Tuesday, February %, at 900 a. M,
the first rabbit drive for Washburn
and vicinity will start. All hunters
are asked to meet at the flag pole at
this time (rearing to go). The follow
ing men will furnish teams and sleds:
Fred Macomber, R. E. Klein, Geo. Kug-
fler;,' Emanuel Meyer, Vic. Anderson,
Ed. Burlington, A. E. Schoenwether,
weapons Of the day will be shot guns,
no rifles allowed. If you haven't a
shot gun bring club. Qf you think
you're fast and some runner you won't
need either). Everyone will bring his

The first drive will be made from
the Christ Nelson farm up the Macom-
ber coulee and vicinity. Arrangements

Every able bodied man in Washburn

Things That Won't Happen
Walter Williams invited the men en-
gagged in the hunt to a free lunch, fol-
lowing the drive as did the Whitlock
Cafe, but this was declined as the
hunters would be too tired to eat
(Also the shock would be too great).
Jake Schweizer offered to donate six
hams to- be used for sandwiches, but
the hunters did not want to impose on
Jake's good nature. Both garages Of
fered to- haul all the men out in cars
free OF charge. Thos. Thompson Hard
ware Co. and Holtan Mere. co. offered
to furnish; ammunition free-see them
about shells. sg .&2

farmers delay testing their seeds until

that many farmers get their reports

NEW TREATMENT FOR SMUT

NEW TREATMENT FOR SMUT
A new treatment for smut has been
discovered which seems to be quite
promising. To date it has been tested
by experiment stations but has not
been tried out under farm conditions.
The plan is, therefore, to try It out on
few farms this year under actual
field conditions and If 1t proves sue
cessful it will be a time saver as it
can be mixed with the grain at the
time Of tanning or whenever the farn,-
er has the most time. AsSit is q dry
treatment it does away with the trot.-
