Williamson's Store Closed

N. Williamson's store is now thing
of history. The big store that was
Moscow's pride for many years, has
cased to exist. The few remnants
remaining unsold at retail, are being
packed and will be shipped out of
town, having been bought by mer-
chant in a neighboring town, who will
put them on sale in his store. Most
of the fixtures have been sold and are
being packed for shipment. The big
store, which closed several months
ago, is now devoid of practically all
fixtures except the shelving, elevator
and furnace. Mr.. Williamson is leav-
ing these in place in case another big
store should want to come here and
take the building. But the movable
fixtures have been sold Mykelbust
Brothers, of Troy, took a lot of them
and they were shipped to that town.
Others went to Pullman. The store
that sold more that million dollars

WITH AMERICAN FORCES IN
GERMANY Correspondence of the
Associated Press.)-An account of
Germany's new navy" is given in
Mittschiffs, German naval periodical
recent issue of which has reached
American headquarters, describes the
Iron torpedo boat and Haff flotillas
both of which have been organized
since the armistice
The iron flotilla" consists of twelve
torpedo boats, which have been en-
gagged in maintaining order on the
western coast of Germany, says the
paper Some of the vessels have been
used on several occasions for policing
the port of Hamburg, such as guard
ing Allied food shipments to the
Czecho-S -Slovaks and similar work,
during periods of disorder. The flo
tilla has its headquarters at Will
helmshaven. A landing corps of
about 800 men is distributed among
the twelve boats, each of which has
a platoon of thirty commanded by
naval lieutenant The clothing and
arms of members of this landing
corps are the same as in the infantry
The Haff flotilla is supposed to be
doing similar duty on the Baltic coast
near the Russian boundary, with
in Koenigsberg. The
flotilla has been handicapped recent
y by delay in obtaining equipment
20 put the vessels in commission. The i
boats are armed with machine guns
and in some cases with 3.7 centimeter
guns as well. The flotilla was or
sanized for operation in connection
With the East Prussian Freiwillige
,orps, and was, until few weeks,
lgo, subject TO the commander of the
lorthern army.
These two flotillas, excepting a few
7essels which are either out of com
mission or of little or no use, consti-
ute virtually all that is left in active
ervice of the German navy. n

More Rain Stops Harvest.

Rain Friday night and Saturday
morning at intervals, with the promise
of the weather bureau that there will
be more rain tonight and Sunday, has
stopped harvest work and it is fear
ed that it may be several days before
it can be resumed. No damage to grain
has been reported and if the weather
clears up within the next few days
none will result, while the good done
by the rain fall will be immense.
Farmers who stopped harvest work
have put their teams to hauling
grain and there was another rush of
grain to Moscow warehouses today.

SAVING LUMBER IN
STRICKEN FRANCE
SALVAGE OF LUMBER IN DE-
STROYED TOWNS AND CITIES
TO BE LARGELY USED

CHICAGO, Ill.-A little wood goes
long way in French house, writes
the American lumberman representa-
tive from France, and the large
amount of wood that will be salvaged
from the devastated cities will prob
ably result in a smaller demand for
American building lumber for recon
struction than was at first expected.
Although cities and towns are In
ruins in the war regions, they are
not pulverized and in most Of them
there is enough building material fit
for salvage to rebuild fair percent
age of the houses. The steel is nearly
always so badly twisted as to need re-
melting but there is a great amount
of lumber in the form of floor and roof
beams, door planks, etc., that is still
in excellent shape. Some which has
been partly splintered may be re-
sawed.
There is also, according to the
same authority, a large amount of
trench lumber; in fact, in the allied
other military works "billions of feet
of lumber and timbers that will be
used again." Practically every per-
