the largest wolves ever killed in
this section was shot by Tobe
Mitchell, hunter living at Hell

place, Sunday The wolf attack
ed Mitchell's dogs, and killed
two before Mitchell succeeded in
killing it. Farmers have been
losing much young stock from
wolves which have, in packs of
from six to ten wolves, been so
bold that an organized hunt to
exterminate them is now being

CAPlLLARlES IN SOIL
Commissioner Sloan Urges Prop-r
Cultivation

The recent heavy rains in many
sections of the state have pound
ed the ground. sI'he action Of the
sun will soon make it hard. 1t
is from this solid soil that the
moisture escapes through the
small hair-lille pipes called capil-
laries. The perpendicular pipes
are so small that they cannot be
seen with the naked eye. These
must be broken up or all the

Narrow Escape

Some one fired a rife at the

the train entered Ozan Saturday
evening. The ball passed through

Mr.. Russell looked through the
door after the shot was fired and
saw two boys standing near the
right of way, one of them holding
a gun in his hand. Mr. Russell
is a stranger in this country and
did not know either of the boys,

CANTELOUPE CROP
HEAVY At BLEVINS
DAILY SHIPMENT FROM
4 TO CARS
NETTING HANDSOME PROFITS
About Forty Cars Shipped
Since Opening Of the
Season

The canteloupe crop in the
vicinity of Blevins is turning out
even better than was expected
by the growers, both as to yield
and price, all who are interested
in the business having reaped
handsome profits.
There is about 500 acres plant
ed in that vicinity and the DOOR
est acre will yield a profit al
least S100, from that up to $500
where all the conditions have
been favorable. There have been
about 40 car loads shipped from
this point since the season open
ed, the shipment running from
four to oight cars per day.
Those who have engaged in the
business and given it the proper
attention have made money and
are in it to stay. The lands in
the vicinity of Blevins are spec
tally adapted to this crop, the
vine grows well and produces a
fruit that can not be beat in any
country. 1t would be well for
around Washington to investi-
gate, and the best time to do that
is now while the the season is on
and shipments are being made.
They could learn how the crop is
handled; where the shipments
are made; what is necessary TO
produce the best fruit and also
what takes it to make good
marketable canteloupe.
Those who are in a position to
know, say that the lands around
Washington will produce the
very best cantelouges, it only re-
mains for some Of our farmers
in the sandy lands to try the ex-
pertinent with sufficient acreage
to justify buyers in coming here.
The crop from this vicinity goes
into the market after the crop
from the south has been disposed
of and before the crop from the
north comes in, hence always
C )mmands a good price and there
is no danger of overproduction.
