ACT II


The scene shifts to Georges barn
yard, where after much persuasion
the buck is delivered. Proudly
George called the missus' attention tc
his new possession, pointed out its
fine points those trim legs, the heavy
fleece that covered its back, the dinky
little tail that famed the ambient at
mosphere with the regularity of q
30-day clock, that neck corded with
muscles like prize fighter, that head
with gnarled and twisted horns--an
that was the crowning feature! Such
an animal was King with power to
enforce his mandates and the Jersey
COW of noble birth was a fit compan-
ion. The buck was gentle, too; a
paradox of docility; most lovable
animal The good wife was credu-
lous, in spite of Georges eloquence,
but gracefully acquiesced into accept
ing the addition to the household pets,
and the new acquisition was forgotten
while partaking of the MONDAY meal.
Little they dreamed of the storm
that was then brewing in the barn
yard. The Jersey cow, for long
time not only queen of the barnyard,
but king, czar, emperor and boss all
rolled into one, liked not the looks of
this intruder, and wasted no time in
showing her displeasure. With head
couchant and tail rampant she
charged and the buck went down and
took the count-apparently. After
prodding the prostate beast few
times and paving it with her feet,
she retired to one corner to bloat over
the downfall of this vaunted King.
But to the cows surprise, the buck
arose, shook the kinks out of his neck
and Strengthened his legs. The COW
lowered her head for another charge.
The buck accepted the challenge, and
his muscles became tense,
his eyes blazed with the fury of a de-
mon. For just a moment he eyed
his adversary and then quick as a
flash he hurled himself at
the COW. The impact was terrific. 1t
was like two powerful locomotives
meeting headon. The COW was
thrown upon her launches, but quick
ly recovered herself and as the buck
backed off to renew the onslaught, she
to defend herself. Again
the buck crashed into her, breaking
one of her horns and cutting gashes
into her hide. The third charge was
too much, and with a leap she clear
ed the fence and retreated in disorder.
The last seen of her she was headed
for the South Slope, her tail still

COYOTES BECOMING A
MENACE
Destroy Thousands of Dollars
Worth of Live Stock for
Emmett Farmers

Since the legislature two years age
removed the bounty on predatory an
lmals, coyotes have become so numer-
GUS as to be positive menace to the
farmers of this section, and I'M
doubtedly to many other sections OF
the state. Here in the Emmett Coun-
try they cause a loss of many thou
sands of dollars every year to the
poultry raisers alone, not taking into
account the enormous losses to the
sheepmen.
The coyotes are so numerous and
daring that they invade the very sub
burbs of town and carry off fowls. The
raising of turkeys in this section has
become a very important industry,
and is worth annually 100000. 1t
would be double that were it not for
the ravages of coyotes. During the
past year the losses have been very
heavy, and have increased at an
alarming rate since the removal of
the bounty.
The old bounty system has been
demonstrated to be far superior to
the system in vogue during the past
two years, and should be re-enacted
in the interest of the farmers.
In Oregon, the same condition pre-
walls and the legislature will place a
bounty of S. on coyotes for year, at
least.

Standard Fruit Barrel

For the first time in history the
federal government will exercise its
constitutional control over the
weights and measures of the country
in bill agreed to Wednesday by the
house and which already has passed
the senate, establishing a standard
barrel for fruits, vegetables and other
dry commodities. Heretofore all eff
forts to pass measures through con-
gress for that purpose have failed.
The standard barrel bill, introduced
by Representative Tuttle, provides for
a barrel with 211 Inch slaves and
171s inch heads, made of material
not thicker than four-tenths of an
inch. However, any barrel having a
capacity of 1866 cubic inches will be
considered standard.

Proposed Game Law

A bill introduced in the state leg
islature for the protection of fish anc

more than 20 birds of all kinds in
one day. The open season for deer
is from September to November 80
and only buck deer may be killed
Bull elk may be killed in only Ere
mount, Madison and Bonneville. Fe-
male elk, deer and mountain sheep
are protected at all seasons.

EMMETT WINS FIRST GAME
Defeats Star High School in Open
ing Game Basketball League

The initial game in the Inter-scho-
lastic Basketball league, between the
Star and Emmett High school fves,
was easily won by the locals, Friday
evening. Score Is to 81.
There was no particularly fine play
ing on either side, team work being al
most negligible quantity, but the
Emmett boys had more "pep," and
were more adept in throwing bas-
kets. Rein Jackson led in basket
throwing, and Floy Clark and Carl
ton Lathrop made good records, the
former making several baskets at
difficult angles. Mack Crouch and
Melvin Bogardus excelled in interfer-
ence. The penalties were about
equally divided. The score in the first
half was SO to 8; second half 16 to s..

An incident in connection with the
visit of the Star team that was deeply
deplored was the burglarizing of the
room in which the two teams had left
their clothes while playing and the
theft of jewelry, watches and money
from the clothes. Entrance to Ward
well building was gained by prying
open "a window in the basement.
Nearly everything of value in the
pockets of the clothes was taken.
The loss to the Star boys was con-
siderable, and a number of the En-
NETT boys suffered the loss of both
watches and cash all told about
S75. Several of the watches taken
were Christmas gifts and on that
account were particularly priced. The
job; it is believed was done by two or
three young fellows.

George H. Fullerton, the well
known sporting writer says: In
baseball the surprises are to be many.
In the American League Boston will
win the pennant rather handily, with
Chicago second and Washington third.
Boston's Braves, now worlds cham
pions, will have hard time finishing
fourth in the National League, and
Brooklyn will make a hard fight for
the pennant, being beaten out toward
the end by New York. The worlds
series will be a romp for the Bos-
ton Red Sox. In the Pacific Coast
League San Francisco, under new
control, will win the pennant."

up and anything that moved was an
enemy. To make matters worse, as
