Jos. Houser of Cuba G. ty is
serving a 90day sentence at the

able to furnish 5000 bond to keep the

recently and was placed under arrest

L. D. Eastman writes an interest
ing letter to his little daughters Vera
and Janice from San Francisco, Cal,
which we were accorded the pleasure
of perusing. It was written on the
4th of March, and the writer stated
that it was a veritable May day
oranges and lemons in bloom,
flowers and foliage in height Of
splendor. His impressions of Sacre-
mentO were most fattering, con-
sidering it the finest city he had ever
visited. The letter describes a trip
to Chinatown in San Francisco,
where thousands of celestials live.
In one abode their were $50 rooms
about Sx10 in size with four cots III
in room. Here the inmates recline
and inhaIe the fumes of their opium
pipes untii sleep OverpOwefs them.
Mr. Eastman's imagination was sur
passed in viewing the actual sights
and he was Mortified at the condition
of things. On the Sunday previous
to the date of the letter the lumber
party of which Mr.. Eastman was
one attended church in Brigham
Young's tabernacle in Salt Lake
city, Utah. He speaks of it as an
immense structure and the organ it
contains as the largest in the world.
The writer signified his intentions of
being home this week.
1t is very doubtful whether Z.
Thomas, the baseball player with
the frozen feet at the asylum, will
cut much of a figure in the national
game this season, and to see him in
his present plight removes all doubt
of the fact that the Herald published
the truth concerning his unfortunate
experience in Deem Der last when
he wandered away from the instltu-
ton and before being found nearly
persisted in the cold The writer
was at the asylum Sunday and was
to see Thomas with his
feet still in bandages and to learn
that he had not been able to stand
on them since he was returned.
Attendants stated that it would prob
ably be a week before he would be III
condition to use his feet at all. |
This is published to corroborate the
facts printed three months ago IN
this paper. The young man has
received the best of care and atten-
ton and will doubtless come out OF
his trouble without any serious con-
sequences.

Police Seeking Information Regarding
Woman Who Died in Hospital.

The police are endeavoring to determine
the identity of a woman who died at Gar

She was known in the disreputable section
of the city as Blanche Palmer. which the
police think she assumed in order to con-
ceal her identity. After her death was re-
ported to the police the latter took charge
of her effects. In Bible taken from her

WOULD MAKE THEM RANcHERs.

The Montana Stockman would solve
the Butte situation by inducing the
mining population of that city, now
dependent for profitable activity on
the whims of certain copper magnates,
to go ranching. 1t says:
Some one says that a miner is
helpless at ranch work. We don't be-
lieve it. We know better. When the
Flathead valley was opened major
ity of men to take up lands were min
ers from Butte. Some of the best
farms in that great valley are owned
by men who never did any work but
mining till they took up the home
stead or presumption. Some of them
had never harnesSed a team, but they
learned. They did not make much
Roadway at farming for year or two,
it is true, but they lived as we'll as
they ever did at mining, and they built
up homes that are today worth from
$4,000 to $4,000. Some of them un-
derwent some hardships in the first
years of land making and home build
ing, but we have never met one who
returned to mining voluntarily.
"This paper does not claim that
arabic lands are picked up all over
the state, but no longer is the big
stock ranch the popular idea in Mon
tana The little men with the we'll
titled farms of 160 acres or less, are
the men who have been making the
progress. There are opportunities
right in Montana for thousands Of
homebuilders, and the miner of Butte
who can take look around will find
a nook some wher to lay the founda-
ton for home and earnest work for
a few years will do the rest. We
know this idea will be combatted by
many but the facts are as stated"

gether, so that the spraying can not
be we'll DONE it is quite necessary to
use these bands; or if it is desired to
bring the insect under control in a
badly infested orchard, the bands can
be used with good success as an ad-
ditional method to spraying.
Banding for this insect in general
is simply offering a good place, in
which the larva will spin it's cocoon
and killing it after it has done SO.
Cloth bands, from 10 to IL inches in
width, are folded once lengthwise and
placed around the tree. They can be
fastened in such a way as to be easily
removed and replaced by driving a
nail through the ends and then nip
ping off the head at an angle so as to
leave sharp point. If tree is large,
one band should be placed on the
trunk and one on each of the larger
limbs.

BLANKETING HORSES.

A blanket is an essential part of the
equipment of every stable. 1t is al
ways necessary when horse is stand
ing in the stable in winter. A light
sheet is about as necessary in summer
during fly time A blanket should al
ways be thrown over the horse in cold
weather, or even in the cool weather
of spring and autumn, when standing
after being driven. While the horse is
working there is no danger that he
will suffer from the cold. If a blanket
is used the average horse will sweat
and the moisture will be retained, and
in this way the danger from taking
cold is much greater.
A horse should always be blanketed
when standing in draft or in the
rain, using a cloth or rubber blanket,
as the case may be. Alter a hard
drive and the horse has become heat
ed do not cover him for about five
minutes, letting him steam. Then put
on light blanket; allow this to re-
main half an hour then remove this
and put on your heavy one. This
gives the animal warm, dry covering
after you have removed the light
blanket which is wet from the steam
of the horse. A thorough rubbing
first, if convenient, is excellent.
In blanketing your horse see that
the blanket is sufficiently large to
cover the animal from neck to tail;
see also that the breast flaps are suffi-
cient to protect this sensitive part, and
that the sides and flank are fully pro-
tected. If not do not buy it at any
price.

Rape for Hogs.

G. S. Dunning speaks in very com
plimentary terms of his success with
rape as hog pasture. He says:
"Hogs fed on rape alone will not
gain a pound. On the first of May, a
year ago, put twenty pigs on rape and
kept them there until the last of Sep
TENDER, covering period of $50 days.
The pigs weighed about twenty pounds
each when put on the rape, gained
half pound per day during the period
and averaged about 95 pounds when
they came out and were ready to
fatten.
81 figure that these pigs cost about
So each, rape about As cents and $1.15
for shorts and Stops. When they came
OH to feed they were worth about 81
last year l sowed IS pounds OF
rape, but this season over 400 pounds"
showing a clear gain of $2.05, or Sal
for the twenty pigs, all for less than
per hundred weight or $6.65 each,
nalf an acre of rape.

BANDING.

The use of bands to trap the full
grown larvae of this insect was the
only remedial measure of value be-
fore the use of arsenical sprays was
discovered. When an orchard has
been given good care, preventive mea-
sures have been fully carried out and
spraying is thoroughly done with a
gasoline-power outfit, it is unnecessary
to use bands. If, however, the trees
are old, have cracks and holes in the
trunks and branches, and are close to-
