The town of st. Anthony, in Fremont
county, away up near the western bor-
der of Yellowstone Park, had a great
blowout last week in celebration of the
completion of railroad to that place,
up the valley of Snake river from Idaho
Falls. This is the first instance in
Idaho of the construction of a railway
being chiefly prompted by agricultural
interests. The splendid valleys up
there have wider area of tillable lands,
cheapiy susceptible of irrigation than
any other section of the state. Its
productiveness, except for fruit grow
ing, is equal to the best, and within the
past few years it has had wonderful
growth of population. Fremont county
is the best and greatest game and fish
county in the state and is really a
sportsman's paradise. The numerous
branches of the head of Snake river are
nearly all within the county's limits.
Yellowstone Park forms its eastern
boundary and the summit of tire Rocky
Mountains the northern. st. Anthony
will be the present southwestern gate
way to the Park.

Crate one pound OF ordinary fuII
cream cheese. This is soft, uncolored
cheese sold in many places under the
name of Welsh rarebit cheese. Pit The
cheese into the saucepan; add dash of
red pepper, half n teaspoonful of salt,
the yolks of two eggs beaten with four
tablespoonfuls of cream; if you like
you may add teaspoonful of Worees-
tershire sauce. Put this over the fire
and stir constantly until the cheese be-
gins TO melt, then beat sapidly with a
fork until light and creamy. Take from
the fire and pour it once over squares
of toasted bread. Serve very hot.-La-

A Remedy for the San Jose Scale.

Horticulturists generally will no
doubt be very much interested in a
lately announced remedy for the San
Jose scale, an insect that requires no
introduction, as it has long been known
as the harbinger of woe and financial
injury for the afflicted orchardist.
Crude petroleum, according to a paper
recently read before the Association
for the Advancement of Science, is the
antidote that destroys and prevents
the termination of San Jose scales.
Experiments with crude petroleum
have demonstrated that it not only de-
stroys this pernicious insect, but that
it stimulates the growth of the tree to
which tits applied. The results of these
experiments have proved the fallacy of
two long. standing beliefs, the first al d
foremost of which is that the San Jose
scale could only be eradicated by de-
stroying the tree infested with the bug,
and the second that petroleum baths
are fatal to trees. Oil, when applied to
the leaves of trees, has "a bad effect, it
true, but then the remedy referred to
is INTENDED Tor the trunk of the tree
only. -Bradstreets.

Nature states that Maj. Ronald Ross,
the leader of the expedition to Sierra
Leone, found that in India the malaria
parasite is borne by the spotted-winged
mosquitoes and not by the common
brindled or gray mosquitoes, and his
recent cable message announced that
malaria on the west coast of Africa
is produced under the same conditions
as in India. There is evidence that the
Misunderstanding species only breeds in
small isolated collections of water
which can be easily dissipated, but the
expedition has not yet had time to
verify this point.-Chicago Tribune.

Mrs. Annie Tyacke Dead.

The many DeLamar friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Fred Tyacke will be grieved
to learn of the death of Mrs. Tyacke,
at their home in Sonora, California.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tyaeke resided here for
several years, aving here, with their
two boys, for California two years ago.
About a year ago Mrs. Tyacke was
stricken with paralyses from which she
had only partially recovered, and when
calling upon a neighbor had second
stroke and died three days later, on the
26th day of last month. Mrs. Tyacke
was a quiet, kindly lady who endeared
herself to all who made her acquaint-
ance Her husband and two mother
less boys have the coincidence and
sympathies of all who knew the family
here.

The South African War.

The sturdy Beers are proving to te
tough customers and are leading the
British Army bitter pace There is
more anxiety in Great Britain today
than any war has given her since the
American eclaratien of Independence
was announced. When Americans look
back one hundred and twenty-four
years it is only natural that their SYM
pathies should go out to struggling
republic on the other side of the world
and hope that its Valley Forge may be
succeeded by its Yorktown and that
Joubert and Butler may repeat the
history of Washington and CORVALLIS.
But, on the other hand, Kruger and
Joubert wrapped up in one are not
Washington, unlike the American colo
nists are not fighting against unjust
taxation without representation and
unjust laws forced upon them by Great
Britain. Great Britain is doing the
protesting and the Beers are framing
the unjust laws in this instance. A
population of Uitlanders, the majority
of them British subjects, have located
in the Dutch republic, over which Presi-
dent Kruger holds as absolute rule as
the Tsar holds in Russia, and it is he
and his congress which have made the
laws oppressive. 1t is these oppres-
sions against her subjects which has
prompted Great Britain to protest.
The war was partially forced upen her
and is partially the result of her greed.
