THROWS ROCK AT OVERSEER
BECAUSE OF ROAD GRADING

l.. d. Cameron, who lives on the
Misunderstanding road across the
river from Marcus, was tried We'd
nesday afternoon before Justice
King on a charge of assault in the
second degree, following trouble
arising between him and U. G. Mey-
ers, road overseer. 1t is said that
Cameron, who is a man of about as
years of age, objected to the grad
ing of the public highway, claiming
it to be his property, although it
had been travelled for about thirty
years.
Mr.. Meyers, as road overseer, re-
fused to order the men operating
the grader to raise the grader plow
and Cameron picked up rock which
he threw at Meyers. The first one
missed him, but the second one hit
Meyers in the arm, brusing it quite
badly. Cameron plead guilty in
the justice court and Prosecuting
Attorney Noble waived the second
degree charge and allowed him to
plead guilty to the third degree.
His fine, including costs, amounted
to about SIS.

ENCOURAGING FARMERS
IN ADOPTION OF SILOS

The Bank of Colville, through it's
president G. w. Peddycord, believes
in the betterment of livestock and
the ranches. This they feel can be
achieved by the adoption Of the silo
and silage feed. To further this
Mr.. Peddycord is encouraging the
farmers in the raising Of corn and
to install silos.
A shipment of corn, which is to
be given to farmers Of the county,
has arrived and Mr.. Peddycord
states that it is ready for delivery.
Following is his description of sill
age in a few words:
Silage is the best and cheapest
succulent feedA
Silage increases the production
value of your land.
Silage preserves all the feeding
value of the corn crop.
Silage is fed in concentrated form,
easy to handle.
Silage is absolute insurance
against droughts and scarcity of
feed.
Silage makes a better quality of
beef, the kind that tops the mar
ket.
Silage makes the corn harvest
easy, leaves the land clear
SiIage has a beneficial effect on
the digestive organs Of cattle.
Silage is fine, sweet and sue
culent with a high food value.

OFFICER WRITES FAMILY
OF FRANK STARR'S DEATH

How Frank J. Starr, former Col
vile boy, was killed October 81,
1918, near Roman, France, by a
high explosive shell, is told in let
ters written his sister Charlotte L..
Starr, by Lieut.. John Corn, COM
mander of the medical detachment
of which Frank was member.
These letters are of interest to Col
vile people, revealing as they do
the love which Franks comrades at
the front had for the big, CHEEKY
lad who was known as a student
here. One of November 20, is as
follows:
Somewhere in France, Nov. 30,
1918. Dear Madam-It is with sor-
row that / inform you that your

price any soldier can offer his coun-
try. 1t is not my intention to give
the family the first news of the pas
sing of brave soul to his Maker,
but simply a few lines of appre-
citation which l hope you will in
turn pass on to his worthy mother
II would have written you long
since that Frank died at his post
doing his duty for which he trained
so faithfully, on Oct. 81, at about
p. M, but until recently was un-
able to get an address of any of his
folks. Now that a mutual friend
has supplied that deficiency, it is
pleasure to say that Frank was a
capable, brave, always willing SOL
dier of the medical department., one
who because of his bright, CHEEKY
ways and his frequent snatches of
song is woefully missed by his re-
naming comrades, but his memory
shall be kept sacred.
"He was instantly killed by high
explosive shell on October 81, at
about 4 p. m., while waiting coolly
and cheerfully on the injured at
Roman, France, where his body
now fills a soldiers grave.
Believe me madam when l say
that l was Franks well wisher.
Yours respectfully, 1t. John Corn,
M. C. U. S. A., Com. Med. Detach."
Another letter written by Lieut..
Corn to the Starr family spoke of
premonition which Frank had in re-
gard to his fate, saying that he felt
that he was not to go home with
his friends.
"Your second inquiry dated Nov.
20 at hand but | am sorry to write
you bad news. Your brother paid
the soldiers price on Oct. 81, about
a p. M, while we were at Romaine,
France.
while the boy had premoni-
tion that he would not go home with
his friends, he did his work as
cheerfully and as we'll as did any
one. Frank was good boy, al
ways full of life and jokes, except
when he received his mail, then he
would come and talk it over with
me telling me his plans and aspira-
tions for the future.
eve lost quite number of men
while in this position from sickness
and enemy fire, but none of them
hurt me worse to see go than my
big boy. He is resting on a beauti-
full hillside close by the road with
Is or 80 other good American
boys, awaiting the last reveille from
the Great Commander where we
parted from him."
Frank J. Starr was % years old,
native son of Washington, being
born, as were the six broth
ers and sisters of his family, near
Spokane. His father and mother,
Mr.. and Mrs. r. F.. Starr, and all
the brothers and sisters are still
living. Frank enlisted in Spokane
and was a member of the 146th
field artillery in which there are a
number Of Colville boys. He was
later transferred to the medical
corps.
4 Robert Durland, son of Postmaster
C. M. Durland, wrote his father
some time ago about the death of
Frank Starr and said that he was
only about two kilometers from him
at the time. He wrote that Frank
was up in pup tent with SER
geant major named Brown, when a
high explosive shell hit the tent
squarely, killing both men.
