LOTS OF PEOPLE

Are carrying excess baggage with
them through life in the form of eye
strain. They are aware something
| is wrong with them, and attribute it
to most everything but the right
|cause-eye strain. They drag along,
almost a failure at whatever they I'M
dertake. Finally there comes COM
plete break-down-the nerves could
not sustain the drain any longer
then comes months -sometimes years
of doctoring, expense and untold
suffering.
Just as great floods have started
from little leaks, so do severe ner-
vous arrangements b gin from un-
conscious eye defects. We know this
from years of experience in examin-
ing eyes. To relieve these conditions
in the body is not simple matter.
Skill, judgment and experience has
to e consulted. The average kind OF
eye correction will not do any good,
as many have found out by expert
ence. Glasses can bring on nervous
disorders as we'll as relieve them; we
have changed a number of this kind
for the right ones. Don't go for
glasses as though you were buying
a jack-knife-take time to consider
the matter If you are particular
about your eyes, see DR.. SCARBOR-

tative Vreeland will give an address

The governors will visit Niagara
Falls Sunday afternoon and the spe-
cial train will leave for Rochester at
7 o'clock.
Former Governor James H. Brady
of Idaho, will be in charge of the
party. The others are Governors A.
O. Eberhardt of Minnesota; John
Burke of North DAKOTA; John Shat

R. S. Vessey of South Da.
kota; James Hawley of Idaho; Edwin
Norris of Montana; Oswald West OF

has been invited to join the party at
Buffalo and 1t is probable that he
will accept. Among the prominent
westerners in the party aside from
the governors will be five directors
OF the Panama-Pacific exposition.
Besides Rochester, stops will be
made at five other cities In New York
state. these being New York, Buffa-
10, Syracuse, Albany and Utica. The
party will be in Washington on De-
cember 7 and will attend the Nation
al Rivers and Harpors Congress,
which will be held in the capitol on
December 6, z, and s. Secretary
Woodward, of the chamber of com
merce, who Is also secretary of the
New York state Waterways associa-
ton, is delegate to the congress
and 1t is probable that he will ac-
company the governors party when
it leaves Rochester.
While in this city it is probable
that one or more Of the visiting gov
errors will Re askeS to speak on
Conservation" as westerners are
pioneers in that movement. In fact,
Governor Eberhardt, Of Minnesota, is
said to have called the first conserva-
ton congress, which was heard at St.
Paul. Rochester has heard severa!
speakers of note on that subject, but
1t is probable that Governor Eber-
hardt is more qualified than any 9TH
er man to speak on conversation. II

"WIZARD OF WEST SHOWS WON.
DERS TO IDAHOANS

That the apple Industry of thf
country will be given a tremendous
impetus by the introduction of Luther
c. Burbank's Newtown, which he is
just improving and which excels the
present Newtown in many different
ways, was the opinion of Charles ].
Slnsel, who has just returned from
visit to the 4O-acre farm of the
wizard of the west at Santa Rosa,
Ca. He stopped there on his way
back from the jacksonville Cal, ap-
pie show, where he was one of the
judges.
The characteristics of the new ap-
pies, Mr.. Sinsel says, are it's fullness
at both ends, making it a valuable
commercial article in that it packs
we'll in box, keeps we'll because of
it's tough skin, and is an apple of
better quality than had been produc-
ed in that species now on the market.
Mr.. Sinsel declares that this apple
will in time supercede the present
Newtown. 1t is always yellow after
1t has begun to form, while the pre-
sent kind does not turn yellow until
1t is almost ripe. 1t will be easily
adapted to Idaho's soil and climate.
Mr.. Sincel says, because of its l1ardi-
ness, along with it's other good feat
ures. Almost equally as revolution
izing, according to the apple Judge,
will be the thornless blackberry,
which is becoming perfected at Santa
Rosa and which will be put on the
market in short time.

La Toilette Attacks
Policies Of Taft

MADISON. Wis, Aug. 4.-Following
President Taft's message to Congress
in explanation of his Alaskan policy,
Senator La Toilette, in the current
issue of La Follette's Weekly, char
Acterized Tafts present conservation
policy as the "same old Ballinger pol
icy repudiated by the public"
"Ballinger is now gone, crowned
with Presidential laurels," says Sen
ator La Toilette, but Ballingerism
remains. This is the meaning of Taft's
statement in the Controller Bay case.
These lands skirtlng the shore Of Con-
troller Bay, should never have been
thrown open to private individuals.
Do not lose sight of that fact 1t is
the essential fact in this controversy.
"The manner in which Taft let Ryan
get a foothold on this strategic point
Is important only as 1t illuminates
that Taft method. The act itself is
important as showing how very in
secure are our valuable natural pos
sessions under the Taft policy"
La Toilette declares Roosevelt kept
these terminal lands from individuals
by placing them in the ChugaCh for
est reserve, but Taft, at the request
of Ryan, took them out of the reserve
for the very purpose of letting them
go to private individuals and corpor-
Iations
