Mr. Mcdowell paid s41,760, or $40 per
acre, for the property.
Along the Spokane, Portland &
Seattle line, Spokane TO Snake river,
the crop situation is very discouraging.
With the exception of Kahlotus, there
is hardly an acre Of ground seeded to
fall grain. At Kahlotus, it is said, one
farmer has seeded 240 acres and an
other about 500 acres.
New jobs for 1000 workmen-log
gers, millworkers and shipbuilders-
will be open in Grays Harbor county
within the next 80 days. Employment
agents say GOO men are now needed
in the mills and camps of the Grays
Harbor district at wages the highest
on record in that section.
Running far ahead of earlier esti-
mates, indications are that the north
western apple crop this year will total
$1,000 cars, according to L. ]. Blot,
salesmanager of the Spokane Fruit
growers company. Before picking
started, the mo 1t optimistic estimated
the crop at pot more than $4,000 cars.

A SUBMISSIVE WIFE.
She Was Very Willing and Made Her
Position Perfectly Clear.

There are abundant and often anus
ing instances Of unromantic matches
In the local history and traditions of
New England a century or more ago
There was, for instance, the case Of
Mrs. Submit Pilling OF Hightop farm.
She was left a widow, with a small
son and a few stony acres on her
hands, and for seven years, by the help
Of such sewing and neighborhood nurs-
ing as she could do, she maintained
herself and him. Then, when the boy
was fourteen, legacy came TO her
from an aunt; she bought the adjoin-
ing farm and shortly after married
She got along well enough with her
new husband, who was hard worker
and a man of easy going temperament
but there were occasional differences
Tradition relates that on one such &C.
casion she was overheard firmly, but
without anger, explaining her exact
position to her consort.

you want 'em: only, it's one thing for
a wife to control her behavior and an
other to control her feelin's. There's
apoplexy runs in the family, and if

might bust out by way of shock and
carry me off, and then where'd you be,
Joshuay? William, he's gettin' old

ELECTRIC LIGHT & MORE EGGS

Many poultrymen of the Lynden district who are
unusually successful advise the of artificial
light to make the hens scratch longer these dark
DAYS
Electric lights in your poultry buildings will make
the hens scratch longer and get the exercise they
need During summer weather, they get this exer-
else without resorting to artificial means, but you
need the lights in winter. We can guarantee you
an increased egg production if you use electric
lights as results everywheres are the same.
With eggs selling at 62 cents dozen wholesale in
Seattle, you simply can't afford to be without the
lights. They will pay for themselves in short
time even with feed costs high.
And electric light is absolutely safe. You are in
no danger of fire, which may easily result from a
gasoline, or other lighting system as has been DEM
Onstrated in the past around Lynden.
Don't delay. Get an estimate from us today on the
cost of installing the lights at your place

indicate that shortage OF coal this
