Clean Up Day.

Wednesday, May 10th, has
been designated by the village
council as a cleanup" day and
it is hoped that on this date every
citizen and property owner will
take special pains to clean up all
residences and business lots in
the village and have the refuse
that has accumulated during the
past year hauled to the dump
grounds. Rid up all of the va
cant lots and back alleys and pile
the rubbish up in convenient
places and get some person to
haul it away. Tin cans and ref
use scattered all over town does
not speak we'll for the enterprise
or cleanliness of our citizens so
let US all join in ridding up our
premises and so beautifying the
town. Every citizen should have
enough pride to keep things clean
about his premises, so let all join
in and make the cleanup day a
success.

CLOUDBURST
STOPS TRAFFIC
Covers Track With Gravel to
Depth of Ten Feet Below
Culdesac.

A small cloudbWst in the coun-
try below Culdesac on Tuesday
afternoon caused a large amount
of rock and gravel to slide down
onto the railroad track, covering
it to a considerable depth for sew
eral hundred feet. The freight
train was held at Culdesac and
several carloads of hogs were
unloaded there until the track
could be cleared. Owing to the
difficulty in removing the slide a
temporary track was laid around
it and the passenger train was
enabled to make the run from
Lewiston to Grangeville on We'd
nesday morning. 1t went down
and back again that afternoon
and made the trip on schedule
time again yesterday. T h c
freight also came up yesterday
as usual but the track where the
slide occurred is not clear yet al
this writing.

Natures Freaks at Nampa.

A freak ounce tree and a
freak egg are two items of inter-
est at Nampa, the latter having
been obtained by J. w. Champion
from one of his ducks and the
former is one of the many good
fruit trees on the residence prop
erty of Mike Harmon on the
north side.
The duck egg, is in fact, two
eggs. 1t consists of a full de-
veloped egg with perfect shell
within another egg. The outer
egg contained a developed yolk
and the shell was perfect. 1t
was exceptionally large. but
otherwise there would have been
no reason to suspect that a small
er egg with a shell was within.
The discovery was made by the
larger egg being broken while
attempting to see it.
Mr.. Harmon's ounce tree is
one that blooms in series of bios
SONS. The first came before
frost this year and as a result
many of the blooms were killed.
Enough remain for a fair sprink-
ling of fruit. After few weeks
a second series of blossoms will
come, the tree repeating it's
former activities. During the
past two seasons it bore two dis
tinct courses of fruit, the first
being as large as eggs when the
second blossoms came.
Mr.. Harmon says he expects
to see the same system of bios
soming and fruiting this year
and is asking friends to watch
the tree in its freak performance.
