The Thaw case has again been
brought prominently before the pub
lie during the past week through
the columns of the daily press. His
escape from the asylum as noted last
week was soon followed by his cap
ture on Canadian soil, and II legal
hattie is now on over his deporta-
ton to the United States. The
prominence given to this case Is
solely due to the money interests
connected with it, as the principals
in the case were never heard ol
throughout the country prior to the
tragedy. 1t was only common
murder case, but money has caused
it to become of national prominence

extension in the time OF making his pay |
ments approximately equal to the time
which should have been granted in the
first instance.
have heretofore outlined my views as
to the action which the State should take
IN the resuscitation Of those projects
whose failure has placed irrigation devel-
opment under such cloud in this State,
and see no reason at this time why the
Land Board should not lend its good
offices in an effort to induce the irriga-
ton companies to modify their contracts
with the settler in such way as to afford
him proper time in which to make his
payments. In fact, ii seems to me that
il the Land Board can accomplish any
thing in this direction it is clearly its
duty to do 50, and can assure you and the
Others interested that | shall make every
possible effort to be Of service in this
connection, You are at liberty to pub
lish this letter should you 50 desire.
Yours very respectfully,
JoHS NJ. HAINEs,
Governor.
Readers of the Times are familiar
with the attitude we have always
taken on these matters. The fact
that people were brought here too
soon and the consequent failure of
water at the first, has placed bur
dens upon them that cannot be
overcome under the existing con-
tracts, and the only relief seems t.
be in an extension of the time Oi
payments. The matter Of re-hnanc-
ing the project and bringing it into
an irrigation district has been dis
cussed as well as other plans, but
these are matters for the iinancieri
to work out, instead of the average
farmer
We have had no personal fight Il
wage against the company othe
than that they give to the settle
what they had agreed to do unde
their contract. That the averag
settler is unable to meet his pay
ments under the contract is agree
9 by all, and with the wheels OF tn
. state put into motion, we hope
see some plan of extensions pei
:. fected before the time for the nen
annual payment. This is matte
!, that is of interest to all of Us an
should call forth a free discussio
on the part of all. 1t is the onl
:. plan 10y which the tract can hope
: build up, and the sooner it is col
sunmated the sooner we can expe'
!, new settlers to come among us.

strange that landseekers will pass
through as fertile valley as south
ern Idaho to take up holdings in a
country that does not offer them
nearly as good opportunities. There
must be something wrong when a
condition like this exists, and a
remedy should be found to right it,

Don't use milk when eating cherries,
it is an injunction from prominent ply
sicians. Two small sons OF a farmer i'll
Dakota both died from this effect last
week. Physicians declare that cherries
and milk when taken together produce
an acid which causes death.

The Tr-County Fair
Now an Assured
Success.

Every day brings forth some new
developments which tend to indi-
cate the success that awaits the
coming exhibit of the Tri-County
Fair Association at Jerome. Never
before in the history of this section
has so much interest been manifest
ed in an exhibit of this nature, and
this is largely due to the fact that
not only the three counties, but the
various farming sections within the
boundaries of these counties will
make a strong effort to hold first
place in the way of agricultural ex-
hibits.
Not only is the interest in the
forthcoming fair manifested by our
local enthusiasts, but our represen-
tatives in Congress have indicated
their interest in the same by offering
special premiums on various farm
products.
Most prominent among the special
premiums offered is a handsome
loving cup to be given by Ex-Gov.
Gooding as sweepstakes prize for
the best display of farm products
from any of the three counties.
w. L. Coltharp, of Hagerman,
offers a cup for the best display of
farm products from Gooding coun-
ty.
Hon. F. w. Gooding, of Sho-
shone offers a cup for the best farm
display to be competed for by the
Wood River section and the North
Side tract, including Blue Lakes.
H. A. Stroud, of Hagerman, will
give free round trip ticket to the
San Francisco Exposition for the
best individual farm display.
Senator W +. Borah offers a cup
for the best display of any one va
riety of potatoes.
Senator Jas. H. Brady offers five
premiums of $500 each for displays
made by the boys and girls clubs.
/. Congressman Smith offers a cup
for the best individual display of
farm products.
Congressman French offers lib
eral premium for the best assort-
ment of home garden truck.
This is only a small portion of
the special premiums offered, but
they are sufficient to indicate the
: interest that is being taken. A full
list of these will be found in the
Premium List which is now in the
hands of the printer and will be
ready for distribution shortly.
n Don't imagine that ali the inter
# est is being centered in agriculture
# al products. Several special pre-
4 miums have been offered in the poul-
!. try and live stock divisions, while
,s the household, fancy work and Other
v departments come in for their shar,
3 of these premiums.
r. In the meantime the amusement
,r features are not being neglected
t. Workmen are busy this week pre-
r. pairing a race track, and negotia

ECONOMY
Hints
short Cuts to Thrift.

Benjamin Franklin.


One Of the things that can be utilized
BY the thrifty housekeeper is the ever
present. despised string which comes
around bundles and packages. Tie the
strings together, making fairly large
knots and being careful not to trim OF
the ends-the more irregular the better.
Then with pair Of coarse needles knit
into bath mats. If you are fortunate
in having variety Of colors. by judi
cious blending they can be made to
look strikingly like some Of the Turkish
rugs, especially IL you use the gilt cord
which comes around boxes of confec.
tionery. They are not only serviceable.
but have the added merit Of washing
forever. All Of the colors are fast ex-
cept pink. As most Of the strings now
In use in the shops are white the ends
Of the rugs can be made any desired
color. either by dyeing or by making
Of balls Of solid color, costing about 5
cents apiece.
Another economy consists in saving
al the odds and ends Of soap except.
ing the c0arsest kitchen kinds. When
you have about quart put on the
stove to melt, adding pint Of warm
water. As soon AZ these become thor
oughly melted stir in a scant pint Of
oatmeal or oatmeal nakes-the kind
rPed for porridge. Keep stirring until
dtssolved-only q few minutes II hot
then add q tablespoonful Of extract Of
almond. Turn into a pan to harden.
When cool cut into cakes. This soap u

comes rather dark, but It has q cura.
tive property and rapidly heals chapped
hands. rendering them smooth and
white.
Glove fingers make splendid protec-
ton for the stems Of flowers, especially
II the flowers are fresh and worn pin
ned to q white dress. save the fingers,
Insert the Tower stems In them and

q " every woman knows, the lse. Of
stockings are being torn out contin-
ually to the detriment Of her, patience
and pocketbook. But do not discard
the stockings. no matter how ba1iiy
torn. Lay two together, fold over and

HOW TO WASH BLANKETS.

You must never rub soap upon
wool blankets. and they must
never be put Int water Of DIFF
1erent temperatures.

soap aud boil them In eight
quarts Of water. When It is all
dissolved turn four quarts into
. tub half full Of tepid water.
with Q half cupful ammonia add
ed. Put your blankets in this
and rinse them up and down and
rub them and squeeze them
through the haAds. Unless there
are very bad spots do not rub
them on the board.
After they have been treated
in this way until you are sure
that they are fairly clean put
them In another tub Of water
the same temperature to which
You have added the three quarts
Of soapy water and 60 through
the same treatment a. you did
at first. Take them out and
put them into still another tub
Of water the same temperature
and add to this water the re-
naming quart Of soap. Never.
rinse blankets In clear water.
Put them through the wrinser
and hang them up TO dry in Q
rather warm place-ln the sun
Il possible.
Pull and straighten them into
shape.
II they are very flne blankets
quite q good way to dry them
IL to put them on q curtain
frame and stretch them down;
otherwise you must be very care
full to stretch them and pull
them straight by hand.
Never put anything made of
wool into very hot water, as 1t
fulls and thickens It. If you
have cotton quilts 'like mother
used to make" these can be
laundered very easily If you
have a washing machine (and
surely every woman who has q
large family should have one).
Use the same soapy water made :
a little stronger than was given ,
for washing the blankets and .
put them In the machine and I.
rinse them In clear cold water. .
