SET IN HER WAY.

Sweet Mary Jane sat fourteen days, and
wouldn't deign to rise,
Although her folks tried every way to
make her realize
That IL was quite unladylike to sit all
dav ard night,
And never change. her attitude or rouse
her appetite.
They coaNed and leased and threatened
her, and still she would not stand.
And when they tried to raise her up shs
bit then on the hand:
They didn't want TO do her harm. or call
in the police,
And yet they sorrowed at the thought OF
Mary James decease
But Mary Jane knew what was best,
she wiser was than men,
She sat until she'd had her set, for Mary
was hen.

There is no denying the enterprise
of the persevering Dutchman. One
grower at least has sought to improve
his output by the aid of electricity
In the wineries can be seen live
wires, which run along the interior oil
the building. These do not come into
contact with either the vine or the
soil, but their presence is believed to
be beneficial Experiments were made
with two adjoining beds of spinach. In
the one case, where the electrical ef-
feet had been tried, the vegetable was
ready for marketing at the same time
that the other had barely commenced
to sprout from the ground. This latest
development in fruit and vegetable
culture is as yet in its infancy. What
will be the outcome of the ingenious
idea it is impossible to foretell.-Dun
dee Advertiser.

BY almost miracle, little nine year
old Ray Fields, son of C. A. Fields,
escaped with only minor injuries from
what might have been fatal accident,
last Friday evening. Two little boys,
Ray Fields and Tommy Brunker, came
running across the street in front of
DR.. w. H. Baugh's Drug store. Around
the corner came Nels Christensen and
another gentleman, driving in swift
trot. Ray Fields dropped one of his
frecrackers, and suddenly turned
back to pick it up, thus lodging right
in front of the team. There was no
time for Mr.. Christensen to turn aside.
The horses struck the boy and carried
him between them for several feet,
knocking him back and forth between
their hind and front feet. Finally, how
ever the boy rolled out from under the
horses, and lay dazed until picked up
by ]. H. 6oyenger. Mr. Boyenger
carried HIM into the drug store, where
he was examined by Dir. II. G. Baugh.
Luckily, no bones were broken. although
he was pretty badly bruised, and one
ankle was sprained. This is the third
time he has had this same ankle
sprained this spring. Mr. Fields was
notified and came hurriedly down to the
irug store and carried Ray home.

Predicted the Airship.

Horace Walpole is quoted by the
Westminster Gazette as having made
the following prophecy in 1884 after
Blanchards first ascent in hydrogen.
filed balloon: The seaports will be-
come deserted villages, and Salisbury
Plain. Newmarket Heath and the Sus-
sex Downs Will be utilized as dock
yards for aerial vessels. There will be
fights in the air with wind guns, and
there will be prodigious increase Of
land for tillage by the breakup of
the public roads as useless" This.
says the Gazette. was intended to be
facetious; yet if the noble earl had
seriously predicted 1875 years ago ex-
actly what has recently been achieved
in air fights he would have been
called mailman, rather than hui
morist.

A Vain Threat.

A group in the park attracted much
attention the other day. 1t consisted
OF a languid-looking woman read
ing a novel with a flaming cover,
nursemaid, who was evidently new
and green, and two troublesome little
children.
The youngsters fought, screamed,
and scratched, while the maid looked
on helplessly.
At last the novel reader closed
her book and said, impatiently:
"Hilda, if you can't keep them quiet.
send them here to me, and will sing
to them"
oh. it won't do any good, ma am"
was the weary reply. I've threatened
them with that twice already"

The Commercial club of Caldwell has
engaged Prof. Bernhard Boeggild, the
great Danish dairy expert who is now
working the towns of this country, to
deliver . free lecture at the great
dairy meeting it proposes to l.old in
Caldwell July 8.
Previous to 1880 the Danish peasants
made their own butter. In 1886 Boeg-
gid was asked by the Federation of
Agricultural Societies of Jutland to in
vestigate whether the peasants should
continue to churn their own butter, or
on sell their milk to central dairies
or themselves establish cooperative
creameries- AS a result of his investi-
cation Professor Boeggild published
his big work, cooperative Creamerie"
(Andelsmejerier,) which revolutionized
the whole dairy industry. He empha-
sized the Importance of cooperation,
as yielding the greatest advantages to
the smaller farmers. During all these
years he has been a careful and faith
full adviser of the Danish farmers
Today Denmark, which is about one
quarter the size of Idaho has 400
creameries. 1t ships one million
dollars worth of butter abroad every
week.
IN addition to Prof. Boeggild Idaho
will be represented at the meeting by
some of its ablest men. Director w.
L. Carlyle of the college of agriculture
at Moscow and P. H. Frandson of the
of dairying, Prof. H. T.
French and many leading dairymen
familiar with our local conditions of
and markets, will be
present and speak. The principal
meeting will be held in the afternoon
of July 9, though from all indications a /
meeting may be held also, and
it is probable that the large monufac-
Lurers of dairy machinery and dealers
in dairy supplies will also be repre-
sented,
The Secretary of the Caldwell Com
nercial club, Mr.. H. S. Kneedler has
all the details of the meeting in hand
and will answer any inquiry regarding
t.. The event has already outgrown
is original proportions and becomes
me of vast interest to all the state
and it has been found necessary to
employ extra clerical help in the Office
o carry forward the arrangements.

c. E. Palmer reports that on Sunday
at point about three miles east of the
Blue Lakes grade on the rim rock he
saw band of five deer There were
two bucks and three does in the band
and they were by no means timid.
Deer are occasionally seen down on
the tract in winter, but it is not be-
lieved that those whose summer range
is in the mountains remain here. 1t is
likely the band seen are escapes from
the park at DEVILS corral or some
other preserve in this part of the
state. Anyhow, Mr.. Palmer says it
was a pretty sight and it is hoped the
animals will not be molested. Jerome
