SATURDAY CLUB HAS GOOD MEETING MRS. A. C. NORTH READS VALUABLE PAPER ON IRRIGATION ---SUBJECT OF BIRD LORE CONSIDERED BY ENTIRE CLUB The Saturday Club met Saturday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Winings. The feature of the afternoon was a paper on Irrigation by Mrs. A. C. North. We often think of irrigation as a modern invention, but it was used in Mesapo tamia Babylon and Egypt 6000 years ago. By this means arid regions were converted into the graneries of the world. Even New Mexico in our own country, has an irrigation ditch of 3000 years service. The Spanish settlers along the Rio Grande were irrigating their gardens seventy years before the settlement of Jamestown. Irrigation by English speaking people is only about 50 years old. We find it first in Utah, where a little band of Mormon emigrants were compelled to adopt it to avoid starvation. Twenty years later it came to be an important factor in the developement of California and Colorado. In many of our arid states in the West, the value of the crops grown by irrigation, exceeds the out-put of the mines or factories. The conquest of our thousands of arid acres is one of the problems of the future. Our latest triumph is the Roosevelt Dam in Arizona, a structure so remarkable as to attract the eyes of the engineers of the world. It is 280 ft. high and 1080 ft. long location in a here-to-fore inaccessible canyon. In order to build it, it was necessary to contruct a road across 20 miles of desert, and over 42 miles of rock requiring blasting; to install a railway, a telephone system 100 miles long an enormous cement factory, to cultivate two farms to supply provisions to the workers, and to employ 600 Indians for several years. The government has expended nine million dollars on this work. It has transformed the Salt River Valley into a garden. Its settlers are from nearly every state in the Union and are nearly all American born. The second topic of the day was Isaac Brown and Bird lore. All present took part and many interesting

points were brought out such as the fact that among birds the female chooses her mate, making every year a "leap-year." Col. Brown says that the Blue Martins will destroy the potato bug the ball weavel and keep the mosquito in check and should be protected in regions bothered by those pests. If the birds which migrate could
be so arranged they would, 160 abreast, make a gorgeous, streamer around the world. In the U. S. there are 900 species which migrate. The cause of their migration is a great mystery to science. Given Granite Shower. Miss Edna Burden gave a granite shower at her home east of Inwood Friday afternoon, in honor of Mrs. Eunice Gibons Yohn. The affair was a complete surprise. Mrs. Yohn was invited out to spend the afternoon and upon her arrival found a house full of ladies. The guests were entertained by music by Mrs. Yohn and Mrs. Lemler. A fine lunch was served. Mrs. Yohn was the recipient of many useful articles and Miss Burden proved herself an ideal hostess. Mrs. Yohn will depart soon for her new home in Chicago and will be missed by her many friends here. Ranie Taken to Asylum Eldon Ranie, who has been in the county jail for two months and a day, was taken to Longcliff Monday. He was accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Mat Bottorff, exSheriff Gene Marshall and W. F. Ormond. Rainie created no disturbance to the disappointment of the large crowd which gathered to see some excitement.

SOWING CANADA PEAS
Myron Chase of Polk Township is Putting in a Crop To Take the Place of Clover. The dryness of last fall and winter has killed nearly all of the clover in this section, said Myron Chase, of Polk township and it is necessary for the farmers to have some crop to take its place. This year l am going to sow ten acres of Canada peas. This is an early crop and is sown at the same time as oats. It is something like garden peas---a juicy, tender food and is especially adapted for feeding milck cows. Sewing Club Spend Day in Country. It is always a Gala Day in the history of the Sewing Club when its members are invited to spend the day at the home of Vera Voreis, five miles southwest of the city. It was no exception last Saturday, when Miss Voreis entertained in honor of Miss Lois Humrichouser. The club left Plymouth at ninethirty, and after passing many untamiliar scenes, irrespective of the fact that this was the fourth trip to the same plaee, they "finally" landed at the destination, but the compass showed they were traveling toward northwest when they arrived. The prolonged ride in the open air had a tendency to strength the already healthy appetite and ample justice was done to the dinner served at 1 o'clock. Master Capid interrupted the games and music of the afernoon by delivering an express package to Miss Humrichouser. The contents revealed many useful articles for the kichen with quaint little rhymes, portraying the originality of the members of the club. The ride home was somewhat shorter than the ride of the morning and they arrived in Plymouth about six o'clock. Plans were made for a walking trip and a breakfast two miles in the country for next Wednesday if the weather permits. Meeting of Graded Union. The regular meeting of the Plymouth Graded Union will be held at the Methodist Church, Wednesday afternoon, March 29, at 3 o'clock. An unusually practical program has been planned for this meeting and all Sunday School teachers, whether using the graded lessons or not, may receive benefit by attending. A special study of story-telling is being made, and the program will in elude the following: A story for beginners dramatized; a story for primary pupils on the blackboard; a story for juniors, illustrated with the sand-table; a discussion of Chapter II of "Stories and Story-telling."(Prof. St. John). Teachers are invited to bring questions for discussion in the conferences. Fire on Nursery Street. The house on Nursery street owned by Jas. Mattchet of Bourbon and occupied by Elmer Taylor of this city caught fire today at one thirty and was about half destroyed, the top being entirely burned out. Nearly all of the furniture was saved by the neighbors before the fire department arrived on the scene. The fire started from a defective chimney. No Need To Stop Work.

SOME GOOD THINGS TO .EAT
Novel Combination , of Frh Mushrooms With Sausages Delicious , Egg Dish. "Hare you ever tried broiled sausages with mushrooms?" asks a correspondent of the Epicure. "As a matter of fact the sausages are not broiled at all, but the smallest of breakfast sausages are laid In a sizzling hot frying pan and cooked brown on one side, then turned and taken out to drain on paper when sufficiently cooked. "Some fresh mushrooms that have been peeled are then set cooking !n the sausage fat, and are served with the sausages, on slices of toast which have been buttered. For a change add a few slices of bacon to the dish of sausages before cooking the mushrooms. " i "A certain egg dish that was Invented in a Latin quarter studio In Paris1 is delicious. Butter somo little earthen dishes such as are used for shirred eggs and break one or two eggs into each. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, grate on a liberal quantity of dry Gruyere cheese, add some bits of butter, pour over cream .to cover and bake, in a hot oven until the eggs are set. 'Tor another dish: Put a sweet Mexican pepper on Pimento morrones the tinned variety In the bottom of a custard cup or earthen egg cup, break in a fresh egg, add salt, pepper and butter, and bake until the egg is sufficiently cooked. Serve with fingers of crisp buttered toast" COULD TELL HIS LUCKY DAYS Man Who Creates Sensation at Monte Carlo Talks of His Good Fortune. "Will Darnborough." said & Bloomington man, "Is the sensation of the Riviera. He has been winning at Monte Carlo at the rate of thirty or forty thousand a day. "Will told mt last month, at the Cercla de la Mediterranee in Nice, that he attributed his good fortune to the fact that he could always tell his lucky days. "He said with a laugh that the first turn of the wheel told him everything. In its startling revelations the wheel, he said, suggested the young earl who fell in love with the pretty Monte Carol chambermaid. "The yonug earl found a Monte Carlo chambermaid so irresistible that he proposed to her and was, of course, accepted. So one night he took her motoring, and in the course of the ride he produced a bottla of champagne. " Til open it,' said the pretty chambermaid. 'Oh, let me open It.' "And while the car sped along the Cbrniche in the moonlight she unfastened the foil and wire and twisted out the huge cork so deftly that not a drop of the champagne escaped. "But the young earl pushed rudely from him the pretty, smiling chambermaid. "'You have deceived me,' he muttered, ho&rsely, I am not your first love " Chrysanthemum Marvels. The great autumn shows of chrysanthemums at Dangozaka, near Tokio, offer many wonders to their crowds of visitors. You will see the flowers in long ranks, each plant a facsimile of the next beside It, with exactly the same number of blooms on each. And not merely that; the top bloom will be fully opened, and so make one of a perfectly level line of fully opened blooms; the next will be nearly opened and again one of a similar row; the flowers of the third row are open to a less degree; and so they docrease to the feet of the plants, where a row of close green buds extends so, that the whole long rank presents constantly repeated scale of all the beauties of the opening flower from bud to fullest bloom. And the marvel does not stop even here, for not only the blossoms but the leaves are matched !n number and situation. In other places instead of straight lines the plants are disposed fan fashion or in the shape of an umbrella. More Widows Than Widowers. Th proportion of remarriages shows an almost continuous decrease, gays the registrar-general In his report on the births, deaths and marriages in England and Wales during 1909. The number of widows, he states, is always much greater than that of widowers, because in the first place men marry later in life than women; secondly, because the duration of malevllfe is shorter than that of female life, and thirdly, because the proportion of widow's who remarry is much lower than the proportion of widowers who remarry. . Marriages of persons described as divorced have steadily increased and in the year 1900 were the highest on record. , Sings' Hymnt to Her Chickens. A, woman Hying near here never ays "Chicky, chiclry, chick" when she wishes to feed her chickens. When she .goes to the hennery with feed she sings a" church hymn, such as "Rock of Ages" or ."Holy Bihle. Book Dirine; Precious Treasure, Thou Art Mine!" and the '"biddies" make a be line rush toward her from all parts of the yard. j The chickens recognize her voice, 'lad will not rush to any other person with tho same speed, even lfthe lame, hymns are sung. -Clay City correspondence Indianapolis News.
