How to Break Up 0 Cold.

It may be a surprise to many to learn that a severe cold can be com pletely broken up in one or two dsys' time. To do this, however, prompt action is necessary. The first symptoms of aoldre dra cy, oud couvgh, a proufsde watery dis charge from the nose, and a thin, white coating on the tongue. Wh en Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken every hour on the first ap- pearance of these symptoms, it counteracts the effect of the cold and restores the system to healthy condition within day or two. For sale by all dealers.

 oThe Colorado river reached a Jstage of high water Wednesday 'elual to the highest point of last year when it was as high as it had been at any time for twenty years previous. The flood season is ex- tremely early this year, as the stage seldom arrives before June 18th, but it is probable that this year the water will not again be as high as it is this week. Warm weather and rain storms in the mountains of Utah, Colorado and Wyoming, are the cause of the early arrival of the flood waters this season. Needles Eye.
 The Needles Eye states that R. Y. Williams, section foreman for the Salt Lake, at Alton, was assault ed by thlee Mexicans, who used rock and drew knives. He was knocked down and stunned by rock. As he revived he saw a Mexican creeping upon him wthi knife. He shot this man twice, killing him. The other two Mexicans advanced upon him. He fired and one man dropped; the other ran as Williams fired, throwing away his knife, and crawled into some brush. The two wounded Mexicans were taken to the county hospital.

The MiIwdu kee Changes IFS Route

An amendment to the articles OF
incorporation of the Chicago, Mill
waukee & st. Paul railway, filed
in the office of the secretary OF
state yesterday, providefor achange
in the route of the road as follows:
''The railroad so constructed is in
tended to be run from point upon
the boundary line between the states
of Idaho and Montana, near mile
post No. 141 of the survey OF said
boundary line, thence extending in
a westerly direction through Sho-
shone and Kootenai counties and
the Couer d'Alenc reservation to
some point to be located on the vest
boundary line of Idaho within the
limits of said reservation. The
change is the result Of new sur
vey, which is identical with the old
for the most part, but enters the
state at a different point, and To-
Gates better grades. Statesman.

INTERESTING RELICS OE
IDAHO PIONEER DAYS

The pioneers at the fair today
displayed great interest in the ex-
hibit of Idaho relics. Included in
this exhibit are photographs Of a
number of the pioneers of the state,
taken years ago. A number of
copies of election returns in the
zoos are also exhibited. One of
these is of an election at Boonville
in 1868, showing the vote for ter
ritorial representative in congress,
John M. Canady receiving 81 votes
and William II. Wallace 50. Some
of the work of the pupils in the
first public school of Idaho, at Flor
ence in 1864, is shown.
An interesting story is connected
with an old hammer which is in
the exhibit. 1t was carried by a
prospector named Thatcher, who en-
countcrcd an Indian while alone.
The hammer was his only weapon,
but with it ne killed the Indian.
Passing the same spot few years
later he found the skeleton of the
Indian and beside it the hammer,
which he again took possession of.
The hammer came into the posses
sion of Mrs. John Daily, who loaned
it to the exhibit.
The landslide of a plow which
made the first irrigation ditch il
Idaho in 1855 is exhibited. 1t wa:
made from a wagon tire found OF
the old Oregon trail by pioneer:
who founded Fort Lemhi.
A cape worn by a child named
Anderson, the first white chile
born in Idaho, is exhibited. Among
the interesting pictures is one o
the interior of the old Episcopa
chapel. A candlestick used in tn
first Catholic church in Idaho, il
1868, is also displayed. There ar
a number of Indian relics, one Q
them being rope made OF human
hair, taken from scalps. The rop
was made by the Bannock Indians

SMALL GRAIN is
ALL THRESHfD
Yield not FIattering but
Some Valuable Lessons
are Taught TO
Farmers.

T. ]. LaForrest, who has been
in charge of ]. H. CARROTS steam
threshing outfit, finished threshing
all the grain in this vicinity yes
terday. There was only about 200
acres in small grain near town, all
of it new ground, and very little of
it properly prepared, either for crop
or for irrigation. Results are
therefore not very satisfactory.
The wheat average was 25 bushels
to the acre, barley about the same
and oats forty bushels.
Dan Mclaughlin had the best oat
crop, 90 bushels to the acre, with
only two irrigations during the sea-
son. Fred Marhoefer raised the
best wheat, 40 bushels to the acre,
and Frank Highland the best mac
sroni wheat, 80 bushels, which is
considered only about half crop.
The truth of the matter seems
10 be, as Mr.. LaForrest says, that
the farmers hereabouts don't un-
dcrstand irrigation; they have
much to learn. Most of the grain
planted this year was by people who
never had anything to do with irri-
cation before, and yet they did
about as we'll as those who have
lived here for years, which would
indicate that the old timers have
not had enough water heretofore to
enable them to learn from expert
cnce.
This thing of irrigation Is SCI
ence. One must know when and
how much water to use. 1t is of
paramount Importance that water be
applied to growing crops at exactly
the right time, that the proper and
best effect can be secured. Only a
few days ago the agricultural de-
partment issued a work of instruc-
tion to the inexperienced, warning
them that the greatest danger is in
the use of too much water; ii is
far more injurious than not enough
Then, it seems to be absolutely nee
essary that the ground should be
properly prepared, so that the
water will flow freely wherever
needed, and at all times be under
perfect control. Much of this nee
essary information must, of course,
be learned from experience, but a
great deal can be gained from read
ing what others have learned from
experience and what others have
demonstrated by experiment and
scientific study.
1t is big subject, fascinating
proposition that ought to command
the best brain effort of our people
