Dispatcher's Office at Nampa.

A dispatchers office was opened at
Nampa last Friday. The men have
their quarters in the old depot building.
j. L. Wellington occupies the position
of chief dispatcher and he has two as
sistants, w. l.. Watkins and FL. R.
Harris, while w. Fl. Jones occupies the
position of trainmaster.
This Office will have the handling of
all trains between Glenn's Ferry and

establishing the Office is to relieve that

of the large business done on the road.
1t is further desired to run the trains
on the Boise branch so that the public
may be accommodated just as fully as
circumstances will admit.

Approval Of Idaho Policy.

With the approval of Acting Chief A.
D. Melvin of the bureau of animal in
dustry, Colonel George s. Hickox of
Salt Lake, who has charge Of the work
of that bureau In the northwest, has
written to DIR. G, E. Noble, the state
veterinarian of Idaho, expressing his
appreciation of the hearty compliance
with orders and suggestions by the
national inspectors on the part of Idaho
officials and stockmen. He urges that
the present policy be vigorously contin-
ued and every effort made to secure
general compliance with the order for
fall dipping.
In his letter Col. Hickox says in part:
Il wish to express my appreciation
and that of the bureau of animal indus
try of the hearty cooperation by your
self and the people of Idaho in comply
ing with the orders of the sanitary
board of your state in the general dip
ping of all sheep in the spring of this
year. 1t has been pleasure to assist
you in this work. as there has been such
willing compliance with said order on
the part of the woolgrowers of your
state, and | wish to emphasize the ap-
prevail of the bureau of animal industry
and myself of the order just issued for a
general fall dipping.
when the fockmasters of your state
thoroughly understand that this fall
dipping will do away with the necessity
for spring dipping. believe they will
cheerfully comply with the order. You
would then have no further use for the
assistance of the government employees,
since the cases of infection would be 80
few that a careful inspection of the
sheep in the spring and the dipping of
those few focks which may be found
infected will be all that is necessary.
after this has been accomplished a
petition, backed by the sanitary board
and governor of your state. can be pre-
sented to the secretary of agriculture,
showing the state of Idaho to be clean
and asking to have the quarantine re.
moved therefrom, which I will gladly
advise and which / am sure will be
seconded by the chief of the bureau OF
animal industry.
Il am very sure that if this order is
complied with and the work thoroughly
done Idaho will accomplish in one year
what other states have been three OIL
four years in accomplishing. We learr
from practical experience many things
in regard to handling this disease. Tive
of the members of the board of sheer
commissioners OF Wyoming recent,
told me that the greatest mistake the.
made was in resembling the order fo
fall dipping in the year 1904, AM
claimed it had put them back at leas
two years in their efforts TO eradicat,
scab If the order for fall dipping il
enforced I believe Idaho will have tn
proud distinction of being declared
clean state and released from qaaran
tine before any other state in the quar-
antined district"

The Oklahoma chief executive has
called attention to an evil which too
often escapes attention. All law abid-

There arc tricks In every trade. also
peculiar difficulties which only the ex.
perienccd in each particular vocation
are aware Of says the Topeka Capital
"My trade Is the hardest TO master
and pays least Of all" says the young
man just fairly getting his start. II
should encourage him to stick to one
thing TO know that every other young
man thinks the same Of his business.
The Philadelphia Bulletin illustrates
this truth by conversation between a
banker and poet.
This minor poetry seems futile to
me-" the banker said, sneering. ANY.

write m nor poetry. It's only ques-
tion Of rhymes"
You sneer at rhymes" interjected
the fat and bald poet; give me a
rhyme for lounge.
The banker thought for three min
utes, but in vain. He was stumped.
TRY me again" he said
"A rhyme for sylph.
Again the banker failed
"A rhyme for wasp.
Nothing doing" said the banker,
after long pause.
"Gulf,' mouth hemp pint
'puss

can't think OF rhyme for any Of those
words"
The minor poet tried him again with
"bIge." depth" "wolf," with. " volt"
scarf" sauce" "fugue, bulb, and
''bourn"
I'm stuck" confessed the banker.
Minor poetry is harder than J thought.
It's wonder to me you fellows are
not paid more"
"we don't care anything about The
pay. It's the glory we are after" the
poet answered with dignity. But |
have been tricking you. For the words
that gave you there isn't rhyme in
the English tongue"
Evidently the banker was ignorant
Of the first principles OF poetry, minor
OF major. for that matter He neither
knew that no rhymes existed for the
words given him. nor that il made no
difference whether rhymes existed or
not, since the words are not poetical
words Imagine poetry dealing with
such terms as bilge hemp, pint, puss,
bulb etc. In the lexicon OF poetry
there is no such word as bilge.
The poet retired from the field in
complete triumph having proved that
