Commissioners
To Decide Route
Representative Gathering of Business
Men ard Farmers Put Matter of
Route of Highway up to Com
missioners.

Over one hundred business men 0
Payette and Weiser and farmers liv
ing along the two proposed routes o
the Idaho Pacific highway attended
the meeting held at the Crysta
school house Tuesday evening of this
week.
The meeting was organized by the
election of T. j. Brown as chairman
and S. S. Harralson, Of Weiser, as
secretary.
Miles Cannon, of Weiscr a member
then explained the object of the
meeting and asked for an expression
of those present as to whether the
lower road or the hii road was pre-
ferable as a route.
Considerable discussion ON the
merits of the two routes brought
forth a motion THAI the hill route be
designated the preferable one. This
was amended to leave the matter en-
tirely in the hands CT the commission
epss.
The amendment ard tie motion
wers finally tabled temporarily and
an expression on bonding for the
ccst of construction Of highway in
duiged in. 1t was the sense of the
gathering that both Washington and
Canyon counties bond to the neces-
sary extent to secure the highway.
After this action the meeting voted
10 leave the selection of the route
for the highway entirely with the
state highway commission believing
hat they VII locate it Were it,
will be the greatest good to the
greatest number.

Vale Plays Here Sunday.

Considerable interest centers a.
round the game to be played between
Payette and Vale at Payette on next
Sunday. The last time the boys beat
Vale twice in succession but since
that time have been beaten twice
by Ontario and once by Weiser, Vale
has strengthened up and comes over
to get the game and big end of the
purse. Payette isjust as determined
to keep the money at home and has
been practicing regularly getting
ready to win 1t,

Boys Make
Grewson1e Find
Psyette River Casts Up Corpse
After Several WeeSs-No Clue az
to Identity.

Friday evening OF last week some
small boys swiming in the Payette
river near the small island just be
low the Oregon Short Line Railroad
bridge discovered the body CT child
which had been cast up on the IS
land. The news was brought to town
by one OF the lads and investigation
Disclosed the fact that the body was
that of a four or five months cid
baby girl. 1t was in bad state of
decomposition indicating that 1t had
been exposed to the elements fer
scme time. The body was fully dress
ed, little woolea undershirt stockings
what had evidently been a white
dress and a coat having cape which
looked as though it might have been
blue in color.
Coroner Fred K. Robinson made
an investigation of the case Satur-
dag but could find TO clue as to the
identity of the child. 1t is thought
by some that the child might have
been drowned far up the Payette riy-
er during the early spring and was
brought down on the high waters.
The body was inferred n the GENE
terry here and effort win be made to
find out the identity OF the little one

ETERNAL VIGILANCE.

Constant watchfulness is neoeSs-
airy, however. and the trees should
be carefully looked over nearly every
day so that blighted twigs may be
cut out before they in turn become
sources of infection, and before the
blight can work down into the main
limbs
Care should also be taken not to
overstimulate the trees by excessive
irrigation, and wherever blight is
prevalent only enough water for
proper irrigation should be used, and
the flow of sap kept as regular as
possible"

Protect Trees
From Blight
Inspector Macy Sounds Word of
Warnins-Ureee Growers to Fight
The Blight and Protect Fruit Trees.

State Horticultural Inspector Macy
I is sending out an urgent appeal to
fruit-growers to wage relentless war
at this time against the blight which
promises to be unusually bad because
/ OF the repeated raiIs. Speaking on
this subject he says:
''The spreading of this dangerous
enemy to the apple and pear trees
has been greatly stimulated by the
recent rains and every orchard owner
should make daily inspection CT his
trees and cut out every twig or limb
that is attacked by the blight He
should also make a careful search for
hold-oyer blight cankers, which are
the source of the infection Of the
young twigs, and cut cut these can
kers in a thorough manner, disinfect-
ing the cut with bichloride of mer-
curry so that no reinfestaticn of the
cut may occur. If these precautiol-
airy measures are not taken serious
damage to the orchard ard loss of
trees will result.
PEAR BLIGHT is BAD.
"The pear blight attacks both ap-
pie and pear trees and is also known |
as fire blight. twig blight and blcs-
som blight. 1t is a bacterial disease
which is stimulated by rainfall or ex- |
cessiye irrigation early in the SUNNI
er. The bacteria over winter in the /
form of cankers or blight spots cn 4
the larger limbs or trunks Of apple \
spur blight and fire blight are all
caused by the bacteria from these old
cankers being carried to the twigs,
fruit spurs or water sprouts by bees,
birds, flies or other insects. When
the sap is flowing freely syrupy ex-
ldation comes frcm the cid blight /
eankers, each drop of which coatains
millions Of the bacteria. /
DIRTY LITTLE BEES.
This exudation attracts bees and
Insects OF all kinds, which in alight-
.DS on IHe SdUheES anu lAeH 4Ag luS
% the blossoms or twigs, scatter the
bacteria all over the orchard. At this
season of the year the young growth
S most susceptible of attack as it
,ffers easier access for the bacteria
han the old growth. If these cid
:ankers are cut and and the cuts ster
nzed and painted over the main SOU
ce of infection is removed, and by
utting out the new growth wherever
he blight has found lodgment its
ontrol will be found comparatively
asy.
ETERNAL VIGILANCE.
Constant watchfuhess is neceSs-
ry, however. and the trees should
e carefully looked over nearly every
ay so that blighted twigs may be
ut out before they in turn become
ources of infection. and before the
