SERIOUSLY ILL
Black Widow Sends Monse Wo-
man To Omak Hospital Sun
day
Nespelem Man Ill
Was Bitten Last Week After Kill
ing Two Spiders In Old
Outbuilding

Bites of black widow spiders have
resulted in the serious illness Of two
Okanogan county residents within
the last few days. Both victims OF
the poisonous spiders were for a
time in very serious condition, but
apparently are recovering now.
SelWyn I'reXler of Nespelem was
bitten last week while helping his
father tear down an old outbulld-
ing. He had killed two black
widows while at work and later
brushed spider from his arm.
Poison Acted Quickly
In a short time he noticed bite
and the arm began to hurt. 1t
swelled quickly and in short time
he became quite i'll. running high
temperature. He is recovering now
Mrs. Rose Dick was rushed to an
Omak hospital Sunday evening
when she was bit near her home at
Monse by a black widow. Hospital
attendants reported last night that
the patient is resting easily now
and "out of danger"
Black widow spiders have been
found in nearly all parts of the
county since they were given ma
tion- wide publicity year or so ago.
They are usually found in deserted
or little-used buildings, and in dark
Easements and StoreroomS.
The black widow is easily identi-
fled through its perculiar red 'Fhour
glass" marking ON the underside OF
the body. 1t is glossy black in color
and has long legs. Most of the black
widows found in this vicinity are
of about the same shape and size
as shoe button.

New Laws Relieve
Back Tax Burden
Delinquent Taxpayers May Cash
In On Interest Remission;
Chance To Save Lands

Delinquent taxpayers of Okano.
gan county who take advantage o.
tax legislation enacted by the state
legislature at the last session viii
be able to cash in on the interes'
remission and rebate allowance law.
and save their lands from fore.
closure, according to v. B. White
county treasurer.
Tells Laws Benefits
In circular mailed to delinquent
taxpayers Mr.. White outlines the
chief points of the new laws. He
also explains that the laws expire or
November 30 of this year, and thai
thereafter the usual accrued inter
est, 10 per cent on delinquent taxes
will be charged. There will be nc
rebate and no further delinquent
tax agreements offered after that
date.
The three main points of ths
circular follow:
lon the 1882 and all prior de-
linquent taxes the customary 10 PEI
cent interest is cancelled if taxes
are paid by November 30, 1885.
2-On all 1882 and prior tax years
there is an additional flat rebate
of per cent if paid by November
80, 1885,
May Pay Installments
3-Until November 80, 1895, a de-
liquent taxpayer may enter into ar
agreement with the county treasur-
er to pay 1888 and all prior dein-
quent taxes in 90 semi annual in
stallments with interest on the de-
ferred balances at per cent. Gus
tomary accrued interest at 10 pei
cent is cancelled. When this con-
tract is made with the county the
first one-twentieth of the total Of
the delinquent taxes, plus the
amount then due ON the 1884 taxes
must be paid. The next installment
will be due May 81, 1896.
Mr.. White explained yesterday
that persons who are planning or
the delinquent tax contracts are
urged to write the treasurer's office
or go to the office as soon as pos
sible. This makes it possible tx
avoid the usual last-minute rush al
the office, permitting the office
staff to give better service from now
until the last half tax becomes de-
linquent.

AAA Plans To Pay
For Raising Hogs
Administration Seeks Opinions
On Proposal To Award Farm
ers For 1886 Production

WASHINGTON, October / = Re-
versing its program of two years
ago, the agricultural adjustment adj
ministration today sought opinions
on a proposal to establish system
of awards to farmers for increasing
their 1885 hog production.
Millions of pigs were slaughtered
under the original corn-hog reduc-
ton program, but the high cost OF
pork resulting from an almost un-
precedented shortage in hogs, has
caused the AAA to consider benefits
to farmers who support an increas-
ed production schedule.
Officials said an award system
has become necessary because:
l. Pork prices have risen to "a
per cent above the 1929 level, with
the result that the average con-
sumner can no longer afford to buy.
2. Hog production has fallen to
the lowest level since 1910.
The slaughtering program was
undertaken because of a serious
shortage of feed crops, which made
hog raising Improbable. Officials
said these crops now are plentiful,
and farmers are in better position
to feed large herds.
Opposition to the new proposal is
anticipated from both farmers and
packers who fear that fat profits
will be wiped out by increasing pro-
dlaction.

RFC MOVES TO SPEED LOANS
TO SMALL MINING OPERATORS
Regional Engineers Appointed 10
Assist Applicants For
Federal Funds
Outline Procedure
Inspector Will Visit Property If
Mining Section Approves
Application
(From the Engineering and Mining
Journal for September, 1880

(From the Engineering and Mining
Journal for September, 1880
To assist applicants for loans for
the development of small mining
properties, the Reconstruction FL
nance corporation has appointed
supervising engineers in six mining
regions. The areas, the engineers
appointed and his headquarters are
as follows:
Arizona-New Mexico, William B.
Gohring, Phoenix; California, B. M.
Snyder, Los Angeles; Colorado, How
ard N. Larry, Denver; Nevada, Roy
A. Hardy, Reno; Montana Idaho,
August Grunert, Helena; oregon,
washington and Alaska, Alton F.
Klitz, Portland.
Mr.. Klitz will also have an office
in Juneau where he will spend part
of his time. These men with former
senator Aasker L. Oddie, are the
only mining representatives the
RIG has In the field.
Though 1t is contrary to the pol
icy of the RFC to allow those in its
service to prepare applications for
loans, the supervising engineers will
give all necessary guidance to pros
pective applicants.
When an application for devel-
opment loan is found to be promis-
ing by the mining section in Wash
ington, the supervising engineer for
the region will be asked to come and
examine the property. It the loan
is granted the applicant will be re-
quired to pay the actual cost OF the
examination. If the application is
rejected the costs will be paid by
tfae RIG. This policy was adopted
when it became evident that very
few Of those applying for the devel-
opniert loans are in a position to
pay for the examination of their
property. ALI examinations of prop
critics covered by class A loans will
be made as heretofore by mining en-
g.aleers resident in the locality, Sc
lected by the RIG but paid by the
applicant.
When the money Is advanced for
the development loan, the regional
engineer or somoaie he will name
will visit the property each two
weeks and make a progress report.
The purpose of this frequent inspec-
ton is to make sure that the money
is being used to the best advantage.
A condition of the loan is, that the
borrower accompany the RFC en-
gineer on these inspection trips If
at all possible.
Up to Sept. l, applicants for class
A loans had reported $4,000 paid
out for the engineering services in
connection with RFC examinations.
Loans have been made totaling
$6,605 900 in amounts ranging from
$4,000 to 100000 each.

Darrow stared at the familiar hand

He leaned nearer the lamp.
"Well, come on. Don't let 1t en-
barrass you: I've asked her to marry
me-" Bob said unevenly.

and far of as the gurgling Of the

At queer sound from the bed
Darrow sprang forward; the letter
luttered to the floor.

unsteady. He held out his hand
weakly.
Il had fool idea that 1t might
have been you. but now can grab
the old boat and go back. Wish me a
happy landing, old man, wish me"
the voice died away.
Darrow's fingers closed down over
Bob's.
It was some time before Darrow
realized that Bob, with a faint smile
touching the corners of his firm
young mouth, had made his last
landing.

caught him by the shoulders, forcing
him back.
Easy old man." he said in sooth-
ing voice.
But I've got to get out of here.
Those young rubber trees must be
marked" Bob's voice registered ex-
citement; he gazed up at Darrow with
eyes bright with fever.
Gently Darrow forced him back on
the bed.
Listen to me, Bob. There's a let
ter from Judith"
Instantly Bob quieted down. More
than once, during these awful days,
the mere mention of Judith's name
had done the trick.
Bob was just back from months
leave. He was full of the memory
Of Judith. Darrow knew that the
moment his seaplane landed. He
had been back a week when he was
stricken down with fever. Every day
Mamma had taken the launch to Bo-
jon-a half days journey-to fetch
the doctor. Each time the doctor had
shook his head. Today he had told
Darrow that Bob wouldn't last through
the night.
At first Darrow didn't believe him,
but as the day wore on he knew. He
had seen enough of fever in his two
years on the plantation to let him
know when man was losing the
fight.
Mamma had brought back from Bo-
Jon two letters from Judith, one ad-
dressed to him and one to Bob. Dar-
row read his-the polite letter of a
good friend; nothing more.
They had corresponded regularly
for two years, but Darrow had al
ways kept it on that basis. There
was nothing else for it. Bob was
wealthy in his own right. This learn
ing to be planter was hobby with
him.. Bob could speak to Judith of
love; but what right had he, Darrow,
with four years to 60 before he'd be
even half owner of the plantation?
Moreover. Bob was her preference,
must have been since the first night
they had met her at prep school.
Bob had asked her to marry him.
Darrow had learned that through
Bob's babbling. He talked Of it in
cessantly. No doubt her answer was
in the envelope lying beside the kero-
sene lamp on the rough table in the
middle of the room.
