In 1857 feet of rough shop lumber
at one load. Several loads of 300
and 1850 feet had been received but
Henry's load skinned them all by
over 500 feet. While we did not
see the load we are told 1t looked
almost as large as q load of hay
With the snow roads almost gone
1t is not likely Henry's record will
be beaten and so far as we know
this is the largest load Of rough lum
Der ever hauled to town with foul

1t would be easy to haul more, bu
to control the load going down hill
and to keep from upsetting is the
problem.

YOUR OWN COMFORT.

People as a rule neglect themsel-
yes one way or another. 1t is a
common thing for people to try to
read or sew when their eyes are so
weak as to be unable to accomplish
the desired result. Perhaps a little
advice from a friend would awaken
some of these people to the danger
they are walking into. They don't
seem to understand that they are
cruel to the most tender and delicate
organ they possess. When one can
see well in the distance, but has diff
ficulty in seeing clear nearby, as in
reading, writing, sewing, etc., 1t shows
that certain muscles in the eyes have
been weakened by sickness or age
and should be assisted by glasses.
The wise thing to do is to have a
specialist examine the eyes. II
glasses are needed. you wear them
when you wish to see objects nearby
only. 1t is not necessary to veal
glasses constantly when your close
vision only Is bad or defective.
Some people are under the impress
sion that when they go to a special
lst about their eyes, glasses are al
ways prescribed to be worn constant
ly. This Is not so. But the majority
of people being so ignorant about the
mechanism of the eyes SO weaken
them that glasses should be worn
constantly For honest advice about
your eyes see DIR. Jackson, the Eye
sight Specialist-in A. & F. Block

GLAD HE GOT BACK

A. L. Slichter sends the Globe the
following humorous letter from Seat
tie written by farmer who has tried
two years of farming in Canada, to
his local paper just after his return
home. Whether any of Idaho coun-
tvs citizens who tried the northland
have had similar experiences or not.
it is worth reading. The letter says:
Mr.. Editor:
We got back home from Canada
last week and / want to inform you
that things look good to US now.
When we left here two years ago
We could not see anything around
worth while, but after Ieaping wheat
two seasons behind a snow pillow, and
stalking out the COW with an icicle
all one summer, We are glad to 6 t
back into a land where post holes
can be dug without training a badger
to do the work.
They told us that we could pick dol
lars off every little bush up in Can
ada, so we took some grain sacks and
went up. We have not got even the
sacks now. OF course we did not
know much about their way of farm
ing, and we did not find out until
We had decided to leave.
You see, they SOW wheat on the
snow in order to get 1t in early
enough, and depend on the hail
storms to beat it into the ground.
By that time it is just right to fence
the new pasure-if you are good at
digging In frozen ground. Then come
the two weeks of summer, and when
the first snow falls it Is time to
cut grain. The government Is very
good to everybody. They give you
q quarter section of land that it
takes about five years to get ac-
quainted with, the summers are so
short. The soil consists of two inch
ee Of sand and six feet Of frost, in
summer, and all frost the rest OF the
time. Grass grows three inches tall
and they call 1t hay when it is cut
Chickens lay three eggs year on
an average, mostly in the summer
The incubator is hung up over the
stove, for they keep the kitchen
stove going all the year round.
They live fairly well up there, but
the only luxury consists of mince pies
mad out of dried apples and jack
rabbits. potatoes have to be wrap
ped In fannels and put near the hot
water bottle in January. The prin-
cipal occupation of the people is feed
ing the stove, although they let up
little In July for rest while they
are putting in their crops.
The only thing up there that is
plentiful Is snow and clothes. The
men wear four pairs of pants and
the women-well, they bundle up
some, too. The only real nice thing
Is the sunshine. In June 1t shines
Is hours and 80 minutes out of every
"a hours, and in December you can
occasionally see the sun for an hour
or two if you watch out. Nearly all
animals and part of the people hi
bernate-it makes the time fly faster.
We have rented a farm here and
If we can get used to the warm eli
mate again, we will buy lot in the
Cemetery and settle down, for we
shall never wander from this goodly
land again to seek our fortune in a
foreign country.
