Wooden Boy-Dol was very unhappy,
for he knew no way of getting up
where Girl-Doll was hanging and he
was sure she never would come down
to where he sat on the floor of the
shop window.
At night he could hear Girl-Doll
and Boy-Blue talking and he heard
her tell him that all that separated
them was the Jumping Jack that hung
between them.
"Oh. dear" thought Wooden Boy,

So little Boy-Doll sat very sad and

he could only look, but not one did
she lower her proud little wooden head
to look at her true lover.
But one day, when all seemed lost

OF the early American inventions
for the manufacture of nails the only
one which has survived is that pat
ented in 1886 by Ezekial Reed of
Bridgewater, Mass. In 1883 cut nails
were first made of steel, and wire
nails were manufactured for the first
time in the United States about 1851.
twenty-five years later Father Goo
bel, a priest, began their manufacture
in CovingtOn, and the American Wire
and Nail company was established a
year later under his leadership. The
output of cut nails has varied from
100000 to 100000 kegs a year,
while their expectation rose from 1896,
when 1t amounted to 2O.OO0,OO
pounds, to over ten times those figures
In 1914.

In Grasshopper Campaign
County Agricultural Agent D. B. Noble Address Bulletin
To The Businessmen and Community Chairmen.
Urges Cooperation in Hopper Fight

The grasshopper situation is caus
ing uneasiness in some sections o,
the county, more especially in the
central portion. Serious damage o.
threatened damage is reported in but
comparatively few localities at thi:
end of this county, and in the coun-
try a few miles across the river.
The following instructions and in
formation have been sent out by D.
B. Noble, county agricultural agent.
and from the State College at Boze-
man:
To all Banks, Community Chairmen,
ct al.
Re: Grasshopper Control
Situation: The gr~asshopper situa-
ton is becoming very serious in many
sections of the county and some con-
troll methods are necessary at this
time. Senate Bill No. 263 of the last
legislative assembly provides that the
county commissioners are authorized
to appoint an exterminator of insect
pests. That said exterminator take
such steps and use such methods as
necessary to control insect outbreaks
but that all does not exceed liz
mills of taxable valuation of the
county. The commissioners are au-
thorized to make a levy subject to
the amount of warrants drawn
against the insect pest fund not to
exceed the IL mills. If the entire
fund is used for material it will con-
troll insects on about sixty sections of
land so you can see the amount is
very inadequate in Ease of a big out
break.
On the strength of the above state
ments I have been appointed exter-
minator and have started control
methods in some places throughout
the county. In as much as the job
bers wire that they will not accept
county warrants bearing interest at
six per cent on the insect pest fund
it is necessary that money be raised
otherwise and advanced for material
to control the grasshopper situation.
Procedure: % Call a meeting.
~ Select a mar in your community
to take charge. 90 Raise a working
fund for the purchase of material.

n ESPITE the fact that all critics
IL aud even many writer's who are
not disposed to be very critical-have
condemned the use of the word

word is still used in common speech
and in numerous advertisements.
Clothing for ladies and gents is adj

tickets are 81, ladies' so cents.' The
following was overheard recently /:
"Oh, Mary, did you see the man who
picked up my purse?' yes; he
looked like a perfect gent"
Never say gent = say gentleman"
The word pants as an ahbrevia-

deInned by critics but "pantaloons" is
now seldom used, SO the only word
that is left when one wishes to de-

1t is advisable for community x

early as there is a big demand for all
material used in the poison at this
time.
This has been threshed out with
the chairman of the county commits
toner's and a committee of farmers
and business men and it was found
that this was the only possible way
of handling it. If this poison mater

charge cost prices for same, said

money for said fund is not available

the situation get in touch
