To Farmers and Everyone

/ want you to hear Alfred Docking
when ire speaks here on September
18th. Mr. Docking is a lecturer for
the Grange, not the Union but the
two organizations are SO nearly 1den-
tieal i'm aims they can readily work
together To my mind Mr.. Docking
is the most able speaker on his sub
Iect that / have ever heard and he
will tell you what they are doing in
his line, let it be any county in the
world There is much misconception
as to the true aims and objects OF
these farmers organizations not only
among men OF different business so
that often an uncalled for aDtago-
nisn is the result.
Come and listen to Mr.. Docking
and / believe you Will go away with
a clearer idea of these things and a
better feeling toward each other in
addition to listening to one OF the
most entertaining speakers.
The Hays band @il furnish music
for the occasion.

TIRED OUT THE SEA LION
Hawaiian Swimmer Grabbed Tall and
Hung On Until Captive was
Forced to Give Up

Diving on the new municipal piers
at Hermosa, CAL, in sight of thou
sands, George Freeth, noted Ha-
waiian swimmer. seized the tail of q
young sea lion, swimming in the sea,
and after battle that lasted for half
an hour hoisted the animal into q
boat from which the astonished occu-
pants sprang into the water in their
fright
Freeth's left hand and arm were
badly lacerated in the struggle, and
patches of skin were gashed from his
legs by the animal, which used teeth
and f1ippers in a mad fight for free
DOM When the three boys who oc-
cupied the boat climbed aboard again
one of them was severely bitten ON
the leg
Freeth is instructor at the Los An
geles Athletic club, and was giving
an exhibition of his prowess as q
diver when he noticed q young sea
hon in the vicinity of the small skin
containing three young boys.
The sea lion kept close to the boat,
and Freeth swan out to the skin from
the wharf. He got aboard the boat,
and waited an opportunity when the
sea lion was close, then dove after
him and managed to catch him by the
tail.
Then issued one of the fercest bat
ties ever seen in the water. One min
ute the sea hon and man were on the
surface of the water and the next
they were out of sight, and the big
crowd would hold its breath until the
| combatants were again on the sur
| face. The man, however, managed to
| tire ont the sea lion, as it had a fish
line fast in its mouth and the swim
mer hung to Il tail and the line until
| 1t was captured.

DOGS AS ARTILLERY HORSES
Proposition Under Consideration In
France Seems to Have Much to
Recommend It

The French First army corps is said
to be considering the adoption of dogs
for hauling artillery. The dogs in
question are the big Flemish animals,
which are largely utilized in the north
of France for dragging milk carts and
other vehicles.
From the economic standpoint there
is a good deal to be said in favor of
the replacement of the horse by the
dog SO far as light artillery is con-
cerned. A good Flemish dog can be
bought for 100 francs, and the cost of
feeding 1t does not exceed fifty
confines a day. The lowest price
OF an artillery horse is 400 francs, and
the daily cost of its upkeep amounts
to two francs. In other words, the
first cost of the horse is at least four
times as great, and it costs four times
as much to feed. Moreover, for 100
francs it is possible to buy a dog in
much better condition than the ma
jority Of the French artillery horses.

He Knew That Money Talks.

I He couldn't talk English, though per-
haps he understood little, but he
knew thing or two. He was riding
on a huckster's wagon past a public
school. His partner had gone into a
house to sell some truck, and he was
learning the business. His clothes
were ragged and shabby, much like
those of the stage tramp. The chill
dren started to jeer at him, making
remarks about his clothes. He seemed
to understand that they were making
fun of his clothes, SO he reached in
his pocket and pulled out the bromide
roll of bills that would choke a cow"
These bills he waved at the children,
for apparently he believed that money
would insure respect, even If he did
have old clothes.

BEAUTY IN THE FAR NORTH
Magnificent Displays of Color when
the Arctic Sun Shines for
Brief Period.

Nature has provided wonderful dis
plays of color as an Offset to the ex-
IRENE desolation of the far north A
traveller in Alaska describes in vivid
style one of the short-day appearances
OF the Arctic sun as follows:
First a greenish glow on the south
ern horizon, Frightening into lemon
and then into clear primrose, inyades
the deep purple of the starry heavens
Then a beautiful circle of blush pink
above a circle of pure amethyst gradu-
ally stretches all around the edge OF
the sky, slowly frightening while the
stars fade out and the heavens change
to blue.
THE dead white mirror of the snow
takes every tint that the skies display
with a faint but exquisite radiance.
Then the suns disk appears with
flood of yellow light, but with no ap-
probable warmth, and for a little
space his level rays shoot out and gid
the tree tops and the distant hills.
THE snow springs to life Dead
white no longer, it's dry, crystalline
particles glitter in myriads of dia-
mond facets with every color of the
prism. Then the sun is gone, and
the lovely circle of rose pink over
amethyst again stretches round the
horizon, slowly fading until once more
the pale primrose CLOVIS in the south
against the purple sky with its silver
: stars

After the Forest Fire.

Wallace, Idaho, is still suffering
from the disastrous forest fires of
1910, which burned over the water
shed that furnishes the water supply
of the city. This basin included an
area of 1000 acres and was formerly
well timbered with trees from fifty
to two hundred years old. These
were destroyed by the fires of 1910.
The city used to get its water supply
not only for domestic purposes, but
also for the development of electric
ity for power and light from that wa
tershed. Before the fires the flow of
the stream, at its lowest stages, was
never below 1000 miners inches.
Since the fire the records show that
the minimum flow has fallen to
about two hundred and fifty miners
inches Each year they have to
get power from steam and to use
a considerable part of this power in
pumping water. Records of the
weather bureau at Wallace show that
the precipitation for the years since
the fire has been about normal for
the region This seems to demon
strate that the unevenness in the flow
must be due to the destruction of the
forest cover of the watershed and not
to any change in climate or precipita-
ton The United States forest serv-
ice has undertaken to reforest the
denuded watershed.

Nice .stinction.

In regard to .e question of prefer
ence as betWe bachelor and bene-
dict, it is always pleasant to revert to
the delicate di-.taction set forth by
General Lafayette in a conversation
during his second visit to America.
He shook hands with 5000 men in one
day, says the legend. and used but
seven words in all. He asked each
one: Are you narried?" If the an
swer was yes, he exclaimed: 'Fortu-
nate fellow!" If no, Lucky dog!"
After long levee, friend asked how
the general could reconcile his con-
CALCULATIONS to welded and single men
alike The Frenchman laughed and
answered.: 'Why,~my dear boy, can
you not perceive the vast difference
between lucky dog and a fortunate
rellow?"

PREPARED FOR ~RAINY DAY"
Ameer of Bot<har1 Said TO BE Storing
Up Treasure at the Rate Of
$4,000, 900 Year.

The largest private hoard in the
world is probably that owned by the
Ameer of Bokhara, the Russian vassal
state in Central Asia, writes the St
Petersburg correspondent of the New
York Sun. According to the Turke-
stanskiye Kraj the Ameer possesses
in his stronghold a vault 315 feet long,
As feet wide and 20 feet high, COM
pletely filled with gold bars and coined
gold.
Some years ago the Ameer had an
other vault built to hold his savings,
and the new storehouse is now almost
full There is at the Bokharan court
an enormous cash book, which has
served for generations and in which
all revenues and expenditures are sup
posed TO be put down, but also for gen.
erations it has never been checked
with the cash in hand"
Grating is the easiest thing in the
world at Bokhara- The Ameer's OFF,
Gals draw no salary. They are ap-
pointed on the understanding that
they must keep themselves on what
they can make out of their various
Offices There is no budget, and the
largest permanent charge on the
s Ameer's income is one of $4,000 an
nually for local hospital Then there
is a small contribution toward the up
keep of the Russian police in the pro
tectorate and the maintenance of the
Bokharan army which has shrunH
to a mere bodyguard.
The Ameer's annual savings, 1t IL
calculated, amount to more than 50,
100000 a year. He is by tradltiona
usage compelled to send every yeal
a number of valuable presents tt
the Russian authorities at Samarkant
and Tashkent. These presents con
sist of carpets, silks and the like
which are Immediately sold by the re
| cipients to native traders, from whom
the Ameer as regularly buys then

robbery. He was In q sort Of corral
about three feet high. with sides OF

And then the villain appeared. He
was a villain with a fiat little nose

stealthily up and peered inQuisitively
through the spindles at the very lit

out at him with that air OF worid-old

The fat little nose was thrust be

Possibly he was a little thief by ma

sudden temptation. But anyway, he
stole the toys of that very little boy,

the front porch of his home next door
where he was having the best time
possible when he was discovered and
the spofls OF his expedition taken
from him and returned to their right
