Ss i How We Handle Batteries When a battery is left with us for winter storage the first thing we do is to clean it of all dirt and corro- sion which has formed from the acid slopping over, then give the box a special paint to preserve the wood. After this it is put onto charge at a very slow rate, if it comes up as it should it is then set away. If it does not take the charge as it should it is put on and discharg- ed for 48 hours at a very slow rate, then charged again. This is repeated until the battery is in No. 1 condition and every battery is given this treatment every 2 weeks, the charge for this service is $1 per month. COTTONWOOD BATTERY AND WELDING SHOP P.

There are men in the world who would not cheat another man—unless they could.

He might have added that some men work it overtime. NEWS PRINT PAPER SOARS SKYWARD Thirteen cents a pound, f. o. b. mill, was asked for print paper in New York during this week. The price was for car load lots, and was made to one of the larg- est purchasers of sheet paper in the country. The mill refused to make a price of anything less than 13 cents.

Driven from the mountains by crusted snow, which the deer must dislike, the animals are flocking to the lower country in large numbers, and are rapidly falling victims to hunters’ shots. Many deer are to be found in the Harpster country, and all along the South Fork of the Clearwater. Occa- sionally they venture on Camas Prairie. On Saturday, a deer was shot at the outskirts of Grangeville. Hunters who have only spent one or two days in the timbered country are returning, each with a deer.
