LYNDEN FARMERS IN
JAIL FOR DIPPING FISH
Telgenhoffs Taken To Prison in Bel
lingham For Using Hand-Net in
River

Walter Telgenhoff and son Mar
tin, are now serving out their SEN
tences in the Whatcom County Jail
at Bellingham for the terrible offense
of attempting to dip a salmon out
of the Nooksack River. The two
will be incarcerated until Saturday
night.
They were taken to Belling"" Tn
Wednesday by Deputy Game W q zen
Jones.
The Telgenhoffs were arrested
over a month ago, and were fined
$12 each. This they refused to pay,
and they were given thirty days by
the judge to think the matter over
For over a decade, dipping was
permitted without question in the
waters of the Nooksack, and it was
only this fall, that the county game
commission assumed a righteous air
and decided to enforce a law prohib
iting the practice, which they them
selves admit is manifestly unfair.
While canneries and purse seiners
are permitted to take the fish by the
hundreds of thousands for CONNER
cial purposes. this law prohibits a
citizen from taking a single fish from
the river for his own use.

The highest water that Lynden
tom in years swept down Sunday,
and spread over the low1and country

partment.
Son, slight damage was done to
farm-Ands along the river-bottom by
the breaking of dikes and the cutting
in of the river. bikes broke on the
Wander Griend, Frasier, Dyksterhuis
and Bridgeview farms, and the water
covered the gravel road near the
Guide Meridian bridge.

Thomas B.

Plant ImpaIes Insects.

There is in Cuba Il curious grass
cenchrus echinatus, which bristles
with tiny sharp-pointed spikelets upon
which multitudes of insects are i'm
paled by night as well as by day.
The wings of the victims are pierced
and entangled by the barbed spines,
so that the most of them are unable
to get away, and thus perish miser-
ably.
Even large, luminous Swapping
beetle, which is so strong and active
that it can with difficulty be held in
the hands, falls victim to these
vegetable bayonets. 1t has been OBJ
served, however, that two species OF
insects, large bug, oebalus, and an
earwig. readily free themselves from
the spines. Minute insects are not
caught. The grass does not appear to
derive any nourishment from its prey.
1t is found elsewhere in the West
Indies and in southern Florida.

CONSTRUCTION OF GOOD ROAD
Careful Design and Best Of Workman
ship Required, Especially for
the Foundation.

Every element of modern road re-
quires careful design and the best Of
workmanship. The foundation es-
pecially must be deep and substantial,
and for this it would seem that the
usual layer of crushed stone Is entirely
inadequate and unsuited. Underdrain-
ing is also very important, but usually
is laid out on theory rather than Il con-
sideration of actual conditions that
vitality important, for it should be alb
sOlutely smooth, as any initial ir-
regularity forms starting point for
disintegration under the trip hammer
blows of heavy truck wheel.

verse soils still remains in good condi-
ton.
The bureau found the four-inch slab
(the commission itself has
abandoned 1t in favor Of tive-inch
Teinfaced concrete design and ad-
.vises that experimental sections be
made on the unfavOrable soils. 1t
also finds that the three-eighths-inch
carpet coat, famous in California, does
not give service commensurate with
its cost.
Of interest in all parts Of the coun-
try is the bureaus finding that there
is nothing presented by the entire
California study which indicates that
concrete is not successful pavement.
Simple, satisfactory methods for class
flying the conditions of concrete
roads have been developed from this
study which will be found invaluable
in classifying roads in other states.

Queer Plant Grows in Africa.

The welswitschia, which grows in
southwest Africa, is one of the queer
est plants in the world. The body of
the plant resembles an enormous rad
ish, and is sometimes II to 10 feet in
circumference. From this grows two
long leaves, which trail on the ground
and ere usually split into numerous
ribbons. These are the only leaves
produced, and they last through the
lifetime Of the plant, which is said to
reach more than one hundred years.
The colonial authorities maintain a
small park for the preservation Of
this rare and remarkable plant.

MAS highway system. The federal
bureau reports that only 12.5 per cent

practically all four inches thick. The
use Of this thin slab, which came in
for so much condemnation i'm the first
report, made it possible to give a large
part Of the state good highway serv-
ice at a reasonable cost. The design
was determined nearly ten years be-
fore the heavy traffic came, SO that,
measured by results, the California
commissions work appears to have
been success. Seventy per cent Of
the defective pavement occurs on clay
and adobe soils, but large mileage OF
