Today this was cleared up and six de-

Some of these trains, which had started
east, but were returned when General
Manager Wells telegraphed from Elgin
that the tracks were under two feet of
water there, and that some damage
has occurred in the Meadow Valley

company's greatest difficulties. Re-

his confession weight.
Anything in relation TO the murder of

hogs consigned to Spokane or
coast points. The train was so
heavily loaded that four engines
were required to pull it up the
Kendrick hill. Practically all
of this stock was raised in Idaho
county and the train load shows
in slight degree how valuable
the stock business is becoming to
the residents of this county.
Good stock always finds a ready
market and provides the farmer
with cash at all times instead of
forcing him to run into debt the
entire year as is the result where
the exclusive growing of grain is
practiced.

DEATH TO WILD MUSTARD.

Farmers need no longer fear
the mustard, dock or Canada
thistle.
At least such is the statement
of scientists and private individ-
uals who have been experiment.
ing recently with a view of an
initiating these pests which
often render otherwise valuable
tracts of land worthless.
A cure has been found, it is
claimed, and which when used
on fields where the noxious
weeds thrive, kills the pests but
does not injure grass nor clover.
This spray consists of a ten per
cent. solution of iron sulphate.
To spry an acre of ground, it re-
quires 100 pounds of iron of sui
plate dissolved in 81 gallons of
water.
Extensive experiments carried
on at the Wisconsin agricultural
college resulted in the entire
destruction of the mustard weed
in fields where it had a strong
hold. Concerning the sprayer
used, the Scientific American
says:
"The sprayer used for the
pests has the appearance of a
chemical fire engine but from
the fact that the large copper
tank which holds rs gallons of
solution is mounted on two
wheel cart and is drawn by one
horse. Pipes filled with numer-
GUS holes extend like arms ten
feet from each side of the ma
chine. A fog-like spray is
spread over the field from these
pipes. A pump is set in motion
by the drawing of the machine.
This keeps a pressure of loo
pounds on the liquid. The arms
of the machine can be adjusted
so that the spray is brought close
to the crop or in case of narraw
places the arms can be raised
perpendicularly. Care is taken
to prevent foreign material from
gaining entrance to the reservoir.
The solution before using is
strained through fine wire
sieve. +"
Particular attention must be
given the time at which the
spray is used. Practical ex-
periments have shown that the
best time for spraying fields in
fected with mustard is when the
plant is in the third leaf. The
day must be bright, there must
be no wind, and there should be
no dew on the weeds. If rair
follows the spraying within {
few hours the solution will b.
weakened and the mustard will
not be successfully exterminated
If rain follows 16 hours after the
spraying the determination will
be quite perfect. In case OF
rain two hours after, so per cen
of the mustard lived to produc'
seed.
