Repairing Farm Machinery.

Repairs when needed are needed
very much as a rule. Farm work
will not ordinarily permit of delays
while repairs are coming from the
nearest branch house, or possibly Chi
cago, or Moline. Now is none too early
to look over the different machines,
replacing lost nuts, worn bolts, defec-
tive parts, and most of all getting
orders off for all repairs likely to be
needed. Just recently gas tractor
was laid up for ten days because the
man in charge did not order repairs
when he knew he should. If we would
get the most out of our equipment we
must know that every tool, implement
and machine is in actual readiness
before the day we wish to use it.
The above advice is given by E. w.
Hamilton, agricultural engineer, Ida.

New Bounty Law

The Idaho Legislature has amended
the law regulating bounties by the
state for the determination of pred
atory animals. County commissioners
are directed by the act to levy a
special tax of mills on the dollar
OF the assessed valuation of sheep, and
one one mill on the dollar each for
cattle, hogs, and horses, to be collect
ed as taxes and kept as a separate
fund to defray the expenses of paying
the following bounties: for each
coyote, lynx, and wildcat, $3.50; for
each bear or wolf $40; for each
cougar or mountain lion, $25. General
supervision Of the operations under
the law is lodged with the livestock
sanitary board, which will appoint a
predatory animal inspector in each
county. Entire skins claimed are to
be submitted to this inspector, to-
gether with affidavit that the animal
were killed by the affiant in the state
of Idaho after March l, 1915. The
inspector will detach the four paws of
each skin and mail them, with affi-
davit, to the state veterinarian, post
age or expressage to be paid by the
person asking bounty.

KOOskia 4-Orofino 2

A fine exhibition of the national
game was played on the local
diamond Sunday between Orofino and
KOoskia, the score being to in
favor of the visitors. 1t was the first
game of the season and for this
reason, with the boys not yet in
shape, it was certainly creditable.
Taylor pitched good ball for Kooskia,
allowing no hits. Jewel also did fine
work IN the box for the locals, Koos-
kia getting but one hit. Four errors,
all costly, cost Orofino the game. A
little practice will overcome this, and
the home team should soon make any
of the surrounding teams sit up and
take notice. About 200 spectators
attended the game.
Next Sunday, April 4th., Kamiah
will play the locals on the Orofino
grounds.

Burglars Blow Safe At Greer
Securing $3.50 And Jewelry

Burglars succeeded in making a
good haul at Erb's store in Greer
Friday night, when they blew the
safe and got away with some $3.50 in
money, a gun or two and some jewel
ry. About o'clock in the morning
after the robbery speeder went
through Orofino going down, and a
speeder was missing from Kamiah.
Deputy Sheriff Jewell went down the
line and traced the car to near Ar
row. where it is supposed to have
been dumped into the river. At the
store there was evidence that the
burglars were desperate, for rifle,
loaded and ready for action, was
found on the counter near the front
door, evidently one provided for use

C. A. Fisher Transferred to Missoula.

The U. S. Forestry Department
has notified C. A. Fisher, who has
been in charge of the Clearwater
forest for some years, that he has
been transferred to Missoula, and that
w. B. Wiley of the ST. Maries dis
trict will take CHI harge at Orofno.
The government has policy Of
changing its men from one forest to
another, so there is nothing in the
order rejecting in any way on Mr..
Fisher. That he has been retained
at Orofino as long as he has is due to
the fact that he is one of the best
men in the service, and was grained
special privileges and permitted to
stay in Orofino last year. Mr.. Fisher
says he likes Orofino SO we'll that he
will not give up residence although
he will go on to Missoula for while.
He expects to engage in business here
later, making Clearwater county his
home. He has faith in the future
development of the county, and pre-
diets splendid development in the
near future.

in case of emergency. Had anyone
interferred murder would no doubt
have been committed The cash
register was broken open, and in the
office the contents of the safe were
scattered about, blown out by the
terrific force of the explosion. Up
to this time no trace of the burglars
has been found, although officers
everywhere in the northwest are on
the lookout.
Greer has no bank, and merchants
are compelled to keep some money
on hand over nights, for there is only
one train day by which cash may be
shipped out. But SO far burglars
have operated little in the Clearwater
valley.

Professor Gatenby's Recital.

Prof. w. w. Gatenby's pupils
held their second annual piano recital
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. B.
Kinne Friday evening. A large num-
ber of parents and friends were pres
ent, and lengthy, but most enjoy
able program was gone through. The
first part, with the exception of
Diabelli's Duet in D, was in the
hands of the Younger pupils who ac-
quilted themselves in a very credit
able manner. Every number was en-
joyed. The playing by the Misses
Ruth Orcutt, Jeanette Cochran, Hazel
Gregg. Ruth and Gladys Blake,
Helen Pepple and Vivian Molloy was
indeed praiseworthy, each handling
her piece with wonderful accuracy.
The duet playing of these little
folks was conspicuous feature of
this part of the program. Miss Glyds
Morton excelled in her playing of
Beethoven's s minuet in G. Dvorak s
Humoreske in G flat was played by
Miss Gladys Molloy with skill, excel
lent touch, and fine expression. Her
rendering Of Mendelssohn Consola-
tion was also fine. This is most
promising pupil. Miss Margaret
Jones scored fine success in her in
trepretation of Mozarts' Fantasia in
d minor. and Mendelssohn Spring
song. This pupil has good technical
ability and sense of expression. Her
vivacious temperament was shown
up III the presto movement of the
Fantasia. which she played with
remarkable briliancy With care
and training this pupil will make q
musical reputation for herself. There
was a feeling of regret and disap-
pointment when it became known that
owing to an accident, Miss Helen
Kline, who distinguished herelf at
last year s recital, would be unable
to play her number. She has beer
studying Beethoven's Moonlight
Sonata, which is big work for a
young pupil. Mrs. Gatenby sustained

Bootlegging Gets A Jolt
From District Judge Steele

Judge Steele opened the regular
term of the District court for Clear.
water county in Orofino Monday even
ing, the court arriving on the after
noon train. Judge Steele at once
took up the bootleg cases, of which
there are seven, and arraigned the de-
PENDANTS. These cases are all from
Elk River, and it looks like the
cases will all go to trial. Attorney
Chas. Mcdonald of Lewiston. who is
representing a number of these cases,
made lengthy and strenuous effort
Wednesday to have the cases dis
missed on demurrers, but Judge Steele
made it plain that the court would
not look with favor on technicalities
by which offenders of the liquor laws
might violate the law and escape, and
said that the court would uphold the
spirit and intention of the Legislature
in trying offenders against the liquor
laws.
Attorney Mcdonald made an effort
to show that Clearwater county was
not "dry" territory, saying there was
two kinds of prohibition counties, but
Judge Steele said the attorney was
wrong in his deductions, for there
was only one kind of prohibition, but
two methods or ways of making a
county dry. If county is "dry" at
all it is dry" according to Judge
Steele, and if there are those who are
violating the liquor laws under the
impression that Judge Steele is going
to permit offenders to escape on tech
nicalities, and thus annul the law and
encourage bootlegging, they will
probably change their mind after the
present term of court.
The Bootleg Cases
The jury will report for duty Mon.
day morning, and the first cases or
the docket are the Elk River bootleg
cases. The demurrers having beer
overruled, the cases have been set as
follows:
Monday, Sam Grande and Johr
Barkes, bootlegging. Tuesday, Lester
w. Smith, and French and Lester,
bootlegging. Wednesday, j. La.
Duke, bootlegging. Thursday, And.

P. l.. Orcutt was before the court
Tuesday at o'clock to listen to the
reading of an amended indictment il
the Blair Hoar libel suit. w. E.
Lee of Moscow and John R. Becker
of Orofino appeared for Orcutt ant
demurred on the ground that the in
dictment charged no offense; that tn,

libelous in that it did not charg,

the court will hear the prosecution
Friday on this demurrer when At
torney Tannahill of Lewiston can be
present and give his side of the case.
The county attorney told the court
that Mr.. Tannahill had drawn the
indictments and had handled the case.
The Blakes and Hoar have en-
ployed Attorney Tannahill to prose-
cute all the cases against Orcutt.
Judge Steele said the court would
try one of the Orcutt cases and that
it would be the last case tried this
term Of court. The Hoar case is now
scheduled for trial at this term, and
it will probably be heard about the
middle of the month.
The case of Aletha Lamb VS.. Ed
Brammer will come up for hearing
tomorrow.
Good VS. Peckham. Foreclosure of
mortgage. Default judgment was
rendered for plaintiff.
Fidelity Bank VS.. Carl Thompson.
OcoO
Jones VS.. Berman. Case settled
out of court and dismissed.
Eby VS.. Eby. Divorce granted.
Deterlie VS. Riggs. Suit to quiet
title. Verdict for plaintiff.
The case of the state against Ed
Marovich, in which the defendant
was charged with resisting an officer,
was dismissed. County Attorney
Smith filed no information, saying he
did not have sufficient evidence to
justify the expense of trial.

Thirteenth state Legislature was on
the whole useful and sensible body,
despite various errors of both omis-
sions and commission, is the deliber-
ate opinion Of State Senator E. M.
Grant, who with his wife and
daughter, returned Saturday from
Boise.
Mr. Grant says it would have been
able to do more and better work if
there had been a larger proportion of
old members and if there had been
any agreement or strong public senti-
ment on such matters as came before
both houses. Except on liquor
legislation, however, there were few
subjects that had been thoroughly dis
cussed beforehand to give members a
line on the wishes of their constitu-
ents. He was senate whip for the
republicans and had strong committe
assignments, which gave him a great
deal of important work to do and
found it interesting, though hard and
long hours were necessary to keep up.
The drastic new liquor laws for To-
cal option communities were sup
ported by more than four -fifths of the
members, who were, in almost every
case, specifically instructed in their
favor. He opposed the state prohibit
tion law as passed, both in committee
and on the floor but considers that it
will have the good effect of letting
every voter try effective prohibition
before voting on the prohibition
amendment in 1916.
The lack of success in reforming or
abolishing the fool primary law was
due to the lack of agreement in the
republican caucus on the subject and
the announced intention of the demo-
Gratis to make political capital out of
any change. Many republicans were
satisfied with the law as it stood,
others wanted few amendments, and
others, Of whom Mr.. Grant was one,
wanted to abolish it entirely. The
governor announced that he would
veto any material amendment if
passed, and so no time was wasted on
the matter.
One of the best things the senate
did was TO kill the bill changing the
school revenue law to straight per
capita basis. 1t would have cost
Clearwater county $24, 600 a year, as
that amount of its school fund would
have been given to south Idaho,
where children are numerous and tax
able property scarce. This was only
defeated after hard fight.
Of particular local interest was the
bill prohibiting the catching of trout
in Elk Greek and its tributaries from
August Goth to October goth. This
restriction is needed because the
creek alone is stocked with Pennysl.
vania brook trout which spawn al
that season.
Another is the bill permitting the
construction of dams and permanent
booms in the Clearwater and its main
forks for the handling of logs. This
can be done only under the supervisor

Will Raise WaInuts.

A Lewiston dispatch to the Spokes-
man-Review of recent date says !:
William 7. Hooker will this spring
plant five acres near the upper
reservoir of the city water department
to English walnuts, he having become
interested in the raising of the nuts
by his observation of some trees
planted for shade on his Charleston
property. He found they needed
little if any attention after planting,
were not infested with pests, as is
the case with fruit trees, and at
the age of seven to nine years were
in full bearing. In checking re-
suits of the crop last fall it was
found some trees in full bearing
produced $18 worth of nuts each.

Senator Grant Reviews
Work OF State Legislature

service provided must be reasonable
and equal to all and be under control
of the state public utilities commits
sion. 1t is not known that any con-
cern intends to take advantage of the
permission although there is hope
that parties from Oconto, Wis, may
see their way to improve the streams.
Senator Grant says that there was
no sign of corporation lobby at
Boise at all this session, whatever
may have been done in years gone by.
Several concerns sent lawyers to at
tend public committee hearings and
set forth their side of matters under
consideration, but even that was rare.
There was, however, an active and
powerful lobby at work for all sorts
of plans for moral reform. Besides
the organization of the Anti-Saloon
League on prohibition; there was
another, headed by an Episcopalian
bishop, working for restrictions on
divorce, another, composed principal
ly of elderly ladies, working for the
red-light abatement and injunction
law, another, representing Boise
unions working for a stiff raise in
accident benefits under the workman s
compensation law, others working for
towns in which state il stitutions are
located or which wanted lem, others
working for new counties. None OF
these spent money wrongfully and ap-
parenIly the railroads and other large
concerns were the only people who
had no representation at all.
While Mr.. Grant found the work
of the state senate interesting ano
we'll worth close study and the best
effort of any man, he is not at all
anxious to return. He has moi
positively Joined the '.Never Agains'
but feels almost certain he will apply
for membership in that famous club.

Alexander a drawback to legislation,

Syms- York Company of Boise have
launched new publication, The
Idaho Review, which promises to be a
state newspaper in every sense of the
word. 1t is to be weekly, and the
subscription price is going to be only
81 year, making it within reach of
the masses of the people who have
need of a reliable state paper. Most
people outside of the capital cannot
afford to take daily published in
Boise, but can afford weekly state
publication. There is need for such
a paper, and it will no doubt find a
warm welcome in Idaho. Here sue

Birds Spread Hog Cholera.

Buzzards, crows and other birds are
active agents in the spread of hog
cholera. They visit any place where
there is carrion and offal of any sort
and they have thus been known to
transport hog cholera germs for long
distances. All hogs therefore, that
die should be burned or deeply buried.
This will do much to check the spread
of infectious swine diseases.
