Wonderful Cave at Kuna.

AS result of an investigation of
mammoth cave near Kuna by
United States Surveyor General D.
A. Utter and other prominent en-
gineers of the state on Wednesday,
it is probable that the cave, which
is said to be one of rare beauty in
its formation, will be set aside by
the government for the public use.
This is the recommendation which
will be made by Utter 1t is Gen
eral Utters belief that the cave may
extend a distance of about six miles
underground in which event it would
be by far the largest in the western
country, and one of the largest in
the entire United States. General
Utter will likewise recommend to
the Shriners that they hold their
next big meeting in the cave.

Apostles Punished.

Salt Lake, May 12.-Official an
nouncement was made today by the
council of II apostles of the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
that former Apostle Matthias F.
Cowley had been deprived of the
right and authority to exercise any
of the functions of the priesthood
for INSTRUMENTATION to the govern
ment and discipline of the church.
Mr. Cowley was dropped from the
quorum of apostles several years
ago, being charged with polygamy.
At the same time Apostle John w.
Taylor was also dropped for a ST.
milar reason, but was not deprived
of his priesthood until May of this
year. The taking away of the
priesthood from both these men is
in line with the church authorities
declaration that the practice of
polygamy is not countenanced by the
church and that those who encouy-
age it will be punished.

Breeding New Apples

II experiments which are being
conducted under the direction of w.

partment of agriculture of the state
university are successful, Idaho fruit
men will be enabled to handle a
class of apples which viii combine
all the best qualities of the Ben
Davis, the Jonathan and other we'll
known varieties of apples.
Mr.. Wicks in speaking of the
work which he is doing said:
1--WE are conducting apple breed
ing experiments which will mean a
great deal to the state. We are
using the Ben Davis apple as the
female parent and we are crossing
with the Winesap, Jonathan and
Wagner.
1--WE are doing the work on an ex'
tensive plan and will make from
1000 to 1000 pollinations every
year. We intend to plant the seed
in the green house. By our expert
ments we hope to evolve an apple
which will have the best character
istics of the leading apples of the
state.
"The proposition is one of state
wide importance and is not confin-
ed to any single district. We are
using the money of the government
known as the Adams fund for the
work, and the problem is by far
the most important in research
with which we have had to deal"
