Trouble is here for the citizen
with large lawn. The 'Taraxaeu1n
denseleonis, commonly known as the
dandelion, is making it's spring 7ap-
pearance:. AS one solution of the
problem scores of small boys should
be put to work Saturdays with means
to exterminate this herbaceous plant.
The dandelion is concedednas one of
the worst enemies of the lawn. The
plants spread with rapidity and the
small boy with his knife is almost
sure of a job for years to come.

DOUBLE TRACK
FOR BLACKFOOT

The single track Of the railroad 4
right way in the City Of Blackfoot
will son be a thing Of the past, as the in
creased passenger and freight business
now done at the depot demands more
trackage. The ties and rails are now
on the ground for passing track east
Of the depot which will extend from the
water tank on Judicial street to the
switch north of the depot on Idaho
street. The increase of any city's rail
road trackage is sure indication of it's
growth and prosperity, and the citizens
Of Blackfoot should welcome the day
when the single track has failed to
longer assist the railroad company in
caring for the railroad business Of their
thriving and growing city.
Mayor Peck informs us that the rail
road company has perfect right to in
stall another track in the city, and he
does not believe additional trackage
will Interfere with the street crossings
which the company promises not to
blockade more than ten minutes at a
time. The mayor says the railroad COM
Fany has kept every promise it ever
made with the city council in the past.
and be believes they will continue to
Go 20.

ANOTHER MAN FROM MEXICO

Last Monday morning Brigham
Stowell and wife, two Mormon refugees
from Mexico, arrived in Blackfoot on a
visit. Mr.. Stowell is cousin of George
Washington Stowell the merchant of
Thomas, and this is the first meeting
the two cousins have had in thirty
years. Mr.. Stowell is one of the many
Mormon colonists who have had to flee
from Old Mexico to save their lives and
lose valuable property, but he says he
IS going back some day and demand his
property and some satisfaction for the
wrongs he and his family have endured.
ABOUT two years ago, under the reign
OF President Huerta, he had an en-
counter with Mexican outlaw and his
face bears the trace of the would be as
sassin 3 bullet.

Rigid Law.

The last assembly passed for the
benefit of special interests rigid tres
pass law that sportsmen should keep in
mind when the season opens. The hun
ter who discharges a gun on property
that is properly fenced and contains
written notices against trespassers, will
find himself violator of the law this
year, fact that sportsmen should deem
it well to heed. The new trespass law
is rigid one in its terms. Owners of
property on which hunters heretofore
have been used to hunting will be on
hand when the season opens Thursday
of this week to enforce the law to the
letter. If stiff fines and even more
serious trouble is to be avoided hunters
had better take to the open.-Pocatello
Tribune.

JOS. KELLEY's SUDDEN DEATH

Last Sunday Joseph Kelley of Ster-

death. He is said to have been addicted
TO the use of alcohol stimulents until
they became extinct, when he substitut-
ed hard cider. It is reported that
shortly before his death he came into
possession of quart of poison com
monty known as bootleg booze, which
he SO hurriedly devoured that paralysis
was the fatal result. DR.. Kenyon of

STEALS WIDOWS
WEDDING RING

Last Saturday night between and
10 O'Clock the home of Mrs. w. II.
kestner on Francis street was visited
by burglar during her absence, who
stole her wedding ring, gold cross and
chain, her adopted daughters bank and
about $3.50 in money. Mrs. Kestner
feels the loss of her wedding ring very
keenly and would give great deal for
its return. The intruder gained admis-
sion by the way of screened window,
and left both front and rear doors open
when he left. The night before the rob-
berry Mrs. Kestner noticed man stand
ing behind tree in front of the house
and would have forgotten the circum-
stance had she not been the victim of a
burglar. The burglar left no clew, but
many think he was not a stranger to
Blackfoot or the house he robbed.

Board met at 8 a.. m. with Chairman
Geo. H. Fisher, s. L. Reece, and l.. E.
Dillingham;, secretary, present. The re-
port of DR.. Poynter, superintendent, for
the term ending June 80, 1915, was
carefully reviewed and upon motion was
accepted and ordered placed on file.
After studying the report and observing
many cases here, we are convinced that
this institution is being imposed on as
many OF the inmates are simply old
and infirm, or otherwise incapacitated
to earn an independent living, thereby
becoming a county charge. Instead of
the counties caring for their indigents
as the law provides, many such cases
are being committed to this institution
thereby throwing the expense on the
state, materially increasing same by
transportation and other incidentals. In
View of the fact, and to discourage
county officials we recommend a change
in our present law whereby the main
tenance Of each patient will be CHARGED
direct to the county from which he or
she was committed, thereby equalizing
the taxation. Many Of our sister states
have changed their law which was
similar to our present law, to law
similar to the one VIC recommend and
we are advised it works more salts
factory besides being more equitable.
We also find many Of our inmates
are not bonafide citizens of the State
OF Idaho, also some that are not citi
zens of the United States. We there
fore recommend that our next lerisla-
ture pass an act or make an appropria-
tlon whereby we can deport all such
eases. as we know of no provision for
such under our present statutes. The
absence of such provision is largely due
to our crowded condition and is unfair
to our tax payers.
The claims for the month of June
were examined and approved and refer
red to the State Board of Examiners.
The following applications for parole
were received and paroles were issued:
Charles Chapman, w. H. Pemble, R. P.

Mrs. Nixon, Arthur T. McGinnis, Henry
Powers and Jacob A. Smith.

Insane Asylum OF Blackfoot, consisting

met on this date and viewed with pleas
ure the excellent condition of the en-.
tire premises being especially pleased
with the conditions of the farm. Or
chard and stock. The farm gives prom
Use OF an abundent crop which means
full cellars and less expense in the prop
er care of the inmates of this institu-
ton.
| Among the most important improve
lnents coming to the notice Of the board
was the construction Of about two miles
of fence enclosing the pasture or graz
ing land belonging to the institution,
and were gratified to learn that they
had been constructed without cost, the
material used having been recovered
from the dump pile, and superfluous
fences found on the premises. Enclosed
IN this fence are about eight hundred
acres of good range land on which is
pastured the dairy and beef cattle be-
longing to the state.
In going over the farm it was observed
that head gates had been remodeled
and many of the bitches placed on high
er ground.
The next most important change OBJ
served was in the working forces and a
study of the situation convinced us
that the changes increased the eff
cheney and at the same time greatly
lessoned the expense as will be shown
by the following table,,

The several wards visited were found
to be clean, neat and inviting and the
patients all seemed happy.
The board observed with pleasure that
considerable renoyating, in the way of
painting the wards, beds, ETC., had
been done ty the patients without exr
pease. 1t was also observed that the
superintendent had caused the reclassifi

more convenient quarters and more eco

and also increasing the capacity for
the increased number of patients and
somewhat relieving the congested con-
ditions throughout the whole institu-
tion.
In going over the records it was noted
that many patients being treated had
