FRUIT RIOTS IN ORCHARDS.
Hundred Carloads Of Apples Await
Buyers Near Pennington.

Farmington-What to do with the
immense fruit crop is worrying orch
ard owners of this section. 1t is esti-
mated there are 100 carloads of excel
lent apples in the neighborhood of
Pennington, yet there seems to be no
demand. Only one buyer is here.
The early apples are being sold to the
cider mill at IS ton and ground into
cider and vinegar, because there is no
market for them. There are several
carloads of prunes within few miles
of Pennington, yet no one wants
them. They are being fed to hogs
and many owners of orchards which
have many early fall apples are feed
ing them rather than go to the ex-
pense of gathering them and hauling
them to town to be sold for cent a
pound.

HUNTING WITH THE FALCON
klrghiz, More Than Any Other Peo-

All wanderers are lovers of the
chase. but for sheer love of sport and
daring exploits the Kirghiz take the
palm. Central Asia is the home of
fanconry, which was not introduced
into Europe until the crusaders
brought back falcons with them from
their eastern wanderings. But i'm
agine the ambition of the men who
fly their birds at wolves and foxes
instead of at quails and partridges!
Not content with hunting game birds
with small falcons, the Kirghiz cap
ture and train the great golden
eagles. with which they hunt such
game as gazelles, foxes and even
wolves.
A we'll mounted Kirghiz falconer,
carrying on his wrist one of these
magnificent birds, Is fine sight. The
weight of the eagle is such that the
owner requires support for his
wrist. and the hunters are usually to
be seen with little wooden bracket
that supports the arm against the
hip. The eagles are hooded, as all
falcons are, but can be used only in
winter. when they are hungry and
keen. In summer they are fed on
marmots and live restful life. sit

A most vivacious and original ad-

was given by Mrs. Alice Hargrove
Barclay Wednesday afternoon. Mrs.
Barclay is most attractive speaker.
She made every auxiliary feel the i'm
portanoe of mission study class. She
brought in a bit of philosophy that
women must feel before they can act
they have to know before they can feel.
They will never know or feel until
they see or read. Mrs. Barclay told
how to organize mission study class.
Don't begin with books difficult to read,
at least, that seem dIfficult-until one
gets interested in the countries across
the seas. "The Days of June" is a
lovely little book (for fifty cents) that
will SOW the seed for Mission Study
Class and lead women, old and young,
to literature worth while. Mrs. Bar
clay went on until twilight fell, telling
her charmed audience of much that
was refreshing and convincing to the
heart and mind. Mrs. Barclay was the
charming guest of Mrs. Shelby Conrad.
