about three weeks. Henry Love, who
came over the new route today, states
that there is less t;Ian mile of rock
work to be done, which will complete
the contract, with the exception of
building the bridge across the Payette

COLORADO FRUIT CROP HURT
Grand Valley Swept by Blizzard and
Much Damage Done.

The Palisade (Colo.) Tribune OF
May gives the following report o.
the effects of a blizzard that rageC
in that section:
"The Palisade section has emerged
from one of the worst billiards ever
seen in this section, with no officia
record of prior ones around the Isl
of May, and is pleased to report nc
damaged fruit in the immediate vi
cinity of the town, with all fruit east
and south and for over a mile west
practically intact, thanks to effective
smudging. Many in that area
smudged while others did not, but
all report their crop full one. West
of that area reports differ-some
claiming partial crop while others
say they have total loss.
The storm or cold wave came up
suddenly from the west late Friday
afternoon and blew strongly for a
time with light snow hurries. The
night was bad one and numerous
people started their smudging. Sat-
urday brought worse conditions ana
the night showed up badly, but clear
ed up and then grew steadily colder
about O'Clock SunCay morning. From
that time to daylight more than a
million dollars of fruit was destroyed
in the Grand valley
Report has il that at Montrose the
mercury dropped to % and "a on the
Spring Creek mesa, where some eff
fecting smudging was done. Delta is
said to have been about in the same
condition, with little fruit left at
either place. 1t is claimed the Hoteh-
kiss situation is somewhat improved
over that, while Paonia has saved its
crop after the manner of Palisade.
Canon City is also reported to be in
tact. Around Denver there was con-
siderable freezing.
"The freeze was undoubtedly a bad
one for the Grand valley, and the
farmers in the lower section are be-
ing urged to plant diversified crops,
a committee of business men having
been formed to offer substantial en-
enlargement. The growers have TAX
en- readily to the plan and large
part of the acreage offered to raise
beets, broom corn, etc., was taken at
once:l7i ~ . sJ;s ,

The cool wet weather is holding
back the strawberry crop, and only a
limited quantity is being marketed, not
enough to supply the local demand.
Nevertheless, the berries are very fine.
Martin Bremmer, as usual, had some
nice, big, luscious ones in Tuesday and
they sold like hot cakes. The Index

a box of choice berries from the ranch

why YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin>
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment- gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. 1t is free from alcohol.

Time TO FIGHT THE
COOLING MOTH
Nampa Horticultural Gives In
structiOns How to Com
bat the Pest.

The leaf spray for codling moth j
one of the most important of the ser
les. The calyx spray applied befor'
the calyx Of the apple has sufficiently
closed to prevent the injection Of the
arsenate of lead solution is intended
as a check on the larvae Of the cod
ling moth seeking entrance to the
apple weeks after the calyx has been
applied. Prof. Card, by careful count
has ascertained that so per cent of
the first brood of codling moth are
likely to enter the calyx.
The leaf spray is applied for the
purpose of coating the leaves. Most
of the codling moths eggs of the first
brood are deposited on the leaves,
preferably on the younger leaves near
the apple clusters. These fresh grow
ing leaves have not been sufficiently
coated by the calyX spray.
Time for Application.
By number of breeding cages Prof.
II. Z. Ashby Of the University Extern
sion work has ascertained that near
Boise, the very first moths emerged
about May l. Under varying condi-
tions Of shelter or exposure the peri
cd of moth emergence may continue
for 30 days longer.
For the purpose of mating the moth
flies four days when egg laying COM
mences. The eggs hatch in 8 to III
days, according to temperature.
Should the temperature fall to 36 the
vitality Of the eggs is destroyed
The larvae are likely to feed little
on the way from leaf to apple, This
is regarded as the best time to de- /.
stroy the young larvae.
Instinct teaches the moth to de- /
post her eggs only on trees bearing
fruit, and to select young fresh leaves
near the apple. Under present condi-
tons Prof. Ashby advises to start the
second or leaf spray about the 10th
to the 2lst Of May in the upper Boise
Nhllty' TUT Tue tdiyN spray HoHAlc
like the Bordeaux, throwing a driving
has been used, but for the
leaf spray a nozzle that delivers a
fine mist, coating the leaves is best.
For power use 200 pounds pressure
and to 10 pounds Of arsenate of LEAD
paste to 200 gallons of water. Aim
to complete work before any consid-
cradle number of larvae develop.

HUNDRED DIE
WHEN SHIP is SUNK

S~heerness, Eng, May 29.-Persist
ent rumors that a German spy touch
ed off the gigantic explosion that sent
the steamer Princess Irene hurting
skyward in Sheerness harbor with o
loss of more than 800 lives caused
the British admiralty to order an inn
mediate investigation.
Admiralty officers who are on the
ground ridiculed these rumors. They
point ont that the same reports went
out to the world when the battleship
Bulwark was blown to pieces at the
Sheerness dock six months ago with
a loss of 500 lives. The admiralty in.
vestigation resulted in the finding
that the Bulwark was shattered by an
internal explosion. the nature of which
was W made public.
The Princess Irene, a new 10000
ton liner built for the Canadian Pacific
railway and almost Immediately com
Wandered by the government, had
been In service and vas at the Sheer
ness dock for repairs. Only one OF
the more than 300 persons on board
the Princess Irene escaped.
The liner disappeared In n vast
roar OF flame and smoke, according to
three members of the crew who es.
capped, being ashore and who were re.
turning to the ship in a small boat at
the time.

NOT CERTAIN WHAT
DAMAGED STEAMER

Liverpool, May 29.-Under direct
orders from Washington United
States Naval Constructor Mcbride Of
the American embassy at London be-
gan a rigid inquiry into the reported
torpedoing Of the American steamer
Nebraskan by a German submarine.
Captain G. #. Green and officers OF
the Nebraskan were quizzed at a Sc
cret session while preparations were
being made to put the steamer in
dry dock for a careful examination
of her hull.
What statement her master made to
the American attache is not known,
but to newspaper men Captain Green
frankly admitted he could o swear
positively that the Nebraskan vas
%torpedoed or that she hit a mine.
THE best | can say is that some
thing struck us at about 1925 Tues
day night while we were about for
ty miles west of Southcliff," said Cap
tain Green. 1T is my belief, however,
hat we were hit by a torpedo"
The chief engineer said he thought
he saw something resembling the
wake of a torpedo on the ~starboard
side just before the explosion. He is
not certain about it.

Sioux City, May 29.-Only a very
small run of cattle arrived for to-
days trade. some Is cars or 400
head, as against $50 a week ago and
1sS the corresponding day a year
ago.
A slow steady market was the
verdict as to the status of the fat
cattle deal. Eastern news indicated
an easier trend, but because supplies
were limited the local sellers were
able to work out prices that averaged
about the same as on Thursday.
Best heavy beeves landed at $S.65.
Few stockers and feeders arrived
and prices showed little or no change
as compared with yesterday. Inquiry
from the country has been slack all
week and there has been easier ten
denotes noted the past few days.
Prices in vogue for live pork were
rated as steady to a shade lower. Top
for the day landed at $3.50, while
the long string of sales landed at
$40.
There was practically nothing at
hand locally to test trade conditions
in the sheep house and prices were
nominally unchanged. Advices from
other centers indicated a sharp
break.

with 81 ,965 and the entire nation with
a grand total of $1S7, 739,000,0O0 in a

the total is more.
The report shows that the country is
getting richer and that since 1850 each
person is six times richer than he was
In 1850, or, rather, six times richer
than his parents or grandparents. For
I'm 1850 the total wealth of the nation
was $7.136, 100000, or $30S per capita.
The wealth Of the nation in 1912 was
twenty-five times greater than in 1850.
While New York heads the list with
the greatest wealth, Nevada stands at
the top In the per capita allotment of
wealth.
New York's wealth In 1912 is given
as $25,O11, 10000, with Illinois and
Pennsylvania running neck and neck
for second place with $15,4S4,0 900 600
and SIS, 1000, 900 respectively. Ne
vada has a per capita wealth of $4,S65,
with Iowa second and North Dakota
third.
The latest published estimates of the
wealth of foreign countries show $10S,.
2S0,000,000 for the British empire In
1908. of which amount $72,997 100000
was credited to the United Kingdom.
The estimate for the United States In
1904 was $107, 104.O00,000. The wealth
OF Germany In 1908 was estimated at
ST., s64,0O0,000. Comparable estimates
