the intention
to supply the people with an absolutely
pure and wholesome quality OF milk.
The management Of the dairy was in
duced to undertake this at the request
OF many citizens and on the sugges-
ton of some of the physicians. Pas
teurizing, if we are correctly informed
is simply heating the milk by means
of steam pipes to a temperature OF lao
degrees, or some 90 degrees below the
boiling point, at which heat any con-
tanned ferments or germs are rendered
harmless. This does not impair the
taste OF the milk or prevent cream
from rising, tho it will not rise so rap
idly or perfectly.
The installation of the machinery
began the first of this week. The cap
to the churn, the butter worker, ice
crusher and several other minor parts
of the machinery has not yet arrived
but is expected by the end of the
week. The plant is equipped with a
capacity for making, in addition to
butter, 100 gallons Of ice cream pei
day. While everything will not be
ready for operation by the last of this
week, everything will have SO far pro-
gressed that those interested can get a
good idea OF what the creamery is cap.
able of doing. A seven and hall
horse power Wagner motor will run the
machinery. The .si1-horse power boil
er will furnish the steam which forms
an important factor in creamery. Be-
side the main room in which the ma
chinery is located there is boiler
room, store room, cold storage room
and office. The building is connected
with a sewer aud everything is ar
ranged with a view to perfect santa
ton. A number of milk contracts
have already been entered into and
everything now looks as if the cream
cry might be in full operation next
week and begin to turn out creamery
products.

Gle FLUM MAN WRITES ON
THE BLEWFTT PASS ROAD
Tells Why it Is Better Route Than the
COIOCkum Roads Shorter and
Shows Finer Scenery

Taking exception to statement
made by Frank M. Fretwell, secretary
OF the Seattle Automobile club, in the
the Post-Intelligencer, relative to the
Blewett Pass deal, M. P. Mckay, a
prominent citizen of Gle Elum, writes
as follows:
l note an article concerning the
highway from Seattle to Spokane where
in the following statement appears:
Heretofore it has been generally be-
lieved that to reach Spokane from the
western coast either the Blewett or the
Colockum pass would have to be used,
but according to recent information,
these mountain passes are done away
with" For what reason is the Biewett
pass TO be done away with when it has

posed routes, 1400 feet lower than the
Colockum pass, and it is stated would
cost $500,000 less to build, and is
scenic all the way from Gle Elum to
Wenatchee along the shores of beauti-
full mountain streams-not over sage
brush plains with scarcely enough water
to drink, and where dust and heat dur
ing the summer months make motoring
task instead of pleasure. From Gle
Elum east the county has already built
ten miles of good road, which will be
used by the state road. A little inves-
tigation would show why this change is
sought and it would quite likely con-
vince the taxpayers that it was another
case of put one over
Ever since the Blewett pass was
found to be superior to all other routes
there has been a persistent effort to
divert the state road from that route.
Which would appeal to the tourist
most, a scenic route along cool noun
tain trout streams all the way, with
plenty of wood and nice camping
places from here to the Columbia river
and over a bridge at Wenatchee, or
throu the desolate section referred to
and over ferry across the Columbia?
Ellensburg will have route to Spokane
via North Yakima. Then why should
the western Washington people as well
as the Spokane people be forced to
make this detour, as the state now has
a road mapped out via North Yakima2
Why parallel it with another?

MUST USE JUDGMENT IN
BUYING DAIRY STOCK
Creamery Manager Advises RanChers to
See Record of Cow Before Buy
ing, or Have Milk Tested

A. ]. Holcomb, manager OF the
Leavenworth Cooperative Creamery, in
an interview with an Echo reporter yes
terday, pointed out number OF things
of interest to the farmer figuring on
buying dairy stock A mistake that
many OF the ranchers are making, he
says, is buying stock they know nothing
about in most cases, either relying on
their own judgment or taking the ven
doris word for it that the cows are all
right. While in many instances the
rancher may get good COWS, the chance
, is all against him as at the present
time firstclass dairy stock is bringing
big prices and the owners are loath to
part with them at all. On the other
hand farmers in dairying communities
are selling off their poor stock and it is
not at all unlikely that some Of the cat
tie that have been disposed of in Leay-
enworth this spring by out Of town
people belonged to this class.
The dairying industry being new to
most of the ranchers in this section it
behooves them to exercise great care
in buying their stock, so that they will
have no after regrets. Mr.. Holcomb
says he has milk tester at the cream
cry building and advises all those who
figure on buying COW to insist on see
ing her record, and even then to bring
him sample of the milk for testing
before the money is paid over. He
will be able to tell them what percent
age of butterfat the milk carries, and
with this information the buyer is not
so apt to get stung. He believes it is
better to buy good stock from the
start and build up herd, which is far
more satisfactory in the end.
As to what kind OF stock to buy, MIR.
Holcomb says that opinions differ, but
from his experience in the creamery
business he has found the mixed breed
of Durham and Jersey to be the best.
The red and roam Durham, he states,
are also good.
While the man intending to buy
stock may think that he is perfectly
capable of selecting his herd, sugges-
tions are always helpful, and The Echo
believes it would be good plan for all
to see and talk with the creamery mana
ger before purchasing. Mr.. Holcomb
has spent many years in the creamery
and dairy business and he expects to
devote all his time toward making the
Leavenworth plant big success.

Changes in Time

A new Great Northern time-card will

on the run between Kansas City and
Seattle. These trains will take the
place OF 25 and 26 which have been

change necessary according to Mr.. L.

nounced for certainty as yet.
