Doubleheader AT
League Grounds

This afternoon at the League
grounds there will be two fine games
Of ball, and the one between the
Artillery and the N. G. II. should
prove to be real snappy, exciting
exhibition Of the national game.
Although the Guards will be MI
nus couple OF THEM best players
owing to he fact that they are away
with the rife team. the bunch that
will turn out this afternoon will be
truly representative one.
The boys from Fort Ruger are re-
ported to be fine combination Of
bali tossers. bu tBarry's Beauts are
there with the goods every time.
and the result will be one grand
game this afternoon.
When the Guards are really on
the job things are likely to happen,
but they have had very little prac-
tice lately, and the gunners may
possibly have chance against them
that's the way the genial Ser
geant Barry figures II out.
There will. no doubt. be a large
crowd OF fans present. as the SOL
diers are all interested In the game
between the Guards and Gunners.
The men who man the guns will
have great number " rooters. and
the Guards. OF course. viii have
their usual following.
The second game between the
Punahous and Kamehamehas should
also be a fine one. as both teams are
now settled down to play, ball in
earnest. and all the players are
showing good form. ,-
1 AS soon as the first game Is pau
the second will start, and anyone
who cannot manage to get out to
the grounds at about I:i5 can
easily make the second game. which
starts at $3.50 o'clock.
A great number Of tickets have
been cold for this afternoons games
and the crowd promises to he rec
ord one for this season. The Ar.
tillery have bought biG, -bsnch- Of
tickets and will be present In force
to stir up things on behalf OF theiI
comrades.

INDIAN GIRL AND HER TRAVELS.
As a Government Ward She Is Protected
on Long Overland Journey.

Under the watchful paternal eye Of the
United States government Miss Matilda
Hancorne, a shapely and beautiful II
dian girl whose home is at Orick, Hum
boldt county, completed a wearisome
journey across the continent Sunday.
Miss Hancorne has been student at
the United States Indian school at Car
Isle, Pa, and when she decided to re-
turn to her California mountains Supt.
NJ. Friedman at once began to pave
the way for a safe and pleasant journey
for his charge. Elizabeth Howell, an
other student, was coming west as far
as Ello, New, and Friedman put the two
girls on the train armed with all man
ner Of letters and credentials. In the
meantime he had sent letters ahead Of
the girls to assure their accommodations
on the way.
Aside from her inexperience in travel
ing there was little need of the federal
government taking such precautions re-
garding Miss Hancorne's journey, for
she is a bright, wideawake girl who
speaks English perfectly and bears her
self with an independent carriage. If
there is anything about her to attract
attention in a crowd it is her striking
beauty and the perfect taste with which
she dresses.
The girl sailed for Eureka on Tuesday
She will have to stage it thirty-fve miles
over rough roads. San Francisco

Concerninu Hogs

hog is a hog frequently because he
Is given no opportunity to be cleanly
and decent There are farmers who
believe a hog would die If not allowed
to wallow in mud and filth, while 9th
ers are Of the opinion that the hog
should have plenty OF clean water. The
hog needs a great deal of water in hot
weather, and If be cannot get it he
will take mud as the next best thing.
4 hog rushes to a mudhoIe to cool
off. He comes out and the mud dries
On his skin. The next mud bath he
takes adds another layer to that al
ready dried on, and in q short time
the pores Of his skin are completely
clOgged with mud. Now, a hog cannot
thrive with his pores all clogged up
any better than man. II a hog has
access to a deep pool Of water. as he
should in hot weather, he will keep
clean and thrive much more than if
he lies around in q mudhole made
filthy by continued use. Most farmers
who supply a bathing place for their
hogs make them SO shallow that they
are soon converted into mudholes. On
our farm we usually keep from thirty
to fifty pigs, and they have a pool of
water fed by a stream, and it is deep
enough for them to swim in. The
sides are dug down sharply, and were
laid with cobblestones for a distance
Of four or five feet from the water
edge. The pool was always clean; we
never have trouble with mango or lice.
and when on two occasions cholera
swept through the country our hogs
were not affected. The hogs never
used the pool unless the weather was
extremely hot

Gilhert'S Retnrt-

w. s. Gilbert does not retain all of his
humor for use in his librettos
In the early days of his success, when
Gilbert and Sullivan were considered by
managers as the sure winners in the
comic opera field, Il young woman who
was member Of one of the "Pinafore"
companies wrote to Gilbert telling him
OF her approaching marriage with a
young man of good position and family.
Gilbert congra tulated the young wom-
an and expressed the hope that her flu
ture might be prosperous and happy.
Only little more than a month passed
and another letter from the same girl
reached him, in which she stated the en-
gagement with the young man had been
broken and that she had accepted anoth-
er sutton.
He replied that he had every conf
dence III her Judgment, and again ex-
pressed his hearty wishes for her wei
fare.
1t was almost two months after that
Gilbert received a third letter from the
same girl, who informed him that young
Lord -- had proposed and that she
had accepted him after breaking her en-
gagement with No. >.

Western Canada's Happy Prospects,.

Western Canada's Happy Prospects,.
In no year since the development Of
Western Canada began has spring
brought brighter outlook than it
brings this year. In no preceding
spring has there been greater assur-
ance Of advancing development and
prosperity. The movement Of immigra-
ton has already assumed large proper
tons, and is as desirable in character
as it is satisfactory in volume; from
across the Atlantic sturdy, industri-
Gus and thrifty newcomers are arriY-
ing in large numbers, homeseekers
from Ontario and the other older
provinces are coming in a steady
stream, and from across the interna-
tional boundary a movement is already
in full flow which, it is confidently
predicted, will beat the records Of all
previous years; special settlers trains
are crossing the line, loaded with eff
fects, actual material wealth being
thus brought into the country at the
rate of millions of dollars worth
monthly.
The movement is SO unprecedently
large that extra Dominion Immigra
ton officials have had to be provided
at both North Portal and at Emerson,
and it is estimated that the total num-
beI of new settlers from the United
States this year will be 10000 at least,
and may run well up toward 100000.
Last years total of new settlers from
the South was 53,723; thus the area
that will be placed in wheat and other
grains this year will greatly exceed
that of last year. Settlers are making
extraordinary efforts to get on their
lands and begin seeding operations.
The price of wheat now, away above
the dollar. mark, is incentive enough,
and when one has in view the splen-
did results that the past few years
have shown, it is not to be wondered
at that the present will be the banner
year for immigration to Canada. Ask
your nearest Canadian government
agent for rates of transportation, and
be will also send you illustrated

A CINCH FOR UNCLE SAM.
About $4,000, 900 Profit from the Mint
Last Year.


While Uncle Sam makes the gold coin
practically without cost to the owner of
the bullion, he makes sufficient profit
Called Seigniorage) on the silver coinage
and the nickels and pennies manufac-
tured at his mints during the year to do
a great deal more than pay all expense
OF maintaining the minis and assay Of
ices.
He buys the silver, nickel and copper
at its bullion value, which in the case of
silver costs about half the face value of
the coin made from it. The actual cost
OF nickel or five cent piece at the pres
ent price of metal, including the labor
and contingent expenses, is about two
htths of a cent each, and the cost of Il
one-cent piece, including metal, labor,
etc, is about one-ffth of a cent each.
In addition to the profits on silver and
minor coinage, says the National Maya
zine, the government has a source Of
revenue and profit from charges for re-
lining deposits of gold and silver, charges
for the alloy used in making the coin,
aSSaylng, making medals, sale of by
products from the refining operations
and the coming of money for other gov
ernmentS.
The total earnings of the mint and as
say service for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1908, was $10,942, 9Q0.9S
while the total expenditures for the en-
tire service, including salaries, wages of
workmen, contingent expenses and the
loss in operations, amounted to $685.
S43.24, leaving a total profit of SS,9S7,-
O57.74. OF this income for the term
above stated the seigniorage on the sill
yer coinage was $S,713,4 13.35 and the
SelgnlOrage on the minor coinage for the
same period was $1.530, O29.42.

For an even distribution of the draft
the proper point Of attachment of the

attached closer to the nose end Of the

tachment of the chain to the pillow is
80 degrees the left hand double tree
should be attached to the main piece

Gently been much advocated rs 2 sub
stitute for fumigationwithh ydrocyanic
acid gas. The station at Geneva, n Y,
finds. however, that this treatment, if
used at all, must be handled with care
to secure scale destruction without in
juring the trees. With the sulphur
wash exposure of the trees for too
long time or at too high temperature
resulted in injury; while with any of
the materials used, exposure Of the
roots to the mixture resulted in serious
injury to the stock. For nurserymen
the station still recommends fumigation
as most effective and least liable to
injury, and would advise orchardists
to use the Hme-sulphur as a spray
after the trees are set, rather than as
a Clip when they are receiyed.-Farm
