:SEEING WASHINGTON
IN THREE WEEKS' TRIP
IN FAITHFUL LIZZIE
'SHELTON PEOPLE HAVE INTER-
ESTING JAUNT AND VISIT
OLD FRIENDS
Mr. and Mrs. Cole Leisure and Mrs.
Laura Hartman returned Saturday
from a trip "around the block,"
which began August 25th and occu-
pied three weeks. They took their
time-camping by the way or spend-
ing a day or so with former Shelton-
item they ]net in various cities. The
objective point was Weiser, Idaho, to
visit nieces of Mr. Leisure, but the
trip ci'cled the state and included
many points of interest. Mrs. Hart-
man secured a large collection of
pictures along the way, and also took
notes which will be of interest to
Journal readers:
"Leaving on the morning of Au-
gust 25th, we took dinner at W. N.
Bennett's near the Nisqually bridge,
and camped in the auto camping
grounds at Auburn that night after
passing fine farms and vegetable
gardens during the afternoon.
Through Blewett Pass.
"Stayed in Cle glum the second
night. 'Old Batch' camped by us ac-
cused Mrs. Leisure of bringing her
"rubbers, raincoat an umbrella' along.
Beautiful camping ground.
"Went through Snoqualmie and
Blewett Passes. Went through Blew-
eft at our own risk. Two days after
an auto with five people went over
the cliff leaving nothing to pick up
after them, an elevation of about
2070 feet. Then the pass was closed
to travellers. On the Eastern slope
of Blewett Lizzie simply refused to
plow through a fill of two feet of
coarse, loose gravel without a new
tire and she was hot. Reached We-
natchee the 28th and staed three
days with the Berkeleys, former resi-
tents in Shelton, leaving here for
Montana, where they were pursued
with hard luck for several years, till
finally they rented their farm and
pulled out, settling in Wenatchee,
where Mr. Berkeley has a barber's
shop and Winston, the oldest boy,
is at the head of the Wenatchee
water filter plant, and gets $150 a
month with promise of a raise. We-
natchee is certainly the lad of or-
chards. Cashmere is also a great
fruit shipping place.
Three Threshers Burn.
"Went through the Big Bend coun-
try. Big rolling hills, covered with
wheat fields to the skyline on every
side with once in a while a little
hamlet squeezed in an odd corner
where falTners lived, with picture
show, store, post office, garage, and
warehouses. No monopolist need ap-
ply. In most of the fields they were
cutting, threshing, sacking and dump-
ing the sacks of grain along in rows

after the machines. Don't know if
they went around the world or not;
anyway they went out of sight on
the sky line, 25 to 80 horses hitched
to the machines. Three thrashers
burned up that we heard ,of.
"Went through Coulee City, saw
the canyon; camped in Wilbur all
night. About as barren and rocky
a country as Coulee. Ate dinner at
Deep Creek. Came through Daven-
port; visited the Medical Lake School
and Insane Asylum. Wouldfi't keep
us there because they were all full
and 100 anplications ahead of us.
We 'mosied' on to Spokane, visited
Mrs. Larsen and her daughter, Mrs.
Dion's sister. They are interested
in a pottery there, and we got some
beautiful pictures of the place. Then
hit the trail for Steptoe, a great In-
dian battle ground. Went past an
orchard of 1000 acres of just three
varieties of apples, Jonathaus, Wag-
hers, and Rome Beauties, with their
own packing and warehouses.
"We then went through Colfax;
horrible hills--had to pack our traps
up one hill on our backs. But that
was the only place Lizzie balked on
the whole route.
Follow Oregon Trail
"Staved in Walla Walla camping
ground:q over night. From Waitshurg
on, the rest of the trip Mrs. Har:tman
had traveled 40 years ago over the
Oregon trail with her parents from
Kansas to Washington in the Wash-
ington Colony. Then the hills were
covered with sagebrush and Indians.
Now there are big cities and the
desert is made to blossom as the
rose'.
"Got to Pendleton just as the train
was pulling out for Weiser, Idaho.
Lizzie wds again acting up, so we
stored her and took the train, not
having time to wash our dirty faces.
When we got almost to LaGrand, the
train, with two engines got stalled,
and whistled for help. we began to

Genuine Common Sense
Many Ford owners can afford to own and operate any car they
may choose, but they prefer a Ford "because it is a Ford."
For ,'because it is a Ford" means dependability, ease of opera:
fion, efficiency--and it means sure, quick transportation.
And "because it is a Ford" means good taste, pride of ownership
and genuine Common Sense.
The Ford Sedan, a closed car of distinction, beauty and conveni-
ence, is the ideal all year 'round car,, for pleasure or business--
for the farm, town or city. It gives you all that any car can give
at a much lower cost for operation and maintenance.
Ford Cars of all types are in great demand, so place your order
at once if you wish to avoid delay in delivery.

By County Agriculturist H. E. Drew
,. ....................... _----o UNITED DOCTORS
FALL GRAIN CROPS
M. E. McCollan, Agronomist, West-
ern Washington Experiment
Station.
From the standpoint of yield the
most satisfactory grain crop for fall
seeding is wheat. The past season
lms been very favorable for fall
grain, antl much higher yiehls o:f
wheat in particular, were obtained
on the Station's upland, than last
year.
The varieties which threshed out
best were Brown Squarehead, Red
Russian and Triplet. These wheats
are true winter varieties, and can
be depemted on to withstand our
most severe weather. The Brown
Squarehead wheat demonstrated its
ability to yiehl this year, when "m
upland field produced 571/' bushels
per acre. The field had produced a
crop of fiehl peas before the wheat.
Mention of the following items may
be helpful in raising a crop of winter
whe at:
Variety.--Tme winter varieties
should be planted. Spring x.heats,
while they may come through the
winter without injury, do not yiedl
as well as winter' wheats.
Time of Seeding.--Mid October
seeding will give very good results.
Mixtures of wheat and vetch may be
sown earlier depending on the pur-
pose for which the crop is used.
Rate of Sceding.Medium rates of
seeding have always proven best,
that is, 2 bushels per acre. When
the crop is used as'a nurse crop for
clover and grass a lighter rate of
seeding, such 1Vz bushels per acre,
is advisable.
Seeding Down to Grass.It may
be desired to seed down a crop of
winter wheat to clover and grass.
This, of course, will be done the fol-
lowing Feb]ary or March. The
grass seed is sown broadcast when
the ground is frost-heaved. This
eliminates the necessity of harrowing
in the seed. When harrowing is
necessary to cover the grass seed,
an adjustable spike tooth harrow
with the teeth set backwards, is
used. This will not injure the grain,
nor cover the seed too deeply.
Besides its uses as a seed crop or
for feed, fall wheat may be mixed
with vetch and seeded for various
purposes such as a cover or green
manure 'crop, green feed, and Silage.
Rosen Rye has proven to be an
excel4ent variety of rye for fall seed-
ing west of the mountains. This
year a crop of Rosen Rye after field
peas yiehlcd 49 bushels per acre on
uphmd.
The White Winter variety of barley
has been quite successful as a fall
crop, and the Gray Winter oat is in
most favor as a variety of eats for
fall seeding. Neither yieht a' well
as the spring varieties of these
grains.
BEEKEEPERS FACE SERIOUS
PROBLEM
Will 'Lose Bees If Action Isn't Taken
to Fight Disease.
Beekeepers are facing a very seri-
ous problem in the State of "Wash-
ington, for disease is running ramp-
over the state. On the coast the
erican and European foulbroods
are in full swing.
Much trouble comes flom the small
beekeepers who do not recognize
these diseases and let them have their
own way. The American foulbrood
is caused by bacteria. This germ is
hard to kill, as experiments have
been conducted which show that after
40"years it is still alive. The spore
of the bacteria is cm-zied in the honey
or upon old combs, which makes it
dangerous to expose diseased combs
or old combs where the bees can
reach them. The disease attacks the
larvae about two clays before the
cells are capped, but the larvae are
capped over before they (tie. The
capping starts to sink and a small
pin hole appears. The larvae, when
affected, changes to a light brown,
becomes darker and finally melts
(lown into a black scale, which lies l
along the bottom of the cell. When
a comb or hive becomes badly af-
fected it has a disagreeable odor.
In the European foulbroed the dis-
ease is not so hard to get rid (if, for
the germ does not bear spores. This
disease attacks the larvae when four
or five day ohl and they generally
die before being capped over. In
appearance, the larvae turn watery
white, then yellow and later a darker
i brown. When affected they curl up
in the bottom of the cells and dry
up. This disease spreads rapidly
and at times takes entire apiaries in
one season. Like the American it
does not attack the adult bee.
HOME TO ROOST
Claude Kitchin writes his fellow
democrats in the house that "pro-
fiteermg" corporations" .filled. ,, their
"coffers with fabulous bflhons dur-
ing the world war. If so they did
it under lemocratic laws and demo-
cratic administration of these laws.
And the democratic party came to
power pledged to pul;¢erize the plu-
tocrats and parah, ze the Drofiteers.
If there was under the Wilson ad-
ministration more than profiteering,
more exploitation of the consuming
public and more speculative manip-
ulation than (luring any other period
in American bistory,--and everybody
-agrees there was,--that is not some-
thing a democratic statesman ought
to remind the country about in view
of "the fact that his party get into
power on a definite pledge to stop
everything of that kind.

THREE WEEKS' AUTO TRIP
think we wouht have to go back and
get Liz to pull them through the
Blue Mountains.
"Stayed nine days with Mr. Leis-
ure's nieces on Man's Creek, 17 miles
north of Weiser. Just had the time
of our lives. It is an alfalfa coun-
try; water and muskmelons, grapes,
peaches whortleberries and every-
thing we have here except wood,
rain and fleas. Had one dust storm
and one evening of heat lightning,
no rain.
"Went back to We)set Sept. 12th.
Ate dinner in 'Old Oregon Trail'
camp grounds. Grand place, theatre
in grounds could seat 1000 persons,
also large wheat elevators where 40
years ago was nothing but the old
Snake River and the Plains.
"Took the train back to Pendleton
over the U. P. R. R. through Uma-
tilla Canyon, went throu'gh pleasant
valley, Baker City, LaGrand, Hunt-
ington and Hot Lake which we could
:see steaming in the moonlight.
"Got to Pendleton 11 p. m. Would
like to have taken in the Round-up
on the 22nd, but Liz had had a rest
and gotten over her cantankerous
way and so we started for Umatilla.
Cooked our dinner there in the deep
sand and lava rocks, then camped for l
the night in Arlington, prettiest lit-
tle village we had seen on our way
with 'Church of the Nazarene' near
camping grounds. Took pictures of
Deschutes River, rapids and tunnel,
near Biggs, Oregon, camps at Dalles,
rapids at Cascade Lo'cks, and White
Salmon, from Hood River. The Col-
umbia highway was one grand trans-
formation to the year 1880. The
Vista House, almost the highest point
of the highway, is a wonder.
"Ate dinner in Portland's Pacific
Highway camp, which is an ideal
outdoor'place. Then came across big
bridge over Columbia River, staye(!
all night in Kalama camp. ome o
the Arlington campers were there.
Said they were making moving pic-
tures in creek near White Salmon
!as they came along. Crossed the
Lewis and Cowlitz rivers; fine farm
lands, fine timber and nice road be-
tween Kelso and Toledo. Ate dinner
in dandy camp at Centralia and took
picture of old Seatco blockhouse.
South of Chehalis are the finest
farms and most substantial farm
builldings we lald eyes on in our
travels.
',Stopped in Buc0da to see Preacher
Johnson and wife, who teach there,
but have their home on the Skoko-
mish River. Came from Kalama to
Eid Inlet, stayed with Mr. and Mrs.
Clelland Cruson all night, then Lizzie
came home with a 'bing,' Saturday,
Sept. 17th, all safe and sound.
