this probably would be exceeded.
DUKES PLAN TO BE
CONSIDERED
The country affected. Chamber OF
Commerce reports show. buys about
10 per cent Of It's supplies thru
Seattle wholesale houses, which
have been Int hard by a pf the
continued drought The balance Of
the trade goes TO the Spokane terri
tory. which has been ever harder
hit.
Among the plans 70 be consid-
cred next Wednesday is that OF
John T.. Duke. vice president OF
the Dexter Horton National bank.
This plan calls for formation Of a
pool by clearing house banks IN tho
larger cities. together with bust
ness interests trad'rg In the terri
tory. including wholesale houses and
shippers This pool would be adj
ministered from a central office, the
money being loaned 20 the, farmers
probably at 6 per cent and forming
a first lien on the expected crop.
Payments would take precedence
over farm mortgage loans.
In a somewhat similar, but not
no serious situation several years
ago. banks alone financed the pool.
This time. because OF the necessity
for getting quick action, business
houses will be asked TO help.
80 INVITED To
BE AT CONFERENCE
About 80 representatives Of farm
ers, bankers and business men from
all over tho state are expected at
the meeting. Telegams were sent
TO them Friday night, asking at

Necessity for the pool was caused
when Gov. Hartley vetoed a state
loan OF $500. 600. drawing G per cent.
In 1923 the legislature authorized
a s25O.Oo0 loan. Ninety-three per

and the law applying in such cases.
which is that il dog is found chas-
ing deer after it's owner has been
notified that said dog has chased
deer. the dog Is not only liable to be
killed by an officer so finding 1t but
the owner is subject to prosecution
and a severe penalty.
In addition to the above COM
plant. the Department of Inland
Fisheries and Game received report
this morning from Bella Wass of
Cherryfield, Chief Warden of south
ern Washington county district that
complaints of logging Of deer at
eastern Washington county had
come to him. Wardens Sproul and
Foley were Immediately dispatched
to the scene but arrived too late to
rescue the deer. This poor animal,
like the one in York county, being
already so badly mangled by the
dogs that it died. An effort will be
made to establish the identity of the
owners of the dogs.
