Expert Coaching in Athletics.

Proper coaching in athletics is half
the battle; it teaches one how to use
his bodily powers most effectively,
with the least waste of strength. Next
to having personal discipline by ex-
perts is the sound instruction given in
the Youths Companion. A depart
ment of the paper is devoted to
pointing out the best practise in base
ball, football and the other great
sports, explaining the science OF
pitching, cross-country running, etc.
The contributions to this department
are made by the best authorities. 1t
is an example of the thoroughness
and accuracy with distinguishes The
Youths Companion. The stories are
of the most varied kind-those for
boys and girls proving equally inter-
esting to their elders. The Youths
Companion occupies unique place
in the field of periodical literature. 1t
is prominently family paper-a
home paper, touching every interest
of home life. And yet it costs only
$500 year-6fty-two crowded
issues for less than two cents a week.
Every new subscriber during 1918
will receive free The Companion
Window Transparency and Calendar
for 1913, in rich, translucent .colors.

ESTES TO ANSWER FOR
ENDLESS FLOW OF CHECKS

Sheriff Frank Breshears returned
Saturday night from Oregon with E.
L. Estes, wanted in Canyon county for
issuing a worthless check for SIS.
Estes was arrested at Medford, Ore,
and the fact that he refused to return
to Idaho without requisition papers
made it necessary for the sheriff to
make trip to Salem also.
When Canyon county gets through
dealing with Estes, it is probable that
Ada county will also require his pre-
scnce for time, for it is claimed that
while in Boise last December he drew
checks on his imaginary bank &C
counts to the amount of $4,000 and
proceeded to live high and fast on the
proceeds thereof. While at Medford,
it is alleged that he cashed a couple
more worthless checks. one for SIS
and one for SIS. When taken into
custody he had on his person a draft
on Boise bank for SIS on which he
had secured the signature of a Med
ford friend for Identification purposes.
Only the arrest of Estes prevented
his friend from being another victim
of misplaced cihdence.

again, crossing mountains and rivers
and traversing strange country. The
fate of the animals which are to be
removed from Wyoming to far-oft
West Virginia is problematical, but it
they do not endeavor to return across
the continents feat which certainly
seems impossible of accomplishment
they will surprise those who are
familiar with the character and habits
of these courageous and beautiful ami
mails.
The elk is easily domesticated, not
a few ranchmen in Jackson Hole and
Teton Basin having several of them.
In winter, when the deep SHOWS and
scarcity of food drive them from the
mountains into the valley settlements
under the towering Tetons, many may
be taken easily. There will be no
difficulty in securing so of them for
the West Virgian preserve. The
trouble will be in making them stay
there. for as travellers they have few
superiors among wild. animals.

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside a woman contributor writing
a little article on "1'he Cost of Wheat"
says:
"Mr. Schwartz estimates the cost at
$1O.25 per acre. A farmer in North
Dakota, using 800 acres, all in wheat
as bisis, figures $l2.25 per acre. If
business man, manufacturer of
farm machinery, for instance, were to
figure the cost of growing an acre of
wheat as he figures the cost of his pro-
duct, he would include the interest
on his plant; the fam cost; the up
keep; making good and replacing the
wear and tear; the salary of the presi-
dent or manager of the plant, in addi-
ton to that of the employees (the
farmers wife would be considered on
the basis of an assistant manager, and
her salary would be calculated); the
loss of stock during the year; the in
terest on the note, if any, at the bank,
or say the farm mortgage, if such a
thing exists today in the farm world !;
taxes. and perhaps percentage for
unseen expenses that creep into farm
life and yet go unheeded.
"If the above items are not legiti-
mate expense items on farm, what
are?"

JOHNSON WINS THE
ALASKAN DOG RACE

The Solomon derby, for dog teams,
from Nome to Solomon and return,
Is miles over thesnow trail, was won
Saturday by Jack Johnson, driving a
team of Siberian wolf hounds in f
hours ~ minutes. Oliver Blatchford
driving team of Missouri bird hounds,
was second; Alexander Holmson,
driving a mixed team of Malamutes
and Mackenzie river huskies, finished
third, and Scotty Allan's team was
fourth.
Only the four teams started and the
gaps between them at the finish was
not wide. All the dogs were in good
condition at the end The tempara-
ture was 80 degrees below zero, and,
as there was no wind conditions were
ideal for dog team racing.
Johnson led at the turn, which he
reached in hours, S. minutes.
The winning dogs formerly were
owned by Lord Fox Ramsey. They
hold the record for all-Alaska sweep
stakes race.

STAY MUST ANSWER
TO FORGERY CHARGE

J. B. Stay, sometimes known as
Taylor, was brought to the county
Jail here Saturday to await the trial
on charge of forgery. Warrant was
issued for Stays arrest on complaint
of Frank Briggs, whoc laims that Stay
forged his name to two checks for the
amount of $40. One of these checks
was cashed at Boise and one at Cald-
we'll. Stay was traced to Weiser and
from there to Huntington, where he
was arrested at the request of the
Canyon county officers. He at first
denied his identity, but later admit
ted that his name was Stay and that
he had forged the checks.
Stay declares he will waive prelim-
mary examination and plead guilty.

Back to Wheat in the Corn Belt.

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside appears an article by l.. c.
Burnett, wheat specialist attached
to the Iowa Experiment Station, in
which the author shows how the great
American corn belt must introduce
more wheat growing if it is to pre-
serve its success. Following is an ex-
tract:
while the corn belt has raised
more acres and more bushels of wheat
with each succeeding decade, still it
has not kept its pace with its increase
in population, nor has the importance
of the crop from the farmers stand
point been maintained. Each year
sees a smaller portion of our flour on
the export markets. Each year sees
greater increase in the corn crop
than it sees in the wheat crop, but we
cannot escape the fact that no highly
developed civilization has ever been
built by any but wheat-fed people.
The Saxon and the Anglo Saxon have
always demanded wheat as the staple
crop for the staff of life.
"The demand of our people for
wheat bread, however, is only a part
of the argument, for if we are to
maintain an agriculture that will give
our population any kind of food-stuff
for any considerable time the waste
full methods now common t. our corn
belt farm practices must be discon-
tinued
This means rotation of crops.
Another change must be inaugurated
is an increased attention to the sani-
tary conditions of the soil. Crops
can give but poor returns where the
weeds and insect pests are present.
The easiest method to eradicate both
OF these is by systematic change of
crops. Insects do not thrive except
on land where one-crop system is
followed"

LETTER FROM The
NATIONS CAPITAL

Representative French has been
able to have passed by the house his
bill providing for the selection by the
State Of Idaho of lands in Idaho with
drawn for phosphate and oil purposes
and also his joint resolution extend
ing the bill that he passed in 1912,
extending the time of payments to
homestead entrymen upon the Occur
d'Alene Reservation to certain home
steaders upon the reservation whose
lands had been forfeited at the time
the measure became law. The lat
ter of these measures will grant re-
lief to nearly one hundred settlers
on the Occur d'Alene Reservation and
the former, the bill providing for the
selection by the State of Idaho lands
within phosphate Withdrawals will
make it possible for the state to sell
ect something like $4,000 acres Of
land. These lands will be disposed
of by the state in the same manner
that the state is disposing Of other
lands held in trust for various insti-
tutions of the state.
February 23rd has been agreed up
on as the date on which memorial
services will be conducted in the
House of Representatives, comment
Grating the life and services of the
late Senator Hepburn. Congressman
French will make the principal ad-
dress and the following members will
Participate: Congressman Butler, Moon
and Moore, Pennsylvania; Camp
bell, Kansas; Crumpacker, Indiana
Hawley. Oregon; Howell, Utah;
Humphrey and LaFollette, Wash
Kentucky; Mondell, Wyoming; Sher-
wood, Ohio and Stevens, Minnesota.
The date for memorial services in the
Senate has not yet been fixed.
=. Senator Perky has returned from
Trenton, N. J., where he went in
company with Democratic State
Chairman Ben R. Gray, to confer
with the President-elect Wilson in the
interests of Ex-Governor Hawley, one
of the strongest candidates at present
for Secretary of the Interior, Sena-
tor Perky stated that Governor Will
son had not, by any means, lost sight
of Mr.. Hawley, but to the contrary
remarked that he was still in the run
ming.
The Department of the Interior has
authorized the transfer of 50 elk
from Wyoming to West Virginia, an
experiment which is bound to prove
of great interest to the lovers and
defenders of native wild animals. The
two carloads of these magnificent
creatures will be released in the
mountains, where they will have
plenty of pasture during the summer
months, In the winter they will be
cared for by private interests, from
which it may be inferred that the ex-
pertinent is not undertaken by the
government
The elk is possessed of an instinct
as unerring as that of homing pigeon
and invariably, where he has been re-
moved from his native haunts, he has
turned to the land of his birth and
made his way back in the face if in
Vulnerable difficulties. A band of elk
were transferred from the Jackson
Hole country to new range in Colo
RADIO and they found their way back
