Only 81 years have passed
away since the infant state. which

family of full grown American com
monwealths on July 3. 1899 But in
all material elements of prosperity
it has been a striking example of the
swift development of the Pacific

Napoleon the Great said of the
word impossible: Don't name that
beast of a word to me- There are no
impossibilities.
There are mFny NaDOleOns OF
development among the settlers and
pioneers of Idaho. Failure and inn
/ possibility are not in their vocab-
ulary Their indomitable energy
enterprise and optimism are among
the human causes that have taken
advantage of the superior natural
resources to push Idaho up to a
high standing among the younger
states
'Take, for example. the reclama-
ton of arid land through irrigation
The national government has pro
NOTED gigantic systems of recIama-
ton. Private parties are working out
other projects of irrigation. The twt
have set a pace for other states
Eventually the $4,000 square miles
of the state will be covered with {

Mesopotamia.

The progress made on these levels
of life is the strongest reason fo
believing that the advance Of Idaho
in the future will go on at an ever
more rapid rate than in the past.

DEER AND PARTRIDGE ARE pLENTl-

EARLY FOR DEER
Many Local Sporismen Will Wait Until the
'eason Is Farther Advanced Several
Accidents.

The season for deer and partridge
opened last Sunday. October 10 In the
upper peninsula OF Michigan, and with
II was the annual exodus Of many
hunters trom all parts of the district
to the woods, in quest'of the game that
the law allows. In anticipation OF a
great rush for licenses during the next
few weeks County Clerk Wall has
laid IN large supply, and. as is his
custom, has named his deputies In
every township who are permitted to
issue license to hunt deer.
In the opinion of most Crystal Falls
sportsmen, it is too early for successful
deer hunting and many OF them have
decided to wait until the season is far
ther advanced before taxing out their
licenses Comparatively few licenses
have been issued from the county
clerks office TO date, but it is expected
that there will be more OF a rush next
week. As the license expires twenty
i've days after issue. hunters do not

have arranged to hunt, and the exper-

will have better success little later.

first chance in the hunting grounds.

to be "A good many partridge in the
woods. but the fiocks are wilder than
usual at the opening of the season. As
the woods are dry and there is still
foliage on the trees, bird
hunting is more difficult than it would
be later provided no hunting was be-
ing done now. With the woods full of
hunters. however. il will be but short
time until the fiocks are 30 scattered

Peat Resources Remain Latent

The great peat deposits of the United
States seem destined to remain an un.
developed resource. at least for some
time to come. not through any effort
at conservation. but because OF ignor-
ance of their practical value. Accora.
ing to Charles A. Davis in an advance
chapter on the production OF peat from
mineral resources of the United States
for 1910. which is issued by the United
states geological survey, noteworthy
progress was made in 1910 in the pro-
duction of peat fuel in other countries
than the United States not only in the
quantity actually marketed but also in
methods OF production and utilization.
In this country. however, although II
is generally known that there are large
quantities OF material good for fuel In
the peat Logs and swamps of the north
ern and eastern parts OF the country.
but little progress has been made in |
developing this resource on a CONNER |
cial scale
In commenting on the growing use
OF peat in Europe, Mr.. Davis refers 20 |
Its vaine as a GAS producer, the result.
ing producer gas having a recognized
high value for fuel and power. In a
recently perfected gas producer, ID
has been found that in converting peat
containing good per centage OF nitro
gen into gas large amount Of am
monia, greatly valued as fertilizer.
can be obtained as n by product Mr..
Davis quotes from report which
shows that where s-producer plants
using peat are carefully managed. SO
