THE MASON COUNTY JOY/RNAL WHAT&apos;S THE DIFFERENCE-- WE'RE GONNA GET' STUCK EITHER--'] €/ :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 f. J. RYAN R, P.

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 FcS-fitTfi'd ifi" h-SiuiT-m-VffFf -- ii i i ii r " i i 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. Wallace Johnson Motor Company " ...... Shelton, Wash. ....... z PAG TISEN i ' Agricultural News I[ CONING TO OLYFIPIA 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.

"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. L. B. Hartman. No. 1713.
