THE HIGH SCHOOL
REGISTRATION IS
HEAVY THIS YEAR
Big Increase Causes Plenty
Of Work For Faculty.

Grangeville public schools are clos
ing their third week of the fall term
marked with an ambition on the
parts of students and faculty for a
betterment of themselves and an I'M
looked for increase in attendance In
all classes. So great has the atten-
dance been, that seating capacity IN
the building has been crowded.
High school enrolment was raised
TO 154 with the new enrolment OF
seven students ON Monday. This
number is the high-water mark of all
registration exceeding previous mum
bers by about twenty-five. Tne
Freshman class leads the others III
numbers, there being 80 in this group
Sophomores are close second witt
46. the Juniors have "a, and the Sen
Tor class numbers %. One POSTCARD
uate is attending high school.
In the grades, some readjustmen
was necessary to relieve the crowd
ed condition In the first and second
grades. The strongest pupils In eacf
grade were advanced to the mex
grade In the first four OF the low
er classes. This method allows more
time for individual training on thu
part of the teachers.
The large number of students In TN
Chemistry, General Science and Mod
ern History classes necessitated oil

classes are still very large, but al
vision of these seems an imposslDii

GRANGEVILLE HAS
TWO FIRES IN NIGHT

Grangeville was visited by two
fires in one night, when the AL
bert Fray residence in the north part
of town was burned to the ground
about 10 o'clock in the evening, and
barn, belonging to John Kabot was
destroyed by fire at 2 a. m. on Sun
day morning.
The fire in the Fray residence was
discovered by railroad workmen in
the yards. The building burned at
once, being a wooden structure, and
due to the fact that firemen were
unable to reach the fire with water.
Several small grass fires were start
ed from the blaze and danger from
sparks might have caused trouble.
The Kabot barn was discovered
ablaze and was completely burned
before the arrival of volunteer fire
men, who extinguished and prevented
the spread of the fire.

HERD IS NEAR

suf.I
Spencer And Wood Add To
Their Model Dairy Farm
Many Fine Animals.
Idaho Can Boast Of Best
Guernsey Bull Now In The
United States of America.

The arrival in Grangeyille of the
herd of AZ purebred Guernsey milk
cattle from Riverside, Calf, which
will be used as the foundation for
the building up of the best dairy
herd in the west, is a subject Tor
much comment. The herd is the
property of Craig L. Spencer, OF
Seattle, who with ]. A. Wood, OF
Grangeville, operate the Prairie View
dairy farm on the Wood ranch one
mile south of Grangeville.
The herd, said to be the finest in
the west, was purchased in California
prior to the outbreak of the foot and
mouth disease, and due to the quar-
antine placed on stock, it was not pos
sible to ship to Grangeville until re-
Gently. One calf was born enroute
to Grangeville. The shipment used
three cars and two attendants for the
trip.
The addition of this herd to the
one on the ranch brings the number
of dairy cows to about go matured
animals, and fifteen young cattle
Every one Of the herd has registra
ton and shows the highest breeding
that is attainable. Fourteen Of the
cows brought in recently have whal
is known in dairy terms as an ad
vanced record. This means that
record of production is kept and thu
cow must be an excellent produces
| to hold such a title.
Heading the large herd Is a famou
bull, undefeated in stock shows thru
out the nation. The bull, Mayors
| Cherub," has a list of grand champion
titles from every show and exhibition
in the two year class, and is valued
at a very large amount
A. M. Wilson, who had charge o
the shipment would not make an.
statement as to valuation OF the nero
He said There is no value to o.
| placed on this herd, as 1t is here 10
a purpose to build up into bigge
and better one than ever. We don
want to scare any one out, and ar
going to supply the prairie with rea
dairy stock in the future"
Three large barns, filled with ha
and feed, will help to house the her
thru the winter months. Ten corrals
with shelter sheds front to the cas-
near the barns, and will offer earl
sunlight in the spring months.
The farm also has an excellen
start in the hog industry, a selectio
having been obtained from one OF tn
best established herds in California
The Prairie View farm, one mil
south of Grangeville, is very con
plete and up-to-date in nearly ever

The investment in such a fine her
by Craig Spencer will mean test
