Attention was temporarily diverted
from the war news by the announcement
in the papers last Thursday morning of
President Wilson's engagement to Mrs.
Norman Gait of Washington, D. c. the
marriage to take place in December. At
the same time it was announced that
President Wilson will vote for woman
suffrage, but whether that is due to a
pre-nuptial agreement must be left to
conjecture. Mrs Gait is Virginian by
birth, is just past 40, and beautiful and
attractive woman. Her late husband was
member of one of the oldest business
firms in Washington, M. w. Gait & Son,
jewelers., and since his death in 1907 she
has lived in Washington with her moth
er. She has no children. She has long
been intimate with the Presidents fam
lily and his daughters are pleased with
the engagement, and that appears to be
the general sentiment at the National
Capitol. AS there has been some ques-
ton as to the time of Mrs. Wilson's
death we may say that she died at p. m.
Aug. 6, 1914.

Commenting on a recent speech by
Champ Clark, the St. Louis Globe Demo-
crat says:
Being honest. he could not overlook the
fact that the Democratic victory in 1912
was fuke. He knew that Mr.. Wilson
got 100000 fewer votes than Mr.. Taft
and Mr.. Roosevelt and that he fell short
of Mr.. Bryan's 1908 vote 10, 900, not
withstanding the growth in population,
the enfranchisement of the women of
Washington and California and the ad-
mission of Arizona and New Mexico.
The combined vote of the Republicans
and Progressives was also short, "a, 900
less than Mr.. Taft got in 1908, due to so
many disguised Republicans having pro-
nounced a plague on both the factions.

SUNFLOWFRS IMPORTANT
AS AGRICULTURAL CROP
Has Many Important Uses of Which ftu-
man Food is Not Least

Frequent inquiries are received at
the State Experiment Station at Pull
man concerning the growing OF sun
flowers. DR.. Cardiff, Director OF the
Experiment Station, gives the following
information on this plant as an agricul-
tural crop:
The sunfower is an important agri-
cultural crop, though it has not been
used to any great extent in this coun-
try. 1t is cultivated quite extensively
in Russia and used for variety of pur-
poses. 1t makes excellent silage, es-
pecially when mixed with corn and
some legume in about equal parts OF
each. The seed has an unusually high
oil and protein content. On account
Of the latter its growth rapidly exhausts
the nitrogen from the soil and, there
fore, if grown successfully on land, the
soil will require considerable fertilizer.
The oil portion does not exhaust the
soil since the elements from which oil
is made come from the air and water.
The seed is used in the production of
oil, which is extracted by compression,
and is OF value for table use, cooking
purposes, and in general the same use
as is made Of olive oil.
In Russia the seeds of the larger
seeded varieties are sold as peanuts
and in that country, eaten raw. The
plant has also been used quite extern
sively in paper manufacture in some of
the European countries.
The sunhower should be grown upon
soil which is suitable for corn and
planted and cultivated about the same
as corn, though it will stand a little
earlier planting than the latter on ac-
count OF its greater resistance to frost.
1t is crop we'll worthy Of further at
tention in some portion Of this state.

taxpayers Organize With the Object Of
Reducing Tax levieS

The most general movement for the
reduction of taxes throughout the state
that has ever been inaugurated is now
showing results among the tax budget
makers in the cities and counties OF
Washington. There has been very
general disregard, during the past few
years, for the necessity Of running local
governments on a business basis. This
has been particularly true Of the larger
cities. As a consequence the tax
rates have been mounting higher and
higher, until the men who have to pay
the bills have been driven almost to
desperation. Officials have delved into
public funds to establish municipal and
county owned enterprises. To meet
the bills thus incurred there was moth
ing left to do but include it in the tax
levies. Bnt there is now indication
that all this is to cease. Taxpaying
citizens have in many places organized
themselves with view to slashing the
tax levies for 1916. Their represen-
tatives are appearing before the budget
making bodies and insisting that all
unnecessary items be eliminated and,
with the temper of their demands un-
mistakable, results are already ap-
parent. These organizations are ask
ing citizens to appear before their
city councils and county commission
ers to insist that an end be put to all
unnecessary expenditures.

furnished entirely with Washington

the entire state will be invited to par
take in its construction and place

of the plan is to show the people that

courage the use OF goods made in this

The Credit Mans Dream

Last evening was talking
With a merchant aged and gray,
When he told me OF vision had,
I think twas Christmas Day.
While snoozing in his Office
This visit came to view,
For he saw an angel enter.
Dressed in garments white and new
Said the angel: Pm from Heaven;
The Lord just sent me down
To bring you up to glory
And put on your Golden Crown.
You've been friend to everyone.
And worked hard, night and day;
You've supported many thousand
And from few received your pay.
$50 he sent him up to glory)
For you have labored hard,
And the good Lord is preparing
For your most just reward"
Then the angel and the merchant
Started up to Glory's gate,
But when passing close to Hades,
The Angel murmured: "Waitl
I've a place I wish to show you;
It's the hottest place in He'll,
Where the ones who never paid you
In torment ever dwell!'
And behold, the merchant saw them,
His old patrons by the score,
And grabbing up a chair and fan,
He wished for nothing more.
He desired to sit and watch them
AS they'd sizzle, SINCE and burn,
And his eyes would rest on debtors
Whichever way they'd turn.
Said the Angel: Come on, Merchant
There are Pearly Gates to see."
But the merchant only muttered:
This is Heaven enough for me-"

Sure and Harmless Way to Relieve BIOat

This is the time of year when stock
men and owners of milk cows suffer
thru what is known as bloat. Cows
that have been kept up, or have been
fed on dry food, get to rich green and
succulent alfalfa or other grasses, eat
ravenously and then bloat up and die
if relief is not promptly rendered.
One valuable COW was recently lost a
short time ago near Peshastin. The
old remedy has been to puncture the
animal afflicted with some sharp instru-
ment and let the gas, which causes the
bloat, to escape. Mr.. Holcomb, man
ager of the Leavenworth creamery, tells
us that a much more humane and
equally effective way to relieve bloat is
TO take a piece Of rubber hose about
two and a half feet long and force it
down the animals throat. This
method, he says, is equally efficacious
and leaves no sore to heal up. Does
not do the animal a particle OF harm
and has been employed successfully in
hundreds of cases. 1t might be well
for owners OF cows to keep a piece oil
small half inch rubber hose on hand in
case OF emergency.

They Couldn't FOOL Them

There was couple who had two
children, boy Of fourteen and a girl
OF twelve. About that time of life an
other baby came along. With that
prudishness so commonly found, the
parents took the greatest pains that the
children should not know anythin G
about the condition OF their mother or
the impending event, and when the
time approached the girl was sent on
a vacation to some relatives in another
city. At last the great event took
place, and the father came and said
to the boy: Johnny, you have a new
baby brother" The boy said nothing.
The father sat down at his desk and in
few moments handed the boy tele-
gram. Take that to the telegraph
Office" he said, land send it to sister.
Here is dollar to pay the charges. :"
The boy came back after a while and
handed his father the change. What"
said the father, that telegram cost
more than IS cents, didn't it," "Oh,
yes" the boy replied, the one you
wrote would have cost more. 1 sent
one of my own" You did," the
father said, and what did you say?"
oh" the lad replied. Il just wired
sister: I win, it's boy San
Francisco Arponaut.
