They have secured their appoint ments as a result of passing the reg ular civi! s. rvice examination, which is the only avenue to employment as a forester under the government.

All Ilave Training. Forest assistants are men who have compl'-t-d their preliminary training for the profession of forestry, as the tr i ln;iT( s of a law or medical school have completed theirs, and are ready to enter on practical work. Until tt.ey have gained experience in their work, however, their positions - are necessarily subordinate. They are at the foot of the ladder, and must prove their fitness in order to mount higher. The government pays them $1000 a year at the start On the national forests the forest assistant often acts as adviser to the supervisors In charge, who are wes tern men experienced In all practical matters, but usually without school training in the selence of forestry, Or they may be 'assigned to the study of some particular problem which neds to be investigated In the Interest of good forest management As forestry means knowing how to get the most out of any given piece of land, It calls for studies and experi ments, both scientific and practical, much like those which have to be made In the Interest of good farm management, and the forest assist ant Is prepared to do valuable work along this line. There Is a growing Interest In the profeRBion of forestry now, and many young men are asking how to get In to it and what It promises. Glfford Plnchot, the government forester, has lately written on this subject: "To be a good forester a man be crossing the foot bridge.

The complaint alleges that for a long time past the Walla Walla Val ey Traction company, against whom the action has been started, has know ingly permitted pedestrians to use the track and the right of way; that on August S, about 6:50 p. m., Herman Schnassee was walking in a southerly direction along the track, as was the custom, when ho was run down and struck by a car going In a southerly direction, which was traveling at a speed of fully 20 miles an hour; that the track was unobstructed and the agents of the company In charge of the car could see the man, but that no attempt was made to stop the car, no signal was given, warning him of the approach of the car, and that he was run down and killed Instantly In utter disregard of human life. The complaint further alleges that Mr. Schnasse was a sober, Industrious and competent farmer, capable of earning $600 per annum; that by rea son of the carelessness of the com pany or its iieiits the plaintiffs have lost the earnings ana accumulations and are deprived of his advice and consul. On this account plaintiffs ask $15,000 damages and tile costs and disbursements of the action. Tho complaint was made by Minnie Schnassee, who has been appointed guardian ad litem of the three minor children, Lydia, aged 16; Edison, aged H, and Arthur, aged 12 years. The filing of the complaint yester day morning came as a surprise, as the coroner's Jury exonerated the mo torman from blame of the accident. Capital, Surplus and Undivided Profits - 300,000.??

"For several years fruit growing was on the decline throughout the state," Mr. Huntley went on to say, "but this year I find that the Industry Is on the boom, due, no doubt, to the conscientious efforts which the fruit growers of Washington are putting forth In combatting pests so deadly destructive to the various fruits. "Walla Walla fruitgrowers are to be found among the leaders In this work, and I think that they will be amply repaid for their trouble by the Increase In crops which they will se cure, not only this year, but In fu ture years."
