Another Big Farm Deal.

Senator c.. w. Booth on last
Saturday sold his 240-acre farm,
adjoining Nezperce ON the north
west, to Samuel Moreland, of the
Saskatchewan, Cam, country, for
$4,000, or at the rate Of about
$40 per acre, since the crop goes
with the place. The deal was en-
gineered by Curtis j. Miller.
This is a new top price for prai-
RE land; however the farm is a
fine one and well improved and
its neamess to town gives it an
increased valuation. 1t includes
Mr.. Booths original homestead,
and he let it go reluctantly. The
many friends of this highly es-
teemed family are glad to know,
however, that they will continue
to reside among us, it being Mr..
Booths intention to erect fine
home in Nezperce at an early date.
Mr.. Moreland departed Sunday
for his home to prepare to bring
his family and effects on to this
place, and they will be welcomed
by the community. He is a
brother of j. w. Moreland, one
of our prosperous and esteemed
farmer citizens of south Of town.

The First June Bride.

Miss Kathryn Kachelmier Ell
joys the distinction of being Tx
first June bride of this section
for the current year.
The wedding. in which she par
ticipated as one Of the principals
and George j. Schlader as the
other, took place at Z 80 o'clock
on the morning Of the 3rd instant
atlthe Catholic church in this city
and Rev. Father A. w. Rompe,
priest of the local parish, presid-
ed at the service which sealed the
happy romance Of these two
young lives.
Against background of beau
tiful floral decorations, the bride
looked unusually pretty in a
gown of white silk, draped with
a flowing veil to match, and the
large bouquet of roses she carried
added beauty to the picture. The
groom wore a suit Of convention
al black.
1t was an ideal June day, and
many gathered to witness the
event. AT the conclusion Of the
ceremony at the church, the brid-
al pair and invited guests depart
ed by automobiles for the N. B.
Schlader home near Russell, and
there the day was spent in happy
celebration of this union of two
of the prairie's best known fami-
lies. AT noon a wedding dinner,
such as only Nezperce prairie can
boast, was spread. and so heartily
enjoyed by most of the gathering
that eating must have been the
least of their concern for the next
few days.
Mrs. Schlader. the bride, is a
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Aiois j.
Kachelmierl highly esteemed
ranchers folk Of the Pardee sec
tion, and is one of the fairest Of
the prairie's manly fair daugh-
ters.
The groom is the sturdy son of
Commissioner and Mrs. |
Nicholas B. Schalder, pioneer and
highly respected citizens of the
Russell neighborhood. and he and
his bride will have charge of the
Schlader farm during the present
season, and will later go to Wyom-
ing to prove up on a homestead
he has there.
They have the very best wishes |
of many friends for a long and
happy married life.

Joe johnson, who recently re-
turned to his home in Kamiah
from overseas service in Co. B,
308th Infantry. 77th Division, was
in Nezperce this week shaking
hands with the many old friends
who are glad to greet this young
hero. Joe was in the famous
"Lost Battalion" in the Argonne
and speaks of his wonderful ex-
plot with the same reticence that
is marked in all Of the boys who
faced the Hun in battle. When
asked about his part in the great
exploit, he replied that he guessed
he did about what any of the rest
would have done. After the six
days siege the rescue party found
only 80 able-bodied men left in
his company, and he was one OF
them. Though men dropped like
leaves all around him he never re-
ceived a scratch.

The Grasshopper Pest.

II has been estimated that this
nrairie was sufficiently infested
With the seed Of the grasshoppeS
tribe at the opening of the pres
ont season to have been made
barren of all vegetation had this
seed been unmolested. A very
serious situation, indeed. But,
through the coordinated work of
the County Farm Agent and the
energetic farmers, there is now
GOOD reason to believe the trouble
will be largely overcome.
George F. Reinhardt, one Of the
successful and well known farm
ers of this community, was in
town this morning and reported
fine success from the poison he
recently distributed about his
place. claiming that it had exter-
minated millions Of the young
hoppers. and certainly prevented
large destruction of his crop.
It seems that there is a tend
ency on the part OF some, who Use
the poison given out under Coun-
tv Agent Wade's instructions, to
become impatient for results, and
they prepare and spread second
mixture before the first has had
time to get results. This entails
needless expense. Mr.. Wade in
forms us that the formula he is
using has been thoroughly test
ed and proven, and if the prepara-
ton is handled according to di-
rections will exterminate the pest. |
The Nezperce merchants are
gladly cooperating with the farm
ars in every way in fighting the
1oppers, and are furnishing all in
gredients for the poison at actual
cost. We understand that one Of
)ur local druggists has already
dispensed 700 pounds Of arsenic
o those making the exterminat-
ng mixture.

Mrs. Moreland Hurt in Auto Ac
cident.

j. w. Moreland and family
were enroute to Lewiston last Sat
urday, when their auto turned
over, in an attempt of the driver
to avoid rough spot on the Win
chester grade. The occupants
were thrown out and Mrs. More
land was severely bruised on the
right side Of her breast, sustain
ing the near-fracture OF several
ribs. The others were not lnJur-
ed beyond slight bruises and
scratches and the shock of the
mishap. The top of the car was
demolished.
A report this morning is to the
effect that the injuries sustained
by Mrs. Moreland are not as ser
ious as first thought to be, and
she is making satisfactory recov-

Adams York.

The marriage Of Mrs. Serena
Adams, of Ilo, and Rev. Jacob r
York. Of Asotin, was solemnized
at the home Of Glen Powers, five
miles south Of this city, at high
noon, on May 28th, by Rev. AL
fred Segsworth. Of Charleston.
Following the ceremony, the as
semblage, which included some
35 guests, repaired to the dining
room and there discoursed a wed
ding repast of rare quality and
generous quantity. Later the
bridal pair departed for their
home in Asotin.
The bride was formerly a resi-
dent of this community, and is
well and favorably known to most
of our people. After her hus.
bands death she went to Port
land and resided there with her
mother for some time and later
returned to this county and en-
gagged in school teaching at Forest
and in the vicinity Of Ilo.
Rev. York is quite well knoan
in the upper Clearwater section
and the Grangeville country,
where he has been engaged in the
ministry Of the Baptist church for
many years.

Nezperce Team in Second Place.

The very interesting and hotly
contested exhibition at the Nez-
perez ball park last Sunday after
noon firmly convinced most of
the fans that the team that leads
the local horsehide tossers on July
9th will cop the bunting in the
Prairie League. With Moser, the
leading regular hitter, out of the
game with a twisted ankle, things
looked dubious but Stellmon was
shifted to first and McCready--
just back from overseas placed
on third. and both filled the bill.
Thomas, who fell down in his first
attempt a few weeks ago, was
put in the out-f field and redeem
ed the confidence of his support
ers by getting safe hit in every
appearance at the plate, scoring
one run and driving in all the
others. Eastman was sent in dur
ing the eighth rounn-his first
appearance of the year-and scor-
ed a run. Some of the team did
not play as well as usual, but
everyone has an off day; how
ever, Manager Kettman has two
hurlers in midseason form, and,
altogether, a very tidy aggrega-
ton.
Nezperce almost broke the ice
in the first on hits by Schildnicht
and Stellmon and Grangeville
came back in the second and did
score a run. Nezperce duplicated
in the same inning, scoring one on
hits by Bettis and Thomas.
Grangeville scored one in the
fourth when Kabat ran into a bat
ted ball and was allowed to go
to first, went to second on an err
ror and Ingram singled. The
locals tied it in the fifth ON sing
les by Thomas and Harbke and
a double by Stellmon-who al
ways gets one hit each game and
generally two. In the sixth Hol-
len was hit by the Grangeville
hurler and Thomas scored him
with a double. Norbert Medved
started the eighth with a single,
McCready popped out, Hollen
singled, Eastman hit to Hartnett
who fumbled filling the bases,
then Thomas raped safe one to
the outfield scoring all three rum
ners but he was called out OF
second. Grangeville made her
total three in the ninth, ssMhea. j.
Eimers got on by an error, adj
vanced on Ingram s third single
and scored on another error Hol-
len held the visitors to one bingle
in the last four rounds.
The tabulated record follows:
