LII the year past Idaho has made
advances everywhere. Her mines
have increased wonderfully in yield
her agricultural area has been ex.
teiidcd by thousands of acres through
settlement and the carrying of water
upon heretofore arid lands; her focks
and herds have vastly increased; her
fruit area has been broadened; every
element I'd make a most rich and
prospectus state are hers, and those
elements are being swiftly brought
dnder control by brave and ener-
getic people. No place possesses
richer resources; no place is blessed
by better climate; no place offers
more inducements for men who are
willing to work, and who ask no ia
vors except a. fair chance and an open
field. If what is told us is true, and
we believe it, the yield from Idaho
mines will in the year to come crowd
close to the yield Of her great neigh
Dor Montana, and savants in the
business hold that as yet there has
been only a commencement. in
agricultural possibilities we believe
that Idaho is superior to any of the
other divisions Of the great basin De-
cause her Streams are more plenty
and the altitude Of MANY of her val
leys permits the growth Of fruits and
cereals in the greatest possible pro-
fusion: Nowhere in all the world do
the hardest fruits, like plums, cher
ries, apples, etc., attain to a lustiei
growth or a more delicious flavor.
So her sage brush vanishes away and
in its stead the orchard, the garden
and broad fields with unduIating
pillows OF grain appear. The homes
that spring up attest the prosperity
of their owners, and the school houses
reveal the fact that the people appre-
ciate the fact that there is no safety
to state except it rests upon the
hearts Of an intelligent and patriotic
people. While we look for changes
that will secure increased prosperity
to other territories, no change need
be waited for in Idaho. Her steady
onward advance is already assured
by mine, by field, by orchard and by
her fodks and herds, her revenue.

Does the Earth Really Move?

Science says that it does, but we can not
help wondering sometimes if there isn't
some mistake about it, when we see how
stubbornly certain old fogies cling to their
musty and antiquated ideas. 1t was be-
heved once that consumption was incurable
and although it has been clearly demon
strated that it is not, thousands OF old-tlme
physicians close their eyes. and put thelr

Shall Women Be Allowed to voteP

The question of female suffrage has agi-
tated the tongues and pens of reformers for
many years, and good arguments have been
adduced for and against it. Many of the
softer sex could vote intelligently, and many
would vote as their husbands did, and give
no thought to the merits of political issue.
They would all vote for Dr. Pierce's Favor
ite Prescription, for they know it is boon
to their sex. 1t is unequaled for the cure
Of leucorrhea, abnormal discharges, morn
ing sickness, and the countless ills to which
women are subject. 1t is the only remedy
for womans peculiar weaknesses and all

WORKING THREE HORSES.
How to Arrange the Draft So That Each
Will Have an Equal Load.

1t is frequently desirable TO work
three horses abreast upon plow or
harrow, or in other work which is too
heavy for two horses and not heavy
enough 10 warrant the use of four"
horse team. There are any number of
contrivances for equalizing the draft
on three horses hitched abreast.
There seems to be considerable diff
Guilty, however, in arranging the dra
so that each shall have an equal share
of the work to do. The simplest way,
perhaps is to have an evener made
with clip or clever at each end, and
another exactly one-third of the
length. To the latter the plow or 9TH
pr object to be hauled is attached. 10
the clip at the end of the short arm
should be attached an ordinary two
horse double-tree for two of the three
horses, and at the end of the long arm
should be attached the singlo-tree for
One horse. In this manner the three
horses will be found to have an equal
load, and their work will be performed
easily.
There is another method which is
sometimes adopted, based upon the
same principle-that the two horses
are attached to the short arm of q
lever and the single horse to the long
nrm, the point of application of the
combined power being at exactly one
third the length of the lever. The
s cond method is this: A short iron
bar, not over eighteen inches long, or
even less, has three holes drilled
through it-one at each end AMI the
other at one-third the distance. This
is fastened vertically to the plow beam
with the long arm uppcrmost. 10 the
hole at the lower end of the short arm
is'attached q long doub,e-tr1e, so long
that between the singie-tree there shall
be room for the third horse TO work.
This horse has his single-tree attached.
10 Il hole in the long arm of the lever,
and in this manner the three-horse
team does good work. -SaH francisco

"Oh, no! was afraid I had shown my

not want any thing about This to seem like

coherently; but Norris understood, and how
much longer this by-play would have gone
on under the eyes of the elders there is no
telling, had not Lyman returned at that
moment accompanied by his visitors.
"Why, it is Mr.. Farrakerp' exclaimed
Carol.
Mr.. Farraker it was, brown, shrlveled,
beaming, as he shook hands with his friends
and was presented to the remainder Of the
little company.

Lyman bent his head in answer to look
from his sister, and she whispered a few
words in his ear.
"Carol authorizes me to say that she has
made choice of another guardian" he
| spoke, smilingly, when he raised it. AS
| Norris and she are soon to follow the oX-

| she naturally wishes to confide her in

There YVES a little cloud on Norris face
now.

And that, in the end, was the way the

no man Of purer business integrity or high
er moral principles can be readily found
than Lyman Childer. He is always ready
to extend helping hand to the weak and
erring; though he made full atonement for
that one slip of his, he can never forget it.
