Horse Barn Burned on Fair Ground

A fire, which destroyed the seventy foot
horse shed on the Lamolle Valley fair
ground, was discovered this morning at
about 1870 o'clock The fire alarm was
sounded and the fire company responded
promptly, but by the time they reached
the scene the building was all in flames,
the bedding, hay and straw burning rap
idly. Lady Chime, bay PAGER, owned
by Harry Alderman of South Vernon,
was badly burned and is now at the
Utton stable being cared for by Dr. F.
Henry, Nearly everything else was
saved.
The exact origin of the fire is unknown
but it is probable that match in the
hands of some careless person started the
blaze. The man in charge of the stall in
the center Of the shed, where the fire
lroke out, was awakened by the smell Of
smoke and finding that he could not
check the flames. turned his horse loose
and gave the alarm.
The building was not insured.

Reasons For a Sito.

The Colorado Agricultural college
gives the following reasons why the
dairyman should have a silo:
First.-By means of the silo more Of
the food value of forage can be saved
than by any other method of prepare
ton.
Second.-The silo gives the means Of
keeping in small compass large
quantity Of forage safe from the
weather and Ia convenient form to
feed.
Third.-Forage placed in the silo
keeps at a uniform quality, whereas
field cured forage constantly deterio-
rates.
Fourth.-Considering the food value
saved. the silo affords the cheapest
means for forage preservation.
Fifth.-Because Of the pahtability
and succulence the sflage possesses
higher feeding value than the same
forage dry cured. Conservative feed
ers estimate that the silo doubles the
value of the forage crop.
Sixth.-Silage can be used in sum-
mer and fall to supplement pasture.
Seventh.-It is proved that the silo
effects a considerable saving in the
cost of producing beef. mutton and
milk.
Eighth.-The silo enables the farmer
to keep more live stock, which pro-
notes the rotation Of crops and the
preservation Of soil fertility. .ug

DuCks ana geese May BE Shot From
Sept. to Jan. l.
The open season on most game begins
during the month of September and the
prospects are said to favor a good
season this year, though the drouth has
destroyed many partridges in some Sec
tions of the State.
The first season TO open is that for
wild ducks and wild geese, which is from
September to January / The limit of
a bag in one day is 20 birds.
September 10 the season opens on Eng.

limited to five birds in one day. Not
more than five ruffled grouse or par
trldges may be shot in one day, or more
than % birds in the season, which ends

between September 10 and December 1.
All hunters must have a license and
those who secured them last year should

had an exceptionally fine exhibit of Aver

fee it to say that the exhibit in this line
is fully equal to that Of former years.
THE BASE BALL GAME
The most interesting feature Of the first
day was the base ball game between
Morrsville and Hyde Park, This affair
no doubt drew many who would not
otherwise have attended the Fair the
first day.
The game was started at about four
O'Clock and it was well after SIX before
the nine innings were ended. Morrsville
had for it's pitcher man from Hardwick
4, t., TaGfar-
sonville. HYDE Park went to the bat and
it was not long before they were retired.
The same was true of Morrisyille when
they took their inning. In the second
inning Hyde Park made two scores and
Morrisville nothing. This caused great
enthusiasm among the Hyde Park root
ers. The third inning resulted in cipher
for Hyde Park, while Morrisvlle ran up
four scores. Then the tables were turned
and the Morrisville rooters loosened up
Innings 4, 5 and 6 were ciphers for
both sides. A this time a decision by
Umpire Kier, in which he called a Hyde |
Park runner out on third drew a loud |
protest from that side and for awhile the |
game was hung up. Better Judgement, |
however, prevailed and the game was re-
sumed. 1t is only fair to say that MANY |
on both sides thought the umpire was in
error.
In the 18th inning Hyde Park scored one !
run, causing CONSERVATION in the Norris |
vile ranks and res toring JOY to the Hyde |
Parkers. Three runs in the Sth and one
IN the 9th gave Hyde Park total OF 7 |
to Morrisville's 4, the latter making no
scores in the last three innings. |
The pitchers on both sides were good I
and some fine playing was done on both
sides. 1t was altogether a "snappy' +
such as lovers of the game
ike to see. Barring the one decision
lbove, Umpire Kier vegeneral satisfac

North Portland, Ore, June 3.-Re-
ceipts for the week have been; cattle
2026, calves 10, hogs 1850, sheep
7785, horses and mules 166.
In face of the light receipts the
cattle market continued its downward
trend and was 75c difference in prices
as compared with two weeks ago.
Killers bought extensively in Colo
RADIO and Nebraska and were slow in
taking hold of the offerings here.
With the coming of spring and the
use of vegetables for food, the de-
mand for beef had fallen off and the
high prices which have existed for
the past six months could not be
maintained. The lower prices have
accelerated trading in stock cattle and
feeders and purchases for feed lot
purposes are being freely made
The hog market was lightly sup
piled and there was general
strengthening of prices. Hogs weigh
ing around 200 lbs sold at 6.S5 and
the demand was very active.
There was short run of sheep but
not many that could be considered
as first-class. Lambs sold at $50
and fair lot of wethers that aver
aged SO lbs. sold at 4. rs. One lot
of thin wethers sold at 3.35 and 1243
stockers sold at $50.
The horse market showed more

INSPECTOR WHO INSPECTS

sanitary inspector.
Idaho seems to be blessed with an
inspector who really inspects.
"The inspector of food and sanitary
conditions went through Occur d.
Alene the other day and swept the
hotels with the stiffest of metaphori-
cal brooms.
1t was like the visit of destroying
angel except that this messenger of
the state removed danger to health,
and recalls the story that certain
ancient city should not be destroyed
If it contained ten righteous men,
for only one of ten hotels escaped
condemnation for dangerous or dis
ease-breeding conditions.
"The Idaho city is to be congratu-
lated on the sweeping thoroughness
with which its hotels have been in
spected. The experience is mortify-
ing, but the reforms ordered are
boon to health and will save much
money to the public.
1t is good to know that the reser-
voir for city water is pronounced
"the cleanest and best reservoir the
inspector has visited" The city on
the lake ought to have the best water
in Idaho"
