Speaking about sure cures for hog
cholera: A farmer who had raised
a family of children noticed that for
years whenever one of the children
got sick they got bottle of medicine
put up according to their special
complaint. These bottles, with about
half the contents used out, would
be showed back on a closet shelf.
When eholera broke out among his
hogs ne found fifteen or twenty of
those partly filed bottlues of medi-
le and happy idea struck him
He poured all those remnants togeth-
er, shook them thoroughly and gave
the entire prescription TO the biggest
and best hog. And in thirty minutes
that swine was immune from any
future attack OF cholera

To cross the Payette river near the

Of the dweller in town, for the cross

the current grips his craft and before
he enters the back water near the

a saucer-shaped benchland, fashioned

In the summer sun it lies brown and

Mystery Surrounds Finding of Con

In your paper occasionally reae
that Mr.. So and So lost a COW last
week. This, of course, is news ano
should be printed. Acting from 6
deep sense of duty therefore l offer q
bit of news which is not so melan-
choly. l found something several
days ago while / was in the Owyhee
mountains about a days ride from
civilization in that territory known
as the Owyhee Breaks-north and
west of Three Finger Butte. While
jogging along across country uncon-
cernedly all at once l made dis
covery. This, as l think now of it, is
the genuine way of discovering any
thing. Well, that was the way l
found it. There on the hard stony
ground miles from trail, near a
bunch of dry grass, lay a doughnut.
dismounted hastily and bent
over it. Carefully examined it's sur
roundings for marks or tracks which
might explain its presence here. There
were no tracks or marks.
/ then examined the nut itself vey
closely. 1t was bleached out and sun
burnt. Sunshine, rain, frost, snow
and the wind had all tried to mar it.
Yet like all works of true art it tri-
umphantly endured. The marks of
time but made it more enchanting.
Taking out my pocket lens scrutin-
lied it more minutely. Evidently it
was an abandoned doughnut.

trast was ludicrous. How it had hap
pened there l cannot tell. Had some
vaquero lost it in his mad flight after
wild horses? Had some air man
dropped it accidentally or thrown it
over as ballast? Or had some savage
ird of prey seized it and flown here
TO wrestle it upon this stony bit of
heather? Who knows? There were
no marks of violence upon its coun-
tenance.
How long it had laid there none
may never know. 1t IS hard to deter

doubtful thing as a doughnut. There
