HUNTING SEASON.

Lovers of prairie chicken hunting
have been busily occupied since the
first of September pursuing this popu-
lar bird. Those who have learned to
love this sport look forward to the time
with great pleasure and anticipation.
The faithfulness of a we'll trained dog
and the persistency in which he pur-
sues the prairie hen, is quality in the
animal, very much admired by one who
loves this sport. The intelligence
shown by the dog in locating the birds
by scent often puzzles the hunter and
makes him a great admirer of the dog
capable of mastering the situation,
On Friday the first day of the month
we were one Of a company of four with
Messrs. Geo. W. Baker, n. L. Compton
and Robt. Lyon who enjoved a days
sport. We started early in the morn
ing and went on the east side of the
Wisconsin river and struck the large
Beuna Vista marsh this side of what is
called the Ten MilCsr We travelled
all the morning and were rewarded at
noon with one bird the only one we
had seen. Our dinner was spread upon
table the property of Henry Oster
man on the marsh near Four mile creek
where he was haying. A picnic dinner
of this character with rustic surround
ings was highly relished after many
miles walk through hay marsh. Mr.
Compton was the subject of comment
for leading us off into country where
there were no chickens. He stood the
abuse directed at him by Mr.. Lyons
and others, manfully. The afternoons
hunt was better. We found two covies
and three stray birds which we almost
anihilated. Out of % birds raised we
left only three for next seasons crop.
We came home with 20 birds and felt
that the days sport was not near as dis
couraging as the forenoon promised
The following persons were members
of different parties and the number of
birds they were successful in bagglng.
They were all out the same day:
Messrs. Peter McCamley, L. NJ. Nash,
John Nash and D. d. Conway were
successful in bagging seventeen chickens
Messrs. Edmond and Alfred Rossier,
and Gerry Mason formed another party
who downed Is birds.
Messrs. Amele Rossier, w. A. John
son, Walter Gardner, Frank Carley and
Walter Dixon were members of jolly
party who captured Is chickens.
Messrs. Edward Spafford, Geo. Aysh-
ford and Chas. Belknap bagged II
chickens
Theron Lyons went out alone and
killed s chickens.

Announcement to the Public.

Messrs. Purdy & Read wish to inform
the public that they are prepared to
furnish any and all varieties of Nursery
stock and small fruit plants, including
blackberries, raspberries, strawberries,
gooseberries and currants. Also all
kinds of hardy fruit trees, shade and
ornamental trees, roses and shrubs of
all kinds. Also the choicest new
varieties of seed potatoes. They pro-
pose to meet competition of all reliable
dealers and will quote hard time prices
on anything in the nursery line,
This is a good opportunity to patro-
nize home industry and help build up a
new business which will be benefit to
every one in the county.
Don't pay high prices for nursery
stock to agents Of eastern firms that
you know nothing about, but buy at
home and get stock that is guaranteed to
be A No. and sure to please. And at
much lower price than it can be
bought of any travelling agent.
Remember that everything is guaran-
teed to be justas recommended, and
don't fail to get their prices, and then
plant enough fruit to give your family a
good supply for the entire season. If
any travelling agent calls on you kindly
tell him that you are going to patronize

PITTSViLLE.

The ire alarm was sounded in our
city last Friday afternoon and Doud,
Son q Co.'S stave shed found to be on
fire. The fire company responded
promptly to the call and soon had the
fire under control. Had the fire got
thoroughly started with the wind blow
ing stiff breeze from the northwest as
it did, the lower part of the city would
have been entirely wiped out.
Mrs. Dobbs and children, of Colorado,
are visiting with her sister Mrs. W. j.
Muir this week.
Mr.. M. Scott, of Portland, Oregon,
son of the Rev. Scott of this city is
visiting at the home of his parents.
Duff Erickson former operator in
the Depot in this city, was in the city
last week. We were unable to find out
whether it was in the line of business
or pleasure.
The Rev. Barker will take vacation
for few weeks. He left for Chicago
and the Worlds fair last Monday.
Frank Corrigan, of Chicago, visited
with his parents Mr.. and Mrs. Corrigan
last week.
Mrs. Aleck Muir, of Grand Rapids,
was visitor at the residence of w. J..
Muir last week.
When the fire alarm is given if those
in the immediate vicinity of the engine
house, whether they are iremen or not,
would help get the engine out instead
OF starting on a run to the fire, as they
generally do, it would greatly facilitate
the work of the Fire Co. In most cases
there are but few frmen near the
engine house and what is work for a
few could be lessened if all would lend
helping hand. Remember this is a
volunteer Co. and the boys get no pay
for their services. You can not in
justice ask too much of them if the Co. is
worth anything to the city, and think
they have clearly demonstrated the
fact that they are, the citizens should
appreciate their services and lend them
a helping hand whenever they can. K

Peaches for Desert.

A southern way of preparing peaches,
Cut the peeled peaches-eight-with a
silver fruit knife into crescents and
sprinkle them thick with sugar. Pour
over them d glass of Moselle and a
thimble glass of water in which you
have dropped two drops of almond
essence and three of Eau de Cologne
Let them stand half an hour before
serving. The essence and wine will not
disturb, but enhance the flavor of the
peaches, but the proportions must be
as strictly kept as if you were afraid of
poisoning somebody, otherwise you will
perfume, not flavor, your salad.
