WOODLAND.
The first real rain storm since spring
opened visited this part OF the country
on FRIDAY the o9th inst. It rained
moderate downpour all day. thorough
ly wetting the top of the ground FOR
several inches in ndepth.-Memorlal oay
was observed on the SOth at Caribou,
hx Ansel G.. Taylor Post. 95 d, OF the
q. A. r. There were not so many
veterans in attendance as some years
although a goodly number were in line
and took parts in the exercises OF the
dav One hundred and seventy three
school children were also in line. All
~ the graves of deceased soldiers We're
decorated. In the afternoon the hall
was crowded to listen to the able ad-
dress of Judge Stearns. All went
home feeling we'll repaid. One of the
comrades of the Post died on Friday
night of apoplexy, so it is stated.
His name was Charles King. He came,
I think, from Massachusetts. the SER
vices will be held at the Catholic
church on Monday. the lst day of June.
Farmers report one of the best sea-
sons for putting in crops for many
years. There has been but one rainy
day to stop work since farming began,
the first Of May.-The very large acre
age Of grain which has been put in
shows two things: First, that farmers
are not going to depend altogether on
potatoes: and second. that in putting
in plenty of grain they are going to
raise a crop that Is not perishable and
that a market can be found at home If
prices are light, which means plenty OF
home made fertilizer by feeding to
stock the grain and using lots of straw
for bedding-Old grass fields are put
ting on a good color The cool weather
has helped TO thicken the grass and
now the timely rains if they continue
through June will give us an average
crop of the best of hay. SO while the
West is suffering from so many fearful
cyclones we live where such things are
not known and the beginning of the
year looks bright and prosperous.

ROD AND GUN NOTES.


What Our Sportsmen Are Doing To
While Away the Heated Term.
Mr. Ed. Dreiss and family left on
a camping out expedition yesterday.
The Post Gun club has abandoned
its weekly trap shoots on account of
the dove season having opened.
A jolly party of stays left last
Wednesday for the Spring Branch of
the Guadalupe, to spend about two
weeks hunting and fishing. Follow
ing composed the party: Messrs. Joe.
Meyer, Joe. Vinck, Walter Fries, Joe.
Fischer, Jim Herweck and Gus. Froe-
bel. Three ''Joes" in one party should
make the expedition thrice proof
against "jonahism."
A few vacancies were created by the
board of directors of the San Antonio
Gun club in the membership of the
club at their last meeting. The club
has limit of one hundred members.
A great many of our sportsmen ac-
cept July 10Th as the proper date for
the killing of doves. Quite a number
went out yesterday and report having
made good bags.
The Light is in receipt of the pro-
gram of the North Texas Gun Club
League shoot, which takes place at
Greenville, Texas, August 9TH and
9th. They offer a splendid program
and various merchandise prizes.
Some sportsmen owning fine bird
dogs, complain of having their dog
tags furnished by the city as a Ii
cense, taken from their dogs collars.
The city administration should pass
an ordinance prohibiting NANCY dogs
from roaming our streets, even with
license tag. The disease is conta-
gious, and valuable dogs are always
in danger of coming in contact with
dogs so affected.
Quite 4 novel sight was witnessed
by Light man at Elmendorf lake,

Z o'clock in the afternoon. The black
bass were feeding in schools, and as
many as 25 to 90 would leap out of the
water, or appear on the surface feed
ing, and otherwise seeming to enjoy
themselves.
Several San Antonians left yester- |
day for Ingleside, where they will re |
main for several days.
Mr.. Gus. Critzer left last Tues
day for Galveston to attend the "Ha-
ney" shoot.
