Dubois Has a Schceme.

Erred T. Dubois has a well defined
plan to rally the disgruntled Demo-
Gratis and the disgruntled Republicans
under the Bull Moose banner and in
this way re-establish himself in the
politics of Idaho. This is the secret
of his assault on the Mormons at this
time. 1t can be explained in no other
way" This was the comment of one
of the leading Democrats of the state
Wednesday on the. Dubois interview
in The Statesman. This man would
not permit the use of his name. He
took the position he was not in pub
lie life and he could see no real good
to be derived from entering into con-
troversy with Senator Dubois and his.
political lieutenants.

WESTLAKE SELLSPRUNE
CROP FOR S12,75O
Earl Fruit Company the Pur-
chasers-S425 Per Car
Guaranteed.

The Westlake fruit farm, owned by
Arthur Richards, has sold its entire
crop of prunes to the Earl Fruit Com
pany of New York at minimum
price of $425 per carload, +. o. b. En-
met. This is an advance of $50 per
car over last year from the same flrm.
This advance, however, is contingent
upon the freight rate of $25 per car
charged between Emmett and Nampa
being eliminated.
Mr.. Richards estimates his crcop
this year at about 80 carloads, al
though he has received boxing mater
ial for As carloads, which would make
the total consideration S12,750. He
NAV receive more than that, as the
contract of sale provides that If the
fruit shall sell at an advance OF the
price agreed upon, Mr.. Richards is to
receive 10 per cent of the advance.
The output of the orchard last year
was 80 carloads.

Has Fine Hogs.

Ed Vahlberg has solved theproblem
of how to keep the boys on the farm
to his own satisfaction. His plan is
simple: To give thee boys an inter-
est in the farm. And you never saw
boys so enthusiastic over farm work
as his two boys, Charley ami Dave.
They attend all the farmers institutes
and are students of modern farm meth
DDS. Young Dave is particularly inter-
ested in pure-bred hogs. He owns a
fiue Poland China SOW that is the
mother of litter of pigs thai would
not be ashamed to appear in the best
of hog society. They are all aristo-
crats-Dave would scorn any other
kind.

CELEBRATION A BIG
SUCCESS
Weather Was Ideal-Large Well
Behaved Crowd Present
Fine Program.

While Emmett has held many more
pretentious and elaborate Fourth OF
July celebrations in times past
than that of this year, none has been
more highly enjoyed, and none has
been attended by happier, better
dressed and well-behaved crowd The
day was ideal-a bright sky, cool
breeze that tempered the suns rays
and freedom from dust. The rains that
had previously fallen had made ey-
erything fresh and clean, and nature
was in her best bib and tucker, as
if trying to vie with the bright, fresh
and happy faces of the crowd. 1t
was safe and sane" celebration.
In the early hours of the morning,
there was a bombardment of small
fire crackers, but before noon the sup
ply was exhausted. Not single
accident was reported.
The parade started soon after 10
O'Clock, with Kenneth L. Holder as
marshal Of the day. Emmett's splen-
did concert band led and following
them came the G.. A. R., w. r. c.,
the Boy Scouts and Camp Fire Girls
in their natty uniforms, a pretty
float by the U. A. Club drawn by
Misses Lucille Larkin, Myram Slim
son, Marjorie Knee, Laura McProud,
Margaret Whiteside and Josephine
Martin-as handsome and bright
faced and sweet little misses as can
be found anywhere. The remainder
of the parade was made up of gaily
decorated automobiles and bicycles.
The program of music and speech
es at the schoolhouse grounds occupi-
ed the time until noon, and every num-
Der was of patriotic nature, from the
salute to the flag as it was hoisted to
the top of an improvised pole and
was kissed by the sun and caressed
by the breeze, to the last selection by
the band. The invocation was given
by Rev. C. L. Bent. Mayor Cum
mings spoke on "The Unity of the
Community" His was thoughtful
address He called attention to the
need of concerted action of the peo-
pie in the solution of problems that
confront municipalities, and cited in
stances of how by united effort mis-
cities had been turned into
models of efficient government.
r. B. Wilson spoke of the Social
Life of the Community" and j. w.
Tyler made an eloquent address on
the patriotism of the Community"
both of which were listened to atten-
lively.

KUHNs FAIL FOR MILLIONS
Banking Houses Close and Property
in Hands of Receiver.

Mondays dailies announced the
failure of the Kuhn Brothers of Pitts
burg, and the placing of their exten-
sive irrigation, power and other inter-
ests in the hands of receiver. The
news was received here, and no doubt
all over Idaho, with sorrow. This
syndicate has been the largest factor
in the development of this state.
Their large interests in Idaho will
not be effected, it is asserted, as
practically all the enterprises which
the Kuhns have been engaged in
constructing and financing have been
completed and are doing business.
In the following editorial comment
on the failure the Statesman gives
expression to sentiments which will
meet with hearty response from
large majority of thee people of
Idaho:
Everyone in Idaho, and many out
side, will horte that the Kuhns come
out from under the financial cloud
in better shape tim is indicated now.
"They have been empire builders
here and progressive aids to city and
state development at many points in
this nation.
1T is a pity that the men who do
things, who make it possible for 9th
ers to acquire homes, who provide
pay rolls for thousands upon thou
sands of men, who bring life and
progress where before there was in
activity, should be dealt blow such
as has befallen these men. Evident
ly enterprise does not always bring
reward; but if the Kuhns shall rise
from the wreckage and gain perma-
nent success there will be no more
rejoicing anywhere than out here in
Idaho.
'The effect here will not be felt
disadvantageously so far as the Kuhn
enterprises are concerned
"They are completed. They will
go on under the receivership.
"The individual may go down, but
the mighty engines the Kuhns put
into life will go on forever.

The mayor and city council on Mon
day decided not to serve notice of in

system of the Idaho-Oregon Light &

that in his judgment it would be UNI.

VALUE OF THE SILO.
1t Has Become a Factor in Stock
Feeding That Cannot be Ignored

! The silo has become factor il
stock feeding that cannot be ignored
1t is to the stock feeder a goose that
lays the golden egg. The silo is a
safe insurance policy against disas-
ter in feeding both winter and sum-
mer
Primarily, the silo is especially in
tended to preserve roughages such as
corn, milo, Kafir, or any of the sor-
ghums. The silo not only preserves
the grain, which amounts TO approx
imately 50 to 63 per cent of the nu-
trient value of the plant, but it pre-
serves in succulent form the stalk,
leaves, husks and tassel which rep
resents from 81 to SO per cent of the
feeding value of the plant.
Where corn cannot be successfully
grown, or the crop is lost because of
adverse conditions, the other feeds
mentioned can be relied upon. Kaffir
cane and milo are drouth resisting
and are rarely ever complete failures.
The feeds referred to should not be
placed in the silo when in a succulent
state, and if the silo is of the right
construction and the canning is prop
erly done, practically all the nutri--
ents are preserved.
Silage can be used in the winter
or summer. If care is taken to keep
it well protected with mulch blank
ct, it will not deterioate, for a num-
Der of years. By having a summer
silo the farmer protects his stock
against drouth, contingency that
should not be overlooked.-K Kansas
