GIRLS WIN BASKETBALL GAME

students of the higher grades.
The Pocatello Academy's basket
basket ball team journeyed up here
for clash with our local team
and judging from the size before the
game, If betting had been allowed
We are afraid that Pocatello would
have been on the long end, by a big
margin. AS it was our girls sure
did not show any mercy, and at the
end Of the first half the score stood
11-3 in favor Of the locals.
1t would be hard to say who was
the stars in this game as all of the

speed, and the team work was per-

THE WHY OF ALFALFA AS A VIR-
GIN CROP FOR SAGE BRUSH Land.

AS virgin crop for raw sage brush
land, alfalfa stands foremost among
the legumes because of its market
influence upon the growth and pro-
ductiveness of succeeding crops.
Sage brush lands is usually rich in
potash and phosphoric acid and poor
in nitrogen (organic matter.) Alfal-
ia appears to correct the lack of nit
rogen by the cultivating effect of its
wonderful root system, but the belief
that it adds large amounts of nitro
gen to the soil for other er0ps is err
roneous. Exhaustive studies have
shown that although 1t is capable Of
manufacturing its own nitrogen
when this element is lacking in the
soil, it is also great feeder on nit
rogen and deposits very little excess
of soluble nitrates. Therefore the
beneficial effect of alfalfa seems due,
not so much to the addition Of nitrat-
es, but rather to the loosening and
penetrating effect of Its roots, and to
whatever organic matter may remain
in the roots.
It should be borne in mind, that
while it can supply its own nitrogen,
it must, as do other crops. get its
potash and phosphoric acid from the
soil. H. p. FISHBURN

About nine years ago Uncle Sam
became actively interested in the pro-
lection of wild birds. This interest
was brought about because OF various
species of game birds. as we'll as
song and insect eating birds, were de-
creasing rapidly, while insect pests
were increasing in immense numbers
Uncle Sam has recently estimated
that the annual loss to agricultural
and horticultural interests in this
country amounts to $420.100,00O.
The National Association Of Aud
ubon Societies, which was organized
for the protection Of Wild birds and
animals. began the campaign num-
Der Of years ago to get certain refug-
es retreats where no hunting or kill
ing beneficial birds was allowed at
any season Of the year.
The first national wild bird reser-
vation was set aside March "a. 1903
by special Proclamation Of the pre-
sident. Since that time fifty-five
other reservations have been created
solely for the protection Of wild
birds. These embrace rocky mount
aims, and sand beaches, lakes. marsh
es and other places that are Of no
agricultural value. reaching from
Florida to Alaska and over to the
Hawaiian Islands. Many Of these
are the ancestral breeding places Of
birds, some Of which are almost ex-
terminated by plume hunters.
The largest and best national
wild bird reservations are on the Pa
cific Coast" said Mr.. William L. Fin
ley, State Game Warden for. Oregon
who has during the past year succ-
eeded in getting q large number Of
smaller game refugees in various parts
of his state. "One Of our government
reservations includes vast area Of
the treeless tundra at the mouth Of
the Yukon River in Alaska. Another
includes Lower klamath Lake il
northern California and southern
Oregon, and a third includes Malheul
and Harvey Lakes in southeastern
Oregon. These three act as immense
nurseries where untold thousands Of
ducks, geese and other wild foul are
reared each year. Uncle Sam estab
lished strict laws for the protection
of these wild birds on the reservation
and employs special wardens to SCI
! that these laws are enforced.
"A few years ago Mrs. Russo
Sage became greatly interested II

ubon Societies and gave several thou
sand dollars which was used to carr!
| on educational work in the schools
in some of the southern states where
song birds had for many years beer
! killed as game birds. A short tins
ago Mrs. Sage purchased Marsh Is
land in Louisiana, tract of lane

DEWBERRIES

The dewberry should be more fire.
qnently found growing in this state.
During spring and summer there is
always good demand for fresh fruit
of this kind. II the local market is
weak the surplus berries can be ship
ped to some other point or canned
for home use. The dewberry is a
trailing shrub, capable, under favor
able conditions, of making luxur-
ious growth of both wood and fruit.
The best, site is a north or north
west exposure, and the dewberry will
thrive on most any soil where the
drainage is good. Secure plants from
nearby plantations. As rule the
cost will be less thsn if they we're
purchased from nurseries. If the
plants are to grow PROSTATE, plant
them five feet each way. If, on the
other hand, the vines are to be train
ed to trellis, plant them in rows
six feet apart and three feet apart in
the row.
The planting can be done either in
fall or spring, the time of planting
being left to the farmer. The vines
will produce full crop of berries
the third or fourth year. The field
should be cultivated and pruned each
year in order to maintain the pro-
ductiveness and vigor of the plants.
When the vines come into bearing
mulch the field with straw every
spring to protect the clusters of ber-
ries from the soil. Just before the
picking season opens cut out all long
trailing vines that have NO fruit on
them. Prune each year during fall or
spring. Cut out all old canes and
trim the new growth back to several
feet in length.
The Lucretia dewberry is about
the only variety worth growing. 1t
is large and productive, and ripens
early in the season. c.. J. HAYDEN.
