MUSSETTER HOME BURNS
TO GROUND FRIDAY

The home of R. T. Mussetter, on
the Sugar Factory addition, was
burned Friday afternoon. No one
was home at the time, Mr.. Mussetter
being in Rigby and Mrs. Mussetter
being in town. The fire was noticed
by w. c. Thompson and his crew
of railroad bridge workers, A. B.
Clark, Leslie Andrews, Will Miles
and Leonard Jolly, and they rushed
to the scene to try to save some
thing.
Leslie Andrews went to a nearby
house to phone the fire department
and found no one home and he had
to go nearly all the way into town
before he could give the alarm. BY
that time the other men had done
all that was possible in getting
things out on account of the terri
rifle heat. When the fire depart
ment got there the house was
wrapped in flames and practically
ruined, but it only took about 20
minutes to put out the flames with
the high pressure hose.
The men saved the contents of one
room and tried to get some from the
other rooms but they were like a
furnace and made it impossible. II
is not known whether any insurance
was carried.

LET TRACTOR DO THE WORK

There are probably a few of the
old pioneers left who may have used
the sickle in harvesting wheat in
the days of long gone by. Quite a
number are living who have used
the cradle and later on saw the adj
vent of the horse-drawn harvesters.
The old dropper and self rake were
wonders in their day, but with the
coming of the self-binder further
progress seemed impossible.
BY the change of teams or by
using an additional horse it has
been possible to cut IL to Is acres
day with a self-binder, and every
body thought that the amount oil
wheat that could be cut in day had
its limit, but not so.
On the Lanwehr-Anderson farm
near Gilboa, Earl Crawfish and Har
rison Knepper cut thirty acres Of
heavy wheat in one day Of 10 hours
The Moline power used was an ole
Fordson tractor. Only 16 gallons o.
kerosene and half gallon Of OF
was used.
Well, who can beat it?-Putnan

of the grandstand and from their
autos and for the hour the horseless
carriage held no interest while peo-
pie thronged about the great bird
to examine all its features. The men
who were putting on the program
were themselves so engrossed in this
part of their own show that they
seemingly forgot all about the races
and all matters Of Workmanship and
remained with the bird, SO int0xi-
Gated were they with this superlative
event.
When the flier announced that he
was ready to make flight over the
valley and take two passengers with
him at dollar minute to have
birds eye view Of the valley and
mountain tops, the machine was
wheeled into a favorable position for
starting, and as 1t glided along the
meadow like water fowl half run
ming and half bying as It rose from
the surface, the horsemen found
themselves involuntarily pursuing It
while band Of $50 wild horses
running loose on the fiat, swung in
behind them and ran rapidly after
it as bunch Of bows follows brass
band, seeking to enjoy its presence
and be as nearly as possible q part
of 1t, till 1t rose to such heights that
they slowed down and stood gazing
in wonder and admiration at this
new visitor exercising a power they
did not possess. And as the big
bird scared and curved and grew
smaller in the crystal blue, they
turned and looked about them just
as people do at funeral when they
have had the final look at the van
ished casket and they realize that a
former companion. is now separated
from them by power beyond their
comprehension and they are baked
in their contemplation of the
physical and the supernatural.
When the airship returned again
to earth, it received only passing at
tention from the horses, and then
they regarded it only as new phase
Of automobile, and passed and re-
passed it as If it were an ordinary
gas wagon.
The stampede lasted three days
and was staged by local men repre-
sented by Walter Hogan, president
and w. ]. Chester, secretary. Walter
Hogan of the Bar-W ranch at
Meadow creek was manager of the
arena and was arrayed in all the
splendor Of the cavalier. The judges
were Jack Gooch, Adrian Empey and
William Lasley.

The stampede opened on Thurs
day, but the reunion began with the
arrival of people a day or two be-
fore, and Indians and whites camped
in the woodsy areas of great
mound rising slightly above the
level of the lake. Horses were
turned out to Craze, cattle grazed on
the great expanse of meadows, and
the rangolds rode out at intervals to
bring in such animals as were
wanted. The bright colors in the
regalia of the Indians and cowboys,
the easy, graceful canter of their
horses running, unshod on the soft,
native meadows, the sharp, quick
dashes of horsemen riding after
animals that sought to dart away
from the bunch and escape the pro-
spective duty or sacrifice at the
camp, the visiting parties that came
and went by twos and by tours, their
familiarity in riding into camp and
letting their horses stand trustingly
beside beds and camp fixtures with
assurance that no horse would tread
on anything, the easy, trustful way
of tying horse by dropping the
reins over his head and leaving him
there to live up to his training until
the rider returned, all these things
and scores of others familiar to 4
roundup, were enacted in real life
to the infinite enjoyment of the par
Elephants and spectators.
On Thursday afternoon at the
opening Of the stampede, with the
grandstand decked with the green
boughs Of the quaking aspens and
long lines of automobiles extending
like wings on each side Of the main
body of visitors, with the chief
speaker standing on an auto in front
of the grandstand and a body of
white and Indian horsemen on the
greensward at the rear of the

brilliant colored shirts and necker-

been called roundup, reunion,

the benfeit of the Athletic associa-

ton.
As the game scheduled with st.
Johnsbury for Friday evening fail
ed to materialize, local game
was planned on the spur of the mo-
ment, and proved to be one of the
best games of the winter. The two
teams were known as the "All
Stars" and Some Stars. The All
Stars were captained by Carl Carl
sen, and included Carlson, Frank
Bull, Armand Cusson, from U. V.
NJ, Robert Pierce, and Guyer.
Francis Cushing was captain Of
the Some Stars, with Cushing,
Wetherbee, John Ames, Tom Nc
Condach and James Austin. If
there was a little more fun than
science in some parts of the game,
it pleased the audience just the
same, and the contest ragged fast
and furious. Hazard acted as refe-
rec, and took out a few extra
thousands of insurance Just before
the game. The players not being
tagged sometimes forgot whether
they were all stars or some stars,
but went right on piling up the
score until it stood II to % in ia
vor of the "All Stars"
After the game, LaChance's or
chesttra played for a dance, which
was well attended, and enjoyed by
good crowd. There was a fair
sized audience during the evening.
The proceeds go to the Athletic
association.
