Washington State Repubs
 Adopt Strong PLdtforn,

CHEHALIS, Wash, June 12.--The State Republican Convention was opened in this city on Saturday. Lead CTS of the G. o. P. from all parts of Washington were present, and the local hotels are crowded with dele gates. The convention was called to order at 10 a. m, and after the invo- cation by local clergyman, the chair man introduced Ray Greenwood of Kitsap County, who delivered the key note address,
 The address was closely listened to and frequently applauded. The con- vention hall shook with enthusiastic approval when Greenwood declared that Progressivism and Americanism were the controlling factors in the national policy of the Republican Party. Following the lead of Senator Medill Mccormick who is endeavor- ing to revive the League of Nations loouC lol tho pul pooS Ol uSledtllS tlS Democrats in the fall elections, Green wood bitterly assailed the Wilson ad- ministration for it's efforts to force us into the league.
 The league issue was again referred to when the speaker was eulogizing Senator Miles Poindexter. He stated that Poindexter's fight against the league was the greatest achievement of his career. A letter from Senator Poindexter was read by the speaker in which the senator took a few falls out of the league agreement and the Yer sailles treaty.
 Continuing, Greenwood advocated the passage of a strong Anti-Narcotic Law, and praised Congressman Miller of this state whose name is attached
The Cordova daily times., 1922-06-12

to the present Narcotic bill now pend- ing in the Senate and which has passed the House. Greenwood placed the State organization definitely be- mand for the immediate passage by Congress of the Bonus bill.
 The national Republican admins tration was emphatically endorsed, stricter immigration laws recommend ed, and the State organization was placed solidly behind the demand for more federal aid for irrigable lands. The action of the county prosecuting attorneys in proceeding to enforce the State Anti-Alien Land law, in order to force the Japanese out of their pos session of rich agricultural lands, was approved.
 On the conclusion of Greenwood's speech the convention proceeded to get down to real business by electing Frank R. Jeffrey of Benton County, United States district attorney for Eastern Washington, as permanent chairman. The first action of the dele gates was to vote in favor of the re- peal of the State poll tax law. This was followed by the adoption of reso- lution upholding and approving the present primary election system.
 A motion endorsing the State Anti Alien Land law, offered from the floor, was passed almost unanimously. The platform as finally adopted con- tained a strong, unqualified endorse ment of both State and National ad- ministrations, but went on record as in favor of further economies in all gov ernment operations in order to reduce the tax burden.

Property Damage Runs Into
 Many Millions Of Dollars

NEW YORK, June 12.-The terrific storm which swept over New York at tained a wind velocity of eight-eight miles per hour. Detailssof the loss of life and property are still far from complete and every hour brings addi- tional facts which serve to make the calamity one of the worst in the his tory of this city. It is now believed that at least fifty persons were killed and at least a hundred injured. The down town section where the great skyscrapers are located suffered enormous property damage, running into the millions. Forty boats are re- ported to have been drowned in Long Sound. Falling trees, lightning, wind, and accidents of the storm killed others. So far but ten bodies have been recovered but numerous search ing parties are out in boats along the sound and the Hudson River. The wind storm came on top of a torrid day and swept across New Jersey, County and the western end of Long Island. Hundreds of thousands of peo- pie on the city beaches were thrown into a wild panic when the storm hit
 NEW YORK, June 12.-Thirty eight persons are reported to have drowned during a wild wind, rain and electri- cal storm which swept over this city today. The storm came as an abrupt termination to the heat wave which has been filling the hospitals with heat prostration cases. So far only eight of the bodies have been recov- cred. The fatalities were chiefly caused by the capsizing of small boats containing merrymakers seeking rec- reation at little amusement park in the Bronx The high wind crashed the Ferris Wheel to the ground killing five of it's passengers, and injured over forty others. The property loss all over the city is tremendous.

January Farm Notes,

Keep plenty Of fresh water before
the chickens. A frost-proof fountain
is a blessing. If this is not available,
fresh water should be supplied at
least three times daily,
The cost of keeping a COW depends
very largely upon her weight. But
her butterfat yield depends almost
entirely upon breeding. feeding and
care. There is text here for about
two pages and it is worth thinking
over often.
. In selecting stock for laying eggs
for Matching this spring bear in mind
that 1t is the rooster and not the hens
that reproduces the laying strain.
So select rooster from your heaviest
laying hen.
Despite the low corn prices, there
are many farmers disposing of all
they raised at good prices, while
! others are getting less than market
prices. 1t all depends upon the kind
; or stock that eats it. Pure bred stock
! insures the best returns.
This Is usually the month of Bit
| terest cold. If the chicken roosts are
removed and pile of hay put in
their place, it will furnish a roost-
ing place where the hens can keep
warmer. That means better con-
ditioned bodies. which in turn means
better results later.
| DON'T neglect to curry the horses
these days. It Is injurious to allow
them to 60 for days and weeks with
out attention. A good currying once
or twice a week will not only make
them look better, but they will feel
better and keep in better condition.
