To our School Patrons.

The amount of public money on hand
in our district at present is $3.50, which
falls short about $3.50 Of being sufficient
to run the six months term Of school, at
the rate Of 800 per month, the amount
1t will take.
After careful consideration, we have
concluded that the most practical and
satisfactory manner, to the district at
large, by which to raise the necessary
amount is to levy rate bill, and thus
raise the amount among the patrons of
the district who send children to the
school. This rate tax will he collected
at the end Of the term. All scholars at
tending our school from outside the dis
trict will be charged as follows: For
the grammar department, 80 per quar-
ter, and the primary department, s5 per
quarter payable strictly in advance.

How to Destroy Squirrels.

Ed. GLOBE For the benefit Of you
many readers who are likely to be dam
aged by squirrels next season, give m.
nodns operandi in destroying them
which believe is the best yet known
speak from my experience last spring
/ Owing to the lateness Of the spring
and the frequent snowfall, 1t was yer,
easy TO find their holes in the snow, ant
making my rounds after the snow fell
dropping little Of the poison wherever
squirrel tracks we're found, and after re
peating this i've or six times, | founc
that not single corn or cabbage plani
was damaged and very little grain de
stroyed. The little pests must be "nip
ped In the bud" after they get star
1t is next to impossible to exterminate
them.
The squirrels make their appearance
about the middle OF March, and in some
favored localities they do not hole-up
until about the middle Of August. They
do the most damage in July, before the
grain is thoroughly ripe, when poison s
OF little, II any, use and when the grass
and grain is SO tall that the shotgun Is
OF little effect in killing them. There
fore, use your poison early, and don't be
fooled by thinking because there seems
so few 1t lis not worth bothering about
them; they multiply with rapidity
that is astonishing. Another reason for
beginning early is that the dead squir-
rels are eaten by their survivors.

weather. One dollars worth is suffi-
cient for 320 acres il judiciously used.

BY following the above directions,
am satisfied your labor will be amply re-

great deal of annoyance and needless ex-
pense. Hoping my few remarks will

| M. V. Harrison Of Hood River seems
to be in hard row Of stumps. Eastern
creditors have closed his store again, his
goods being attached last week. II is
somewhat Of a mystery how Mr.. Harir-
son manages TO keep on making costly
improvements and yet apparently seems
TO always be deeply involved in debt.
The Oregonian has quite lengthy ar
ticle on convict labor being put on pnb-
lie highways. This would undoubtedly
be the proper thing TO do, as it would
improve our roads and not take work
from the man who wants ii and is trying
TO make an honest living. The way
criminal labor has been managed for the
past few years has almost been an in
ducement for man to commit crime to
keep from starving in many places, as
they have been deprived Of work be-
cause II could be done cheaper by con-
vict labor.
Nancy Hanks has again lowered her
record, this time on the regulation track
at Terre Haute, Indiana, changing the
mark from 2:07 to 2:04. This eclipses
all previous records, not excepting those
OF the kite-shaped track. By this feat,
Doble, Nancy's driver, wins the $4,000
prize offered by Robt. Bonner to the
first horse that went 2:05 on a regula-
tion track. Those who have kept care
ful eye on Nancy Hanks have about con-
cluded that the mare will never be en-
tirely happy until she has kept up her
two-minute gait for four consecutive
quarters.
There Is no occasion whatever for our
business men TO get discouraged at the
slight dulness of trade. Iii true, trade
at present is not quite so brisk as It has
been; but all the travelling men tell us
that more business is done at Condor,
for the size OF the place than at any town
in the state. Our business men cannot
expect TO do ''land office business"
when all other towns in the country are
even duller than ours. They also inform
us that Condor cannot be excelled any
where in the West for thrift and enter
prise, which is the result Of its live news
paper.

To Friends OF Education.

The presidentof the United States has
by proclamation set apart the 2lst day
OF October next as public holiday, it
being the four hundredth anniversary OF
the landing Of Columbus. In his proc
lamation the president recommended
that it be especially observed by the
public schools; that the American flag
be raised on every school house in the
land, and that appropriate exercises be
had in all the school houses at that
time.
Not wishing to be behind in anything
that will tend to make our school one Of
the best and most attractive in the state,
we have decided to celebrate this day
with appropriate exercises, and to this
end we would respectfully ask the hearty
cooperation Of all those who are inter-
ested in the cause OF education.
We would especially request all old
veterans to assist, as to them will be as
signed the task Of raising the flag.
These veterans are to include not only
those who wore the blue, but also those
who donned the gray, as it is the aim OF
the public school system to teach the
rising generation the oneness of our ma
tion and our flag. So let all veterans,
either Of the "blue" or the "grayo that
are willing to assist, report to Inc as soon
as possible SO that arrangements can be
made for their part in the program, as
well as for their entertainment at that
time. There will he parade Of the
school on this occasion, and the military
and civic organizations will receive for
NAL invitations to take part.
We expect to have general good time
and would earnestly request all who have
an interest in the general welfare of the
country, and especially Of the future OF
the country, to assist the children in
this the greatest discov-
cry that the world has sver known.
