SPOKANE WAS ONCE
CENTER OF LAKE
Geology Proves the Indian
Legend of Great Earth
quake to Be True.

SPOKANE. Wash, April s.-GeoloEy
and Indian legends have at last found
common ground. Recent geologicai in
vestigations tending to prove that the
present site OF Spokane once was the
center Of q vast lake are corroborated
by traditions handed down by local In
dian tribes, according to Major r. l..
GWS'dir. WHO spent many years among
the natives OF this section. The ira
ditional story OF the origin Of the local
tribe was told to the major by Chief
Whis-tel-posum. OF the lower Spokanes.
as follows:
Centuries ago. long before the pale
face was known on the American con-
tinent, the present site of Spokane, and
the country for many days travel to
the east. was an immense and beautiful
lake. Numerous wooded islands rose
from its surface. abounding with game.
The lake swarmed with fish. Many
well-populated Indian villages lay
around the shores of the lake.
"One summer morning the Inhabitants
were startled by a rumbling and shak-
ing of the earth. The waters of the
lake began rising and pitching, and
soon the waves were running mountain
high. The food threatened to engulf
the entire country. To add to the ter
roFs of the situation the sun was OBJ
scured by an eclipse and darkness en-
veloped the scene. The terror-stricken
inhabitants fed to the hills for safety.
The Quaking of the earth continued
for several days and was followed by a
rain of ashes so heavy that there was
little difference between day and night.
This downpour continued for several
weeks. The waters of the lake receded
and dry land appeared where once the
waters rolled. ...
The remaining Indians died Of star
walton by the thousands. The remnant
which escaped followed the course Of
the receding waters until they arrived
at what now 10 Spokane. Here they
established their FIRST village near what
Is now the intersection Of Broadway and
Post street" sf' -5. '-
The remnant of that tribe still dweils
In Spokane. and. though their ancient
home IL now a part of the clty's park
system. they are permitted to live there
In their tepees unmolested.

CHILDREN WILL HUSTLE
VIII RedoubIe Efforts Delayed by
Excessively Wet Ground.

John Dolph, chairman OF the Gen.
tral Garden Committee, today issued
the following statement:
TT is too bad the splendid garden
work was held back by the heavy.
cold snow that fell last night and
covered the ground. I do not believe
any of the crops suffered by II, as
very few OF the tender plants are
over the ground yet.
But the children were going to
start work in earnest today. They
were going TO make gardening their
Easter Monday pastime. This will
have to be postponed and they will
not be able TO handle the ground for
a day or two. except to lay ii down
with fertilizer, because it is so wet.
But the children have taken such
an interest in the garden work that
they will double up their efforts to-
ward the latter part of the week, be-
fore they have TO go back to school.
For this reason we want fair weather,
II we can get 1t from the weather
man. Their vacation ends on Satur-
day, and they want to get gardens
started before school starts
what we want now is someone to

SNOW DOES LITTLE
DAMAGE TO GARDENS
Cultivation Expert Says Home
Tillers Should Not Be
Discouraged.

Last nights snow did very little
damage to the spring gardens. ac-
cording to H. n. Connolly. demonstra-
tion agent for the District from the
Agricultural Department.
"In some sections of the city, es-
pecially across the Anacostia river,
where sandy soil predominates, many
plants are already up. 1 see no rea-
son why snow should injure most
OF these plants. Snow only forms a
blanket, and does no injury IL the
have been vastly more destructive.
II the weather warns up the snow
will have the same effect as a rain
and will moisten the seed in the
ground and help IL to germinate.
No Cause For DiscouraEement.
Some people have already planted
beans, corn, and other tender plants.
These are not safe from frost. Lima
beans planted early and before the
soil warns up are apt to decay be-
fore they have a chance to sprout.
The gardeners should wait two or
three weeks before planting corn,
b,
beets, peas, potatoes and other hardy
plants are all right and should have
been in the ground.
"The thing to do now is to get the
ground ready. Many people who
have not yet started to work will be
discouraged by the snow and the
lateness OF spring.
The weather, however, should not
discourage them, for there is plenty
time yet for preparing the soil. with
the heavy clay soil common in this
locality 1t is difficult to hurry opera
tions. Clay soils cannot be worked
when wet, because they puddle or
run together, and are very hard to
put in a fine condition for working.
MY advice to gardeners Is not to
become discouraged, but to take ad-
vantage of the next two or three days
and get all the sifted coal ashes and
stable manure out on the land. Then
when the soil becomes dry enough to
break 1t up, they can all be turned
under and mixed with the soil
Coal Ashes Great Aid.
TOO much emphasis cannot be put
upon proper preparation, for upon
this depends much of the success of.
the garden. Good preparation of
clay soils cannot be secured without
the incorporation of organic material
like straw, manure. leaves and so
forth. Sifted coal ashes are a great
aid in loosening up the soil, and
should be more freely used. During
the past week 1 have seen many gar
oens in which the ground has been
broken up, but no coal used when
there was plentiful supply at hand.
1t would do the soil a great deal of
good IL the gardeners would put this
Tightening material on the soil dur
ing the couple OF days they are held
back by last nights snow"

HOW THE SOY BEAN
CAN FIGHT BATTLES
Carl Vrooman, Assistant Seore-
tary of Agriculture, Urges
Use of That Vegetable.
BY CARL VROOMAN.
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture.
Member National Emergency Food
Garden Commission.

Among the simple, nutritious foods
which should be listed on every house.
keepers program OF home prepared
ness Is the Soy or Togo bean, it is
used for human food in Japan and
other countries, though not much yet
In this country.
When soy beans sell for Is cents
a quart, 10 cents worth will supply
over ounces of protein. Ten cents
worth Of beef at 20 cents a pound sup
ply LOUNGE OF protein. Soy beans con-
tain 26 per cent protein, 1S per cent
fat, and 2S per cent carbohydrates
as compared with 26.4 per cent pro-
tetn, per cent fat, and 81 per cent
carbohydrates in navy beans.
This now only makes them a fatty
food but IL makes 1t possible to cook
them without the addition of pork or
other fat. Soy beans can be used in
almost exactly the same way as navy
beans. To prepared baked soy beans,
soak the beans overnight in cold
water: in the morning add a pinch
OF soda and boil the beans in the
water in which they were soaked.
Pour off the water and use it for
making soup. Put the beans in q
baking dish, add two level teaspoon
fuls of salt, cover them. with water,
cover the dish and bake six to eight
hours, leaving the dish uncovered
during the last hour. It's unneces-
sary to flavor them with molasses
as their natural flavor IL delicious.
Since the soy bean contains no
starch, the liquid in which they are
cooked isn't thickened and the beans
remain separate. II this is consider
ed Objectionable. the liquid can be
with corn. meal, one-third
OF cup to a quart of beans.
The skins OF the soy beans can be
removed by boiling the beans for ten
minutes and allowing them to cool
over night in the same water and
then rubbing between the hands.
Most persons prefer the beans with
out the skins. They have a more
delicate flayor and are, probably,
more digestible, when thus prepared.
