Something for Milk Producers

Owners of dairy herds are deeply in
terested in knowing the value of each
COW as a milk and cream producer so
that they may know which to keep and
which to get rid Of. 1t being a well
recognized fact among those who have
made study Of the profits in keeping
milk cows, that poor cream producer
is an improbable asset. So that com
plete record may be kept Of each COW
and the owner may have positive knowl-
edge OF the earning capacity of each
individual COW, the state college au-
thoriiies at Pullman, Wash, have pre-
pared blank on which to keep daily
record. These blanks, along with other
valuable information, can be secured by
writing to the Division Of Dairying,
Slate College, Pullman, Wash.

INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE
funds WERE LOOTED
Exact Sum Not Known, but Believed to
Be in NeighborhCod of One
Hundred Thousand

So far it appears that fraudulent war
rants drawn on the county road con-
tractors fund was the method followed
to get the insurance money. Whether
any other fund is loser thru the fraud is
not yet reported. The discovery OF
the loot grew out of fraudulent war
rant purporting to be issued to a man
who gave the name OF John Stark and
claimed to have been injured near
Leavenworth and lost an arm, the mem
Der having been amputated by the late
Or. w. M. Mccoy. An investigation
showed that the amputation occurred
after DR.. Mccoy died.

Wanted to Be a Soldier But Was Short
an Eve

Bernard T. Walters, of Nesquahon-
ing, Pa, who tried to enlist in the u.
S. army at Wilkes Barre, Pa, threatens
to petition congress for the enactment
Of legislation that will permit man
with only one eye to enlist in the
United States Marine Corps.
Though he was rejected at the local
recruiting Office Of the sea-soldiers be-
cause Of a missing left optic, Walters
insists that his remaining eye is strong
and far-seeing enough to do the work
OF two.
II wish l could think SO, explained
Sergeant Frank Stubs, in charge of
the recruiting station. but since some
thing has run afoul of your port side
running light, it would take you twice
as long to see your duty as it would an
ordinary Marine
True, true" Walters agreed readily,
but on the other hand, I would be
able to see only half of the enemy's
forces and would naturally be only half
as scared as a recruit with two eyes"
But stubbs could not be convinced,
and now Walters wants congress to take
a hand in the matter.

.BLEWETT IN SPOT LIGHT
WITH SHOOTING SCRAP
". B. Ridgley and Two Other Men Receive
BuIIetS-NO One Seriously Hurt

Although the shooting took place
last Saturday at the old Meteor mine
up to this time the full particulars have
not been obtained. So far no arrests
have been made. The officers claim
that the owner of the mine had right
to protect his property, but as both the
shooters claim to be the rightful owners
with the matter in the courts and the
ownership undetermined, it seems
criminal proceedings against the violat
ers Of the law will wait on the outcome
of the civil case. At least that is the
way the peace officers seem to look at
the matter, according to the latest re-
ports,
Mr.. Ridgley has been in charge of
the property for some time and has
been doing some work on it. The
Amalgamated Gold Mines Co., Of which
c. R. Heseltine of Seattle is the head,
is the other claimant of the property.
According to the story given out by
Mr.. Ridgley five men arrived at Blewett
last week. One OF these men ne
claims put asphyxiating gas in the mine
and then warned him to keep out OF
the hole. Last Saturday Mr.. Ridgley
and two men were at the mine and five
others appeared, representing the
Amalgamated company. A quarrel
and struggle ensued and the shooting
started. Both sides fired, Mr.. Ridgley
receiving a scalp wound and two Of the
other party received wounds. One in
the leg and another in the arm. Hoves-
gard. who was shot in the leg was
brought to the Leavenworth hospital
and is rapidly recovering.

Disease Prevention a Form Of Economy

Snohomish county has determined to
provide hospital for her citizens SUI
ferine from the Great White Plague.
The movement is not simplya humani-
tartan act, but it is an action that will
protect them and the members of their
families from this dread disease.
In their action they have the hearty
support OF a sanitarian of worldwide re-
nown and one than whom there is no
greater in the world, General William
c. Gorgas, the man who made the
building Of the Panama Canal possible
and who eliminated yellow fever from
Havana. He says:
Hospital care for sufferers from
tuberculosis, if every patient could be
placed in a hospital, would undoubt-
edly stamp out the disease in few
years. There was probably as large a
percent of the population Of England
afflicted by leprosy in the 18th century
as is afflicted today by tuberculosis.
Local hospitals for leprosy stamped out
that disease in England. The plan OF
county hospitals will do the same for
tuberculosis if-and when they are es-
tablished in sufficient numbers and are
sufficiently effective to segregate all
cases in the infective stages"
The people of Snohomish county
have voted with General Gorgas in this
matter. The people in every county
in our state could well afford TO vote
with him. Prevention of disease is the
most rational form Of economy.

During the occupation of Vera Cruz

the fact that almost one Of ten marines

But be that as it may, Uncle Sam

Yet Town Was Crowded With Shop
pers Who Braved Storm.

Leavenworth's first Dollar Day prov
ed quite satisfactory to her business
men notwithstanding the day was one

bered. From ten to eight the snow
came down so fnriously fast one could
not see across the street. True ther.
was not much wind, but this percipita-
tion on top Of foot that had fallen
few days previous made getting about
rather difficult as the roads had not
been broken out since the previous
fall. 1t is quite possible that the
country people had started to town be-
fore the storm broke and would not
turn back. Anyway, they were here in
large numbers. Of those who planned
to leave home after the noon hour
many. it NAV be presumed were de-
tered by the fury OF the storm. Ger
tain it is that a fair day would have
brought out the largest crowd OF shop
pers ever seen in the city. That it was
satisfactory is shown by the comment
made the following day:
Mr.. o. S. Sampson: We were
highly pleased with the day. Our trade
was good"
Mr.. VIM. Mcintosh Of the Mutual
