GIKDLED TREES SAVED. Last Spring
a number of fruit trees in two orchards
at Franktown, Nevada, were girdlcd by
some evil disposed person. At the time
the act was done it was thought all the
trees were killed, but much to the sur.
prise OF everybody not one has died The
Reno journal says: This is undoubt-
edly due to the fact that the trees were
properly cared for. Joe Frey at once
filled the cuts in the trees with grating
wax, and over this bound heavy canvas,
and covered the whole with heavy coat
OF paint. Thompson filled the cuts in
his trees with heavy paste made OF
white lead and oil, then bound closely
with canvass, and covered the canvas
and the trunk of the tree with thick
coat OF paint. The result is that the
trees are as thrifty as they could possibly
have been had nothing happened, and
are bearing more and better fruit than
ever before. Here is a circumstance that
farmers may find of interest to remem-
ber."
ME. ALLEN G. CAMPBELL made quite
large purchase Of important mining in
terests in Star District last week, and,
says the Beaver Record, one that argues
well for the speedy and thorough devel-
opment OF that rather tardy yet never
theless rich mining camp. The purchase
comprises the interest Of Mr.. p. Kemple
in the following named mines: Kanarrah,
Mountaineer, Clean Sweep, Wasco, Que
bee, Wasco No. 2, Vulcan, Reindeer and
Conomongh. The price paid was NOM
inally designated as 5000, the real con-
sideration being, however. the well known
building in Frisco, known as the South
ern Hotel, with all its furniture and
equipments.
NOISES IL TIE EAR.-The most I'M
pleasant accompaniment Of disease OF the
ear is sometimes SO distressing that the
patient is rendered almost frantic. In.
deed, cases of insanity have been traced
to this cause alone. Some cases may be
relieved by simple initiation Of the ear,
which may be done by grasping the nose
with the thumb and forefnger in such a
way as to close it completely, closing the
mouth, and then making an effort to ex-
pei the air through the nose. This
should not be repeated oftener than two
or three times week.
WILL LEAvE.-Mr. and Mrs. John N.
Craig will leave to-day, by private con-
veyance, for Eureka Mrs. Craig will

Craig has been in very poor health.
