All should Join the G. A, r.

Commander in Chief weissert. in General
Order No. 2, says:
"There are approximately 100000 eligible
comrades outside the ranks OF the G. A X.
These men can only be induced to join it by
those with whom they come in contact. Will
each comrade try to bring into the ranks
one recruitP To restore a suspended or re-
instated a dropped member is just as whole
some recruiting as any other. Depart
ment commanders will resort to such
measures in the various localities as appear
to promise the most practical results.
"Some remain outside the order because
of short service. Let such be advised that
an honorable discharge is all that is neces-
sary Tor membership. and many men who
served well for 80 days may have done as
much good to the country as those who
have a record Of four years.
MANY younger men who now, by reason
of their age, ought to be coming to the
front in the order enlisted as soon as their
age would permit, and that was only possi-
bile near the close of the great struggle.
Their service may have been short from ne
cessity, but it is just as honorable rs If 1t
had been given in lS6l-2."

Balls and parties, fetes and excursions
followed each other in rapid succession, but
il was not until Prot. Amilon presented his
idea for the Giving chessboard' that the
excitement began to grow really intense.
Our lovers, OF course, were resolved at all

APoem on Comrade Rees' Death.

The following poem was read by Comrao
7. j. Patterson at the funeral services
he late Comrade X S. Rees. 1t was com
osed for the occasion by Mrs. Maria
orris, of Bellevue:
Step bv step our ranks are thinning,
One by one they pass away.
Here the 10 ;dl blue are falling,
Ionder fall the vanQuished grayy
And the solemn bells are toliing
Dust TO dust and clay to clay.
Here a comrade tried and true
Muiely lies in deaths embra
Soul TO soul wells up with sorrow
As we gaze upon his face;
And his memory in our circle
Ever green will have place.
May the great, all-loving Father
Guide his wife and children dear
O'er life's rough and ftormy ocean,
To the haven wide ind clear.
And with His own geiitle fingers
Wipe away each bitter tear.
Wrap the dear old flag around him
That our comrade fought to save;
Not one star has lost is glory,
Nor one bright fold ceased to wave;
Dyed in blood IL proudly triumphed-
Emblem Of the free and brave.
When the last Grand Army veteran
Comes alone to take his stand,
BY the icy unknown river.
Stretching out his weary hand.
Family beckoning to the poatman
Aailing from the golden strand,
May the wind blow softly round him.
As He gently steers him DER
To the army of old comrades.
Who have safely crossedbeiore;
And one great grand halleiujah
Echo back from shore to shore.

How Flowers can be Had the Year
Around.
About this time OF year the new
settler in the Wood River towns " no
enjoys the refnements of home life is
puzz'ing his brains to ascertain what
hbwers to grow, or attempt to grow,
in his dooryard. or in the border.
All the inhabitants of ketchum,
Bellevue and HALEY who love flowers
have had TO solve this problem for
themselves, at much trouble and no
uncomfortable expense. Year after
year have they tried this, that aud the
other choice variety of Towering
plants, only to be disappointed. The
season would be either too cold, or too
not, or too short, to admit OF the
maturing of most of the choices,
shrubs, plants or flowers.
But Notwithstanding our compara-
lively unfavorab!e climate, the fine
lawns aud gardens in town testify no,
only to the possibility but to the
comparative ease with which even q
magnificent display of bloom can b,
secured. And If one is careful il
selection and cultivation, an amazing
variety OF towering plants can be
grown here from seed, aud raised to /.
perfection even greater than is DOS,
sible with the same plants in 4 trop
ical or more temperate climate.
In order to assist householder il
