hopper. 1t is perfectly safe to say
that in the course of a few days she
carried hundreds of destructive in
sects to this one nest, besides what
she would eat for herself. The same
thing was doubtless being done by
hundreds of robins within the radius
of mile. Without the aid of the rob-
ms and other birds we should be ruin
ed by the insects that they destroy.
Let us have a care how we kill off
the birds lest we suffer far worse
than the loss of few cherries. No
body with my permission kills robins
on my ranch.
Mrs. S. F. Thompson, OF Duckabush,
Wash, who is a valuable patron of
The Ranch, writes as follows under
date of July %: 81 have read several
articles in your paper regarding our
native birds and their uses. l wish
to say that we find the robin, at least,
one of our most destructive birds
among our cherries, raspberries,
strawberries and blackberries. The
blue jay is just too annoying. The
way he eats our peas and digs up our
potatoes and destroys plums and even
apples is simply a fright. wish some
kind reader would tell me how to get
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1906-09-01

rid of the blue jay and robin. I love
to hear the robin sing early and late,
but l can't sell his song. 1t seems
to me that there are thousands of
birds here of all kinds and l know
that some of the smaller ones are a
real blessing"
There are a number of inquiries
that must await the next issue. We
are glad to have them come in and
will attend to them in due time. The
further consideration of fertilizing by
the use of legumes will also be taken
up in our next issue.
There is no material change in the
crop prospect from what was given in
our last issue. The markets are some
what overrun with summer apples,
but there is very encouraging in
quiry about high grade winter apples.
Peaches are high as I said they would
be. The outlook is very encouraging
for the grower who has good fruit and
can put it into market in good con-
dition. Don't neglect anything in
keeping your fruit clean of pests and
in properly sorting and packing it.

The Boy Knew How.

Boys often have longer heads thaa
they are given credit for. Many Of
the worlds most important inven.
tians are due to the idea of some
bright boy. The following incident
is good illustration of boy-sense,
and shows that even farm lad may
know something about tho machinery
and the laws of motion.
Not long ago, On Western railroad
while .rain was running down grade,
one Of the side.rods on the locomotive
broke. When the train was stopped
ct the foot of the grade and the broken
rod uncoupled, it was found that the
injured rod on the other side was ex-
sotly "on oenter," aud it was impos-
oible to etart the engine. The engi-
neer, the conductor aua several pus.
ssngers suggested several ways 10
start the train, but without result.
4. Let . farmers boy crawled
through The fence and came over: cay
ing:
why don't you let her go 'ker-
chunk u
'tWhst?" asked the conductor, not
oomprehendipg his meaning.
"Why, let her 60 'kerohunk'! Un-
hitch the last car and shove her up
the grade aways. Then let her come
down 'kerohunk' against the train.
Thatll bump her along aome."
The railroad men smiled contempt
ously, but the passengers sided With
the boy, so at last il was decided TO
try his scheme. All hands turned in
and pushed the last car little way up
che hill. Then il was sent, with in.
creasiug speed, back against the train,
which it struck "kerchuuk." The
''kerohunk" did the work. The en-.
gine was bumped off center, tho eugi.
neer gave it enough steam to keep it
slowly moving, the passengers ,scram-
bled aboard, and the one.sided engine
lin led away on it's journey.

consumptive Englishmau showed up
at the post. He was friend of the

when my orders came he asked
to go along. He was still strong

Il remember that the Euglishmen

sldes; and in :en seconds 300 Indians
were riding over US. They had mur-

them back. We lost elk killed.
when We mad time TO look about
for dead and wounded I thought of
my English friend. He was nowhere
in sight. I supposed, Of course, that
he had been killed, aud I started
scouts to look for his body.
They found him lying under a
brush. The trooper who saw him

he was alive and unhurt, but cry.

Texas Yearlinos for Export.

Among Mondays sales of fat cattle
was one load of prime Texas yearlings
that were bought for export at $3.50.
1t is quite an unusual thing for you
1t is quite an unusual thing for yearl-
ing cattle to go for expert, but these
were out of the ordinary. They We're
bred by j. E. Boog- Scott and prepared
for market by that artist in the cattle
feeding business, John Imboden OF De-
catur. III. Commenting on this sale,
an old timer in the cattle trade said:
II can remember we'll when exporters
would not look at anything weighing
less than 1900 lbs, and the heavier they
were the better. That was In the days
when heavy cattle were the most popu-
lar in our markets. In the past twenty
years there has been a, great change
in the market for the character of the
cattle wanted for the block and grad
ually the weight has diminished until
the popular demand is for baby beef"
Cattle receipts were entirely too
large for the outlet Wednesday and
the bad weather had the effect Of
weakening the demand. Buyers said
it was so unreasonable that it was
hard to keep meat and they preferred
to cut their purchases down as much as
possible. Included in the days sup
ply were some of the best cattle that
have been offered this year.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1906-12-06

ing to do this it resulted in burdening
them financially and in a general way
Tightening money conditions in this 10
cality. We think this is largely over
come and that conditions are now
pr me.
One effect that northern land specu-
lation had upon values here was to
keep them down. The local farmer
here had tied himself in northern
lands to the extent that he felt like
selling his holdings; here to enable him
to take care of his northern property.
In consequence of this, lan1 was Of
fered freely here and prices have not
advanced here prorortionate with other
parts of the state. We have an excel
lent farming country, and right now
is the time to buy farm lands in this
vicinity. 1t seems certain that the next
few years will see an advance OF $25
to $40 an acre in the price of lands
here. Lands that are now selling here
for $50 are every bit as good and bet
ter than the land selling for 500 in
other parts of Iowa and for s125 and
better in Illinois.

RE-EsTABLlsHlNG ORANGES.
Hope to Again Make It an Industrial
Force,

Force.
Special t. Times Republican.
Iowa City, Dec. 5.-The re-establish-
ment of the grange in Iowa as factor
in the industrial life of the Hawkeye
state is the purpose of l.. J. Tabor. or
Ohio who has just been visiting IN this
city for several days past. Mr.. Tabor
has Just returned from the national
meeting of the representatives of the
various oranges in the United States,
which has been held at Denver, and re-
ports a rapid growth in all parts Of
the country. He declares that the in
crease in the membership Of the grange
turnout the United States is due to the
realization by many people of the fact
that the consumer is the only indus
trial force not unorganized, and that
the consumer must organize in order to
meet successfully the exactions of the
producers.
While the grange as an Industrial
force has been dead in Iowa for twenty
years past. there has been development
along certain lines that is directly
supplying its place All over the Hawk
eye state the farmers and workingmen
have been uniting in the erection OF
mutual elevators and the establishing
of mutual banks and stores. In sew
era1 places all three institutions have
been established under one head. but
more often has been found more prac-
ticable to organize the three institu-
lions under separate heads. Whether
the grange will attempt to enter the
field already occupied by the farmers
eleya tors etc is something that Mr.,
Tabor is not willing to discuss just
now 1t is not believed, however, that
the. grange expects to establish itself
where the other arrangements have
already been made

Chicago. Dec. 6.-Cattle-There was
no urgency of demand from any quar-
ter on the regular market, more atten-
ton being directed by buyers to the
sale of show stuff advertised to take
place at 1890 o'clock. The fact that
all premium cattle of the show were 70
be disposed of. made bad market
for choice stuff, but as there was only
a small percentage of this stuff, the
effect was not very noticeable. Prices
We're about steady.
There Is u weak demand for stock
ers and feeders from the local buyers
tho the country demand is rather
strong. Yesterday the market was not
quotably changed, but the feeling was
one of weakness, and sellers We're dis
appointed with the outlet. The bad
weather kept visitors away from the
pens during the early part of the day,
and not much was done up to noon
Late yesterday some good heavy steers
sold at $4.45, and good many went
at s404.35. The chief demand was for
the good strong weight feeders.
Hogs.
A good, strong. active market WIS
the result of fair buying movement
on the part of the shippers, and tae
support which the big packers gave to
trade. A top of $3.50 was paid and in
dications We're that the market would
be fully sc higher than the averages of
the previous day.
Sheep.
Lambs We're in demand. but the qaa.-
ity was so inferior that it did not look
as tho there would be any very high
prices paid. Sellers experienced no di--

WAS DIVORCE IN 1866 LEeALe
Claim to an Estate Hinges on Question
of Old Records.

Special To Time 7"ouhlican.
Mason City. Dec. 6.-Was divorce
said to have been granted in 1855 le-
gal? That is a question that is to be
solved by the courts here in order to
decide on the legality of a claim made
to an estate
An interesting case is now on trial
before Judge Smith in the district
court which involves the title of block
8, in lot 10, Felt's plat of Mason City,
claimed and now occupied by Mrs.
Mary E. Vaughn, but also claimed by
her daughter, by a a former husband,
Mrs Emeline Warath, now resident
of Kansas. Mrs. Walrath bases her
claim upon the property, which is val
ued at $4,000. as the heir of her father
from whom Mrs. Vaughn secured a di-
vorce in 1866 and who since is deceas-
ed The case is to quiet the claim OF
Mrs Walrath and has resulted In
bringing to light much ancient history
and old records that have been in the
archives of the county for nearly forty
years. The question hinges on the le-
gality of the divorce whom Mrs.
Vaughn secured divorce is seeking to
show was not in accordance to law.
When the divorce was secured the late
w. C. Stanbery, father of the Stanbery
Bros, and the late 1. W. Card. were the
attorneys for the litigants. 1t was then
in the days of the old chancery court
when a commission was appointed who
heard the testimony some time in Oc
tober of 1865 but did got report their
findings till June Of the following year.
Mrs. Vaughn is well known in the city.
She is now an aged woman and is
defending her right to her home. so
greatly needed in her advanced
years.
