TIMOTHY SEED AND BARLEY

This season barley and timothy
have been the winning crops for
the farmers, and a world of both
were raised on Camas Prairie,
the soil of which is peculiarly
adapted to those crops, including
also oats and wheat, and in a
number of instances this year s
crops have more than returned
the price paid for the Land. Par
ker & Batty are this week finish
ing the threshing of their timothy
crop east of town; what the
yield is has not been learned.
AT Reubens last week B. F.
CLANCY is reported to have re-
ceived $4,000 for the timothy
seed threshed from 100 acres
of land lying one-half mile north
of the town. A carload of seed
was shipped from the same place
which at the present price of II
cents, was valued at $500, said
to have been the most valuable

SCHOOL NOTES.

The work of grade one is some
what hindered this week by car
penter work that is being done
ON that room. In order to pro-
vide "a chemical laboratory, the
board thought it best to utilize
a cloak room and part of a large
school room in making another
room in the main building. When
this room is completed it will be
occupied by grade la, and the
chemistry laboratory will be plac-
ed in the outside room now oc-
cupied by grade la, thus max
ing all the grades in the main
building. This change occasions
only the expense of tearing out
one partition and moving anoth--
err, but if an additional room had
been built the cost would have
been four times as great. With
this change the school can well
be proud of its physics and chem
istry laboratory.
The library is now being cat
alleged in order that it may be
more useful. As it is, there are
about twelve hundred books un-
classified and uncataloged.
Neither teachers nor pupils know
where to find books nor do they
the subjects that are treated by
these books. The cataloging will
supply this information. a libr-
ary can be valuable only to the
extent that it is used by the pu-
pills and we propose to put it in
to such shape that it can be
used.
On an average high school pu-
pills are not doing enough home
study. 1t ought to be kept IN
mind by parents that no high
school student can do his work
properly without much home
strd Just now they ought to
study at least three hours per
day. Those studying more than
three hours per day will be able
to handle their work better. Nor
study is required now than
should be required if there had
been more study last year.

The Peck Reporter tells of one
citizen there who exchanged four
sacks of timothy for $50; another
who sold the product from Az

CLANCY took a load to the ware
house which was cashed in for

able load of farm product ever
hauled to market in northern
Idaho.
1t is admitted that the timothy
seed grown in the northwest has
greater vitality and productive
ness than that Of any other know
section, which accounts for the
great demand for it from the far
east and the superior price
which it commands. This is its
natural habitat, and it grows
here spontaneously.

WORK PLACERS
ON SALMON

Elk City News: John Nassau
has just returned from Dixie
where he has been experimenting
the moving of d saw mill to the
Lemhi bar ON Salmon river, to
be used to saw lumber for a
flume to be built at this point,
to carry water from Lemhi creek
to the bar for placer mining.
The Lemhi bar was purchased
by John Nassau and l.. B.
Adams of Spokane and l.. r.
Adams of Chicago, this spring,
will be extensively worked. 1t
is proposed to construct a ditch
and flume that will give fall of
160ft. to the bar, which is soft.
above the river. The flume will
be 1900 it. long, the work to be
done this fall.
Lemhi bar is one of the largest
bars on the river and has been
worked on small scale for a
number of years, and has pro-
duced well.
The bar was owned by Fred
Silgee, Jake Pritchard and Jules
Reeser, and these experienced
placer miners will have charge
of the installation of the new
plant.

deem the holding of a Rally day
service of very great benefit to
the Sunday school, and believing
that simultaneous effort on the
part of the Sunday schools of
this district will contribute large
ly toward the success of the Sun

recommend that Sunday, October

Sunday school in the district to
observe Rally day at that time.

been made in Idaho county in
Sunday school work and desiring

regret that Brother Saxton is
soon to leave us and that Broth
er McMurray is unable to be will
us in this, the Third District Con

). Be it further resolved that
since Idaho county is dry terri

Beautiful Decorations At College Ave.
Baptist Church-The Fruits OF
The Field.

Yesterday at College Avenue Baptist
Church, the Rev. 7. c. Bird. pastor.
the annual festival Of Harvest
Home" was celebrated.
On this occasion il is customary TO
decorate the altar with the fruits
of the fields, and to observe Gods
goodness in giving thanks for an
abundant harvest. The decorations at
College Avenue Baptist Church were
never more elaborate and beautiful
than yesterday, and the work of dec
Grating reflected great credit on those
who did it,
Quite a number of worshippers from
other congregations in the city attend
ed the services of the Harvest Home
festival, and admired the decorations.
The platform and surroundings were
tastefully festooned with varied col
ored autumn leaves and vines, and on
the platform proper, fruit and vege-
tables were arranged very artisti-
cally. In the centre of the commu-
nion table rested an immense dish
filled with fruit-oranges apples,
pears, grapes, etc.
1t presented beautiful picture and
was sight we'll worth seeing. The
minister preached a sermon appropri-
ate to the occasion and making Scrip
tural applications and drawing prac-
tical lessons therefrom. A large
congregation was present.

GUSTAFF KRUGER DEAD.
Man Who Shot His Sweetheart Died At
Emergency Hospital OF Self In
flicted Wounds.

Gustaff Kruger. the man Of %
years, who shot his sweetheart. Jose
phine Ameling, of 10. because she re-
fused to elope with him, died last
night at the Emergency Hospital
from self-inficted pistol wounds and
cut wrists.
At first. when brought to the hos
pital, DR.. Hopkins and DR. Mcnamara.
the attending physicians. had hope of
saving the mans life, but after lying
in an unconscious state for thirty-six
hours, he died last night about s
O'Clock. The remains were removed
to the undertaking establishment of
James S. Taylor & Sons, where they
were prepared for burial.
The man was apparently without
relatives and friends, no one has claim
ed the body and it will probably be
buried at the expense of the county.
The immediate cause of Kruger's
death is said to have been pneu-
monia, due to exposure and living in
the ditch where he was found hv
his sweetheart's brother. exposed 10
the rain and on the wet earth.
With face upturned and the rain
pouring down on him, the wounded
man was found Saturday with his
wrists cut to the bone and two bull
lets in his head. He was uncon-
seious when brought to the hospital.
A constable from the Fourth district
guarded his bed, while the Doctors
battled to save his life. KRUGER
came from Germany about six years
ago. About three years ago he went
to work for Mr.. Joseph Ameling.
father of the girl he shot. His
friends and relatives are unknown
to the authorities. State S Attorney
Nicholas H. Green made every effort
today to find the dead man relatives.
but without success.
Miss Ameling's condition is un-
changed. She is a patient at st.
Joseph's Hospital, Baltimore. She
does not know of Kruger's death.
Two of the four bullets with which
she was shot have been removed. The
doctors are waiting for her to gain
strength before probing for the others.

WOMAN IN THE CASE
Or Several Women The Reason
That Nine Middies Prefer
Army To Navy.
NAVY DOESN'T CARE.
Many Middies Leaving Service Pre-
vents Enormous Hump In
Future.

Comment is rife everywhere on
the recent transfer of nine midship-
men, graduates Of the Naval Acad
emy, who entered the Army as sec
ond lieutenants of Coast Artillery.
The Navy Department. though gen
orally opposed 10 the resignation of
mldshipmen before they have render
ed some equivalent in service for the
$4,000 which it is estimated each
one of them costs the government TO
educate and train, is at present en-
tirely willing to let these young men
so into the army. This is because
the graduating classes at the Naval
Academy recently have been so
large as 10 lead to grave apprehen-
sion that another enormous hump"
or undue accumulation of officers
in one grade, NAV occur in the fu-
ture.
That nine young midshipmen Just
graduated from the Naval Academy.
and who otherwise soon would receive
their commissions as cnsigns, should
voluntarily abandon their chances of
a naval career to accept second lieu
tenancies in the army, when these
posts are almost going begging for
lack of civilian candidates, came as
a surprise last week.
1t appears that there is reason.
able explanation, however, and one
that does not - any way diminish the
attractiveness of sailors life. AS
might be suspected there is "a wo-
man in the case, " or rather several
women for it turns out that most of
the young men who have transferred
to the army are anxious to marry and
to take their brides with them to the
army post where they will be, sta
toned.
OF course, they could marry if they
remained i'm the navy, but in that case
they would not be able to enjoy the
company of their wives for periods of
three years at time and meanwhile
they would be obliged to maintain
two establishments, and, as the ma
jority Of these young men are not
wealthy, the financial consideration
is very important.

TO BUILD DRUM POINT.
Work On Southern Maryland Railroad
To Begin AT Once.

Work will begin at once on the old
Drum Point railroad and will be
pushed to completion.
Construction trains will soon be
carrying rails and equipment to Mil
lersville, this county, where the road
bed is already graded. Efforts will
be made to have the road in operation
at the earliest possible moment. At
the meeting of the directors of the
road held Saturday new directors
and president were elected.
Littleton M. Sturgis was made
president and the following directors
were elected: Littleton M. Sturgis,
C. Henry Anderson, f. L. Walsh,
L. E. Holloman, j. Royal Tippett, H.
L. White and L. w. Hopkins. The
other officers of the company are !:
Vice-President, C. Henry Anderson;
treasurer, Edward L. Walsh; secre-
tary, L. E. Hollomon; general man
ager, ]. Royal Tippett.
The directors adopted unanimously
a resolution to start work on the
road at the earliest possible time.
Rails will first be laid between Mil
lersville and Birdsville, distance of
% miles, after which trains will be
used over the line to carry equipment
farther down.
Steamer lines to Maryland and Vir-
ginia points will probably connect
with the railroad and give to South
ern Maryland the transportation fa-
cilities so long needed.

INTENSE PAIN THE CAUSE.
Father OF Midshipman Dennis Price
Believes Suicide Due To Temporary
Derangement Caused By Injured
Ear Drums.

The body of Passed Midshipman
Charles Denniston Price, United States

U. S. cruiser New Orleans, off Olon-
gapo, p. l., on October Is, is expect
ed to arrive in the States on Novem-

er and mother and sisters are bearing
up bravely, sustained and soothed
by an unfaltering trust" under the
great strain. The dear form will be
laid at rest at Oakmont, Pa, the
home Of the beloved midshipman.
While the family are yet without de-
tails of their sons suicide, the faith
er of the beloved dead son believes
that the principal cause of his sons
rash act was intense pain, arising
from injured ear drums, due to target
practice, causing temporary de-
rangement.
