Poisoning Rabbits.

Harry Anderson, of the Ander.
son-Gwinn company, was in the
city Thursday from the Crowley
ranch in Barron Valley, coming
in in his new auto on a brief
business trip.
In conversation with the En-
terprise man, Mr.. Anderson
said: II have found what / be-
lieve to be a solution to the rab-
bit pest. ex-governor GoodinG >
son was at my place recently,
and told me how the people of
Shoshone county, Idaho, had prac-
tically fid that county of the rab-
bits by the use of strychnine.
II Immediately purchased $75
worth of poison. made a solution
and soaked some wheat in it over
night. then scattered the grain
thinly along the rabbit trails
about our hay stacks, where the
rabbits were most numerous. !

Library Club Meets.
Communicated

The first meeting of the Libra
ry Club after the holiday season
met at the home of Mrs. J. w

The opening number was a re
citation by Miss Enid Cawlfield
Ring out Wild Bells"

quotations from miscellaneous
authors.
One of the most interesting
papers of the year, was prepared
and read by "Auntie" hampshire,
on why we celebrate Christmas,
also giving the reasons for many
of our much loved Yuletide Gus
toms.

1t On" which was very much
appreciated by all.

High School Short Course,
(Contributed)

But a short two weeks now re-
main until the Harvey County
High School opens its doors to
welcome the students to the first
Winter Short Course ever given
by a similar institution within
the boundaries of the state.
To date not a great number of
people have signified their inten-
tion to take the course by send
ing in their names for registra-
ton. but in the interval between
the present date and the opening
of the course. a goodly number
of registrations are expected; ;
and of course some people will
not register until work begins.
The main object of the course
is to give in the most condensed
form and in the most practical
way, the largest amount of infor-
nation and training in scientific
Agriculture and Home Econo-
mics that is possible in the short
period of four weeks.
The course will be conducted in
a somewhat different manner
than were the Farmers Weeks
of the two previous years. In
stead of lectures entirely, instruc-
tion will be given by the tex
book method. supplemented by
demonstrations by the instructor
and practical exercises perform
ed by the individual students.
The work will not be repiti-
ton of that covered during the
preceding short courses held in
Burns, but will be rather a con-
tinuation of that work, taking
up those phases as were impossi-
BILE by the lecture method, es-
pecially in the short space of one
week. One of the chief purposes
of the course is the dissemination
of knowledge of rural life among
those who find it impossible to
take the regular courses offered |
by the school, and large numbers
should avail themselves of the
opportunity to broaden their
knowledge of subjects relating
to rural welfare.

New Maternity Hospital.

Mrs. Fireoved has just equipped
a new hospital that will be used
exclusive for maternity cases. II
is new building with new fur
niture and is conveniently ar.
ranged for the purpose. Mrs.
Fireoved has established a rep.
utation in this line and is one OF
the most cleanly women of this
section and also a fine nurse.
She is deserving and 1t is certain.
ly fine thing for the community
to have such an establishment.
The Times-Herald does not
hesitate to recommend this insti.
tuition to the public as it has every
confidence in the lady and feels
patients will receive the very best
of care when under her care.

In starting hog raising growers

In starting hog raising growers
need not be concerned very SER
iously about the breed Of hogs
they select, according to the o.
A. c. Animal Husbandry depart
ment. Each of the three princi-
pal breeds in Oregon, Poland
China, Berkshire and Duroc Jer-
sey, has its points of superiority
and inferiority, and there is said
to be about as much difference in
individuals as between breeds.
Some run more to the fat hog and
lard type and others more to the
bacon type, while some are rather
earlier maturing than others.
But the main consideration in
selecting the breed is to choose
the one that suits the breeders
ideas and purposes best, and tnen
stick to it and build it up by
careful selection and proper man.

perceptlbly scarcer.
Finally my attention was call.
ed to the fact that there was 6
large pile of dead rabbits dowr
in one corner of the field. and
upon investigation found thou
sands of the pests dead and piled
upon each other.
Il have been giving away the
psison to my neighbors who will
use it. and / believe a systematic
use of this method of poisoning
them will soon result in their
complete determination.
The county court of Shoshone
county Idaho, bought large guam
titles of strychnine and gave it
to the settlers who would use it,
and l believe" continued Mr..
Anderson, that it would be a
good investment if Malheur
county would adopt the same
plan. 1t is certainly far cheaper
and more effective than tn e
bounty plan.
by scattering the poisoned
grain thinly upon the ground,
stock will not get 1t but the rab-
bits will pick up every grain. -

GOLDEN WEDDING.


ment was called upon recently to
print invitations for the celebra-
tiqn Of the golden wedding Of
MI. and Mrs. T.. N. Jameson at
the home of their daughter, Mrs.
H. M. Horton, in this city, on
January 10.
II was, indeed, a happy COM
pany that gathered at this home
last evening when this estimable
old couple were surrounded by
their children and their families,
it being the first time the entire
family had assembled together
for years. Four children were
present: Mrs. Lee Caldwell, Mrs.
H. M. Horton, Mrs. Chas. A.
King and Grover N. Jameson.
Seven grand children and five
great-grand children, the four
generations being represented.
There were fifty-eight present,
all relatives. The venerable old
couple were the recipients of
numerous appropriate and costly
presents.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jameson have
resided in Burns since 1885 and
have made many friends during
this period who join in wishing
them many happy returns Of the
day.
The rooms were decorated with
white carnations and chrysathe-
NUNS, gold and white being the
predominating colors throughout.
The place cards at the banquet
being hand painted in gold.
After the banquet the evening
was spent in social converse,
music and recitations.
The following, written by the
aged mother Of DIR. II. M. Horton,
was sent from her home in Cali
fornia and read during the even
ing:
Fifty years ago today, when
Dad and Mother were blithe and
gay. they started together on
life's highway.
Uneventful the journey till
one dark night, a darling was
left by a stork in its flight.
So. one by one, they came to
the home, happy indeed that none
now roam.
Dad and Mother felt happy and
blest, as each little head was laid
on her breast.
Many changes have come with
the years; mingled with hard
ships, trials and tears,
But with earnest endeavor and
without repining. they find each |
cloud has its silver lining"
They've passed the rocks, the
swamps. the hills; the River of
Doubts" and all such ills, by low
ing and trusting each other.
More precious than gold is the
monument here. of children and
grand children assembled here.
May comforts surround them,
and all that are dear; and thus
they will welcome each coming
