Forest Supervisor Peter Wrensted says that the stockmen on the Cassia forest reserve have Just completed hauling in CI tons of salt for the stock grazing on this reserve. This Is the first Bait that has been distributed on any of the reserves under Mrt Wren-sted's charge. The stockmen all pooled together and shipped in the salt.

The forestry service has nothing to do with this move except that the distribution is made under the direction of the supervisor and rangers. The Bait Is distributed along the ridges and has the effect of scattering the cattle over a greater territory than they would graze over without the salt The cattle naturally take to the shade along the streams during the hot months, but they will also go a great distance for salt. They will graze to the ridges in search of salt and will then graze back again to get to the water. In addition to the beneficent effect of the salt on the stock, the exercise they get in going after it is said to be a great thing for the Btock. Pocatello Tribune, Miss Mamie Horn Invited about 30 of her young friends to her home at the Burrington last Tuesday evening, where they were entertained In a most delightful manner with music, games and toothsome refreshments.

A novel and unique feature of the evening as the method of selecting partners for supper. Dainty, little hearts, with the lady's name inscribed in letters sufficiently large to be seen across the room, were arranged on a large heart and hung against the wall on one side of the room. The gentlemen were then Btven a bow and arrow, and, taking their position' near the wall opposite the hearts, were to pierce the heart with the name of the young lady they desired to escort to supper. Much merriment and amusement attended this exciting contest, and It Is said that the reputation of some of the gentlemen as marksmen received a severe setback. "Doc" Horn, who mo ItJUIlU til.

B. Hendricks and family, St. John Skinner, Senator Al Page and Hon. William Burke of American Falls. On Saturday afternoon, just about the time the sun was getting red in the face and preparing to 'drop over the edge of the western horizon, Mr.

Skin ner, Mr. Page and Mr. Burke ap proached the dwelling of Mr. Hen drlcks from the east As they neared the residence they detected a fierce red glow which enveloped the roof of the house. "Drive up, John, shouted Al, "that man's house is afire." "Give them the bud," cried Burke.

"Never let it be said that an Irishman and a Democrat failed to respond to a call for help." Swish went the lash and Sam Hamilton's plump sorrels barely touched the high spots until they were pulled up in front of the residence. A strong smell of sulphur per meated the atmosphere. Jerusalem, muttered Al Page. "Wonder if hell hasn't broke loose here. The flames are there but there is no sign of fire.

Just then Mr. Hendricks came out. rubbing his eyes. "What's the mat ter?" he was asked by all three men In chorus. "Red ants," said Hend ricks.

"See them swarming on the roof. They came down the chimney and we are smoking them out with sulphur tapers." The three musketeers returned to Twin Falls in silence. "It's a mighty good thing we had Mr. Burke with us," declared Al Page. Otherwise the people might think we had been drinking red-eye." However, the story is easily credited as swarms of flying red ants have made it un comfortable for more than one farmer of late.
