Impoverished Soil

Impoverished soil, like impov- erished blood, needs a proper fertilizer. A chemist by analyz- ing the, soil can tell you what fertilizer to use for different products.
 If your blood is impoverished your doctor will tell you what you need to fertilize it and give it the rich, red corpuscles that are lacking in it. It may be you need a tonic, but more likely you need a concentrated fat food, and fat is the element lacking in your system.
 There is no fat food that is so easily digested and assimi- lated as

TO DIVISION
Col. HammiII of Nezperce Says
That the People Don't
Desire it

There is no sentiment in our section
in favor of county division" said Col.
w. w. Hamill of Nezperce last even
ing at the Bollinger, but. if the per-
sistant methods Of those outside Of the
county in securing division for Nez
Perce county is kept up then We will be
forced to protect ourselves. and ask to
be put in a county by ourselves" :"
Thus spoke Col. Hammill when ques-
toned concerning the matter of county
division which was broached in Boise
during the present session of the legis
lature. I'VE are not looking for di-
vision but it appears that every two
zens of our section to raise. money and
send men to Boise to oppose the di-
vision and the people are becoming dis
gusted with it and it will be only a
question of time when we will be forced
to protect ourselves and ask for the
formation of a county of our own. We
are live community and we will fight
any intrusion into our affairs. We OBJ
ject strongly to be tackled on the tail
end of some new county which people
are trying to form for political pur-
poses As guarantee of the good
faith of the people of Nezperce prairie
our members of the legislature were
pledged not to consider division of
this county, and we are willing to stand
by the pledge but We are certainly be-
coming tired of this periodical move
ment to tack us onto some other pro-
posed county"
Col. Hammll was in the city yester-
day from Nezperce and left this morn
ing for Spokane on private business.
He is United States commissioner at
Nezperce and is one of the prominent
people of that section. His uttterances
are a fair indication of the sentiment
of the Nezperce people and from his
conversation it can be readily seen
that the people of this section are not
the ones who desire the division. He
does not predict any legislation this
session towards the division of the
county.

TO BRIDGE THE SNAKE

SALEM, Ore. Jan. 31-SenatsJA-

preparation for $4,000 from the state
to build an interstate bridge across the
Snake river at Ontario, connecting
with Idaho. Senator Rand stated that
he has been given 10 understand the
legislature of Idaho will appropriate
$4,000 for the work If Oregon shows
any desire TO do the same and that
with the funds thus raised a good
bridge can be put up.
There is no town in Idaho directly
across from Ontario, although the pro-
posed bridge is to be located not more
than four miles from Payette, Idaho.
The Oregon state senator declares that
such bridge would open up a great
amount of Idaho trade that is diverted
into other channels, because there is
no way to reach Ontario, and that ne.
believes the state would be recon-
pensed for whatever money was spent.

Ashley of kootenai county has pre-

aroused considerable opposition in

names of our rivers and counties and

that Snake" is not fit name for the

more appropriate can be made. 1t is
argued that "Shoshone," the present
spelling and pronunciation of the In

be very appropriate but that il is o
better to go back of that and pick up
the name "Shoshone from the dim
