DISMISS PELA TONIC CASE.

World: The case of the state ver-
sus Alva Greaves, J. H. Greaves and
Ina Greaves, druggists of Chelan,
charged with selling Intoxicating
liquor to Fred Null, laborer of Man
son, was dismissed Thursday morning
in the court of Justice of the Peace
John f. Porter, in session at the City
Hall here. Deputy Prosecuting At
tcrney Frank Lebeck will file new
complaints charging unlawful posses
sion of liquor.
Many witnesses were brought IN
from Chelan. The state put Albert
jacobson, city chemist of Seattle, on
the stand to testify as to the contents
of Pela tonic, the liquid alleged to
have been sold. His testimony was
not admitted in evidence, on the
ground that he had not analyzed the
particular bottle of tonic specified in
the complaint.
Fred Null testified that he had
bought few bottles of Pela tonic
at the Greaves drug store, but stated
that he had never become intoxicated
from it.
The attorneys for the defense were

WATER SYSTEM o. X.

Since the restrictions on the use of
water from the city system went into
effect there has been very great
change in the pressure, but up to
Tuesday many people evidently had
not read the notice printed last week
and were still using water all day, ac-
cording to our advices. Tuesday the
mayor had dodgers printed to be dis
tributed to every house.
1t is evident that provisions must
be made by another year for a larger
water supply. This can be done by
extending the 14-inch main down to
the Harding lane and continuing the
lO-lnch main in over the bridge south
west of town and connecting up with
the main in the city. We now have
plenty of water and good pressure
during the hours when the use is re-
stricted, but when everyone has his
garden and lawn taps turned on the
pressure soon dwindles so that were Il
fire to break out it would gain great
headway before the pressure would
rise high enough to throw much of q
stream; and this brings to mind that.
in case of a fire alarm, everyone must
Immediately shut off all taps so that
pressure may be gained for fighting
the fire.

cluslon, and we reached it by practic-
al experiment, that the man who clas-

timber ought to be nibbled to death
by young ducks or get six months
twice a year. 1t causes us to wish
for the repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment and the Volstead act so
we could recommend bull pine for
corkscrews. 1t corrupts our morals
and provokes profanity to look on a

one end and the other side up at the
other end We stepped on a stick of
2X4 and the bow in the middle hit us

Quoted by f. G. Schafer and X. o.
Westley, of the division of Farm
crops.
The authors say that sunfowers
promise to be of greatest value for
silage in areas which will not promise
corn satisfactorily on account of cold
weather or insufficient moisture. The
yields obtained at various state ex
pertinent stations and in different
counties in Washington show that il
is profitable crop particularly in
areas not well suited for corn.
approximately twice the yield of
ccrn was secured from sunflowers
grown for silage on the experimental
fields at Pullman.
Work of the divisions of animal
husbandry and dairy husbandry in
feeding tests with sunfower silago
is quoted in the new bulletin. In these
trials it is shown that while the drv
matter and digestible nutrients are
lower for sunfowers than for corn.

l. greater for sunfowers than for
corn. The silage has proved to be
satisfactory and can be substituted
for corn silaPe in rations for dairy
