Effective Gns for Fumigntion.
When the quarters are badly infested
with lice or mites it is best to clean
out all litter and burn it. All paper
lining should then be torn off and
burned, and every corner cleaned
thoroughly. After this the house should
he tightly closed and fumigatcd.
For this purpose chloride of lime and
formaldehyde make one of the most
effective disinfectives. Place a pound
of chloride of lime in n sixteen quart
bucket and pour Il pint of formalde-
hyde oyer it, leaving the house at
once. These ingredients act on each
other at once, making a powerful gas

RECRUITING OFFICER HERE.

Sergeant NJ. Ferrell, recruiting Of
fieer for the regular army, was in this
city Sunday night looking up the mat
ter of securing recruits for the army
which is now handled for the govern
ment through the local post offices.
Sergeant Ferrell was looking over this
section of the country with the view
of obtaining such information as was
possible in. regard to the probable ad-
vantage it would be to the government
to station recruiting officer at Lew
iston to handle this and surrounding
territory. He expects to be back to
Grangeville within the next three or
four weeks and any young man who
desires to join any branch of the army
or navy can make application at the
Grangeville post office in the mean
time. Under the new plan of enlist
ment there are number of advan-
tages not given under the old law and
in many ways army or navy life is
made much more attractive than was
formerly the case.
