The North and South Railroad.
(Pend 'Oreille Review


Following the example Of his pre-
decessors, Governor Alexander is
building a north and south railroad.
The construction of a north and south
railroad on paper is familiar. II
started with Governor Gooding and
there has not been governor since
Governor Gooding's first term who
has not announced that before his
term expired we would be riding from
north to south Idaho by train. AS
suggested by Mark Cunningham in
the Idaho Review, the route for
Moses new line is not known but it is
safe to presume that it will be from
stump to stump in all the doubtful
counties.
The construction of north and
son IA railroad has never appeaied to
railroad men. Its construction is
largely a matter of sentiment, and will
eventually have to be built by she
state. A constitutional amendment
will be necessary before The state
can bond for railroad purposes. At the
recent session of the legislature there
was some discussion in the house and
senate OF submitting to a vote a com
stitutional amendment whereby bonds
could be issued for the construction

The grade boys and girls are inter
ested in the Track and Field Meet to
be held at the end of the school year.
They are getting ready in the various
schools to select their contestants for
the various events.
Last Friday afternoon, the teachers
OF the Van Buren, building had on dis
play liberal amount of excellent
school work. The clay moulding and
other hand work was of especial in
terest to the patrons who had not
previouSl y seen this type of work de-
veloped in the grades. A large num-
Der OF patrons and teachers were pres
ent and expressed their appreciation
OF the work, which was gratifying to
those in charge of the exhibit. The
othcers of the Parent eachers' AS
ISOLATION assisted the Van Buren, corps
OF teachers in serving.
The ward exhibit will he held at the
Lincoln school on Friday of this week
and that of the Washington school on
Monday of next week, May 3. 1t is
hoped that these two exhibits will also
be well patronized. Patrons of these
schools will find it we'll worth their
time to attend these exhibits.
The high school base ball team
played game with Greenleaf Thurs
day, losing by a score of to 6. They
won the game from Grenleaf, how
ever, last Friday by score of 9 to 8.

THE CHARM
or MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi.
cal Health.

The experience Of Motherhoodis a try
ing one 10 most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how 10 properly care for her
self. OF course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial Of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it Is hard TO recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There Is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother Of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard TO health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence Of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
inyigorator Of the female organism.

STATE ENGINEER HAS
FAITH IN FERTILITY
Of PRESENT MARSHES
Salem Man Holds 1000 Acres
of Marsh Land In Eastern
Oregon

State Engineer John H. Lewis has
Just returned from an extended triE
through eastern Oregon, accompanied
by James T. Chinnock and George T
Cochran, members Of the State Water
Board. John Dubins, engineer for the
desert land board accompanied the
water board on part Of this thp. Mr.
Cochran remained at Burns to continue
hearings in the water contests.
The water board is confronted with
a new problem of far reaching con
sequence to the development Of the
state. In connection with the adiudica.
tion of water rights on the ChcwGucan,
Silyies and Lost rivers, the amount Of
water which can be beneficiaily used
on marsh lands of the peaty nature
must be decided. There is little infor.
nation or precedent available. AS
there are several hundred thousand
acres Of the same type Of soil eventual.
ly come before the board, a general
study was made of all the principal
marshes Of the state. Soil samples
were taken for analysis and the in-
formation gained will be used in decid
ing which Of the many conflicting
statements in the Testimony before the
water board should be given greater
weight in making the decision.
That the peat marshes Of the state.
when properly drained irrigated and
titled, will ultimately be found to be
the most fertile, seems to BE- the opin.
ion of practical men familiar with the
problem.
The diking, at considerable expense,
of 1000 acres bordering upper Klamath
lake by +. p. Mccormack, Of Salem.
indicates confidence in ultimate sue.
cess. II has been discovered that the
tuIe growth must be killed by drying
out the marsh and using the land sew
