Attempt to Mandamus
Land Commissioners Fails

OLYMPIA.-The Supreme Court
has denied Sidney E. Goodwin and
w. F. White preemptory writ of
mandate to compel Clark " Savidge,
commissioner of public lands, to is
sue gas and oil lease ON school lands
in Benton County.
The writ was denied by the court
on the ground but the case should
have been brought in the Superior
Court, and that such court would
have the power to give any necessary
relief
Mr.. Savidge declined to issue oil
and gas leases on certain school
lands near Benton City because he
believes the school fund would be
greater benefited if the lands were
held intact until a supposed deposit
of petroleum believed to underlie the
lands can be investigated. Ii the oil
is discovered, the leases will be
worth great deal more than Good

Prevent Ruu;.;na Ears

Aside from the real annoyance con.
nected with a running ear, such as the
discomforting moisture, the impaired
hearing, and the consciousness OF the
disagreeable odor, there is real dan
ger that should not be overlooked nor
neglected. AS in most other ailments,
the ounce of prevention should be
learned and applied
Infections that attack the nose and
throat frequently involve the ear, and
to prevent ear trouble when you have
fresh cold in the nose or throat, a
few drops of oil should be dropped in
the nose three or four times daily,
with an eye-dropper. An oil that can
be obtained at any drug store, known
as albolene, is good.
1t is a good practice to put drop
or two of this in the baby's nose at
least once day, preferably at bed
time. 1t is also important not to
blow" the nose while the nose and
and throat are inflamed. Gargles
and nasal washes are dangerous as
they are apt to carry the infection to
the ear.
Frequently it is found necessary to
remove the tonsils and adenoids to
effect cure in a child.
Chronic discharging ears frequent
ly are due to neglect for which there
is no good excuse. A person who has
chronic ear, which suddenly COM
mences to discharge more, should re-
gard this as a serious warning and
consult a physician, as it probably
means that the infection or disease
is making serious progress, not only
endangering the hearing, but perhaps
life itself. The infection, if unchecked,
destroys a large portion of the bone,
having only a thin shell to protect the
brain and the large vessel which runs
through the ear and the mastoid
An impressive percentage of our
youths drafted for the war we're re-
jected because of chronic ear condi.
tions. Taken early, these conditions
sould have been helped and deafness
prevented. 1t is important to remem!
Der that in the acute infections pain
may be entirely absent. But that is
no reason for neglecting the other
warnings that Nature has wisely pro.
vided.

SPEAKER LAUDs sAuERKRAUT
AS THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH

CINCINNATI. - Sauerkraut is the
fountain Of youth" and will add to
longevity, was the declaration of Will
liam Glendenin, New York, noted food
research expert, before the National
kraut Packers Association at the Ma
tional Gamers Association here.
IF you want to live to be 103 years
old, eat sauerkraut every day." said
Glendenin. "Sauerkraut is the vacuum
cleaner Of the body. 1t abounds in
Tactic acid and the Tactic germs that
fight the bad germs in the food tract
and keep the system in fine condition.
Scientists have proved the great
health-giving values of sauerkraut.
and sauerkraut also contains ~
per cent alcohol, which violates the
Volstead law, so per cent maximum"
Glendenin said that in New York
the Cincinnati cocktail" was a new
drink that is gaining favor.
"It consists of wineglass full of
sauerkraut juice with a bit of ice.
No alcohol is added. My authority
for saying there is 70 per cent alcohol
in sauerkraut is the chemical depart
ment Of the University of Wisconsin"

Recommends Prospecting
In Skagit Coal Fields

o. P. Jenkins of the geology de,
partment at the State College Of
Washington is of the opinion that the
coal in the Cumberland Creek district
of Skagit County, Washington, de-
serves prospecting in view of develop,
ing mine. Professor Jenkins made
careful survey of western Skagit
County, as a continuation of work
previously done in Whatcom County.
Although no coal mines were actu.
ally producing any coal on CONNER.
ci'I scale in that county when he was
there, he found several places where
coal may be produced The old Coke
dale mine was formerly quite an i'm
portant contributor to the coke indus
try of the state.
THE coking quality of the Goals in
Skagit County. especially in the Coke,
dale and Cumberland Creek areas, is
of considerable significance, for Goals
of that quality are limited in extent
in Washington" says Prof. jenkins.
'The thickest seams of coal were
found in the Cokedale mine and in the
Cumberland Creek prospects. Further
development at Cokedale could now
only be done with much deeper
mining, unless examination through
diamond drilling would disclose a
more favorable way of entering the
seam from the surface.
"The Cumberland Creek area de.
serves investigation with the drill
and with other methods of prospect.
ing. 1t would not be worth while,
however, in either case to go ahead
without careful consideration Of geo.
logic conditions.
THE Cokedale and Cumberland
areas at present appear to be the most
deserving OF development of any In
the county. The Blumont district
does not at present indicate many
good features for finding coal of con.
siderable extent, although some
pockets! may be found If further pros
pecting is carried on. The area about
McMurray has not been sufficiently
tested to disclose any coal seams of
Importance. The outcrops show only
thin seams. Possibly drilling might
cut seams of consequence.
IF any coal mines should be de-
veloped in the county, the transpor-
tation facilities would be found to
be unusually good, for railroads enter
nearly every district wehere coal
measures lie."

Housewives knowledge
of Meat Cuts Limited

CHICAGO, Ill.-In spite of the fact
that the majority of American house
wives shop personally for the family
meat, their knowledge OF the various
cuts and grades is most limited. These
facts were revealed in a preliminary
report of government experts to the
National Live Stock and Meat Board
regarding a survey of the retail meat
trade being conducted by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture through
out the United States.
Practically 20 per cent of the won.
en- interviewed to determine the con.
sumer's habits regarding meat stated
that they go to the shops themselves
for their meat supply, says the report.
About one family out of seven de-
ponds on the telephone to make pur-
chases and the man of the family is
the purchasing agent in one out OF
ten families.
On the other hand, most of the
women questioned were familiar with
only two or three steaks and the
number of roasts known TO them was
less than two. The general lack OF
information on the part of the con-
sumner further emphasizes that the
housewife is not a careful purchaser
in making meat selections, concludes
the report. These questions together
with a number of others were asked
of housewives of all circumstances.

State May Have Gold
On Some of Its Land

1t is just possible the State OF
Washington may include some gold
bearing sands among its landed pos

Savidge thinks enough of the posi-
bility to keep close watch on pros
pecting now being done in eastern
Lewis County where gold strike was
reported recently. The state, which
retains title to any minerals that may
be found on, in or under It's land, has
a great deal of property in the vicin
ity of the reported strike.

DISTRIBUTION COST OF ELECTRICITY HIGH

that for rural distribution the percent
age was 80 and sometimes even
higher
Mr. Mead stated that the power to be
obtained from waterppwer was great
ly overrated. He stated that the
great value of the majority of water
powers is potential only, and that
not more than so per cent of these
powers can be profitably developed.
He stated that the country will always
depend upon its steam generating sta.
tons for its major electricity supply.

With the vast interconnections OF
power lines and the gradual building
up of so-calied super power systems
has come a vision to the public and
press of electric poT7r to be had at
little or no cost
Warnings of the fallacy of this idea
have been sounded by scores Of the
country's leaGing electric engineers.
The keynote of NEST of these warn.
ings has been that super power meant,
not low prices, but adequacy and de-
pendability of service.
Cost of delivery in the distribution
of electricity is pointed out as one of
the big fixed costs.

PLANTING TREES AND SHRUBS

There is considerable misunder-
standing as to the Lest time for plant
ing trees, shrubs and flowers" says a
State College OF Washington author
ity. On the west of the Cascades
either spring or fall planting is sue.
cessful for trees and shrubs. While
many hardy rerennials may be plant.
ed in the spring, fall is generally best
for such plants. East of the Cascades
spring will generally be found the
most suitable time for planting shrubs
and trees and fall the best time for
hardy perennials.'
