OVER GREER GRADE.


From our regular correspondent.
! The Greer grade leading to Five
Nile Greek seems to be getting more
than its share of accidents this fall.
F. A. Wanamaker lost a horse over
it few days ago. he vas coming
down with a load of grain and when
on the bluff just above the river he
met several empty wagons going up.
There was not room to pass and
Horace Green hitched onto the hind
end of Wanamaker's wagon to pull
him back few feet. Green's double
trees broke and Wanamaker looked
around to see what was the matter.
At that moment his leaders turned
around next the bluff, when he
thoughtlessly tried to turn them
hack. One became entangled in the
traces and fell as soon as it was un-
hitched. 1t made a lunge and fell
backwards and went rolling to the
road below.
The first of this week Morris Nat
toon's man got his brake caught on
the seat and couldn't make it work
When he saw what the trouble was
he jumped from the wagon and held
the upper line but couldn't turn the
horses. The hill below the grade
was not very steep at this place and
the team and wagon only turned over
twice. As far as We have learned
the damage done was a broken reach
and all Of the barley sacks burst.
T. B. Reed & Co. started on re-
moval sale last Saturday. intending
to cut down their stock here and
move the rest to their store at Pierce
City. But Albert Carlson of Carl
son & Lensegraph Of Potlatch bought
the entire stock. After invoicing
they viii have a few days sale and

Of years and believe the earliest

Throughout the past year there
has been a very healthy amount Of
building going on in and around
Nezperce. several crews Of carpen-
sers being kept constantly al work
But Il remained for the afser-harvest
season to see The real rush in this
line. Many applications for rental
property are made every week by
people coming in from the outside
world as well as ranchers Who are
attracted hilher by the superior ad-
vansaees offered their children in our
schools. The demand for homes
has 50 far surpassed the supply that
the inevitable has resulied-new
ones must be built.

The members Of the cast Of the
Z" Adventures of Jones" scored a
complete success last Friday even
ing at the Nezperce opera house.
The play was gotten up by the
members of Class No. s of the
Christian Sunday school for the pur-
pose of paying for the piano recent
ly bought for the church.
The participants in the cast de-
serve the more credit because of the
brief amount of time allowed for
practice. May Anderson, who played
the leading role, had to leave Satur-
day to take up his school work, and
thus they had only about two weeks
for learning their parts and rehears-
ing.
The Adventures of Jones" is a
clever comedy portraying the troub-
les incurred by a college professor,
hymn book and playing card
agent. and Richard Heatherly, a
youth, because they attended
a prize fight. They are pursued by
the police and in trying to escape
Jones, the hymn book agent. imper-
sonates the Bishop of Ballerat, who
shortly afterwards arrives. Interest
ing complications follow from all of
which Jones escapes by the use Of
his ready wit and glib tongue.
The cast of characters was as fol-
lows, each member deserving special
mention, which lack of space pre-
vents: Jones. May Anderson; Prof.
Goodly, H. G. Anderson;
Richard Heatherly, Harland Moser;
the Bishop of Ballerat. Jess Robert

more at i,is o'clock this morning
and at that time the entire structure
was in flames. This building adjoins
the main store structure and within
few minutes the FIRE had spread to
the store. The Pomery building
was soon ablaze and with the alb
sence Of pressure in the water mains,
the citizens were compelled to direct
their attention to other buildings to
prevent the entire town being wiped
out. Some little stock was secured
fsom the Pomerory and Dissmore
stores but the value Of the salvage Is
inconsiderable when compared with
the heavy loss sustained.
Both Mr.. Pomeroy and Mr.. Diss-
more have announced their intention
of rebuilding and pending the com
pletion Of the new structures will di-
vide space in the Odd Fellows hall,
where they will reopen for business
within a few days. The burned

'FLECTfoN OF CORN FOR SHOW
N PURPOSES.


Those who have had experience In
Vshibiting samples Of corn at the
various corn shows have learned
from experience the necessity OF
swing attention to the selection and
PREPARATION OF their samples for
show purposes Yet there are many
samples OF corn exhibited I'm South
Carolina each year which have had
almost no selection at all.
The first requisite In showing
corn is to have a large supply of
shucked corn to select from. for the
larger the pile the greater are the
chances of finding good ears. 1t Is
well TO pick at least two hundred
ears from the pile which the show
corn will finally be selected from.
Having made this choice. next de-

type Of ear I'm the two hundred.

must be Uniform In size. both in
length and circumference. FOR there
Is probably no one thing which at
tracts u corn judges attention more
quickly than a sample composed Of
ears of different sizes. All ears
In the sample should have grains
Of the same color. that Is you must
not have yellow grains occurring In
ears of white corn, and vice versa
Neither should there be both white
and red cobs In the same sample. They
should all be either white or red.
Tne ears should be Of a good size
and heavy In weight The butts and
tips should be well covered with
rows which are composed Of regu-
lar and uniform grains. 1t is al
ways preferable not to have an ex-
posed cob at the tip, IL the cob is
exposed do not cut 1t off, for a Judge
VIII detect 1t, and it gives him the
impression that the sample has been
tampered with. The space between
the rows Of grains should be mar
row and straight, preferably not
over one thirty-second Of an inch
wide. for wide rows Indicate that
the individual grains are rounded,
ana this Is an undesirable shape.
The grains themselves should be
wedge-shaped and OF good depth. AS
