Henry J. Plumb, county agent,
states that the matter Of forming
a squirrel pest district comprising
the whole of Stevens county has been
laid on the table by the board OF
county commissioners to await set
tlement of the case now pending in
Spokane county. This springs
squirrel poisoning operation will,
therefore, have to be conducted along
the following lines. Each farmer
will have to furnish his own poison
and the county agent can only offer
his good offices in getting the poison
through the government in sufficient
quantities to meet the demand and
at as reasonable price as possible.
The demand this spring is destined
to be heavier than ever before wit
messed in the county. 1t is almost
unanimously agreed that the govern

RESPONSIBILITY OF SOCIETY
TAUGHT BY INFLUENZA
lBy the Occasional Visitor)

We are in the throes of another
epidemic, and the community has
risen to meet the emergency. Last
year some of us were hysterical, and
some of us did not know enough to
be afraid; we had never had such an
experience before. But this time
we are reacting differently. Most of
us are trying to keep calm and above
all, to obey orders. There are, to be
sure, some few incurably social folk
who cannot keep away from their
fellows even to conserve life and
health. You may find some such,
| am told, in Colville. However,
these are in the minority. The
great majority are quietly conform
ing.
| scoln TO be that most disagree
able of persons, an incurable optimist.
| do not believe in talking too much
about the silver lining, especially to
those who are just getting over the
flu. But yet | do think that the
American people are learning from
this visitation lesson in cooperation
and social responsibility that they
have long sorely needed. They are
beginning to recognize the right and
the duty of the community to take
action as a community in order to
protect it's members from disease
Perhaps they may sometime come to
realize the necessity for common
action in the matter of tubercul
and the social diseases. A reform
er once said, "Ypu can do nothing.

County Agricultural Agent Henry
J. Plumb has issued to the farmers
of the county a circular calling their
attention to nine dates for meetings
in the county of potato growers dur
ing February. The purpose Of this
series of meetings is to acquaint the
people in good season with market
conditions, both present and future,
and to place before them a definite
objective for the raising of the 1920
crop. This year, it is said, there is
scarcity of approved marketable
varieties for seed; and especially this
is true of the irrigated districts
which produce most of the CONNER
cial potatoes. Tubers produced on
irrigated lands, it is claimed, can
not be successfully reproduced from
replanting and it is therefore neces-
sary that the highlands of Stevens
county prepare for the emergency
which confronts the arid sections
each year. Yakima, Wenatchee and

Potato Growers Meet at CO|viIIe

Okanogan irrigated areas have been
shipping seed potatoes for several
years from Wisconsin and Minnesota
at great costs, when hill farmers Of
northeastern Washington, Of which
Stevens county is the largest, and
the best adapted, should prepare for
the business. 1t has been pointed
out by the large potato growers in
central Washington, that they are
each year being held up for eXorbi-
tant prices for seed potatoes and it
is suggested by them that the plant
ing in the seed growing areas be
done on a sufficiently large scale that
a fair price may result with pros
pect of a reasonable price for the
product. The meeting of the pota
to growers will be held in Colville
on Saturday, Feb. %, with E. Grubb
as chairman. The purpose Of the
Colville meeting will be to form
county association, and representa-
tives will be present from the nine
other districts.

No Squirrel District This Year

made this year over last. The
poison will be mixed stronger. In
stead of mixing one ounce to ten
quarts of oats as last year it will be
mixed one to eight. This will be
strong enough and insure good re-
suits all the way through. The
county agent will furnish the poison
ed oats at 23 cents per quart if you
furnish the oats and 27 cents per
quart if the agent furnishes the oats.
Only clean plump oats will be ac-
cepted to mix with poison. The
county agent will furnish some
strychnine unmixed to competent
parties. For strychnine unmixed
make special application to the coun-
ty agent. Mixing meetings will be
held as last year, and it is planned
to notify every one ahead of time
so that the reception for "Mr. Dig
ger" will be all organized when he
comes out in the spring.

Influenza RageSOver the County

to note the number of people who
deliberately jeopardize their future,
and bring trouble to their families
and friends, by failing to follow the
few simple rules which have been
found requisite Go to bed, call "a
doctor or trained nurse, and stay in
bed.
Those who wish to escape the
disease can best do so by keeping
away from flu patients, and keep
ing the body clean. TO keep clean
tells the whole story of health. Pills
and drugs are not a necessary equip
ment for a clean body. Soap, water
plain diet, scrubbing brushes, and
some simple nasal or throat spray,
are about the extent of the necessary
preventive articles. A bath twice
a week is said to be good for chill
dren-and it should not prove too
severe strain upon the health of
grown people. Clean clothes and
out-of-doors walks or exercise are
not injurious to healthy people.
But when the flu germs get a grasp
on the system, attention to their dis
persal is needed-and needed imme-
diately. A creaking motor or a squeak
ing gear in a valuable piece Of ma
chinery is Immediately tended to
because the machine costs money.
A little oil, lessening of the strain,
or the adjustment of screw, will set
the machine again to work without
friction But the human bodies
there are lots of them, and when
they go wrong they are automatically
expected to right themselves. Some
times they do, but the trouble is that
sometimes the undertaken or the
hospital is obliged to work over
time to care for the results of mat
tention to the human machine which
comes as a gift and is not always
appreciated in its beautiful com
plexity and intricate mechanism.

After a fifteen-days rage, it is be
lieved that the influenza has reached
its crest in Stevens county. The
suddenness of the attacks has swamp
ed the physicians, nurses and Red
Cross workers, and in some cases it
has been a physical impossibility for
doctors to attend to all their calls,
not only in the country but even in
the towns. A goodly number of the
schools of the county have been clos
ed as the epidemic reached their
localities, and it may be several
weeks before the ban can safely be
lifted.
Volunteer relief work has been in
charge of Mrs. Geo. w. Peddycord as
head of the Red Cross, Mrs. Louis
G. Keller representing the Good Eel
lows, Supt. G. L. Putnam in charge
of the Colville public school teachers,
and Miss Rowe, Red Cross nurse who
had been giving the health courses
in the schools.
Most cases have been sudden but
not serious. During the past week
the flu patients who disregarded the
rules of flu illness have had relaps~
es, and this has filled the hospitals.
Those who calmly stayed in bed for
several days after their fever had
left, are convalescent Pneumonia
seems to be the immediate result
of exertion during and Immediately
after illness, and it can not be pre-
dicted whether the long train Of ply
sical arrangements will continue dur
ing the months following, as was the
case last winter Certain it is that
the flu is something which must not
be lightly considered, for its record
to date shows an almost uneXception
al record Of bringing disaster unless
the patient remains quiet. Inas-
much as physical health is a main
requisite of happiness, it is marvellous

TO ESTABLISH
LUMBER PLANT
OLD CENTRAL MILL PLANT TO
BE REBUILT FOR MANU-
FEATURING ..o
Colville Valley Lumber Co. to Be a
Permanent Addition to Business
Life of COlvile

The Colville Valley Lumber Co. has
been organized with a paid capital of
$4,000 for the purpose of equipping
and conducting a lumber finishing
and manufacturing plant here that
will prove an asset perhaps of more
Importance to the city at this time
than any enterprise that could be es-
tablished here. The officers of the
company are: President, George M.
Barline, Spokane; vice president, !.
F. Bode; treasurer, J. c. Barline;
secretary, Jerome C. Barline. 1t is
understood that all the officers
live in Colville except the president
and will become personally interested
with the business interests of the
city.
The old Central Mill & Lumber
company plant Immediately north of
the Great Northern depot, with the
grounds, railway tracks and build
ings, has been purchased for the use
of the new organization, and tn
power plant and machinery equip
ment will be installed in the build
ings which housed the factory end
of the old enterprise. A new dry
kiln will also be installed and ample
sheds will be built during the season
for storage of lumber stock.
The Colville Valley Lumber COM
pany will be in the hands of well
known and experienced lumber men
who have had many years of activity
in the Inland Empire timber bust
ness. They will not only manufac
ture stocks of lumber for the trade,
but they will perform the service of
clearing house for the many mills
in the Colville river watershed. The
lumber business will be developed by
this enterprise in all of it's many
phases and its purpose will be to
help the small mills along with their
business which has suffered in the
field of competition with big con-
Germs.
The present year will be occupied
in placing the work of the plant on
a firm foundation. In the meantime
extensive improvements will be made
and new facilities will be added in
the plan for manufacturing doors,
windows, interior house finishings
and the like. Such an auxiliary
feature will be box factory of such
magnitude as will care for the needs
of fruit producers.
Work on the new plant has already
commenced and lumber contracted to
be furnished by the adjacent mills is
now being delivered on the yards in
Colville. The new plant will be in
operation in May and will primarily
employ working force of about 3j
men. Incidentally, however, more than
300 men will find employment in the
woods, at the mill and in the trans
port of lumber to the mills in Col
vile.

that the child, during the night, had

having first removed a false, OF
wooden, pane from the window. Fol-
lowing a dim trace across the crusted
snow for some distance out to field
the body of the child was discovered.
Death has evidently ensued from
freezing as the little fellow was bare
footed and clad only in his night
clothes. The parents who were
sleeping soundly in an adjoining
room did not hear the child leave the
house. The temperature during the
early morning, when it is thought
the boy went to his doom, was 20
degrees below the freezing point.

Facts, Fun and Fiction Interest
Last Night Dreal1ls
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF THE DEAD?

~ REAMS of the dead are exceed
~ ingly common and are generally
very vivid; which is ascribed by Ellis
to the fact that in such dreams two
opposing groups of memories contend
In one of which our relatives or
friends are alive and in the other
dead; and the effort of the dream con-
seriousness to adjust these two groups
causes an intensity in the dream emo
ton experienced. The conflict of these
opposing forces is the reason that fire.
quently in our dreams of the dead we
are at first perpleXed to find our dear
ones with us and say to ourselves:
"But he Tor she) is dead" But the
"Stream of images which represents
them as alive comes from an Older
and richer source, is the more power
full" so that it 0vercOmes the other
and the dream consciousness seeks to
adjust the difference by some such
thought as that the person dreamed OF
is not really dead but was only report
ed to have died. Sometimes the older
emotional stream is so much the
stronger that we do not experience
this perpleXity. In all cases where
we see our dead in dreams as aliv"
our dream consciousness accepts it as
a fact that they are alive.
To the mystics to dream that we Sc"
the dead alive is accounted a very ia
vOrable omen, especially if they speak
to us. If they look reproachfully at
u.s. or demand of us an accounting of
some of our acts it is a sign that we
had better hasten to correct our lives
and take greater heed to our behavior.
In this connection the words of Doctor
Radcliffe, the eminent English investi-
gator are interesting. He says: "You
are more or less at liberty to believe
that the dead and living may exist to-
gether in a world of spirit in which,
the sO-called living are less living than
the sO-Called dead; and that, in fact,
the dead may command, as they do in
dreams" For q long time material
istic writer's, Herbert Spencer among
the number, have attributed the belize
of primitive man and savages in a
spirit world to dreams of the dead.
Before 1895 no attempt was made at
scientific analysis of dreams of this
type but they are now attracting much
attention.
