A "Spook" Industry for HALEY.

James Mclean and William Rem
Der are preparing to embark in a new
industry in or near HALEY. Mr.. Nc
Lean is making most of the prepare
tions.
The plan is to operate a banshee
farm, which they think will be very
profitable. Banshees will be raised
for their oil and hides, the former
being great rheumatism medicine
says Mr.. Mclean, and the hides will
be used as bird scares. These hides
can be hung in the cherry trees to
keep the robins off as well as small
boys. After the ranch is purchased
the banshees will be imported from
their native land, Ireland, and placed
on the farm. The ranch must be in
very thick timber, as these creatures
thrive in only the darkness, never ap.
pearing in the daylight.
II all goes we'll, 1t will not be lone
before we can hear the dismal how
Of the banshees along the river. Mr.
RENDER will be financial agent fol

and before medical attention could
be secured he passed away. Children
should be cautioned against eating
