STEVENS COUNTY SECOND
IN NUMBER OF SQUIRRELS

Stevens county is second in the
tate in the number of squirrels, ac-
cording to L. X. Couch Of the [. S.
biological survey He bases this
statement upon the number Of ounces
of squirrel poison procured from the
government by each county. The
records show that during the past
wear Whitman county used $500
ounces, Stevens county 310o ounces.
and Spokane county 2400 ounces.
This data does not take into account
poison purchased from other
agencies.
Mr. Couch arrived Wednesday to
90 over the squirrel pest law with
County Agent Plumb with a view to
putting it IN operation.
According to the provisions Of the
statute, if left to the discretion
of the counties to create a pest dis
trict Of the whole county, or less.
The money fer this undertaking may
be raised in either of two ways;
first, an acreage tax or, second,
millage levy Spokane county at
tempted to put the law in operation
last year, levying the acreage tax
An injunction was issued preventing
this action, however, on the ground
that the land had not been classified
as the law requires in case of an
acreage tax. No attempt will be
made to levy an acreage tax in Stev-
ems county. If the law is put into
operation, a small millage tax will
be levied This entails no necessity
Of classifying the land, nor will it
be burdensome financially to any,
The law is in operation in Pend Ore

INSPECTOR COLLECTS DATA
ON MONEYS DUE COUNTY

On Friday, July 16, H. S. Tray
nor, federal inspector for the depart
ment of the interior, arrived in Col
Vile to pursue an investigation into
the county's claim to taxes upon In
dian allotments in that part Of the
north half of the Colville reserva-
ton which is in Stevens county.
Citizens of the county have been
urging the matter for about six
years, and at length Congressman
Webster secured the passage OF an
item in the annual Indian appropria-
ton bill which directed the secretary
of the interior to investigate and re-
port to Congress by the first Monday
in December, 1920, the amount, II
any, due the county on this account.
County officers are busy preparing
the necessary data, working in some
instances day and night. The
amount that will accrue to the coun-
ty if the claim is paid will approx
mate $4,000. The taxes will be
computed for twenty years past
