June 25

1t will be gladstone to the people
of Blackfoot and surrounding country

visited by the famous Gentry shows,
whose reputation for nearly thirty
years has been of the highest calibre.

interest in the event
With no other exhibition can be
seen such priceless collection of
beautiful Shetland ponies, who are
and ever will be, the souls delight of
every little boy and girl in the land
The wonderful dogs and comical mon
key comedians and other features too
numerous to mention makes the Gen
try shows stand out entirely in a class
by themselves.
Many years of persistent effort on
the part of Gentry brothers have en-
abled them to present an entertain
ment that not only pleasas the vast
public but gives it an insight into
the superior training Of animals al
most uncomfortable.
1t is universally known that the
Gentry shows are of the highest grade
both in merit and standing, and it
can readily be taken for granted that
a genuine treat is in store for those
who attend either one or both of the
performances to be given here next
Thursday.
It has been Gentry custom to give
every child attending the matinee per-
Torrance, which commences at 2
o'clock in the afternoon, free ride
on their finest trained ponies immedi-
ately after the show is over. This
custom has won them countless
thousands of little friends every
where, who look forward to the com
ing of Gentry brothers with all the
delight that the average child looks
forward to the dawn Of Christmas
morning or the joys of Santa Claus.

Out at o. F. Smiths there are
flowers galore, and anybody wishing
to see what can be made out of soil

LANTERN IS HANDY
ABOUT THE FARM
win Be Found Useful in Cellar,
Where There Is Danger OF
Fruit Freezing.

Outside of it's use at night the Ian
tern may be used in other ways about
the farm
Where a bedroom is situated at a
considerable distance from the
warmer rooms the lantern or lamp
placed in the room an hour or two be-
fore retiring will help to remove the
chill from the room.
When there is an unusually cold
night and there is danger Of the fruit
and vegetables freezing in the cellar,
light the lantern and leave 1t there
over night.
One must make sure that the Ian
tern is hung up securely or 30 placed
that it will not be upset, SO there will
be no danger of setting the house on
fire.
A vessel of live Goals may be used
in the same manner. but they too
must be carefully arranged to prevent
setting fire to anything, and II rats are
accustomed to visit cellar 1t would
perhaps be safer to place no fire there
whatever, as the rodents are very
likely to scatter 1t and cause trouble.

HIGH CORN YIELDS SECURED
Best Results Obtained From Slightly
Taperins Ears, Says Expert Of
Texas Sub Statlon.

The superintendent OF the Texas
s~ub.station at Temple. after a careful
study OF corn, concludes that slightly
tapering parent ears give the highest
Yield. This is more In accord with
the results than cylindrical ears. High
Yields we're associated with compare
lively smooth kernels Of slightly more
than average depth and Of medium
horniness. The yield increased with
an increase in the total weight Of the
ear as determined by slight increase
in length, amount OF grain, and rather
marked increase In weight Of cob.
In experiments at the Ohio and Ne
braska experimental stations 1t was
found that the highest yields were
obtained with medium to medium long
ears. Poorly filed butts and tips
were more frequently associated with
high yields than wellhlled, but high
Yields were more frequently associat-
