WHAT GOOD IS IT?

This question Is propounded in the
March Popular Mechanics Magazine.
by a licensed air pilot who doubts
the utility of the aeroplane. He says:
1T is my good fortune to have pilot
ed machines that are the very last
word in French design and construc.
tion, yet aside from the finish, they
are absolutely no improvement over
the old birds that made records and
widows at the first Rheims meets.
That the French machines are super
ior to their contemporaries Is shown
by their recent performances at Chi
cago, yet, on them, the vital prob
lem of stability is as far from solu-
tion as ever They take weeks to
master and they are very, very far
from being commercially fool-proo(.
A loose bolt here-a wire jammed
there-a puff Of wind when flying
low-and another airman has gone,
Just as they have been going for
years."

COUNTRY PAPERS
GIVEN HARD JOLT
Bill to Repeal Statute Fixing Rate
for Legal Publications
Passed

"Villainous extortions" OF the coun-
try newspapers were exposed on the
floor Of the senate at the morning
session yesterday, in the discussion
of senate bill No. As, by Hedrick.
The bill was for the repeal OF Sec
tion 1477. This section fixes the
rate to be charged for legal publ
cations at 81 an inch for the first
insertion and so cents for each ad-
ditional insertion.
Senator Defenbach opposed the
bill. He thought that IL the bride
were taken off the country newspa-
pers would run wild, and soon have
all the money In the community.
Senator Hedrick told pitiful tale OF
how everybody was held up In
Blaine county by the grsaping news
papers. The running debate that fol-
lowed might be summed up in this
way:
Senator Baldridge-Too much 10
paid for public printing in Canyon
county.
Senator Hanson-Too much is paid
for public printing In Shoshone
county.
Senator Luck-Too much is paid
for public printing in Boise county.
Senator Hedrick-Too much is paid
for public printing in Blaine county.
Senator Defenbach-Too much is
paid for public printing in---(Please
don't mention the county,

Wis tried to get in few words In

ance were not too rich to be healthy.
but the wave of economy, Of retrench
ment and reform, that swept over the
senate, was too much for them. The
"plutocratic'' country newspapermen
were routed by the following vote on
the final passage Of the bill;
AYES-Baldridge Barton, Borden,
Dunning. Edginton, Fairchild, Good
night, Haight, Hanson, Hedrick,
Johnson, Johnson, Lee, Luck, Reed.
Shepherd-16.

ABSENT-Sweet-1.
Senator Fields was excused from
voting because he is a newspaper
man himself. He was afraid, he
said, that his action might be miscon.
strued.

TWELVE HUNDRED ACRE RANCH
SOLD

Weiser, Feb 17.-By far the larg-
est land deal pulled off in this sec
tion for months has just been closed
whereby o. w. Porter disposed Of
his 1200-acre ranch few miles west
of Weiser on the Oregon side, and
lying along Snake river, to an EN-
NETT syndicate headed by David Mel
son. The price paid is reported to
be $4,000. In connection with the
main tract is an island in Snake riv-
er containing about a quarter section
which has been under cultivation for
many years.
The announcement Of this gigantic
deal comes as big surprise, though
Mr.. Porter had often offered the land
for sale, yet would refuse to close a
deal when a buyer was secured. This
is the largest tract in this section,
and now that it has passed to new
owners will no doubt be speedily sub
divided into smaller units.
A goodly portion of the ranch has
been under cultivation for several
years yet 1t was not until last year
that Mr.. Porter attempted to cultivate
it on a more extended scale, when he
installed electric pumps sufficient tt
supply 600 acres. BY those in a posi-
tion TO know it is said the land Is
admirably adapted to fruit raising
and is so situated as to eliminate
all dangers from late frosts. Before
a very great while a number OF fam
lilies will be located on the tract
which will rapidly be transformed in
to one of the most productive spots
in the famous Snake river valley.

SALT LAKE, Feb. 20-California

by j. U. Mcpherson, state horti-
culture inspector of Idaho, who is re-
turning to his state from California,
where he has been working in an eff,
fort to have the quarantine on Ida
no hay raised.
According to Mr. Mcpherson, al
most all California fruits could be
excluded from other states. Mr.. Nc
Pherson said that California was will
ing to lift the quarantine on Idaho
hay if Idaho in turn would place a
quarantine on hay from Utah and
Wyoming and agree not to ship any
hay produced in the three southeast
