Sweet Pea Culture.

The real gist of sweet pea culture
is to keep the blossoms picked clean
and not allow a single seed pod to
form; If it is allowed, then adieu to
a further supply of flowers. The
mission of all plant life is to repro
duce its species, and thwarted in that
by the removal of it's blossoms, 1t
will persistently repeat its efforts to
produce seed. Once that is accom-
plished it rests, content, from its la
Dor. Like the pansy bed, the vines
must be gone over every day and all
withered blossoms removed; better
still, pick every blossom as 1t opens
ere it yet has begun to wither.-The
New Idea Woman's Magazine for
May.

Boise Odd Fellows Temple,

The dedication ceremonies of the
new Odd Fellows temple at Ninth and
Idaho Strets last night by Ada lodge
No. 8, which occurred the fortieth
anniversary of its institution and the
eighty-ninth anniversary of the order
in this country, were impressive and
beautiful.
The program opened with a few
words of welcome by the noble grand
after which the officers of the Grand
Lodge of Idaho marched into the
room taking their respective stations.
Upon command of the Grand Mar
shall, Frank Martin, an altar was
built for the dedication of the tenn
pie, the heralds being summoned lay
ing the foundation with pure white
block, the emblem of purity, followed
in turn by the three symbolic prin-
ciples of the order, friendship, love
and truth and then with the emblems
of the Encampment, faith, hope and
charity. The proclamation was then
made by the heralds and the altar
draped with the nations flag.
Several hundred people witnessed
the ceremonies in the beautiful hall
which was artistically decorated with
ported plants and cut flowers and
shone with the glare of hundreds OF
electric lights. After the ceremonies
an excellent program was rendered,
the principal features of which were
the violin solo by Master Victor
Christensen and the reading of "Da-
mon and Pythias" by Mrs. Clara Gish
Ewing. The solos by Fred Goodwin
and Mrs. e. J. Phelps were also high
ly entertaining numbers.
Two addresses were made during |
the evening, "Rebekah Oddfellow-
ship" by Frances Crosson, secretary
of the Rebekah State Assembly, and
the anniversary address by Judge ].
F. Ailshie. The musical selections
by Christensen's orchestra the male
quartet and the Bridal chorus of 16 |
voices under direction of Mrs. Clara
Gish Ewing were greatly appreciated.
During the evening A. G. Thomp-
son was presented with a veteran |
jewel, the presentation speech being |
made by Frank Martin. For 25 |
years Mr.. Thompson has been a men,
Der of the order and has ever been
faithful to the principles of Odd Eel

President and Secretary Here.

G. M. Hill president of the Idaho
League of COMMERCIAL Clubs and RI
ley Atkinson, the secretary, were in
the city Monday night in conference
with the officers of the home Club.
The object of the visit was to talk
over matters pertaining to advertis-
ing and statistics. 1t appears that
the bureau of emigration and Stats
tics has not been turning out many
statistics during the last two or three
years and it is proposed to have some
necessary repairs made SO that they
can be used for advertising purposes.

Talk about the temperance agi-

In short time he is disqualified for
work, and has neglected to get the
things he went to town for.
'If the people who handle liquor
were not there, If they were invest

fruits or beef or mutton, their work
would be a blessing instead of a him
