GOOD EYE, STEADY NERVE.

In former years, when Oroville
could boast of gun club that could
hold its own over traps with the best
marksmen of eastern Washington, c..
G. Hedger was the top snot. Mr.. He'd
ger was a scatter gun enthusiast and
it was largely due to his efforts that
a club was organized and kept to-
gether season after season. Since Mr..
Hendger left Oroville the club has
ceased to function. After leaving here
Mr.. Hedger was not sufficient fix
ture in Wenatchee to take an active
part in trap shooting and for year
he did not squint over the sights in
front OF the traps. However. he did
not lose his cunning with shotgun
from lack of practice as a record he
made at a meet during the Apple
Blossom festival goes to show. During
the festival members of the Spokane,
Seattle and Wenatchee gun clubs en-
gagged in contest at Wenatchee at
which number of valuable prizes
were offered Mr. Hedger took part
and he came out of the contest as high
man both days On Saturday he won
handsome sweater coat and at the
Sunday shoot small chest Of Com
munity silver A note is made Of this
record as it will be interesting read
ing for his old companions who were
members of the Oroville Gun Club.

INTERESTING BALL GAME.

An interesting ball game took place
on the local grounds last Friday after
noon when teams from Oroville and
Tonasket high schools came together,
turning out much coser than was eX-
pected from the way it started. Tomas
ket threw away the game in the first
inning when through ragged fielding
and some timely swatting on the part
of Oroville four runs were accumulat-
ed. At the end of the third inning the
score stood Oroville to a string Of
blanks for Tonasket and it looked
then as though it would prove a walk
away for the home team. After the
third session, however, the visitors
pulled themselves together and at the
close the score stood 10 to 4 in favor
of Oroville. Eliminate the first inning
and the game proved To be clever
exhibition of the national sport with
the honors fairly even and the small
crowd that attended got the full worth
of their money. 1t was the third time
the Oroville team has defeated the
Tonasket team this season and it was
the best game of the three played.

COVER SPRAY DATE NAY 25.

Mr.. Nielsen, district horticultural
inspector, spent short time in Oro-
vile last Friday, in the course of a
trip through the country during
which he checked over information
locally obtained bearing on the proper
date for the cover spray. For the
northern part of the county, the COW
er spray should be completed by May
25th, generally speaking 1t is obvi-
ously impossible to set any one date
which will fit both the coolest and the
warmest situations, but from his own
knowledge of his own particular
'anch, the individual can slightly vary
the date to fit the conditions. 1t must
be remembered that the time set is for
the completion of the spraying, for it
gives the date at which the eggs will
be Matching and the young worms
starting to attack the fruit, and by
this time the fruit and the foliage
should be well provided win the pois-
onous coating which is to kill the
small worms. In case of doubt as to
the date for your own special condi-
tons, consult the local inspector.

A few days ago the Russian Soviet
delegate to the Near East conference
held at Lausanne, Switzerland, was
assassinated by an ex-officer OF the
Russian army, who gave as his reason
that the soviet authorities had ruth
lessly murdered several members OF
his family. In Russia, like everywhere
else it makes quite difference whose
bull is gored. Soviet officials claim
monopoly upon this practice of muir
der. They consider it their privilege
to kill indiscriminately whenever the
humor moves or whenever there are
victims to put out of the way. But
when 1t comes to killing the Soviet
killers that is altogether another mat
ter. The soviet government is terribly
worked up over the shooting of this
delegate did not deserve what he got,
delegate did not dereve what he got,
but the soviet objects to others in

Thirty-siX states have some sort OF
tax commission or commissioners,
the power of reassessment. Wisconsin
is the pioneer of them all and has
developed the work of the commission
to the highest point. 1t has set the
pace for scientific determination OF
property values for all states. Among
its members at one time and another
have been some of the leading econO-
mists of the country. There Is prob
ably less complaint of assessment and
equalization in that state than any
other in the Union. This bill, after
very careful consideration in the Sen
ate passed with only one dissenting
vote. 1t would have passed the House
if the members had had time to give
the subject more careful study
Likewise it was unfortunate that an
act was not passed governing sclool
administration. For this the legisla-
ture is not subject to criticism. The
difficulty grew out of differences
among educators which could not be
reconciled in time to permit of de-
liberate legislative action; otherwise
school measure would undoubtedly
have been enacted into law.
The legisl ature resisted efforts to
gain more power to themselves by
self-serving officials of certain NUM-
cipalities. whose efforts were not in
any wise supported by the taxpayers.
1t likewise resisted all efforts to ex-
tend the operations of municipalities

properties without compensatory con-
tribution for property removed from

admirable legislature.
