ON THE WRONG END.

A prosperous farmer has gained
the reputation of being the stingiest
man in his town and consequently is
not a general favorite with his neigh
bors.
He owns an old horse which, to put
it mildly, is very thin. As if to make
up for lack Of flesh on its body, how
ever, the animal has a head many
sizes too large. The other week he
went to the expense of a new collar
for the animal. A few weeks after
the delivery he was back at the sad
dler's with the collar.
Don't you know nothin'?" ne
blurted out. "You've made it too
small. I can't get it over his head
cover his head?" replied the sad
der. "Man alive, it wasn't made to
go over his head. Back him into it!'

INCREASE HOME EFFICIENCY.

Increased home efficiency is one of
the popular projects in the counties
in which home demonstration agents
are maintained by the United States
Department of Agriculture and the
agricultural colleges. Last year 166
colleges in the North and West car
ried on countrywide campaigns for
increased efficiency, and LOTT farm
families in the same territory were
assisted during that time in rea--
ranging farmhouse or kitchen as an
important first step in efficient
housekeeping.
In the Is Southern States last year
1,163 new houses were built accord
ing to plans advised by the home
demonstration agents, 2,736 remodel
ed and 26,S11 labor-saving devices

STATE LAW HELD INVALID.
Court Rules on Naturaized Vote Act
and Egg Grading.

OLYMPIA.-Two decisions declar-
ing invalid and unconstitutional the
state law requiring citizens of the
United States who are citizens by
reason of naturalization to display
naturalization papers before being
permitted to register for voting and
also the 1915 statute providing for
classifying and labelling of eggs, have
issued from the Thurston county SUI
perior court.
As the former law, passed by the
1919 legislature, raised much unfa-
vorable comment, particularly m
Spokane, it is possible that the first
test case, fought out in Thurston
county, will prepare the way for fur
Their mandamus proceedings in other
courts of the state.

miles in some places.
The communique announces that In
the region Of Novogrodek, about seven
ty five miles east of Grodno, the Poles
are withdrawing westward. with but
little fighting. East of Baranovitchi,
along the river Shara, where the Poles
are using the Russo German defensive
line, the Bolsheviki repeatedly launched
infantry attacks in an endeavor to break
the resistance OF the Poles, but all the
attacks were repulsed.
On the front southwark along the
sorny railroad other Bolshevik forces
were thrown back after series Of west
ward pushes.
The Bolsheviki are assembling re
endorsements to follow up Budenny's
cavalry raids, which usually are made
by groups of from 500 to 600 men. II
