1 The real active life of the 325 cadets 1 of the U. $. Junior Naval reserve who are camping at kitemaug begins today with a four day hike to Saybrook and back. They have been having various drills, but now they will get the real thing in the shape of hiking under a1- ] most the same conditions as in actual warfare. They expect to be gone from camp four days and three nights. About 90 tents will be taken on the cutters, which will be lowed to the camping g place for the night. The cadets will march.
 In the five companies of cadets there are representatives of every state in the union. Except for few of the younger ones, who are still suffering
 from the bangs of homesickness, the life The discipline Is anything but strict, as the superintendent Major
 Willis J. Physioc, a veteran of the Boer war, does not believe in strict disci-
 plfne for growing boys. The large guard house next to the guard tent, however. is seldom empty. for "boys will be boys" Punishment for minor offenses is meted out in the form of demerits. These are worked off by doing the menial labor about camp, such as taking care of the grounds. Grave offenses are tried by courtmar- tial and usually r,suIt in dismissal
 The cadets are divided into five com panies, lettered consecutively from A to E.. The camp is situated in a large field on the westerly side of the reser- vatfon. Each company and the band have separate street on which to
 pitch their tents. Along the main street of the camp the tents of the of ficers are located. On the left of the entrance is situated the three acre parade ground. On the road near the entrance is the guard tent. In one corner of the parade ground is a sec tion of wall 12 feet high which is used for wall scaling. At the southerly end of the parade ground Is a 30-foot flag pole. Surmounting the hill is the mess hall, which is a frame building 90 by 100 feet. A large Colonial farmhouse is capable of housing 50 boys who in the Judgment of the camp surgeon should be quartered indoors. The mess hall is used for the Saturday night dances. Four three-inch field guns are included in the equipment.
 The navy is the pattern followed rather than the army, even though Camp Dewey is located on shore for the object of the Junior Naval reserve is to train men for the merchant ma for the seaman's life, for citizenship. The company commanders are mem bers of the staff with the rank of lieutenants. The second in command. who. would be known in the army as first lieutenant, is designated with the seagoing title of lieutenant junior grade. In like manner the third in command is known as ensign rather than second lieutenant. The battalion officers and the company commanders are members of the staff of instructors but the other company officers are se- iected from the cadets. There are

the amount of 1,5OO, which to-

New SiIos In Snohomish.

County Agricultural Agent c. F..
Monroe. Of Snohomish county, reports
to the State College that in the past
year twenty-five silos with an aggre-
gate silage capacity of 1000 tons have
been built in his county. He states
that in the experience of Snohomish
county dairymen, 40 pounds of silage
replaces 20 pounds of hay, and pro-
duces flow of milk which ia superior
to the hay. With hay figured at $50
. ton and silage at 81 a ton, he es-
Inmates that the new silos will save
SnohOmish county dairymen about
$4,000 year.
He states further that the recent
introduction of alfalfa production in
the county is already saving the coun-
ty over $4,000 year on freight and
baling charges paid on hay formerly
shipped in from the Yakima valley
and other points

in the summer, the summertime price
of butterfat would be less fluctuating
and this is why the entry OF cheese
making in Washington, at this time,
will tend to stabilize the whole dairy
industry.
washington is now making suffi-
cient butter to meet the needs of its
population-a thing which has come
about fairly recently. In fact, the
state now is producing butter for ex-
port. Butterfat is now selling for
from 81 cents to 80 cents q pound,
which is somewhat less than former
prices, Notwithstanding the fact that
feed of most kinds used by dairymen
has lately advanced rapidly in price.
I'm the matter of cheese, however,
the state is far from self-supporting.
II the state we're making its own
cheese, instead Of shipping 1t in from
the eastern states, not only would
We have q state market for al sur.
plus milk now produced, but . market
for an immensely greater quantity Of
milk than now is produced in the
state. The states natural advantages
for cheese-making are 90 marked that
1t should produce, and, no doubt, In
time will produce large quantities OF
high grade cheese"

State Must Inspect
All Hay and Grain

(From the State Capitol Record.)
1t is the duty OF the state hay and
grain inspector to inspect and weigh
all grain and hay received at ter
minal warehouses and to collect the
fee fixed by the public service COM
mission for such service, according
to formal opinion given the COM
mission by Assistant Attorney Gen.
eral Hance H. Cleland.
The question arose in connection
with the inspection Of grain belong
ing to the Sperry Flour Company Of
Tacoma. In addition to buying
grain from country points, which un-
der the law must be inspected and
weighed by the state department, the
company also brings grain to its ter
minal warehouse at Tacoma from its
own elevator at Creston. 1t contend
ed it should not have to pay fees for
inspection of this grain, inasmuch as
the grain is simply transferred. Ac-
cording to the opinion, the state
grain inspector has no alternative
but to inspect all grain shipped into
terminal warehouses.

STOPS BUYING MUNITIONS.
Great Britain Notifies American
Plans to Complete Contracts

Munitions makers in this country
have been notified by the British
government that all contracts for the
manufacture Of shrapnel and other
shells must be completed by March
81, and that on that date all con-
tracts in existence for these war ma
terials will lapse.
The English government, during
the last year, has brought its produc-
ton of munitions to point where
it is no longer necessary to import
them. That the move would be
made by the British has been known
in this country for the last six
months, and the big plants have been
preparing to put their shell making
machinery to other uses.
