Will Debate At GrangevilIe.

Next Wednesday evening the
debate between the local High
School and the Grangeville High
School will be pulled off at
Grangeville. The question to be
discussed is that Of guaranteeing
bank deposits, Grangeville hav-
ing the negative side Of the case.
The local debators are Johnnie
Rookie, Jesse Robertson and
Charlie Simmons. Two of these
debators, it will be remembered,
were on the team that so easily
defeated Grangeville last year.
The Grangeville team is stronger
this year than last and has been
thoroughly coached on the ques-
tion by three competent instruc-
tors. We notice by the Univer-
sity Argonaut that Mr.. Lukins
and one Of their debators have
been over to Moscow and Pull
man working up the question.
While there they heard the debate
between the University and w.
IS. C. upon the same question,
consequently we rather expect
them to put up much stronger
debate this year than last, but if
they win it will be only after a
hard fight. Our debating team
and it's supporters will leave Cot
tonwood on the Wednesday even
ing train and will remain there
over night, returning the next
morning. The judges are Rev.
A. G. Saxton, of Grangeville,
Reuben Overman, of Mt. Idaho,
and Hon. ]. G. Rowton, of
Kooskia.

Theory Attracts Attention.

The theory of A. C Hill of Nash vile that ants can be used to e&ter- minate boil weeyils, an insect that is now doing great da..ge to cotton crops in Texas and other Southern states, as well as in parts of Arkansa3, is attracting attention among cottGA men of Little Rock. MT Hill advanc- ed his theory 10 Commissioner Guy E. Tucker in letter received by MT. Tucker a few days ago and MT. Tuck CT may take the matter up or refer 1t to the government experimental sta tion in Arkansas to investigate.
 Mr. Hill experimented with ants and found that placed in cotton field they will destroy all cotton insects and bugs. Although they were not tried on boil weevils. he firmly believes that they will kill that pest.

Cotton Still Unsold.

Days have passed into weeks and weeks into months since the state farm cotton was placed on the market for sale, and still the cotton is un- sold, and the prospects of a possible buyer are said to be less glorious than they were few weeks ago. One man connected with penitentiary af fairs, who does not care to be quoted on the subject, stated a few days ago that he did not believe the Peniten- tiary Board would obtain 15 cents for the state farm cotton very soon. "1 have nothing 10 do with the sale of the cotton, and it is none of my busi- ness" stated the man in question. 'as to what they do with it, but from all present indications the board will wait long time before it is offered a uni versal price 15 cents for it's cotton"
 The cotton is now stored at Pine Bluff. It is marketed on both the Little Rock and Memphis markets.

IMMIGRATION FROM
 SOUTH EXPECTED
U, S. FARMERS ARE RECOGNIZING SPLENDID OPPORTUNITIES OFFERED BY WESTERN
 CANADA.

St Paul, Minn., Feb 9, 1908.-Pres- ent indications are that the Canadian Northwest will draw an exceptionally heavy movement of new settlers from the United States this year. It should surpass the banner record for 1907 This is not only based on the fact that the Americans have come to realize generally that the Canadian Northwest offers splendid opportuni- ties, but also because the railroads have awakened to the fact and are offering rates to the Canadian North west which are exceptionally favor able.
 The lines which lead to St. Paul from the east and south are offering homeseekers' rates to the Canadian Northwest this year which are on parity with those in existence to the southwest for a couple of seasons.
 These rates can be obtained from any agent of the Canadian govern ment, who will be pleased to give all information possible regarding those districts which offer the greatest in ducements to settlers. The weather throughout Western Canada has been remarkably good this year. X tele- gram from the winter wheat belt of Southern Alberta dated at Cardston, Alberta, January 29th, says:
 This winter up to January % was nothing short of marvel in fact, It was the finest anyone can remember for twenty-five years though there have been others nearly as good. The days were fine, sunny and warm with light frosts at night. Overcoats and gloves. etc, were discarded by most people in the day time. There was so little frost in the ground that post holes could be dug without any trouble after the first inch was broken through. Winter wheat remained fresh and green although there has been no snow since the September storm If there is an early spring. winter wheat should gain great start"
 Amongst the reports of the yield of last year the following extracts are taken:
  ing on November, 1907, says: T have 70 acres in crop, 90 acres of wheat and seven acres of oats. My average yield of oats was 35 bushels to the acre, and of wheat 45 bushels. The value to me was $35 per acre.
 J. F. Haycock, of Magrath, writes in November: 'I had 65 acres in win ter wheat, which went 60 bushels to the acre; oats averaged so bushels. l also had 12 tons of hay worth $10 per ton. I got GOO bushels of pota- toes from three acres of land; I got eight tons per acre from five acres of sugar beet"
 J. F. Bradshaw, of Magrath, had 1,030 acres of winter wheat last year which averaged 391a bushels to the acre. The value of his farm products per acre was: Wheat, $31.60; oats, $1120 and barley, s25.15.
