Bond Election Called.

The trustees of the local school
district have called a special elec-
tion for Tuesday, August 1st,
at which time the question of
voting a bond of $4,000 on the
district for the purpose of erect
ing and equipping a new school
house will be up for considera-
ton by the residents of the dis
trict. If the bond carries it will
be redeemable on July 1st, 1881,
and will bear interest at the rate
of 5 per cent per annum. The
polls will be open at the school
house between the hours of and
5 p. m. on the date above men,
toned.
1t is to be hoped that a large
majority of our people will look
upon the question favorably as a
good public school house is cer-
tainly needed here. The yearly
interest will be so light as to be
almost unnoticed, while the ben
efts derived will be material.

A Pretty Hot Sunday.

The eastern heat wave seemed
to flop over onto this side of the
Rockies late last week and on
Sunday some pretty warm wealth
er was registered at many points
in the northwest. At Seattle the
thermometer registered 80 de-
grees; at Spokane, SO degrees;
at Portland, 81 degrees; at Walla
Walla, 108 degrees and at Lewis
ton, 106 degrees. At this place
it registered "a degrees, which
is the hottest it has been so far
this year and which mark is sell
dom reached at this place. While
the weather has been pretty
warm for the past couple of
weeks Sunday was by far the
hottest day we have had and the
record of that day may not be
reached again this summer. So
far the heat has done no damage
to crops but is only bringing the
grain along to the harvest stage
in the best of condition.

Rice Arrested AT Lewiston.

J. B. Rice, formerly engaged
in business at Westlake
for many years, was arrested
last week at Lewiston for selling
alcohol without properly filling
out the application blank and on
Saturday was held to the district
court. 1t is understood that the
case was instituted to secure an
Interpretation of the local option
law in respect to the sale of
alcohol.
Rice, it seems, had been in the
habit of having the persons who
secured alcohol sign an applica-
ton blank after stating what use
they intended to put the stuff to
and failed himself to later fill out
the blanks.

The Summer Fallow Habit.

Summer following is justified
in some localities where the
moisture of two seasons is re-
quired for one crop. But in the
wheat belt of the Northwest it is
a grand waste of time, money
and opportunity aside from the
useless waste of the soils store
of humus. Its loss of time and
money is apparent; and of oppor-
tunity, because there are highly
renumerative crops which are
we'll suited to fiji the gap. But
the objectionable sin of summer
following is the utter waste of
humus. Cultivation produces
nitrifcation by stimulating bac-
terial action and in the presence
of moisture and oxygen these
bacteria fairly burn the humus
of the soil. The result is that
more nitrates are liberated than
are required for the succeeding
crop. Leaching is, therefore,
encouraged and an excess OF
straw produced which the farm
er usually burns.
In England two plats of ground,
one alternated with wheat and
fallow, one with wheat contlnu-
ously produced as an average at at
the end of forUy-seven years 80
bushels for the fallowed plat as
against 124 bushels for the con-
tinuous plat. Moral: Don't burn
YOUR humus. That is your birth
right. Ask your station TOR a
suitable fallow crop.

Crops Are Ripening Rapidly.

Farmers out on the prairie are
rapidly getting their cutting ma
chinery into shape and will be
into the field next week in many
places binding the crops of WIN
ter barley which have ripened
rapidly from the warm weather
of the past couple of weeks.
Many will scarcely have time to
get their hay crop harvested be-
fore it will be necessary to COM
mence cutting ripe grain and
from now on the crops will ripen
so fast that everyone will be kept
on the jump to take care of them.
Heading will probably commence
early next month and will be
closely followed by threshing.
AS there are number of new
threshing outfits on the prairie
since last year the grain will be
ground out at a rapid rate pro-
viding men enough can be secur-
ed to keep all of the headers and
threshers running with ul |
crews.

Much New Threshing Machinery.

All kinds of new threshing ma
chinery has been received here
this week for use in this section
during the coming harvest and,
while the crop is a monster one,
the increased number of thresh-

cared for about as rapidly as in
former seasons.
Among the new outfits receiv-
ed was a 32x56-inch Advance
separator and 22-horse power
Advance engine sold by the
Hoene Hardware to the Seubert-
Jenny company, a 22-horse power
Advance engine sold to Henry
Bosse, of Keuterville, and a 26-

week from the Palouse country.
Two Case separators were also
received Wednesday by the Cot

Nezperce Scooped Reubens.

Notwithstanding the score was
II to 3 in favor Of Nezperce in
the baseball game Sunday after
noon with Reubens, the game
was very interesting. Reubens
made all of her runs in the sew

tered hers. Each side used two
pitchers, Jervis and Stellmon for
Nezperce with Mulholland catch
sr, and Henry and White for
Reubens, with Cleveland catcher.
The batting of Stellmon, of
Nezperce, was the feature of the
game, he making a home run,
