Little Beans The Best

John Wade returned last Friday
from a short trip to Seattle. Mr..
Wade reports the coast towns pick
ing up as for business. In speaking
of the beans on the Potlatch, he
states that the Potlatch bean beats
any bean on the market. The whole
sale men of the coast are looking for
a bean of the right size and color
and the little bean raised in this Sec
ton is the one they are buying. The
crop of last year is going on the
market in good shape and brings
the top price. Mr.. Wade thinks
the bean for the farmer of this Sec
ton to raise is the little bean as it
will meet the demands of the coast
trade better than any other size.

Sheriff Lands Crook

Moscow, Idaho, March 18-Want-
ed on two different charges, robbery
and forgery, Sheriff Brown has been
constantly on the alert since October
in an effort to locate Frank Ur-
bsnczyk, a Polander 81 years of
age. who was employed near Pot
latch at the time the alleged crime
was committed. and has just returned
from Minnesota having in custody
the man who was placed under arrest
there 10 days ago by the authorities
Of that city on information furnished
by Sheriff Brown.
Sheriff Brown recently heard of
the whereabouts of Urbanszyk who
was sad to be working on a farm.
AS soon as he was placed under ar
rest he left for that point where he
took the man into custody. En-
route home the prisoner confessed
to Sheriff Brown that he was guilty
of the charges.
Urbanszyk, it is alleged, robbed
the home of a friend, Carl Bershie,
of a draft of 5000, then presenting
it to the bank forged the signature
of Bershie and cashed it. shortly
afterwards disappearing.

SOME MORE NEW
RAILROAD TALK

Reports from parties coming in
from the timber along the head of
the Potlatch river confirm the report
in Sundays issue of the Lewiston
Tribune regarding the work of sur
veyors said to be in the employ of
the Milwaukee. looking for a route
from that section into the Lewiston
country. The reports strengthen
the belief that the surveyors are in
the field looking for an outlet from
that section and that the Potlatch
route through Kendrick to Lewiston
is the most feasible one. The line
has been run from Bowl and has
reached a point in the Potlatch
basin. For the past three years
surveyors have been working along
the head waters of the Potlatch at
different times ane even reaching as
far down as Kendrick without any
definite results toward railroad build
ing. Now that the surveyors work
ing in the field are said to be identi-
fled with Milwaukee interests there
is feeling that if there is any rail-
road building done this year in this
section of Idaho the Potlatch will
see some work done.

BEES ARE MOST PROFITABLE
Only Producers Known to Ausbandry
That Yield Profit Without the
Cost Of Feed.

II people knew what = great source
Of profit Is found In the keeping of
bees and how interesting the work,
there wouldn't be an unused square
foot of ground on any farm In the
United States.
Bees are the only producers known
to husbandry that yield a profit with
out cost of feed. They lnd their own
pasturage. They multiply so rapidly
that they more than pay for the small
initial expense OF housing them, and
the first cost OF equipment is almost
trifiing.
Bee culture may be made profitable
by the children of the farm, or by the
women members Of the family. 1t
may be carried on successfully In con-
junction with the keeping of poultry
or the growing of fruit. In the latter
case, apicult~re Ia found to be a great
help toward more fruit and better
fruit.

CULTURE OF THE MUSHROOM
Particular Work That Many Have
Tried and FaiIed-Caves or Gel
lars Are Best Suited.

While there Is no mystery about
growing mushrooms, 1t is such par.
ticular work that many have tried
and failed. After the beds are planted
1t Is almost entirely a question OF
right conditions of temperature and
moisture. knowledge OF what is
wanted and a careful touch are re-
Quired.
The preparation of the beds also
requires skill which comes from ex-
perience in handling manure. Sew
erai weeks are needed to properly mir
and rot the material and it must be
done in warm weather, or in a warm
room. Caves or cellars are right
places for this work and the winter
Is the best time. 1t is easier to keep
them warm enough than to keep them
cool enough in summer.

NEGOTIATING ALFALFA SEED
Sole Duty Of Bacteria 10 In Gathering
Nitrogen From Air and Turn
Ing Over to Plants.

CBy JOHN f. NICHOLSON, Idaho Elk
pertinent Station.)
The correspondence recently re-
ceived by the Idaho Experiment sta.
ton would indicate that some farmers
have wrong idea as to the use Of
inoculation material for alfalfa and
other legumes. These bacteria ap
piled to the seed have no power to
assist in the termination of the seed,
In increasing the stand OF in correct
ing detrimental influences that may
be operating in the soil. Their sole
duty Is in gathering nitrogen from the
air and turning it over to the plants
on whose roots they grow.
II the soil Is deficient In heterogeneous
fertilizers, therefore, they will enable
the legume to make a good growth
and yield. II the soil, on the other
hand. Is sour or contains alkali, then
these bacteria will be OF little use
Again II poor seed is used, or too
much or too little seed Is sown the
bacteria will not remedy these trou-
bles.
These bacteria need not be used II
the legumes already growing in any
particular soil show the nodules on
the roots. This can be determined by
careful examination OF the roots for
the nodules on them. New ground
is frequently deficient In these bac-
terra and they should be applied arti-
hcially. The Idaho Experiment sta
ton will furnish any farmer of Idaho
the proper bacteria at five cents per
acre, which represents about the cost
OF production.

AS has already been said, the An.
CORA can be bred sufficiently pure for
practical purposes from the stock al
ready in this country and there Ia
no need of further importations for
breeding purposes. Some years ago
however, this was not believed to be
the case and in 1881 the sultan of Tur
key endeavored to preserve for his
dominions the monopoly Of the mohair
trade by prohibiting the expectation
OF the live animal. His example was
followed by South Africa, but it was
too late. Some OF the best blood was
already in America and today other
countries are buying OF us, flocks hav.
ing been shipped recently to Brazil

Various associations have already
been formed for the development OF

as soon as possible. When the 18th.

in April three of the members left
the isthmus to take up their ordi

over, it was felt that they were best

the opening.
