San Francisco ExpOsitiOn

San Francisco, Jan. 6.-According to
an official statement made by the
Panama Pacific Information Exposi-
ton officials today, the Worlds FAN
grounds will be ready to throw open
to the public at least ten days be-
fore the scheduled opening day, Feb
ruary 20.
All of the exposition structures are
either in a finished state or are rap
idly approaching it. That is, with the
exception of the state and foreign
buildings. Some of the latter are
finished, others are still in construc
ton, while a small percentage arc
.jut rising from their foundations.
With the decision of the French gov
ernmcnt to begin work, one more
building has been added to the list of
foreign exhibit structures. The build
:ngs, either completed or under CON
struction, in this group, now number
eighteen. OF the forty three states
which agreed TO participate, twenty
eight have buildings in various stages
Ct construction. A number Of the
states have been tardy in commencing
work, but it is a foregone conclusion
that every one of the state buildings
will be ready on the opening day.

''LEGISLATURE OF A
THOUSAND SHORES

CONTINUED FROM PAGE TWOl
lishment of state tuberculosis hos
pital. DIR. John c. Crowley, senator
from the Twenty second district, San
Francisco, is sponsor for the bill He
made his campaign upon the need of
such legislation and thinks it has pop
ular support behind it.
1t is proposed to appropriate $780,
600 for the erection of the hospital
and the care of patients. An unoccu-
pied tract of land in Napa county now
owned by the state is suggested as
fitting place to build the institution.
The various counties are to be as
sessed for maintenance in proportion
to the number Of patients. The as
sessment mentioned is $25 for each
patient. No patient is to be admitted
without a certificate from the proper
authorities showing that he or she has
tuberculosis. Persons suffering from
this disease who have sufficient funds
will be admitted on regular payment
plans. The out of doors treatment is
proposed.
"There is no place where tubercu-
losis patients may now be sent said
DR.. Crowley. I'VE must treat them
in their own homes or send them
south into other states. There is no
need of this. They can be cured un-
der proper treatment in our own part
of the state"
Dir. George f. Ebright, who is said
TO be slated for the position of head
Of the state health board, is in favor
of the state tuberculosis hospital.

BONDS FOR COUNTY IN
DEBTEDNESS
A $4,000 Issue to Pay Off Debt
to Canyon and Boise
Counties

At a meeting of the board of county
commissioners yesterday, resolution
was passed accepting the bid of
Sweet, Causey, Foster & Co., of Den
yer, for an issue of mot less than
$4,000 or more than 100000" of
bonds to settle in full Gem county's
Indebtedness to Canyon and Boise
counties.
The bonds are designated as per
cent funding bonds and will be sold
at par They will bear date Of Jan
uary l, 1916, and will become due
serially in from 10 to 10 years in
convenient denominations. The COM
pany will pay accrued interest. The
deal is considered a good one for
Gem county.
In the division of the indebtedness
of Canyon and BOISE counties, Gem
county owes Canyon approximately
$4,000 and Boise county $4,000. In
addition there is the expense of tran
scribing the records. From Canyon
there is credit of sS,400 accruing as
Gems share of the property. The
exact amount of the expense of the
tranfer of records and the indebted
ness to the two parent counties
is being tabulated by Auditor
R. B. Wilson, and when COM
pleted will be the amount Of bonds
to be issued. The bond issue, accord
ing to Commissioner John McNish
will be no more than the obligations
would have amounted to if we were
still in Canyon county.

HIGHWAY TO SAW.
TOOTH PARK
To Connect South Fork Road at
LOwman With Salmon River
Road

Forest officials have just returned
from trip to the South Fork of the
Payette, made for the purpose of
locating the most feasible route for
a wagon road to connect the now
nearly finished wagon road leading
from Banks and the south fork of the
Payette to Garden Valley and Low
man postoffice, with the state road
on the Salmon river and thence to
Stanley Basin.
Still more reconnaissance will be
required before a route is decided
upon, but when it is, and the road
built, it will mean that autoists can
motor up through Garden Valley over
to the Stanley Basin and the pro-
posed National Sawtooth park, to
HALEY and back to Boise again, via
Mountainhome, forming a loop which
will include some of the most beauti-
full scenery in the west.
When the road reaches Stanley
Basin, it will branch at that point to
HALEY and also will branch off, fol-
lowing the Salmon river a distance,
to Challis and Salmon City and Mon
tana points and the Yellowstone park.
The road to Haley will skirt the
proposed Sawtooth national park on
the east. When these roads are COM
pleted it will mean that one can mot
or from the Yellowstone park across
to the Sawtooth park, and down to
Boise.
1t is the plan of the forest service
to present this road project to the
state highway commission at its next
meeting, November Is, for the pur-
pose of securing cooperation, since
the forest service is only permitted to
use 10 per cent of the gross receipts
in this district for road funds, al
though the forest rangers are worked
on the roads during the winter
months.

TEACHERS MEET
Gem County Association Addressed
by DR.. Sisson and Others

The first meeting of the Gem Coun-
ty Teachers association was held Fri
day and Saturday in the High school
auditorium in this city and was large
ly attended by teachers from all parts
of the county. Friday evening a
splendid address was given by DR..
Edward Sisson, state commissioner Of
education. His subject was, "The Ida
no Plan of School Administration
Saturday, an all day session was
held. DR.. Sisson again spoke, his sub
ject being "A Grain of Mustard Seed"
Superintendent Geo. D. Knipe gave
an interesting and instructive talk
on Fairgrounds, and four primary
classes illustrated the principal points
of the address by group games played
on the schoolhouse lawn. Miss Gro
well of Nampa and Miss Smell of this
city discussed school problems and
vocal selections were given by Miss
Holt of Boise and w. w. Nusbaum.
The county was divided into dis
trict associations and meetings will
be held in each of them during the
year. The first will be held at Ola
in December.
The session closed with banquet
served by the Domestic Science de-
partment in the school building. The
visitors were loud in their praise of
the splendid meal served and the ex-
cellence of the cooking. Toasts were
given by DR.. Sisson, County Superin-
tendent Bessie Won Harten, ]. W

feature of the new rates, and the ar.
rangement in connection Herewith, is
the fact that coal will be reweighed at
the request of the consignee at desti-
nation points, providing the carrier
has track scales. Should there be no
track scales at destination points, GER
titled wagon scale weights may be
used, provided such weights are taken
on balanced scales and under the su-
pervision of a representative of the
carrier. When reweighing discloses
a variation of 500 pounds or more
from the billed weight, no charge
will be made for the reweighing and
the freight charges will be collected
on the weight so found at reweighing
points. The old rate to Emmett was
$3.50 for nut and slack coal; the new
rate is So for nut and S2.75 for slack.

INVENTS DREDGE FOR
DITCH WORK
By Its Use Irrigation Canals Are
Easily and Economically
Cleaned

Anthony Peterson has invented ar
irrigation canal cleaning machine
that greatly reduces the expense OF
such work and does it better than
was possible under the old way OF
using horses scrapers.
Mr.. Peterson was given contract
to deepen and clean out the upper
portion of the Farmers Cooperative
canal from the Charlie Cantral ranch
to the headgate. To do this work
more economically than by the old
system, he has manufactured a ma
chine that has already demonstrated
its usefulness and adaptability, by
actual results. The machine is at
work every day on the canal and with
two teams of horses and four men it
is doing as much work as 20 teams
formerly did by the old way.
Of course the machine is somewhat
crude in appearance, having been de-
vised and manufactured by Mr.. Peter
son himself in Sam McMillan's black
smith shop. In appearance it looks
like a hay derrick, having the long
pole sweep swing on top of couple
of heavy wooden beams that have
their foundation on heavy timbers
that rest on the ground. To the sweep
are fastened pulleys through which
run wire cables from the end of
which is specially constructed
scraper. On the other enu of the
cable a team of horses is the motive
power for filling the scraper from the
bottom of the canal. The scraper when
filed is hoisted to the end of the
sweep, then swung round to the top
of the ditch bank and by clever
piece of mechanism the scraper's load
is dumped. Other pulleys and cables
fastened to the base of the machine,
with another team of horses as the
motive power, operate plow.
Whether running the scraper or the
plow, the horses pull the load easily
To do the same work without the
pulley mechanism would probably re-
quire half dozen teams. The machine
is so simple and practical that one
wonders why someone has not
thought of it before.
Four men and two teams are the
only labor required. Mr.. Peterson
and helper operate the plow and
scraper, Charlie Cantral and his team
handle the scraper hoist and o. c.
Coonrod and team operate the plow
pulling mechanism. An immense
quantity of dirt and gravel can be
moved in day.
