TURN ON THE LIGHT.
Van Wyck Newspaper Forces Land
Board to Cancel Illegal Sale Of Land

Early in January last the Van Wyck
Times published these facts:
1.-THE state land board advertised a
sale of state land to be held at Van
Wyck and adjourned the sale until the
train on the Idaho Northern from the
south could arrive.
1.-The train on the Idaho Northern
was late and did not arrive until 9
o clock Thursday morning, January /,
1914. The agent of the state land
board, Mr.. Robinson of Boise and II.
c. Shellworth, field man for the Boise
Payette Lumber Company. came in on
the train and Mt once proceeded to the
school house at Van Wyck, and there
between the hours of and 3 O'Clock in
the morning of January l, 1914, sold
several hundred acres of state land.
And at that dark hour of night
when all honest men tire supposed to
be in bed this shady deal took place.
''The state land board in ordering
sale of state land in Long Valley in
the dead of winter made q great mis-
take, if not worse; for all land offered
for sale was covered with snow and
the rigid weather made it almost in
accessible at this season of the year.
"And for the land agent to adjourn
a lane. sale until 3 clock in the morn
ing looks to us as if there was some
thing rotten in Denmark
''Of course being only Of the com
mon herd, perhaps we do not under
stand the mighty ways of business of
our illustrious state land board But
to our way of thinking their methods
smack of fraud, and we do not believe
that any business man would do his
own private business in this way.''
This land deal was ratified by the
state land board but when the Nampa
Record and the Capital News added
their protest to that Of the Van Wyck
Times and aroused the people to the
real iniquity OF the proceeding, the
land board backed up and cancelled
the sale. This deprived the Boise
Payette Lumber Company Of some
much coveted timber land.

THE WAY TO REDUCE MEAT BILL.

For some reason or other live sheep
and lambs are selling in all the big
markets at a much lower price than
steers or hogs. The explanation of this
seems to be, that large part Of the
people are not in the habit of eating
sleeps meat. 1t is hard to give a rea-
son for this, for in all other countries
mutton and lamb are VERY popular
foods. While the people of this coun-
try only consume about seven pounds
of mutton annually, the people of Great
Britain consume an average Of twenty
six pounds. After long investigation
the United State Department of Agri-
culture found that mutton and lamb
were highly satisfactory meat foods,
and they strongly urged the public to
use more of this meat. In Bulletin
526, the Department of Agriculture
says. Judged by its composition, pala-
tibility, wholesomeness, digestibility,
relative cost and the number of ways
in which it can be prepared for the
home table, mutton is an important
foodstuff, which is well worth the at
tention of the housekeeper who wishes
to provide her family with an attrac-
tive and palatable diet at reasonable
COST
This bulletin gives about 100 recipes
for cooking motion and lamb and il
will be sent free to any one who will
drop a postal to the Department of
Agriculture, Washington, d. c., and

oUM-OUM BULLETS AT VERoUN

LEIPZIG. Nov 12.-Mr. W. Scheuer- mann, correspondent of the Leipzig Neueste Nachrichten," in lengthy re- port of his visit to the battlefield around Verdun refers to the use Of dum-dum bullets by the French army ID the following manner:
 Behind the town of Barancy (the greater part of which has been de- stroyed by fire caused by previous battles), we found newly made graves of killed Frenchmen. The contents of a knapsack lay strewn over the red clay mound above the grave. We opened some of the well filled cart ridge pouches and found the copper points of the cartridges had been fled off.
 Again in the trenches between .Rouyray and Ecouvies on the French frontier plenty of French cartridges in their original wrappers were found. which had been left bonlud by the fleeing troops. We opened these packages and again found these bull lets that had their points flattened down or filed of
 "A great store of dum-dum bullets was found at Montmedy Should any doubt have hitherto been possible re- garding the responsibility of the chief commanders of the French army for the providing of these bullets, such doubt was absolutely removed by this discovery at Montmedy. The dum-dum bullets were found in officially sealed packages in light green wrappers. bearing the following inscription:
 "8 Paguets Cartouches de Stand NILE 1906 Wis 1912 Lot No "A.
 Apparently, the inscription points to the obsolete French bullets in- cased in lead, which during the time when the copper bullets were intro duced in France were modemized in this cruel manner"

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luXur:- ant remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur re- cipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to- use tonic, costing about fifty cents large bottle, at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" thus avoiding a lot of muss.
 While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful we all desire to retain our youth full appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell be- cause it does it so naturally, so evenly You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared After another ap- plication or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and lux uriant and you appear years younger.
