always sweeten ice tea while it is still
fresh and hot. The heat melts the
sugar and diffuses it. 1t takes twice

principle in making cocoa add sugar
to the cocoa powder before stirring
it into a paste and adding to the hot
milk.
After slicing the bread for a meal,
scrape the crumbs from the board into

How to Get Your Gun in
Condition For Good Shooting
BY PETER p. CARNEY

Keeping a gun in condition is not
such a difficult task If one gives the
matter little care and attention, but
the trouble Is that sometimes one feels
little lazy and so friend" gun
suffers.
Among the many formulas given for
following is recommended:
Remove the old finish with an
emery cloth and polish the gun bar
rel, using care not to touch the bar
rel with the hands or oil after clean
ing. Then with a piece of absorbent
cotton apply a solution made of the
following:
Spirits of nitre. drains; tincture
of iron. drams: sulphur, dram
blue vitriol, 2 drams: corrosive SUBJ
Innate. dram; Metric acid, II dram
Copperas, l dram; rain water, IL
ounces.
Set the gun barrel away to dry
thoroughly and then repeat until
seven or eight coats have been ap-

piled. After the barrel has had
plenty of time to dry wash thoroughly
with a cloth and hot water, and polish
with piece of soft wool dampened
with linseed oil.
For reducing barrels without heat
ing the following applies:
Wipe the gun barrel free and clean
off oil, rust or any other deposits then
apply nitric acid. using care to see that
none of the acid touches the hands
neutralize with water or a soda solu-
ton, oil the barrel and burnish. Un-
less you have had some experience un-
to leave the blueing process to a gun
smith.

well and favorably known by number
of the early settlers of Idaho county.
In speaking of his death the Lewiston
paper says:
Walter S. Dyer, an Idaho pioneer,
oned yesterday morning ut the st.
Joseph hospital, the cause of death
being diabetes and complications incl
dent to old age. Mr.. Dyer had been at
the hospital since March | and during
the past few weeks had been failing
rapidly.
The deceased was born at Portland,
Maine, on January Is, 1894, and came
west TO California in the early so
He later came to the Walla Walla coun.
try and reached Idaho during the min.
ing stampede days of the 60 8. He

UNCLE sam PROUD OF THEM
Some Now MOunted-Reports of Com
pulsory Enlistment in Regular
Army Erroneous.

From reports available at this time
it looks as though the Idaho boys will
not be held long ON the border. Re.
Gently the government has mounted O
number of Idaho companies, including
Company E from Grangeville, and will
use them to take the place of regulars
who will be assigned at another station
along the border. That the Idaho
troops have made good is beyond ques-
tion and the fact that the government
has decided to mount number of them
and use them to take the place of the
regulars is matter of pride to the
boys as well as citizens in Idaho. 1t
seems an erroneous report gained circu-
lation locally to the effect the boys
would be Iorced to join the regular
army but the kilograms from Capt Kad-
ing and Sergeant Fisher should prove
sufficient to clear up the matter.

BOY SERIOUSLY HURT.

Jewel Bassinger, the sixteen year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. John +. Bassinger,
was seriously injured Tuesday afternoon
by being bucked from horse into a
wire fence. The young man, in COM
pany with Albert Taylor, was ridding
in the vicinity of the orchard, south of
the Taylor residence when for some
cause the animal ridden by young Bas
singer bucked him off into the wire
fence along the road. He was dragged
for some distance through the wire and
as result the flesh of his left thigh
was cut to the bone. DR.. Slusser was
called and stitched up the wound. While
the accident was serious enough the boy
is fortunate in escaping as well as he
did, all things considered. Reports to-
day are to the effect that he is getting
along nicely and will be able to get
around before many weeks.
