A sticky fly-paper will almost take
the place of tangle-foot, may be
made by melting one-half pound OF
rosin and adding enough olive, castor
or lard oil to give it the consistency
of molasses. With a brush spread
this mixture on small sheets of wrap
ping paper, leaving about one inch
margin all around. Place two sheets
with the sticky sides together and
when desired for use pull them apart.
This acts as tangle-foot and may be
used to destroy other insects.

The Twin Falls Chronicle says:
THE flat failure of the district court
to make out cases against most of the
men indicted by the Ada county
grand jury makes the whole deal
look more like political jobbery than
ever. Some of the charges under
which indictments were made looked
supremely technical and without
much foundation. The cases which
have gone to the jury so far have re-
suited in acquittals, fair criterion
of the opinion of the unbiased peo-
pie. There has been evident since
the convening of the grand jury that
an effort was being made to discredit
the Republican party A great many
of the people thought that where
there was so much smoke that there
must be fire. But from all indica-
tfons the guilty persons were all elm
mated before the Haines administra-
tion went out of Office. The, rest oil
the smoke has been arising from
political fires stirred up by Democra-

The war in Europe is likely to
teach the Europeans the value OF
corn meal as human food. The de-
mand for it has already boosted the
price of corn in the American mar
kets. This is unfortunate for the
domestic consumers of corn bread
and boiled mush, but there will be
compensations. After the war is
over the Europeans have eaten corn
will continue to eat it, and the fields
OF waving corn on the American
farms will be transformed into gold
mines. The yellow kernels will CLINT
with the cal luster of wealth. But
even though corn meal is dearer than
it was few weeks ago. it is still
cheaper than wheat flour. Necessity
may teach some Americans that they
can reduce the cost of living, even
now, by using more corn meal.
