THE HOUSEHOLD.
What Do W e Plant.

What do we plant when we plant the tree?
We plant the ship which will cross the sea,
We plant the mast to cary the sails;
We plant the planks to withstand the gales
The keel, keelsom and beam and knee:
We plant the ship when we plant the tree.
What do we plant when we plant the tree?
We plant the houses for you and me,
We plant the rafters, the shingles the floor,
We PLAINTIFF studdings, the hath, the doors,
The beams, the siding, all the parts that be;
We plant all these when we plant the tree.
What do we plant when we plant the tree9
thousand things that we daily see;
We plant the spire that out-towers the crag,
We plant the staff for our countrp's flag,
We plant the shades. from the hot sun free;
We plant ali these when we plant the tree.

Grass for Poultry.

Those who are obliged to keep their
poultry confined all the time may, by Civ
ing an hours liberty just at night, provide
daily grass ration and quite a supp " o.
animal food without expense. The
amount of scratching a hen can do in one
hour in the morning is surprising, but at
night this may be avoided.

FARM NOTES
Onion Growing.

One of the most important points in
onion growing is good seed. Onions for

kept with the tops in a dry place. They
are planted in early spring, three feet by
SIX inches, and ipen seed in September
which is cut when dry and stored in 2 dry
loft till cleaned.

the hoes bright and sharp. This means
much more than some may suppose. A

not last so long for it, but much more can
be done for it in the same time, and with
far less expenditure of force. A dull. rusty

!. E. Doian and Miss Mary Schirmer United
in Marriage

Hon. J. E. Dolan startled his
friends a few months ago with the
announcement that he had discov-
cred a substance three hundred
times sweeter than honey. He was
rather reticent about the matter,
however, further than the an
nouncement, 1t was supposed that
the Judge was pursuing scientific
investigations, but lately it had
leaked out that Cupid played a
leading role in his discovery. And
it now appears a fact that he was
only speaking metaphorically, and
the "sweet substance" was no less
than a charming young lady who
last Thursday evening became his
bride.
And 50 it happens that the HER
AID has the pleasure Of recording
the marriage Of Mr.. J. e. Dolan
and Miss Mary Schirmer. The
ceremony took place at the home Of
the brides parents, the N. P. Hotel,
last Thursday evening at $50,
Judge Frank G. Cole tieing the
nuptial knot, Mr.. H. D. Culver
acting as best man and Mrs. Raney
as brides maid. A large number Of
friends were present to witness the
ceremony and to extend their good
wishes and congratulations to the
happy couple. After supper the
company partook of an elegant re-
past, THE tables were then cleared
away and music and danciug was
the entertainment.
The groom, Mr.. ] e. Dolan, is
well known in mining circles, being
connected with the Kootenai Min
ing and Smelling Company, and
is also prominent in politics. The
bride, Miss Schirmer, is the daught-

Granite.


A week ago one of the loneliest
and most desolate spots on the N P
railway was Granite station, at the
foot of Granite hill, 81 miles west
of Kootenai: The lone operator
had nothing to keep him company
in his night vigils but the desolate
gray bluffs or the occasional scream
'of some wild animal. Now all is
changed. A crowd of men swarm
around each train and town is
'springing up. Three saloons and
"a store are now going up.
The occasion of all this is the
building of a nine mile cutoff on
the n ? to shorten the line and
lessen the grade. The work com
nences at Granite station with
tunnel Of 440 feet. Just the other
side Of Sand Point five miles Of
track will also be changed, running
The track on the west side of Coca
ialla creek instead of on the east
side as now This is to avoid the

The headquarters will be at Gran

Of the commissary department. 1t
