HEW ERA FOR THE WEST TFMI'E.-S*VI00G MACHINERY
The Value of labor-saving machin-
ery for farm work is fairly well
understood in these days, and most
farmers are solving the help prob-
lem by installing such aids, but the
Country Gentlemen cites one instance
in which the installation of labor-
saving machiery in the house .as aSell
had such a beneficial effect upon the
farm wife's cooking and temper that
no further difficulty was found in
getting the hired man to stay. Be-
fore this improvement in her house-
hold equipment the wife had been so
grossly overburdened that a natural
outlet for her frayed nerves and ex-
hausted body had been slatternly
cooking, and a tongue so shrewish
that no help could be kept. In con-
nection with the story the Country
Gentleman has these further sug-
gestions to make:
"We think the strike business has
been largely overdone, but we are
not sure. but what these farm house-
WORLD'S LARGEST
FIR LOG CUT HERE
FOURTEEN FOOT TREE FEULED
AT OLD CAMP FIVE
IN 1904
Hoquiam, June 18--A spruce log,
hehl to be the largest in the worhl,
cut near Montesano by the Wvnooc.he !
Timber company, of tbis city, has
bec'n turned over to the Hoquimn
Commercial Club to be preserved for
all time as a souvenir of the forests
of Grays Harbor county.
The log, which bas an approximate
value of $800, is 12 £c'et 6 inches in
diameter at the butt, 28 feet long,
has a solid core throughout and con-
tains 19,600 feet of fine spruce lum-
ber. A section of the log one foot
wide was sawe off yesterday by
members of the Grays Harbor Shrin-
ers' club who will exhibit it at the
'convention in Portland next week.
It is proposed by members of the
Commercial club to erect this huge
log at the foot of Eighth street, near
the bridge. The stump to be set on
a concrete base and a 20-foot section
of tree fastened to the stum.n, with
signs giving the dimensions and other
interesting information about it.

is informed that it was approved by
the president a weel ago hy the
mews was withheld from the country
is not disclosed, but there is no lon.
er any secret about the reasons for
re'considering the "pocket veto." That
the impoant measure was resurrect-
ed was due largely to the efforts of
Senator Wesley L. J.ones, who suc-
ceeded in obtaining the approval of
the secretary of the interior, Johfl
Barton Payng, and the ruling of the
attorney general that bills remaining
in the hands of the president aft;er
the adjournment of congress are not
necessarily dead.
The attorney general found upon
examination of the record that the
adjournment of congress does not (le-
prive the executive of the constitu-
tional period of ten days for the con-
sideration (if bills. It has loop' been
the custom to consilor bills remain-
ing nnsigncd in the ban<Is of the
president whc'n conLq'es adjourns a.
disapprove(I. Since the president
need only retain the bills without
approval'or disapproval that fern1
of veto is known as the "pocket
veto." Thanl<s to S,mator Jones, a
way was found to extric.ate tim water
power bill from ils unfortunate posi-
tion, saya the P.-I.

government (,fforts of the l)emeeratic
party to frame and pass a satisfac-
tory bill failed. It was only at lhe
last session wbt.n the extreme(con-
servationists and those who believed
that the power resources should be
controlled by the various states fouml
a common 'grmmd npon which they
couht meet..A plan was devised by
which power companies could lease
sites for periods of fifty years, pay-
ing the government a royalty but
never acquiring complete title to the
property. At the end of fifty years
the government has the option of
taking over the vower plants by pay-
tngton, "Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Cal-
ifornia, Utah Nevada and Arizonia,
and it was in this part of the country
that the plan to unlock the great
natural resources was hailed With joy.
Many millions of dollars waited upon
• the news from the White House for
investment in power projects. In
this state, which is particularly fav-
ored in the possession of mountain
etreams, the measure was expected
to open a new era of progress and
prosperity. The disappointment at
the reported failure Of the bill to
recdve executive approval was wide-
spread. "
The enactment of the water power
law was aft achievement of the Sixty-
sixth congress which will be long
remembered. ,In the industrial and
commercial development of the West
it marks the beginning of a new
epoch. This pm of the country,
which has so smaR a portion of the
country's supply of coal' and so much
pyOtential energy in its streams, short-
will come into its own.
.REPUBLICAN OAND1DATE
FOR PRESIDENT POPULAR
The Journal has received from its
¢ld fend and former resident of
Mason County, a copy of the Daily
Star, of Marion, Ohio, the newspaper
owned by Senator Warren G. Hard-
ing, Republican candidate for pres-
ident. The paper is evidently a strong
small city dully ,in a thrifty section,
and it represents the life work of the
owner until he graduated ito polit-
ical life. Mr. Speece sums uD his
opinion of the presidential candidate
as a "mighty nice man," and popular
with the people wherever known:
Speaking of crops in Ohio Mr.
Speeee adls that they have had a
laretty fair season so far, with hay
short and oats and eorn looking fine.
All the family are well and wish to
be remembered to old Mason County
friends.
REDUCING PRICES
must know by this time
that last week's alarms and excur-
sions did not reduce the cost of liv-
ing by either the well4mown jot or
the proverbial title. You, cannot go
from one priee level to another by
the pleasant wave Of a wand; de-
flating the currency is a long job, a
hard job; and one accompanied by
many disagrseable symptoms. When
it begins we will all know it. In the
meantime the production of goods is
no greater--is slackened, if anything,
--while the consumption, already at
too high a point, • was much increased
by the. monetary sla'ekenlng of prices.

SERVICE
Whether you need hosiery to withstand the strain of
strenuous outdoor wear or to add to the charm of an
evening costume, try wearing the Burlington New Fash-
ioned Hosiery. It is always trim and stylish because it
fits so perfectly and has no unsightly seam at the back.
It is knitted to the shap.e of the foot and leg, not stretch-
ed or cut to fit. The double thick sole, reinforced toe and
high spliced heel and an unusual elasticity, give them
exceptional durability and comfort. We have them in
white, black and brown.
