ROB CLEAR LAKE BANK.
Masked Bandits ImprisOn Cashier
and Get Away With $500.

Mount Vernon, Nov. 10. - Posses
searching nearby woods have failed
to find the two men, masked with
false boards, who robbed the First
State Bank of Clear Lake. small
town five miles northeast of here,
Wednesday afternoon, locked the
cashier, H. V. Guernsey, in the vault
and escaped in a passing auto bus
which they Communicated at the
point of their revolvers. ]. NJ. Smith,
the driver, was shot though the hand
for trying to ditch his bus TO let
pursuers overtake his car. The rob-
bers escaped with $500 in silver.
overlooking $1,000 in gold and cur
rency on the cashiers table.
The Clear Lake Bank is located on
the main business street of the town
and the holdup occurred in full view
of passersby who, being unarmed,
were unable to stop the robbers be-
fore they forced the stage driver to
hurry them out of town.

CATTLEMEN ORGANIZE.
Holstein- Friesian Breeders of North
west Form Association.

The Northwest Association of Hol-
stein-Friesian Breeders was organ
ICED In Seattle last week, with E. A.
Stuart, of the Carnation stock farms,
as president, and F. s. Stimson, of
Hollywood farm, secretary. Officers
of the National Holstein association
were present at the meeting, as were
breeders from all parts of this state.
The big victories csored by Hol-
stems at the San Francisco exposi-
ton, and the general belief that this
breed is the best milk producer and
most adapted for the climatic cOndi-
tions of the Northwest, have been
factors in stimulating interest in
these cattle. The fine herds already
owned in this territory make it both
easy and economical for the newer
and less we'll to do dairymen to make
a start on a pure bred Holstein-Frie-
sian herd.

OIL WELL IS Financed
Contract Let to Drill Pacific States
to 2,6OO-Foot Depth.


The announcement has Just been
made that contract has been made
with a responsible drilling contractor
to sink the Pacific States we'll. south
west of Tenino, to = depth Of 2.So0
feet, says the Tenino Journal. Oper-
alton at the well is to commence at
once.
The contract was handled through
the firm of Sopher & Schmidt. The
management Of the Scatter Greek OH
company was largely instrumental in
bringing about this contract. a. the
successful termination OF their oper-
atoms depends to great extent upon
the success of the Pacific States Oil
company. The finances for the conn
pletion of this well have been ar
ranged for, and while the contract
calls for the we'll to be drilled $500
feet, the hackers intend to go at least
1000 feet should it prove necessary
to drill to that depth in order to de-
termine whether or not there is oil
to be found at that location.

ELECTIONS
ARE NO INDICATION
REAL ISSUES or 1916 CAMPAIGN
YET TO BE RAISED. SAYS
LISTER,

The issues upon which the 1916
campaigns will be made are to De
raised during the next 10 months,
probably by the next session of con-
gress, in the opinion of Governor
Ernest Lister, who holds, according
ly, that recent Eastern elections
afford no indication of the probable
national political situation of next
year.
Although congress has under the
present administration enacted a
number of notable constructive stat
utes, including the federal reserve
bank system act and the plan for
Alaskan development, the outstand-
ing achievement of the administra-
ton, in the minds of great major
ity, is no action of the Democratic
party as a party, but is President
Wilson's personal achievement in
keeping the United States from being
embroiled in foreign war;" said the
governor. II look to see the real
issues of the 1915 national campaign
developed during the next few
months.
There is little in the Eastern cleo
lions to give any indication of the
national situation. Governor Walsh
OF Massachusetts was elected by 49,
900 votes and now is defeated by
5000 votes, the Progressive vote at
the same time declining from $4,000
to 1000. The change is 30 small as
to, afford no real indication Of chang
ing sentiment. Although losing Mas
sachusetts, the Democrats elected q
governor in Maryland to succeed a
Republican and elected a Democrat
to succeed q Democrat in Kentucky
Massachusetts, normally is Republic
an by a much larger plurality than
the 5000 by which Governor Walsh
was defeated.
,''If a gubernatorial election were
to be held in Washington today. the
fact that President Wilson has kept
the United States out of the war and
at the same time upheld the dignity
of this country, would have little
effect on the election of q governor
in this state. The campaign here
would be fought out on state issues.
I am inclined to think that the same
situation existed in the East, and
therefore doubt2 whether the cleo
tions would have had any particular
Significance II they had shown any
marked changes, which they did not"

LOCAL FARMERS MAY BUY
SELECTED POTATO SEED
Western Washington Experiment
Station Has Supply for
Sale.

County Agent o. c. Van Houten
this week called attention to the offer
made in the November bulletin Of the
Pullman State College whereby local
farmers can obtain from the Western
Washington experiment station at
Puyallup selected potato seed for
planting the coming year. The offer
is set forth in the following article
on Selected Potato Seed" by ]. l..
Stahl, horticulturist at the Puyallup
station:
Considerable has been written on
the subject of hill and seed selection
of potatoes in articles which have APP
peared in previous issues Of this bull
letin and it is hardly opportune. at
this time. to 60 into detail regarding
methods Of potato selection.
1T might be well, however, to urge
growers who have selected desirable
potato seed from their healthiest and
best yielding hills not only to store a
generous supply Of such seed for their
own spring planting but to save any
surplus to sell to their less thought
full neighbors. BY such practice COM
munities may gradually build up de-
sirable and acclimated strains OF po-
tatoes and 1t will not be necessary to
send to other states for inferior pota-
to seed.
Prospective potato growers will
be interested to know that the meth
DDS advocated In the articles on Sc
lection of seed have been practiced
in the potato fields at this experiment
station for several seasons and the
yields for many varieties have been
appreciably increased by such prac-
tice. During the past two years a
surplus of this selected potato seed
has been distributed in small quanti-
ties to growers of Western Washing
ton at a price to cover cost of selec-
ton and packing. A greater acreage
was planted and more desirable pota-
toes were saved for seed this season
than in previous years, SO that the
station is now able to distribute more
selected potato seed than in the past.
This seed will put up in ten-pound
sacks and will be available during
the months of November and Decem-
Der at cents per pound, postage
extra.
Varieties now ready for distribu-
ton are Early Rose, Early Michigan,
Champion, Gold Coin, Melted Gem,
Pride of Multnomah, Up-to-Date and
Wilson's Choice.
Correspondence regarding this
seed should be addressed to the West
ern Washington Experiment Station,
Puyallup."
Van Houten urges local farmers to
take advantage of this offer.
