Every living plant in the field is n

writes an anonymous writer. These
plant pumps do not work on exactly
the same principle as the common
suction OF lifting pump, but they do
The work just the same. Their power
Of working is through capillary action.
The same power that draws oil up
through the lamp wick and that makes

plant, every wild flower and weed, all
shrubs. bushes and vines, and all trees
are steadily at work during the sum-
ner n more or less at other seasons
pumping up the waterway and night
from the ground in watch they grow.
Some of this water is used by the
plants themselves for their growing
needs, yet much of it is allowed tC
pour cut of a thousand little sprouts
rom each plant, which instead of fall
ing back upon the soil to be reabsorbed
Is transformed into a very thin wa
ter vapor and floats away in the air

and in some other place. All Of this
pumping is invisible to our gross
vision, but the amount OF water lifted

Now that we have been asked the

farm sheep thirteen grown animals
IAN be psstured on an acre, and one
acre Of alfalfa. counting our tons OF
hay for the year, will winter twenty
sheep. This hay land will also furnish
pasture in the spring while the
meadow is getting a start, and also In
the fall, when the aftermath is on.
These two acres one OF hay and n
Of pasture, will keep an average Of
sixteen and one-half, or, say, sixteen
sheep the whole year, or eight TO each
acre and an income OF 81 for each
sheep makes s32 for the acre. Another
Thing, these sheep harvest their own
.rOD on three out Of every five acres.
Now, every farmer knows 1t costs

sheep are Of the greatest convenience.

A BOosTER's club was recently
organized in Idaho Falls which
has for its purpose the boosting
of that thriving city, as the name
may well imply To demon
strate the spirit for which it was
formed, the club last week pur-
chased a piece of ground COM
prising 100 acres for which they
paid $4,000, for the purpose OF
es tablishing a park and public
amusement ground. In COM
m enting on the purchase Of
this land the Idaho register says:
1t was the Seattle spirit Which
built up one Of the greatest cities
in the country.
II is the general spirit OF the
optimist which has developed
from the great American desert
the most fertile. lands of the
nation
1t has been the Idaho Falls
spirit which has built the best
city i'll the entire section. 1t
will be q continuation of that
same spirit which will promote
the enterprise now presented,
the providing OF city park
and recreation grounds.
Do not meet the proposition
with objections but get in and
boost. You are needed.
The club at present consists
of fifteen members, but every
man, woman and child is asked
to join and in so doing boost
Idaho Falls. Not one of the
officers of the club or anyone
connected with it can draw a
salary, or in any direct financial
manner be benefited oy its or
