Damage was Slight

Time has elapsed since the
frost of April and the early part
Or May to estimate the amount
of damage that was done to fruit
in this section. Reports from
the district surrounding the city
are to the effect that there was
practically no damage done to
speak of, about the only thing
that was affected being the early
variety of cherries, and these
only slight. This is due to uhe
trees not being far enough ad-
vanced at the time of the frost to
suffer damage, and this is true
in this section every year. The
trees are now in full bloom and
the crop will be just as heavy as
if there had been no frost. The
fact that trees in this section
are much later than the states
farther south is one of the great
advantages that we possess over
other localities, and the growing
seasons here are just as long.
Fruit men are beginning to
realize this fact and many of
them are going into the fruit
business on a large scale.

Captured the Family

During the past week L. d.
Goodnough and Paul Loveland
captdred an entire Fox family
consisting of the mother and
four little ones. Mr.. Goodnough
had been missing goats from his
herd occasionally and Sunday he
and Paul Loveland thought that
they would try and round up the
beast that was invading their
premises. They expected to
find that it was a wolf that was
doing all the damage. They
started off Sunday morning 60
ing down into the ravlne west of
the house. Here they stopped
for a moment when they heard
a noise resembling the blatting
of sheep. They followed in the
direction and soon came upon a
large red fox. Each took a shot
at the animal out failed to drop
their game. They again waited
and again came the same noise.
This time they followed very
cautiously and came upon the
fox just as she was entering her
den. They proceeded to build a
fire and smoke out the fox and
the result was very successful.
They managed to kill the mother
which measured fully four feet
from head to tail and also
smothered the four little ones
measuring over three feet.

Commercial Club Starts the
Ball Rolling.
Steps Taken to Secure a Very
Desirable Piece of
Ground.

The important question of
securing a site for public park
was presented to the Com mer-
cial Club at it's meeting which
was held last Friday evening.
The question was thoroughly
discussed, and there was unani-
nous sentiment in favor of it. i.
The proposition was put before
the club by President VIM. Olson,
and the plan if it can be carried
out successfully, will be for the
city to buy from D. M. Maxcy a
tract of land above the pumping
station along the bay shore. Mr..
Maxcy has agreed to sell the
tract, which contains abort 40
acres to the city for 100000.
giving the city term of eight
years to pay for it. The site is
ideal, and the plan an easy Ole
for the city. Ifpossible a special
election will be called to vote on
the proposition, and many mem
bers of the COM mmercial club have
volunteered to act as election
clerks and inspectors free of
charge, in order to save the city
the expense of conducting the
election. We are certain that
the citizens of the city will look
with favor on the park PROPOSE
tion and that before many months
we can bost of as fine q pu bile
park as any city in the state.
Another matter which was un-
del discussion at the club meet.
ing was that of securing boat
to make regular trips between
this city along the south shore
and to Duluth and Superior.
Secretary Hull of the Publicity
committee has this matter in
charge and it is hoped that salts
factory arrangements can be
made.

INDIANS TO HAVE IRRIGATION
EXHIBIT AT PUEBLO
Especial to Silver State.)

PUEBLO. Colo, July 19.-There i
more than a chance that the govern

accept the proposal of the board of con
troll Of the Eighteenth National Irriga
ton congress, Pueblo, September $3.50
and the director of exhibits of the Ma
tional Irrigation exposition, Septem
Der 10 to October /, to have a compre

ton, and has referred it down TO the
superintendent of various schools and
reservations in New Meicxo, Arizona
and Colorado. All Of these are re-
spending, both to the Indian Office and
to the congress and exposition officers
at Pueblo, wanting details Of the pro-
posed exhibit, and asking for further
information.
The government has a fund that it
uses for such exhibition and generally
takes part in all national and interna-
tlonal expositions, and it is the utili-
eaton OF this that the congress and ex-
position are figuring on.
The superintendent of one of the

ducts l fear will be a little late for
your congress, but possibly a display
might be made.
