POINTS REGARDING THE CENSUS

The census begins April Is and
must be completed in two weeks in
cities and in thirty days in all other
areas.
The enumerators will wear badge
inscribed United States Census,
1910"
The law requires every adult per-
son to furnish the prescribed infor-
nation, but also provides that 1t shall
be treated confidentially, so that no
injury can come to any person from
answering the questions.
The President has issued q procla-
nation, calling on all citizens to CO.
operate with the Census and assuring
them that it has nothing to do with
taxation, army or jury service, COM
pulsory school attendance, regulation
of immigration, or enforcement of
any law, and that no one can be in
jured by answering the inquiries.
1t is of the utmost Importance that
the census of population and agricul-
ture in this state be complete and
correct.
Therefore every person should
promptly, accurately, and completely
answer the Census questions asked by
the enumerators. 43-2

GOVERNOR A FIREMAN
Yields the Coal Scoop on LOcOmo-
tive While on Trip to the
Panhandle

Echange-
1t is doubtful if any other COVER
nor than the chief executive of Idaho
ever fired a locomotive. Governor
Brady had that unique experience
week before last on the Spokane In
ternational railway. A freight train
was wrecked ahead of the train on
which the governor was making a
visit to the Panhandle, the wreck de-
laying traffic for ten hours. The
governor, who saw an engine stand
ing on the main line ahead of the
wreck, climbed into the cab and after
a great deal of persuasion, prevailed
on the engineer to carry him to Bon
ner's Ferry. He explained that he
was billed to speak at the ferry and
that great deal depended upon his
being in time. The engineer was will
ing, but explained that he had no
fireman, whereupon the governor
volunteered to man the scoop and act
in the capacity of a knight of the
firebox and coal heap. He pulled off
his coat, grabbed the shovel and toss
ed coal for the entire trip.

HOW FARMERS HURT THEM
SELVES

Fruit Grower
The Fruit-Grower's poultry depart
ment this month tells of an inyesti-
cation by the Kansas Experiment Sta
ton which developed that the farm
ers Of that state lose about a million
and a half dollars every year because
some of their number, together with
some country merchants, do not
handle eggs properly. On account of
the loss sustained by the buyers, caus-
ed by this improper handling, the
buyers discount this loss and pay
about cents dozen less for eggs
than they would ii all were of proper
grade. All farmers, therefore, suffer
because of the carelessness or ignor-
ance of few.
Last month we published letter
from Charles c. Bell, Missouri fruit
grower, who is now in Europe. He
reports that poor grading and pack
ing of American apples in injuring,
and even destroying, the German
markets for our fruits. Some growers
and packers, of course, handle apples
,properly-but some do not, and the
entire apple industry suffers.
And so it goes. Prices are made
to allow for poor stuff. Markets are
closed because of poor produce being
sold. 1t would be proper, of course,
for those responsible for these con-
ditions to suffer the penalty, but the
facts are that the good suffer with
the bad, and the entire industry is
affected.
What's the remedy?
First, fruit-growers should organ
lie strong associations which will care
fully grade and pack fruit, and which
will establish a reputation for the
character Of its goods, and will main
tain it at all times.
Second, everyone interested in
marketing fruits should also be inter-
ested in legislation which will prevent
the marketing of low-grade stuff, ex-
cept where it is properly marked as
to its grade.

FINAL PROOF IS RENDERED

The old ruling of the department
of the interior to the effect that every
irrigable acre of desert entry must
be watered before patent is issued,
has been overthrown by a decision in
the case of the United States VS..
Alonzo B. Cole arising in the Durango
Colo, district but which is of far
reaching importance in its effect as to
principle upon lands in Idaho.
Assistant Secretary Pierce holds
that where the cultivation and irri-
cation of one-eighth of the land, the
ownership of water right and the
delivery of water in canals to the
land is shown, final proof will be &C
cepted.

LIVE STOCK MARKET REPORT
Portland, Ore, April 8, 10

Portland. Ore, April 9, 1910
Gentlemen:
Receipts at the Portland Union
took Yards April 9th have been:
Cattle 2444, calves 70, hogs 1899,
sheep 1853 and horses 80.
The general tone of the market is
steady. Cattle have been strong to
high with few loads of extra quail
ity selling at higher prices than have
heretofore been given.
The sheep market has been steady
to high in all grades. A few sheared
sheep are now coming into market
and where they have shown quality
they have brought good prices.
The hog market while still high
has eased off slightly. Tops are SELL
ing from 81. 90 to $11.15 while there
is a tendency to pay under the lie
mark for anything that is not first
class.
Cattle buyers are looking for
cheaper prices when the grass cattle
run begins and from country reports
there will be quite an Offering of
warmed up grass cattle that are thin
in flesh. There is some inquiry for
stOckers and feeders and while good
hay fed animals will not show lower
prices 1t is reasonable to expect that
a lower range of value will apply
when the grass cattle run begins.

Human Race Will Die Out

How the world s population viii grad

Doctor Koch of tuherculin bacillus fame.
His theory will shortly be published in
full by Adolph Zimmerman, a scientist
who was in Doctor Koch s confidence
Herr Zimmerman says that Doctor Koch
explained in conversations with him
that the world 5 birth rate VIII gradu-
ally dwindle to nil, so that the human
race viii extinguish itself through sheer
repugnance to perpetuating itself.
Doctor Koch developed his idea thus
"The birth rate of all civilized peo-
pie first remains stationary, then de-
elnes when certain stage of progress
is reached, or rather when they have
become really prosperous. This is a
sure sign of degeneration. It is the be-
ginning of the end. The human race
must disappear if women become re-
luctaut to rear children. I consider it
is by no means impossible that human
beings will at some future time disap-
pear from the earth because children

NIGHTINGALE'S SONG

VIENNA, July 16.-The highest court
of appeal in the Austrian empire, after
months of litigation, has decided that
the song of a nightingale is not a
nuisance.
\ citizen Of Gratz. Herr Helmet
keeps nightingale in cage and on
fine nights hangs it outside the window.
A neighbor complained to the police
authorities that the bird 5 song disturb
ed his slumbers, and the municipality
ordered the owner of the nightingale to
keep it inside the house at night. Herr
Helmet appealed against this order to
the government of Stvria and then TO
the ministry of the interior. but bot
these administrative authorities refused
to interfere with the decision of the
municipality.
Undismayed by the costs incurred
Herr Helmet then appealed to the court
Of administration, which has inrisdic-
ton over the highest executive and al
ministrative functionaries. Five iudqes
including the president. Baron Schenlx
gave learned judgment in favor Of the
owner of the nightingale on grounds
which amounted TO saving that the sono
