MRS. X. L. MCCLELLAN

Seized with a sudden attack of
what DR.. Morrison of Hanford pro-
nounced valvular disease of the
heart, Mrs. K. L. Mcclellan died
suddenly Sunday night after only a
few minutes illness.
Mr.. McClelland says they had re-
tired as usual that night at about
o'clock. Mrs. Mcclellan awakened
him about an hour later, saying she
was in great pain and was having
difficulty in breathing. He tried
to call the neighbors on the phone
but was unable to do 20, and Mrs.
McClellan's condition was so grave
he did not dare to leave her. He
did what he could to relieve her
sufferings but she passed away in
a few minutes, conscious to the
last and with full knowledge that
the end was at hand.
Although both of her parents
died of heart trouble, Mr.. McClel-
Ian says he does not think his wife
had any idea she was so affected.
She had been troubled with rheu-
matism for years, and had had a
couple of dizzy or near-fainting
spells during the last year or two,
but no seriousness was attached to-
them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcclellan came to
White Bluffs about a year ago and
have been living on the Katherine
Kelly tract near the Columbia river.
They had been conducting room
ing house in Kennewick just prior
to coming here. Both Of them
were getting along in years, and
Mr.. Mcclellan has the sympathy of
the entire community in his be.
reavement.
Ruth Melin was born near Gal
weston, Texas, in January, 1867,
and would have been SO years old
on her next birthday. She was
married to K. L. Mcclellan in Van
couver, b. c., in November, 1910.
She is survived, besides her hus-
band, by two sisters and a brother,
who are living in the east.
The funeral was held Tuesday
afternoon at the house and a large
concourse of friends followed the
remains to their last resting place.
Interment was made in the White
Bluffs cemetery, and Rev. e. N.
Quist of the Presbyterian church
conducted the funeral services.

Arctic Owls Come Down
From North. Harbingers
Of Severe Winter Weather

Nearly every winter sees one or
two of the Arctic owls. but they are
sporadically abundant. 1t is only
say Dawson & Bowles in their" Birds
of Washington" on the occasion of
widely concerted movements that
the general attention is drawn to
their presence. Such an extended
! flight occurred in the east in 1902,
when as many as 400 individuals
were reported captured.
In the northwest there was a
great visitation of the snowy owls
in 1867 and another in 190S-9.
In each Of these cases the winter
has been severe one, which lends
color to the belief that the owls
come south, driven out by inclem-
encies in their home hunting
grounds.
The snowy owl is as big as a
brant and has a great white disk
from which peer yellow irised eyes.
Its beak is large and black and it
has no plumicorns.
In connection with the capture
Of the owl in Portland, w. l.. Fin
ley, the best posted bird man in
Oregon, recalls only one other com
ing of the snowy owl to Oregon.
That was about ten years ago, he
says, which probably refers to the
1908 migration. A man who killed
one in Seattle several years ago
said it was the first of the kind he
or the people In that vicinity had
ever seen, which shows how rare
the bird is, generally speaking.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1916-12-01

The snowy or white owl of up
per British Columbia and Alaska,
the harbinger of a hard winter, so
the Indians claim, are wintering
this year in Washington and Ore
gon, camping on both sides of the
Cascades. The bird is large one,
being nearly the size of an eagle,
is greyish white in color. and the
feathers on its legs and lower part
of it's body are Of woody nature.
Four or five of the birds have
been seen in the valley within the
past ten days and M. S. Brannick
is reported to have shot one this
week.
Four of the birds have been shot
within the past week in and around
Yakima and the capture of one in
the vicinity of Portland, says the
Yakima Herald. would make it APP
pear that the visitation is extended
and of considerable magnitude.
The four specimens at the taxi
dermists vary considerably in size
and markings, but are undoubtedly
all the same bird. The body color
is white, but while one is only
family and narrowly barred with
brown, another has very distinct
and fairly heavy barring. The lat
ter is probably a female as they
run darker in plumage.
This handsome visitor from the
north, which apparently every one
shoots upon sight, is protected in
the state Of Oregon and should be
by the Washington game laws.

WALTER q. GRIFFITHS

Word has been received by the
Spokesman of the death of Walter
G. Griffiths, which occurred in Seat
tie Sunday night, November 26th.
Mr.. Griffiths had been suffering for
a long time with cancer of the
stomach.
The deceased was born in Abber-
gavenny, South Wales, July 10,
1848. He came to the United
States in 1872, finally locating in
the Yakima valley in the year 1879.
Sometime later he homesteaded in
the White Bluffs valley, but for the
past two or three years has been
residing in Seattle.
He leaves, besides his widow
four children to mourn his loss

fifth of North Yakima; Ora Hedrick
and Marion Griffith of Seattle, and
Ruth Brown of Wiley City. One
son preceded him to the great be-
yond.
The remains were taken to North
Yakima and interment was made in
Tahoma cemetery.
Mr.. Griffiths was we'll known tc
a great many people at White
Bluffs, where he lived for several
years. His homestead cabin, made
of drift logs, is still standing. II
is located just west of the Martin
J O'Brien orchard tract.

Enthusiasm for FurS.

Furs have invaded every branch of
woman's apparel as the most desired
of garnitureS. There is an immense
enthusiasm for them. They add
SumptuOus touch to coats and suits
And wraps of all kinds. In millinery
a border or collar of fur on lace or
fiOwer-trimmed hat makes places for
its summery gayeties in the depth Of
winter. Millinery designers delight in
the touch of fur.
Just about the best asset in the
winters wardrobe is a fur set of some
sort-a neckpiece little or big, and
smart muff. They are worn with
coats and suits, one-piece frocks, and
evening wraps. Anything unusual or
original in designing them, so long as
it is graceful, adds much to their dis
tinction. The woman who is clever
about making things for herself at
home can make small fancy neckpieces
and pillow muffs of fur or of fur and
q material combined.
The Benson signal., 1916-12-02

The handsome set pictured is made
of moleskin bOrdered with Hudson
seal. The small cape, rather full is
heightened by two ruff1es of moleskin,
and has the effect of triple cape, each
one of them bordered with the seal.
There are two similar ruff1es at each
side of the muff. The ruffles are lined
with mole-colored satin, and the very
modish collar muff1es up the neck in
the approved style.
All the soft, loosely woven cloths
that are fashionable are combined
with fur landings in smart sets. Vel
vet, brocade, and rich ribbons play an
important role also in fashiOning them.
Neckpieces in combinations of fabrics
and fur are usually small, but muffs
are larger than many all-fur muffs.
Large fur-covered buttons and hanging
balls of fur are among the embellish-
ments that fashion approves. Occa.

Concerning Skating Sets.

The golden days of Indian summer
might make us forget winter, or cease
to believe in it, If it were not for
forecasts in the shop windows. They
are full of fineries and furbelOws for
Christmas gifts, and furs and wraps
that will warm those who. wear them
to the soul; Or let us hope so. It is
to be gathered from them that skating
will be winters foremost pastime, for
there are all sorts of skating outfits
displayed.
There are costumes among them in
which sports cloths reach the apex
of luxury and beauty, and there are
many unpretentiOus but captivating
skating sets, sometimes Of three
pieces, and often of two. The three
piece sets include muff1er, cape, and
muff to match, and the twO-piece sets
muff1er and cape or hat. They make
ideal Christmas gifts.
Several of the new materials, as
wool velours. Bolivia cloth, and the
lighter fur-fabrics are perfectly adapt
ed to these sets. EiderdOwn is an
ideal material for them, and the set
shown in the picture is made Of it.
But any of the soft, woolly cloths
might be used for the plain muff1er
and to cover the small hat shape. with

tivated three inches deep there re-
main but three inches Of loose, plOwed
soil in which the corn roots can feed
undisturbed by summer cultivation,
but if plowed ten inches deep and
similarly cultivated there remains
more than twice as much loose, undis-
turbed soil for the corn roots.
Deep Flowing Best.
For deep, rich soil deep plowing
is therefore best, providing 1t is done
in the fall or does not render the soil
too loose and dry. For thin clay soils
subsoiling is better than very deep
plowing, because it does not turn the
compact clay to the surface, yet at
the same time it loosens the soil to
a good depth. The plowing should
not be at the same depth from year
to year, as by such practice the soil
is not mixed well, and hardpan may
be formed at the bottom of the burrows
where the horses walk and the plows
drag. A thin layer of subsoil turned
to-. the surface occasionally so that it

about the same good effect. The hat is
held on by bride of eiderdown, and
the sportive-looking pompon is made
Of yarn, which is of all things the
best for decorating skating sets.
Besides the sets made of fabrics
there are practical and handsome
ones of yarns. Angora is the coziest
looking of these. White bordered with
colored stripes and bright colors,
trimmed with white, seem to match up
best with winter landscape; at any
rate this is the opinion of those who
have designed skating togs. But more
audacious color combinations may ex-
pect to meet with approval against a
background Of ice and snow, and after
all is said, there is nothing better
than vivid Scotch plaids for winter
sports.
The Benson signal., 1916-12-02

is exposed to weathering, gradually
mingles with surface soil and vege-
table growth, and the soil depth thus
becomes increased. 1t is well, there
fore, to plow little deeper each year
for several successive seasons, and
then for one season to plow at about
half the depth Of the deepest plowing.
The plow should be so adjusted that
it will turn all the soils and leave the
surface smooth. In every instance,
spring-plowed land should be pulver-
lied the same day it is plowed.
Deep Cultivation.
Where a heavy growth of clover or
weeds or heavy application Of ma
nure has been plowed under in the
fall, the land should be given, just pre-
vious to planting, cultivation as deep
as it was plowed. This deep cultiva-
ton mixes the humus throughout the
soil and is of more value than any
cultivation the corn crop can be given.
1t is economical, because wider culti-
vators and more horses can be en-
ployed per man than is possible after
the corn is planted.
AS a general rule, corn should never
be planted before the seedbed is thor
oughly prepared. Planting in poorly
prepared seedbed for the single pur-
pose of getting the seed in the ground
early rarely pays. With a well-pre-
pared seedbed the cultivation of the
corn is, in sense, half done.
