CHEHALIB. WASHINGTON THE GHEHAI4S BEE-NUGGET. FRIDAY, JUNE 3, 1927. PAQB AH Southwest Will Join In Big Centralia Dance Southwest Washington, noted for its big-hearted people, will give further expression to this spirit of cheer Thursday night, June 9, when citizens will unite in staging a benefit dance that is expected to surpass any like function ever promoted in this section. Fifteen hundred couples will gather on that night in the Maple street auditorium at Centralia to express admiration for a remarkably brave lad, to put out the hand of good fellowship and lend their aid in this gallant battle to completely rout the Grim Reaper.

Harry Smith, a graduate of the Winlock high school, is the lad to be given this testimonial of affection by the people of Southwest Washington. While residing at Centralia, Harry Smith met with an accident at Tenino. The steering apparatus of his small automobile went wrong; the car went down a 35-foot embankment, and Smith was crushed, suffering a broken back, and the spinal cord was severed. This was thirteen months ago, and now, after more than 400 days on his back in a hospital cot, Harry Smith smiles in because the accident has revealed that this old world is chockfull of good folks who admire the fighter. Harry Smith has made legions of friends during his many months of fighting against huge obstacles, and these friends are arranging lor "Harry's Benefit Dance," by which $1500 at least will be raised to aid the youth in his struggle.

George L. Earner, mayor of Centralia, is the general chairman, and assisting him are: Dr. Ned E. Brown of Centralia; Howard Black, president of the Centralia Activians; Reid Conrad, president of the Centralia Chamfer 01 Commerce; George D. Goodrich of Hoquiam, Harold Olson of Aberdeen, W.

P. Armour of Montesano, Geo. L. Sears of Chehalis, Max Atlason, fire chief of Winlock, and Tom Rickards, mayor of Tenino. Music for the dance will be provided by four orchestras, each' of which is donating its services for the occasion.

Hugh Miller's Chesterfields, Al Otis' Pirates, Earl Kilborn's lugleside Gardefi orchestra from George Mills' 10- piece band of Centralia, will bring gaiety to the occasion. With these four groups of musicians furnishing the latest of dance music, a new record in dance music features will be established. Ricky Bras' famous male quartet, composed of Seattle and Centralia singers, will be on hand and contribute a group of numbers for the program, and other specialties are being arranged. Harry Smith Is now a patient at the Nugent hospital, on the highway between Centralia and Chehalis, and, scores of his friends are taking advantage of the opportunity to visit him when in that vicinity. He maintains his cheerful disposition at all times and is delighted when the monotony of hospital routine is broken by the visit of friends.

Two Thurtton county llreatock owners nave been haled into court for refusing to permit a state veterinary innpector to apply the tuberculosis test to their cattle. A test case will be made. Thurston county is one of the first that signed up lor the county-wide test and the chances are that before the Yelm men are through with it their cattle will be properly tested. Mushroom season is here and from Portland way comes a story of four people being poisoned from eating toadstools which were picked by mistake One woman was reported in a critical condftion. Extreme care should be used in picking mushrooms.

None but those absolutely sure of which is which should attempt to gather these toothsome offerings of Nature. When the owner of a garage for horses undertook to shoe a refractory bronco last week in Skagit county the brute tramped the smithy and landed him in the hospital. The horse possibly decided that since his tribe has been so nearly discarded for farm uses that an attempt to apply the shoes was immaterial, irrelevant and incompetent, as the law sharks would say In court. Due to the continued rains all over western Washington during the month just ended, aphis have flourished as they have not for a immbei of years. The cloudy, wet weather has been all in favor of the pesky bugs.

District Horticulturist Geo. T. McFarland or County Agent F. D. Yeager of Chehalis will be pleased to advise any farmers who need advice as to how to successfully combat them.

Businessmen of Woodland, ever alert, are now starting a movement to secure the location at that growing poultry center of a branch station of the Washington Co-operative Egg Poultry Association. Banker L. N. Plamondon in discussing the subject, aptly remarks: "I am favorable to the proposition. The future of this country is not tied up in 200- acre farms; it is tied up in five- and tun-acre men." Farmers of Willapa valley will hold their annual fair September 30 and October 1.

Unlike many local fair organizations the Willapa folks have a cash balance of 5459.19 with which to begin business for their next fall fair. they will be able to realize from the berries, although of course they are. justified in for all they can get. Having grown the crop, which promises to be a good one, their chief should be to harvest it In the beat shape possible and get all the tonnage their fields will bear. Then market where they are sure to get the for it.

A country school boy is reported to have recently turned in the following essay on "The GoaL" He-wrote as "A goat is about as big as a sheep if the sheep is big enough. A female goat is called, a buttress; a little goat is called a goatee. Goats are very useful for eating up things. A goat will eat up more things than any animal that ain't a goat. My father had a goat once.

My father is an awful good man. Everything he says is so, even if it ain't so. That is all I know about goats." A farmer in Snohomish county who, was engaged in clearing land fell onto an axe and cut his head very badjy. Hop contracts'for 1927 are being made on a basis of 19 and 20 cents per pound. Many acres have been already bargained for in the Yakima district at.that price.

Spot hops are moving 23 cents and it is reported that California has 700 bales of old hops on Jiand. Recently a representative of Japanese dairymen, visited the Puget Sound district and bought a considerable number of the highest producing purebred animals that he could find. The cattle were' purchased for the breeders' association at Hokki- ado, Japan, and were Holsteins. Attentjon of readers of this column is called to the wonderful record made by Henry Bouchard's great purebred Holstein cow, Linden Clara Pasma. On official test in 365 days this wonderful animal produced 1072.31 pounds of butterfat from 28,541 ppunds of milk, with an average test of 3.76.

A more extended report of the test will be found in another column of this paper. Especially is this an outstanding record when is considered that Linden began this test when she was 11 years, 1 month and 3 days old. Mr. Bouchard is to be congratulated for the record he has made and the fact that he owns such a cow. Incidentally, Mr.

Bouchard and other Lewis county Holstein breeders will get a great amount of highly favorable publicity from the record made. Cow testing work has increased in Whatcom county in an effective way, and that county is rated as leading in dairying in the state. In 1923, when the county testing association was organized, it had 107 members with 1200 cows. This year 215 dairymen are members and more than 2000 cows are on test. Since the association was formed more than 600 cows have found their way to the butcher after it was that they were unprofitable to keep.

In addition to this 35 purebred sires have been added to the herds of members and those who are testing find it well worth while. Mrs. H. T. Clippinger and Agnes.

Judd motored to Seaview over the week-end. Mr. reported a small crowd at the beach, to the poor weather of the past' few but the roads are in goo'cl condition. At an auction sale last week in Clark county the sale of a grade Jer- sly for is reported. Fifteen cows sold averaged each.

Wherever auction sales of good dairy cattle have been held within the past 1'ew months we have noticed a material advance in prices as compared with a year or two ago, which would indicate that the dairy business is getting onto a worth-while basis where those engaging in it are looking more and more to keep cows that are of the producing kind. Strawberry growers of the Rochester district are planning to perfect an organization of their own. The fact that this season the price of bar- reled berries shows a downward tendency and those engaged in bar- reling find it impossible to pay iaore than 6 cents a pound for hulled berries, which is two cents lower than in recent years, has had the effect of causing some unrest and the belief that the i is worth more. The probabilities are that before the growers are through with it they will 1 find that the price offered is all that Washington Holstein breeders were represented at their national meeting at Springfield, this week by Alfred M. Ghormley of Carnation and Harold Stimson of Hollywood.

Ed Hoen of Snohomish and Wm. Bishop of Chimacum have been elected directors of the state association due to an error made by the nomination committee at the recent annual meeting held at Auburn. ONES, ID. LEFT HT Mossyrock, May 31. Decoration day was' quietly observed here.
