CARNATIONS TO BE DISTRIBUTED

Affair.

The object of Mothers Day, which

To remind men and women who
are away from home, and have for
the time being taken it for granted
that mother is happy, of the unset
fish devotion, and love which
mother displayed during their boy
hood or girlhood days and the
great debt of love they owe that
self-same mother.
1t is day when every man in
Boomers Ferry should feel proud
to honor the memory Of his mother,
whether living or dead, and spend
at least one hour of the day in re-
Election. at the close of which, il
mother be living, letter filled
with tender words of appreciation
and love be written her.
1t is the earnest desire of Rev.
Moore of the Methodist church that
every man and every woman in
Boomers Ferry take an active in
terest in making mother feel that
in their hearts she is the Queen OF
the May.
With that thought in view there
will be special Mothers Day SER
vice held in the Methodist chnrch
at IL o'clock next Sunday at which
time old familiar hymns will be
sung, together with special music
by the choir. The address will be
in keeping with the thought of the

carnations, the emblem of Mother'i
Day, will be furnished by the

A Correction

A paragraph referring to w. E.
Daggett state land agent as having
jurisdiction over the Northern dis
tript of the state, in IN article on
State money, has caused some con-
fusion. We wish to correct the
statement to the effect that the
several counties of the state are
now supervised by land appraisers
and w. A. Alexander is in charge
of Latah, Shoshone and Bonner
counties. Anyone wishing to make
a loan on lands should apply to the
appraiser in charge of his county.

IMPORTANCE OF FIRE PROTECTION
Little LeaAet is Being Distributed
Throughout Northwest.

To educate the younger generation
to the importance of forest pro tee
ton and also enlist its aid in bring
ing the subject before the parents,
a striking illustrated leafet on the
forest fire evil is being placed in
the hands of almost every school
child on the Pacific coast by the
Western Forestry & Conservation
Association. Probably no single
piece of printed matter has ever
had equal circulation in the west,
for arrangements are already made
for the distribution OF 100000 in
Oregon, Washington. Idaho and
Montana The project has the en-
dorsement of the state authorities,
who are cooperating in its distribu-
ton before the spring school term
closes. On one cover the leahet
has a colored picture of a settlers
home being destroyed by ames; on
the other a forest scene where fire
has not occurred. The text consists
of questions and answers concern,
ing needs and methods of saving
life and property from forest fire
destruction.

Methods Of Destroying Flies.

The breeding places of flies, horse
manure and other filth, can be
treated with a liberal supply of
lime, which will be effective in
destroying the eggs and maggots of
this insect. This cuts them off at
the source. The adult flies can be
poisoned when they gain entrance
into the house by using liquids
charged with formalia or arsenic,
or to be trapped in screen cages.
The tangle-foot fly paper is good
when fresh. but better still is a
small wire paddle that can be used
to strike the insects while they are
at rest Any method is good that
accomplishes the work. The main
thing is to kill them and safeguard
the home against infections carried
by this dangerous pest.

Quay Statue Without a Rival.

Massachusetts, is not in the habit of be-
ing dstanced by any of her sister States
in matters of public spirit, but it looks as
though she were going to let Pennsylva-
MIA retain the 'record" in the matter of
statues. At hearing before committee
of the Massachusetts Legislature such
strong opposition was manifested by vet
eran officers of the civil war and others
to the proposal that the State erect
statue to Ben Butler that we are inclined
to think the project will be abandoned.
This will leave the QUAY statue in the
Harrisburg capitol without a rival 1t
must be confessed, however, that even if
Massachusetts were to proceed with the
Butler statue there would be some ele-
ments wanting in the case to make out
thorough parallel with the immortaliza-
ton of the Pennsylvania statesman. But
Ter was never accused of having appro-
priated to his own use public funds of
which he was the custodian; and, further
more, the erection Of the statue might be
supposed, however mistakenly, to be a
tribute earned by his services as general
in the great war. In Quay's case it could
only be regarded as an acknowledgment
OF his preeminent qualities in the working
OF the Pennsylvania Machine, and will
stand unmistakably as memorial to tu-
ture generations of the civic standards of
Pennsylvania lawmakers at the beginning
OF the twentieth century. However the
proposal to erect statue to Ben Butler is
quite worthy of the impudence which was
one of the chief assets of that undeniably
shrewd and clever demagogue-Mev
York E0ening Post.

Seeks Limit to Reciprocity.

Ottawa, March I6.-Abrogation of
favored nation agreements affecting Can
ada will be sought from the British govern
ment by Sir Wilfrid Laurier at the imperial
conference in London mex; May. Before
the British colonies became commercial
factors in the world the British govern
ment bound itself and all lis dependencies
to trade agreements in which the favored
nation principle was involved These
agreements still bind Canada to give favor
ed nation treatment to Argentina. Austria
Hungary Bolivia, Columbia, Denmark,
Russia, Spain, Sweden, Venezuela and
Switzerland, and all Of these countries
will come in for the tariff reduction which
Canada is making under the reciprocity
agreement with the United States
The trade with these countries is small
and is not likely to grow to considerable
proportions. However, the agreements
are regarded as restrictions upon Canada's
fiscal liberty and their abrogatlon, SO far
as Canada is concerned, will be pressed.
