spent Sunday night at home. We are
always glad to see Clyde come home
as he is always ready to help to have
good time.
From the looks of B. c. Daugh.
drills eyes, he must have decided to
try another plan of committing side
ways. / don't think the collrad green

The Ice Plant RUNNING.

The Ice Plant of the Twin City

ever spent summer, for an ice
plant has now been frozen into the
real thing-cry stall ice. Ice frozen

is put the cleansing procs sses too
strenuous for the lus lest mic,o ODE
The distilling and boiling is done
fer the additional reason that good
ice can be frozen only from water
which has had all the air forced
out by boiling. The ice is frozen
in cans of such size as to make
cakes weighing 400 pounds. There
is room in the brine tank to freeze
about IS tons at time. The ca
pacity of the plant is 10 tons per
day. When distilled water is used
the cakes are so perfectly transpar-
ent you can read newspaper thru
thick cake. The freezing process
is caused by the ammonia gas ex-
banding absorbing the heat and
leaving the brine cold to freeze the
water in the cans.
All the machinery is working
fine and the freezing process is 60.

storage rooms are oe oiled to f de-

Il good many people here, writes, an.
sweriDg some OF the questions every
man who has grape vines planted
wants to know and we give his let
ter in full.
Lewiston, Idaho.
Mr.. Fay F. Dean.
kennewick,
Dear Sir:
Yours of 18th to hand. The
frost killed about Is per cent OF the
shoots on my vines; they were
from to / inches long; the higher
parts OF my vineyard were nearly
safe, the lower parts mostly killed.
This is the first time in 10 years
that l have grapes growing that |
have been injured by il spring frost.
1t is generally understood. and
Prof. Hussman in his book on
grape growing in California, gives
an instance of a total kill by frost
in the Napa valley. The undevel-
Oped buds did start and made half
a crop of smaller punches, which
will he u couple of weeks later in
ripening. l notice quite Il few
buds on my vines pushing now.
which would not haye started if
the we'll developed buds had not
been injured.
l would advise your growers
not to allow more than two of the
shoots that come from the roots to
grow, cutting out the balance of
them, those two will be for next
years bearing wood in case the
main shoot is killed, and let the
main branch alone for awhile, ii
it does not start soon now it will
he evidence that it suffered too
much from the freeze. and can he
cut away either this summer or
wait until fall pruning.
Prof. Hussman claims that by
rubbing off the frozen shoot from
the vine yOn can increase the num-
Ucr VI DuuS (ttuNcutiLlOuo UuuS)
that will start and bear qnite
markedly. have tried it on sew
eral acres. but it is too early to
Judge of results. wish some of
you would try it also, as it may be
valuable to know ii it is worth
while doing.
IhOpe your your people will not
become discouraged but take my
experience OF nineteen years ia con-
sideratiOn. Tine last three sea-
sons have been the worst in all
that time. and this certainly will
not last forever. Shall be glad to
hear from you as the season add
vances, how things are turning
out. Yours truly.

CHI11 HAND0OME ELK OF THE GROW TR1B4 amusement. The stock parade was 8 grand success. and the first prize was awarded to Takes-the-Gun. Mrs. Pret- ty Antelope won the first prize for meals and table, and the first prize for a we'll kept tepee went to Mrs. Joseph Stewart. Both these dusky ladies are full blood Indians, and neither has been to school or can speak word of Eng llsh. Takes-the- Gun brought in as his exhibit load of fine corn, grain, mel ons, pumpkins, squashes and other veg etables. Bird Horse had an equally fine outfit and drove splendid four horse team of bays. Pigs and chick ems were an interesting feature at the fair. There was a big industrial pa rade, in which nearly all the Indians joined, driving all kinds of farming outfits. The Indians who obtained pre- mlums were required to own their out fits and to have paid for them by their own efforts.
 The beet sugar industry, which is of such growing importance in the west, is one in which the red man takes much interest and to which he is we'll adapted. An average red man
 does not like to work alone. Sugar
 beet culture has an attraction for htm
 above most other forms of agriculture
 because it affords employment for his
 whole family at once. The wife and
 children. who are such large factors in
 his life, can work in the beet fields
 side by side with him. and even the
 little papoose can be taught to weed
 the rows, just as the plckaninny in the south can be used as cotton pick CT. It is for such reasons, as MT Leupp puts 1t, that '.the Indian takes to beet farming as naturally as the Italian takes to art or the German to science"
 Railroad construction is another branch of work in which the red men have proved good laborers. Railroad builders know the Indians as workers and are ready to pay them the white mans wages. The Indians are strong, silent and as one railroad boss puts 1t. 'have not yet learned to loaf when the boss back Is turned"
