Egg sucking dogs can be cured of
the habit by making small holes in
the ends of the eggs, blowing out a
portion of the contents and inserting
in one of the holes as much tartar
emetic as can be held on the point of
a knife. The dog that gets this egg
will think he is sent for and can't come
and will give eggs a wide berth there
after.

A young lady. nineteen years old.
employed as a stenographer in a law
office at North Yakima. Wash, is
working a side line that bids fair to
make her some money. Realizing the
shortage of both beef and dairy cattle
she has been buying up all the heifer
calves obtainabe. She has rented
several lots near her home and already
has assembled there fine looking herd
of young stock. She is confident that
the price for heifers will advance to a
point which will enable her to realize
a nice profit She has followed the
principle Of buying when everybody

everybody else wants to buy. 1t kind

1t is hardly more than a truism to
observe that boys and girls will stop
leaving the farm when the conditions
there are made as interesting, as pleas
run as those to be found in towns and
cities. There is no solution of the
problem of keeping bright boys and
girls on the farm that can possibly
succeed that does not take definitely
into account the facts stated.

1t is little wonder that a good many
corn belt farmers have little faith in

as did the farmers of North Dakota.
Professor Ladd of the North Dakota
Agricultural college is authority for
the statement that the farmers of that
state during the past year paid more
than $4,000 for fake serums, an anal
ysis of one of which showed that it
contained nothing but water with a
very small percentage of potassium
iodide. This dope, which wasn't worth
continental as a cholera cure. cost
less than 8 cents an ounce. but gullible
grangers eagerly forked over their coin
for it at 81 an ounce.

 Now, however, with bright bus mess prospect ahead of us and the knowledge that within the next few months there will be thous- ands of people come to Alaska in search of homes, or 70 find work, or for the investment of capital, it behooves us to awaken and to let the outside world know the advan- tages We have to offer.

 And further, now is the time to get in and perfect the organization and get it in working order, for there is no telling what a month, or a week or even a day may bring forth in this northern land, which will soon become a scene of such hustle and activity as those who have experienced the quietness of the last few years can nave but slight conception of.

Loss of 497 Votes.

at the tabernacle last night.
I'VE run up against the same kind
of proposition over in the Buckeye
state that you folks do here" Mr. Rut-
ledge said. Some of the counties
along the border on the Ohio side are
dry, and the men go over in Indiana,
get bun and come whooping back
into Ohio, and We have to put up with
them. l guess it's the same with the
wet Ohio counties and dry Indiana
territory, so we're both in the same
boat.
Il was up in Main for a month,
where they tell you 'speak-easies'
abound. But blind tigers there don't
run unmolested. Bangor has few of
them, but they will get those out soon.

so much blind tiger since I've been
here that l am almost seeing things

have in Richmond, a blind tiger or

kind of liquor as the blind ones.

I'm dry territory We have no trouble
apprehending blind tigers and getting
into dry territory, but if your saloon
keepers would stop doing that you
would break up the blind tiger busi-
ness in forty-eight hours. l challenge
the vets to agree not to run any
blind tigers, and l already have Mr..
Nicholson's promise that he will not
run any.
"The liquor dealers have conceded
every point made against them, except
the blind tigers. Now it's up to them
to come across with a pledge not to
run them when you vote the town dry.

''In reference to the Desengano mine
