Bitten By Mad Dog

While herding his flock of
sheep near Soda Springs Aug
ust 7, Pablo Etturife was bitten
by a dog which latter developed
rabies. No serious results de-
veloped until September Z, just
thirty days from the day he was
bitten. He was brought to the
Soda Springs hospital last Thurs
day suffering intense agony and
died in convulsions.
This is the first case of the
kind in this part of Idaho. An
unsuccessful attempt was made
to interest the state sanitary de-
partneat. The head Of the in
fected dog was sent to Boise.
Two other sheep men who be-
came infected are now taking
treatment at the Kackley hos
pital under the personal super
vision of DR.. Kackley.

The official canvass of the
primary election votes last week
at Boise brought to light the fact
that VIM. T. Dougherty, of Rich
field, defeated Joseph Hanson, of
Preston, for the nomination Of
secretary of state on the demo-
cratic ticket by 101 votes. The
nomination had been conceded to
Hanson for several days.
What is said to be the richest
gold strike ever made in Idaho
was uncovered recently in the
old Atlanta camp eighty miles
from Boise and which had lain
dormant for more than twenty
years. The bonanza pay streak,
from two to ten inches thick, was
opened for a distance of 280 feet
and samples more than $4,000 to
the ton. Average samples run
from 5000 to $500 to the ton.
The discovery is a thousand feet
below the crest.

Hog Prices Go Soaring

Nine and a quarter cents a
pound was the price offered here
Monday for fat hogs for ship
ment to Spokane and coast points
but at even these attractive
prices the sales were by no
means heavy. In fact, the big
price being paid for grain is
causing many farmers to dispose
of their hogs as feeders even at
a couple of cents below fat hog
prices and the hog shipments
will not be nearly as heavy this
fall as usual. The low prices
quoted for hogs last fall and win
ter caused many of them to go
out of the business entirely and
others cut down their herds ma
terially, so the hog crop was
quite a lot below normal. In the
course of the next six weeks the
hogs now fattening in the stub
BILE fields will be ready for mar
ket but after these are disposed
of the sales will be light for the
rest of the year and it is believed
the present high price of grain
will result in very few hogs being
held over by the farmers even
for breeding purposes. This will
result in great scarcity of hogs
for the next year at least anC
prices can be expected to main
tain even a higher level than tbs

Got Fine Price For Big Crop

M. F. Rogers and son, w. R.
Rogers, were in town Wednesday
from east of Greencreek and re-
ported having ju s finished
threshing their crops and selling
the same. They threshed about
5000 bushels this year and mar
keted it at 81. rs per hundred for
white barley and SIP per bushel
for Marquis wheat. The younger
man had almost dedided to sell
his holdings and quit farming
last spring but later changed his
mind and is now quite glad he
did so. Lee johnson, a step-son
of Mr.. Rogers, is also harvesting
a big crop in that same locality.
He had over 500 acres in crop
this year, part of which was In
dian land, and we are told his
crop will total more than 1000
bushels. At present prices he
will realize a small fortune from
his years labor and will be able
to retire if he so desires.

PREPARING FOR
THE BIG FAIR
Committees Busily At Work
Fixing For Big Show--Out-
look Good for Many Fine
Exhibits.

Everybody is busy this week
getting ready for the big fair
and stock show the coming week
and if the weather man will only
grant US a continuation Of the
present good weather Cotton
wood will put up a fair next
week that will be a credit to a
town several times the size of
this little burg.
From reports received from the
surrounding country the exhibits
of livestock, grain, fruits and
vegetables will be quite large in
spite of the fact that many farm
ers are still engaged in harvest
work and are unable to give
much attention to the preparing
of exhibits. Very satisfactory
reports have been received from
the superintendents of the live
stock department and they assure
US of some very nice exhibits in
this line, some of the best known
breeders of the county having
promised to be here with their
herds.
Quarters for the livestock are
being prepared this week and
will be so arranged that the
stock and sightseers can be kept
in the dry, no matter what the
weather may be.
The well known Kamiah In
dian band of 25 pieces has been
secured for all three days of the
fair and will supply plenty of
music, while there will be no end
of other amusements. The
sports committee has something
up it's sleeve for each afternoon
at the ball park and some conf
cal stunts" may be looked for.
The parade on the morning OF
the opening day will also be a
feature worth going miles to see,
while the stock judging and lee
lures by men from the state uni
versity on the second day will be
of particular interest to the
farmers and stockmen.
Another feature of no small
Importance will be the sale OF
purebred and grade stock on the
afternoon of the last day by auc-
tioneer Harry C. Cranke, of Spo.
kane. Besides the stock offered
for sale by the exhibitors, it is
the desire of the fair manage
ment that other livestock be
brought in from the surrounding
country and offered for sale thai
day. All stock sold will be auc
toned off to the highest bidder
the same as at the larger stock
shows.
Oh, yes! We almost forgot tht
most attractive feature of the en-
tire program: That is the big
free barbecue dinner on the open
ing day, when a fine, fat steel
will be roasted whole and dishet
out, with the usual trimmings
to the hungry. This feature, i
is believed, will prove especial!
attractive to visitors from a dis
tance and we hope there will b.
plenty here from Lewiston AM
intermediate points to "tak
care" of this part of the pro
gram successfully.
Yes, it is going to be a rea
fair, even if it is the first one
and you will be sorry later if yo
let anything keep you at home.

Monday from Grangeville.
