lature is clear and forcefuI. He has
carefully studied conditions in Idaho
ana We are convinced that there is mn
man IN the state who is better inform
ed imam Governor Brady, on matters
aneeting Idaho, The Governor insists
that the promises of the party be
rlgldly carried out. He insists upop a
county local option law, a direct nr,-
mary law and a general utility COM
mission. These are the three nrinci-
PAL measures promised by the Repub-
icdhs III the campaign, either by the
platform promises or the pledges Of
the candidates Other matters are
discussed and urged by the governor
The Tribune is opposed to either a
direct primary law or general utiIi-

PRETTY GOOD MEN.

For several years the Democrats
controlled the administration of pub
lie affairs in Idaho. The silver craze
put the Republicans out of business
for time. But when the Republicans
again regained control, they gave the
people such a clean administrator
that ever since the people have en-
trusted them with the conuroI u sLaue
affairs. Governor Morrison was elect
ed, and so many beneficial measures
were due to him that, although he
was not re-noimnated, the people Of
Idaho still point with pride to his ad-
ministration. He was succeeded by
Governor Gooding. Mr.. Gooding has
acted as chief executive of the state
for four years. The Tribune freely
confesses that it favored the re-nomi-
nkatlon of Governor Morrison. The
Republicans thought different, and
we bowed to their will. Mr.. Morrison
gave the people good, clean admin
istration. He is one of the best and
brightest men in Idaho. Governor
Gooding did well. He is honest, ca
pable, forceful and determined. Gov
ernor Gooding had hard row to hoe.
Perhaps nowhere in the Union has
any man been up against a worst
proposition than Governor Gooding.
He did his duty. This reflects we'll
upon himself and his party. He is
succeeded by Hon. James H. Brady.
Mr.. Brady will do as well as his pre-
decessors. He has the ability and
courage.
The Tribune does not at this time
desire to pay tribute to either Nor
rison, Gooding, or Brady. We do not
want to remind the people of Idaho
that the Republicans have furnished
and are furnishing pretty good men.
The people will probably remember
the last Democratic administration
There were no scandals. Since there
nave been none. The Republicans
have sent Hepburn and Borah to the |
senate. The Democrats sent Dubois
ana Heltfeldt. The Republicans
made Morrison, Gooding and Brady
governors. The Democrats made
Hunt governor. The Republicans
brought forth big men. The Demo-
Gratis brought forth weak men. The
Republicans have at heart the good of |
the people. We do not know of what
the Democrats are thinking. One of
the brightest and most capable men
In Idaho is Hon. B. f. ONeil of Wal
lace He is entitled to have senator
ial aspirations, and some day he will
occupy seat in the United States
senate from Idaho. But with a whole
some generosity he gracefully yielded
20 senator Hepburn this year. This

Grand Summary-JOnathan.


It is very apparent from the above
tables that the benefits derived from
spraying with dust were of very little
moment compared with the benefits
. accompanying liquid spraying. Since
the actual percentage of clean fruit
in the picked crop is the important
part of fruit growing, particular at
tention should be paid to these fig
ures. The Jonathans affected by the
codling moth in the dust plats ranged
between 1922 and 1905 per cent and
between 625 and 12.4S per cent in the
fquid plats. In other words, under
the state laws between 1882 and 3d.
rs per cent of the apples from the
liquid plats could have been marketed
while in the dust plats only between
6O.95 and 77.7S per cent were salable.
Turningto the consideration Of scab
affected apples, the number OF salable
apples is again very much reduced In
the dust plats, while in the liquid
plats this reduction is so slight that
it becomes practically unworthy of
notice. With the Ben Davis variety
the results are about the same as with
the Jonathan variety, so far as cod
ling moth is concerned, although scab
was not as prevalent. Experience
with these two varieties demonstrated
that dust spraying was much less eff
f1cient than the liquid method.
Since scab developed to a very
slight extent the results did not show
the lime and sulphur sprays to be Of
any decided advantage over the Bor-
deaux mixture as a fungicide. How
ever, what little evidence is shown is
in favor Of the former sprays.
Judged from the point Of view Of
the number Of applications OF spray
necessary to control the codling moth
the data seems to indicate that three
applications Of arsenicals give better
results than fewer applications and
also that three applications give equal
results to a greater number OF spray
ings.

ty, but it was found necessary to put
down another in order that there
should be sufficient qauntity to sup
ply the needs of the city, consequent
ly another contract was let but when
the last well reached the depth of 116
feet the first we'll ceased to flow, con-
sequently the second was continued

ground and piled them in boxes so
that records were impossible to OBJ
tain. All record trees were thinned
July 21st and oath in such a manner
that only one apple was left on a
spur. The final picking of Jonathans
was made October Goth and 21st,
while the Ben Davis were picked on
October 18th. The yields of picked
apples were fairly satisfactory with
the Jonathan variety but the Ben Da-
Wis gave only a small number of ap-
pies. While many trees of the former
variety gave 500 or more apples the
latter variety seldom exceeded 100.
The Jonathan apples we're of excel
lent color and quality and would av-
erage close to packing in a four tier
pack.
From these records figures were
compiled and the percentage of worms
and scab affected fruit determined.
The following tables show these per-
centages for both the picked crop and
the total crop which includes both
the windfallen and picked apples. The
figures here shown are taken from the
larger orchard of the two and repre-
sents the general results secured. La
ter reports will show the results of
the smaller orchard also.

APPLYING THE SPRAYS.
Dust Plats.

The aim of the work in applying
the dust was to select days on which
the air was still and to make the
applications early in the morning
when dews might cause the material
to adhere to the trees. May 18th was
quiet but the morning Of June 5th
was somewhat windy. June 10th and
August 9Th were warm and still while
there was slight breeze blowing on
september I'd. With the exception of
the applications OF dust made on June
10th and September I'd, the work was
completed before a. m. In the case
OF June 10th 1t was done In the fore
noon after Z a. m. while In case of
September I'd 1t was done in the after
noon.
Thorough applications of both
liquid and dust sprays were made at
each spraying. the object being to
touch everything possible with the
material.
