MORE SEEDS
FOR TRIAL.

A short time ago the Signal gave
notice that it had a quantity Of
government seeds for free distribu
ton. The supply was soon exhaust
ed and in answer to many demands
made by mail and in person it was
necessary to give notice that there
were no more on hand This week
we received much larger supply
and one which will undoubtedly be
enough to go around. All those
who applied too late before should
now write to the Signal or call. We
have mailed good many packages
to residents Of the upper valleys and
will be pleased to forward packages
to others who will notify us. Welser
farmers and gardeners can save us
the trouble of mailing by calling.
These seeds include new varieties
which the department of agriculture
is anxious to test in various climates
and localities. They are not put up
in wholesale packages to supply
market farming, but are IN small
trial packages.
They consist of

The Song Of The ProSpectOr.
BY James d. Thorn.

BY James D. Thorn.
Yes. I'm longing, my friend, for winter
to break;
For the snow 10 dissolve into rills;
And to pack once more the nimble cayuse,
And HE me away to the hills.
For months I've done nothing but sit in
a room,
Shut in by the snow and the cold;
How long for an early return of the
spring,
And to join the mad scramble for gold.
Until spring spreads carpet of green
DER the earth,
And perfumes all the breezes with
flowers,
am forced to complain, like poet OF
old:
How tedious and tasteless the hours!''
Then the fir and the pine will provide
me bed
OF boughs, which I'll make by some
stream;
An while the fierce lion and the rattle
snake guard,
There l'llrest me and peacefully dream.
And when from my sleep in the morning
wake,
And the sun DER the hills shall appear,
Then I'm up and away OH a hunt for a
ledge,
Or stalking the willy dun deer,
But my Pegasus grows somewhat weary,
my friend;
Perhaps | had best let him go;
Because ees not fashioned for bearing IA
load:
Our steed is the lively bronco.
