The seven candidates who have been
requested to attend the first meeting
are Isaac Stephenson, S. A. Cook, w.
H. Hatton and E. E. McGCvern, Repub-
licans; Neal Brown and Nj. r. Hoyt,
Democrats, and Jacob Hummel, Social
Democrat.
In order to forestall inJunctions and
other possible obstacles toward meet
ing the expenses of the probe the SEN
ate members of the committee have
introduced a blanket bill to cover all
expenses that may be incurred by the
Investigations. However, Senator
Heir, and others say that this will not
mean the end of their fight against
such expenditures if there is possible
other way to head them off. While
the committee has. until March 10 in
which to report it is expected the find
ings will be returned before that time
or at least that the taking of testi-
mony will he concluded before such
date.
Bill to Amend Primary Law.
OF the many bills that have come
in for amending the primary and cleo
ton laws as a result of the senatorial
tie-up the most unique and what would
be the most deterrent is that intro
duced by Senator Martin, which pro-
vides for graduated tax scale that in,
creases with amazing rapidity. Some
interesting calculations on the basis
of last summers expenses have been
made and show it's fearful possibili-
ties. Thus had the bill been in eff.
feet last year Isaac Stephenson would
have paid 1891 ,O97.41 for the privilege
of complying with the law and filing
his primary election expense account
of 07,793.05. BY the same token, his
rivals in the senatorial race, according
to their accounts filed last October;
would have paid according to the fol-
lowing table:

The rainy weather this week
has been a boon to the farmers
of this section of Idaho and
means many thousands of dollars
to them this fall. The ground
had become pretty dry on the
surface for this season of the
year but the rains have moisten-
ed it up and softened the crusted
ground in the fields of fall wheat,
and, with the cool weather that
has prevailed all spring, condi-
tons are said to be better now
for a large crop than they were
last year. We often hear people
kicking about the weather but it
is a strange fact, nevertheless,
that Camas Prairie usually gets
the weather that is most needed
at the time when it comes in to
the best advantage.

The Manure spreader.

There are not many farm imple-
ments that will pay for themselves
more quickly than a manure spreader.
1t saves labor, but that is not the big
part of the profit. Some men must
hesitate about purchase If 1t means
only a saving of labor. The use OF
the spreader means great increase In
the efficiency Of the farm supply of
manure. Some men cannot see this
point. They say that they get the
manure on the land and that is all
that is necessary. But 1t isn't Ma
nure gives life to a soil even when
the application is light. and it Is poor
policy to give one spot more than Is
needed while another spot is left bare
or to make a heavy application to one
acre and leave another acre without
manure. We now know that it pays
to make the manure go over rela-
lively large acreage. Director Thorne
of the Ohio station has said that eight
loads of manure per acre applied with
spreader have about as great eff
cheney as twelve loads put on roughly
with fork. Every foot gets little of
the material, and the effect is seen in
the sod that follows or the sod to
which the manure is applied. Land
should not have a heavy dressing of
manure when other land in the farm
needs manure. Make the application
light and even, and only a spreader
can do the work well. In the interest
of better sods, which are the life of a
soil, add to the efficiency of the ma
nure by using spreader. Some farm.
ing communities have learned this les
son thoroughly well, while others have
barely awakened to it.

Potatomatoes.

In grating the tomato ON the potato
or the potato on tomato, or in making
any other graft Of similar herbaceous
plants, the simpler methods are pre-
ferred. The saddle graft and splice
graft are the ones most commonly
used. The splice graft is made by
simply cutting the scions a smooth
slanting cut. The stock is cut In the
same way, and the two members are
tied together with their faces Joined.
In order to get the best results it is
desirable to have the CRAFTS made of
rather tender shoots, such as have
only partially hardened. In order to
get a proper union with this sort of
tissue it is necessary that the cut be
made with a very sharp knife, prefer
ably with razor. The two parts are
then rather tenderly Joined together,
using very soft cloth bandages or

THE KING OF FRUITS.
No Other Disputes the Reign OF the
Popular Apple.

No Other Disputes the Reign OF tns
Popular Apple.
Whatever temporary allegiance we
may owe to other fruits in their sea-
son, the apple is the acknowledged
king. The orange, the pear, the Plum
the grape and other products of the
orchard all have their place Of honor
but it is only the apple that Is with
us always. Scarcely have the winter
apples of last season disappeared,
scarcely has the last well preserved
Baldwin been taken from the bottom
of the barrel, when the summer apples
of the new season are ready for eat
ing. And what is more welcome, what
is more fragrant, what Is more lus-
cious to the taste and more beautiful
to the sight than the reddening August
boughs of the summer apple trees?
But. however delightful the summer
and autumn apples may be, their short
life deprives them of the perennial
place In our esteem that we award to
| the balQWlu, tue NOLtAcLA OpS' NHS
Hubbardston, the King and dozens OF
other varieties. Rlpening when the
first SHOWS of winter are imminent, II
they receive their deserved treatment
of a cool habitat in we'll ventilated
cellar they will remain sound and eat
able we'll on toward the opening of an
other apple season. But they as well
as all apples must be well treated. An
expert pomologist has said that apples
should be handled as II they were eggs,
and he is not far from wrong. The
slightest bruise means the instant be-
ginning Of decay, and one rotten apple
can infect an entire barrel. Lovers OF
apples should therefore learn that care
is essential to the preservation of fruit
and that the better they are treated
the longer the store will remain sound
and healthy to meet the demands made
upon it throughout the winter and
spring.

thermore, to cover the grated plant
with bell Jar or hand glass Of some
sort for a few days in order to prevent
too rapid evaporation. If it is left ex.
