10000 Jack Rabbits were killed,
and at Lamar, Colorado, Decem-
Der %, 1894, 5,142 rabbits were kill
ed.
We all know that Rabbits are
destructive pest, and many trees
have been barked and bitten off in
our vicinity, by them.
The Bulletin says, in it's general
summary and conclusions, that
''The best means of protecting
crops from the attacks of rabbits,
and in fact the only method which
can be relied on, is the use of TAB
bit-proof fences.
Under favorable circumstances
great numbers Of jack rabbits may
be killed by drives or large hunts,
but this means will only serve to
reduce their numbers, and can not
be used to exterminate the pests.
Bounties or other direct expend-
lures of public money for the de-
struction of rabbits have failed to
accomplish the desired object.
Bounty laws afford unusual OPP
portunlties for fraud, and the
amounts expended are often so
large as to be a serious burden On
the county or state.
The determination ofrabbits can
only be accomplished by co-opera-
ton on the part of individual farm
ers or landowners. The work Of
destruction can be most effectually
and economically done when the
animals have suffered an unusual
decrease in numbers, either from
a severe winter, lack of food, or an
epidemic.
Jack Rabbits may be used for
coursing, for their skins, or for
food. The United States import
annually millions of rabbit skins
for felt and other purposes. The
skin of jack rabbits could proha-
bly, be used for many purposes for
which the cheaper grades of i'm
ported skins are now utilized, and
could be collected SO cheaply as
to leave margin Of profit.
The consumption of jack rabbits
for food amounts to about 100000
per annum, and is gradually in

The cold wave.

We spoke of the cold weather
last week, which occurred on the
last of March and the first of April,
but at that time we could not tell
much about the real damage that
was done, but reports have come in
since, that are anything but pleasing.
In all parts of the country, gener-
ally, the Mulberry, Aialanthus,
Pomegranate and other tender trees
and plants are leafless. Although
the figtrees had not put forth their
leaves to be noticeable, the young
figs were seen in abundance, but
they have all been destroyed, except
in localities where the frost has not
been so heavy.
At Joe's Foley where mulberry trees
are standing side by side, one tree is
nipped and the other unframed,
while the young 6gs are mostly in
good condition, only few of them
having been touched. Young Date
trees were not injured by the frost
and are growing finely at this writing.
The young Orange trees were nipped
lightly but not seriously. The Ohio
Buckeye and Horse Chestnuts were
also not harmed and are thriving
beautifully. Weeping Willows are
as green as ever, and all at that
place shows that the frost has been
light there.
wherever trees have been frosted,
the leaves are black and gives the
trees a doleful aspect, and in many
cases the young wood is also des-
troyed.
Some of our citizens who have
been to the trouble of making nice
arbors and had it covered with the
Australian or California Ivy, so as
to produce nice shade in the heat
of Summer, or where they have had
them trained up at the sides of their
dwellings, fnd many of the shoot.

! when you can have it done in your
own town is both foolish and wrong.
1t is your duty, as good citizen, to
encourage your own mechanics.
They need all the work they can get,
and by patronizing them you keep
money at home, assist the worthy,
and in almost every case have just
as good work done as could have
been done for you abroad. Giving
your patronage to home institutions
is the only way to make your town
prosper. You must, if you desire to
do your whole duty, support your
own schools. your own press. Where
there is general disposition to send
a hundred miles for an article that
could be manufactured as we'll at
your own door, there will always be
little or no business done. The
churches will be thinly attended, and
all kinds of labor extremely dull.
Wherever mechanics are the best
employed prosperity is seen; the
social virtues predominant, and
kindly brotherly feeling is exper-
fenced, which is the source of un-
speakable happiness.
Whatever you have to be done,
look around and see if your own
mechanics cannot do it. If you have
a house to build or shoe to tap, a
saddle to be made, tinware to mend,
house to paint, or apack Of cards,
bill heads, letter-heads, circulars, or
anything of that kind to print, or
anything else to be done, just look
among your home folks before you
send abroad, and if you find there
are none in your town capable of do
ing the job, it will then be time
enough to look elsewhere. We know
Of instances where men have refused
to purchase work made by their
neighbors, and have sent to a distant
city for the articles they needed,
and paid third more for them,
when, behold, they we're the very
articles manufactured and sent away
to sell by the same neighbors of
whom they refused to purchase.
Let the motto of all be: 81 will
encourage my own mechanics" In
turn you will be encouraged also,
A natural feeling of good will and
kindness will spring up in our midst,
and prosperity will be observable in
every street and in every dwelling.

killed nearly to the ground, and
where green leaves, were commenc-
ing to show up nothing is seen but
the posts, withered leaves and droop-
ing Vines, to cheer the owners sad
heart, that has been cheered so
many times in the heat of summer,
meath the beautiful shade they once
produced.
Nearly all the tender fruits have
suffered, so that what little there
will be this season, there is not the
least doubt but our home market
consume it all. There is one way
the farmers and gardeners can do to
partially make up the deficiency in
the fruit line, and that is to prepare
to have an abundance of Tomatoes,
Melons, &c., which can yet be
planted with good results.
Reports come in that considerable
winter wheat has been injured, some
of it looking quite white and Topped
to the ground, and fears are enter
tanned that in some instances it is
entirely killed.
In connection with all this is an
exceeding dry winter, there having
been but a small amount of snow
stored in the mountains and con-
sequently there will be but little
water in the creeks during the heat
of ST.. MINER when it is most needed,
unless we have rains to supply. the
deficiency. 1t is true saying that
In union there is strength" and we,
predict that if the people will humble
themselves and live their religion,
and put their trust in the Lord, fast
ing and asking in faith, that we will
be blessed with sufficient moisture
in mother earth to cause our crops
to mature and produce fair yield.
And the farmers are not the only
ones who are suffering from the
drouth. The stock and sheep men
are pulling long faces as they see the
fat leaving the sides of their focks
and herds, for the grass is dried up
and the nourishment is not in it as
it should be. Truly, we are living
in the last days when mems hearts
shall fail them, and it behooves each
and all to strive to live as they should
so that we can have power to receive
in all things as we need.
Notwithstanding all the above
is verify true, our town is donning
it's coat of green and is beautiful
to behold. The cottonwood, fruit
and other trees that were hardy,
have put forth their leaves in fine
style.

One of the bridge tenders of the Con-

the Hackensack River. while on duty last
night, noticed a dark object on a cake
OF ice floating under the bridge. Inves-
tigation revealed the fact that the dark
object was a human body. Poles and ropes
were procured and a number of men at

1t was within reach, but as many times
it slipped away. until finally when almost

RACE TRACK ToUTs AMAZED.

Joh Jones and Charles Brown, two
colored sports of New York, were sky
larking in. the Pennsylvania Railroad
station at three O'Clock this morning
when a revolver exploded. The policeman
on duty imagined there was another
shooting ARRAY on hand and with a
dozen passengers and station men he
rushed about in a crazy fashion trying
to find the supposed murderer. The
colored sports enjoyed the scene inn
mensely.
Brown explained that 1t was his revoi-
yer that went off. He said it was acct
dental. They were arrested. This morn
ing they asked Justice Potts to release
them.
We're race track touts," said Jones,
"and we came over here for fun. We
wanted to find a gambling house, but
couldn't"
That the downtown precinct had so
suddenly been freed of gambling dens
surprised Justice Potts and he held the
prisoners for further examination. They
are believed to be crooks.
