disease acts and to offer them aid
if this condition should strike their
herds.
"The possibility of this loss occur
ing in Okanogan county is not en-
tirely without reason since the first
of these losses were experienced in
the earliest portions OF Douglas and
Grant counties and new outbreaks
have occurred in the later areas as
the season progresses The ranges
inspected last week on this trip were
very comparable in development TO
much of the south half of Okano-
gan county. 1t would be my opinion
that stockmen of that area should
keep close watch Of their herds dur
ing the next several weeks to catch
the first of any such losses If any
should occur.
No Poisonous Weeds
Losses have been occurring on
mixed grass range, and on This
range which I had the opportunity
of visiting there was a more or less
even distribution of bunch grass,
cheat and blue grass. There were
no weeds which are commonly
known to be poisonous nor were
there any shrubs or brush On which
stock were grazing and which are
poisonous. The stock did not appear
to be eating predominance OF any
kind of grass or weeds but three
head of stock were lost within a few

hours and all on one relatively
small portion of the range. 1t is re-
ported that the losses have been
experienced almost entirely on grass
ranges and much of it on ranges
where bunch grass has been the
chief type of forage.
"Sick animals show decided
nervousness, with lack of control of
the limbs, the front legs in partic-
ular. At some stages they have what
can best be termed fits and there
is some frothing at the mouth
Affected animals do not necessarily
die suddenly and few recover from
it. Sick animals seem to lose at
least a portion of their desire to
drink but throughout most of their
sickness they evidence desire to
eat anything they can get. It seems
that they become constipated only
occasionally. AS yet there seems to
be no specific cure which can be
recommended.
Say Fungus Is Cause
s'Most veterinarians, including
members of the State Department
of Agriculture, state that the loss
is being caused by some mysterious
fungus growing on the bunch grass.
However, as yet they have not prov
ed this contention and at no place
do we find record of such cause be-
ing authenticated.
MANY stocknlcn are blaming the
loss on smutted cheat grass. How
ever, it has been my personal ex-
perience on the range where I was
raised and where cheat grass smut
ted a number of years ago, that
this does not cause cattle losses. I
have observed further that in some
Of the most heavily smutted areas
in Okanogan county no cattle loss
has been experienced. 1t was inter-
esting, too, to note that there was
practically no smut in the cheat
grass on the ranges which I visited
in Douglas county last week. Still
there had been loss of cattle only
a few days before.
eve must state then that the
cause is unknown and we can not
tell how to prevent the loss if the
livestock are running on the range
nor how to control it if it once
starts except to remove the stock
from the range. We can not tell
whether or not this disease will
occur year after year if it once
strikes because we do not know
what it is. 1t is my understanding
though, that botonists and other
scientists are now working On this
matter hoping to be able to make
some report soon. Until then it
would seem to be wise to keep close
watch of the sock and to report
any losses to this office as soon as

HOME EVOLUTION SHOWN
BY TRANSPARENCY

With a background of colored
transparencies, covering the history
of mans habitations, this years Ex-
tension Service exhibit to be shown
at the district fairs throughout the
state will feature the ideal farm
home as a part of the services pro-
gram in cooperation with the Bet
ter Housing Administration.
The exhibit is now being prepared
by staff of artists under the di-
rection of r. N. Miller, extension
service economist who will accom-
pany the exhibit, at the various
fairs where it is to be shown. Roger
Deal, architect, will also be in at
tendance to answer questions for
farmers concerning farm home
building and remodeling.
Illustrate Dwellings
The background of the exhibit is
a series of 10 Photographic trans
parencies showing the evolution of
human habitations, and carrying an
Illuminated sign over all saying:
"HoW Man Has Lived And How He
May Improve His Home Several
types of rude dwellings are illus
trated, including stone huts, In
dian tepees, and tree dwellings. A
picture is shown of a pioneer log
house and two types of present day
farm homes, one the dilapidated
structure on poorly kept place and
the other a modern well built farm
home.
According to present plans, in the
| foreground will be a revolving scale
model of typical up-to-date farm
establishment. The entire exhibit
will be lighted and is certain to
provide farmers with ideas on home
construction and betterment. Help
full pamphlets also have been pro-
vided by the State Extension Ser
vice which will be free to all farm
ers interested.
The display will be shown first
at Chehalis beginning August 81.
From there it will move to Ellens-
burg on August 30; going next to
Walla Walla on September 6; to
Lynden on September II and to
Puyallup on September 16 where it
will remain until the 21st at the
Western Washington Fair.

Banker Opposes Senators
Banker came out during the re-
cent legislature against having the
people of Washington pass the
Observation-Disclosures power resolu-
ton at the 1896 election. He said
the federal government already had
set up agencies to finance building
transmission lines and it wasn't
necessary for the state to pass the
resolution, which would authorize
issuance of up to $31,O00,000 in
power bonds to do the work.
Governor Martin shortly after
told the legislature he thought the
people should have chance to vote
on the resolution. He did not, how
ever, endorse the measure.
Governor Martin can be expected
to oppose the bonds in the light of
his recent speeches declaring him
self against amy more bond issues"
The $10,000,000 relief bond issue
soured him on that method of fl
nancing public improvements.
Members of his own official fam
lily and others are wondering what

election.
The governor may choose to re-
main silent on both bond issues. He
repeatedly has favored action to
control the states disastrous win
ter floods. Whether he will support
the bond issue method of matching
local and federal funds to do the
work remains to be seen.
Case Thinks He's Wanted
Thus far, State Treasurer Otto
Case, who admits people are asking
him to run for governor next year
has not adopted power as one of
his plankS.
He has, however, corralled about
every other popular issue for his
platform, leaving other guberna-
torial candidates with no choice but
to follow him.
Case is against the sales tax and

CONGRESSIONAL STRIKERS

1t is apparent as one reads the newspapers that
ia not inconsiderable number of members of COZ
gress shirk their duty in Washington most repre-
hensively.
There is almost never a vote in either the house
of representatives or the senate which shows the
full membership, and often quite noticeable per-
centage of the members is absent.
1t is possible there are certain times when some
of them may have legitimate government business
elsewhere.
But the sessions of congress are the chief bust
ness of these men in Washington, and attendance
is not something of casual Importance.
We note from time to time, however that mem-
bers are travelling about the country giving paid
lectures delivering political speeches for various
purposes and causes.
That certainly is not something for which we
elect them and pay them good salaries and ex-
penses.
Now we are told that some of them have become
tired out by the long summers work in over-heated
Washington, and have gone home or to some other
more comfortable place to rest.
The folks back home, however, have to work at
their jobs, even if the weather is hot and they are
tired
They can't take few days off to earn little
extra money giving a lecture while their regular
pay goes on.
If the congressman are tired ard want to go home
they may wind up their business and shut up shop
any time they get ready as far as the rest of Us
are concerned.
But as long as they think they have work to do
tine country expects them to do it and not to shirk

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
COMPETITION AND coMPULsfoN

In defense of competition as compelling force
which makes for achievement, Bruce Barton writes
and he writes like sage The subject has an ao-
sorbing interest just at this time. Says he;

again,
did you evs wander about the countryside in
fog? You knew about where you were, but the
illusion persisted that you might be somewhere
else. Then the fog lifted and everything was just
where you knew it would be.
Business has been that way. In fog of ilu-
sion. The old landmarks seemed to vanish. Facts
yielded to fallacy ....
lone of the most pleasing of these fog-shrouded
fgments was that there wasn't going to be any
more competition Then the supreme court pulled
and the fog thinned out and there was competition
lust where it had always been-and always will be.
1T was really more of task to get rid of COM
petition than reformers realized. There were too
many variables. hard worker will always keep
ahead of a loafer. A man always wrong in his judg
ments cannot compete with one who IS right occa-
sionally. A dirty window cannot sell as much mer-

"One can sympathize with humaae purpose TO

ing picture-that Utopia where the strong tote
weak competitors pigback, and the efficient tie one
hand behind their backs as to take no unfair
advantage of the inefficient, and the swift are han

until it seemed it would never cover every possible

WTASHINGTON-For whatever
w Il may be worth-and per-
haps it's just one of those strange
things the August heat has a way
of producing here-the impress
sion has been growing around this
town that Herbert Hoover is
most likely to be the Republican
candidate against Roosevelt in
1886.
You can still get a violent argu-
ment against such a possibility
almost anywhere. The point is
that it's only recently anyone here
has taken Mr.. Hoover's chances
Of denomination seriously.
There's even some kind of a
movement on for a GAO. P. ticket
of Hoover and Lindbergh. Can't
tell yet who is promoting it or
how important it's likely to be.
THE Hoover talk seems largely
u based on the ex-president's re-
cent activity and belief among
some politicians that he will win
by virtue of a divided, deadlocked
field. Col. Frank Knox of Chicago
Is currently considered the chief
threat to. Hoover's hopes. But
don't pay too much attention to
this hot weather speculation. Wait
for, the first primaries next spring.
An observer just back from a
western trip reports a genuine re-
yiyal Of Republican hopes and an
epidemic, Of factional fights be-
tween Democrats in many states
