BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.


In many respects John NJ. Haines
resembles Senator Bill Borah. For
one thing John Haines never fails
To call a spade n spade. pigs is
Pigs with John every crack out of
the box. He's a buJiness mar and
"A mighty successful one too. II
In the course of business it becomes
necessary for John Haines % go
deep into anything he dives in.
When he comes out everyone knows
the real worth of the prospect.
There is no sham about Haines. He
calls everything by its right name.
And. by the way. when he publicly
announced his candidacy. Haines
said among other things:
IF | am elected my promise to
the people of Idaho is to give them

lration, | pledge them my word
that 1t viii be honest. efficient and
businesslike."

No man in Idaho today has more
business ability than John Haines.
He's chuck full of both ability and
courage and If there is any truth
IL the assertion that a man who
can manage his own affairs should
an ideal state executive. then
John Iiaines has all the qualiica-
tons necessary.
Haines is not one of the big or
ators OF Idaho but he is one OF the
accomplishers of things in the
state and he has been one of Ida
hos very best upbuilders. Boise

him a deep debt of gratitude. and

ARMY WORMS IN STANLEY.
DwgeIesists Interested In Depreciation,

Dvuelegists Interested In Depredatiens
Of Pests Near KadoI<a.
Chamberlain. - Bugologists are
greatly interested in the peculiar and
unusual taste exhibited by horde of
army worms, which are operating in
q limited territory in western Stanley
county, near Kadoka. For years one
Of the greatest vegetation pests Of the
farmers there as well as in many other
parts of the state have been the Rus
sian thistles, or tumble weeds" as
they are commonly known. The army
worms operating near Kadoka have de-
veloped a sudden taste for Russian
thistles. which during past years have
always been passed up" by them.
The army worms first appeared on the
farm Of s. 8. Hughes, near Kadoka,
and he thought his corn and other
crops were "goner" But, much to
his surprise and delight, the army
worms devoted their entire attention
to the Russian thistles.
They clean up the thistles and leave
nothing but the clear stalks standing,
and do not to the slightest degree mo-
lest the grain and corn In the fields
where they are operating. Having now
devoured all the Russian thistles on
the Hughes farm, the army worms
have gone to the adjacent farm, owned
by j. A. Huges, where they are attack
ing the thistles with vigor. The pecul-
lar part Of their operations is that
they are working among the thistles
down the rows of corn, but are not
molesting the growing corn. The Sc
lection. of Russian thistles for food
is new stunt" Of the army worms,
and the matter will be reported to the
experts Of the agricultural depart
ment at Washington.

Sioux Falls.-Judge Elliott, Of the
United States court in this city, has
concluded the work of hearing argu-
ments in case involving the collec-
ton OF over $185,000, principal and in
terest, on an obsolete bond issue made
by Rapid City many years ago. The
suit for collection was instituted In
the federal court for South Dakota
by Henry G.. Dinet, Of Chicago, who
seeks to secure judgment against
Rapid City for the amount of his
claim. The bonds in question were
issued In aid of the construction OF
what is known as. the Crouch line Of
railroad, extending from Rapid City
to Mystic, distance Of about 81 miles.
The city assumed a debt and then re-
funded it, the purpose being to assist
in building the road. A total OF 21S
Of the refunding monds were issued
Later all of them but IS were destroy
ed. OF the IS, ten were paid, of five
others nothing is known and now d.

terest on the remaining 70. The case
promises to turn on the fact as to
whether or not Dinet is bona fide
purchaser or holder Of the bonds. A
long and bitterly fought legal bat
tie IL expected.

Everybody In Hard Luck.

eager hand.

Mr.. hartmann figured out the ap
proximate cost of this work at about
$3.50 a tree. The spraying is the
most costly. A crew of five men and
a modern power spraying machine
he said. ought to clean about sixty
trees day.

after year, and then. while we can
not prevent the appearance Of these
insects entirely, they will be less In
number and less destructive to the
future beauty Of the trees"
Park Commissioner Slower, when
asked what was being done to kill OF
the moths and prevent their future
propagation, said that he believed ev-
erything that could be done with the
means at hand was being accom-.
plished, and he added that spraying
machines were at work In several
parts Of the park.

those who walk along the Fifth ave-

gardeners a. one Of the most persis-
tent and destructive insects with
which they have to deal. Within

to have sprung into life In unusually
large numbers this year. Charles
