CAUSES WRATH Butter and Eggs Continue High Butter and eggs are two agricul tural sidelines which have edded im portance since the drop in grain and " ck prices. Neither have shown n tich tendency to slump. Eggs are f'? ill bringing farmers considerably xce?s of T0 cents a dozen and lv:tter-fat is holding up fairly well. The farmer who has a .flock of good laying pullets or who is milking a Store Your Own Ice It is possible to arrange for a sup ply of ice on practically every farm. A dam constructed across a 6mall ra vine will hold enoueh water to nrn- vide several tons of good ice in the course of the average winter. A good many farmers have natural ice sources, such as ponds or creeks. Becaure a supply of ice is available or can be made available at little expense, every farmer should plan to store ice. Write the College of Agri culture at Lincoln for literature on harvesting and storing ice and plans' for building an ice house. L. R. SNIPES. County Agr.

For some time past Anton Hasson. the janitor at the government build ing has been engaged in landing many fine specimens of the finny tribe, largely of the yellow cat var iety, and through arrangements with W. J. Streight, the fish have been kept in the small fountain at the residence of Mr. Streight until such time as the gentlemen saw fit to market them, and in this manner quite a neat sum had been realized. The fish industry received a se vere jolt yesterday when Anton de cided to market the fish as a goodly amount of the catfish had accumu lated and it was calculated that at least 525 could be realized from the sale of the fish. The surprise of Messrs Streight and Hasson may be imagined when going to the foun tain it was found that the greater part of the fish had disappeared and someone else had apparently got the market first with the fish. Mr. Hassen estimates that he is out about twenty iron men as the result of the visitation of the rob bers and he would like very much to place his hands on the persona who unearthed the fish cache.
