1t is almost always a good plan to
keep the harrow close up to the plow-

the soil. There are many problems go

Farm land in a certain locality was
selling at about 800 per acre and
trolley line passed along through that
locality and land now sells at from
$125 to $3.50 per acre. This is the way
it helps the land owner. The land is
more valuable, and IL is the demand
for it that causes it to enhance in
value.

DAY 1T CONES ON
New Disease Called MOrbuS Sabbath
Gus Spreading.

We have been handed the fol-
lowing account OF new disease
which is said to be spreading rapid.
ly and we are informed by a Boise
minister that it already has se-
cured strong foothold here. He
does not suggest any remedy for
the trouble, but leaves it to the
discretion of the patient. The dis
ease was discovered by clergyman
in a far eastern town who says it is
known as Morbus Sabbaticus or
Sunday sickness, which is a dis
ease peculiar to church members.
The attack comes on suddenly
every Sunday; no symptoms are
felt on Saturday night; the patient
sleeps well and eats q. hearty
breakfast, but about church time
the attack comes on and continues
until the services are over for the
morning. Then the patient feels
easier, and eats good dinner, In
the afternoon he feels much bet
ter, and is able to take a walk, talk
politics and read the Sunday
papers; he eats a hearty supper
and about church time has an
other attack and stays at home
The patient retires early, sleeps
we'll, and wakes up Monday morn
ing refreshed and able to 60 Il
work and does not show symp
toms of the disease until the fol
lowing Sunday.-Statesman.

SUCCESSFUL OPERATION
Mrs. Underwood Resting Easy at ST.

L. A. Underwood returned Sunday
evening from Boise. where, ct st..
Lukes hospital, Mrs. Underwood un-
derwent an operation on April 8. DR..
w. F. Smith of Mountain Home and
Boise, had charge of the case. He was
assisted in the operation, which was Of
an extremely delicate nature, by Boise
associates of high standing, and the
indications 80 far point toward very
satisfactory results.
When Mr.. Underwood left the hos
pital Sunday, having remained at the
beside of his wife since the operation,
she was resting easy. He was informed
yesterday by DR.. Smith, who is in regu-

RURAL PHONES
n
Ranchers Nay Construct Their Own
Hello Lines.

Owing to plans recently adopted
by the R. M. B. T. Co., ranchers
may now construct their own tele.
phone lines and connect with the
company's wires, at very low and
attractive rate.
The telephone company. says the
Statesman, in a recent article on
the subject, will be glad to cooper
ate with groups of rsnchers who
may desire to take advantage Of
this proposition and will assist
them to secure equipment and ma
terial at reasonable prices. This
arrangement anticipates that
transmitters and receivers (the
vital part of a telephone) shall be
furnished by the company. This
makes an additional saving on the
part of the prospective subscribers
in that they can secure the neces'
sary equipment for their lines at
prices ranging from $6 to SO in
stead OF from $12 to SIS as has
frequently been the case. Further
it enables the farmers, by doing
little work at odd times, to secure
telephone service for 80 cents pei
month instead of from SIS to $24
per year as heretofore.

The Modern wife and the Money
Question.

It is usually the shadow OF
money that brings the first par
tial eclipse to the honeymoon, and
unless the problem is rightly
handled the eclipse may become
total. The modern wife cannot be
always asking for money and re-
tain either her happiness or her
self. respect. The husband could
not keep his business going if he
did not have a payday for bis
employees or if he was careless
about settling his bills. He can.
not expect to keep his house going
without a financial arrangement
that will give it regularity and
security. 1t is passing strange that
this matter should be a constant
difficulty in millions OF homes, out
it is a hardship which wives are
supposed to bear uncomplainingly.
She is wise woman who rebels
early and secures her rights, for
she never will become a success.
full wife until she has her part OF
the income without days OF grace
or discounts. This is important;
it is vital. Unless it is made
plain and duly fixed, all her other
purposes and aspirations will be
forever handicapped From the
