Ferris Sold Farm

H. E. Ferris of Cedar Creek
Ridge sold his farm consisting OF
24O acres, to j. H. Hunt OF Bear
Ridge. The place is one OF the best
improved farms on the ridge. Mr.
Ferris bought the improved 80 acre
part of the farm from Emery jerks
several years ago. 1t has a large
house, and barn with one of the best
silos in the country. There are also
other good out-buildings. The con-
sideration was S11, 900. This is con-
sidered a very good price for the
land as the 160 acres of pasture
land is mostly in the canyon, leav-
ing but little more than 80 acres OF
tlllable land. G. F. Walker made
the deal.
Mr.. Hunt will get possession by
the first of December, as MIR. Ferris
expects to move to his brother S
farm near Palouse very soon.

Hunters Return

DR.. Moser, Sheriff Woody and his
brother, Lester, returned last Fri
day morning from their hunt in the
Selway country above Kooskia.
They shot two elk, two deer and two
bear but before their return home
lost four of their horess. They
left Kendrick October Is. DR..
Moser and Mr.. Woody taking the
train from here to Kooskia where
they met Lester Woody, who had
taken the pack horses across
country. They went as far back as
Camp 63, which is at an elevation
of 7100 feet, but as the snow was
deep there they went down into
the river basin, where they killed
their game.
The pack horses were turned out
to pasture on beLch high up from
the river. The snow was soft and
"balled up" on their feet so that
when they attempted to come down
to the river, three of them lost
their footing and fell over cliff.
The third horse was lost on the trip
home. The pack saddle turned at a
narrow place in the trail. and the
horse started to buck. Losing its
footing it fell over the edge of the
canyon and was killed on the rocks
below.
The hunters were forced to leave
"a greater part of their meat with
Indians who were camped along the
liver, as they had but four horses
left with which to bring out theil
camp outfit. The Indians said they
had never seen the snow as deep ir
that country so early in the season
A sixty mile tramp to the rail
road was made by the hunting party
on the way home.

Will Rotate Their Hogs

In Nez Perce county, the farm
bureau is working out system of
rotation for feeding hogs in the
orchards, with the use of sod legume
crops. The scheme of transferring
the hogs from one field to another
would take into account the supply
of water for the hogs, self-feeders,
etc. The hogs would eat the. e.wormy
apples, thus doing great service
against the coddllng moth, but the
temporary fences would interfere
more or less with irrigating, spray
ing, etc. This plan, it is pointed
out, would be of much value in
maintaining soil fertility, as we'll
as providing meat for the farmers
use, and hogs to sell.

Village Board Met

At meeting of the City Fathers
in the town hall last Tuesday even
ing a number of important matters
were disposed of. The board de-
cided to postpone the building Of
cement walks IN the lower end
of town, until May l. At this time
it is expected that the property
owners will get together and have
the walks we'll under course of con-
struction. The requirements are
for five-foot cement walk and the
walks to be put in on an establish
ed grade. This will be the greatest
boost to property values in the low
er end of town of anything that
could be done in the way of i'm
provement.
A. Wilmot, being nonresident
of Kendrick, the board declared his
place vacant and appointed A. V.
Dunkle to take his place.
The Fire and building committee
was authorized to secure a hose cart
to be used on the hill. The hose
house is already built near the ole
school house and it was thought
best to keep hose cart there sc
that the residences on the hill
would have more adequate fire pro
lection. As soon as the cart is ready
a new hose will be purchased by thu
board.
The committee is also investigat
ing the matter of putting a fir
hydrant at the corner of the E. P
Atchison property so that it will b.
possible to give fire protection t.
the residences on that section of tn
hill.
There being nothing further t.
bring up the meeting adjourned.
