The Importance of the tick-eradica-
ton work being done by the United
States Department of Agriculture is
indicated bv letter from an East
st. Louis stockyard firm to county
agent in Arkansas regarding ship
ment Of $4,000 pounds of cattle from
one of the infested areas. These cat
tie, while in prime condition. were
placed in the quarantine pen because
of the locality from which they orig
mated. The difference in location
caused reduction estimated at So
cents per hundredweight, or $3.50 on

practically the same grade as those
from an adjoining county which has
been freed from. tick diseases through
the work of the department and
which sold for higher price.

News and Comment
From Over the State
BY Charles Sughroe
Q vsaern Newspaper Un,on

Preliminary steps for the forma-
ton of an irrigation district in the
Spokane valley to comprise approx
mately $500 acres and to cost for it's
installation between $2,5O0,000 and
Spokane valley landowners recently
The most important result of the
Benewah county, Idaho, farm bureau
activities in 1920 was the poisoning
of 81, $50 acres of land, resulting in
killing 80 per cent of the squirrels
and the saving of $36,700 worth of
crops. This was accomplished by
team work between the farmers, the
farm bureau, the county commission
ers, the Indian service and the Unit
ed States biological survey.
Producers of eastern Washington
have been called in convention at the
assembly rooms of the Spokane
chamber of commerce on December
20 to discuss pending and proposed
legislation, state and national. The
session will be under the auspices Of
the state federation Of farm organi-
cations. Producers are described as
tf the opinion that they have not
heretofore been invited to discuss
these topics thoroughly although they
effect their vocation vitality. Every
producer is invited to attend and par
ticipate in the meeting.
The state has been called on to
participate in the nationwide cam
paign to supply food to save millions
of starving children in Europe, the
L cvement being fathered by Herbert
Hoover, former food administrator.
The Spokane district, comprising the
eight counties of eastern Washing
ton, is being organized as a unit of the
state campaign to put out special
appeal December 10 to rs for funds.
The campaign in the Spokane dis
trict, which includes the counties of
Asotin, Adams, Ferry, Lincoln. Pend
Oreille, Stevens, Whitman and Spo-
kane, will be conducted under the di-
rection of Charles Hebberd, M. J.
Luby and Samuel r. Stern, who rep
resented this district at a meeting
held at Tacoma when the statewide
campaign organization was formed.
There are 142,1 retail merchants
in the state of Washington. These
retail firms handling everything
from needles to threshing machines,
represent the present distributive
system of merchandising in the
state. They are called upon to sup
ply the needs of 1,356,075 people in
Washington. A complete survey has
recently been concluded by the bureau
of research and statistics of the
Washington State Retailers associa-
ton which established the above num-
Der of retail businesses in operation
December 1. Seattle heads the list,
Tacoma is second and Spokane third.
The association has membership of
more than 1000. At every oppor-
tunity it points out to the public the
value of the present distributing sys-
TEN of merchandising; what it means
to its comfort and convenience and
the grave danger of attempting to
establish some untried theory for
what is now the elimination Of the
best known methods of merchandis-
ing developed through centuries Of
worldwide barter and trade.

- UGANDA MARTYRS HONORED
AS WE'RE ANCIENT CHRISTIAN
HEROES OF THE ARENA.

1t is not generally known that The
Catholic Church confcrs the highcs:
Eonors she beStows on anyone also
,rpon members of the colorcd race,
clcvating those who have cNcellcd
by sanity life or the death of mar
tyrdom to the ranks of the "Blcssed'
and Of the SAINTS. An event
involving the identification of ma
tivcs of Africa transpircd on May
18th and 18th in ST. Peters church
in Rome. when % of them were hon
orcd in manner similar to that
in which the heroes OF the Arena III
the early Christian days were glori
fled.
Under the observance Of Il most
solemn ritual Pope Benedict Nv. On
those days proclaimed to the assem-
Elcd congregation and to the world
that the % martyrs Of Uganda had
been raised to the ranks Of the bless
ed. These young men were pages to
King Muanga. Because Of their firm
refusal to deny Christ and to do HON
age to the fctishos of their pagan
brethren, Is Of their number were
. Lurncd to death and suffered mas
tvrdom in variouS\ ways. The event
trnnspircd in 1856.
The SGlcmn ceremonies which
marked the Identification Of these
African youths in recognition OF
their Christian for;itudc were pre-
faced by Il most careful invcstiga--
tion into all the circumstances con
nCctcd with their martyrLom. The
Catholic Church is exceedingly eau
tious in the processes Of beatifica
ttcn and canonization, which lead
up to the solemn and official dcSigna
ton of the subjects rs Blessed or
as Saints. The Uganda martyrs
were honored simultaneously with
Joan of Arc, The Maid of Orleans
whose vcncration the world over rs
the valiant defender Of Franco in
centuries past is as much Il matter
OF history as were her courageous
actions and ignominious death un-
der circumstances proving her Saint
mood. 1T is also Il noteworthy fact
that number of French nuns were
bcatiicd on the same occasion hay
ing did rs martyrs during the Great
French Revolution.
"BeatificatiOn" in tho Catholic
Church is the act by which the Popo
q Rome decrecs tho title of Bless.
cd to one already known as Il Veneer
able servant Of God. 1t gives leave
III specified places Of public liturgi.
cal honorS TO he given to those who
have been declared Blessed. it is a
preparation for canonZation; and
lmDnCS that the servant of God has
led lie OF heroic Sanctity, that ut
ms mterceSSlun miracles have been
~ wrought after his death, and that
he enjoys the reward Of heaven.
In the Papal consistory held on
March Sth at Rome, Pope Benedict
dWclt at length on the glorious ex
ample OF moral courage given by the
~ Uganda martyrs, whose Christian
fr1titude he said, was worthy OF
emulation by all mankind.

eritain's Oldest Possessions.

The Channel islands (Jersey, Guern sey, Alderney and Sark are the chiefl are the oldest possessions of Great Britain. They were formerly an ap- panage of the duchy of Normandy and were united to the English crown aft CT the Norman conquest of England by William of Normandy, in 1066. The inhabitants of the Channel islands pre- ferred to remain subjects of King John nt the period of the conquest of Nor mandy by Philip Augustus, 11S0- 1923, To King John 1t has been usual to ascribe a document at one time re- verted to by the Channel island people as their Magma Charta; but modern critics have cast very grave doubts on It's authenticity. Almost every war with France included a descent on the Channel islands, but all to no avail. The people, about 96,0O0 Tn number. adhere to their old customs, and with in wsll-defined limits make their own laws. They are not bound by acts of the imperial parliament unless special ly named in them.

MEN "WALKED WITH DEATH"
Sailors on Mine-Sweeping Trawlers In Constant Peril of Sudden and
 Awful Disaster.

Imagine yourself trying to walk through dense wood at midnight without a light. the penalty for touch. ing a tree being death. That will; give you some idea of the dangers that the men on mine-sweeping trawlers faced when their vessels were steam ing through a freshly sown mine field.
 The minesweepers were divided into groups, each of which was commanded by naval officer. The vessels left harbor about daylight and steamed ou: to sweep for mines.
 They worked in pairs abreast of each others. Between the vessels swung the sweep wire. sunk to the necessary depth in the water by means of lowed kites--wooden arrangements acting on the same principle as ordi- nary air kites.
 These wires can be regulated to travel to any depth beneath the sur face. When mines are caught they are dragged to one side and destroyed by rife fire. If the bullets hit the uCtoAotoA lhC iuiuC 6ChCAo any SAPaoaSo at once; but, if, on the other hand, water enters the buoyancy chamber and floods 1t, the mine goes to the bottom like a stone and becomes in- nOcuOus.
 As the trawlers themselves may draw as much as F feet of water. they may come into contact with a mine laid at or above that depth. If mine sweeper Is struck and the re- sultant explosion occurs forward in the bows, 1t may keep afloat and even. tually be lowed into harbor by one of her consOrts. If the detonation took place amidships or in the stern, how ever. 1t was unlikely that the ship would survive, and the men in the en- zine room or boiler room would prob- ably perish with the vessel.
