Beets are amoung our most useful
vegetables, since they may be had
all thru the summer and may also
be stored in good condition for
winter use. Sometimes beets are cut
in small pieces, after boiling, and
served with white sauce, but the
most common as well as the most
palatable way of serving them is
with butter.

Cut the onions in slices and boil
in sailed water for 10 minutes. Drain
well and return to the stewpan.
For a quart and a half of onion,
measured before it was boiled, add
two tablespoonful of butter, n
te%aspoonful Of salt, and one-fourth
of a teaspoonful of pepper. Cover
the stewpan and cook over a hot
fire for five minutes, shaking the pan
to prevent the onion from browning.
Set the stewpan back where the con-

INDIAN CAPTIVE IS FOUND
William Barnhart Sees Cousin Whose
Mother Was Seized Seventy
Years Ago.

Pendleton, Ore.-William Barnhart,
a Umatilla Indian, returned home the
other morning from Fort Hall reserva-
ton in Idaho, where he found the
daughter of his aunt, whose mother
was captured 20 years ago by the Ban
mock Indians and held in slavery.
The woman was captured in the
early forties on camp of his fathers
between La Grande and Weiser. His
father, whose name was also William
Barnhart, escaped In the raid, but his
fathers mother and several relatives
were killed and his fathers sister was
taken.
Young William Barnhart had often
heard his father tell of the raid, and
expressed q great desire to trace his
aunt. Handicapped because of lack
of familiarity with the BannOck
tongue, he finally found an interpreter.
After a three-day search, he ran
across an old Indian, who informed
him that his aunt had died II years
ago, and that her daughter, Mamie
Bell, was married and living on the
reservation. Other Indians remem-
bered the events Of the capture of Nam
MES mother.

Dead on Books of G. A. r.
Post.

New YOrk.-JOSeph J. ODOnneli,
"dead" these 81 years, came to life
one night recently. His friends had
not seen or heard from him since 1850,
and it was officially recorded on the
books of the Lafayette post, 6. a. H..
that he had heard the final taps.
SO there was Joy in the home Of his
sister, Mrs. George Bolster, No. 30
Dill place, Ridgewood, Queens, last
night, when O'Donnell's companions in
arms-veterans of the One Hundred
and Sixty-ffth infantry of New York
held reception for the one that had
been lost and was found.
In 1864 O'Donnell, then sixteen, en-
listed and served with his regiment
until it was mustered out September
/, 1865. A year later he joined the
Eighth cavalry, and served five years.
Then he went west and worked as a
cowboy.
Drops Out of Sight.
His letters reached his relatives here
and were answered until 1880, when
they began to come back. Mrs. Bolster
recently asked the war department to
inform her where her brother had been
buried. The answer was that he was
alive and in the Soldiers home at
Leavenworth, Kan. She wrote to him
and he arrived last week.
Another sister, Mrs. Mary Jane
Healy, lives at No. S53 Fresh Pond
road, Ridgewood, and a brother, James
O'Donnell, at No. 165 East One Hun
bred and Fifty-fifth street, New York.

exist. However. where perennial
cover crop such as alfalfa is grown
other control measures must be taken.
Efficient protection may be secured
by banding the trees with cotton bat
ting or with some sticky substance. In
experiments by the department an
eight inch strip of cotton batting was
placed about the trunk Of each tree
and tied with cord about the middle.
The upper half of the cotton band was
then rolled down over the cord. Good
results also were obtained by applying
to the trunks of the trees band Of a
commercial sticky substance one-eighth
inch thick and three inches wide. The
lower limbs Of the trees should be kept
well up from the ground, and any
props used also should be banded.
bands should be put on in the latter
part Of August and left on until after
the fruit is harvested.

Profit In Pure Bred Hoas.

If you want to get started in pure
bred hogs cheaply buy pure bred gilt
due to farrOw in the spring and good
pure bred boar pig. You can use this
boar on the SOW and the sow pigs next
fall and also the following year. BY
raising two filters a year you can have
ten or twelve pure bred sows and gifts
ready to breed by the time you need a
new boar. II you make good selections
in the beginning you can probably sell
few boar pigs for enough to cover
the cost Of the first sow and boar. 1t is
just as easy to raise the pure breds as
grades, and if properly handled thcy
are sure to be more profitable.

Every battle fought in Europ:

Every battle fought since the be

sustained with the excitement of the
conflict, that he becomes passionate
with the lust for blood and uncon-

moment, without regard to what the
