They have secured their appoint

ular civi! s. rvice examination, which
is the only avenue to employment as
a forester under the government. In
addition to these graduates of forest
schools, 15 other candidates passed
the examination.
Twenty-two of the new appointees

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

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

Damages in the bum of $15,000 to
gether with the costs and disburse
ments of the uctlun are asked by Min
nie Schnassee, widow of. the late
Herman Schnassoe, who was killed
by being struck by an lnterurbun car,
August 6, a complaint having been
filed by Mrs. Schnassee, through her
attorneys, yesterday In the superior
court, says the Walla Walla Union.
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.

"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.

The disc Is attached to the caudal fin
