ADrIt 18Th Arber Day.

County Supt. d. W. Parker, in
accordance with the prOclama-
ton of the Governor. has desig
mated April IS as Arbor and Bird

The proclamation Of Governor
Brady is as follows:
ARBOR DAY PROCLAMATION
One of the most significant at
tributes of our higher civiliza tion
is the love of humanity for all
beautiful things. The greatest
nations Of the earth in their
prosperity have turned their at
tention to the perfecting of beau
t1ful works OF art, and especially
t 0 architecture and landscape
gardening The historical build
ings and castles OF the Old World
are lent their greatest charm by
the beauty of the surrounding
trees and shrubbery and flowers.
In America today vast sums
are being spent annually by mu-
inequalities and the general gov
ernment in beautifying the
streets and highways, and IN the
establishment of parks where the
people may have an opportunity
to rest and enjoy themselves.
Idaho's resources and the
wonderful progress being made
by its people are fast becoming
household words in the east.
Every year thousands of peo-
pie come to investigate and to
stay ami become OF us and /
a factor in the states great |
development. We should make
our farms and cities, our homes
and schoolhouses and churches
as attractive to them as our
picturesque streams and noun
taihs. The Legislature Of Idaho,
with far seeing wisdom, h S
provided for the setting apart OF
day in each of the counties by
he county uperintendent OF
public Instruction, to be dedica-
ted to the appropriate observ-
ance of Arbor Day. |, therefore,
recommend that the citizens OF
each county observe the day des-
ignated by the county superin-
tendent by planting trees and
shrubbery and seeds, and by ed
ucational and other exercises OBJ
serve the spirit of the custom.
In testimony whereof, / have
hereunto set my hand and caus-
ed the great seal of the state of
| Idaho to be affixed. Done at the
Capital in the state Of Idaho this
9th day of February in the year
of our Lord One Thousand Nine
Hundred and Ten.

the case of the Irish green and
the English red, a very violent
positive and negative. How
ever, we in Oakley are less posi-
tive about the value of negative
food than against the negative

on house and contents is about So, 900

Arsenote of Lead For
Peach Tuig Borer.

The peach twig borer was rather
severe in its damages to the peach in
Colorado the past spring and summer.
While many small twigs were killed,
still the greater injury was in the loss
from gummy and wormy fruit latter in
the season.
Many inquiries have come to the
Colorado Experiment Station in regard
to the control of this insect next year.
In Bulletin No. 119, of the Colorado
Experiment Station, Mr.. E. P. Taylor.
at that time field entomoIogist for the
station. reported upon the comparative
values of lime-sulphur mix tnre and
arsenate of lead as indicated by test
that he carried through in the orchards
at Grand Junction and Palisade. in 1906,
for the control of this insect.
Lime-sulphur mixture, in the proper
tion of 10 pounds of lime to Is pounds
of sulphur and so gallons of water, was
thoroughly sprayed upon the trees just
as the pink tips of the buds were be-
ginning to show. Thirty-eight trees
were used in the experiment. On these
trees, by careful counting, Mr.. Taylor
found that an average of only 4.23
twigs became infected. Arsenate of
lead, 10 pounds to 100 gallons Of water,
was used at the time upon SO trees,
and as result an average of but LIS
infected twigs per tree could be found.
The check trees, 18 in number, without
any treatment, gave an average Of
AZ. 10 infested twigs Ler tree.
The spring brood of this insect infects
the buds and tender growing shoots;
the later brood attacks the fruit. As
in the case of the codling moth, kill the
first brood and 30 prevent the second.
A knowledge Of the above facts
should save peach growers thousands of
dollars on next years crop.
Only one treatment was used in any
case. A very fine spray should be ap-
piled and made to cover erery part and
particle of thu bark on the limbs. Do
not use enough to make it run do~n
around the tree. G. p. GILLETTE,

collins.

We are all looking for shade the
best of it.
Only silly young girls elope. Widows
never do.
Do not waste time airing grievances
or making excuses. Life is short.
If we were hen we would lay eggs
now while they are cents apiece.

it were not for the trouble of growing

A $500. 1000 restaurant trust has in

The trouble with most of us is that
we haven't sense enough to take care
of money when we get it.
Some people look so constantly for
something to find fault with that their
faces get twisted like corkscrews.
We haven't seen any of those $40
gold pieces lately with "In God We
Trust" left off. P. S.-Nor any other
kind.
Next to newspapers the class of ad-
vertising that pays the best interest
upon the investment is wedding invita-
tions.
This is our New Year resolution: Eat
less, no booze, head cool, feet warm,
mouth shut, and initiate our nickel into
two-bits.
There is this much to the credit of
the widow who is going to try it again.
She has at least waited until her hus-

and prove it.
Borrowing money to tide over finan-
cial pinch is some like drowning sorrow
