INCREASE IN SMALLPOX

Smallpox is increasing in Washing
ton. and the state board of health is
sending out a warning against the
disease urging vaccination as its only
known preventative.
Cases of smallpox, reported from
various sections of the state for the
first six months of this year, number
POPS. The entire number of cases in
1915 was 247. In 1916 cases number
ing 655 were reported, 40S cases in
1917 and 1875 cases in 1918.
Vaccination is the only known
means of preventing smallpox" says
DR.. ]. B. Anderson, state health
commissioner. 1t is the rope thrown
to rescue the drowing man and if that
man refuses or neglects to seize the
opportunity he has only himself to
blame.
"At this time of year most cases of
the disease are mild, but when winter
comes and people keep more indoors
it is very likely the cases will increase
in virulence and number"

NATIONAL FOREST RECEIPTS
SHOW INCREASE

The total receipts from the twenty
seven national forests of Oregon,
Washington and Alaska-comprising
the North Pacific District-for the
were 1854, ,603.38, according to state
ment just compiled by the district
fiscal agent, H. I. Loving, Portland.
This is an increase of nearly $121,-
600 over the receipts for the year 1918
and is the largest sum ever received
in the district from national forest
business. Of this amount, $424,-
071.5O was derived from the sale of
government timber; grazing fees
brought in nearly 100000; $19,6S4
came from special use permits; S2,S17
from fire trespass; and the remainder
from timber settlement, timber tres
pass and special uses in connection
with water power sites.
The Wallawa National Forest, in
Eastern Oregon, led the district with
S96, ATTIC; followed closely by the
Whitman, with $92, 2,4O6.S3, and the
Tongass, in Alaska, with $90,834.77.
With the exception of water power,
from which only a small per centage
of the annual receipts in the district
come, all classes of National Forest
business show substantial gains over
1918.
Twenty-Five per cent of the re-
ceipts from national forest business
goes to the road and school funds of
the counties in which the forests are
located. Ten per cent additional
must be used in road and trail work
within the forests.
The total receipts from all the ma
tional forests of the country for 1919
was $4,358,414.86, which is $685.
484.79 more than the receipts for 1918.

BLEWETT PASS IS CLOSED
Highway Contractor Must Stop Auto
Travel TO Coast for Two Weeks
or More

Contractor Otto Hanson, who is re-
building the Blewett Pass portion of
the Sunset highway, announces that
the road was closed Thursday, July
31st. Mr.. Hanson is building eight
miles of entirely new road from In
gals creek to the summit. 1t is pos
sible that the road may be open by
August Is. When finished the new
road will be about twice as wide as
the old, one with a more uniform grade
| and few curves.
In addition it will be free from all
dangeH of slides and will be open
from two to three weeks earlier each
spring than the old road.
The following letter has been re-
ceived by the county commissioners
from Superintendent r. Power, rep
resenting Contractor Otto Hanson:
1--WE beg to advise that it will be
necessary to close the Blewett Pass
road from ingalls, Creek to Mountain
Home within the next two or three
days.
"Our steam shovel will be operat-
ing above the present road very soon,
and it will be impossible to keep the
| road clear for travel, as rocks will be
rolling down the hill while our shovel
| is digging, and it will be too danger
Gus for public travel We feel that
the temporary inconvenience which
may be caused by closing the road
now will be more than compensated
for by the fact that the travelling pub
lie will be protected from possible
injury and damage, and our operations
will be considerably expedited so that
the new road will be completed in
shorter time.
1--WE have a crew of men working
on the Kittitas county side of the
summit, and their operations will also
block the road for short time.
Gwen if we tried to keep the road
open we could not guarantee any
steady travel as our operations might
result at any time in unavoidably de-
laying autos for three or four hours
at time. We assure you that we will
open the road to travel at the very
earliest opportunity.

SYNDICATE BUYS YAKIMA Or
CHARDS

Yakima, Washington, July 25.-Or-
chards valued at 100000 comprising
approximately 1000 acres, have al
ready been purchased in the Yakima
Valley by w. B. Clore, acting for the
American Fruitgrowers, Inc, $125,-
100000 corporation recently formed.
Mr.. Clore, with party of four, in
Guiding R. B. Voolfolk, vice president
of the giant corporation, announced
that he had options on 1900 acres ad-
ditional and that most options are to
be closed in a comparatively short
time.
The recent trip thru the valley was
largely in the nature of final inspec-
ton of lands in which they have taken
options. The men, including H. F.
McHenry and J. B. Adams, all inter-
ested in the American Fruitgrowers,
predict that the crop returns this sea-
son will surprise the most optimistic
growers, and they anticipate that pri-
ces will increase rather than slump.
Mr.. Clore complains that growers are
so prosperous that they do not like to
sell their orchards, and many of them
refuse entirely to put price on their
lands.

CHAUTAUQUA WEEK OPENS =
TOMORROW AFTERNOON
Twenty-Five Entertainments for S2.75
If You Buy Your Ticket in Time

Leavenworth's Chautauqua will

.S2.75. After the entertainment be-
gins the price will be $3.50. In buy
ing single admission tickets the

tertainment you will want to take
them all in. Save money by buying
a season ticket before the entertain
ment begins and if you can only at
tend half the numbers you will still
save money.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR WASH
INGTON BREEDERS

A French commission has recently
arrived in this country with instruc-
tions to purchase dairy cattle for eX
portation to France. Some 5000 head
will be purchased the first month,
and the number will be increased if
the animals are satisfactory. Bot
cows and heifers will be included, and
two percent of the number purchased
will be bulls.
American breeders now have a
splendid opportunity to develop lu-
crative expectation business; whether
or not they succeed in this will de-
pend largely upon the quality repre-
sented by the animals in the first trial
shipment.
The State of Washington has dairy
herds that compare well with the best
herds in the country. There is no
reason why Washington breeders
should not benefit considerably by
the expectation demand.

WENATCHH APPLE CROP
ESTIMATED AT 9,4OO CARS
North Central Washington Will Pro-
....duce More Apples Than Any
Other State

Deputy Inspector of Horticulture +.
S. Darlington has completed his mid
season survey of the Wenatchee fruit
district and estimates 9400 car loads,
an increase of over 700 cars as COM
pared with his May report.
The increase is caused by the discov-
cry of a larger yield in the Omak, Pc
shastin, Dryden and Grant county
portions of the district, and frosted
districts have recovered from the ef-
fects of the cold weather to a greater
extent than was believed possible at
first.
Ideal growing conditions have pre-
vailed following the cold wave the
first of May. The result is that ap-
pies in the district generally have at
tanned larger size than usual.
A greatly improved condition also
obtains as to worms. Unless some
thing unexpected occurs between now
and picking time the worm loss in the
Wenatchee district this year should be
small.
Mr.. Darlingto makes the following
forecast of the shipments from each
of the important apple shipping
points of the district. The Wenatchee
station shipments include practically
all the East Wenatchee crop as well
as that of Wenatchee flat and neigh
boring sections:
Wenatchee, 5000 carloads; Malaga,
100; Monitor, $50; Cashmere 1900;
Dryden, 300; Peshastin, 250; Leaven-
worth, 35; Olds, $50; Wagnersburg'
100; Winesap, 40; Chelan and Chelan
Falls, 45O; Wells, 20; Peteros, 29O;
Brewster, $175; Malott, 100; Okano-
gan, 200; Omak, 800; Riverside and
North, 100; Ohio Colony, so; Moses
Coulee. $50; Grant county, 300. Total,
9,400.
The 1919 apple crop is divided as
follows as to varieties: Winesap,
2815 cars; Jonathan, 1875; Delicious,
1886; Stayman, $50; Spitzenberg, 700;
Rome Beauty, 100; Winter Banana
100; Black Ben, 130, and Arkansas
Black, 70 cars. All other varieties
are estimated at 820 cars.
Last years total apple crop amount
ed to 1870 cars. The present esti-
mates mean over 1000 cars over last
year. Estimating the 1919 crop OF
1000 900 boxes,it is worth at present
prices nearly $15,OO0,000.
According to the apple crop bulle-
tin Just issued by the United States
government, the Wenatchee district
alone will grow more apples than any
entire state in the union except Wash
ington. Reduced to barrels the dis
trict's 1919 apple crop will equal
100000 barrels, or more than New
York, Michigan Illinois, California
Oregon or any other state in the
union save Washington alone.

EIRES DRIVE OUT ANIMALS

The forest fires are driving ami
mails out of the woods to eat and
drink. Two Wenatchee men were
confronted this week by the spectacle
of a full grown cougar in the road
ahead of them when they were coming
from Entiat.
A bear cub was found at ingalls,
creek last Sunday, on Blewett Pass
road, by Harry Trunkey's dogs. The
cub was about half grown and took
to a tree. Turnkey called the dogs
off and the cub came down. Then
the dogs cornered him. He put up
a terrific battle. Turnkey finally
grabbed the cub by the hind feet and
the animal transferred its activities
to him. He then decided that the cub
was entitled to his freedom,

SEATTLE PLANS TO MEET FLEET

Seattle is planning on big time
early in September when the big Pa
cific Coast fleet arrives in her har-
Dor. The warships will be met at
the entrance of the harbor by humid
red or more local ships carrying Sc
attic residents who will voice welcome
to the arriving officers and men.
Bands will be stationed at various
places along the waterfront and prep
arations are under way to have the
city decorated with flags and bunt-
ing.
The shore program for the visiting
navy men while not yet wholly COM
pleted, will include a fireworks dis
play, street dancing, sports and
games and athletic contests for the
men from the various ships.
Thousands of visitors from all over
the northwest are expected in Sc
attle during this event.

APPLE BUSINESS DUE FOR BOOM

Mr.. J. B. Adams was here part of
two days the fore part of the week
and Tuesday afternoon left for We
natchee He is making a trip thru
the orchard districts in a new Pre-
mier car, the last and best thing in
autos, with an electric gear change.
Mr.. Adams says the outlook for a
bumper apple crop never was better.
The price, too, will be even better
than in 1918. The new fruit buying
company organized by the Northwes-
tern Fruit Exchange, the Growers
Service Co., of which Mr. Adams is
president and general manager, has
already contracted for about million
dollars worth of apples in this sec
ton and is every day making new
deals.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 20 is
DATE OF BOND ELECTION
Bonds To Run From Five To Twenty
Years, Interest Not Over 6
Must Register to Vote

Saturday September goth is the
date that has been fixed for the spe-
cial Chelan County Road Bond cleo
ton, by the County Commissioners.
All registered voters are entitled to
express their wishes as to the issuance
of these bonds, but in case any voter
did not cast BALLOT at the last state
or city election, it will be necessary
to register again in order to be elig-
ible to vote at the bond election.
The bonds will run for an extreme
period of 20 years, but it is probable
that the county will reserve the right
of paying off portion of them every
year, beginning with the fifth year
after their issuance.

HARRY MASTON MARRIES

Harry Maston surprised his many
friends here this week when he an
nounced that he had "Gone and done
it," His bride is Miss Mabel Amidon
formerly school teacher in Wenat-
chee but who for the past year has
been employed in the high school at
Tacoma. This is the elimination of
a romance that begun before Uncle
Sam threw his hat into the European
ring and called the American youth
to the colors. Harry was among
the first to offer his services and for
the past twenty months has been in
France. Shortly after his return to
Leavenworth about two weeks ago
he left for Idaho where it later de-
veloped that the future Mrs. NJ, was
on a visit to friends. The ceremony
took place while he was there in the
presence of few friends after which
they returned to Leavenworth. A
reception was given to the young
couple on Tuesday evening and the
following day they left by auto for
Tacoma where they will be for some
time with Mrs. Maston's mother.
Mr.. Maston says he expects to locate
in Idaho.

s2.OO PER YEAR
ALL CARS MUST BE ON AUTO
LIST

Notice has been sent to the Coun-
ty Auditor of Chelan county from the
office of Secretary of State l. NJ.
Howell, that except when the cars for
the year 1919 are shown on the auto
list submitted to the auditor from the
state office, it will be necessary for
the purchaser of the 1919 models to
have the car weighed on the city
scales, procure a weight slip and pre-
sent this at the auditors office when
applying for a license.
1t would be well for all auto deal
ers to ascertain of the county auditor
whether or not the models they han
die are listed for 1919 and if advised
they are not the dealer should see
that the purchaser of any of his 1919
models have the car weighed before

RAISING OF WILD GAME FOR
pURLIC SALE is PERMITTED

1t is now lawful in the state of
Washington under a law passed by
the recent legislature to raise or sale
and serve at public meals various
kinds of wild game. Raising of
wild birds or animals and the serving
of them at restaurants is under state
license, a fee of $40 for the first year
being charged and $5 annually there
after. Thus for the first time in
the state, the fastidious diner may
call for fried China pheasant or roast
duck or venison-provided persons
are found who see profit in raising
the wild game for such purposes.
