ng and a willingness was signified to.
help create local interest and support
a team if one was organiezd.

and: girls in Oregon, Washington,
}daho and Alaska have reived ]n-
structi0ns in home hygiene and care

both stories are fairly correct.

PORT DOCK AT ALLYN
Lee Baker. and H. H. Wesserling
were visitors from Allyn before the
,County Boat-d Monday with the pet-
ilion of the North Bay and Belfair
residents for a port district at Allyn.
As the new law does not come into
effect until June 17th it was decided
to defer the call for election and
other preliminaries until after that
date. The residents at that end of
the county believe that apubllc dock
would add much to the development
of that section and are willing to in-
corporate a port distrlct in order to
ca'ry the project through.

AFTER STATE ,LANDS
FOR FARM PURPOSES
A constantly increasing demand for
farm lands in this state is reported
by Land CommiSsioner C. V. Savidge,
who is now preparing for the July
sale of state lands.
"For the past two years the appli-
cations for purchase of state lands
have increased 50 per cent over the
total for any similar period," said Mr.
Savidge. "Whether due to demands
of immigrants or a genuine 'back to
the farm movement' we cannot de-
termine, but we know there never has
been a time when state agricultural
lands have been in as great demand.
Market conditions minimize the de-
mand for timber lands."
