IDAHO HAS BIG SUM NJ
COMING FROM U. S.

Governor Haines has been notified
by the treasury department of the
United States that there is $59,227S1
at the disposal Of the state of Idaho.
This amount is the states share Of
the receipts of the forest reserves
within the state during the past fis-
cal year.
By the terms of an act passed ia
1908 the state in which the reserve
is located is allowed five per cent Of
all the receipts of all the reserves
in its territory. This amount is to
be divided by the legislature among
the various counties in which the
reserves are located and is to be
used for the public schools and high
ways within those counties.
There are q forest reserves in the
state of Idaho and nearly every coun-
ty in the state, except some in the
extreme southeast, will participate in
tho receipts.

IMPORTANCE OF ROAD
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

The first and last commandment in
earth road maintenance is to keep
the surface we'll drained. To insure
good drainage the bitches should be
kept open, all distractions removed,
and a smooth crown maintained. Ex-
cept for very stony soil the road
machine or scraper may be used very
effectively for this work. The ma
chine should be used once or twice
a year, and the work should be done
when the soil is damp, SO that it
will pack and bake into hard crust.
Wide and shallow side bitches should
be maintained with sufficient fall
and capacity to dispose of surface
water. These bitches can in most
places be constructed and repaired
with road machine.
All vegetable matter, such as sods
and weeds, should be kept out Of tho
road, as they mako a spongy sur
face, which retains moisture. Clods
are also Objectionable, for they socn
turn to dust or mud, and for that rea-
son roads should never be worked
when dry or hard. Bowlders or loose
stones are equally Objectionable if a

from that point in.
The matter was concluded last
Tuesday week and car loads of freight
made up at Iona on the siding there

the spur to Lincoln from the st. An

What Would You Do?

There are many times when one
man questions another's actions and
motives. Men act differently under
different circumstances. The ques.
ton is, what would you do right
now if you had severe cold? Could
you do better than to take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy? 1t is highly
recommended by people who have
used it for years and know it's value.
Mrs. o. E. Sargent, Peru, Ind, says,

worth its weight in gold and l take
pleasure in recommending it, For

but do not drag a dry road.
The slope or crown of all eartr
road should be about / inch to the
foot. If the crown becomes too high
it may be reduced by dragging toward
the ditch instead of from it. If tbs
drag cuts too much, shorten the
hitch and change your position or
the drag. If it is necessary to pro.
tect the face of the drag with a
strip of iron, it should be placed
flush with the edge of the drag and
not projecting. A cutting edge
should be avoided, as the main object
in dragging is to smear the damp
soil into position

surface is to be secured.

SmOotn surface is to be secured.
A split-log drag or some similar
device is very useful in maintaining
tho surface after suitable bitches and
cross section have once been secured
This drag can also be used to ad-
on an earth road. The principle in
volved in dragging is that
clays and most heavy soils will puddle
when wet and set very hard when
dry. The little attention that the
nshrdlu cmfwyp etaoin vbgkQ wheno
earth road needs must be given
promptly and at the proper time if
the best results are to be obtained.
In dragging roads only small
amount of earth is moved, just enough
to fill the ruts and depressiors with
a thin layer of plastic clay or earth
which packs very hard so that the
next rain instead of finding ruts, de-
pressions, and clods in which to COL
lect runs off. leaving the surface but
llt1le affected.
The drag should te light ard should
be drawn over the read at an angle
of about As degrees. The driver
should ride on the drag and should
not drive faster than walk One
round trip, each trip straddlipg a
wheel track is usually sufficient to
fill the ruts and smooth the surface.
If necessary, the road should be drag
ged after every bad spell of weather,
when the soil is in proper condition
to puddle well and still not adhero
to the drag. If the read is very bad
it may be dragged when very wet
and again when it begins to dry out.
A few trips over the road will give
the operator an idea as to the best
time to drag. Drag at all seasons,

things, little book, that I am putting
down here, but we do not tell them
to each other. We are afraid that
our confidence will be misunderstood
that those to whom we tell them
will think we are unhappy or that we
do not love our husbands. Every
body is always looking for the motive
behind everything a woman says.
Until the worst comes no woman
with a spark of pride wants anyone
to know that she is Unhappily mar
ried. Even poor Mary will keep from
his mother and father the proofs of
Jacks unfaithfulness until she can
stand it no longer
Some very wise man has said that
'1oVe consists of two things pride
and desire" 1 have almost come to
the conclusion that this is true and
that to women love means more pride
than desire and that to men it means
more desire than pride, consequently
as pride is the passion which lasts
longer and grows upon that which it
feeds and desire is easily filed to
safety women are apt to love long
est and more devOtedly.

Hans Lund, who styles himself

evening, coming from Fort Dodge.
Lund recently started from Manka-

From here he is going to Waterloo
and left for that place about four
o'clock this morning. Lund was a
private in the Danish army before
coming to this country in 1907, and
while in Europe walked over a large
part of the European countries. The
hiker sells little booklet on his
hikes, and in this way earns his liv-
ing. He expects to make Dubuque
Saturday and from there will go to
Cincinnati before striking directly
south. Lund while here visited a

ling the booklet and giving some in

BE PREPARED"
IS THEIR MOTTO
Timely Work of Two Scouts Render
Assistance in Time of
La.
Need.

Just small example of the work
being done by the excellent prepara-
ton of Boy Scouts of America for
American citizenship occurred yes
terday afternoon. On the play
ground at school that foolish and
dangerous game of Crack he-whip''
was being played when the lad on
the end of the whip" George Blair,
was thrown violently to the ground,
falling upon piece of glass which
cut an artery in the arm. Two Boy
Scouts, Gerald Haddox and Hayward
MORGAN, were on the spot in an in
slant and hurriedly made a tourni-
quet from a handkerchief and a
stick, staunching the flow of blood.
These two young knights escorted
the Blair boy to his home on Seneca
street and were returning home
through the alley back of the Anna
Mckee residence when they saw
smoke rising from the shingles of
the kitchen. Hayward ran to the
nearest alarm box while Gerald in
formed Miss Mckee and the neigh
bors of the fire. Then he ran for a
ladder at the H. B. Mckee home,
stripped off his coat and got a pail
of water and was willing and ready
to put out the blaze of any fire on
earth, but Mr.. jacobson who was in
the neighborhood, arrived just then
and made further assistance by the
Scouts unnecessary. They were Of
