"Rats!" but its true story just the
same. In Rice and Middle Forks town
ships a weeks competitive hunt result
ed in the death of over 1000 rodents
that had been waxing fat in the corn
cribs and destroying much farm prop
erty. Two sides were made up from the
two townships, 16 men to the side, the
north siders being captained by N. V.
Tyrrel and the south siders by Elmer
Defenbaugh. The south siders had an
easy victory, bringing forward 1850 rat
tails to show the number of rats they
had killed. The north siders killed
something less than 1000, and did not
bring all the tails to the count, knowing
they we're beaten, but contended them
selves with registering count of 476.

Two sons of Don Leonard, a farmer of
Taylor county, taught their father a
valuable lesson this year in raising
corn. The father had not been careful
of seed corn, but last spring the boys,
against the fathers advice, paid $500 a
bushel for seed corn. On the thirty
five acres planted by them, the corn
averaged seventytwo bushels per acre,
while their fathers corn averaged
thirty-fvs to forty bushels. Now the
old CONT is willing that they should pay
$1,000 bushel for their seed corn, if
they want to.

troll OF that province.
That this position might receive the
continued support OF the neutral powers,
copies OF the note were forwarded to tho
respective Chinese representatives. 3
Before sending this notification the
! Chinese government addressed to It's
sviceroys, governors and diplomatic rep
resentatives abroad Il long list OF ques-
tons about Nlanchnria, asking their
opinions regarding the steps the govern
