the jack rabbits had caused him con
siderable trouble this season and re
ports that the pests have become qtite
numerous in his section. H came
here from Nevada and says the rabbit
is not new to him. He states that a
very effective war la waged against the
varmints in that state by trapping them
in the Winter, and suya that he will
teBt it here. A numb;r of moveable
pena about 20 by 40 feet are built and
set about in the brush, with alfitlia hay
or aome other enticing feed placed In
the pena. Entrance to the pens is so
constructed that the raDbits can go in
throuuh V shaped wire lingers, the
spring of which automatically closes
them to prevent egress. Mr. Thompson
says numerous rabbits' will enter each
of thtt pens during a night, and thus
, entrap themselves. The principal of
his aeheme seems entirely plausible and
no d ubt if it waa practiced by several
ranchera in the rabbit seotionsit would

Athletic Club Needed
At the chine of the Farmers' Meet
ing last Satuday idght at Paisley, the
Atbeletiu Clut gave an entertainment
which consisted of club, hammer and
wing, boxing, wrestling and other
feats. It was good from start to finish.
The boxing ty the Lovelsnd boy C
years old, brought cheer after cheer
from tho people. The wrestling of
Cilmord an J Luveland showed great
skill. Nothing better to solve the prob
lem, "What shall we do for our buyaf"
baa to organize Athletic Clubs.
The many advantagea offered by
the Lakeview High School to the
young ladles and young men of the en
tire County are becoming more mani
fest daily. In addition to the course in
Domestic Science a cooking: clasa for
your.g men haa been organized, and at
ready the limit has teen reached in
both instances. It has been found ne
crary to limit the entrance in both
couraes to students in certain trader,
owing to the large number of students
that desired to take the courses. In
the Domestic Course about 40 young
ladies are learning the secrets of how
to win the rexpect of the opposite sex,
as it Is generally understood that
man s stomach ia the neartat way to

bere to receive them and the tender,
who accompanied the shipment, said
they would not live if not liberated at
once, they were all deposited in
streams tiibutary to this valley. It ia
said that they came through in first
