DIR. Haya's Nightly Vigils.

! The system adopted by DR.. Hava
and MS associates was almost militia
ry in its workings. Arriving from the
city on the evening train, DR.. Hava
brought each day a large quantity OF
soup meat each day. A mammoth
kettle of stimulating and nutritious
broth was made and by means OF
the Roberts and Bourgeois motor cars
it was distributed throughout the
district to the helpless patients. Many
families were prostrated. Mayor
Thomas J. Bourgeois had eleven down
in his home at one time. Joseph l..
Bourgeois had every member OF his
family. including himself, in bed for
two weeks. The same was true OF
others. The sick depended upon vol
unteer service and the few not SICK
responded nobly. !,
Starting on his rounds early IN the
evening it was often A. NJ. when Or.
Hava reached his home. considering
the large number of sick, the mortall-
ty was regarded very low, it being es-
timated at around z per cent.
Edwin Bourgeois, 36, one OF the
most prominent members OF the
large family by that name, was one
of the early victims. Scarcely had
he been buried when his little three
year-old son, Edwin, Jr., was stricken
and died.
Still a third member of this same
family fell a victim, Miss Corinne
Bourgeois, sister of Edwin, died.
And a death that brought sorrow to
a wide circle of the summer colony
was that of Miss Eleonora Bourgeois,
stepdaughter of John Bordages, city
marshal and tax-collector of wave
land, wno died victim of influenza IN
n New Orleans hospital Stricken at
home she was hurried to the city IN
the hopo that closer scrutlnltv might
save her life, but in vain.
The family of Frank Bourgeois was
another that suffered, his five-year old
daughter being taken by death; A
three-vear daughter, Myrtle, OF
Harry Bourgeois, also died from the
diesase. The baby son of Ernest
Bourgeois, Ernest, Jr., age three
months. was the seventh victim in the
Sears avenue neighborhood.

FARMERS EXCHANGE
FOR WHITMAN COUNTY

f. l.. Kennard the recently APP
pointed agricultural agent for Whit
man county, has established his
headquarters in room 5, over the
First Savings and Trust bank, in Col
fax, and is ready to advise and help
the farmers in any way possible.
In an article sent out to all the
Whitman county newspapers, Mr..
Kennard says, 'Why not farm ers
exchange in Whitman county? In
quiries are coming into this office
for seed and live stock of various
kinds and as time passes these calls
will no doubt become more numer-
Gus and more urgent. One of the
finest ways in which to get the pro
Queer and the man who needs the
product together is by means of an
exchange where products that are
wanted and products that are for
sale shall be listed and this list
placed in the hands of the parties in
terested. The idea of the govern
ment in the establishment of the Of
flee of county agricultural agent is
to render all possible service to the
rancher. An exchange bureau of the
kind mentioned above we have no
doubt would be of great value to the
farmers. If you have a surplus that
you wish to dispose of, or if YOU are
in need Of something and this office
can be of any possible assistance to
you, do not hesitate to telephone in. 4"

on him.
Congress is content to call this bill
