School Notes.

Grade teachers meeting was
held at the respective wards
this week. So tar this year the
plan is to have the grade teach
ers have meetings in the re-
spective wards, the high school
teachers meeting being held in
the Second ward.
A loose leaf note book was
given this week to the teachers
by the superintendent, one to
each teacher. These books are
to be filled with the best work
the pupils in that particular
grade can do. The note books
are to be taken up in one month
and examined by the board
and by the superintendent.
The idea is to get the very best
from the respective rooms that
the mind of the teacher can
conceive and have worked out
by her pupils. 1t will serve as
a stimulus to both teacher and
pupil. 1t would be we'll to have
patrons I. III and have a look
at these cooks.
The basket ball girls have
decided that there will be no
open practice this year. All
practices will cease Immediate
ly if a call is made until the
business is attended to for
which the call is made. Miss
Lister is manager of the team.
They will play under the Asso-
citation rules. At the close of
the practice the doors of the
room in which such practice is
held will be closed.
A lively discussion arose in
room z over the manner of De
Soto's burial. 1t was really
very interesting to see how
much knowledge these pupils
had of this part of the history.
The day following the point was
settled, magazine articles were
presented and a picture of Pot
ter's statue of De Soto.
An unusual effort is being
made this year to secure neat
ness in work done.

some good men who do not re-
member whether | said $3.50 or
$3.50 in my article, so | write
again to tell you that the state
ment of Mr.. Sample is a lie
pure and simple.
What l did say, was that l
had averaged the cost of insur-
ance on $1,000 for the past
nineteen years and found it to
be 50 so per year, and it was so
printed in all the papers that I
saw except the Mo. Valley
Times. This paper made the
mistake getting $3.50 where
the $3.50 should have been.
Now Mr.. Sample knew this
was a mistake Of the printer
for the balance of the article
would prove it such. But
he saw a chance to
make some capital out of tie

Crop of Hucl<leberries-JessR Reeves
Blind From Cataracts-Cattle From
Idaho for Summer Range.

Alba, May 30.-The weather which
has been very dry all spring, has in
the past week been moistened up b.
frequent heavy rains and still con-
tinues to rain, making the grass and
vegetation of all kinds grow rapidly.
The farmers here have just finished
seeding. Although II looks a little late
to an outsider 1t is about the usual
time here, as about 90 days is the
usual time to make a crop in this
valley.
Our fruit crop here (mostly buckle
berries) has not been damaged b.:
the frosts, and promises to be an
abundant crop.
Eastern lumbermen are now esti-
mating the amount of timber on ar
$4,000 tract they have just secured
on Desolation creek, 20 miles south
of here, and a large lumber plan
will undoubtedly be started in these
mountains.

The weather of the past week has
not been conducive to making the
average person worry as to whether
he will have plenty of coal next WIN
ter, but nevertheless the coal dealers
have begun to make calculations on
what they will do il they are able to
secure a storage rate on coal this sum-
mer. says the Boise Statesman. The
experience of last winter will not soon
be forgotten by Boise coal dealers, and
IL they can help it it will not be re-
peated.
Dealing coal out to customers by
the sackful and with dozens of people
demanding fuel when it is not to be
had is little too strenuous life to be
we'll enjoyed. For the coming winter
the dealers hope to be better prepar-
ed to met any cold snap that may
come.
What is hoped for and probably
will be done is that the railroads and
mines will allow a storage rate during
the summer months. This would give
the dealers an opportunity to bring in
large quantity of coal and for the
consumer to also store his bins full
before fall.
Two years ago a storage rate was
secured and the dealers put in a large
supply and with the amount they
were able to get during the winter
there was no trouble during the cold
weather. That is what is desired for
this summer.
Last year there was no storage rate
and the dealers did not have their

CALIFORNIA FRUIT CROP.
Earthquake Did Not Injure the Fruit
or Grain Crops.

The Sacramento Valley Develop
ment association has issued the fol-
lowing circular, regarding fruit and
crop conditions throughout the state
of California:
The San Francisco earthquake and
the destructive fire which followed.
will have no effect upon California
crops or their marketing beyond oc-
casioning a temporary shortage in
cans through the burning of some Of
the principal plants where they are
manufactured, and there is ample
time to make provision for them.
The principal producing districts of
California were not damaged in the
least by the earthquake shock. No
damage was done in the Sacramento
and San Joaquin valleys, which to-
gether comprise the great interior
plain of California, the farming re-
gion of the state.
Damage by earthquake was confin-
ed to narrow strip along the coast
comprising. approximately, 100 square
miles: less than one-fifteenth of one
per cent OF the total area of the state
of California, which is $4,000 square
miles.
California orchards promise good
average crop Of fruit with the excep-
ton Of apricots, which are light
throughout the state. Some varieties
of peaches will be light in a few dis
tricts, but these minor deficiencies will
be more than made up by full crops
elsewhere. Shipping varieties OF
peaches and plums promise excellent
crops Cherries are now going for
ward in car lots, with the prospect of
more than average shipment. Grain
crops will be fully up to the average.
The first shipment of California
cherries is always an event of import
ance. as It marks the beginning Of the
fruit season. The date Of first ship
ments vary, having been as early as
March and sometimes late in April
according to season. The first ship
ment this year was made April II.

What To DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine
YOU should have the best. Sold by drug
