this they are ready end willing
to trade the Mormon question.
Here is Dubois great oppor-
tunity. AS a trader he is the
real candy, and if the condition
as outlined really exists in Idaho
county, there is no doubt Of Du-
bois' ability to control the
Grangeville county convention.
This is true because he will trade
anything with anybody to at
tain his end.
Taken by fore and large, there
is positive assurance that two of
the hottest conventions in the
history OF Democracy in Idaho
will be held at Twin Falls and
Wallace this year. The fur will

The Twin Falls Salmon River
land opening will take place at
Twin Falls next Monday. Regi-
stration OF applicants for the
lands began the first of the week,
and on the first day more than
400 names were recorded and
given numbers emitting them to
participate in the drawing, to
take place Monday. tits thought
that there will be quite 5000
names on the list of participants
by that day. A special train has
left Chicago for Twin Falls, bear
ing a number of bankers, heads
of bonding concerns and capital
lists. A number of Pullman and
dining cars will be brought to
Twin Falls to provide accommo-
dations for the crowd.

FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1908.

The Idaho-Nevada Southern
Railway, to start from Gooding
and run to Wells, Nevada, was
incorporated last week, with II.
S. HOLSTER, president, and a list
of officers whose names are an
assurance that the road will be
promptly built. The distance
from Gooding to Wells is said to
be 100 miles. In another year
southern Idaho people may reach
San Francisco with "a hours less
travel. We hope, however, this
cutoff will not retard the con-
struction of the proposed line
from Caldwell to Winnemucca.

DUBOIS A TRADER.

Political dopesters from the
Panhandle are disseminating the
information that the score stands
nip to tuck in the contest to
wrest control of the Democratic
party of Idaho from Fred T. Du-
bois. The statement is made
that honors are even at this
writing, and that everything de-
ponds on Idaho county, one of
the largest counties in the state
in point of acreage, but one of
the smallest in point of popula-
tion and political Importance.
Returns from Idaho county's
Democratic primaries indicate an
even break as between Dubois
and his enemies. Thegreat Nor
mon-eater's strength in that
county appears to come from the
country precincts, among the
wheat raisers and cattlemen, who
are prepared to demand that the
Democratic state convention at
Wallace adopt a railroad COM
mission plank. They want rate
regulation and plenty ofcars and

A GOOD DAIRYMAN,

Our readers can readily realize
that If dairyman can make it pro
fitable to pursue the industry n Can
ada, where the winters are logger
and outside of the corn belt, il
ought to be more so here in the corn
belt with shorter winters. Writing
to the Canadian Dasryman one of lis
dairy patrons says.

requires too much labor 1 find that
silage gave me as good results and
that it is easier to feed. / grow
about an acre of sugar 5eets each
year to feed to the hogs. No per
son who grows corn is well equip
ped unless he has some kind of
power on the farm. On my farm
the dairy work is always given first
attention. We start feeding at five
o'clock and are through by six
o'clock.
sit is seven years this spring since
started dairy farming and / am

me that during the last five years,
my Ia to 16 COWS have averaged me
$50 each for cream alone The re-
turns from skimmilk and calves can
be added to that My hogs have
averaged $500 a year.
During the past five years. I have
sold s562.45 worth of grain and bought
s414 worth of bran, shorts and oil
cake, leaving balance of s158 in my
favor. On my 100-acre farm, my
cows have returned me an average OF
$3.50 each year and my hogs, $500.

ployed in cultivation. Clover acts a.
a silent force or body that distributes
certain gases that make the soil porus,
thereby allowing free circulation OF
the air and gases around the roots
of the plants. This action OF the
air and water enables the plants to
gather nitrogen from the air and
while decasing furnish fertilizlng anu
renovatin@ qualities for future use,
AnotheN important problem that
clover solves is that of helping erads-
cate weeds that would otherwise con-
sumo the fertility of the soil. The
clover plant when well started pre-
vents even a start of weeds ans
establishes a mulch that prevents the
escape of fertility from the soil.
There are few farms but what neei
clover on certain portions to renovate
and improve the physical condition
of the soil.
Glover roots go deep into the

of mineral plant food from below

profitable advantage. Not only is this
true but other plants send down feed
