Java's Teak Forests,

Teak forests in Java cover 1,4SO,O0C acres, and, as the area reforested is two and half times as large as the area felled in a given time, this magni- ficent stock of timber Is continually increasing. A pest Of the Java teak plantation is alang grass dmpersta arundinacae). In order to prevent the incursioR of this plant, as hoeing is too expensive, the foregters SOW a Iegu- minous plant, luecena glauca, between the rows of teak seedlings. This chokes the alang. keeps the soil clean and en. riches the soil in humus and nitrogen and ultimately disappears with the tn- crease of the forest cover.

schools by the study of. and the lis
tening to, examples of the best music
of all kinds.
In my opinion, music has not yet
received one part OF the attention in
the public schools its importance
merits. Music is a lanuage, and the
most expressive one we have. | am
radical enough to believe that if music
were given as much attention and bde-
lieved in by the authorities to the
same extent as the three Rs neduca-
ton, its influence for good would be
unQuestioned. If we think it worth
while to teach the language of the
heart as well2 This is not a joke,
though some people may think it one.
If music be taught merely as a side
issue, or as a fanciful, graceful ac-
complishment, it is then luxury, and
hardly worth the cost in the schools.
1t would seem as though its import.
ance were not realized and therefore
its possibilities are not understood,
if we deny music place in education.
Music, when the purpose is clearly
kept in mind, is justified in our
schools; it is essentially part of our
nature that should be allowed full de-
velopment, and the schools afford the
best chance because the character is
then forming and all of the best in
fluences are certainly needed. The
study of music is serious one, requIr-
ing all the faculties, and it cannot be
dabbled at if one wishes results mu-
sically or educationally. l hope you
will think music is important enough
to merit publishing this humble de-
tense of it in the schools.
Yours truly,
F. F. BEALE.

FIRST CONTEST COUNT
TAKES PLACE NEXT
MONDAY

Monday, July Is, is the date set for
the hrst count of the Caldwell Tribune
and Merchants Piano contest. In
view of the short time allowed for
each candidate it should not be nee
essary to reiterate the necessity OF
every contestant putting forth her
best efforts in what is termed the
recognition" period of the contest.
1t is obvious that at no season of
the campaign will a little conscien-
tious work be more effective. You owe
1t to your friends to try" if not to
yourself. 1t costs nothing but a little
effort which shows your appreciation
OF the opportunity and the courtesy
and friendly spirit manifested by
those who are watching your progress
more than you imagine.
There are always some surprises
at the first count. Rumors and coun-
ter rumors are Always in the air, but
the wise candidate will give these no
consideration. The main thing is to
lay out a we'll defined campaign.
Don't try to do it all in one day. The
publisher will gladly give you neces-
sary instructions, names of subscrib-
erS and new prospects. Armed with
these you know who you want to see
and see a number each day. Your
success depends upon your ambition.
The interest is growing each day,
the subscribers are picking the ones
they will support, therefore, the first
count is a critical period. A few
thousand votes now mean much.
Hurry! Get busy today; tomorrow
then will be easier.
Subscription and merchant coupons
should be saved by every family. One
coupon has often been the means OF
awarding the beautiful piano. Above
all things start today. The names of
the contestants are as follows

MRS. EFHE CLARKE AND
PARAMOUR ARRESTED
AT BRUNEAU

Several weeks ago Sheriff Robert
con received word from Sheriff Bres-
hears of Canyon county to watch for
man and woman who were wanted
on charge of adultery in that county
A little over week ago Mr.. Rob
ertson arrested young man who an
swered the description of the man
wanted but after talk with the sher-
if he was turned loose.
Yesterday morning Able Robertson
came down town and when passing
the blacksmith shop noticed a man
unhitch a team, preparing to have them
shod, and he recognized the outfit as
the one described in circulars sent
to his father in regard to the runaway
couple. He returned home and i'm
parted the news to his father who
came down town and placed the man
under arrest The woman was found
later at the postoffice, where she had
been left until the team was shod.
The man was placed in jail and the
woman taken to Hyde's Hotel and
placed in charge Of Mrs. Hyde.
The sheriff of Canyon county was
notified and H. D. Carmichael, a dep
uty, cant over last night ard this
morning started for Caldwell with the
two prisoners.
On the 23d of May Mrs. Fife NJ
Clark, the woman in the case, who
lived with her husband on a ranch
near Parma, came to Caldwell and
wrote letter to her husband that she
was never coming back, that she was
s nH,t1farrr.
never look for her as she would never
return home alive.
Her husband who had been left with
two small children, aged three and
FIVE years, Immediately swore out
warrants for the arrest of the couple
The man in the case, Roderick S.
Smith, had been a resident of the vi
cinity for some time and was the pos
SCISSOR of fine team of work horses
and good saddle horse, buck board
ard camping outfit
On the morning of the oath of May
they started from Caldwell and head
ed south, going first to Murphy, from
there to Oreana and on to Grand View
where for the last month they have
been living, the man working in the
bayfield,. After haying was over they
started for Colorado, and had they not
stopped to have the team shod would
probably have made their getaway at
least for time. The officers first got
trace of the couple when a small dog
that started with them returned home
and was seen swimming the Snake
river on the way home Notices de-
scribing the outfit were sent out and
an officer made trip to the Juniper
country and to Jordan Valley but nc
trace of them was found until yester.
day.
Harvey A. Clark, the woman's hus-
band, is willing to take the woman
back, but in talk at the hotel yes
tetrday with the sheriff she says she
would rather die than return to that
sage brush farm" and seems to display
no mother love for her two small
children.
The team and wagon and riding
horse were turned over to Jen Jen-
son, of Grand View, by Smith, witt
instructions to take care of them until
he returns.-Owyhee Nugget.

A Couvanient Device.

A convenient device for hoisting bar
rels. boxes and the like is shown in
figures 10 and II. Place the rope un-
derneath the middle of the vessel. Bring
the ends up and tie an overland knot
as shown. Separate the knot and bring
a half down each side Of the object to
be lifted as shown in the figure. The
ends of the rope may be tied with either
a square or bow-line knot.
There are number Of bitches that
NAV be made for pulling pipes from
wells and other similar purposes. The
scaffold hitch, figure IL, is one of the
best of these. To make the hitch, lay
the long end of the rope along the OBJ
iect with the end projecting in the
direction opposite to that from which
the pull will be made. Make four or
five tight windings about the short end
of the rope and the object. Fasten this
end by bringing it back over the wind
Iings and under the first winding made.
ito use the hitch, pull back across the
windings as indicated. Large ropes
should not be used on small pipes.

gardless Of any strain put upon it is
frequently needed. The bow-line knot is
invaluable for this purpose. To tie it,
make a half hitch near one end of the
rope in such a way that the end of the
rope is on top of the main rope. Pass
this end around some object and bring
1t up through the half hitch as in figure
7. Continue by passing tho end over
and underneath tho main rope. Finish
by bringing the end up and sticking it
down through the half hitch as in. fig
ure 5. Then draw it tight. This knit
is useful for tying a rope around the
horse g neck, for attaching rope to
q clevis and for making loop in which
a person may sit while being lowered
into well.
An improvised pipe wrench is shown
in figure 9. It is suited to any sizt
Of pipe and to any degree of strain
The double end Of rope is wound sew
eral times around pipe as indicated
Another pipe or stick is thrust through
the loop. The free ends Of the rope ar
held while using the device.

IT is surprising how much a rope, If
rightly used, will do to solve some
Of the many difficulties that arise
in the everyday life ON the farm.
Enough Of these important uses are
here pointed out to suggest other uses
that can be made Of this common con-
yenience in farm and shop work
The ends of the rope should be Sc
cured to prevent them from becoming
frayed and unraveled, and to afford
secure hold in use. Some stout twine or
cord should be provided. In case the
strands have become unlaid as in figure
!, lay them up tightly. Make loop in
one end of the cord and lay it along
the rope with the loop extending away
from the end of the rope, as indicated
in figure 2. Start nearly a half inch
from the end of the rope and proceed
to wind the long end Of the cord around
the rope, working away from the end
OF the rope. The windings must be
tight and close together. Finish by
sticking the end of the cord through
the loop, leaving little for slack, as
in figure 8. Now pull steadily on the
other end of the cord until the loop has
been drawn down several windings.
This will fasten the ends Of the cord,
after which cut off both ends about
one fourth inch from the windings.
Some Handy Knots.
This fastening is suitable for hay and
fsr halter ropes 1t is also useful In
msnding split handles of farm and shop
toois. Fine wire may be used in the
sams manner.
The simple overland knot, figure 4, is
used in making other knots here de-
seribed.
One Of the most useful Of everyday
knots is the square knot. To tie it, take
m end Of the rope in each hand. Place
the end in the right hand underneath
the end in the left hand With the
thumb and forefinger Of the right
hand turn the end of the rope that Ii
on top around underneath the othel
eHd. While doing this, use tho thumt
and forefinger of the left hand to turn
The end projecting to the left over to
ward the right as indicated in figure s
Now bring the other end over and un
der this end as shown in figure 6. Tit
knot should be drawn tight by pulling
on both ends at the same time.
This is a splendid knot for tying to
rether the ends of rope or cord O
the same size.
