T IS not always necessary to so to the country to have "country" eggs,
I butter and vegetables. In the very heart of the West Farnain
I neighborhood of beautiful homes, Is almost a miniature farm, but so
screened by well kept lawns and trees and hedges that even tho near
est neighbors do not realize that thero Is a vegetable garden back of this;
also a chicken yard and a pasture for the family cow.
This home, with nil of these rural luxuries, Is owned by Mrs. Charles
V Manderson and occupies the greater part of the block on Thirty-eighth
street, between Dewey aveituo and Jackson street, between the palatial
home of Senator J. II. Millard on one aide and Kred Hamilton's new home
on the other. Across the street are the beautiful homes of K. K. Bruce,
Mrs. Ben Gallagher and 1 P. Klrkendall.
Desldes this useful garden, thero Is a most attractive sunken garden by panel post. They had a conference
designed by the late General Manderson,' and In this sunken garden are I with Pnstmaatfr John C. Wharton om
many rare flowers. lu ",n "
Last week Mrs. Manderson entertained at an Informal dinner for a
number of relatives, and everything served was from this miniature farm.
All of the vegetables were from her own garden: tho chickens were city
bred, having bocn raised on the Mandorson lot. Bossy furnlshod tho
cream and butter, and even the preserves, Jellies nnd pickles were from
tho fruit and vegetables, raised thore. Somo of the vegetables served were
beans, potatoes, lottuce, tomatoes, peas, onions, and shortly there will he
sweet corn. The flowers throughout the rooms were from the garden.
Besides managing her home and gardens, Mtb. Mnnderson has the
honor of being tho vice regent for Nebraska for the Mount Vernon Ladles'
association, one of the oldest organizations of this kind, and attended the
annual national moetlng of this society In Washington, D. C, this year.

the Water Board
Has Photo Taken
to Prove Truth of
Unique Fish Story
Dr c 8. Shepard of thl. city. who.
with his family, Is summering at Ile
Hoyal, when at home is not regarded as
much of a fisherman. Now, however, In
writing to somo of his friends hre, he Is
reciting tome fish stories that put him
at the head of the Ike Walton class.
Last week the doctor had occasion to
ccme down Into the Eagle rUer country
to look at some land that was for sale
and on which he had made an offer. To
while away tho tlma while waiting for
the owner of the land to appear, tho
doctor secured a fishing outfit nnd went
to work
It was slow work until he came to a
bridge spanning tha stream. To the doc
tor this looked good for loafing. If not
for fishing, so he took position on one
of the abuttments. He made several casts
without results. The next cast, however,
brought the results.
As the doctor was In the act of reeling
his line In, preparatory to making an
tther cast, a muskellungc struck at tho
lure nnd missed. The fish was going
with great force and when It missed the
bait, Its momentum was sufficient to
I'arry it o .t of the water and ODto the
floor of the bridge, three feet above, i
Throwing his fishing tackle asdde. the '
doctor made for the fifth and held It down
until assistance arrived, and It was
gaffed. The fish weighed thirty pounds
and was said to have been the largest
muskellungc ever caught In Eagle river
at this point.
To prove his fishing experience. Dr.
Shepard had photographs mado of bis
catch and Is sending them back home to
tils friends.
