FISH NEsTS.

Ia the middle of the North Atlantic
lbere is an area of comparatively still
water almost equal to Continental Ear
ope in extent, and more or less covered
with h1stiug sesweed. 1t was known as
the Mar de Sirgsco to Columbus and the
early nsvigators, and is the SargsssO
sea of modern geogrsphers.
The h)atiug seaWeed was formerly
supposed to have grown near the B aha
ma aud Florida shores, aud to have
drifted to its present position. 1t is now,
however, known to grow and propagate
itself where it is found. In 1t srs found
globular masses OF weed containing fish
eggs aud known IS 6sh nests.
Recent investigations show that the
floating weed of the Sargasso sea is the
chosen breeding place Of species OF flying
6sh. The eggs found In the nests were
attributed to certain species of fish found
resting on them, but careful txRmiCatiOn
of The eggs, as G. A. Boulepger points
out, shows that they really belong to
flying fish.
Apparently. however, the flying fish
do not make the nests themselves.
Each end of the egg Of these fish Is fur
uished with punches Of very long fla
mentsry teudriIs, and by means Of these
the 6uely divided branches Of the Slr-
gsssum weed have been caught together
In globular masses. The eggs may be
said to have made their own nest.

Developments that may make
the Pearl mining district, about II
miles east of Emmett, one of
the most active camps in the west
and productive of great values in
gold and silver ore. are expected
soon as the result of a recent visit
to that section OF an eastern mining
engineer, Harry L. Neall, who in
spected Pearl properties in the in
terest of Philadelphia capitalists.
Not only will NealPs visit result
in opening several properties that
are known to be valuable. it is stat
ed, but it is said, will eventually
culminate in the beginning of
coal mining industry at Horseshoe,
Bend that will be the means of
opening up the coal fields in that
vicinity to supply this entire sec
tion with fuel at a much less cost
than coal can now be purcha sed.

WANT A sCHOOLAOUsE
West Emmett Petitions for =
Grade Building.

Residents OF the Emmett Inde
pendent school district living west
of the Farmers canal want q
school house built in that end ol
the district and have petit;oned
the school board with that objec,
in view.
According to the preamble OF
the petition there are SO children
of school age in the territory west
of the ditch Some of these chill
dren live three miles from the cen
t1al school building and the petit
TONERS claim that it is a hardship
for those who are old enough to
make the trip every day, and is al
most prohibitive for small children.
The petition was referred back
to the petitioners with the request
that data be furnished showing
how many pupils would attend
West Emmett schoolhouse if it
were built. If the PRAYER of the
petitioners should be granted, 1t is
probable building similar in size
to the East school would be deeid-
ed upon and that only the first
three or four grades would be
taught there. The board is in
doubt as to whether there ere
children in that section
who are eligible to attend those
grades to warrant the additional
expense. Several of the trustees
claim il would be less expensive to
carry the pupils in wagons to and
from school. This plan is being
adopted quite generally throughout
The East.
1t is claimed the centralization
Of schools results in more thorough
Instruction at less expense than the
I'D method of scattered school
1ouses. The action of the board
will depend upon the showing
made by petitioners.

Hartley's Nursery for Trees.

For SO many years that the
memory of Canyon County citizens
runneth not to the contrary has
the Hartley nursery been known.
1t has established an enviable rep
utation for choice stock and fair
dealing. c. P. Hartley, the pro-
piietor is practical horticulturist.
He knows by actual experience the
best variety of fruit and shade
trees to plant in this section and
has accordingly large stock of
those varities. His stock has this
advanti ge over nurseries in other
states, his trees do not need to be
acclimated. They are natives.
His prices are very reasonable, and
he guarantees his goods. His
nursery is located mile east of
town on the Pearl road. Call and
make your selections early.
