Milk as Summer Food.

Milk and its products, cream. but
ter and cheese are served as food 10
almost every American home, yet,
comparatively speaking, there IS but
little protection afforded the con-
sumers from the diseases which may
be contracted by eating these foods.
The diseases most commonly spread
10 this way are tuberculosis, summer
com plant 10 children. typhoid fever,
and diphtheria. All Of these diseases
are known to be caused by the intro.
duction, growth and development OF
certain kinds Of bacteria 10 the
human system. 1t Is known that
milk and cream convey all these
diseases, and butter and cheese al
least the first one mentioned. The
organislns which cause tuberculosis
usually galn entrance to the milk,
and consequently to the cream, but
ter or cheese made from 1t, thrl
careless milking. rs
AS these disease producing bacteria
excepting the tubercle bacillus, grow
| and multiply rapidly in warm milk
rapid cooling, quick delivery aot
early use are important factors o
safety. Mix may be rendered saf'
from these diseases by heating 1t at ;
temperature of 155 degrees Fahren.

GLADSTONE LOSES OUT
Defeated by Hainss by a
Small Margin. /.
WILL ABIDE BY DECISION
Will Decline Nomination on Third
Party Ticket.

John M. Haines Of Boise is the
republican nominee for governor oi
Idaho according to tabulation oi
the official returns Of the recent
primary election from the twenty
seven counties of the state. The
report from Boise last Sunday
morning showed that Paul Clag-
stone, who was considered in the
lead for several days, was defeated
by IL votes.
Following is the total vote given
on the two leading candidates:
Clagstone first choice 1I,o23;
second choice 867; total 1890.
Haines first choice IL, $40, second
choice 522; total IL, 862.
Figures given out at Boise last
Sunday showed Haines 81 in the
lead, but on Monday, with the last
precinct finally heard from, Clag-
stone was apparently beaten by l6
votes.
The state board met on the 14th
to canvass the official returns.
]. H. Gipson, state chairman ol
the progressive party, alleged al
Caldwell last Saturday that the
nomination of Haines was accom-,
plished by the lavish expenditure
of money and declared his nomi
nation assures the election of q
democratic governor unless the
people be given an opportunity te
vote for progressive. Gipsor
said a meeting Of the progressive
! state committee would be callee
| to nominate complete state ticke
to be headed by Paul Clagstone.
/ On Monday, however, Pau
Clagstone gave out statemen
saying he would not accept tn,
| nomination for governor on tn,
progressive ticket, that he enteret
the race as Roosevelt progressive
and having been defeated, woult
abide by the result Of the republi
can primary. "Having apparent
| ly lost by very narrow margin,
said Mr. Clagstone in Spokan
Monday, 81 feel that | must abid
by the result and under no circum
stances shall l accept the nomina
ton for governor this fall on til
third party ticket" ....-
Mr.. Clagstone left for Boise t
be present at the official canvas
to be made Wednesday.

An IRRIGATION PROJECT
Water From Brickel Creek to
Rathdrum Prairie7

1t is reported that the Miller &
Wallace company of Spokane is
acquiring title to various tracts Of
land in this vicinity to be brought
under the Spirit lake or Brickel
creek irrigation project. which it is
said is being financed by Chicago
capitalists. The proposition, it is
claimed, is to bring the water from
Brickel creek at the head of Spirit
lake, and engineers, who have
been working on the schem- for a
long time, are said to have found a
way to get the water to Rathdrum
prairie without syphoning it over
the divide or tunneling, as had
been thought necessary, and as
would have to be done il the water
was taken directly from the lake
instead of the creek. oss s. e
It has been claimed for long
while that it was only question
Of time when the whole area Of
Rathdrum prairie will be brought
under irrigation, resulting in the
clearing and cultisating OF much
now vacant or timbered land. The
increase of productivity would
lead to the cutting of large farms
into smaller tracts and would mean
corresponding increase of the
population. axas

IDAHO ORCHARDS GROWING
Large Increase Of Acreage Report

Figures Of unusual interest relative

report issued recently from the state
horticultural department., which

development Of orcbardlng 10 the
Gem state during the past three years.

spector MCPHERSON prepared statistics
referring separately to each Of the IA.

interesting summary at the close.
From these totals 1t is shown that
the acreage in orchards la 1910 was
56,34i acres, In 1911, $500 acres,
and 10 1912, l42,775 acres. The in-

oyer 1910 was 40, 25s acres, and 10 the
two years OF 1911 and 1912 the in-
crease over 1910 was So. 432 acres. g
The report shows that 10 1910 there
were 3,Oi4 cars Of fruit shipped to
outside points. In 1911 this amount
decreased to, 2,023 cars, but during
the present year the report gives y
total Of 1920 cars. The shlppings
during the remainder OF 1919 will
doubtless swell this total much Ia
excess OF all previous records.
In Ada and Elmore counties, which
comprise district No. 8, the total
acreage 10 1912 Is given as, 2l, 800.
In 1910 the total Ia oIchards there
was 5000 acres. This acreage OF
81, 900 consists Of trees Of the folio ~
Ing. kinds: Apples, 10000 acres;
