Arranging an Outing.

Major Fred Reed was in town yester
day and as hc is always studying something
Of interest to the settlers here, lac I'M
folded 10 us his latest dream OF pleas
IRE which contemplates AN excursion
from this tract to Fruitland, the great
orchard garden of Southern Idaho.
While none OF the details of this trip
have as yet isrn worked out, the plan il
To visit that section along in the summer
when the trees are loaded with fruit, and
thus demonstrate Ia the people on the
North Side tract the possibilities to be-
attained in fruit growing in this section.
The return trip could be made in one
day and the occasion would afford our
people very pleasant outing AT very
nominal cost. More will bee said about
it as fast As the details are worked ont.

SQUIRRELS Easily DESTROYED.

\ new method OF getting rid OF SPUR
rel pests without the use OF poison or
smoking appliances, and avoiding eN-
pense has aroused the interest OF the
farmers throughout the country. 1t has
been put To practical test with satlSiac-
tory results. over 1000 squirrels were
recently destroyed 10y this method on the
f.. Il. Maze ranch near Nsidro. great
many were likewise destroyed on the B..
T. Kirk ranch near SAN Jose, California.
Many other farmers have also employed
this new method with great success.
This method is very simple and might
have been in Use long ago, had the Idea
dawned upon some ingenious person.
The recipe Is us follows:
Take Il piece oi paper, amy kind, large
enough To stop up a squirrel hole, and
after ramming it into the hole rs far rs
possible, fill with dirt. Go over the en-
tire farm and ill each hole in this man
der. The squirrel being very tmic
animal. upon discovering the paper an'
the peculiar rattle it makes when he paw'
I. will he frightened To the eXtrcm,
depths OF its hole and will in most caste
die of fright. Ii ii survives the trs
fright and finds every hole blocked up
| il will soon seek the bottom OF the holt
and either sutiocate or become worrle'
10 death. by going over the entlre iarh
and stopping up every hole IN TINS man
ncr the farmer can rest assured That III
will he bothered with squirrels no more

planning a new campaign. and beg OF
her few days indulgence until
could go over matters. She had toio
me that she was to be at home that
evening, and 1t had been understood
between us that / was to be with her;
therefore, at eight o'clock | arose and
called for her number. The voice or
Janet answered me, telling me that
her mistress was not at home.
With an overwhelming presentment
of more misery to come, l vainly I'M
plored some information as to where
she had gone and at what hour she
was expected to return. The answer
that l received was click that told
me of the hanging up of the earpiece
and my further voicings brought only
the ringing silence of an unanswering
wire. l sank into my chair again.
In the midst of my stupor | heard
the ringing of the door bell and mo-
ascending the stairs. There was tap
at my door, and at my listless re-
spouse LeDuc quietly entered. I saw
him run his eyes quickly over me as
he tossed his hat upon the bed and
drew a chair close beside mine. He
said nothing, did not even smile as
was his habit, and in my misery l
did not offer him any greeting. For
perhaps a minute he sat without
speaking and then addressed me with
unwonted gravity: tom, / have the
proofs"
l started slightly and raised my
eyes to his. 1 fancied they were full
of regret, even sorrow, but his mouth
was firmly set My head was hot and
my throat dry, and I cleared the lat
ter before 1 spoke Then l asked
him hoarsely where they were.
He laid them on the table before
me- They consisted of a silver card
case, a bookmaker's ticket, bit Of
steel, a soiled piece Of paper and
small lump of some grayish substance.
Stupidity I stared at them.
