BUTTERMILK PAINT.

Among the many uses that butter
milk may be put to is the manufact-
ure of buttermilk paint. The adhesive
qualities of the casein qualities in but
termilk render it very useful in the
making of paint for fences and out
buildings.
The following formula has been
found to give very good results at a
very low cost: One gallon of but
termilk, three pounds of Portland ce-
ment and sufficient coloring matter to
give the desired color The paint
should be applied soon after it is made
and should be stirred a great deal
while painting. One difficulty is that
the cement has a tendency to settle to
the bottom of the bucket unless it is
stirred considerably. The paint re-
quires about six hours for drying
after which time it will shed water
very successfully
A coat of this paint will not only
help to preserve the wood but will
greatly improve the looks of fences,
and outbuildings. Venitian red or
most any other color may be used.
The paint does not give very glossy
surface, so would not be very good
for painting anything on which a fine
finish is desired.
Buttermilk paint has been found to
be good in covering injuries on trees
after pruning. In this case, however,
the amount of cement should be in

In MemOriam.

Whereas, the Great Architect, in His
Infinite wisdom, has seen fit to re-
move from our midst, our beloved
brother, W. l. McElroy, who, after
battling bravely with death, succumbs
ed after a short illness. His COM
handing presence and friendly smiles
will never again adorn our conclaves.
His manly voice is forever silenced.
To our calls there is returned no an
swer, except an echo from the sill
ence-bound shores of eternity. His
post of honor is draped in silence.
Grief, instead of the joy felt in his
presence, is our portion. His life was
made radiant with domestic happiness;
a reputation unblemished; heart full
of sunshine, and free from petty envy
and malice; lofty spirit teeming with
love for his friends and family-traits
which are indelibly engraven on the
tablets of our affections. His body has
left us, but the spirit of his good deeds
lives after him. Therefore be it
Resolved, That the members of Lo-
cal Union, No. 1905, of the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join
ers of America, extend their heart
felt sympathies and coincidence to the
family of our departed brother. To
the bereaved wife and mother our
most profound enumeration is extend
ed. In hours like this, when those
who have long been bound to us by
the most sacred ties, are taken away,
we feel like we too, would prefer to
accompany the loved one on that
final journey through the solemn
shadow of death. But He, who orders
all things, hath other duties, yet, for
us to perform. And we should be con-
forted by the assurance of joining our
loved ones in that other life, where
pain and sorrow are unknown.
He who has departed, is not lost
to us; but merely gone before; and
in that hope of happy reunion, we
trust the afflicted family may find
comfort.

ball game of the season, walking over
the Lewiston Normals eleven after
the fashion of "Ole Sklarson" and his

practice for the varsity boys and they
showed up strong for their weight.
1t took but six minutes for the Idaho
team to cross Lewiston's goal line
after the first whistle blew. Hillman,
Knudson, Perkins, and Burns made big
gains each time. Two more goals were
added to Idaho's score in the second
quarter, Hillman failing to kick goals.
In the third quarter Lewiston scored,
but failed to kick goal. They also
held Lewiston down IN this quarter,
and the home eleven were unable to
cross the goal line. Idaho made three
goals in the last quarter, Hillman

OUR NEXT YEARS CROPS,

Farmers, like most other people, al
vice left on their hands. And while
we do not want to unseemingly add
to this burden, yet we would like to
cite some comparative examples.
This season our experiment station
harvested from 25 to 80 bushels Of
field peas per acre, while a large
neighboring field would not have ex-
ceeded Is bushels. This same station
harvested 70 bushels of oats and
field adjoining the station farm har-
vested only 35 bushels. Doubtless
there were some differences in seed
and the like, but the chief reason was
that the station ground had been
treated to good deep fall blowing,
and the other fields had been spring
plowed before seeding. In general
there are many reasons why fall
blowing is better than spring plow-
ing, but in the cases at hand two rea-
sons stood out prominently. LIST. Fall
blowing offered more time for the
soil to liberate plant food, and I'd;
this loose soil caught, stored and
preserved more moisture than could
pOSSlUly nave D0tu StCuI6u duu ludlu-
tanned by the unbroken soil.
1t takes considerable water to sue
grow and mature crops, and |
the unbroken surface sheds much of |
the winters rainfall, about as much |
more will have to evaporate before
spring blowing can proceed, then fully
as much more will be lost from the
fresh furrow slice. Small yields Ell?

DON'T MUCKRAKE THE BOY +,

What Is Wrong with Our Boys?"
is the rather startling title of an
article by William T. Miller in the
June Misunderstanding, because it
seems to take for granted right at
the outset that they are in a bad
way.
CHANGING hastily through the ar
ticle to discover evidences of their
lapse from their former virtuous
state, we find it stated that the COM
monest strongest and most unpre-
JUDGED criticism at the present time
comes from the field of business
life" Mr.. Miller thus sums it up:
1T is very common for a business
man to complain about the boys that
come into his employment. They
can neither write neatly, spell cor
rectly nor cipher accurately: their
personal habits are none too admir-
able and they have little politeness
or respect for superiors. So say
many large employers of boy labor.
If these statements are all true, sure
ly there is something wrong with the
boys"
Those are indeed hard words and
II the boy were being tried today as
new and original proposition they
might suffice to prejudice the reader
against him. But fortunately tho
American boy has a record OF a
good many years that may rightly
be put In evidence in the case.
And that record, unless our I'm.
preston be greatly wide of tho mark

PROMINENT WOMAN DEAD.

Mrs. Dora Stockton Newport, wife
of John B. Newport of Notus, died
at 10 a. m. Sunday. She had been
ailing for some time, but her death
came suddenly, as she was up and
about the house just a few days be-
fore she died, and seemed better
than usual. Death was caused by
complication of heart trouble and
pneumonia.
Mrs. Newport was the daughter of
H. S. Stockton, one of the Lower
Boise pioneers. She was born in
Missouri in 1872 and came across
the plains with her father when she
was three years old, locating at Par
ma, where she resided until her
marriage to John B. Newport in
1898. A few years ago Mr.. and
Mrs Newport removed to the pres
ent home near Notus, where they
have since resided. She leaves her
husband and three children.
Mr.. and Mrs. Newport have always
been prominent in the social and
business life of the Lower Boise
valley and her loss will be deeply
felt. With her husband and father
she was planning to start in few
days on an automobile trip to Cali.
fornia and Arizona, where they were
to spend the winter in the hope thai
her health would be benefited. The
sympathy of all goes out to her be-
reaved husband and family.-Parma

TRADE CONDITIONS BY DUN's
REVIEW.

The current issue of Dun's Review
says:
Improvement in business sentiment
still holds, but it is more manifest
in the east than in the west, and in
the securities market than in the
principal industries. There is, how
ever, to be noted some expansion in
the demand for cotton goods, retail
trade in particular showing more
activity, and the hope is expressed
that the limit of curtailment of pro-
duction has been reached. Larger
sales are noted in the shoe trade and
leather and hides are more active
In iron and steel a decided cut is
made in the price of steel bars and
there are further concessions in the
prices of pig iron. This has had
an unsettling effect, not only in the
iron and steel trade, but to some ex-
tent in business generally. Crop
prospects continue to improve and
this fact constitutes the strongest
basis for the future in a gradual ex-
pansion of industrial activity as the
year advances. Meanwhile the banks
keep piling up additional cash re.
serves, and their capacity for credit
expansion is greater than for many
years, while the admission of trust
companies into the New York Clear
ing House strengthens the financial
situation to an extent that is scarcely
appreciated, but which makes this
one of the most important banking
developments in years. While rail-
road earning during two weeks of
May increased 4 per cent as COM
pared with last year, bank clearings
this week made substantial gains,
the increases being 10 per cent over
1909 outside New York, and IL and
9.S per cent respectively in New
York. In all the leading industries
the growth of export trade is still a
striking and favorable feature of the
situation; and, again, in New York,
during the last week, the exports ex-
ceeded the imports, though that is

he has furnished the greater part Of
the impeccable parents, sociological
critics, pedagogical experts and un.
married onlookers who today look
on the boy with sadness when they
discover that he has many of the
little peculiarities that they also had
in their youth and who wonder II
it will ever be possible to save him
from some awful catastrophe.
Remembering these things, we
should say that the boy of today
has been greatly embe,lished, even
from the beginning, with a good deal
of criticism from his superiors along
the general lines of that just quot
ed 1t has always been the err
ceptional boy who always took time
to spell correctly, cipher accurately
and write neatly And there has
never been a time when someone
could not be found to deplore his
pertness and his failure to wash
carefully behind his ears.
And yet, if we look at the history
OF the country, we will find that the
American boy has managed to yindi-
cate himself fairly well in the long
run In spite of the very imper-
fections that are found In the bovs
OF today, he has grown up into the
father of boys, the supporter of a
family, and the respectable, indus
lrious citizen. 1t may seem strange
but he certainly has done 1t.
He has not only done all that. but
would probably continue the tradi-
lions OF his kind. The main thing
the matter with him is being n how
