WINTER BROKE AND THEN IT
BROKE OUT IN A new PLACE
This Winters Snow Fall Breaks All Pre-
ViOuS Records for Past One
Hundred Years

DR.. A. G. McKeown. official govern
ment weather observer, furnished US
with the following record Of the snow
precipitation for the past three winters.
The observations are taken at s p. m.
every day. The precipitation for March
is unofficial. as it was impossible to
get from the Doctor early this morning
the official record for the last II hours,
but the unofficial figures are l6 inches,
making a grand total for this winter up
to o'clock this morning 272 inches.
According to records kept by the
Hudson Bay Fur Co. at Spokane Falls.
the winter OF 1916 was very much like
this winter, tho we have been unable
to get the exact figures Of the snowfall
for that winter. Until this season there
has been no winter since when the
snow fall came anywhere near the win
ter of 1856.

he came to stay and become one of US.
He brought his family with him. 1t
will be his special effort to hold all the

With his experience he has no doubt
he can supply ali the wants in his line.
There is nothing made from -four, eggs,

SQUIRREL determination

Now is the time to fight the trouble
some ground squirrel. Every farmer
Of Eastern Washington is familiar with
the enormous loss caused by squirrels.
The habit of these animals Of hiber-
mating half the year reduces their dan
ger Of natural destruction and they
thus increase relatively rapidly. Pro-
lessor w. T. Shaw, Of the Washington
Agricultural Experiment Station, has
been studying the ground squirrel OF
the state for half dozen years and has
accumulated a large amount OF infor-
nation in regard to the animals. The
experiment station has just published a
popular bulletin setting forth some oi
the results OF this work. The bulletin
describes briefly the life history and
habits OF the squirrel; its time of hiber-
nation; its diet; the plan Of its dens,
runways, etc., together with detailed
and definite directions for exterminat-
ing the animals.
Three methods of determination are
given, namely, by means of carbon BIZ
sulphide, by means Of poison food, and
by steel traps. Each of these meth
DDS is discussed in detail and the bull
letin will be found especially valuable
to farmers undertaking to combat the
squirrel.
The bulletin is illustrated with color
plates, enabling one to distinguish be-
tween the different species of squirrels.
Illustrations OF plans Of the squirrels
dens are also given. thus enabling one
to apply the methods Of determination
intelligently and economically. At
tention is called to the fact that early
in the spring is the most effective time
to combat these animals. Write to
Experiment Station, Pullman, Wash
ington, for Popular Bulletin No. go.

The Md Band Concert

The Kid Band is an aggregation OF
which this town is proud to boast, and
its entertainments are generously patron
lied by the denizens of this town. At
the Monday night concert the Scenic
theatre was packed with an apprecia-
tive audience. Between the band
numbers were sandwiched vocal and
instrumental solos, all Of which were
encored. Among the soloists were
Mrs. Lou Brender, "Laddie;' Mr.. c.
w. Reed, "Oh, Promise Me-" Mrs.
Gritzmacher, Songs My Mother Used
to Sing" Master Buddy Ault, the
eight year old alto horn soloist was the
hit Of the evening. The kid, not
much larger than his horn, is very
clever. Much of the success of the
concert, as we'll as the band, is due to
the interchangeable energy and persis-
tence OF Bandmaster Mcdaniel, who
has for years devoted his time to teach
ing the boys.

EUROPE WANTS LARGE
AMOUNT AMERICAN LUMBER
Everything Points to Prosperity for the
Lumber lnduSty the Coming
Summer

Everything points to activity in the
lumber industry of Washington. As
this is the leading industry it will affect
all other industries of the state. The
problem that just now disturbs the
lumber men is the labor question.
There is no question but that there
will be a shortage Of men. Already
this shortage is felt. A number OF men
who have in the past worked in the
Leavenworth mills have had offers OF
jobs elsewhere and not few have
taken advantage Of the offers of work
as the mills here will not begin to op-
crate for several weeks. The following
dispatch appeared in the daily press a
few days ago and is only the begin
ming OF what is believed to indicate a
constantly growing demand. It is not
alone the foreign demand which has
given the lumber business cheerful
outlook. The home demand has al
ready given abundant evidence that
this demand will be larger than for
years past.
The Belgian government is in the
market for 100000 feet Of lumber,
according to reports received in Chi
cago. OF this amount 100000 feet
will be in large hewn timbers. Orders
are to be placed on the market thru
the Belgian consul of New Orleans.
Rumors Of large orders from Euro
pean governments form one of the
most interesting features of the lumber
market. One order is said to involve
1,000,600 feet. while another, still
open to competition in Canada and the
northwest, calls for $1,000, 900 feet for
the construction of portable houses.

Death of an Indian Warrior

Gone to the Happy Hunting Grounds
has poor old Johnnie Sticks. Johnnie
was most likely the oldest Indian in
the state OF Washington. He was OF
the Stickine tribe of Canadian Indians,
and many years ago came with his war
riors to do battle with the Indians here.
High water came and they could not
retreat up the Skagit valley whence
they came and all were killed but FIVE,
one OF whom was Johnnie Sticks He
was later parolled and soon after mar
ried a Snohomish woman, who died 90
years ago, leaving a son who in his
turn died at the age Of 70, about nine
years ago. Johnnie outlived five wives
and several children, and was always a
warrior, holding himself superior to all
men.
Until few years ago he killed big
game with a knife, throwing away his
gun at close quarters He died at
the tepee of George Washing, Siwash
Indian, Feb. IA, and since, by his
wish, he hangs in a small canoe, fas-
tened to the limbs of a tree, awaiting
the time OF burial and final Potlach, ac-
cording to the old Indian rights. Con

resting better and as yet there are no
indications that amputation OF either
leg will be necessary.
Yesterday the patient was SO greatly
advanced toward recovery that DR..
Hoxsey believed the stitches, of which.

in all the annals Of railway accidents.

APPLE GROWERS OF
WENATCHEE VALLEY
viii Meet Government Representatives
in Effort to Solve Market
Ing Problems

Mr.. J. B. Adams left Monday even
ing for Wenatchee, where he will be
all week and will meet with c. E. Bas-
sett, C. w. Moomaw, w. H. Kerr and
Judge ]. B. Burns, legal representa-
tives of the agricultural department.
Mr.. Adams has arranged for series ol
meetings with the fruit growers Of the
county. In order to cover the district
two meetings will be held every day.
The Peshastin meeting will be held
on Friday at Q p. m.
Representatives OF the federal de-
partment Of agriculture will endeavor,
in conjunction with the fruit growers,
to work out plan whereby the market
ing end OF the fruit business will get
on something akin to a business basis
and get out OF the haphazzard way oi
selling their apples. For one thing. a
great many Of the growers have decided
to Join the Growers League which. un-
der the management Of Mr.. Adams the
past year. gave all its members very
satisfactory and prompt returns for all
their apples. Mr.. Adams returned Sat
urday evening from trip to the Okla
nogan country where he met with large
meetings of growers at Omak and Okla
hogan, all Of whom, according to re-
port in the Okanogan Independent
were highly pleased with last years
marketing and wish to continue theii
connection with the league.
The Growers League is composed oi
units scattered thruout Chelan and
Okanogan counties and controlled ap-
proximately one-fourth of the dis
trict's apple production. While a
number Of apple growers disposed oi
their crop advantageously who were not
members OF the league. yet taken as
whole the league received better prices
and got more prompt returns, which
means the money for their apples, than
did those who were not affiliated with
it. Quite naturally, as this TACT was es-
tablished. the benefits of league mem
bership became evident, which ac-
counts for the recent movement on the
part of a large number of the more
prominent growers to in the future
act with the organization.
By the close Of the week, after the
meetings Of the growers with the repre-
senlatives Of the government agricultu'
raj bureau shall have been held the
league method Of marketing the apple
crop Of the Wenatchee valley will be
still more popular. The cash method
of selling apples appeals very strongly
to all Of them, and in the future con-
sienment of the fruit will be practically
abandoned.
