At this season of1 the year the ground squirrel, or, as ;it is more commonly called, the digger, is an unmitigated nuisance. From now on until winter sets In he will be busy at work either digging up yung corn and potatoes or barking young trees, and as soon as fruit begins to have" any size he may'be found in the trees hunting and spoiling the finest specimens. Several plans have been tried to exterminate them, with varying results. The Horticul tural society several years ago offered a bounty of 2 cents per head,-which ma terially thinned them out for awhile. There has been talk of "chipping in" and hiring a man with poison to go all over the valley feeding them. Another plan tried" was for a large number of men whose lands are contiguous to have one man mix up a large lot of poison and distribute among the others who agree to make thorough work of it on their own premises. A plan similar to this is now being started and is to include all who will join.; The more the .better. Now is the time the work should be done, as this is the breeding season, and one killed now is as good as half a dozen a few weeks hence. The poison used with best results is wheat and strych- i nine in the proportion of one bottle of strychhine to a quart of wheat.' Less will sometimes answer, but as either the strength of the poison or the di-' gestive apparatus of the digger varies, it is best to make sure of it and have them "get a plenty whils they are get-. ting." .Dissolve the poison in a cupi.. of warm water and then add enough flour to make a thin batter. Pour this I over the wheat and stir it thoroughly. j As soon as it is dry put a few kernels i at their holes or runways. -The following persons are already agreed on the plan and are making a united effort to get rid of them this summer. Others are requested to join by following out the suggestions above: A. L. Disbrow, J. H. McCoy, H. C. Bateham, (!. P. Heald, H. C Coe, H.F. Davidson, T. L. Clark, J. S. Tendick, J. T. Nealeigh and others. "A Yard of Pansies."

Nothing seems to dishearten him; obstacles laid in his way, that would have wrecked any ordinary man forever, he turns to an advertisement and comes out of it brighter than ever. His instruments, as is well known, are very popular and are to be. found in all parts of the world. We are informed that during the next ten years he in tends to sell 200,000 more of his make; that means a business of $20,000,000, if we average them at $100 each. It is already the largest business of the kind in existence. Send to Daniel F.Beatty, Washington, New Jersey, for cata logue. Hot coffee and lunch at the bakery.
