sCRTBEs GET TOGETHER,
Seven of Newspaperinen's Nine Have
 Short Snappy Practice.

The scrlbes turned out for their first practice yesterday afternoon at Weidemann's lot. As the ono who was to bring the paraphernalia along with him, failed to put fin an appear ance, the newspaper men made their own baseball outfits and started im- mediately to practice Only seven men showed up, but this fact did not keep the rest from playing. A round piece of wood was obtained which was used as bat and was good, as long as 1t lasted. The fact that those present caught the ball bare-handed only made 1t more inter- esting. The way those fellows stop ped hot liners and nabbed the high ones, would be enough to create a lit- tic frigidness about the lower pedal extremities of the aldermen. If gloves had only been passed around. not one hit ball would have csc tped.
 However, after practice, the scribes awoke to tho fact that they had dis abled a few fingers and thumbs and also that there was an unusual swell ing of the palms. This fact, no doubt, will prove an explanation, If practice will not be had for a few days.
 Those present were Haight, Robin son, Goldstein, Barry, Koletsky Wohlmaker, Phillips.
 A meeting for the organization of the team will be held Tuesday after noon at the city hall, at o'clock. All candidates for the team report at this time.

Deafness Cannot be cured

by local application, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation "a
be token out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

GRADUATE IN !
A MAGAZINE
FORMER STUDENT AT uNIvER-
siTY OF WYOMING DISCUSSES
PHASES OF DRY FARMING.
Elias Nelson, Member Of the Class Of
1898, Writes for Pacific Monthly
Of Conditions Al They Occur in
Utah, Pioneer Dry-Farmins state
Of Inter-Mountain Section.

A few days ago notice was taken In
these columns of a very able scientific
article by Charles Gilmore, a graduate
of the University of wyoming, appear
|ig in a monograph of the Geological
Survey lately received at the Carnegie
public library. Upon the tables of the
reading rooms at the library is also
the July number OF the Pacific Month
ly, Of which n Of the principal ar
ticles is "Dry-Land Farming in the
West" written by another graduate of
the university, Elias Nelson, class Of
1898.
Well illustrated.
The article is an extended one and
is well Illustrated. Beginning with a
story of how, twenty years ago, an
honest farmer of Utah was lodged In
Jail and placed under $4,000 bond up
on a charge of perjury because he
swore that a certain tract of land was
not desert land. but would produce
crops without irrigation, and showing
that that same piece of land is pro-
ducing at the present time thirty-ive
bushels of wheat per acre, Mr.. Nelson
sketches the growth of the science of
dry farming up to today.
Utah as Pioneer.
The writer gives great credit to the
work of the Mormon colonies in Utah,
and to Brigham Young, who is report
ed to have p~rophesied that some day
the land above the irrigation canals
in the Cache valley would produce
crops. Utah is spoken of as being the
pioneer not only in irrigation, but in
dry farming. The progress made in
each of the western states is described,
and the principal factors making for
success OF failure in various localities
pointed out.
Opinions Of Experts.
Mr.. Nelson gives careful short de-
scriptions of the most important meas
advocated by dry-farming experts
and also states the various crops
which have been found the most sue
cessful under the methods now used.
Mr.. Nelson graduated from the Uni
versity of Wyoming with the class of
'98. and some years later took a mas
ter's degree also. He held a position
with the agricultural station here for
some years. Later he secured a gov
eminent appointment as an irrigation
expert at a station in Utah. and being
now in charge of a government dry
station in Idaho.
