WANT NO CLERICAL CLOTHES
Oerellcts Refuse to Accept Parsons
Coats, Fearing the Taunts Of
Their Follows.

A bundle Of clothes from the mis-.
sion lay on the tailor's table.
What did you send these things
around to me for?" he asked. They
seem to be in pretty good condition"
They are In good enough condi-
ton" said the missionary, but they
VIII never be acceptable to the dere-
licts we expect TO distribute them
among until the ministerial cut is
modified. Every coa in the lot has
belonged to a preacher, and its style
betrays its ownership.
Most OF the men who apply at the
mission for hand-me-downs haven't
much pride left. but they balk at d
parsons coat. Unless actually driven
10 it. they will not wear one.
Clothes twice as badly worn but
or a business u are chosen instead.
Most ministers have hard work dispos-
Ing or their clerical clothes. Con
sclentious scruples against masquerad-
Ing In religious garb have nothing to
do with these men refusing the minis
ters' coats. They simply don't want
them because they dread the taunts
the coats are likely to provoke among
their fellows"

The Rabbits.

II. G.. Brown protects his trees by
merely rubbing fresh rabbit meat over
them. lie just kills a rabbit, cuts it up,
takes a chunk in his hands and iaDs it
up and down the trunk of the tree.
When one chunk is worn out by til : pro-
cess he takes another and when he has used
up a rabbit he kills another. This seems
like the simplest plan Of protecting trees
that we have heard OF, and seems TO
make the trees immune from the pests
for about two months for each applica-
tion, and it saves the expense OF sulphur
or other chemicals.
Vim. Silsbaugh has been hanging dead
rabbits on his barbed wire fence between
each two posts as an lawful example
to Mr.. Bunny, but this remedy seems
hardly sure enough to depend on.
One man tells us that he has seen the
rabbits climb over his 4-foot fence, time
and again.
We have been unable as yet to get one
OF those Injected rabbits from down IN
the canyon; they are so thoroughly
cleaned out, but VT have several men
on the lookout for them. We are very
anxious to get one OF these animals to
the University authorities, for it seems
to promise a means OF Kidding the tract
OF the pest.
When the disease first became epidemic
in the Canyon, it killed them off 50 rap
idly, that the stencil from the dead rab-
bits was a decided annoyance, but |
guess We will all be glad to endure the
stencil for a time ii it will rid us OF this
terrible pest.

1t has been suggested that We invite 4
discussion OF seed growing on the tract.
Tell us what you know about growing
and selling seeds.
Dean Carlyle had a good deal to say
the other day at the Gooding meeting
about the bright future for the seed in
dustry for Southern Idaho. He says he
has frequent inquiries for Idaho crown
seeds, which are gaining a decided rep
utation for their fertility.
This is especially true OF alfalfa, clover,
timothy and the various grains. Mr..
Carlyle says that there is a general feeling
among old farmers that seed runs OUT
and that it is well to frequently introduce
seeds from another locality, and there
will be a growing demand for our farm
seeds, and by taking pains in growing
clean seeds We can get considerably bet
ter than the usual market price.
We left some late onions, parsnips and
carrots in our garden last fall, and they
came up in fine shape this spring and
have produced good seed crops. We are
wondering if it is a good plan to raise
seed in this manner, by sowing the seed
late, as a second crop, n let it stay in
the ground all winter to mature seed the
following season. We have understood
that it is the practice in raising onion
seed to take two years for the crop, SOW
ing the seed in the spring, cultivate them
through the season, let them stay out all
winter, and the second season mature
the crop OF seed, but ii they can be sowed
late, after an early crop has been taken
from the ground, one need to count but
one year for the crop.
Tell us what you know about it.
