under the provisions of our state
constitution school lands can not be
sold for less price than $40 per
acre, and it Is therefore apparent
to all that the school lands OF my
state can not be successfully sold,
even at the minimum price, in COM
potion with those included in Carey
Act or government projects.
Sand even if the lieu-land selec-
tons could be sold at the minimum
price, the school fund would unduly
and unjustly suffer, because many
of the school sections which have
been included within the national
forests are covered with valuable
merchantable timber, the stumpags
value of which, in some cases, has
been estimated at from $25, 900 to
$4,000 per section, 1t was evil
IDENTIFY the intention of Congress in
making the original grant that these
values, whatever they might be,
should inure to the benefit of the
school fund of the state of Idaho;
otherwise the grant never would
have been made.
Subsequent legislation, execn-
tive action, and the decisions of our
courts, all unforeseen contingencies,
have made it impossible to carry
out this intention, and the legisla-
ton in this bill. proposed is designed
to, and as a matter OF fact will,
meet all the exigancies of the case.
1t has the unequivocal Endorsement
of the Secretary of Agriculture and
the favorable report of the Con-
mittee on Public Lands, and, !
sincerely trust, will meet the
approval of this House"

Sinking Spells

AT the time / began taking
DIR. Miles Heart Remedy l was
having sinking spells every few
days. My hands and feet would
get cold; I could scarcely
breathe, and could feel myself
gradually sinking away until 1
would be unconscious. Those
about me could not tell there
was life in me. After these
spells / would be very weak and
nervous, sleepless and without
appetite; had neuralgia in my

disappeared and in a few weeks

Constipated all His Life
Now Cured Trial Free

One of the most harrassing of trou
bles, though fortunately not fatal, is
constipation, and millions of people
suffer with it from infancy to old age.
'lts cause may be traced to any one of
dozen different circumstances of
diet, environment and even birth.
Millions are practically born with
constipation. Had they used intelligent
methods at the beginning perhaps they
would have found relief, but they had
the usual misfortune of bad advice.
They tried dieting, stewed fruits, then
laxative waters, then pills and various
other cathartcs, and so in the end
made matters worse. But there is still
hope, even for the seemingly hopeless.
Have you ever tried DR.. Caldwelrs

market for many years and is as staple
in the households of those who know

Just now while the peanut is the
chief topic of discussion in city ana

be peanut famine this winter in this
part of the South.
The New Orleans Item tells OF the
troublesome times brewing in that
city, as follows:
New Orleans is without adequate
stocks to supply the needs of its gu
ber-eating citizens. Winter without
hot roasted peanuts! Can anything
imaginable be more calamitous in pro-
portion?
With only the sadly depleted stocks
of the old crop on hand and no relief
in sight, it may be but matter of days
before the steaming roaster and the
musical-voiced vendor will disappear
from Canal street corners.
THE only peanuts now in the mar
ket." said Mr.. Jake Stitch in referring
to the threatened stringency, are old
crop stock. The fancy grades OF these
are bringing 5 1-2 cents a pound and
+ 10 cents is being paid for second
grade goods.
