DEN OF RATTLERS.
Aberdeen Times.


Chris Seitz, dry farmer living
about 16 miles northwest of Aber-
deem ran upon den Of rattlesnakes
upon his own farm one day last week
and before he had finished succeeded
in killing eighteen, ranging from 81
inches to nearly four feet in length
The den was found in a pile of loose
rocks. After the slaughter Mr.. Seitz
nailed the snakes to cross bar
about breast high and has his picture
taken standing behind the bunch Of
serpents. Mr.. Seitz, place is several
miles away from the lava rock de-
sert, where rattlers are said to be
numerous but these are the first that

many dry-tarmers living west of 40
erteen have been residents CT the
country several years and have never
seen a snake. Mr.. Seitz is of the OPP
inion that he has cleaned out the
den and that he will see no more.

FERNS IN THE LAVAS.

One OF the wonders of mountain
climates is the variation of climate
in the distance spanning valley and
the adjacent mountain range, but a
party of Blackfooters who went to
the lava beds recently to get ferns
70 nd still different climatic con-
dition.
Ferns grow best in the crevices of
the lava about fifteen to twenty five
feet below the surface where the dust
blowing into the crevices and in time
forms few inches of fine soil in the
bottom, and the rain and snow keep
It moist enough for plant life. The
rock walls furnish the protection re-
quired by ferns, and at some time of
the day the sun is in position to
give them a sun bath. During the
winter time the snow drifts into the
crevices in varying quantities ac-
cording to their position with regard
to prevailing winds and the form of
the surface for aiding the wind to
carry it into the crevice at a given
point. It may pile up until it fills a
crevice at a certain place, and fifty
feet away there may be but little in
the same crevice on account of its
being at a different angle.
When spring comes in the ferns in
the one place lie buried under snow
and ice until the weather is quite
warm, and they start to grow late.
At the other place they develop
early. The party mentioned found
such a place and we're able to take
their choice of ferns just starting tc
unfold or those that stood two feet
high. Some spread out like palms
and others stood up like slender
vases. The fronds are so very deli
cate that the slightest bruise kills
them, and they have to be moved
with the greatest care. A good way
is for one person to go down in thu
crevice and lift the fern CAREFUL!
with a short handled shovel, taking
up as much earth with the roots al
can be handled, set it in a small bias
ket or short sack and let the on,
at the top draw it up with rope
Wrap 1t Immediately with paper
being careful not to bend or 5ruis,
the leaves, and set it out again tr
same day in rich soil where tn
sun does not shine on it more thai
a few hours day. 1t is moved w'tl
long leaves or fronds on. keep rh
sun off for a day or two, and be sur
to keep it sprayed and we'll noisten
ed. Ferns grow better If they ar
sprayed, and the water must b
clean so the pores in the leaves will
not be closed with particles of mu
or dust. Ferns from the lava bed
will flourish for years if properl
fortified, and mulched IN the fall
They must be in half-shaded plac
and should not be flooded. Peopl
who have been studying the fer
question here find that the 10th o
May is about the best time to ge
them, but by following the foregoing
directions they may be moved mucl
later.
Ferns have no particular marke
value here, but green house peopl
who cultivate them elsewhere woul'
fix a price of about 81 or $3.50 a
piece for the lava fern that has
fine form and stands a couple of fee
high At that rate certain cracks i
the lava beds would yield more pre-
fits than some of the adjacent farm
if people in general sholld come t
appreciate ferns and go to using
few in the settings of their houses.

CHOICE
BY HOLLAND

MANUFACTURERS are Of
III two kinds-the honest
and dishonest. The one
makes the best goods, the
other makes the worst. Each
has his own particular
scheme of life.
The honest manufacturer
aims to make the best goods
he can and to advertise them
so that all the world will
know Of their merits. He
courts investigation. He
wants customers to hold him
to rigid accountability.
The dishonest manufactur-
er hopes to profit by decep-
ton. He produces an article
that will be offered as "just
as good" though he knows 1t
is inferior. He seeks to make
a larger profit than the hon.
est manufacturer, and this
larger profit IL necessary be-
cause he has to find new Gus
toners day after day.

FIGHTS TO Save
HIS father
AsssiIant, Ciubbed by Ecclesiastic's
Son, Escapes in Buggy; Wound
May Prove Fatal

Brigham City, Jan. 22.-Bishop j.
M. Morris was shot and perhaps
mortaily wounded in the prestnce OF
his son. William Morris at Rosette
tate yesterday afternoon by William
Cobic, a mail carrier of that place,
Sho carries mail to and from Kel-
ton. The trouble is ascribed to the
neglect of Cobe to properly care for
animals placed in his charge by
ranchers.
Cobie had leased a farm OF Morris
and was pasturing numerous horses
and cattle on the farm. Some OF the
animals belonged to Morris.
Il is asserted that Cobie did not
nroperly care for the animals and
that his attention had been called to
the matter on various occasions. Nor
ris made final appeal to Cobie to
take better care of the animals in
trusted to him, but getting no results
he said to Cobie that he would re-
port him to the state humane society.
This conversation Is said to have Ia
ken place yesterday morning Just be-
fore Cobie departed for Kelton with
the mail. Cobie, turning to Morris,
said, II will take care of you when
l return
The remark did not worry Morris
and he thought little of it, but Cobie
made his word good.
Makes Threat Good
Cobie returned to Rosette late In
the afte noon and about the first per-
son he met was Morris in company
with his son. He drew up to Morris
and said: Il am prepared for YOU
whereupon he drew from his pocket
a revolver and opened fire. Morris
dropped down behind the buggy
wheel for moment, but as he arose
again Cobie fired another shot which
entered Morris's chest just below the
collar bone and went completely
through the right lung. Cobie was
enraged and to stop the assault upon
his father young Morris was compel
led to strike Cobie over the head
with an axe handle number OF
times. stunning him. When he recov'
ered he Jumped into his buggy again
and drove home.
Wound May Be Fatal
Morriss condition was so alarming
at midnight that a special train was
telegraphed for to Salt Lake to take
him to hospital The Oregon Shor
Line chartered a special train from
this city a few minutes later DR.
d. w. Henderson of this city board

I wish to state that my mother.

fering for several months from COM

care of several of FL Paso's leading
physicians she steadily grew worse,
until at ( consultation of three med

year her life was given up They told
US she only had a few days to live
and that even in case of bodily re-
covery she would remain a hopeless
mental wreck
On July 9Th we placed the case in
the hands of DR.. Gibson of your Os-

was unconscious and had been so for
