Local officers were this morning
notified that a burglar had robbed
the house of Cleve Myers in Athena

that some honest person had prob
ably been turned into a thief by Jack
Frost. The officers have but little
clew to the cluprlt but naturally de
duce the fact that he was a single
man and that he probably lives in a
cheap boarding house where a sheet
and a blanket are all that protects
the sleeping body from the chilly
ozone. A

Rabbits Hard to Poison Ray T.
Jackson, expert with the department
of agriculture, who has come to this
county for the purpose of poisoning
rabbits is now at work In the Echo
country but has not had much suc
cess thus far. Mr. Jackson was out
on Butter creek yesterday but found
that with so much green feed for
rabbits to eat they are slow to nib
ble on his poisoned grain. Mr. Jack
son Is in Echo today and Is expecting
to go out into the Cold Springs coun
try within a few days. In the pub
lished report of the formula he ad
vises the amount of saccharine in the
formula was given wrong. Instead
of one-fourth pint of saccharine the
formula calls for one fourth tea
spoonful. Reservoir Hels Adjacent Land
That the presence of the Cold Springs
reservoir is proving of benefit to
wheat farmers some miles away front
the big pond Is declared by farmers.
They say It means more moisture. One
farmer declares that on late spring
mornings he can go through his

great he will get his feet wet. Be
fore the 'government project was built
the fields would be very dry.
