‘PRINCE OF HOSTS'
HHRNESSES FILLS TO
CITHER FOX FEED
Interesting is the manner in
which nature’s forces are put to
service to aid man as is the
method L. W. Bishop, “Prince of
Hosts,” at the famous Russian
River stream, by which he catches
salmon for consumption by his
foxes and also for human use.
Taking advantage of falls in
the river, located about 200 yards
distant from his residence, Mr.
Bishop places a box about five
feet long, three feet wide and three
feet deep, just below the drop in
the flow of the water so that
part of the running water flows
into the box and seeps out thru
the crevices in same.
The spawning salmon, which
may come over the falls, will fall
into the box but instead of con
tinuing on through the crevices,
as the water, they remain in the
box.
Then, all Mr. Bishop has to do
it haul in his box with the sal
mon and prepare it for the smok
ing and drying. At present he has
a large fish-drying rack filled al
j most to the top ridgepole with
! drying salmon.
Bishop has about 30 foxes and
he may pelt them this fall but
this is very uncertain.

The KOHLER Automatic*
produces 110-volt current
The Kohler Automatic Power and Light Plant produces
standard 110-volt electricity, and therefore allow* you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than those of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of4 ‘no storage batteries. * ’ This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large bank of
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, for
starting the engine.
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages
of city electricity with the same convenience—simply
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power or light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come in
and see the plant in operation. q

UTAH MINING MAN
SAYS SILVER WILL
BMIEMONETIZED
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Aug. 11.
—More outspoken than his collea
gues on the silver delegation just
back from Washington.George Sny
der, who represented the interna- j
tional silver commission, declares |
that the future of silver is as sure
as any mundane possibility can be.
Speaking of the mission to Wash
ington, he said:
“I do not believe the moratorium
matter will interfere in the least
with favorable action on silver. I
feel perfectly safe in going on re
cord with the following prediction:
“A bill which will have the ef
fect of remonitizing silver will be
introduced in the coming session
of Congress and. thanks to the
splendid efforts of Senators Smoot,
King, Borah and Pittman, will be
passed.
“My confidence is based on the
fact that there is a great deal of
support for silver in the United
States as well as in Canada and
Mexico and that there is no organ
ized opposition to a remonetization
program. It is certain to come.”
| COFFEE IMPORTS INCREASE
