A Week on the Saranac.
Monday we will rise at five and XII vi
down the deck,
Scrub and wash gratings, just to please
our exec.
Rig in our starboard boom, and coil down
all our lines,
Break out our mining tackle, for to-mor-
row we load mines.
Tuesday we snap out at FIVE, and eat our
scanty chow,
Get ready for a load of pills; I think
they're coming now
Two hundred in an hour, is about our
average speed
And death to all the Uboats, is the min
ing squadron's creed.
Wednesday we must coal, you know, for
our boilers must have steam.
OF all the dirty, rotten jobs, it's the
meanest of the mean,
When the last bags in the bunkers, and
your back is nearly broke,
You wish you were an army man; he is
lucky bloke.
Thursday we will stand by--for official
sailing dope,
Hammoeks are found erummy, and the
crew breaks out the soap
Scrub and wash your canvas, wear your
fingers TO the bone.
And wonder why you left that place you
used to call home.
Friday is a field day, just to keep our
good ship clean,
Wash her down from stem to stern, and
make her bright work CLEAN.
Holystone the fOc's'le just for exercise
you see,
And after-sand and canvas, clamp her
down with the squilges.
Saturday get ready for inspection; all
hands be prompt at nine.
Have your fat hat brushed precisely,
your shoes must all be shined.
Have your uniform quite ship-shape, for
everybody knows,
That the kind of sailor that you are is
shown up by your clothes.
Sunday we will shove off-for the mine
fields far away,
Somewhere in the old North sea, where
the Z boats sometimes stray,
Wen drop the whole six hundred odd,
then paddle back for shore,
And about the same time next week,
well go out and plant some more.

TALK

The stomach and bowels are one continuous
piece of human machinery-the largest in the
body--and do the most work.
And if you keep your stomach and bowels in
fit condition, the chances are that nature will
rid you of most forms of sickness.
Take advice-look well after the stomach
and bowels.

half ENOUGH COWS ARE
PLEDGED FOR MILK TEST
Bigger Profits From Dairy Herds
Sought by Members Of New Cow
Testing Association.

Organization of the Thurston
County Cow Testing Association is
proceeding as a result of the labors
of c. H. Bergstrom, county agricul
tural agent for the United States gov.
ernment. With w. s. Murdock, a
special agent of the department OF
agriculture, Mr.. Bergstrom spent last
week visiting farmers in various
parts of the county and securing their
membership. Many are still to be
seen. however.
Six hundred cows will be neces-
sary to get the organization started,
as the fee of two dollars per COW per
year is to pay the salary of the test
err Three hundred cows have been
enlisted already, and it is hoped that
enough more to begin operations will
be pledged soon.
Many farmers are keeping cows
whose milk does not pay for the feed
they eat and the work required to
care for them. according to Mr..
Bergstrom. The farmer can tell
whether the herd as whole is profit
able, provided he keeps accounts Of
feed and milk sales. but he often
does not know which animals are
highly profitable and which are "eat-
ing their heads Off" The work Of
the cow testing association will be to
eliminate these poor producers.

CELEBRATE YELM
IRRIGATION PLAN
FOURTH ANNUAL PICNIC COM.
MEMORATES SUCCESS OF THE
DITCH SYSTEM.

Celebrating the success of the
Yelm Prairie irrigation project, citi-
zens of that cnterprising town staged
their fourth annual ditch picnic
at Goldsmith's park, Yelm, Thursday.
Delegations from Olympia and all
parts of the county, Tacoma. Centra-
liza and other points in Western
Washington, attended the celebra-
tion. The marvellous development of
Yelm prairie excited general surprise
and approval.
The visitors assembled at the park
at 10 a. m. From half past 10 to
noon they joined in an excursion over
the prairie. From noon to 1880 p.
m. picnic dinner and social time
was enjoyed.
In the afternoon at 1880 there was
a program of public speaking by
prominent men of state and local rep
utation.
Free lunch was provided for visi-
tors and attractive prizes were
awarded for the besct display of farm
products.
The Yelm prairie irrigation pro-
ject is one of the revelations of west
ern Washington in the matter of sue
cessful farming on gravel prairie
and the great development that has
been carried out in that section the
past two or three years has proved a
surprise even to the men who pro-
noted the proposition to make two
blades of grass grow where none
grew before.

CITY VALUATION
LESS THIS YEAR
ASSESSMENT DROPS 1921 900
MUNICIPAL BUDGET TO BE
HIGHER.

The total assessed valuation for
the city of Olympia is $9,2S6,661,
County Auditor George CASTOR an.
nounced this week. Last year the
valuation totaled $3,45O,455.
This difference" pointed out AS
SCISSOR CASTOR, 'is due to the fact that
we lost 100000 on the Sloan Ship
yards corporation and $4,000 on the
Ward shipyGrds. This was because
the government took over the ship
building"
Ealf of this loss, however, was off
set by increases in other assessments,
so that the total this year is only
$271.2O6 less than last year.
City Clerk Hiram Dohm started to
make up the tentative city budget
this week for next year, The esti-
mates for the expenses to run the
city for the coming year have been
handed to Mr.. Dohm by the heads of
the various departments and he is
compiling this information for the
city council.
The council will consider the de-
mands of the officials and fix the per-
manent budget. Practically all the
Offices ask larger appropriation this
year by $4,000 to several thousand
dollars in some of the offices.
One Of the greatest needs of Olym-
pia is an automobile for the police
department, officials think. 1t is
now without any means of transpor-
tation and Chief of Police Harry Gu
