for Meeting.

Boise Is Making Great Preparations
for Meeting.
Senator Knute Nelson of Minnesota
has formally accepted an invitation to
attend the Fourteenth National Irriga-
ton congress, which meets at Boise.
September 8 and 8, and will be among
the distinguished national characters
taking part in it's proceedings.
The special train bringing Vice Pres
ident Fairbanks and party to the Ma
tional Irrigation congress at Boise is
scheduled to arrive in the capital city
of Idaho on the morning of September
8. A public reception will be held that
evening to the distinguished guests of
the congress.
A year ago the government reclama-
ton service had under construction ir-
riga ton projects involving the expend-
iture of $50, 900, 900 and the reclama-
ton of 1900, 900 acres of land. The
expenditure of this amount OF money
will result in creating land values in
excess of $4,000, 900, and the lands
reclaimed will produce an annual crop
of the value of $27, 900, 900, or nearly
sufficient to pay the sum advanced by
the government every year. This is
one of the arguments which will be
used by the advocates of the PROPOSE
ton of asking the government for an
addition to the fund of 500, 900, 900
for reclamation.

Governor Mcdonald of Colora do, COM

ress, which meets at Boise. Idaho, Sep
TENDER 8, to the people of the Centen-
NAL state, insures a large delegation

Cancer Rare Among All savages, Says
Savant.

That cancer can be warded off by
the Simple life" is the lesson learned
by DR.. Nicholas Sem, who returned
to Chicago recently from an extended
tour through the interior of Africa
In describing his explorations through
the dark continent" DR.. Seen de-
clared that the nearer man approach
ed the lower animals in simplicity OF
habit and diet the less liable is he to
cancerous growth. He said cancer is
almost unknown among the natives of
the interior of Africa, because of the
simple habits of the people, and that
civilized man is like a dollhouse plant
and cancer due largely to overnutri-
ton and luxurious living.
DR.. Sem went to study the pyg-
mics and aboriginal race of that couD-
try and the pests which infest it.
