Mayor Irving l.. (Roy) McCath-

Saturday by the voters of Wash
ington Grove. He received 70 votes
for mayor while five opponents re-
ceived one written vote each.
There aren't any voters in Wash
ington Grove who can remember
any other mayor-there hasn't been
one. Mayor McCathran has been
elected annually ever since the
charter was granted in 1897 Ess
The mayor accepts his election
pretty calmly-after all it is an
annual event in the 80 year old
community. The town started as a
Methodist camp meeting and grew
gradually until in 1887 it was in

adult choir, under the direction of
Mrs. Vernon Westfall, meets on

The name Larkspur calls forth
the idea of beauty and of death to
many persons. Those who have
seen fields blue with some species
can never wipe from their minds
that all larkspurs should be blue.
In spite of this, some are yellow,
some red and some white. Our
Slim Larkspur is orthodox in the
matter of color, however, and is a
deep violet purple so far as the
flowers are concerned.
In part because the Slim Lark
spnur rarely grows to height
greater than a foot it is often
spoken of as the Dwarf Larkspur.
Certainly it is much shorter than
most of its better known relatives.
This shortness does not limit the
plant so far as coloring field or
meadow may be concerned because
sometimes this species seems to
take over whole field. When this
is the case, cattlemen do not like it
because like many other larkspurs
the Dwarf Larkspur or Slim Lark
spur may be poisonous to cattle.
The poisonous properties are most
effective when the plant is newly
developing its shoots that spring

from perennial underground parts.
The Slim Larkspur is at its best
at the edges of meadows or in open
forests of cone-bearing trees. 1t
ranges through the mountains of
eastern Washington to northern
California and east into Alberta,
Idaho, Montana and Nevada. 1t
was first described from a plant
collected in the Blue Mountains of
eastern Oregon, which region is
considered by botanists as being
the type locality"
In spite of the obvious beauty of
the flowers the Slim Larkspur has
not won enough favor among those
who cultivate wild flowers for it to
be listed as a cultivated plant.
Like all the larkspurs the Slim
Larkspur is a member of the But
tercup or Crowfoot Family. The
flowers are much more elaborate
than one would expect of a butter
cup. In the Slim Larkspur there
are usually from 2 to s flowers in
loose cluusters. There is slender
curved spur about Y inch long and
the upper petals are notched. The
fruits are about 1a-inch long, near
ly straight and somewhat sticky.
The seeds bear conspicuous white
wings on their angles.
The leaves are relatively few to
each plant, from to 2 inches wide,
5-parted, with the main leaf-divis-
ions composed of 2 or 8 rather OBJ
long lobes. The leaves borne on
the upper parts of the stem are
much smaller than those borne
from the base.
Botanists have argued over
whether there may be variety of
the regular species but at present
this division does not appear to be
considered as valid. While the
botanists argue about the classifi-
cation of the plant, the ranchers
