GOOD ADVICE BY HORTICUL
TURAL SPECIALISTS

While the proceedings at the
convention of the Northwest
Horticultural Association held in
Port Angeles February IL, 1921
are fresh in mind it may be Of
interest to our friends to know
some of the doings and conclu-
sions. We had the privilege of
shaking hands with Gov. Hart and
his party which went out from
Port Angeles to inspect the de-
struction wrought by the hurricane
The whole story cannot yet be
told. The devastation is simply
awful. From the concensus of
opinions papers read and speech
es made at the convention the fol
lowing conclusions may be set
down as safely reliable;
l. All the upland shot clay soil
of the Puget Sound is especially
adapted to the growing of bush
fruits, cherries and pears. Gil
matte conditions, proximity to
makets and the population of the
big cities supplying the pickers
all contribute to place the fruit
growing industry Of this section
way above that of any other sec
ton of our union.
?, We are just beginning to
wake up and to see by rubbing
our eyes little, the possibilities
of the future. The results obtain
ed by a few who had faith and
sense astound us. Your CORES
Ipondent in a speech mentioned
that our neighbor Peter McCor-
mick received from the gooscber-
Iries and currantS of about a
acre area $500 for currantS and
$500 for gooseberries. At this
statement Mr.. Streblow of Sum.
Iner rose and read from his mem.
joranda the actual figures of Der
iries and currants delivered at the
IPuyallup cannery and which
showed that Mr.. Mcconnell; re-
ceived for them 100000 Similar
reports come from growers OF
logan berries, black berries, cher
ries and bartletts and raspberrics.
The figures were so astoundingly
large that We in our amazemeat
forgot to put them down, but we
noticed that the reports came not
from enthusiasts and book thcor-
lists but actual growers whose liy-
ing depended on the proper grow
ing of these fruits and from diff
ferent parts of this country and
from uplands and valleys and all
kinds of soil Too bad not more

INCOME TAX FACTS

Salaries paid to State EN-
ployees, including also employees
of a town, county, or hamlet, are
exempt from taxation. Thousands
Of persons engaged in business
for themselves or as employees
in private business receive such
additional compensation. A store
keeper may be elected mayor Of
his town. The amount paid for
such services should be entered
on his income tax return, but ii
is not taxable.
State employees, however, must
consider carefully their income
from all other sources. If, ex-
Guiding the amounts paid them
by the state, it equals or exceeds
$1,000 or 81, 900, according to their
marital status, a return of income
must be filed and the tax paid on
net income in excess of those
amounts.
The return must be sworn Ia
before a notary or other person
authorized to administer an oath.
The tax may be paid in full al
the time of filing the return or in
four equal installments, due on
or before March Is limo X Son.

Freely Conceded.

81 freely concede," remarks some
one, ANY good points he may have"
Thus virtuous, he proceeds with the
burden of his story, which is the ex.
tremely bad points of the person dis
cussed What does his "conceding"
amount to? Nothing at all except a
ruse to deceive himself, TO make him
self believe he is playing fair. If you
are going to concede some good point,
you ought in all fairness to name them
over. Perhaps at the end of the cata-
log, you will be a little more modest
about the enormity of the offense you
are mainly interested in.-Milwaukee

The MartYred Abbess.

terrible incident was the origin
of the ghost which haunts st. Osyth's
priory, u miles southeast of Colches-
ter, England. In the year 653 band
of Danes ravaged the neighboring coun-
try. Attacking the nunnery they led
its young abbess into wood and or
dered her to worship their gods. She
refused, and in spite of their efforts
to terrify her into submission, the
brave woman remained faithful to her
creed. In fury the leader of the
band ordered her to lay her head down
to be cut off. Obeying, her head
was Immediately severed from her
body. On one night every year the
abbess revisits the scene of her mar
tyrdom, carrying her head in her
hands.

a Costly Coat.

In his book on helmets and body
armor In modern warfare, Dr. Bash
ford Dean says: "a shirt of mail in
the collection of the Metropolitan
Museum of Art contains quarter Of
million handmade and tempered
rings, each carefully formed and each
separately riveted. If you estimate
that a skillful armorcr might make
and weave together two hundred and
fifty Of these links a day, YOU can see
that this mail would have cost its
maker, working every day, almost
three years work--a low estimate for
making this particular mail. II you
allow the maker six dollars day for a
thousand days, such shirt would
therefore have cost It's purchaser In
round figures at modern prices, six
thousand dollars

FARMING In Alaska.

In the Tanana valley, the chief
farming district Of Alaska, the aver
age annual rainfall is only about u
inches, which would ordinarily make
dry-fnrming methods appropriate, but
the first few crops raised after a
tract has been cleared In this region
get plenty of moisture from the melt
ing Of subterranean ice. In the course
of few years, however, the ice re-
ccdes to depth of six or seven or
more feet, and no longer supplies
moisture to the crops. 1t is then
necessary to use machinery which will
not only pack the soil few inches
below the surface and thus hinder
evaporation, but also maintain a sur
face mulch of loose soil, which fur

Charles c. Pmckney was one OF
three ENJOYS sent by the United
States TO France In 1907 TO settle dis
nutes which had arisen between France
and the United States, The American
grievance was caused by the seizure
of American vessels by France, The
French grievance was that commercial
privileges had been granted so Eng
land. Tallcyrand, the French foreign
minister, refused to receive the en-.
voys, hut It had been conveyed to
them by secret agents that before any
settlement could be reached II would
be necessary for the United States TO
pay large sum Of money, which was,
IN fact little more than brlbe. It
was then that Pmckney made his
famous declaration, that the United
States had millions for defense, but
not one cent for tribute"

Acre of Musk Melons Worth $500

Spencer-Date Hall, of Peterson
in Clay county, paid an income tax
in 1920 and he only farmed six
acres. Not only was he successful in
his truck gardening, but he utilized
land that was being wasted, for he
rented the six acres from railroad
which had been using it for a right
of way. In 1921, he probably will
have to pay another tax as he has
another bumper crop.
Several years ago Hall leased the
land along the Northwestern. rail-
road and started in hauling manure
from the stockyards nearby. He
worked the patch up to high state
Of cultivation.
This summer he has an acre of
musk melons which he is sure will
net him over $500.

Its Not So

Too many people think they have

doctor or institution to get well,
looking for something extra ordin-
airy; in some cases that might be so,
but ninety per cent of all ills could
be and is being corrected and the
patient gets we'll right at home and
at one tenth the expense through
Chiropractic adjustments.
We have just returned from the
homecoming at Davenport and it
was the biggest thing in the way of
a convention held in Iowa this year J
too few people will believe in Chiro-
practic or know of the strides it has
made in the past five years, it is
becoming a universally used method,
no knife to mutilate your body nor
poisinous drugs, when adjustments
are given the nerve impulse is re-
leased and organs function and
health results. You have heard of
people being cured and read about
this work and it is being accomplish
ed right in your own town. Get it
