Fertilizing With Alfalfa.

A. ]. Quackenbush, the sugar beet
culturist of this section, has already
begun to plan for the next season
beet crop.
He is undertaking venture that
has not been done before anywhere
in this entire section and the expen-
sive manner of handling his land for
the next years crop indicates his idea
OF how 1t pays to raise sugar beetss
He is now plowing an SO-acre field
of alfalfa ground on which there is a
second crop of alfalfa that would
harvest three tons per acre. This
crop of hay is being plowed under to
enrich the land and It is estimated
that more than $500 worth of hay will
be plowed under in this field.
Mr.. Quackenbush is a successful
beetraiser and he knows just what is
necessary to make the beet raising
pay, so 1t is very probable that this
venture will win for him In the end.

Gun Making a Record.

John Browning, aged 20. son of
G. n. Browning of the Gold Hill dis
trict, 20 miles east of Palouse, in
Idaho. was brought to the Harrison
hospital In this city this morning, suf-
fering from severe gunshot wound
inflicted by the accidental discharge
of n gun in his hands yesterday AFTER
noon.
Young Browning was herding sheep
and had taken 44-caliber rifle with
him, thinking he might sight cougar
which had been seen in the neighbor-'
hood several times. He was standing
on log with the butt of the gun rest
ing on the ground. when 1t was acci-
dentally discharged, probably by the
trigger coming in contact with the log
The bullet entered the right arm near
the shoulder. going upward through
the shoulder joint and lodging In the
back near the spine. DR.. w. c. Bran
don of this city, was called and maze
the boy as comfortable as possible
until this morning. when he was
brought to town The physicians nave
not been able to locate the bullet. The
Young mans recovery is considered
doubtful.
The same gun which injured young
Browning was accidentally discharged
two years ago in the hands OF Adam
Carrico, a neighbor, the bullet pierre
ing his forehead and causing him TO
lose the sight Of both eyes.-Paiouse

ably result, as the same question is
involved as in Judge Artman's decis-
ion: that the state has not the author
ity to license saloons.
The measure passed last evening
by the council is result of the fight
waged against the saloons by the an
ti-saloon people. The fight has been
in progress for several months and
was effective in Kidding the village of
two of the three saloons that have
been conducted in Meridian for some
time. 1t is understood that the State
Anti-Saloon league is back of the Me-
ridian league and proposes to see the
case through the courts, should the
saloon continue open after October l.
The action taken by the council was
under the general law which provides
that the right to regulate or prohibit
the selling Of liquor shall be vested in
the city council or board of trustees
of town or village.-Meridian Tri-

Short Line improvements.

The 100000 improvements being
put in here by the Oregon Short Line
are nearing completion and the beau
tiful new depot is now practically
completed. The plasterers will fin
ish their work in a short time and
then ontario will have as fine a depot
as can be seen anywhere along the
line. 1t is built of pressed brick and
concrete stone. and the architectural
plan of the building gives It an Inn
posing appearance.
Three months work about the On
tario railroad yards with large force
of men and teams has transformed
the place until even Uncle Dick Ruth
erford hardly knows 1t to be the same
old depot site.
Five sidetracks are to take the place
Of the one that was here and the new
park at the west side of the depot is
to be beautified and put into that
splendid appearance characteristic of
the o. s. L. yard parks.-Ontario

AS A LITTLE CHILD.

As a little child they are leading him,
For his hair is white and his eyes are
dim;
As a little child he is whispering low
To the fhantom friends Of long ago;
AS a little child he is wandering back
In fancy over the golden track
In the years that were and the days
that fled
He is dreaming the dream of the
dreamless dead!
Second childhood they call 1t. Yea!
Old heart grown young in the dream
of play,
Feeble footsteps and palsied hand
Are lost in the vision of childhood
land!
He hardly sees and he seldom hears,
But ever the voices of vanished years
Are singing sweet as they sang of old
In the gates of youth and the fields
of gold.

The bridge in the Boothe lane tnat
was smashed down Monday night by
a traction engine, was again wrecked
Tuesday evening. A man named
Jones, who has the contract for haul
ing the machinery for the Wallowa
Electric company, attempted to cross
the bridge, but before doing so he
put some extra braces under 1t and
then attempted to pull the wagons
over one at time. The first wagon
went over all right, but the train wag-
on, which was loaded with the 1900
pound fly wheel and some other
heavy pieces, smashed through. After
great difficulty the wagon was taken
out from the wreck. The bridge
