tically all the inhabitants of the
community with the telephone ex.
change from which the subscribers
received warning Of the rush of wa
tiers. The exchange operator Miss
Barbara Reinkens, being true wes-
tern girl, called up a half score OF
cowboys, whom she knew would risk
their necks for her, and sent them
scurrying like modern Paul Reveres
into the byways to warn all who
could not be reached by telephone.
Thus does the march of modern chi
valry keep pace with the wonder
working telephone.
Thirty years ago the telephone was
a toy. Today more than three thou.
sand young women in the states of
Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho.
Utah, New Mexico and Arizona make
their living operating the telephone
exchanges for one company, not to
speak of the thousand or so others
who are employed in private exchang-
es. The Mountain States Telephone
and Telegraph company, which oper-
ates in these states, maintains a
training school or telephone operat-
ors and the officials of the company
say that the course fitting a telephone
operator for her duties, is equal to
the course Of study in many schools
for mental improvement. The faculty
of memory is very highly trained and
the faculty of attention is developed
in telephone operator as in no ot1.
er occupation. The operators also
acquire fair knowledge of the cleo
trical apparatus used in the telephone
circuits and altogether develop pow
ers OF mind far In advance of the

task is figuring up bridge scores or

ALFALFA AND CORN FOR HOGS

Hogs running on alfalfa should re.
ceive grain rich in carbohydrates, for
alfalfa is rich in protein. It may be
said that some skim milk or tankage
may be fed to advantage, but good
growth will be made by feeding at
least two pounds of corn per day per
100 pounds Of live weight In other
words, hogs running on alfalfa ought
to get all the corn they will eat up
clean, with little skim milk and
shorts, If the best and highest yields
are to be obtained.

then that he knew of no project in
Idaho or Oregon, that was equal to
this, the price of water, the kind of
soil and all things taken into con-
sideration. We certainly had the best,
the price OF $500 per acre for the
five thousand acres which we have or
gained under, and as our water sup
Fly will permit we will have the en-
tire valley in short time. All the
land remaining out when we organ
lied will come in now and our dis
trict will be in better working order
with more people and good level head
ed men which we have to represent
us on the board of directors, there
is no reason why we cannot forge
to the front. But of all things bar
out the everlasting knocker, he is of
mo use anywhere, if anything comes
up which is not good for the pro-
ject the people one and all should
know OF it and get out, come to-
gether and find out what is wrong and
take steps to right it at once, not
one or two get together and make
a mountain out of a mole hill, but
come out publicly with your grief,
for this is the peoples project, the
people are the land owners and they
are living here and represent their
ownership in person. So now we
must get busy and make things move
along and when 1914 comes in have
our dam and our bitches built and
have so new families in our valley.

CANYON COUNNY
Will BE IN line

The people of Canyon county appre-
ciate good roads. They have taken
advantage of the law enacted at a
former session to organize four good
roads districts. 1t is certain that this
county will be among the first to take
advantage of the recent legislation.
Good roads are essential to the pros
perity and growth of any community,
and the fact is recognized by the peo-
pie of this county. There may be diff
ferences of opinion as to the best
kind o roads or as to the practical
bility of undertaking good road con-
struction at the present time but as to
the ultimate benefit and advantage
there is no difference of opinion. The
recent laws, the provisions of which,
will be found in another column of
this issue of The Tribune should be
thoroughly understood. The fact that
but will also lend cheap labor, which,
should materially reduce the cost OF
construction.
Investigations have shown that the
average horse can exert at walking
pace a traction pull of about one
eighth to one-tenth of his weight. As
Stunning this to be about the correct
value, what effect will the kind of road
have upon the load the horse is able
to pull? On an asphalt pavement il
requires thirty to seventy pounds pull
to move ton, on a sand road 100 to
200 pounds pull to move the same
load. We might conclude that the
limits are as 80 to ESQ pounds for the
best to the poorest surface. This one
horse, say, of 1900 pounds weigh
could draw load of five tons on the
smooth alphalt pavement and onl,
1000 pounds on the soft sand road
These figures are only approximately
correct, since they are average val.
ues, but sufficiently close to give u:
some idea of the relative value O.
good and poor road surfaces. Before
any district or state can fully realize
the value of good roads special actor
on this part must be necessary. Thi!
action must embrace three things:
nonpolitical organization whose pur
pose is to provide good roads, a prac
| teal and economical construction ant
maintenance.

FORTY MILLIONS
FOR GOOD ROADS

l speaking of good roads legislation
of the recent session OF the legislature
Mr.. Theodore Turner, president OF the
State Automobile association, says:
Few people in Idaho realize the
far-reaching importance of the good
roads legislation enacted by the
Twelfth session." said Mr.. Turner
1.-The legislature has enacted three
measures of extreme importance to
the highway cause in Idaho. The
first was the Koelsch highway bill,
providing for system OF road con-
struction, special auto licenses to go
back into the road building fund, and
utilizing prison labor; the second was
the Shattuck bonding bill providing a
fund of 100000, and the third JOINT
memorial to congress asking that a
grant of $4,000 acres of timber land
be given by the federal government to
encourage the highway work in this
state"
"These $4,000 acres, if congress
makes the grant, will be of almost in
estimable value to the state, accord
ing to Mr.. Taylor, who believes that
when properly husbanded, they will
yield a substantial income.
1.-THE commission should see to il"
said Mr., Turner, that the construc-
ton of a series of trunk lines of high
ways throughout the state begins at
the earliest possible date. These trunk
lines should open up all parts OF the
tsate and should not be confined to
any single portion. If this work is
done properly, more funds will come
stadily to continue extensions, until
we have a network of good roads
throughout Idaho.
Three Steps Necessary.
IF the trunk lines have men-
toned are properly constructed, 1t
will not be long before connecting
lines are extending from them in all
directions. AS fast as we satisfy the
federal government that We are dead
in earnest in the matter, we will re-
ceivc tangible encouragement from
them in substantial form. l honestly
believe that with the work properly
done, we ought to obtain from the
national government 100000 acres OF
agricultural and timber lands. If this
is done and handled rightly, it will
give Idaho, together with Other
! sources of revenue, between $3O,UO,-
600 and $4O,OOO.OOO to be expended
during the next ~ years in the con-
! struction of good, permanent high
ways. What this will mean in econ
omic saving, industrial, agricultural
and commercial development car
scarcely be estimated"

Organ Recital Appreciated.

The Easter organ recital given by

was one of the most enjoyable Of the

dience very much indeed. A large
number attended the recital in spite
of the inclemency of the weather.

CHARGES FRAUD
DURING BAZAAR

Criminal charges of grand lar
ceny, resulting from an alleged
fraud conducted at the recent
fair of the st. Joseph's society
conducted at South Tacoma,
were sworn out by Deputy rPose-
cutor A. B. Comfort this morning
against John, Tony and Annie
Warwick, residing In the South
End. 1t is declared that the
Warwicks obtained SIS worth of
goods at the fair through fraud.
Five-cent tickets were sold at
the fair, redeemable in goods on
sale by the society. 1t is alleged
that the members of the Warwick
family printed number of forged
tickets, and redeemed them for
nearly half of the entire stock of
goods on sale.
