TO PROTECT THE GAME
Killing Before Season Will Result in
Prosecutions.

Deputy State Game Warden r. l..
Pencil is now engaged in the organ
ization of his field forces to prevent
the killing of game before the season
is legally opened and has announced
the purpose of vigorously prosecuting
all offenders. BY an act of the legis-
lature in 1911 the opening of the grouse
season for the portion of the state north
of the Salmon river was fixed at Sep
TENDER, instead of August Is, as had
prevailed in former years, and last sea
son there were many complaints of kill
ing grouse in the outlying districts dur
ing the entire month of August. The
effort of the regular officials to stop
this slaughter was unsuccessful and a
plan has been adopted by Warden PEN
nell by which special resident deputy
wardens will be named for practically
every locality where grouse are known
to, range during the late summer season
and through this agency it is expected
there will be little difficulty in pre-
venting the killing Of birds out Of sea-
son.

TWO ACCIDENTS AT KoosKIA
Saw Mill Gets One; Hand Car Another.
News of the Week.

James Perkins, resident of the Fair
view section on Camas Prairie, spent
the past week in Kooskia visiting old
time friends, of which he has quite a
number here.
Thomas Fitting and Miss Grace Kid
der were united in marriage Thursday
morning at the home of the bride g
mother in Kooskia, r. H. Smith, J. P,

II. E. Hughes has given up the mail
job on the Kooskia- Tahoe mail route
and L. G.. English is again on the route.
A petition is being circulated for a
daily delivery and if this is secured a
carrier will be able to make living
at the job.
The Fem baseball team failed to put
in an appearance, but some good games
were pulled off this week. The first
game was between the Kooskia regu-
lars and team made up of whites and
Indians, the regulars winning by a
score of 8 to Z. The second game was
won by Sites, 9 to 7. The games are
very interesting to people who enjoy
trough stuff" among players and spec
tators, but such exhibitions disgust the
people who enjoy a sane game of ball.
Lester English was badly hurt Thurs
day afternoon. He was playing around
a hand car which was left on the track
near the picnic grounds and in some
way his foot got caught in the running
gear. 1t was narrow escape from SER
ious injury, although the lad couldn t
conceive of anything more serious than
going home while the other boys were
having all kinds of fun.
James Murphy met with an accident

horribly lacerated, necessitating the
amputation of one finger. It's the same
old story-a case of carelessness. He
placed his hand on log right in line

entire hand. DR.. Verberkmoes attend

Points Allowed.

Thirty points will be allowed on
yield, % being on the weight per bushel
and five on the uniformity of the sam
pie.
Fifteen points will be allowed on va
riety characters, three of these points
being on the color; 10 on purity, which
means the kernels must be true to the
type of breed represented; two points
are allowed for the kernel shape, which
varies with the breed.
Thirty points will be allowed for Vi
tality, five of these being for luster, as
a duh dead color is Objectionable; 10
points will be allowed for plumpness,
as all wheat kernels should be plump,
well filed and rounded, having no sharp
anges and with the creases well closed;
seven points are for odor, the samples
should be sweet and free from all foul
smell, mustiness, etc.
Clean Grain Necessary.
Twenty five points are allowed for
market conditions, 10 being allowed
for weed seed; three points for dirt and
dust; two points for injured kernels;
five. points for smut and five points
for the condition of the bran. This
means the samples to stand any chance
of securing the prize, must be free from
weed seed, especially wild oats, darnel,
quack grass, cheat and mustard. No
dust must be present. All broken,
blighted and scabby kernels will count
against the wheat, while the bran or
seed coat must be smooth, bright and
free from dirt and weathering.
Must be Standard.
The rules for Judging take away one
point for each pound for less than
standard weight of 60 pounds. The
judges will count out 100 seeds as they
run. The will cut the score in proper
ton to the weed seed found. Color, pu-
rity, kernel shape, luster, plumpness,
germ, ordor, dirt, dust, smut and con-
dition of bran are all of a matter of
Judgment. The judges will consider
carefully the desirable features in these
regards and cut the score in each case
acco dinghy.
President Penwell has been receiv-
ing many inquiries from farmers who
want to know whether it is fair to
hand-pick" the wheat. To these the
officers have replied that anyone who
wants to pick over five bushels of
wheat in order to win prize, and who
knows good wheat when they see it, is
entitled to enter the competition and
win the prize if his wheat can make the
score. The officers don't care how
much hand-picking is done, but they
have asked for five bushels samples,
which makes it highly probable that
only one sample in hundred. will be
hand-picked.

Charles Whipple, the inventor, has

Another advantage of the gear IS
that any desired speed may be had aud

A model of the gear is now set up at

Fiue Thousand Dollars for
Best Fiue Bushels of Wheat

Minneapolis, Mimi, July Glow
the judges will find the best five bush
els of wheat in the American northwest
and determine who is entitled to the
$4,000 prize Offered for them by the
Northwest Development League, is told
by President Lewis Penwell of the
league, who has given much time to
working out the details.
How many people will pick over five
bushels of wheat by hand in order to
get the kernels uniform, remove weed
seed, have only plump, bright, sweet
seeds in the sample and thus get the
grain little nearer perfect, is ques-
tion that is interesting the products ex-
position officials, and it appears from
the hundreds of inquiries that large
number are willing to "hand-pick the
wheat
Farmers Will Compete.
"Four hundred farmers have written
the secretary and declared their inten-
ton of entering this contest" said Mr..
Penwell. "With prospects for the best
grain crops the American northwest has
ever known, there will be plenty of
competition for the prize Offered at the
northwestern products exposition in
November.
"Three judges will be selected by
the president and the agronomists of
the agricultural colleges of the seven
states competing, Minnesota, the Da-
kotas, Montana, Idaho, Washington and
Oregon. The judges must come from
without the American northwest. 1t
is not expected that these judges will
all be agricultural college people. Some
one of them will probably be from one
of the grain exchanges of the country
"a Judge of commercial grains.
Judging Of Exhibits.
"Judging will be in three ways:
First, according to the accepted score
card; second, by a milling and baking
test, and third, by the yield per acre.
One hundred points will be allowed for
each of the three ways and the sum of
the points gained divided by three, thus
at the average score.'
Mr.. Penwell said the judging by the
standard seed score is probably the
most interesting, as the exhibitor can
gain points by carefully selecting his
grain. In the milling test the exhibitor
cannot tell what kind of bread his
wheat will make, but he can have the
wheat clean and free from impurities
This score card shows the test which
all wheat is given in one way or anoth-
er at the great grain markets to deter
mine it's commercial grade. The judges
in determining the best wheat at the
exposition will of course be guided by
the same requirements.

BRYAN THE CAUSE.
SENATOR HEITFIELD SAYS BRYAN
CAUSED CLARK's DEFEAT.
WILSON STRONG; WILL win
General Opinion Throughout the East
That Wilson Will Win. Bryan's At
titude at Convention Unfair.

Former Senator Heitfeld has returned
democratic national convention as a
member of the Idaho delegation. He
is unhesitating in the view that the
attitude of Bryan alone defeated Champ
Clark for the democratic presidential
nomination. In conversation yesterday
with Tribune reporter, Senator Heit-
field said that Wilson was ready to
withdraw and Clark s nomination was
practically assured, when Bryan took
the unique position that he would not
support candidate whom New York
supported, the intimation being that
Clark would not be acceptable to him.
This move of Bryan's resulted in
number of delegates changing their atti
tude.
Mr.. Heitfeld and Sam Rich were the
Idaho delegates who remained with
Clark to the last, only going to Wilson
on the forty-sixth ballot The delega-
ton was pledged to vote as a unit for
Clark so long as he had chance of sue
cess. Several of the delegates, however,
left him on about the sixteenth ballot.
Senator Heitfeld said that the Idaho
delegation voted for Bryan for temper.
airy chairman. However, said the
Senator, p" had we not been tied up by
the unit rule on such matters, I would
surely have cast my vote for Parker.
| did not like the position assumed by
Mr.. Bryan toward the Parker move
mont. This was also the view quite
generally taken in the convention. In
fact Bryan lost many friends through
his work in the convention. This espec.
tally applies to the Clark men, while it
can be said the Wilson people are not
especially in love with him. The con.
vention work left no soreness in the
party, except the feeling against Bry
an. ! doubt that he can ever exert in
the future such an influence with the
party as he has in the past. 1t was felt
in view of the fact that he had in the
past campaigns solicited and received
New York or Tammany support made
his position in the convention seem very
inc0nsistent His attack on Clark was
accepted as being very unfair one."
Senator Heitfeld tells of an occur
renee at Washington City following the
convention, when Mr. Clark was asked
if he had stated he would accept the
vice presidential nomination under GER
tain conditions. Mr.. Clark said he had
suggested he would accept the nomina-
ton under certain conditions. lone
of these conditions he said, twas
that | should be the unanimous choice
of the convention, while the first condi-
ton was that Bryan should address the
convention and admit that he lied about
me.
Senator Heitfeld believes that Wilson
will be elected. THAT seems to be
the view throughout the east. The
large newspapers freely predict his cleo
ton. Wilson is big man, and his fair
methods in the convention attracted to
him many friends.
