APPLYING THE BUD SPRAY.

Many farmers in this section have planned to apply the bud spray which Is aimed against the bud moth, apple scaib, plum and apple corculios, and other insect and fungus troubles. The buds on the earlier varieties have de- veloped very rapidly during the last few days. and those who have not ap- piled this bud spray and who plan to do so must exercise care. The spray should not be applied after the buds show very much color.

REPORT ON PENSION ACT
Amounts Distributed in State Under
Mothers Pension Law.

The state of Idaho has done some
excellent charity work made possible
under the provisions of the mothers
| pension act passed by the Twelfth leg
lslature, OF which r. A. Lawson, repre-
| sentative OF Ada county, was the faith
er, and through whose efforts with the
| endorsements of women's clubs, esDe-
claily the Congress of Mothers, it was
| placed OH the statutes of Idaho. While
other states have mothers pension
acts ldaho's is different from them all
Tor 1t was drafted to include all of
the better features of the Missouri,
| Utah and Oregon acts. Under its terms
| approximately $40, goo was paid out in
| Idaho among the various counties
through the probate courts, or to be
| exact, S39 ,114,35, to mothers whose
husbands are dead or are incarcerated
as state wards in the peniteutiary.
only three of the % counties in the
state have failed to take advantage of
the provisions of the act. 1t has kept
hunger from the door in many in
stances and been a boon to mothers
with large families to support
This act passed the last legislature
with but five votes against it in the
senate. 1T received the unanimous in
dorsement of the committees that con-
sidered 1t and was not amended in its
tassage, so that following the attach
ment of the governors signature to it.
1t went onto the statute books as or
lginally introduced before the last leg
islature.
Miss Coston, probation officer of Ada
county, has compiled some interesting
data on the mothers pension act since
1t went into force in this state. She
finds that Franklin and Bingham coun-
ties expended the largest amounts of
money as provided for the support of
in the act Bingham county
spent S442S,95, lending aid through
pensions in "a cases and taking care of
III children Franklin county had "a
cases, including S. children aud srent
S46S5.50 in pensions. Ada, the largest /
county in the state, both in population |
and assessed property valuation, had |
but five cases, aiding 81 children and |
spending S1SiG.T5.
Under the terms of this act only |
mothers whose husbands are dead or
III the penitentiary are qualified to
receive pensions for the aid of their |
children. The pensions automatically |
cease when the husbands are liberated |
from the penitentiary. The first child
up to the age of IA is allowed $40 and
all other children under that age S.
each until they arrive at the age of IA. !
The act did not include deserted wives
left with family on their hands to
care for, because of the fear that to do
so would let down the bars in the
giving of pensions, although it was ad-
mitted that in most instances such
cases are deserving OF financial assist

The grizZled little man with the
droopy mustache had steady looking
gray eyes that seemed to belle his
burst of sentiment. One could not
have guessed from his look that he
was checking out at the Hotel Savoy

he did not want them to go to the

The westerner, who is H. j. Newton
of Borie, Wyo., came in with sixteen
horses all of which have blood lines
from Dolly. He has never shipped any
horses before, but he bought some
land last year and to make a payment
he loaded up a car of horses and came
to this city with them. But the best
offer he had was from the buyers who
are shipping horses for war purposes.
