and took our bettcrhalf and cur
self for an automobile ride. We
called at the new summer home
C. II. Deur is building on his
orchard farm cast Of the city.
Few of our citizens realize what
a beautiful home Mr.. Deur is
building. The house is two
stories and basement. There
arc perhaps ten rooms in the
house and as fine a basement as
one could wish. The house is
surrounded on three sides by a
wide veranda, from which a
view for three miles up and
d own the Boyer valley can be
had. Above the house on the
top of the hill he has built a
reservoir which furnishes water
for a complete system of water
works for the entire place. An
elegant bath room and dining
room are two fine features of
this summer home. The bed
rooms are in the second story.
They are large and airy and the
view from them is simply su-
peru.
Mr.. Deur has seven thousand
fruit trees in his orchard besides
two or three acres of small
fruit.
AS soon as the house is fin
ished Mr.. Deur will move into
it for the summer, and will use
it as a summer home. 1t is an
ideal spot for a summer home.
1t issurrounded by natural trees
of all kinds. He employed a
landscape gardner to lay off the
lawn, and when the work is fin
ished it will be beautiful. We
venture the assertion that there
isn't as fine a summer home in
Western Iowa as Mr.. Deur will
have when this is finished.
After our visit to this place
Mr.. Edgecomb drove" to Lo-
gan and back. The trip con-
WINGED us that the hill farmers
have no complaint as to crop
prospects, as every field we
passed was in fine condition and
the corn looked green and
thrifty. The hill farmer this
year is absolutely in it. The
finest corn we saw on the trip is
on the Tom Faith farm, purch-
ased last year by Mr.. Edgecomb.
The resolution in regard to
the Northwestern railroad by
the county Sunday school con-
vention last week was a very
foolish thing. The mass of the
members had, of course, no
hand in it and the person who
prepared the resolution knew
so little of affairs in general
that he compiled a roast on the
North Western which should
have applied solely to the
American Express Co., an in
stitution which controls the
express business on the North
Western and |. G. railroads. 1t
is not probable that the North
Western will be driven out of
business, but in justice to
themselves the Sunday School
people should fight shy of the
crank agitator and devote their
energies to the dissemination
of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

OSTRICH pLUCKING
Another 'Seanes" Tomorrow at the
Exhibition Pens.

There viii be another pluclling of
ostriches at the exhibition yards near
the west end of the car line Tuesday
afternoon from to 4 O'Clock The
quilts viii at the same time be removed
from a number OF birds that were
plucked several weeks age. There is
more to the harvesting OF a crop OF
ostrich feathers than most people mag
ire, and point or two on the subject
may not be embarrassing.
In the first place, the ostrich is a
pretty good-sized bird and the feathers
are in proportion TO the rest of it. 1t IS
small matter to pull feather out OF
a chicken, but when a whole lot or
feathers with quilts as big as a chick
ems leg are pulled out of one bird lit
has to be done properly or it leaves =
sore place. The method therefore is not
to pull out the feathers but 10 clip them
Il few inches from the skin, and after
six weeks OF two months the qiulIs dry
up and can then be drawn with
little pain to the birds and without In
Juring the germ from which another
feather grows. If the feathers were
pulled out in the first place. no feathers
would come in the place of them. and

the bird would fail to be profitable

the bird would fail to be a profitable
producer
Another reason for the clipping of the
feathers is that if they are taken just
at maturity they are in better condi-
ton foi' a little vein runs from the body
to the tip of the feather. and if the
feather is left too long it begins to dry
up and lose its lustre. the body alb
sorbing some of the life it has pre-
viously thrown into the feathers. In
the natural order of things the feather
would dry up and eventually fail out
Of its OWE accord. BY clipping, the
feather is taken at its best and the
drying of the quill materially FASTENED
also.
These quilts are frequently asked for
by visitors to the farm as souvenirs.

FUNERAL OF 6. D. GRAY

ship in the society here. There was
also a representative attendance of the
/. o. O. F, A. O. L. W. and Masonic
orders, in all of which Mr.. Gray held
membership. The service was an MI
pressive one as the dead man was
widely known and greatly respected, so
that in addition to the formality that
attends every funeral of a military ma
ture there was an expression of SEN
timent prompted by feelings of long
association and personal friendship.
Numerous floral tributes also adorned
the caslIet and the ROOM
In the pa ssing Of Captain Gray is fin
ished the life work of one who has for
many Yeas been intimately connected
with the b business interests of the valley
and one who has had unbounded faith
in its future. His exemplary character,
his fidelity to his friends and his earn

whom he came in contact. the most

THE LEGISLATIVE WEEK
At the BEGINNING It Promises To Be a
Busy One.

1t is expected that this will be busy
week in the legislature A good many
things have conspired to delay pro-
ceedings during the three weeks since
the beginning of the session. There
was at first the work of the special
committees, then the preparation o.
bills and then the uncertainty of state
hood. One cause latteriy has been the
Difficulty. of getting the printed bills
Beside the Introduction Of many new
bills this week most of the CID ones
will be given considerable attention
There viii be a strong effort to pass
or at least advance those measures
advocated by the Tucson platform.
One of them. the eight hour law, has
already passed the house and it is not
expected that serious opposition to any
Of the others will develop in that body.
The council is where the rub will come
and it is predicted that il Will furnish
50 much friction that not many if any
of those favored measures will go
through without serious Disagreement.
The friends of the eight hour bill are
especially DESTROYS % an expression OF
sentiment regarding it but there can
be none this week without the consent
mines and mining to which it has been
referred. 1t is understood that what
ever may be the sentiment of the COM
mittee it is not inclined to be precipi-
tate and a report from it cannot be
forced before early next week. The
committee secured the consent OF the
council in the Ki1bey resolution to
take its time. a few days later an
other resolution to which there was TO
opposition limited the time to ten days.
That limit viii expire next Tuesday.
There is a growing resentment in
both houses and particularly in the
house against outside Interference.
notably that of Colonel Wilson. That
resentment may in the course of the
week reach a stage which viii add
somewhat to the ssyety of nations and
temporarily divert attention from the
statehood conundrum.

THE WEATHER
Mountains Full Of Snow and bitches
Full of Water.

The water available for use in the
irrigating canals of this valley yester-
DAY amounted to something over 24,4o0
inches. and it may be truthfuliy said
that everybody has got all the water
he has any use for a : this time. In
fact, there has been an ample supply
all winter. and there never was
brighter prospect for the ensuing crop
season.
The mountains are swathed in deeper

son@ble prediction nat more snow IS
falling in the hills.
