prairies, and it is declared that the 
country is losing annually some- 
thing like $25,000,000 on account of 
the destructive characteristics of 
the rodent. These little black dec- 
orations which tourists have found 
everywhere on the horizon of the 
western prairies are found from 
Texas to Montana and from Ne- 
braska to California. 
It is litthke wonder that large cor- 
porations sometimes find it hard to 
pay proper dividends to their stock- 
holders. Take for instance, the Bos- 
ton & Maine: In summer two or 
three men go from station to station 
cutting grass; one man is the “boss” 
and. does nothing but see that the 
work is done right. We noticed in 
Manchester recently a crew of eight 
men laying a small conduit in the 
street for the telephone company; 
three of the men were bossing the 
job. It should have been a good 
piece of work. 
Fifteen small sawmills are cut- 
ting timber from the Powell nation- 
al forest in southern Utah, more 
than 100 miles from the nearest 
railroad. They are run by settlers 
during time that can be spared from 
the crops, and supply local needs 
since there is no opportunity to ship 
timber in or out.

Witt Not OPERATE GARDENS. 
In several previous issues there 
was announced in these columns, pre- 
maturely, that John L. Chapman had 
leased the Spaulding gardens. We 
wish to correct this error. As the 
Messrs. Spaulding have decided not 
to operate the gardens this year, the 
position of superintendent is thereby 
abolished. Mr. Chapman terminated 
his affiliation with the good will of 
the proprietors, who write in his let- 
ter of recommendation that they 
found Mr. Chapman “to be a man- 
aging gardener of integrity, sobriety 
and ability and are glad to recom- 
mend him.”
