for a man to have 40 to 1870
acres. He can do just as we'll with
80 or 40 acres if he manages it
properly So says a farmer of
three years experience once in
Minnesota, in letter to the ST.
Paul Farmer. Before going onto
this land the man worked in the
city as a painter and paper hanger.
He has 30 acres, 10 of which are in
meadow, 1 5 acres field and the bal
ancc timber. Of the field he uses
about 10 acres for corn and the rest
for clover, oats, potatoes, mango
bects, garden truck, etc. He has
$50 hens, 5 COWS and some young
stock, nine head or more and a
team of horses. He raised all the
feed for his stock on his own farm.
He closes his letter with the follow
ing words:
Many young man is making a
sad mistake when he does not look
for a farm home instead of seeking
work in the towns and cities.
Every young man without great
amount of capital or paying bust
ness or profession, should got q
piece of land and work it and live
on it. He will be happier and more
independent.

BOUNTIFUL SUPPLY OF.
FISH FOR THIS STATE
CONGRESSMAN French Wants $4,000 for
Erection of Fish Hatchery
in Idaho.

Congressman French introduced a
bill in the house during the last
session of congress providing for
an appropriation of SIS, 600 for a
fish hatchery in Idaho. He re-
ceived favorable report on his bill
from the committee on merchant
marine and fisheries TO which it
was referred, but the rush of work
in congress during the last session
on account of the many important
matters pi evepted the bill from be-
ing considered. However, as this
is a part of the same session OF con-
gress. the previous favorable report
secured by Mr.. French is still be-
fore the house, and IT will not be
necessary for another bill to be in
troduccd or another report secured
to cntitlc the bill 10 consideration
at this session of congress. Mr..
French will make an effort to have
his bill passed soon after the holt
days, and says he has good hopes oil
succeeding. The people of Idaho are
greatly interested in stocking the
rivers. streams and lakes of the
state with fish, says Mr.. French,
and he has received great many
requests for fish with which to
stock those streams. In all case:
they have been secured tor ths
persons applying for them. Mr.
French has been notified by the fish
commission that he can have all the
fish desired with which to stock
and as the commission has all kinds
of fish, persons applying can Sc
cure the kind of stock that is bes
for the particular lake or stream
to be stocked. Twin Falls News.

more than anything else in the world
if you should have an attack OF
rheumatism or bladder trouble or any
arrangement of the kidneys whatever.
The prescription is simple and can

ingredients can be had at every good
prescription pharmacy and all that is
necessary is to shake them well in a
bottle.
Here it is: Fluid extract dandelion,
one-half ounce; compound kargon.
one ounce; compound syrup of sarsa-
parilla, three ounces.
Take a teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime. A few doses is said
to relieve almost any case of bladder
trouble, frequent urination, pain and
scalding, weakness and backacne, pain
above the kidneys, etc. 1t is now
claimed to be the method Of cur
ing chronic rheumatism, because of
it's direct and positive action upon the

ROBBERS LOOT A MAIL WAGON
Thieves Steal Registered Packages
From Vehicle at Hour When
Streets Are Crowded.

CHICAGO. March 5.-A mail wagon
tered letters of value estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, was stolen
from in front of police headquarters at
an hour when the streets were crowd
with its locks broken and mail sacks
missing, was found four miles distant.
The wagon contained deposits of
mail left after the closing hours of
banks. brokers and operators on
change. The stations it gathered mail
from were the stock exchange, board
of trade, the heart Of the wholesale
produce district, the Masonic temple
and the heart of the retail district of
State street. The fact that the theft
occurred Saturday night on day
when many offices close at noon and
the money kings deposit their most
valuable mail Immediately after bank,
ing hours, probably prevented the loss
from being much greater.
The wagon began to travel over its
route at p. M. 1t collected four large
pouches at the board of trade. Then
it proceeded to the Masonic temple
and picked up two other sacks. At the
South water street station it got four
well filled bags. When it stopped at
the stock exchange the driver, Charles
L. Patterson. entered the building and
taking the contents of one mail box to
the wagon he emptied them into the
sacks reserved for that building. He
returned to get the remainder and at
ter a few minutes returned again to
the sidewalk. The horse and wagon
were nowhere in sight.
The startled collector ran to the cor
ner and looked in the four directions OF
the two streets. FOrty-four stations
started detectives in search of the rig
The robbery is the third big one
within four years Burglars tunneled
under the temporary building on the
lake front and carried away $4,000 in
stamps; two years later wagon con-
tanning registered letters and packag-
es valued at $4,000 was stolen from in
front of the Masonic temple. The
thieves escaped in both cases.

"deadheads" Or sunken logs at the bot
tom of the Mississippi river, Fabulous
| wealth, represented by the untold num-
Der of logs that have been accumulat-
ing along the river for decades, awaits
the men who reclaim it from the
depths.
1t is believed that the river bottom
is literally paved with logs from st.
Anthony falls almost to its source. For
the last 40 years from 5OO,OO0,0O0 to
500 900 900 feet of logs have been
fioated down the river, and the num-
Der that have gone to the bottom is
beyond estimating. For more than $50
miles the bottom of the river is lined
with logs.
1t has been demonstrated that logs
may be raised with great profit. Wal
lace A. Burt and others have been con-
templating for some time the advisa-
bility of hosting these logs, and with
that object in view have laid their
plans before a number of the lead
ing lumbermen. The plan is to raise
sH0 loSS W iAoASShA6 Gig AlSo anu AeAAN
them ashore, where a government Of
fetal will scale and record the marks
found on them. When the original
owner can be found ne will be COM
pensated for the logs at the rate Of IS
a thousand feet. This represents just
so much "velvet" to the owners and
still leaves a margin of profit to the
holsters, who can find ready market
for the reclaimed logs at from $12 to
$14 a thousand feet
The logs that became deadheads or
"sinkers' are chiefly of the small Nor
way pine variety, known to lumber
men as pig IRON Norway. They sell
dom get to be more than eight to II
inches through at the butt and are
heavy and soggy. Rivermen say that
a great many of these sink before leav-
ing the landing, few of them dead
head it down stream for a way, one
end bobbing above water until, thor
oughly water soaked, they sink to rise
no more. Some of these bObbers sue

percentage Of them go to the bottom.

long ago a 800 dollar bill was put in
circulation by man who was wise
enough not to make more than two Of
them month. He did the work with
pen and ink, and turned out such a re-
markably faithful reproduction that he
passed many of them without difficulty.
But one day he went into a saloon to
buy drink of whiskey and laid one of
his bills on the bar. A drop of water
was spilled on the note and the ink ran.
By the time the bartender had the bill
between his fingers the maker thereof
was down the street, but a policeman
caught him.
i In the making of greenbacks there is
one thing that always stumps the coun-
terfeiter; this is the secret process by
which the tiny threads are woven into
the paper. The counterfeiters' way of
getting the threads into their produc-
| ton is to make the note out of two
pieces of paper pasted together with
| the threads between. A new $40 note
recently put into circulation was made
this way, but the color was a blush
green instead of a real green. However,
that would not have been detected by
| the ordinary man, unless accidently by
comparison with a good note of the
same denomination. The government
is so strict about this matter of coun-
terfeiting that it is crime even to
make piece Of paper the size and tex
ture of bank note, though there is
nothing on it but the threads. The SEN
tence for counterfeiting is given to the
man who goes only this far.
Americans Have Monopoly.
The man who works alone counter
feiting usually passes the coin himself
or he may sell it to those whose bust
ness it is to pass it, his profit being
95 cents on the dollar. When there is
a gang of these fellows, there is one
who makes the DOODLE" one who car
ries it and one who passes it, The one

COUNTERFEIT MONEY IS SCARCE

The last report issued by Chief Will
kie, of the secret service in Washing
ton, shows that there is a decided
slump IN counterfeiting. Never before
has there been so little illegitimate coin
made, says the New York World
BY getting the cooperation of about
100 banks, Chief Wilkie found that in
every 100000 Of American money there
was from $3.50 to $500 of counterfeit
coin. And this estimate, as compared
with a similar one obtained four or
five years ago, shows that the business
of counterfeiting is on the wane. The
probable reason of this is that the ex-
perts are getting the work of detection
down to such a fine point that it is
almost impossible to fool them. The
men in the secret service can tell not
only the most perfect imitation, but
every one of these doodle makers
also whose work it is. if the counter
feiter has been in business before. For
leaves on his product some distinctive
mark of his own workmanship, which is
thus easily recognized
New Works Bad Notes.
New York is the busiest center in the
secret service because of the enor-
nous amount of business done and the
amount of money that changes hands
every day, and it is in the metropolis
that most of the counterfeit bank notes
are made. In the west the largest
amount of gold coin and silver dollars
are made.
Strangely enough, the most profitable
coins to counterfeit are pennies, be
cause for an expenditure of IS cents
100 of them can be made, which leaves
profit of 81 cents on the dollar. The
chief difficulty is in getting them into
circulation. 1t also takes expert work
manship to make these pennies. be-
cause they must be made with die
The best counterfeiters pay most OF
their attention to the making of quar-
ters, half dollars and dollars. With
silver at 60 cents an ounce a counter
feiter can make five quarters from
every ounce, quarters that ring true
and have every appearance of their rea
thing. The counterfeiter who uses base
metal can put enough cooper in the
mixture to make the ring perfect!

 As they did so a short arm stroke took one of them a vigorous tap in the solar pleXus. By a deIsarte movement he induced the offender to lay down for a moment. When he arose again a hypnotic pass was made before his face and he went to sleep. Two more sturdy characters then sought the limelight that gleamed from a sickly star and one of them in an instant beheld a million electric lights while the other ducked and fell back.
