OF WASHINGTON TABLE SNOWING Local Cow» Received Much Recogni tion In Stock Circles I'he Carnation Stock Farms of Seattle closed a deal last week with F. R. Beals whreby the major por tion of the Beals herd of pure-bred Hulsteins passed into their hands. This herd is recognized as the best held of pure-bred cattle in the Northwest. Mr. Beals early recogniz ed the importance of combining type and production in his animals and so well did he succeed that in less than two years of official test work he developed a world’s record cow and several state records in the various divisions these records at tracted a great deal of attention throughout the dairy world and were the subjSct of much favorable comment in such publications as the Holst.ein-Friesian World, Hoard’s Dairyman and other important farm papers. A few weeks prior to the fall fairs, Lady Aaggie Ormsby of Rock, a member of the BealB herd, com pleted her sensational yearly rec ord, of Just under thirty thousand pounds of milk and Just under elev en hundred pounds ot butter. Lady Aaggie’s record was officially an nounced a few days before me Til lamook County Fair. Following this ann luncement Lady Aaggie, together with some . wenty other members of the High- mnd Grove herd, were exhibited at vUetfo^ CO^uly ialr. The veteran Hoistdin w_n Smith of Spokane, did the Judging and awarded most of the blue rib- bons to this herd, giving Lady Aag gie Ormsby of Rock the Grand championship. Smith did the Judg ing at the Washington State Fair a few days later and while there told the breeders of Washington that Tillamook’s Highland Grove Show Herd surpassed any herd In the Northwest. Carnation Stock F^rms immediately dispatched a represen tative to Tillamook to Investigate, with instructions, if found as rep resented by Smith, to purchase Lady Aaggie Ormsby of Rock and a tew of the other outstanding show ani mals and producers of the herd. Sev eral days were spent in negotiations during which it is said Mr. Beals was offered five thousand dollars for Lady Aaggie and a correspondingly high figure for other members of Wrecking the building beyond re pair, an exploding boiler at the Three Rivera creamery at Hebo Wednesday caused quite a commo tion in the little community. Cheesemaker Fogg had built a fire In the boiler to prevent freezing In the curing room, as the factory operates only every other day. He had been on top of the boiler just a few minutes before the explosion to repair the float valve, which had be come stuck. Fogg claims that only about thirty-five pounds of steam were in the boiler when he left the factory to return home after firing the boiler. The explosioa occurred at about 5 p. m. The dome of the boiler was car ried out through the roof and about a hundred yards up the Cloverdale road by the explosion and part or the boiler, a large piece from the side, has never been found. The force of the explosion can be partly determined by the fact that as the boiler left Its foundation It hit a double tier of wood stacked against the wall with such force that the wall and wood was forced to one side, the wall being swept off its foundation. The building Is an en tire wreck. No one was hurt by the explosion, as there was no one In or near the building. The boiler was an old one and in very poor condition, according to the report of the Inspector who made the Investigation. Practically all the damage was covered by in surance, in which the directors of the factory are considered fortun ate. It Is understood that the re building of the factory will take place immediately. Chas. McKllllp, Joe Price and Jerry Lewallin are the directors. MARTIAL GRIEFS ARE AIRED TO BENEJTTJHBcinT covsv W.

The correspondence had taken place between Dr. Shearer and General White after the local po« had taken up the matter of form ing an organization here at its last meeting. The members were addressed by A. A. Hall, who was connected with the adjutant gen eral's office for several months, upon the possibilities of getting a guard unit and consequently an armory at this place.

Though it Is somewhat early for road work on account of the uncer tain weather, the county court Is completing plans for an extensive road building campaign this sum mer. The blds received from advertis ing on the beach road were all too high to satisfy the court so the work is going to be done by force account. This work entails clearing the right of way from Manhatton to Brighton. One trestle will b necessary between Manhattan and Hadden. Judge Mason stated this week that quite a little would be accom plished In a few days in the way of a start. The Farmer grade will be stated soon. It Is undecided yet whether to use the steam shovel on this piece of work or not. The court Is working on the spec ifications for the state road from the Clatsop county line to Tillamook and bids will be advertised for on this road within the next few days. On the Bayocean road. Contract or Walt Woods Is getting lumber and piling for the retaining wall and assembling his machinery to start work here soon. The remaining half of the paving from the Stanley bridge to the Til lamook river bridge Is to be laid as soon as weather permtis. County Judge Mason stated that the pay for road work will probably be the same as last year and con templates no shortage of labor for the county work. The grading to the new Conder bridge will be ready for the sum mer traffic, aB work is to commence on this part very soon. The next ninety days will doubtless see this work completed, continues the Judge. The Mpore cut-off will also be finished as soon as the season will permit. There Is very little probability that this section will oe paved as the state considers the com too high. WEEK FROM SATURDAY TO BX BUSY DAY FOR MEMBERS OF Sometime during last Friday night, or early on Saturday morn ing, robbers effected entrance to the Allen House, located on First street, this city, entered every room of the up-stalrs section, save one, and rob bed the lodgers of money, aggregat ing 154.75, two watches and some jewelry. A lodger named Olson, whose door was tried by the thieves, heard the attempt, but was not further molested. He later gave the alarm. The lower apartments are occupied by the proprietor, J. F. De Ford and family, who were not dis turbed by the robbers, who ssemed bent upon operating In the upper part of the house. When Frank Merrill, a lodger woke up, he was minus his pants and $28 and a watch. Unde.- his pillow he had $200 in currency, which the thief overlooked. John Cook another lodger, lost a Hamil ton watch, No. 61185, and $7.75 In cash- Mr. Talbott lost $19 In m?n ey«- Other lodgers were relieved or jewelry and trinkets of small value The only man awakened in the hotel, according to statements made, was Olson, the robbers working quietly, and seemed by their careful work to be acquainted with the premises. Just how the thieves ef fected entrance, was not evident, as the people below were not disturbed and knew nothing of the robbery until awakened by the guests the next morning. Sheriff Aschlm and City Marshal White began work early on the case, and watched the outgoing trains and stages. Either the robbers reside In the city, or left soon after their work by auto mobile.
