I'm going to give a copy of this ad to every salesman on the floor. :These salesmen may look downcast and shake their heads, wondering whether I'm working for or against the interests of the house.

MILLIONS OF FEET CUT LAST SEASON Idaho, Montana and Washington Practically Furnishing All ThU Grade of Lumber Now UtedIa of, Special Importance Commercially, (Wiihlnstr Boreas of The Journal.) Washington. Aug. T. Statistics for the flacal year just closed show that 115.68S.OO0 feet of white pine were cut In Idaho, Montana, and Washington. This Is not the white pine of eastern and northern states, but Is so much like It in general appearance and commer ' clal qualities that they are used Inter changeably. As Is well known, the easi ernjrfe pine supply Is very low, and lgsjllfpidly dwindling. For a long time fffaaa widely used for very many pur poues. and was exclusively used for others, until the supply fell short and something to take Its place was de manded. The nearest approach to It is the white pine of Idaho, which In most respects Is Its equal. This tree extends Into the adjacent regions of Montana, and Is found of commercial site, but In small quanti ties, scattered through the Olympic mountain forests of Washington, and on the western slopes -of the Washing ton and Oregon cascades, while a scat tered and Inferior growth Is met with southward along the Sierras In Califor nia. The suiDly of Idaho white pine. however, mav be expected to come mainly from fdaho and Montana. A universally useful timber is white pine. or this reason very special in terest is centered in the supply of white pine available In Idaho and Montana. The commercial pine timber of the United States Is drawn from two groups, white pines and pitch pines, the latter commonly caiiea yeiiow nines. Tha wood of the yelow pines is neavy and of dark reddish or yellow color. The wood of the white pines Is light In weight and in color. The two groups of pines may be dis tinguished bv their needles. All true white pines have needles In bundles of five. Longleaf yellow pine has needlos In bundles of three. The southern shortleaf yellow pine and Oreat Lake, red. or Norway pine have two-leaf bun dles. The so-called Arisona or south ern Rocky mountain white pine Is really a yellow pine, but with wood of such exceptionally light weight and colr, and of so excellent a quality that It serves In place of lighter species. SEKIOUS ACCIDENTS IN HARVEST FIELDS Bfaudesqne Mishap Results in Broken Jaw for John McNabb Thomaa Hatch Hurt in Runaway. (Special DUpttfta to The JtrarneL) Walla Walla, Wash., Aug. . 7. John McNabb, a young harvest hand, was brought to a 'hospital here yesterday suffering from a broken Jaw, received .at the Slmpklns ranch while hauling water for tha harvest crew. McNabb was driving a pair of young mules. While passing down a grade one of the tugs came down and McNabb climbed oft the wagon to fix It. While hooking the tug one of the mules Jumped, bringing the doubletree around on McNabb's Jaw with crushing force. McNabb was al most knocked senseless, but managed to make his way to town and have his Injuries attended to. One of his Jaw bones was badly splintered. Thomas Hatch, a farmer residing near Attalia, was brought to St. Mary's hospital yesterday suffering from se vere internal Injuries received In a runaway accident while harvesting on his place. A team that Hatch was driving became frightened and started to run. Hatch was thrown to the ground and received injuries about the body. Training for SangAfest. (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) Walla Walla, Wash., Aug. 7. Fully 76 members of the Walla Walla Maen nerchor club will attend the annual sangerfest to be held at Spokane begin ning August 29. Professor Olson has taken charge of the local singers. Re hearsals will be held four times a week All 1L. I. 1 " Summer Reading. We will take a few books with us, of course, to mountain or seaside, or when we plan the outing in the woods. What shall they be, and how shall we get the good out of them? One suggests that it is well to have a notebook into which one Jots the best of each au thor's thought and the cream of his argument This, necessarily pre-sup-poses that we Include among the sum mer books a few at least that are worth reading. Such a notebook may become valu able. There Is no doubt that many ,ef us have often had the best of our stories SDoiled bv bclnr unable to re call the exact wording of the quotation that we wished to use. and have-often sat dumb when the most pertinent sug gestion trembled on the tongue, but Just escaped. It Is of little use to cull other peo ple's thoughts If they do not Jump with your own. For this reason, a book of ready-made quotations Is of so little use. It has been made by some one else, and your own thoug . finds li stale and unprofitable. If you have the fileasuro of making the book yourself, t will have a real value. You will have the satisfaction and It Is a real one of having your own inner thought corrob orated by some one whom you know to ve a masier in nis own line, vague half-formed thoughts will become crys tallised as you find them expressed 'n the pages of some one else. In keep ing such a book, the suggestion Is also well made that one should not try to keep too much of the author simply to skim the cream of the argument, that the words may serve, not to bolster up one's own weak memory, but as a re vealment of the common thought. The memory may be cultivated instead of being weakened by the process If the words quoted are but the key. And then. In quoting, as one will. If these words have become a part of the mental furnishings of the mind which culled them, as one reads them over and absorbs them unconsciously, they will fit In with one's own mental output and not sound didactic and unreal. "I do not number my borrowings," said Montaigne. 'I weigh them; and had I desired to raise their value by their number, I had made them twice as many." It is worth while emphasizing, In this hurrying and -superficial age, as ap plied to reading, that one book carefully read, thought over and digested, is providing it Is worth reading In tho first place worth a dozen skimmed. The trouble with the skimming is that It weakens the memory and enfeebles the Intellect. Most of us have not much mentality to spare. Let us conserve what wo have by reading some sensible and valu able book In our vacation. The mind does not need absolute rest; It demand variety, but unless one Is extremely feeble, the tax of reading one good book will not be Injurious. If one wants an insight into wnat is worth cultivating: In one's self by the summer reading, take this thought of Emerson's. 'God has delivered yourself to your care, and says: I had no one fitter to trust than you. Preserve this person for me such as he is by nature; modest. beautiful, faithful, noble, tranquil."

Many agreeable hot weather salads may be made by adding ingredients to a fondant of gelatine, preferably lemon flavored, as that combines well with other vegetables and fruits. One can scarcely go amiss in this sort of salad making, since fruits, nuts and vegetables may be pleasantly mingled, and for one who, like Elizabeth In her ?arden, can dine satisfactorily on salad or six weeks continuously, all sorts of variations may be obtained without los ing the piquancy of this favorite dish. Try one day, for instance, after hav ing made the lemon Jelly and allow ing It to become partially hardened, the addition of sliced tomatoes. The next time you use the Jelly foundation add bits of celery, olives and apple. Such a Jelly foundation may he tastefully used in grape fruit baskets or In halved orange cups. H tVt For the Housekeeper. A delicious Icing for cake is made with fresh berries. Crush a cupful of the fruit, turn over it a third of a cup ful ef sugar and let it stand an hour or two. Then press 'the berries through a sieve, add a tablespoonful of lemon Juice and confectioner's sugar enough to make a frosting thick enough to spread and remain on the cake. A favorite dish in a French family consists of Spanish mackerel served with young leeks. The leeks, with their leaves on, are boiled for half an hour In salted water and a tablespoonful of butter. Meanwhile a Spanish mackerel that has been split down the back is seasoned inside and out with salt and pepper, folded and brushed thoroughly with melted butter and broiled for ten minutes on each side. The fish Is served in the middle of the platter with the leeks arranged around it and accom panied by a rich cream sauce seasoned with parsley and lemon Juice. A person who has traveled in tropical countries says that the fruit salads of such places far outdistance the ones made here. One of the chief differ ences lies in the mixing of the ingre dients of the salads. Where such dishes are reduced to an art the fruits are sliced and arranged in successive layers, the Juiciest kinds at the top, so that they will permeate those below them. Sugar is sprinkled over each layer. Pears, peaches, bananas, oranges, ap ples, pineapple, etc., sliced thin, may all contribute to delicious mixtures. They snould be allowed to stand on ice two or three hours before serving. Some of the blends are delicious served with cream. A Tree Oar Bid. Take Rose City Park car and get off at O.
