SHEEP LOOKING FINE.

Fen Batty returned this week
from a trip to his sheep ranch
ON the Salmon river across from
the mouth of Rocky canyon. His
band of sheep which he recently
purchased are looking fine at this
time having come through the
winter so far in excellent shape
under the supervision of Ben
Cooper, than whom, it is gener-
ally admitted, there is no better
sheepman the whole length of
the Salmon river. While some
sheep owners are depending en-
tirely upon south hillside grazing
to carry their bands through, Mr..
Batty is feeding and has been for
number of weeks, and should
winter linger too long in the lap
of spring and the feed supply run
short, the hillside grass is still
there to fall back upon, and the
sheep will go onto the range
strong and in good shape to rus
tie for the brief period that will
be necessary before the tender
spring grass shoots into sight.
This transition period will not
be long delayed now in the semi
tropical Salmon river cline, as
the buttercups have already put
in their appearance, and soon the
hillsides will be clothed in the
full garb of spring verdure, or
namented and bespangled with
the world of posies, in variety
and beauty of which this country
stands unexcelled if equalled any
where on earth.

Arrangements are completed for
a big time at the local farmers
union meeting in Grangeville on
next Saturday. An excellent pro
gram of musical and literary
numbers with prominent speakers
from the outside, will be carried
out. The ladies will serve a
sumptuous dinner at the proper
hour, and everything promises a
splendid days entertainment.
The meeting is not for the unions
of the entire county, but will be
confined to the local members
and such friends as may be for
tunate enough to receive invita-
tons.

CRACKING SCHOOL TEAM.

The high school boys announce
the fact that they will line up
this season with the best base ball
aggregation that has ever been
turned out from this educational
institution. Already the lineup
is being made and plans formed
for the purchase of new suits and
other paraphernalia with which
to begin the season. There is talk
of putting on a local talent play
soon, with which to help flush
the treasury.

GRANGEvILLE o, voLLMER q.

There was a large crowd out
at the Armory last Thursday
night to witness the last basket
ball game of the season, and not
withstanding that the hands of
the clock pointed to within a few
minutes of ten the crowd continu-
ed to augment instead of dispense
up to the time the game was call
ed. The delay was due to the
fact that the Camas Prairie line
was still blockaded between here
and Fem, and the Grangeville
youngsters had to drive nine
miles and back with four-horse
team and sleigh to get the Voll-
mer high school girls in line to
compete with the local misses,
and the train was also thirty or
forty minutes late.
The Grangeville Military band
held itself III readiness, as per
promise. and as the high school
yell burst forth at the top of the
grade on west Main street, the
boys tore loose with rollicking
piece that made the young visit
ors feel of considerable import
ance, and like they were really
honored guests of the occasion.
The band also played at the Arm
DRY for the game, and it is prop
er to remark right here that this
musical organization has been do
ing the decidedly genteel thing
by the high school bunch during
the latter part of their series of
games, and the effect of their
work in drawing a crowd has been
very apparent.
The game was followed with
deep interest, Notwithstanding
that the locals were decidedly too
much for the visitors, terminal
ing the game by score of 8 to
2. An accident occurred toward
the close of the game, when one
of the visiting team sustained a
severe injury to one of her fin
gers in trying to block Irene Par
sons from scoring, and had to
call DIR. Campbell, who was
among the spectators, to her re-
lief. She was taken to the doc
tors office and the injured mem
Der given the needed attention,
and was afterwards able to par
ticipate in latef festivities of
the evening.
After the game closed the WIS.,
itors, together with the local team
and a number of the other men,
bers of the high school, were in
vited to the hospitable home of
Mrs. A. F. Parker, where under

sEAY HOME DESTROYED.

On Thursday afternoon of last
week the residence of John Seay
was destroyed by fire on the
home place three miles east of Mt
Idaho. Mr.. Seay was absent from
home at the time of the fire, and
Mrs. Seay with her small child
was able to save only few
keepsakes and small personal
effects. The loss is estimated be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, with
little if any insurance.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN A HOT
BLAZE.

On Wednesday afternoon a
strong smell of smoke and burn
ing pine pervaded the living
room at Kid Smith s place on
Main street, and a hurried inves-
tigation by the occupants, dis
closed the startling fact that the
pine board ceiling through which
the stove pipe passes in the back
room was all on fire. The boys
all begun hustling for "extin-
guishers, and quiet alarm was
sent in where it did the most
good, and Fred Meader and John
McEvers were soon prancing up
the street with the chemical en-
CINE ready to PUNK the bullseye
at forty yards. But their expert
testimony was not called into
use, the bunch at the seat of war
having secured relief by means
of the "bucket brigade" and
soon peace and quietude reigned
where but a few brief moments
before "riot and bloodshed" had
almost prevailed. But while from
present conditions our town car
laugh it off and joke about the
incident, it really is a serious
matter; for five minutes time
meant simply the difference of
that whole north side block stand
ing intact as it does, with bust
ness going right along and the
property of the occupants secur-
ed to them, and a vast heap of
blackened, smouldering ruins,
and twenty or more of our citi-
zens financially ruined or serious,
ly crippled and thrown out of
business. But, in the language
of the immortal Frank Roberts,
or some other sage-philosopher,
Life is just one-thing after
another" anyway.

today for the first time since
his return from his trip to Ger

last of the tourists to land on
home soil and we have it on good
authority he did not return alone
even then, having brought brid
with him from his native coun-
try. He is looking much improv
ed from the trip, and attributes
the fact to the good treatment
received at the hands of the old
country friends, but at the same
time intimates that he is not by
any means disposed to part COM
pany with Camas prairie condit-
ions and friends until the final
parting comes. The Globe is glad
