ACCIDENTS.
TAKEN FROM "a CHAPTER OF AcCI-
DENTS" IN VIE PAYETTE INDIE
PEDENT OF NOVEMBER 10th.

Walter King of Payette while
attempting to ford the Payette
river Wednesday afternoon at the
old Hunt ford on the south side of
Welche's Island was drowned. He,
with Mr.. Banks, who was in our
vicinity not long since selling bug
giles, left Payette Wednesday morn
ing with a hack and buggy trail
ing behind; and were interviewing
the farmers on their way. On
reaching the ford King drove into
the water about $50 feet when the
swift current upset the buggies
and threw the two men in to the
water. Banks managed to unhitch
one tug then pulling for the south
shore left King at work with the
others. When Banks was within
less than 100 feet of the shore he
looked back and saw King on one
of the horses with the other plung-
ing by his side, but just then both
horses and the man disappeared,
and though a party was organized
that evening and began searching
for the body King has not been
seen since. King was a good swim
mer and it is thought his death
was caused by being fastened in
the harness or getting hurt by the
horses. One of the horses was
drowned by getting his fore legs
tangled with the reigns and the
neckyoke in such way as to hold
his head under watar; bnt the 9th
or was saved by those who respond
ed to Mr.. Banks alarm.
King was a single man about 80
years old and has lived in Payette
about ten years where he has host
of friends who grieve his loss. His
relatives live in Grand Island Ne
braska.
We have learned since taking
the above from the Independent
that a diligent and thorough search
by shooting joint powder and drag
ging the bottom of the river, was
kept up until Sunday evening, and
that everything was found except
Kings body. Since then boats are
running the river with a close
watch.
john Allen, aged II years, was
killed by an accidental discharge
fhis gun, while herding sheep for

on Tuesday of last week. The body

S. w. Woodland, Geo. V. Nesbitt
and Geo. Dutton, and was taken to
Payette where impressive funeral
and burial services were conducted,

AN EvELEss EDEN.
"A Utah Town That Has No Women
and Will Not Permit Them
to Enter.

sissU Utah is returning to Edenic condi-
tons. It has town which no woman
may enter. The town is Sunny side, a
new coal camp in Whitmore Canyon,
near Price, Utah. Robert For1e tester,
the manager of the properties and,
in charge, has issued
an edict against women. B,
There are $50 men employed In the.
mines at Sunnyside. Most of them are
married, but they are not only not al
lowed to bring their wives to live at
Sunny side, but their better halves may
not visit them there. If the married
man wants to visit his family he must
take ga day Off at his own. expense.
His wages are s'docked'' in punishment
Of this foolish show of sentiment. AS.
a consequence q few of the men have
forsaken their jobs in spite of the
rigors of. hard times.
Mr.. Forester, who proclaimed the
severe edict, is not woman hater. He
declares that he is a fervent admirer al
the sex. He proudly claims the distinc-
ton Of being a ladies man. Z 5s5
The reason for the order which was
issued recently forbid ding women to
live in, or even visit, the camp, is sor-
did business one. There are 2, 500 acres
of coal lands to which the company
owning the Sunnyside mines has not
yet secured a perfect title. Were the
men permitted to bring their wives
upon the lands. and, by even an
sional visit from them, give color to
the claim that their cabins in the coal
lands were their homes there might
arise q question Of title. In this case il
the men were INSCRIPTIONS and SO
willed they might force the company
to buy out their II II gih hts. 5
Hence the ungallant proclamat ton Of
the prudent Mr.. Forester. N. Z.

MIXERS AND MILKING.
Six Cows to One Man Is About the
Right Proportion for the Aver
age Farm Employee

There seems to be a great deal Of
discussion among the farmers in differ
ent localities nowadays in regard to
the subject Of good mixers. The re-
mark that it is now almost impossible
to find good mixers is quite frequent
" heard among dairymen. This is a
great mistake, says a writer in Rural
New Yorker. I thoroughly believe that
there are Just as good mixers in this
and other localities as there ever were.
if not better.
The farmer who depends on day
hands b, for his help, as a general rule,
is the one who complains most bitterly
IS regard to this matter. The average
mn lal1 is hired by the day will not
milk nix even if be can. Wherever or when
ever Lind good month hand, one who
stays on the farm continually, one who
Isl not constantly listening for the
sound Of the six o'clock whistle. one
who does not go to town every night.
4 find good mixer.
a COW should be MIXED as quickly
as possible. A good mixer can milk IL
.ooWs an hour. The muscles of the fore:
arm, wrist and hands Of good mixer
must be well developed; therefore, as:
9 rule. women are poor mixers. They
require too much time to milk d cow.
The evil resulting from this practice
is that the cows do not readily give
down on their milk. Some farmers ex-
{pect man to do too much Of this work.
The number Of cows that man milks
should l depend on the amount and ma.
sture OF other labor that he performs.
AS a "a q rule, do not believe that ia man
should 1pu'tllld be allowed to milk more than
six cows. M %
