Rrltons Have New telephone.

A new telephone device already in
actual use in England is the larynga-
phone. a tranSmitter in which disk
is placed against the throat of the
speaker and the sound is transmitted
by the vibration of the vocal chords,
says London dispatch to the New
York Tribune. 1t is suitable for use
in noisy factories and worliroOms
where the ordinary telephone mouth
piece transmitter would pick up the
other sounds in the room and so pre-
vent conversation.
In appearance the laryngaphone re-
semhles the ordinary telephone except
that there is n smooth rounded rub
Der disk instead of a mouthpiece. The
receiver is the same and the messages
are received in the ordinary speaking
voice.

Land for Canadian Soldiers.

The forest reserves held by the Ca
madam federal government and all sit
uated in the West, comprise an area
of approximately 275OOOOO acres, and
consist of tracts of land unsuitable for
agriculture which have been set apart
permanently for forest production. At
the request of the soldier settlement
board areas tOtalling about 100000
acres were withdrawn from the re-
serves in order to be made available
for soldier settlement. For the most
part these areas consist of small tracts
of a few hundred acres, withdrawn
from number of different rr,erves.
Only in the cases of the Riding noun
tain and POrcupine reserves were the
areas larger, about 100000 acres be-
ing withdrawn from the former and
about 100000 acres from the latter.

Purchased Fine Hogs

Last Saturday A. N. Rognstad
went to Pullman to attend the Whit
man County Duroc Jersey Breeders
Consignment sale, with the idea of
buying some good stock. He took
County Agent Fletcher with him to
strengthen his own judgment in the
selection. The trip resulted in the
purchase of two fine sows, one of
them a gilt 10a months old weigh
ing 800 pounds. She topped the
sale. Thirty-one OF her half sisters
sold for an average of $3.50 each in
s. Dakota last summer. The other
SOW weighs something over 500
pounds and her family tree includes
some of the best of the hog family.
Mr.. Rognstad has been attending
stock shows in Lewiston and Spok-
ane for several years with the idea
in mind of becoming familiar with
the good points Of the Duroc Jersey
breed and with the intention of
starting herd of the very best stock
obtainable HE believes now that
he has the foundation OF herd that
will be second to none IN the
country. While the initial invest
ment in the two hogs was large
one, MIR. Rognstad believes there
will be a big demand for the better
grade of stock IN the Potlatch
country and that he will have nc
trouble in disposing of his surplus
stock next summer and tall.
