EASTERN STAR BALL
WAS SOCIAL SUCCESS

One of the most delightful
functions of the season was a
dancing party given at the Bay
View Pavilion last Saturday eve
ming, March IL by the Order of
the Eastern Star. Just few
minutes after nine o'clock Mr..
aud Mrs. 7. Hansen led the grand
march which started the even
ings program. Almost one hun
bred couples comprised the party
most of whom tipped the light
fantastic, making the hours speed
only too rapidly.
Mr.. Wesley's orchestra, Mason
ic brothers from Seattle, deserves
great deal of praise-the music
was great! The floor was very
efficiently managed by Martin
Tjomsland. In the balcony card
tables We're arranged for those
who did not dance, The prizes
won at the card games were a
warded to Mr.. Frank Bibbins,
gentleman's first prize, and Mrs.
Fred Weiss was the winning lady
Many expressed their apprecia-
ton of a pleasant evening and
also hope that the intermission
would not be too long before
similar good time.

ture, it is nevertheless true that
the reliable ready-mixed CONNER
cial mash is preferable for many
reasons.
More thorough mixing of course
insures uniform of feelings, one
batch the same as the last. THIS
is IMPORTANT. Especially
with the mashes containing but
termilk.
At the present time the modern
poultryman should place some
value on the amount of time he
must spend in properly mixing
mashes. 1t has been proven that
the standard mash turned out by
the larger mills are in the long
run more economical to feed than
the homemade" mixtures as it
stands to reason that the mill
with giant mixer can turn out
a hundred or even thousand
ton batch at a lower cost per ton
than feeder mixing a few hun
dred pounds at a time.
"All very WE'LL" says the hen,
but you mention a "Reliable"
Commercial mash-now comes the
delicate point.
During the last year or two the
market and supply of grains, etc,
have been very unsettled, aud be-
cause of the abnormal demands
and fluctuations, it has been diff
ficult for mills to turn out uni
form mixtures at profit in the
face of the many competitors, and
take into consideration the well
being, health, strong and weak
points of hens stomach.
This is a problem confronting
the feeders, there are no doubt
many who aer dissatisfied with
their present method of feeding,
Mr.. Harry Hook, managing and
feeding the large flock at Nc
Leans Poultry Form at Portage,
has had considerable difficulty in
obtaining satisfactory ready
made mash. The Buttermiik
Washes commonly advertised pro-
we'd to have sour and musty
odor, which of course was not
taken up very readily by the hen.
However at present he is feeding
lilly's Buttermilk Mash, and be-
Iieves he has struck the happy
medium. This brand of mash is
generally accepted as one of the
Ieading feeds.
To the one mixing his own mash
t would probably be well to con
slider tn eabove reasons for buy
ng a ready-mixed mash, especial
y when one gets right down to
figuring every item including the
line consumed in mixing thoro-
lghly. (Adv)

SO. HEIGHTS

Born to Mr., and Mrs. Norton

Thelma Brookin has been absent
from school several days on ac-
count Of illness.
The Bittinger home has been
improved within the past week
by having two rooms newly paper
ed. Mr.. Roscow of Magnolia
Beach did the work, and he hopes
to have plenty Of work on the
island without going to either of
the cities.
Last week Mr.. and Mrs. For
est took off another good hatch
from their two 500 egg incuba.
tors. These are busy times for
our progressive chicken raisers.
Mr.. Krogh''s 1000 day old chicks
have done fine, and the Kroghs
are very much pleased with their
oil Matching system.
Mr.. Stoltenberg has just fin
ished setting out three acres of
logan berries and currants. Of
course the land was plowed with
the tractor. Mr.. Berry has 1000
logan berry plants to set out.
Our people are busy improving
their places even if the weather
is not of the best. But the
spring flowers and birds are
beautiful, and promises fine wea,
Their again just after the 18th,
we hope.
Mr.. Russell has recently com
pleted a wire fence in front Of
his place and is making many
improvements. He is surely max
ing his place very attractive.
Mr.. Flowers has just finished
setting out somewhat extensive
cherry orchard on land that has
been partly cleared this winter.
This is another place that is be-
ing improved very much and is
a good place, too.
What pity that we people of
South Heights did not 60 to
Olympia while the legislature
was in session. We surely would
have been able to have had an
appropriation for our much need
ed gravel road, and the or 10
thousand dollars needed for our
road would not have been not
iced when it was so easy to ap-
propriate $57, 100000. King coun-
ty cannot afford to let us have
that amount for the new paved
(?) road on the north end
of the island has taken all
available money. | wonder who
put the loco" weed in the
"moonshine" at Olympia2 Not
the "Apple Jue" company we
are sure. We will need better
roads more than ever now for
our burden of taxes will be so
heavy that even walking will
make gullies in the roads. Oh,
you economical legislature!

WASHINGTON President
William Howard Taft was nominated
recently by President Harding to be
chief justice of the United States and
his nomination was confirmed by the.
senate in executive session.
He will succeed the late Edward
Douglass White, whom he (Taft) ap-
pointed to the office in 1910.

without opposition, however, and a
roll call was demanded.
The opposition was understood to.
have been voiced by Senators Borah,
Idaho; Johnson. California, and La
Toilette, Wisconsin, all republicans,
who were said to have criticised Mr..
Taft's record and his nomination.
First Time in Y. s. History.
Mr.. Taft is the first man in the
nations history to be chosen for the
highest office in both the executive
and judicial branches OF the govern
ment. For more than 80 years prior
to his retirement from the presidency
in 1913, he had been almost constantly
in public service.

JUNE FARM BANK LOANS
Equal Sum in Transit Awaiting Final
Execution.

Execution.
SPOKANE.-Since May /, when an
noundement was made that the federal
land banks could resume the business
of writing loans secured by farm mort
cages, the Spokane bank has re
ceived 1861 new applications for
$6,360,0O0. d. G. O'Shea, president,
states, however, that a large per-
centage has been cancelled. New loans
closed in June aggregate better than
$1,OOO,O0O and an equal amount is in
transit, awaiting execution and COM
pletion.
The total mortgage loans closed by
the hank since it's inception amount
to $47,233,485. These bear interest at
the rate of 5, 5h and 6 per cent per
annum, the rate depending on that pre-
vailing when the loan was closed.
Fifth Dividend Paid.
The Spokane land bank paid in
June its fifth dividend based on 6 per
cent on the full capital of the bor-
rover stockholders. Every narrower
must be stakeholder to the extent
Of per cent Of his loan. The bond
holder gets his interest regularly,
nearly 100000 having been disburs-
ed In May. All other earnings above
actual operating expenses 60 to the
borrowers in dividends.
The bank has ~ appraisers in the
field and the volume of business is
fast approaching its highest point. A
new national farm loan association
has been chartered at Pullman and
another at Pomeroy. Mr.. O'Shea re-
ports that others are being organized
at Dayton, La Crosse and Thornton.

RARITAN, N. 1.-THE resolution of
congress declaring war with Germany
and Austria-Hungary at an end was
signed here July 2 by President Hard
ing. at the home of Senator Joseph S.
Frelinghuysen, where he was spending
the weekend.
So that there might be no unneces-
sary delay in contamination of the
long-deferred state of peace the reso-
luton was brought here by special
messenger from Washington, d. c.,
where 1t had been given congressional
approval Immediately. The messenger
left for the capitay to complete the
formalities OF the declaration by de-
posting the document in the archives
Of the state department.
To Issue Proclamation.
The next step, 1t was pointed out,
would be the issuing of the formal
peace proclamation, which could be ex-
pected within a few days. The proc
iamation, 1t was explained, would be
by President Harding and signed in
addition by Secretary Hughes.
A treaty Of peace will then be me-
gotiated, it was said, but the ad-
ministration is understood not to
have developed as yet the steps by
which it will undertake such negoti-
ations. The signing of the resolution,
1t was added, opens the way for re-
sumption of diplomatic relations be-
tween the United States and the
former enemy powers, although it has
been indicated that the manner in
which this will be approached has not
been determined.
The issuing of the peace proclama-
ton as Of today, 1t was pointed out
would operate to terminate wartime
laws which have not previously been
repealed by congressional action
Among the more important are the
trading with the enemy act and the
Liberty bond act.

the Frenchman said.
After sojourn of two or three days
here, finishing up business matters
and answering hundreds of letters and
kilograms of congratulation, Dempsey
will leave for his home at Salt Lake
City for long rest. The last two
years have been busy for the cham
pion, and Jack intends to have good
vacation.
How the Money Goes.
NEW YORK.-Tex Richard figured
that his net profit from the Dempsey
Carpenter fight would be about $780,
900.
The expenses of all taxes on his
share 100000, while the gross gate
receipts were expected to exceed ST.
$1,000.
Dempsey earned in the neighbor-
hood Of $4,000 a minute for his TO-
minutes and Is seconds of actual fight
ing. Carpenters profits as the loser
in the contest were approximately
$19,500 per minute.
The United States government will
receive in one form Of taxation or
another considerable portion of the
$4,000 paid Dempsey and the $780,
900 which was Carpenters share of
the purse. Total government proceeds
from the bout will total more than
100000 revenue, officials estimate.
The income tax viii take about
$4,000 Of the 100000 earned by
Dempsey and about $4,000 Of Carpen-
tiers share. The federal revenue from
the sale Of tickets will amount to
about 100000.

WHEAT AND FLOUR.
SOME RATES IN BIG CHANGES
Just Little Below Payne-Aldrich Mea-
sure-Tariff on Lead ~ to "a ....
Cents = Pound-To Be
Considered This Week.

WASHlNGTON.AThe administra
ton permanent tariff bill has been in
troduced in the house Of representa-.
tives and is made public.
No explanatory statements accom-
panied the introduction Of the meas.
ure, as has been customary, and no
official estimate was made Of the rev.
enue 1t is expected to return.
Unofficial estimates by members of
the ways and means committee, how
ever, placed the expected return at
Payne-Aldrich law in the normal pre-
high as $70O,OO0,0O0 year. The
war years produce da little more than
$300,000,000 a year.
Examination of the bill shows that
in some cases the rates proposed are
higher than corresponding rates of
the Payne Aldrich law, while others
are lower.
The bill provides for a duty of 25
cents bushel on wheat and 80 cents
hundred pounds on flour. Both are
free under the Underwood bill.
The lumber schedule as originally
drawn, was cut by the committee,
which finally needed the appeal Of
republicans to have finished lumber
kept on the free list Shingles. how
ever. were taxed in the lumber SEIZED
ule, but many other items were not.
New Bill Introduced.
The average rate of duty in the ad-
mfnistratiOn's permanent tariff bill
will range between Is and 20 per cent,
according to unofficial estimates as
compared with 1856 in the Payne-Al-
drich bill. The Underwood average
was per cent and the Dingley aver
age 26k per cent.
When we are able to work out
accurate figures it will be found that
the new bill will run slightly below
the Payne-Aldrich measure" Mr. Ford
ney said. "On manufactured wool our
rate is, less than schedule X"
The measure will be considered by
the full committee this week. Demo
cratic members of the committee al
ready are at work on a minority re-
port.
Tariff on Lead.
The new measure fixes a tariff of
IL cents per pound on the lead con
tent of all lead-bearing ores, and 2A
cents per pound on lead bullion, pigs,
scrap, babbitt metal and dross, figured
in the lead content.

Sees Our Industries Stimulated Under
Provisions.
WASHINGTON Fordney
Of the house ways and means com
mittee in his first formal statement
on the permanent tariff bill said he
did not herald 1t as a panacea for
all national difficulties. but predicted
that its effect upon American industry
and labor would be entirely benefici-
al"
Discussing the lumber schedule, he
said:
Bargaining Provided For.
Lumber is on the free list. The
clause authorizing the president to
negotiate with countries imposing a
duty ON American finished lumber to
secure the removal Of such duties can
hardly be misunderstood. Its pur-
pose Is very evident and Its phrase.
ology has been made unmistakable.
ut has been the effort Of the COM
mittee to aid American trade by in
Guiding bargaining provisions in the
bill in several alternative ways and l
believe these provisions will meet with
general approval"
Under existing rates Mr.. Fordney
said many products, especially from
Japan and Germany. were coming
upon the American market at far less
than the American cost of production,
with displacement of American labor
as the inevitable result.
