Stingy West Seattle lender winds watch for fee
A West Seattle man pawns a gold watch to a five per cent moneylender for a thirty day loan. The lender insists on winding the watch daily, charging five cents per wind, and at the end adds a $1.50 winding fee. The borrower pays and escapes before further charges. Also noted are discussions on poisonous mushrooms and bird diet studies.

Mosquito Suppression Plans and Oil Method Proposed
The article reviews Robert H. Lamborn’s prize for a practicable mosquito control method. It notes dragonflies and spidora as unlikely, cites O Howard's kerosene-on-water technique as practical, and explains how a small amount of oil yields a wide, thin film that kills larvae and prevents mosquito production over a treated area.
