SERVICE FOR BATTLESHIP
NEVADA IS SOON TO BE PURCHASED

The Silver service committee, on
sisting of Governor eddie, Lieuten-
ant Governor Ross n Secretary of
State Brodigan, have just completed
arrangements for the purchase of a
silver service for the U. S. S. Nevada.
In making the designs for the U.
S. s. Nevada silver service the de-
signer has followed a free %interpre-
tation of the characteristic American
style, the colonial, but mingled with
the classic forms of this style are de-
signs strongly characteristic of the
elements to which the ship belongs.
These features are sea-weed, waves
and other nautical emblems engraved
on one side with a scene emblematic-
al of national significance are shown
in eagles heads and in the seals of
the state of Nevada and of the navy.
The punch bowl will have a capac-
ity of fifteen gallons, will be decorat-
ed on one side with a scene emblem
atical of the industries of Nevada and
on the other side a representation OF
the U. S. S. Nevada. This bowl will
be mounted on a plateau or stand
bearing the inscription "U. S. S. Ne
vada." A small rope moulding is
used on the base of the bowl and
plateau, this being emblematic of the
navy. The handles of the bowl are
eagles heads surmounting the shield
of the United States. The great seal
of the state of Nevada also appears
and on the reverse side will be the
seal of the navy. Twenty-four punch
cups accompany the bowl as we'll as
a punch ladle.
The center piece. oval in shape,
rises from a foot very similar to that
of the punch bowl. The shield of
the United States appears at the ends
of the center piece fianked by cornu-
copias, emblematic of plenty. Sea
weed and wave decorations are re-
peated, both at the base and flank
ing the seal of the state of Nevada
and the navy seal on the reverse.
The compotiers bear the same
wave and sea weed decoration and
rope moulding with the seals of the
state and navy on the flange.
The ca%ndelabra, eve lights each,
wired for electricity, with shades and
fittings, appear rising gracefully from
a foot covered with sea weed and
wave decorations.
The water pitcher. tray and COB
lets have sea weed decorations and
the pitcher bears a conventional dol
phin for a handle. The seals of the
state and navy appear on opposite
sides of the pitcher tray and also on
opposite sides of the pitcher. The
seal of state appears on each goblet.
A tea-set of five. pieces, kettle, cof-
fee-set of three pieces and tray are
included in the service. On the large
water and c~offee-set, tray dolphin
and shield handles are used with the
shield of the state of Nevada and of
the United States. On the coffee-set
tray will be a picture of Abraham
Lincoln executed in flat chasing, also
the inscription: Presented to ehe U.
S. S. Nevada by the B~attlebOrn State
of Nevada" The large water pitcher
will contain an agricultural cen and
on the pitcher tray will be a repre-
sentation of the capitol building

THEN

One hundred and eighteen
years ago today the worlds
first vaccination by a physician
was performed. On that day
DR.. Edward Jenner, an English
doctor, who had devoted 80
ears to studying the subject,
drew lymph from the hand of
Sarah Newles, a milkmaid who
had contracted cowpox while
milking cows. He applied it to
the arm of an eight-year old
boy, named James Philips. 1t
was the beginning of the con-
quest of smallpox. At that
time smallpox was causing
one-tenth of all the deaths of
the human race. 1t had de-
stroyed or disfigured more
that a fourth of mankind. 1T
killed more than $4,000, 600
Europeans during the eigh-
teenth century. The absence
of pock-marks in those days
was a means of Identification.
The London police department
issued the following description
of a criminal sought in the
seventeenth century: "Thoms
Bayly, a short, burly man,
fair and fresh-colored, without
pock-marks 81
Before the discovery of vac
cination, smallpox was as pre-
valent as bronchitis is today.
A half century before Jenner
gave his discovery to the world
the dread disease wiped out 20
per cent of Greenland's pOpula-
ton in a single year. The
Spanish explorers carried it to
the new world. and three years
after Cortez had landed in
Mexico over 100000 natives
had fallen victims to the
scourge. More North Amer
can Indians fell before its in
yasion than fell before the
white mans gun. Their mum
her is estimated as high as g.
zoe $1,000.

MOSCOW PEOPLE NARROWED
Letters Received Telling OF Storm Hor.
rOrs of Southern California.

Some weeks ago Mrs. Jerome j.
Day, Mrs. M. j. Shields and Miss Mad
eleine Shields went from Los Angeles
to Santa Barbara to receive the new
Shields auto and drive back in it to
Los Angeles. They had scarcely ar
rived at their destination when the
terrible storm that broke upon the
whole coast struck Santa Barbara,
and up to date the party is still ma
rooned there, unable to return to their
winter home farther south.
Letters just received give some no
ton of the frightful damage done.
Bridges were washed away, paving
ruined Lawns were covered knee
deep with mud; one house was wash
ed in the ocean, a huge retaining
wall was carried away.
The Hotel Arlington in which the
Moscow party was staying was flooded
with water that ruined floors and fur
niture Two persons driving in a
machine got out because they could
not make it run, and were drowned
during their struggles to reach place
of safety.

SMITH IS ENTHUSIASTIC
Pleased With Prospects of Federal Aid
For Idaho Reclamation Projects.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Congress-
man Smith is enthusiastic over the
probability of the enactment of SEN
ator Borah's bill extending the time
within which payments may be made
on reclamation projects to 20 years
and also the bill to make an advance
to the reclamation fund of one hundred
million dollars in order that the num-
erous projects, several of which are
in Idaho may be undertaken.
Mr.. Smith is advocating a five-year
period within which no payment will
be required by settlers on reclama-
tion projects in order that they may
get their farms under cultivation and
thus be better prepared to meet the
payments as they come due.
The senators and representatives
from the northwestern states are ta-
king keen interest in the proposed leg
islation, which, it is believed will have
the approval of the secretary of the in
terror.

WORK
GETS FEDERAL AID
SENATOR BRADY ACTIVE In SUP
PORT OF MEASURE ORIGINAT-
ING In THE HOUSE.
VIII Aid Idaho Institutions and BE
Greatly Beneficial to the Farmer
in Idaho.

WASHINGTON, Feb 5.-The house
bill No. 1851, To provide for coopera-
tive agricultural extension work be-
| tween he agricultural colleges in the
several states receiving the benefits
of an act of congress approved July
second, eighteen hundred and sixty
two, and of acts supplementary there
to, and the United States department
of agriculture, is now before the SEN
ate and wi doubtless he enacted into
law before many days.
Senator Brady is very ardent sup
porter of this bill, and as a member cf
the committee on agriculture and for
estry, to which the bill was referred,
used his influence to have the house
bill substituted for the reason that it
gives a larger appropriation for the
states for agricultural purposes
In speaking of the matter, Senator
Brady said, "This is one of the best
bills congress can pass. Our state is
already doing a large amount of work
along cooperative lines in co-ordina
tion with the national government and
this bill will enable us to have an in
structor in every county in the state.
This will be especially beneficial to
Idaho, for the reason that there is
such a great difference in climatic
conditions in altitude, and the
amount of rain fall, that it is almost
necessady to have an experiment sta
ton, or at least special Investigations
and instructions in every county in
the state. We have legislated for the
benefit of almost everybody else, and
now it is good to know that we are go
ing to do something for the farmer.
l have worked hard and earnestly for
passage ofs this bill, and | believe it
will be a great benefit to the farmers
Of our state"

ZERO WEATHER
STRUCK MOSCOW
COLD SNAP VISITED THIS SECTION
LAST NIGHT AND TODAY-24
BELOW RECORDED.
Reports Vary as to Standing Of Tenn
perature-C Condition Seems General
Throughout Inland Empire.

The first real cold snap of the sea-
son struck Moscow and vicinity last
night when the thermometer is var
iously reported as standing at any
where between and "a below zero.
In the absence of official reports on
the temperature, it was almost i'm
possible to secure a perfect check to-
day, except from the university where
the low temperature is recorded by a
government instrument The low
point as reported from that source
was eight degrees below
That the temperature varied at diff
ferent points in and near Moscow is
indicated from various reports sent
TO this office. From the county farm
| it is reported to have recorded at "a
degrees below. At point one mile
east of town it is said the tempera-
ture reached 20 below and at point
south of the city to have reached Ic
below. In Moscow at several points
on Main street the temperature hover
ed around 10 below most of the early
morning hours.
According to reports reaching the
city from outside sources the cold
wave is general throughout the In
land Empire. At Lewiston furry of
snow preceded a fall of the temper
ature last night, while along the
Clearwater line drop of 10 to 15 de-
orees is recorded. The Camas Pra-
irie is also suffering from the cold
weather and a heavy snow and trains
are operating with difficulty.
At Bovill the weather is reported
mild in comparison to more severe |
weather at Harvard and Potlatch,
while along the Potlatch canyon at
Kendrick and Juliaetta light snow and |
cold weather is marked.
The recent heavy fall of snow in
Moscow and vicinity has made sleigh
ing good and teaming is reported to
be excellent. Many are taking advan-
age of the good sleighing to get their
wood out from the mountains. No
lamage is reported to telegraph or
telephone wires today, slight troubles
having been promptly adjusted. The
prospects seem good for a continuance
If the cold weather for several days.
