SERIOUS FACTS
XX71IEN we mortals turn from the
beaten track and find that we
are at a place where we must pause
and meditate up' i; the serious facts
confronting us, wt are frequently in
clined to become ill-humored and il
loglcai. A sort of mental strabismus dark
ens our vision and numbs our bodies,
caused In a large measure by our dis
inclination to touch upon anything of
a serious nature. We dislike to go
afield among the dark shadows where
the ghosts of the past are lurking.
The open sunshine is alwnys prefer
able for the reason that it dissipates
doubt nnd permits us to see clearly
without effort.
Indeed, the great majority of our
relatives, and ourselves included, pre
fer the frivolous to the profound. We
incline to touch lightly, to grasping
with all our strength.
We full at once into the st;;!e of the
school boy when the trees are budding
and the air is soft and warm. He
tosses a dependable coin to decide
whether he shall take his place in
the classroom among serious teachers,
and still more serious books.
He returns home at night with a
string of fish, a new freckle or two,
and goes early to bed, brooding over
the seriousness of his plight. He
will remember for life when he is
told on the morrow that It is the seri
ous men and women who do things.
He will tell you that had Sir Isaac
Newton not been the serious-minded
man he was, the fall of an apple would
not have revealed to him the law of
gravitation.
What the thoughtless term "good
luck," If you will look into the mat
ter deeply, may be traced to serious
thought. You may con your Greek
verbs, or piny hide and seek with
your Latin, but if you are not really
serious in your studies you can never
muster them.
To move forward day by day In
your sphere of endeavor requires the
quality of seriousness that made Wash
ington so dearly beloved by his armies,
and gave to Lincoln an enduring name.
To the serious-minded, earnest per
sons, the world is indebted for Its
greatest Inventions and loftiest
achievements.
We want a little more seriousness
in our work, and decidedly less dejec
tion, and when we get it, paradoxical
though It may seem, we shall be more
cheerful and infinitely happier.

Livestock. Warning Out.
Olynipia, Wash. Possibility of a
wholesale quarantine against ship
ments of livestock into the state o
Washington loom larger by reason of
notification received by the state agri
cultural department from Washington,
D. Ci that the dread "foot and mouth"
disease had made its appearance in
Alameda county, California.
The telegraph message came to
State Veterinarian Pelton, from Dr.
J. R. Mohler, chief of the bureau of
animal industry, Washington, D. C,
urging every precaution and asking
for report of any suspicious disease
among livestock. Word was also re
ceived by Dr. James C. Exline, in
charge of the federal bureau of ani
mal industry for the state, stating
that the disease was sprendinsr. A
general alarm was evidently being
sent throughout the western states.
Both Dr. Pelton and Dr. Exline were
much exercised at the disturbing news
and they left for Portland for confer
ence with Dr. Lytle, state veterinarian
f Oregon, as to precautionary meas
ures to be taken by Washington and
Oregon.
If necessary, said Dr. Pelton, the
department would go to practically
any extreme to keep the disease from
getting a foothold in this state.
The foot and mouth disease, states
Dr. Pelton, is the worst scourage
known to domestic animals, being
highly infectious and contagious, ab
solutely incurable and attacking not
only horses and cattle, but also sheep
and swine. Diseased or Infected stock
must he immediately killed and great
care taken in the destruction of the
carcass and for completo disinfection
of all surroundings.
Just what steps will he taken in
this instance cannot be known, Dr.
Pelton stated, until further word is
received as to the extent and origin
of the disease in Alameda county,
which will probably be known in a
day or two. If any extensive amount
is shipped in from other states, a
quarantine will be thrown around the
entire state and all shipments held in
designated quarantine stations for inspection.
Government Plans to Market Timber.
Washington, D. C. Sale by public
bidding of approximately 730,000,000
feet, board measure, of ripe western
yellow pine and other species of tim
ber on the Klamath Indian reserva
tion of Oregon was approved by the
secretary of the interior last week.
The timber is the tribal property
of the Indians living on this reser
vation and is to be disposed of under
authority of an act of congress passed
in 1910. Proceeds from the sale, after
the cutting of the timber, which is ex
pected to take several years, will go
into the tribal fund of the Klamath
Indians. Offering of the timber will
be made in three different units.

Stingless Bee Found.
Tacoma, Wash. Science is credited
with many great developments, rang
ing from the discovery of anaesthetics
and radio to spikeless cactus, meatless
dinner and stringless beans, but one
that is commanding the greatest at
tention in Thurston county is the
stingless bee.
The Thurston county bee keepers,
meeting in Olympia, are focusing their
optics upon a great little playmate
for the children, a new type of bee,
of the Adel strain, developed by scien
tific processes. This beo is as harm
less as a soldier at parade rest. He
has no stinger, has no offensive arma
ment whatever, and if attacked must
depend upon the speed of his wings.
E. J. Campbell of Tenino Is the
exhibitor. Abel is said to bo a great
little bee, fond of Washington's cli
mate, and one of the sweetest little
honey gatherers that ever happened.
Campbell's exhibit A is drawing the
attention of all the Thurston county
bee keepers. The whole convention is
abuzz over the stingless bee.
