If it is the intention of our inquirer

oats. We should SOW clover, a little
timothy and two bushels of oats to the
acre in the spring. Prepare the seed

ground has been narrowed twice and
the oats fairly well in. We use about
five pounds OF timothy and eight
pounds of clover. This is very good

of peas with the rape.

INSTITUTES.

All over the middle West the report
comes to us that there Is great
awakening among the farmers at the
Institutes held 50 far this winter. In
every institute that we have attend
ed they have been pronounced the
best that we ever heif.. and as the
institute Is becoming better known in
it's workings. and covering a wider
field. the results will be much greater
than in the past. The farmers just
now are discussing practical ques-
lions, such as farm drainage, rotating
of crops, soil fertility. road making,
corn breeding, etc. In fact the farm
ers are beginning to awaken to the
fact that they are the people. and It
is in their hands that the great i'm.
provement along these lines is to BE-
made. Theory is all right, science u
all right. and when the two are com
bined with good horse sense and lit
tie push, together with our rich soil
it is not easy to realize what the re-
suit may be.

Wood d. Parker. the versatile
editor of the St. Anthony Peak
Chronicle, has had a nice little
writeup in the last issue of the
Western Publisher, paper devot-
ed to the publishers of the west.
While the article very properly
describes Mr.. Parker as a progress
sive publisher and his paper as one
of the foremost of Idaho, it neglects
to give him credit for one of the
greatest achievements of his varied
life. The incident referred to is
his plotting through its initial
encampment in July of last wear
the regimental band of the Second
1dahos. without a chevron to dis
tinguish his subordinates or bit
of gold braid or cord to elevate
him above the moi polloi. Brother
Parker was credit to the state he
served and received the personal
appreciation of the United States
officers in charge of the Idahos.
Idaho Falls Times.
Thanks awfully Brother Mill.
A few boquets occasionally do a
fellow world of good, especially
one in the newspaper business,
where kicks, cuffs, curses and a
lean stomach are the usual reward
for working fourteen hours a day
for the welfare of the general pub
lie.
If the regimental band of the
Second Idahos achieved any credit
at the encampment last summer, a
very large portion of that credit is
due to the energy, skill and patience
of the First Sargent, Bert P. Mill.
Bro. Mill is not only a Jim dandy
on an encampment trip but he dis
plays the same energy and ability
in his newspaper business. He
has made the Idaho Falls Times
one of the brightest. newsiest and
most prominent papers in the state.

WINTER SPRAYING.

The spraying of fruit trees during
the winter should not be neglected

branch of the tree should be well
sprayed with solution of one pound
of copper sulphate In twenty-five gal
Ions of water to check scab. coddline

ker worm, plum curculic and San Joss
scale on apple trees. to be followed
up after the blossoms fall by the rega-
lar bordeaux mixture of four pound
each of sulphate of copper and lim
to fifty gallons of water. Some prefer
to use six pounds sulphate of copper
instead of four pounds. but we are not
sure that this is any better than the
other. while for peach trees that have
put out their leaves the use of three
pounds of sulphate of copper to six
or nine pounds of lime is thought
strong enough for fifty gallons OF
water But we are now speaking Of
a winter spray before the leaves come
out The mixture of fifty pounds
each of lime, salt and flowers of sui
phur is used on the Pacific coast for
San Jose scale. but in our Eastern
climate 1t does not seem to be as Of
fectual, as the frequent rains wash 4

trees two or three times in the winter

The teachers and students are

Four of our leading students
took part in an oratorical contest

was for the purpose of selecting an
Academy representative in an
intercollegiate oratorical contest to
be held in Salt Lake City about the
middle of this month. The Judges
have not yet decided whom to
select as they have not completed
the work of examining the CON-

took part in the contest last Friday
night were VIM. Nelson, Henry

THAT BOY OF YOURS.

Some wag has gotten off the fol-
lowing. says the Peoples Advocate,
which when read, by any father,
will put him to thinking:
Twenty years hence the boys OF
today will be men. They will be
doctors and drunkards, lawyers
and liars, senator's and sneakthie-
yes, editors and idiots. ministers and
murderers, democrats and repub-
licans, and so on down the line.
1t is impossible to tell for certainty
in just what class yours will be,
but it is possible for your boy to be
put in to such influence as will
steer him in the right direction.
Follow the boys for twelve years,
some of them will be in Jail. What
class is your boy training for?
This brings to mind the sweet
song, "Where is your boy to-
night" You had better look him
up if you don't know. He may
be one of the few who will &C
estray and who, twenty years hence
may serve sentence in the peni
tertiary, or it may be suffer the
penalty Of death on the gallows
Where was your boy last nigh
when you retired?
