The secretary of the teachers meeting
held at Louis Corners on February 4, re-
ports only four persons present, two of
whom were teachers, and expresses dis
enlargement over the poor showing made.
Some good meetings have been held
there this winter, however, and the pro-
Jectors of the organization have reason to
congratulate themselves on that fact, in
view of the entire failure in an adjoining
locality.

CoAsTING on North Main street during
the day time is not only dangerous to
those who indulge in it but to those who
drive on that street. The boys should
limit their sport to the evening and early
morning. And, by the way, how is it so
many boys may be found on this street
while school is in session? Some parents
must be very remiss in their duty.
Coasting is an excellent sport but it is
mighty poor for boys as regular bus

LET Us LIvE.IN HOPE.

sThc Ketchum Keystone hopes
that after the great avalanche
which swept over our great AM
erican land. on the 9th inst, with
such terrific force, that everything
that was proclaimed from the
stump by the leaders II the repub-
lican party for the good of the peo-
pie, by upsetting the policy and
busting the present administration,
may be fulfilled. Let us hope,
first of all, that the successful par
ty will pursue such policy as will
ameliorate the condition of the
laboring classes-the promise Of
which was SO often reiterated by
republican orators during the cam
paign. Protect, as they proclaimed
they would, the toilers on the land,
on the sea, and those deep. down in
the bowels of the earth against
starvation wages-a relief which
was earnestly inaugrated by the
present administration, and which
was as sure to follow as the night
does the day. Let us hope
that through. the wisdom and sa-
gacity of a new administration of
the government that our CONNER
cial intercourse withsthe nations-. of
the world may be of such charac-
ter that peace may wave it's olive
branch from sea to sea and in
every cline. Let us hope that all
the industrial pursuits of mankind
throughout the length and breadth
Of our free and boosted country
the waning condition of which
there has been SO much complaint
about Of late years-may be re-
stored to new life and prosperity,
all of which has been implicitly
promised by the successful party Of
to-day. Let us hope that the new
administration will arrange the
recollection Of revenue upon such a
basis that our people may be re-
lieved from the burden of unjust
and unwarrantable taxation for the
purpose Of defraying the expenses
of the machinery of the government.
And last, but not least, let US hope
that with a republican president
and both houses of congress, before
another year rolls around, the silver
dollar, ''the dollar of our. fathers"
may be placed where it belongs
upon an equality with the gold dol.

withstanding. The democratic par.
ty retires from the field in good
order, waiting to see whether all
the good things which have been
promised by the other side will be
realized in the next four years, and

president elect, like Joshua of old
will lead the people to the land

TREE PLANTING.

As the time is approaching when
attention should be paid to the cul-
tivation of trees In Mountain Home
it is important to know what vari-
ties are the most profitable, and
what succeeds the best in, our eli
mate.
The editor Of the Nampa Prog
ress says: The locust and box
elder are hardy varieties of hard
wood, grow rapidly, make good TIM
Der and fuel. An abundance Of
seed can be procured in Boise for
NEARLY the gathering, those who
contemplate planting these varieties
should get seeds this fall. In order
to insure..the germanation Of. the
locust seed, they should be put into
boiling hot water and let remain
until they are swollen.
Of the soft woods the Lombardy
poplar is the most rapid grower and
is the most ornamental, but is in
ferior for fuel to the balm, common
ly called cottonwood, which is ma
tive on this coast. Both the poplar
and balm grow readily by cuttings.
The best time to procure the cut
tings is in February and March;
any time in the spring before the
leaf is formed will do. They should
be planted out Immediately, but il
this is not convenient they should
be kept where they will not dry OF
freeze. After they are set they
should be thoroughly wet, never
allow the ground to get dry until
they have put out their leaves and
frequent irrigation should be re-
sorted to during the first season,
their is no danger of over doing
this.
We would not advise planting
the coniferous species on desert
lands, they require great deal OF
care and unless kept well shaded
will die the first year.
Following is a list of trees that
have been tried and succeed well
in this country: maple, elm, ash
linden or Eastwood, black walnut
butternut, chestnut and mulberry
The best plan to secure your trees
is to raise them from the seed your
self, never rely upon agents, but
when ever it is desirable to pur
chase trees send to nurserymer
who advertise in the papers fol
their catalogues.
In taking up trees they should
be marked SO that they can be Sc
the same way as regards the com
pass, the side of a tree that stooC
facing the north should never b.
set facing any other direction. Thi
is an important matter and on
which is often disregarded, much t.
the detriment Of the tree, and Otter
causing its death. The groun'
around young trees should b.
mulched, this will preserve tn
moisture and protect the trees from
drouth as well as heat and sever
frosts.
