THE HEDGEHOG BOUNTY
Nearly Three Thousand Dollars In
Five Months.

Montpelier. July 25.-In the five
,nths since the Legislature fixed
bounty on hedgehOgs IS towns have
applied for the money allowed under
law and $2.93960 has been paid out
in 80 cent bOunties. Bolton is the
banner town thus far with claims OF
S5667O, Waterbury second at S4S2.70
and Groton third, 1891 80. These
towns have been leaders before. One
man in Waterbury brought in 800
hedgehogs in a week
From the present rate at which the
claims are presented TO the State II
is expected the total for the year will
be between $4,000 and $4,000. In
1904, the last full year in which the
State paid a bounty on hedgehogs,
the years total was $6,S61.20, consid
erably less than the estimate for this
year.
The law provides that any person
killing a porcupine commonly known
as hedgehog may within ten days
present the head of the same to the
town clerk of the same town and ii
satisfied that the animal was killed
in said town he gives such person a
certificate. The head is marked by
cutting off both ears in the presence
OF the clerk and the person killing
the hedgehog lays the town clerk
five cents for every head presented.
The treasurer of the town on presen-
tation of the certificate shall pay
thirty cents.

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER

Washington as we'll as Oregon is
aroused by the proposition to have
Uncle Sam mine, transport and sell
the Alaska coal, and California an
doubtedly will soon join the move
ment, since the latter Is progressive
and has some true blue progressiSes
in congress. And you can bet your
life that big business interests are
aroused, too. The Harriman-Stoiie-
Webster interests that have so tong
had the consumers of washington
coal by the neck are getting right
busy and you'll soon hear OF some
chambers of commerce announcing
that the enterprise is socaaHstie,
paternalistic and anarchistic, and ne
miss our guess il one Of their early
yells Is not to the effect that Uncle
Sam cannot mine and deliver coal as
cheaply as the private trusts do.

RAIN REEVES

ranch men and holders of land
west OF the Missouri river in the city
the first of the week told of the splen-
did rains which have extended be-
yond the west line of the state. While
the season has been more or less dry
during the crop season, the moisture
is coming in sufficient quantities as
to relieve the distress in the absence
of rain. Beginning the middle of last
week a heavy rain covered that sec
ton, and Saturday and Sunday there
were two heavy downpours. The
great dams or reservoirs which were
constructed in that section several
years ago are now filled with water,
which has not been the case for a
year. The dams are large and hold
an immense quantity of water, the
settlers using this means to conserve
the water and use it when needed.
The rains in that section in the week
has put al entirely different phase CT
the situation in that country, and the
settlers are not talking about leaving
the country SO much as they did.

IDEAL FOR WINTER WHEAT

Sioux Falls Argus Leader: There
was never time in she history of the
state when August offered such ideal
conditions forsplanting a winter wheat
crop as is offered at the9present time.
Nearly five inches of rain fell during
July, and already August has added 3
inches to the July total. This means
that the soil is soaked and that the win
ter wheat planted late in August would
get firm root and great start before
cold weather. In addition there is every
promise of wet fall, with strong pro-
liabilities of heavy SHOWS during the
winter months -ideal conditions for a
winter wheat crop. The threshing re-
turns now being reported make fine
showing for winter wheat. The crop
usually gets well out of the way before
| the extreme hot weather comes, and
hence there is gain both in yield and
in quality. The indications are that the
acreage of winter wheat this fall will
| far surpass that of last year, and this
we believe to be most promising out
| look.
