St Paul, July 6.-The opening OF the
fishing season in Minnesota has revealed
a condition of things almost unparal-
leied in the annals of this favorlte sport,

fishermen for some time that there was
an abundant supply of fish in the lakes

FISH CATCHES A SPARROW.

(Manistique Cor: Detroit Free Press.)
A report from the 500 tells of tragedy
ment park. II appears that the pond is
a congregating place for thirsty SPAR
rows and others of the smaller variety of
the fathered tribe. A sparrow was per
forming his ablutions when a big rain
bow trout got his eyes on him and Quicker
than a flash had the bird securely in
his jaws. The sparrow did his best to
escape but the fish had his victim Sc
cure and made a breakfast OF his catch.
The fate of their companion did not seem
to act as a warning TO his mates. for
the birds use the pond for drinking and
bathing with the same reckless impunity
as before the fatality.

State Advice on Poultry.
After receiving inquiries frol

After receiving inquiries from various parts of the state concerning the best way to raise chickens, the state department of agriculture gathered data o1 that subject and is prepared U give valuable information along that line.
 The instruction sent out ara that light Brahamas or Plymoata Rocks arc considered the most profitable chickens to raise in this state. The Brahma is the heavier of the two varieties.
 Healthy breeding is necessary. When young, chickens of either variety should not be exposed to the weather, but should be kept dry and raised on a floor, if possible, the floor to be covered with sand and straw. They should be given fresh water containing small amount of charcoal each day and vessels in which they are fed should be thoroughly cleaned daily. No sour feed from the day before should be fed.
 While being prepared for market the chickens should not be fed for 24 hours before kill ing, but should be given plenty of water. When placed on the market the craw will then be empty. The fowls should not be drawn when placed on the market.
 When these directions are fol- lowed, according to the agri- cultural department, the flesh of the fowl will have @ rich yellow color aud sell much more easily.

Daily Helps.

A pinch of salt improves cakes, candies and almost everything that is cooked.
 Salt on the fingers when clean ing meat, fowls and fish will prevent the hands from slipping.
 Starch made with soapy water prevents the irons from sticking and gives 8 better gloss to the linen.
 f If a teaspoonful of vinegar is added to the water in which fish is to be washed a most delicious flavor will be imparted to it.
 Cold baked potatoes, sliced, thin, then put in 8 baking dish with salt, pepper, butter and milk, make better scallop than raw potatoes.
 Food articles that are damp should never be left in ordinary paper. Paper is made of wood pulp, rags, glue, lime, and sini, lar substances intermixed with chemicals. When damp, it should not be allowed to come in contact with things that are to be eaten.
 Perseverance and q little printers ink can be made to work wonders sometimes.

 The wedding was quiet one, witnessed only by immediate relatives of the bride and groom and 8 few friends.
 After the ceremony and a shower of congratulations, a elegant dinner was served.
 Few of our young people have started out on the hymenial sea under more aus picious circum- stances than have Mr. and Mrs. Buell.. While the groom was bordering a little close upon bachelorbood, he is well prepar- ed from financial point to provide for the comfort of the prize he has captured. He need- ed only the sunshine of this lovely one to reach the zenith of mans earthly happiness.

Departed Monday.


 Many hearts were made sad and not few eyes were dimmed with tears, when E. c. Cooper and family took their leave on Monday afternoon for their new home at Oklahoma City.
 No family has departed from among us who have been held in higher or moro universal esteem and none have gone away expressing deeper regret.
 An informal reception was tendered Mr. and Mrs. Cooper and Miss Ora Warren at the home of w. P. Kirhham on Saturday evening, where a number of friends congregated to say good by and bid these good people godspeed in their new home. After refreshments were served, consisting of an abundance of ice cream and cake taken i'll. by the visitors, Mayor Butt as spokesman in behalf of the crowd made a very feeling address in which he expressed much regret that circumstances had conspir- ed to rob our town of such estimable people as the Ceoi ef family and the noble girl, who had decided to cast their lots in another state. He assured them that the hearty good wishes of all Green Forest would follow them into their new home.
 The we'll known oratorical powers of Mr. Cooper failed him in making his response. lie was too full for expression. He said his leave taking came about by force of circumstances, the firm by whom he is employed having assigned him to another territory. He said he could not hope (o find a more congenial location or @ better people than he waa leaving. While this had been only an adopted home, it had been home in tie trasst sense, and up to only few weeks ego he had never had one thought 0f leaving.
 Mir. Cooper has been :. resident of Green Forest for the past seven years and it is but juet to say of him that he has been 9 most upright and highly useful citizen.
