Work which has been under way
for the past year on the handsome
new home of G.. G.. Memminger in
Victoria, is rapidly nearing compile

THRESHERS.
Farm Club VIII Try New Plan
OF Grain Handling.

Some of the farmers of the north
end of the tract, have solved the
problem of raising grain in this
country. This week they shipped
in a Case steel thresher, with a
mounted horsepower to operate it,
and they expect to do their own
threshing from now on. The ma
chine will require twelve horses to
run it. 1t will give them a machine
exactly when they want it, for they
buy it, for their own use, and it will
not ever be taken away from home,
except as an accommodation. 1t is
easy to buy, since there is no ex-
pensive engine with it, and the ma
chine itself is small enough that
they can pay for it without ship
ping out a whole foundry and ma
chine shop. 1t is not for custom
work at all, but for their own use
They will have enough grain to
keep it busy for an ordinary sea-
son, without going off their own
farms. The Engle brothers, c. O.
Paulson, w. J. Taper and few
others of that section of the tract
are interested in the new outfit.

Richfeld had the first fire, Wsdnes
day night, that has visited the town il
five years. since the Spokane restur
ant burned just five years ago this
week.
Shortly after midnight, Burton's barr
was discovered to be on fire. Ed. Fein-
DEL sleeping at his place block north
was the first to see the blaze. The barr
was already mass of flames. He gave
the alarm, and in very few minutes
good sized crowd had gathered to
help fight the fire. There was strong
wind from the west, that famed the
flames most furiously; and before the
crowd could gather to render any as
sistancs whatever the barn and all its
contents was doomed. A man sleeping
in the barn did not waken with the first
alarm, and he barely escaped with his
life, leaving most of his clothes and all
his other belongings behind.
The most awful thing about the fire
was the burning of FIVE horses, one of
them being the imported stallion Taimes
bought two years ago by local horse
company. The other horses belonged
to Mr. Burton. A calf was also burned.
Two lines of hose were turned on the
fire, one on the barn itself from the
hydrant at the Mcmahon corner, and
the other from the corner south of
Andy Peterson's. 1t was almost mir
acle that the Peterson property was
saved, as it was directly in the track Of
the flame and the wind, and only the
most heroic efforts kept it from going
up in smoke. The building was on fire
several times, and the outside is char
red to cinder. Mr.. Peterson said at
one time that he considered the prop
erty worth about ten cents. wnen the
fire was at its worst. AS it is. he has
lost very little.
Ohe of the l.. ]. Poteet cottages, on
the company lots back of the property
he recently sold to the ]. A. Youngkin
company, was burned.
Fire caught in the old Iowa Lumber
Company shed across the street from
the livery barn, and was extinguished
only after hard fight. The building
was damaged very little.
F. ]. Schleiger tells of seeing Paul
Heinrich, accused of completely in start
ing the fire, go into his house while the
family were out looking after the burn
ing barn. He went into the place, and
saw Heinrich light match Immedi-
ately the flame blazed up, from some
garments on the wall. No fire from the

FOOD SHORTAGE.
London Times Says We Must
Farm Or Go Hungry.

The growing shortage of the food
production in America is alarming
Back to the soil and the necessity for
variation of products by individual
farmers, are the only apparent reme-
dies. Every farmer should raise few
beef cattle, a few sheep and few hogs
for market. The following is an ex-
tract from the London Times June s,
1914:
Eight years ago our imports Of
chilled and frozen meat from the Unit
ed States were valued at over 1000, 900
pounds ($25, 900, O00). In 1912 they had
sunk to Is, 900 pounds ($75, OO0). This
is by far the most striking change that
is at present taking place in the food
trade conditions of the world 1t means
that the once-g great export meat trade
of the United States is now practically
non-existsnt, and that unless the Amer
leans take steps to increase their home
production of this staple article of
food, they will not only cease to ex-
port, but will become to an increasing
extent, rival buyers in the markets Of
the world with ourselves and other ma
tions. We are also threatened with the
same menace in the egg trade by the
United States and Germany, both of
which, instead Of being able to supply
their own demand for eggs, are now
buying from Denmark, Russia and other
countries, from whom we have hitherto
derived supplies"
