Contracts for the American Lake
cantonment, the fifth to be awarded,
were let to a Tacoma firm.
Location of the remaining national
guard camps is now under considera-
ton. All probably will go into the
southeastern or southern depart
ments, as they will be canvas camps,
unsuited to severe climates.
Constructing quartermasters al
ready have been assigned for all the
cantonment sites and plans approved
in detail. In each case. however,
supplementing the standardized
building program, local necessities
as to roads, sewers, lighting facilities
and connecting branch lines with
steam and electrical railways will
have to be worked out.

Every town and community has
more or less able bodied young
men, who apparently do not earn
their salt, but are eating up the
fruits of the labors of others, pro-
ducing nothing; just wasting God
given time. If every boy could
realize that working the coming
summer would mean furnishing of
food for ten or more men in the
trenches, or as many starving
mouths, he would realize truth,
for the six millions of our farm
laborers produce for l00,000,000
people, besides the amount export
ed. The business world has no use
for an idle man, and idle rich are
no exception, and the day is here
when the boy hanging around town
who is able to do something for his
country in some capacity will find
little favor with the people. This
ought to be the year when he who
does not work cannot eat.-Orofino

War Cantonments Approved

Four sites for war army divisional
environments have been approved,
completing the list of 16 points at
which military towns are to be built
by September l, when the first draft
troops will be called to the colors.
At each cantonment full division
will be given its preliminary train
ing before being sent to Europe for
final instruction behind the fighting
lines. They will be located as
follows:
Aver, Mass; Yaphand, Long Is
land, N. Y; Wrightstown, N. j.;
Annapolis Junction, Md; Peters
burg, Va; Atlanta, Ca; Columbia,
S, c.; Chillicothe, Ohio: Louisville,
KY; Battle Creek, Mich; Little
Rock. Ark: Rockford, Ill.,; Des
Moines, Iowa; Fort Riley, Kan. !;
Fort Sam Houston, Texas; American
Lake, Wash.
In addition to these the following
six of 16 camp sites for divisions of
the national guard have been form
ally announced:
Fort Worth. Texas; Waco, Texas;
Houston. Texas; Fort Sill, Okla. :;
Deming. N. M; Linda Vista, Cal.
1t is probable that seventh national
guard camp will be established in
conjunction with the national army
cantonment at American Lake,
Wash.
A start already has been made on
the enormous construction task
ahead of the war department and
the council of national defence.

week than during any preceding
week for nearly two months. But
the excess probably marks no more
than the fortuitous fluctuations in
this kind of warfare, and does not,
necessarily, signify increased effici-
ency on the part of the submarines.
Preceding this report came the news
that a high German admiralty offic-
ial has, in answer to inquiries, as
sured the German people that only
another month is needed for the
submarines to bring The British to
their knees with a plea for mercy.
The fact that the German people
have become inquisitive implies a
growing skepticism of the promises
with which thev have been fed in
the past. They begin to doubt,
evidently, and doubling makes them
impatient for the fulfillment Of
overdue promises. These are re-
newed with a new promise, and one
which bears a fixed early date for
liquidation. Of course, the Ger
man expectations will fail, but
there is no doubt the destruction is
of serious consequence to the allied
nations, and becoming more serious
every day. Tribune.

The Lewiston Tribune says that:
The wool clip of the Lewiston coun-
try will this season approximate
508,500 pounds according to the
estimate of sheepmen, and an offer
of 55 cents per pound has been re-
fused for the larger clips. Based
on the offer declined. the value of
the Lewiston country sheep clip this
season will amount to $224,675.
Those who voted against the pro-
posed highway district should have
some sort of punishment meted out
to them and we can think of nothing
more drastic than for them to be
compelled to take joy ride over all
the roads within the boundaries of
the proposed district, in their pres
ent condition, in an 1899 Ford car
on fiat tires.
While there is a shortage Of labor
in this locality farmers have the
satisfaction of knowing that their
bean land will need very much less
attention from the man with the hoe
than it did last season. The wealth
er has been too cold to warrant
beans being planted at the usual
time but it allowed the farmers to
cultivate the ground thoroughly
several times before planting. This
will materially decrease the weed
crop and will allow a greater part
of the process of killing the weeds
to be done with cultivators. There
have been numerous stories floating
around about the big wages to be
paid by bean raisers this year, but
upon inquiry from several of the
largest growers it is said that the
wages will not be very materially
increased over last season.
Kendrick is still in need of houses

One of the decorative assets that

this season is ribbon. For hats they
will be the trimming perhaps most
seen, and literally miles of ribbon of
every width will be used for their

price from few cents a yard for the
dainty picot-edged silk ribbon to some
where about so yard for the sump-
