Big Power Deal On
Olympic Peninsula

That another tremendous stride has
been taken in the general electrified
ton of Western Washington becomes
apparent in the announcement mad~
by the Puget Sound Power & Light
Company to the effect that that COM
pany has just acquired the electric
light and power properties Of the
North Pacific Public Service Com
pany operating in Bremerton, Charles
ton and Poulsbo and adjacent terri
tory and will take possession Janu-
airy 2, 1926. This transaction, to-
gether with the acquisition of the high
tension transmission line Of the
Northwestern Power & Manufacture
ing Company Of Port Angeles and Of
the distribution system and power
sites on the Dungeness River owned
by the Sequim Light & Power Com
pany, completes the Puget Sound
Company's purchase program on the
peninsula, adding total area OF al
tory already served by the company
Included in this are practically all the
towns and communities of Importance
in Clallam, jefferson and Kitsap
Counties.
Plans of the Puget Sound Power e.
Light Company, as announced by
L
Vice President William III. Grath, in
clude the immediate formation of
seventh operating district to be
known as the Western District with
headquarters at Bremerton, but no
announcement can yet be made with
regard to the personnel
In addition to this it is planned to
link the Olympic Peninsula with the
great mainland system of inter-con
nected power plants by means Of two
huge submarine cables which will en-
| ter the water In the neighborhood of
Edmonds, on the mainland side, and
emerge at Presidents Point on the
Peninsula from which high tension
lines will be built to connect with
the existing transmission system at
a point about halfway between Port
Gamble and Keyport.
Each of these two cables will be
constructed in one piece and will be
10000 feet in length and each have a
capacity of 10000 horsepower, thus
adding 10000 horsepower to the pow
err resources of the Peninsula and
ending for all time the shortage
which has hitherto handicapped the
development of that part of the state
as well as assuring an ample supply
to meet future needs of the Navy
Yard at Bremerton and other indus
tries.
A program of electrical expansion
on wholesale scale will be put In
effect by the company Immediately.

UNITED STATES TRADE
WITH THE philippines

The total foreign trade of the Phil
ippines for the calendar year 1923 was
$2O8, 552,737, of which 65 per cent was
with the United States. During the
last year the Philippines purchased
$50,654,71O worth Of American goods
or So per cent Of all goods imported
into the islands. Philippine exports in
1923 amounted to $120,752,990, OF
which $85,543,575, or II per cent
went to the United States. -
In 1904 Philippine foreign trade
totalled $29,5OO,OOO, with imports and
exports evenly divided In 20 years,
foreign trade has increased 700 per
cent, with the United States handling
the major portion of it.
Yet our trade with the Islands is far
short of possibilities. Were Philippine
purchases from the United States on
an equal basis with Hawaii, or about
5000 per capita a year, they would be
more than 100000 annually. AS for
exports, the value is only limited by
the development Of the insular nat
ural resources.

NEW ORLEANS MAN SUCCEEDS TO

Brief dispatches from Washington,

Of the new commissioner. However,
Mr.. Walsh although virtually un-
known on the West Coast, has had
much experience in shipping on the
Gulf and is not entirely unfamiliar
with conditions on Puget Sound.
After living in Wisconsin a number
of years, Mr. Walsh came to this state
and was appointed to the Naval Acad-
envy from Washington, graduating in
1901. He served in the Navy until

Medium Sized Normal
PuLlets Are Desirable

No correlation was found to exist
between the size Of pullet and her
yearly production, in experiments
conducted by Prof. r. T. Parkhurst
at the Idaho University poultry
farm.
A study of the relation of certain
factors in Single Comb White Leg
horns showed that the more pulet
weighed when she started laying
the heavier were the first 10 eggs
she laid, and the largest pullet as
measured by their maximum weight
for the year, laid eggs that averaged
the heaviest for the year.
"This,' says Professor Parkhurst,
is an important consideration,
since in the past early maturity, as
indicated by "a small number of
days from date of hatch to date OF
first egg, has been emphasized. 1t
is natural to expect that pullets
which begin laying early, weigh less
when they start than those that take
longer time to mature. Rnpid
bodily maturity is therefore as es
sential as rapid sexual maturity as
indicated by the laying Of the first
egg
"The large pullet laying a large
egg would seem desirable. The
large pullet, however, natures too
slowly and Is less efficient egg pro
Queer. Efficient management calls
for pullets Of medium size, matured
normally, both bodily and sexually.
Indications are that such pullets have
the best chances of being producers
of standard eggs as we'll as an equal
chance Of being high producers.

This means that approximately

Farmers will be much better paid

POOR SCHOOL FUND
BILL is DEFEATED

The school district feud found it's
prototype in the closest and hardest
fought legislative battle of this SEES

listening to three and a half hours
debate, killed Senator Winners
school equalization bill, which pro-
vided for $375,0O0 aid for poor school
districts. The final vote was 20 for
the bill, 10 against, and three mem
bers absent Twenty-Five votes were
required for an official majority.
Long strings Of statistics, former
school fights, such as the 1910 unit
plan, silk stocks, bobbed hair, crum-
bling school buildings-were all a
part Of the tumble that was poured
out in the three and half hours de-
bate. Two educators disagreed. Sen
ator Wilmer, of Whitman county, led
the fight for the bill. Senator w.
]. Sutton, of Spokane county, op,
posed the measure.
"This state is more interested in
elementary schools than any phase of
education" declared Senator Charles
Myers, of Lincoln county. give per
cent of the incorrigible girls at the
state school for girls, at Grand
Mound, never completed the eighth
grade: I claim that education is less
expensive than reform, for we could
take any one Of these girls at Grand
Mound to our state normal, give them
an education, feed, clothe them, bob
their hair, give them silk stocks, for
less than their maintenance costs at
Grand Mound, which is 1852 a year.
The people want schools, and they
are willing to pay for them"
On the final vote the senators who
favored the equalization bill were:
Senators Barnes, Barclay Bishop,
Conyard, Davis, Hall, Harrison, Hurn,
Jacobsen, Karshner, Kirkman, Nc
Cauley, Morthland, Myers, Norman,
