Grangeville was destroyed by

The local option election held
this week in Bonner county re-
suited in a victory for the "drys"
by a 400 majority vote. The
county had been conceded to the
wet" forces but the acts of a
lot of hoodlums in trying to
break up dry meetings before
election resulted in change of
feeling with the above result.

to resurvey about forty miles of

believed that construction work
may be begun there this summer.
The local option election at
Asotin Tuesday resulted in a vic
tory for the "wets," the vote
standing 122 to rs in favor of
licensed saloons. The local OPP
tion law in Washington provides
for precinct option and the entire
county does not vote on the ques-
ton, as in Idaho. The election
was conducted quietly, though a
large vote was polled.
A rabid coyote recently enter
ed a building on John Platt's
ranch at the mouth of Deer Creek
south of Forest and attacked
several dogs, which killed the
animal. The dogs were all bit

the development of the disease.
The coyotes head was sent from
Forest te the Moscow university
for examination and a message
later stated that the brain of the
animal showed it to have beer
suffering from rabies.

fat hogs from prairie points
Tuesday morning, two cars going
from this point. The hogs ship
ped from this place were bought
for Mr.. Baer by Frank Simon

over 10000 pounds and brought
their owner the nice sum of
$3.50. Frank Hanley also sold
eight hogs that averaged 356
pounds in weight and brought
him in $272.85.
Mr.. Simon has so far purchas-

those Fred Moberg and Mr.. Bael

FAILS TO GET DIVORCE.
Fights II Years to Be Rid of Wife, But
Is Still Paying Alimony.

Butte.-After fighting in the courts
for II years to be rid of his wife and
evade paying her 800 month ali
mony, John Bordeaux, wealthy capital
list here, finds himself in the same po-
sition as when he began suit against
his wife Ella in 1899.
After the jury failed to agree Judge
Smith of Helena took the case under
advisement and abruptly dismissed it.
Both sides will appeal to the supreme
court.
Bordeaux was granted divorce in
the first trial, but the supreme court
reversed the judgment and remanded
the case for retrial.
After the case had come before 1t
half dozen times on various motions,
Bordeaux based his suit on alleged
infidelity, his charges causing sensa'
ton in Butte's society.
Pending disposition of the case Mrs
Bordeaux secured an order allowing
her 800 per month for support, which
she has been receiving all this time

BARN FLOOR
CALF PENS
Litter Carrier System.
50 Fl

In 1907 this old silo became unsatis'
factory and practically worn out. The
roof was raised, making it 80 feet
high, and an up-to-date stave silo IA
by 80 feet put inside the old one.
This leaves the new silo entirely pro-
tected from the weather.
Some five years ago it became de-
sirable to convert the sheep barn into
a COW stable when gambrel roof was
put on and the present arrangement
made with the exception of the ma
nure shed and litter car. Then fol-
lowed the building of the manure shed
and the putting in of the litter-car
equipment in the stable and shed as
we'll as out into the barnyard, and
here is the first noteworthy feature OF
the system. This track is supported,
not in the usual way, by planting
posts in the yard and using cross bars
from which the track is hung, but
by rods and wires fastened to the
barn, suspending and bracing it from
above. The ease with which the COW
stable can be cleaned and the manure
put direct in the spreader is here
shown. In bad weather the shed is
made use and the manure removed
from there when time permits.
Altogether it makes a very cheap
simple, and almost perfect system, as
all tho manure can be handled ans
placed just where desired With Mtni

SUICIDE, FEARED ARREST.
Name Of Wilson Cleared and HE Body
Found After Years Search.

Butte.-Remarkable is the story Of
a suicide that comes from Stamford,
in the southern part of Montana, solv-
ing the disappearance of Thomas Will
son, a respected citizen, who had been
missing since last July. His body has
been found, after untiring efforts by
his friends to locate him and apprise
him that he had been exonerated of
all blame in connection with the death
of Thomas Geer, who dropped dying
to the ground following light slap
given him by Wilson on his face.
Wilson, in passing Geer's place,
found him intoxicated and abusing his
children. He demonstrated with Geer
and the latter attacked him. When
Wilson, according to witnesses, struck
him with his open hand, Geer expired
1t his feet.
Wilson, fearing he would be prose-
cuted for murder, and that the facts
would never be known, fed and ap-
parently killed himself when he reach
ed a clump of brush in the hills.
An autopsy disclosed that Geer died
of a weak heart and acute alcoholism.

Fromberg cutoff of the Burlington

tract is let. This matter has been de-
layed for a few days pending the re-

off will form the connecting link be-
tween the Wyoming main line from
Denver and that of the Great North
ern. With the completion of the new
line, which will be ready for use be-
fore the end of the present year, that
portion of the Toluca-Cody line be-
tween Toluca and Scribner will be
torn up and all traffic to Central
Wyoming will be by way of Fromberg
from Montana. When this has been
accomplished all persons going to
Wyoming from any point in Montana,
or even from the extreme northern
part of Wyoming, will be compelled
to pass through Billings. A party OF

LIVE STOCK NOTES.

A damp filthy bed is alwaps q bad
policy.
. A compact fleece is protection to
the animal against cold or wet.
Alfalfa, clover or peas will help bal.
ance the ration for the hogs.
As rule wherever the land is good
there the wool Is equally SO.
A little tankage and oil meal make
excellent feed for the young pigs.
Wherever civilized man resides,
sheep thrive we'll If properly cared
for.
An uneven flock of good sheep 10
more valuable than an even flock OF
poor ones.
Protein feeds are of more impor.
lance than corn for the pigs while
they are young.
Be prepared to shed the colts and
horses that have gone to pasture IL
cold rains come.
Sheep will readily eat stuff that
horses or cattle win only consume on
pain of starvation.
Now that the stock has gone on
grass there is a lessening in the
chores. No one is objecting.
The idea of perfect comfort, dry
air and plenty of sunshine should be
incorporated in every hog house.
Stock lightly the pastures that
have been eaten out in former years.
1t is the only way to bring them
back.
It's shame to make any Of the
hogs eat their feed in the mud. A &C.
ment feeding floor will pay for itself
every season.
The value of ensilage can never b.
estimated by it's chemical analysis
One of it's chief values Is its ready
assimilation. 1t is succulent; it aids
in the digestion of other foods, and
| is economical.
One farmer who feeds his hogs the
skim milk warm from the separator
mixed with corn meal in the ratio OF
one to three, figures that he secures
what amounts to 40 per cent. hun
dred pounds for his skim milk.

The Valuable Match.

There was a loud splash, and mo-

lighting his pipe.
"Help, mani" cried the chap in the

board? I can't SWIM"
How often have you been DOWN."
asked the stevedore, shielding the
Pickering match from the wind.
