Miles Moore Finishes Job
Started BY Isaac Stevens
And Now Tacoma Cele-
brates Statehood Jubilee
NATIONAL politics had an in
~ nuence in making Miles c.
Moore of Walla Walls the last
territorial governor of Washing
ton. The high tariff Republicans
had won a decisive victory over
the ariff-for-revenue-only DEM
ocrats. Benjamin Harrison sue
ceeded Grover Cleveland in the
White House March 4, 1889.
President Harrison deyot-
ed his early activities to
turning the rascals" out
and putting honest Repub-
licans' in their places. He
reached out To the northwest
corner of the United States
and appointed Miles c.
Moore Of Walls Walia,
staunch Republican. 10 sue
ceed the Democratic terri
torial governor. Eugene
Semple.
President Harrison knew that
the territory would become a
state in a few months. 1t would
have been a nice gesture to ask
Gov Semple to serve the re-
naming few months but he was
a Democrat and the Republi-
cans gave no quarter. Neither
would the Democrats under SIM
liar circumstances.
AS long as a change was in
evitable, the territory was for
tunate in the appointment of
Gov. Moore. Besides meeting
the political requirements he was
well qualified for the position
generally. Had President Har-
rison scanned the national roster
of good Republicans he would
not have found a better choice.
Gov. Moore was a product of
a Methodist academy at Point
Bluff. Wis. He started west in
the early sixties, finally landing
in Walla Walla, penniless. He
obtained work as q grocery clerk
and in three years was a part
ner in one of the largest stores
in Walla Walla.
Intelligent, Industrious
and religiOusly inclined, in a
community in which those
qualities were highly rated,
he was bound TO get ahead.

who left his mark indelibly
on Southeastern Washing
ton.
From that time there was no
doubt of young Moore's future.
He was advanced from one po-
sition to another, not because
he was the son-in-law of DR..
Baker but because of his in
dustry, integrity and business
judgment. When he received
the appointment as governor of
Washington territory he was an

Organize Dairy Groups
BY CONGRESSMAN KnutsOn

AS a general proposition am
opposed to the formation of blocs
in Congress. The practice leads to
log-rolling and has other undesir-
able features. On Monday Of last
week issued a call for a meeting
of the representatives from dairy
sections of the country in hope
that we could work out something
that would be of help to the dairy
man who has had very little assis-
lance from the several agricultural
programs. We discussed the situa-
ton pro and con and decided that
fer immediate relief it would be
necessary to make available a
sum sufficiently large to enable the
Surplus Commodities Corporation
to go into the market and buy up
a sufficient quantity of butter and
other dairy products to bring the
market back to a level where the
producer could at least break even.
This plan worked fairly satisfac-
torily while it was in operation
but it would have been much more
helpful had all the surplus butter
bought by the government been
distributed to those on relief in
stead of storing much of it as was
done.
Two committees were appointed
one to confer with Secretary Wal
lace and Mr.. Gaumnitz of the Sur
plus Commodities Corporation, who
is in Minnesota as this is written.
The Committee hopes to have a
meeting with these gentlemen be-

HINTS

@. Do unabsorbed yolks kill
chicks or cause disease?
A. No. Unabsorbed yolks are al
ways a result and not a cause.
Q. How can one avoid conditions
of that kind?
A. Start the chicks out right, that
is, have everything ready before
they come: Proper heat, plenty OF
room, good wholesome feed.
@. What is the best feed for baby
chicks?
A. Commercial rations, especially
prepared for baby chicks, are now
available. These are usually very
satisfactory and very good.
@. When should chicks be fed?
A. Chicks may be fed as soon as
they are brought out to the brood
er house. They are at that time
usually from twenty-four to forty.
eight hours old. They should be
fed before they are sixty hours old
@. Should sodo be used as a lax
alive?
A. Soda is very often dangerou:
and may actually kill chicks. Other

@. What type of coccidiosis is
more common in growing or lay
ing birds?
A. The intestinal type is more
common after the birds become six
teen weeks of age.
Q. Is coccidiosis common In lay
ing birds?
A. It Is not unusual to have a
severe outbreak of chronic or in
festival coccidiosis in birds after
they have come into production.
@. What are the symptoms?
A. Birds lose weight and go in
to mott. They begin to shrivel
and dry up around the head. They
look sick and inattentive. They
lose their appetites and droop
around but the death loss may not
be very heavy. Sometimes paral-
ysis is present.
@. How do farm chickens be-
come infected with coccidio?
A. Chickens can get coccidiosis
only by consuming feed, water or
soil contaminated with droppings
of infected birds.

six years can be abandoned, and
that steps should be taken to begin
a gradual curtailment Of expendi-
lures with the prospect of a bal
anced budget within a reasonable
time
Even the most conservative es-
Inmates concerning efforts toward
balanced budget have figured
that such a result would require at
least two years. Moreover, it is
well known that this result can
not be achieved without the CO.
operation Of the President.
The Administration is respon-
sible for the steady growth of fed
eral expenditures which have
doubled since 1888, and now it can
not sit back smugly after it has
got the country into it's present
financial plight and throw the
problem of getting out on some

A Fiction Dies
In a few carefully chosen words,
the Supreme Court struck down a
legal fiction which had resulted in
the setting up of privileged class
among American taxpayers. For
nearly three-quarters of a century
the court had chung to the doctrine
that there was an implied consti-
tutional immunity which prevent
ed the Federal Government from
taxing salaries Of State employees
and the States from taxing the
incomes of Federal workers.
This doctrine had it's origin in
a statement by Chief Justice Mar
shall in his famous opinion in the
case of McCulloch VS.. Maryland
that 1.-THE power to tax involves
the power to destroy" This OBJ
servation found ready nourish-
ment in the lively jealousy with
which the Federal and State gov
ernments guarded their respective
perogatives, and from it sprang
the chain of decisions which car
ried the principle of reciprocal i'm
munity from oppressive taxation to
absurd lengths. The result was
that State, County and local NUM-
cipal employees were exempt from
the Federal Income Tax and Fed
eral employees were exempt from
State Income taxes. Thus the res
pective governments were denied
access to a substantial source of
revenue in return for judicial pro-
lection against a wholly fanciful
impairment of their sovereign
functions.
In overrulng the cases which
had established this immunity, the
court made it clear that it was not
opening the door to taxation of a
State or its agencies by the Federal
Government, or vice versa, which
would in fact cripple its legitimate
operations. Including as it does
that reservation, the opinion is
eminently sound and demonstrates
once again that it has been judi
cial interpretations and not the
Constitution itself which, from
time to time, have lent colcr to the
claim that that document is not
sufficiently elastic to meet the
needs of growing nation.

laxatives are: milk flush 1870 for
one day; molasses, one pint to five
gallons Of water.
Q. What is crazy chick disease?
A. In this condition the chicks
act crazy or locoed. The chicks
stagger, fall backward, or tip for
ward. Finally the chick falls over,
lies on it's side with legs extended
and head drawn backwards. There
may also be a trembling and shiv-
ering.
@. Is mycosis common in baby
chicks?
A. Mycosis Is quite common in
chicks after they are a week or ten
days of age.
Q. What causes cannibalism?
A. This habit is caused by over
crowding, improper feeding and ov-
erheating of the room. Sometimes
no specific cause can be found.
@. Is it safe to use I've as a dis
infectant?
A. Lye penetrates the wood and
other parts quite easily and it is
difficult to remove. AS a result
improper use of I've may cause
poisoning in baby chicks as well as
grown birds.
@. What is meant by the acute
type Of coccidiosis?
A. In the acute type the birds
become sick and die rapidly. The
droppings are usually bloody or wa
terry. The birds lose appetite rapid
ly and losses from death usually
start the day following the first ap-
pearance of blood in the droppings.
Q. What causes the sudden loss
es?
A. Death is largely due to loss
of blood. Birds become pale, they
refuse to eat, seem chilled, lose flesh
rapidly. Mustard-colored or Excess
sive droppings are also found in
coccidiosis.
@. What is meant by chronic
coccidiosis?
A. This Is type of coccidiosis
in which losses are not so rapid.
Birds become sick gradually. They
develop long beaks and sunken
eyes. There may be some cases of
paralysis. The birds go downhill
and do not seem to get any good
from their feed.
@. Is there another name for
this condition?
A. It Is also called the intestinal
form Of coccidiosis, or enteritis.
@. What does that mean?
A. It means that the main in
testine rather than the coca is af-
fected. In the intestinal form of
coccidiosis the damage is done
chiefly in the intestine just back of
the glZZafQ.
@. How Is this condition recog-
| nized?
A. BY the symptoms and post.
norton findings. When the bird
is opened the thickened, inflamed
intestine or the flecked condition OF
the intestinal lining indicates coo,
cidiosis.
@. Do the same species Of coc-
| cidia cause both the acute and the
chronic form?
A. No. There are six different
species of coccidia and each one
produces its own characteristic
chain of symptoms.
@. Can there be more than one
species of coccidia present in the
same flock at the same time?
A. Yes. Quite often that Is the
case, especially later in the season.

Daffodils, jonquils and narcissus
are cousins. OF course, you nave
recognized their resemblance to each
other, and perhaps you did ex-
perience a little difficulty in identi-
fying them when you first became
deeply interested in flowers for your
garden.
Budget your acquaintance with
flowers. There Is so much you miss
when you merely love them with
YOUR ewes and test their fragrance

as these are to be relied upon, you
are extending your knowledge and
piling up wealth, since we are as
sured that knowledge is power.
Most of us call sepaIs petals"
whether they are or not. There
are many parts to flowers, and once
you know them you also realize
how vital they are to the flower
and what part they play In its
success.
Look at your daffodil. The six
segments of the perianth, or what
you would call the three bright
colored sepals, and the three inner
petals of the daffodil are, as you
can readily see. different in shape.
But they do look like petals as
they flare out star-fashion, COM
pleting a circle around the spread
ing end of the blossoms tube
This tube, because of its shape,
has been named the crown or
corona. The crown is actually the
widened end of the tube. Peering
into the crown you will see the
long style with its three -lobed
stigma stretching out beyond the
anthers, which are snuggled tight
about it at the throat of the tube.
Now look colsely and you will see
that between each two antherS there
is space through which the long
tongues of the insects are inserted
to reach the nectar we'll beyond.
The seed-box or ovary of the pis-
til is indicated by a green knob
located at the base of the tube.
The marvelously packed seeds may

should be cut as soon as they open
