CLEAN UP.
Here Is q Way to Get the Ditch BANKS
Cleaned Without Expense
to the Farmer

An act of 1911 (chapter l20 OF inc
1911 session laws of Idaho), makes
it possible to compel the irrigatioh
and roilroad companies and individ-
uals to exterminate noxious weeds'
Twenty-Five per cent of the resident
freeholders living in regularly or
ganized road district may petition INC
county commissioners for tie exter-
mination of noxious weeds within
their road district. The county com
missioners then issue an order WEIGH
the road supervisor OF the dlstrice
posts in three conspicuous places. ne
serves this order on the owners anu
superintendent or managers Oh pro-
perty within thisdistrict. The notlce
REQUIRES that these parties extermi-
nate all weeds named therein on OF
before the date fixed in the order....-
The road overseer then proceeds
to destroy all such weeds on the high
ways of his district before the date
fixed in the order. After the explr-
alton of this date he must DESTROYS
all weeds as designated in the order,
outside of highways, employing the
necessary help to prevent these weeds
from maturing and going to seed.
Upon the completion of the WORK
required of him, the road overseer
renders an itemized statement to the
county auditor showing IN detail, cost
on any piece of land, railroad right
of way, and irrigation canal, in his
district, outside of the public high
ways, on which noxious weeds have
been destroyed by him or under his
direction. This charge is assessed
against such property as general taxes
and is col,ectible in the same manner.
tThe cost of destroying noxioAs
weeds on public land of exceedingly
poor quality, is paid from the Con-
eral fund of the co nty as arc the
expenses of the road supervisor.
Any person, company or corpora
ton owning or operating canal,
railroad or irrigcting system failing
o destroy the weeds designated in
the order, within the time epecificd,
is guilty of a misdemea.,o" and upon
conviction may be fined one hundred
dollars and costs.
The amount of any charge is sub
'eot to correction by action for that
Nurpose, brought by any person In
terested in the district court Of that
'onnty, wherein the property is stu
ated, within six months from the
time of the filing of tho road over
seer's itemized atement.-Contri-
buted.

IDAHO SEED EXCEPTIONAL

Other states do not have soil and
climatic conditions that will permit
to grow seed of such high grade, ex-
cellent color, strong vitality and su-
perior quality as Idaho. Eastern
wholesale buyers recognize this ex-
cellence, and they secure most of the
purest and best seed to ship east.
Many Idaho farmers, then, must buy
a poorer quality of seed from his

There is aboard machine, blacksmith, boiler, pipe, copper and pattern shops as we'll as a foundry.

CHtSANA BILLY HURT
 WHILE AFTER BERRIES

Chisana Billy Williams and friend went looking for blueberries back of West Dawson, on the Glacier trail.
 Isaac Lusk put Billy next to "all kinds of berries" where he could see one berry and imagined he could see bushels. Billys horse smelled bruin In the neighborhood of the Eighteen mile roadhouse site, and took to his heels across country. At the time the horse ran away Billy and his friend were walking behind the rig. Billy jumped in and endeavored to stop the horse, but the line broke and he either fell or was thrown out. Bill was hit by nearly every part of the vehicle on the side on which he made his exit. Result; A very badly dam aged shoulder and arm, one knee badly lacerated and the calf of his right leg severely cut. Bill is under the doctors care, and hopes to be all right in a week or so.-Dawson News.

WAR HERUES ARE
 MADE HONOR :. CITIZENS

BERLIN, Sept. Next to naming a new baby or a statute or a bridge or tower after Hinddnberg, granting the freedom of a city to the commander of a successful submarine is Germany s popular diversion at present. No less than four naval commanders have thus been honored and have been made "honor citizens" of communities large and small.
 The first one to be thus recognized was Frigate Captain von Mueller, commander of the sea raider Emden. The city of Emden, after the ships destruction, named von Mueller it's honor citizen, while his birthplace, Blankenburg, paid him similar tribute.
 The city of Karlsruhe took the same steps in the case of Frigate Captain Erich Koehler, commander of the Karlsruhe, and Otto Weddigen, cap tain lieutenant of the U-9 and the U-29, who perished with the latter sub marine, has been similarly honored by his birthplace, Herford. The latest case is that of the city of Kreuznach, which has conferred it's freedom on Captain Lieutenant Hersing, com mander of the U-21 and the U-51.

MOUNT M'K|NLEY WAS
 FIRST SEEN IN 1794

The giant of the Alaka range be- held by Steller in TAI was Mount St. Elias, and 151 years were to pass be- fore the Italian Duke of Abruzzi plant ed his foot upon the summit after Americans and Englishmen had tried vainly to attain it.
 Mount Mckinley was first reported in May, 1794, by George Vancouver, the British navigator, who at the time was surveying the head of Cook Inlet. He described Mckinley and it's neigh Dor, Foraker, as distant stupendous mountains covered with snow and ap- parently detached from each other" The Russians called the greatest noun tain in their Alaskan domain "Bul- shaia Cora" which means rimply Great Mountain" and to the native tribes it was known as Denali, Doleyka and Tralekr.
 Princenton graduate, w. A. Dickey, a prospector and miner, who explored the Susitna river in 1896, was respon- sible for naming the great mountain Mckinley; and to the neighbor peak Capt. J. S. Heron. U. S. A., gave the name of Foraker three years later.
 
 The first man who tried to scale Mckinley was the Hon. James Wick

ployed, and free to drift about in mis-
cry and want until he can find work
at any wage that will stave off hun
ger from his wife and child.
This is the reality, not the theory,
of the Rockefeller proposal. 1t is a
denial of democracy, and an insult
even to that veneer of Christianity
with which our industrial oVer-Iords
gloss over the saVagery of their eco
nomic code.
In addition the plan has not the vir-
tue of sound business basis; for, I'M
less the workers of the United States
bow to it, which is unlikely, the result
will be series of strikes that will dis
organize industry and keep the coun-
try in ferment for years to come.
Here is where heavy responsibility
rests on the RockefeIIers and the gen.
tIemen who stand on their side OF the
fence.
And this result will be the more re-
grettable on account of it's needless
ness from all points OF view. For, in
the anthracite coal fields, where the
union has received recognition (the
same union, by the way, that Mr..
Rockefeller is fighting in Colorado)
there has been an almost complete
absence of.industrial discord, and, in
stead, a healthy cooperation between
capital and labor during the last
decade that has worked out in large
advantage to both.
There are few intelligent persons
today who do not realize that poll
ical machinery alone does not and
cannot produce real democracy. Eco
nomic power is the only dominant
power of the world. Without a fair
division of this power between the
different classes, democracy is impos-
sible and drops to the level of a mere
catch-word for political campaigns.
