\ dastardly attempt was made on
the night OF Oct 18th to exterminate
the trout in the hatchery of Silas l..
Griffith in the southern part Of Mount
Tabor, by the use of Paris green.
Some one poured 20 or 80 pounds Of
Paris green into the bulkhead of the
stream which supplies the fish tanks
with water. An overflow at the bulk
head carries water back into the
stream, and a quantity Of the poison
had been washed into the stream
where four families obtained drinking
water. These families were promptly
notified Of the danger.
There were some ,, 200 trout in all,
varying from little ones up to five
Founders. Most OF them were killed.
Mr.. Grifiith's hatchery is tine largest
private hatchery in the state. The
people of Mount Tabor and Dandy are
thoroughly aroused over the affair.

Good Wheat AVID Good Prices.

There has been a little furry in the
local wheat market lately, caused by
the fact that Hand county has the
best wheat this year raised in the
state, for milling purposes. Buyers
In st. Lawrence, representing mill
companies, run up the price six or
seven cents above what the Minneap-
oils market would warrant on the
best grade, and st. Lawrence has
been doing "a big wheat business late.
ly, but the Miller buyers started in
this week, and propose to pay as
much or more for wheat than any
body. The farmer smiles and says
"Bid up, boys" 1t is very evident
that Hand county farmers will get
all there is in wheat this year, and
the HrEss reioices with them.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more
generally needed when the languid,
exhaused feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of tonic and alteretive is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious levers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from malarial
