WOULD REDUCE LEvlEs
Taxpayer League Opposes Good
Roads Congress Before legls-
latlve Committees.

OLYMPIA, Jan. 2S.-Representa-
tives Of the Taxpayers League and
Of the Good Roads Congress are meas.
uring blades before joint committees
of the legislature on the question of
the reduction of road levies These
levies will result in road building

biennium. Those advocating lower
taxation declare 1t absolutely essen
tial to lop huge chunk off this total
while supporters of good roads assev-
crate that sny reduction in the levy
will cause q big eu-'a ,"r+ in the
elaborate prospective highway plans
inaugurated by the lesis,a dre two
years ago and give the good roads

LISTER PRIMES ESTIMATES
Governor Sets Mark IN First 6udne
Ever Sent to Washington
Legislature.

OLYMPIA. Jan. 2S.-In the first
budget ever submitted to a Washing
ton legislature Governor Ernest Lister
pruned nearly quarter of a million
dollars from appropriations for all de-
partments and institutions under his
supervision as compared with appro-
priations for these departments two
years ago. This big reduction is in
line with the governors pronounced
economy policy. The budget system
instituted by Governor Lister will, in
all likelihood, hereafter be feature
of legislative sessions, AS it gives that
body definite idea of the administra-
TONS departmental requirements.

NORRIS SHOWS HOW

Pullman Hortlculturlot Gives Method
for PIT That Finally Becomes
Cold Frame.

PULLMAN, Jan. 2s.-"To prepare a
hotbed," says Horticultural o. M. Nor

horse barns and mix with the pure
manure an equal amount of straw that
has been used for-hedding. Fork this
over we'll and pile in heap and let
stand for about two days. II it does
not start to heat in this time moisten
the entire pile with warm water.
Prepare pit for the manure bed.
This should be located on the south
side of buildings with good exposure
to the sun. The pit should be about
two feet deep, not over six feet wide
and as long as desired. 1t is prefer.
able to have the long measure east
and west. AS soon as the manure has
started to heat we'll, it should be plac.
ed in the pit and carefully tramped.
This is the best method Of packing
the manure evenly in all parts of the
bed. II 1t seems dry add enough water
to dampen, but do not apply enough
to saturate the bed. Let the bed stand
until It 10 heating we'll throughout,
then cover with five or six inches
Of good garden loan. Let this stand
for three or four days and then work
down the surface with a rake and the
bed ID ready for seeding.
"A broad frame, 10 or IL inches high
on the south and double that on the
north, should be placed about the bed
when the pit is prepared. The glass
sash or cloth covering used should be
placed on as soon as the manure is
packed in.
"A bed prepared in this way will fur
nish heat about six weeks. The tenn
perature will run high at the start and
gradually 60 down. At the end of
six weeks the hot bed becomes a cold
frame and will protect plants from
frosts but not hard freezes"

in the holiday holdups by
the confession Of his partner, George
Bonner, has been found by the police
and he is believed to have fled this
section of the country. Ross witness

the women yere trying to shield Ross,
or whether they did not know of his

While the bill introduced by Sena-
tor e. e. Boner in the senate the other
day providing for holding of sessions
of the superior court at Aberdeen, has
passed the senate and gone to the

is extremely problematical. In view
Of the opposition that has developed,
since its introduction, in Grays Harbor

Washington National Forest
Sold to l42 Individual Pur.
chasers in 1914

PORTLAND, Jan. 28.-The district
forester here announces that during
the fiscal year 1914, there were sci
timber sales made from national for
ests in Oregon, and 142 from nation.
al forests in Washington. This rep.
resents 22,594,000 feet board measure
for Oregon, and 99,146,000 feet board
measure for Washington.
A superficial consideration of these
figures is apt to be misleading; but
the district forester points out that a
study of the forest service records
and Of the conditions in the two
states will show that the figures are
normal. In Washington, the forests
are mainly in the Douglas fir region
west Of the Cascades, and are not as
accessible as the more open yellow
pine forests of the east side.
Generally speaking, logging in this
type Of forest requires large invest
ment. Hence. the sales are fewer in
number, but larger in volume Of board
feet. Then. too, most Of the settlers
on the west side have their own wood.
lots. and buy little government tim.
Der. In Oregon. large proportion
Of the national forests are east Of
the Cascades in the yellow pine re.
gion. Here. in the dry region. most
Of the timber 10 on the national for
ests. and both settlers and lumbermen
are dependent upon the national for.
ests for their needs. When these
facts are understood. the excess Of
timber sales in one section over an.
other 10 easily explained.

BY Capt. James Il. schocI<.

Fred Franz. sheriff of Berrien
county. Michigan, sat in his office one
day n the early part of october,
wondering what to do. He had his
Jail fun of desperate characters, and
chased all the 6ther undesirables out
of his county. SO his mind turned to
other things to do. Chief Alden of
the St Joseph police force came into
the office about that time and said
Lets go TO South Bend and see kues-
pert" The very thing.
SO the sheriff and Chief Alden went
out and wound up the sheriff's Ford
and went TO South Bend. Now 1t hap
pened that John Kuespert, chief OF
detectives i'm South Bend, was in the
same fix as Sheriff Franz. He had
all of his criminals rounded up, or
chased out of town, and was wishing
he had something 20 do, when Sheriff
Franz and Chief Alden came into his
office. Sheriff Frank asked John how
the business was. and John replied
that he had nothing TO do at pres
ent.
That's the way I'm situated" said
the sheriff: let's so hunting
I'm with you" said Kuespert.
And SO they got TO talking about
a hunting trip. About that time, Ed
Shannon. the handspring" of the
South Bend detective agency, came
into Chief Kuesperts office to see If
there was anything doing. The hunt
ing trip was sprung" on Shannon,
and he fell" for II Immediately. He
suggested that his friend Ralph
Jones OF the Windsor hotel, be given
a chance to go along, and this being
satisfactory with Kuespert and Franz,
Jones was elected a member OF the
hunting party. Arrangements were
also made for John (Humpy) Bach

Here is Story Of 4 Mighty Hunters

To wage fierce war on the deer and
bear.
They'll meet Christ Miller, of the town
OF Sands.
He is the friend VINO owns the lands
On which they'll hunt, with right
good cheer,
For the herds of bear and the focks
of deer.
Now Sheriff Franz has an outfit fine,
The selection of which took a lot Of
time.
And among these things which he
dearly loves,
Is a great big pair of bearskin gloves.
Well they started out on their wonder
full hunt
And believe me kids, it was sure some
stunt
They had hunted for hours. when.
heavens above
The sheriff discovered he'd lost one
Of his gloves.
They retraced their steps to where
they had started,
The sheriff, of course, was very sad
hearted
Fred was remarking now isn't it
hell"
When off in the distance they heard
a fierce yell.
They stood still and listened; they'd
no time to flee,
l think they were planning on climb
ing a tree.
Then down through the woods. all
sweating and steaming,
Came Kuespert and Jones. both fran
tically screaming.
When they saw Franz and shannon.
they sat down and rested,
And told how their courage had so
sorely been tested.
They said they were tracking a deer
to its lair,
When all of a sudden they saw a big
bear.
Then Kuespert and Jones and Shan
non and Franz
Went back through the woods, with
the hope of a chance
To get that big bear and take on his
sin,
For TO let him escape would be a
great sin,
So Franz and Ed Shannon they took
up the lead,
For kueSpert and Jones were exhaust
ed indeed.
They went back four miles on that
hastily made path,
When Franz and shannon both start
ed TO laugh.
"Oh, why are you laughing" John
KueSpert then said.
1--WE got a big notion 10 punch your
fat head"
Then shannon. still laughing. gave
kuespert a shove.
For there in the path lay the sheriff's
lost glove.
Then KuesDert and Jones started back
for their camp.
They were almost all IN" from their
hard mornings tramp.
But the sheriff and shannon continued
10 laugh.
For Ralph and John made their run
in three minutes and a half.
