Indians in Olympic Mountains OF
Washington Use 1t for Fuel.
Somewhere in the western part of
the Olympic mountains In Washington
there is a lake of pure petroleum At
several Indian camps near Olympia the
aborigines are using for fuel and light
cedar sticks which have been soaked
in oil.
That there is crude oil in the North
west mountains has been long suspect
ed, for two generations ago places
were found where oil dubbed up
through rock and shale formations.
An attempt is being made by local
prospectors to discover the pool where
the Indians make their Sire sticks"
that burn a long time.
The oil showing is in a region easy
Of access, and successful exploitation
would yield millions.

Interest in Dairy Stock

A meeting of farmers interested in
purchasing good dairy stock was held
at the Farmers store in Moscow on
Wednesday, March 1st. This was the
third meeting of this nature held
during the past six weeks. County
Agent Fletcher was elected tempo
rary chairman of the meeting and
asked to carry on correspondence for
the farmers. The meeting was ad-
dressed by Mr.. Gabby, dairy herds
man for the University of Idaho, and
Mr.. Fletcher.
Farmers present at the meeting
wanted total of more than one car
load of dairy cows, but it was the
concensus of opinion that if dairy cat
tie are to be shipped in from other
states the farmers should find out
how many cattle are wanted in the
county as a whole and then arrange
to send representatives to purchase
the cattle. The overhead expense per
animal will decrease as the number
of cattle purchased increases. The
meeting elected a committeeman in
each community to bring the pro-
posed purchase of dairy cattle to the
munity and get information in regard
to cattle wanted.
Committeeman listing dairy cattle
wanted in the territory tributary to
Kendrick are: Kendrick, &. A. Way
land; American Ridge, VIM. Cox; Lit
tie Bear Ridge, Marcus Anderson;
Big Bear Ridge, A. N. Rognstadt, and
Cedar Creek, Everett Whistler.
Those present at the meeting be-
l;eyed that Latah county farmers
would be apt to get the best grade of
dairy stock by purchasing good two
lear old heifers, bred to calf late in
the spring or during the summer.
Judging by the experience of farm
ers of southern Idaho who have
shipped in cattle during the past
winter, such animals should cost
$50 to sos laid down in Moscow, with
all overhead charges figured in. 1t
appears that farmers needing finan-
oial assistance to purchase cattle will
he able to borrow all necessary funds
from their local banks, SO no steps
have been taken to form any central
loan association.
There will be another meeting at
the Farmers store in Moscow on
Thursday, March 18th, at 1880 p. M
All desiring stock should attend that
meeting as definite arrangements for
the shipment of cattle will be COM
pleted at that meeting.

Big Melon Acreage

Juliaetta.-The unprecedented de-
mand of last year for Juliaetta water
melons has prompted the local grow
ers here to- put in the largest acreage
this year ever put in in a single sea-
son. Some idea may be had of the
volume of this industry when it is
stated that it will require more than
200 pounds Of seed to plant this
years crop here.
Water Cochran and Creighton Bid
Olson will put in together 25 acres
]. N. Steensma will Tut in Is acres
A E. Jones, 10 acres, constituting
the heaviest growers, but there will
be numerous growers ON a smaller
scale, which will no doubt swell the
total acreage to 100 acres.
Reckoning 20 tons to the acre and
100 acres-that would mean 4,OOO,-
900 pounds of watermelons from a
village of less than 500 population,
in single year.

Sent to Penitentiary

Philip Daugherty, who was bound
over to the district court by Justice

day, appeared in court yesterday
morning and entered plea of guilty
to a charge of perjury. He was SEN
fenced by Judge w. N. Scales to serve
from two to fourteen years in the
penitentiary. Daugherty swore to a
complaint charging his father with a
criminal offense on December IT,
1921. At the preliminary hearing he
testified that he had falsely charged
his father because he wanted to get
even with him over some misunder-
standing between the two. The father
was released and Prosecuting Attor-
ney Leo McCarty caused the arrest
of Philip on the perjury charge.
He viii probably be taken to the
penitentiary at Boise tomorrow to

Flu on the Increase

Reports indicate that the peak of
the disease has not beer reached
as yet, there being an increase in the
number of cases reported in the last
two days. The Department CT Public
Welfare has decided that the follow
ing rules will be in force:
l. No person showing evidence of
the beginning of the disease, such IS
by colds, sneezing, coughing, watery
eyes, etc, to be allowed in any public
gathering, such as schools, churches,
theatres, crowded stores or other
gatherings of people.
3. Persons in charge of such public
gatherings will be requested to ask
such persons to leave the place.
School teachers are requested to
send any child home that shows any
of the above symptoms and to notify
the school nurse, who will investigate
the case.
People are notified that there will
be no further placarding of homes
from which the disease is reported,
Parents are urged to keep their
child at home and in bed if it shows
signs of becoming i'll. 1t is much bet
ter to take the disease in time and
break it up than to allow the child
to run loose until the disease is we'll
developed, as this frequently results
in complications.
People are also urged to take bet
ter care of their health in general;
to see that their homes a.e properly
heated and ventilated and otherwise
to do everything possible to avoid
the lowering of their vitality. In the
average case, the course of the dis
ease seems to run for a period of two
and a half to three or four days.
Cases with a high temperature are
urged to take longer time in con-
valescing before assuming their
duties.
Physicians are requested to report
each day to the County Health Of
ficer and also to the Department of
/ Public Welfare, the number of new
cases.
/ 1t is advisable to isolate the person
{ i'll at home from the rest of the fam
/ lily as much as possible, and thus
avoid any unnecessary exposure. This
is an excellent time to commence the
practice of good health laws.

NOW POISON THE
GROUND SQUIRREL
Campaign on in Nez Perce
County

The squirrel campaign wx.ch is be-
ing carried on in Nez Perce county
will be conducted in the Southwick
and Leland communities March 16. At
SOuthwick at 9 a. m. and Leland at
2 p. m.
Through the efforts of County
Agent Skuse the biological survey
funds for the determination of squir-
rels on public lands have again been
secured for such lands in this county
and it has been arranged that Mr..
d. D. Green of the biological survey
will go with Mr.. Skuse to the COM
munity meetings., where he will dis
tribute the free poison for the public
land to farmers whose holdings are
adjacent to such land.
The extension division of the uni
yersity purchases the chemicals for
the whole state, after calling for bids,
and each county in turn has the priv
ilege of buying from them. 1t is nec-
essary, however, to have the funds
there before poison can be shipped
out, so it is necessary for those desir-
ing to get poison to deposit with
their community chairman on the
pest control project at the rate of
$1.25 for each ounce of strychnine
alkaloid that they desire to secure.
One ounce is sufficient to treat eight
quarts of oats and this amount of
poison Is ordinarily figured as suf-
ficient for 80 acres of land, with the
average amount of squirrels on it.
With each ounce Of the strychnine
will be the one-eighth ounce of sac
charm and directions for mixing and
distributing. At the end of the sea-
son the funds on hand will be re-
turned prorata to those securing poi
son, as it is handled at cost and the
deposit required is made large
enough to cover the expense of
handling. The alkaloid costs $1.05
and the saccharin Is cents f. o. b.
Boise.
Deposits should be made to get
amount of poison needed for entire
year, as it is doubtful about getting
1t later in the season. Deposits can
also be made at the county agents
office in the postoffice building at
Lewiston and all deposits should be
made at once, as the funds must be in
| the hands Of tha county apont hu

of Neighboring Papers.

Star-Mirror: Thorough investi-
cation of the killing of three deer on
Wednesday in Wauncher gulch, near
Kendrick, is being made by l.. E.
Brooks, deputy state game warden,
according to announcement Monday.
The case is looked upon as one of
the worst in the history of the
county, as the deer are not fit for
human consumption at this time of
the year
Deputy Game Warden Brooks was
called Thursday to investigate the
case and found that three deer had
been killed. One buck had been
killed outright and large doe had
been crippled so badly that Mr..
Brooks was forced to kill the animal.
The killers had apparently killed an
other animal and had made away
with it.
The big doe, wounded, was found
by the roadside and killed by Mr..
Brooks, and the buck was also found
close to the road, having run short
distance before dropping dead
II don't know as yet who the par
ties were, but every effort is being
made to find out and prosecution will
follow" said Mr. Brooks. "It is the
worst case l have ever known since
l have been game warden and look
upon the matter as criminal. The
deer are not fit for human consump-
tion at this time of the year and the
approach of fawning time makes the
offense doubly serious"
Mr.. Brooks reported that there
were many deer around Wauncher
gulch. The winter has driven them
in to seek food on the sides of the
canyon where the snow has disap-
peared.
