TWIN FALLS LADY WINS PRIZE.

TWIN FALLS. Idaho.-Mrs. Alice
,Cooksley Of Idaho, whose genius Gre
ated the remarkable exhibit of but
ter flowers that have attracted such
wide comment and attention in her
two displays, one in the California
building and the other in the food
products building, was honored by the
grand prize above all exhibitors in
the food products building, a medal
Of honor, and two gold medals. which
is surely some glory fr oIdaho as
we'll as for Mrs Cooksley. There is
nothing like her work to be found any
where else in the. world.
Mrs. Cooksley wishes it to be under
stood that she is distinctly an Idaho
woman, her home is at Twin Falls
where she and her husband have a
large dairy ranch and to which, after
their sojourn at the fair, they expect
to return. Apart from advertising
the butter industry, her work is to be
commended from the standpoin& of
art and beauty.

PASSING OF THE WILD HORSE

The European war promises to mark
the final passing of the wild horse of
the range, the disappearance of the
bucling bronc so long associated with
the west. Even now there are no wild
horses such as once roamed the ranges
and with the inroads being made upon
the west by the warf1 his half-civiliz
ed brotherfi the bronco, is sure to dis
appear. Thousands of horses have
been taken from the Intermountain
states Not only have the British and
French buyers invaded this section,
but representatives of the Italian gov
for months. During the last few weeks
an Italian buyer purchased several
hundred horses and so great was his
haste to get them to his country that
they were sent by express from Den
yer to the east instead of by freight.
There they were hurried aboard a
steamer to Italy.

It takes live men to make town.
Dead men are only fit to inhabit GEM
eteries. If they are really decidedly
dead all over, we tenderly lay them
away in the sleep of the tomb; if
they are dead to all enterprise and
spirit, outside the narrow lines Of
their own selfish interest and yet per-
sist in walking around, moving their
calloused hearts and conscience
where real business is wanted to push
and throb with vigor, they are only
like the drone bees, in the way until
they are stung, to death and dragged
outside the hive of legitimate indus
try. Twelve really live men are worth
more to a town generally than
round thousand of such useless mat
erial that lays around like rubbish in
a rushing stream that is aching and
foaming to run mills and factories.
Live men bless and dead men curse a
town Smith Co. Kansas Journal

WOMAN'S DAY
is COMING
Ladies Will Hold Meeting
At Chautauqua

Friday, July 16. is the day of the
regular meeting of the Woman's club
in Richfeld and will be celebrated as
Woman's Day at the Chautauqua.

ments in and near Boise with womens
clubs this past winter she has been
requested to speak this day on a sub
ject which the Richfield club has had
under consideration this year
The talk will concern childhood in
it's growth into maturity with the
psychological elements interpreted
with their spiritual meaning. While
resident in New York DR.. Greil was one
Of the lecturers appointed by the board
OF education of that city to speak be-
fore the parents at the night schools.
She was also the examining physician
of the Manhattan Trade School for
Girls.
Dr. Greil is an extensive traveller
and two of her lectures at the Chau-
tauqua will be on current subjects in
connection with those countries. She
has been the guest in most of the
homes of the American ambassadors
in Europe and will tell of the life of
our diplomats from the standpoint of
one intimately connected with it.
A lecture of great interest is the one
which describes the opening days of
the war. At that time of strain DR..
Greil was visiting at the home Of the
Russian ambassador in Paris and
knew of the events which surrounded
that palace. Later she departed on
the train taking the Americans to
Rome and assisted in the distribution
of United States funds for it's citizens
to return to this country. In manner
she is French, with the warmth of the
romantic countries. This mangetism
carries In the talk and assists in MAX
ing her hours upon the platform of
rich memory to her hearers.

The superiority of Idaho's agricul-
tural products was again recognized
this week when 1876 medals were
awarded the states agricultural ex-
hibit at the Panama exposition. Idaho
won more medals of honor more gold
medals, more silver medals and more
bronze medals than any other state or
country represented at the exposition
leading all in competition with the
entire world. Idahos fruit is yet to be
judged but it is foregone conclusion
that the horticultural exhibits will
equal or excel the record made by the
agricultural display
Medals of Honor
Medals of honor were awarded the
products of both the Meridian and the
of the same class were won by pota-
toes grown in the Boise valley and a
fifth medal of honor was given the
Idaho exhibit as whole on the
strength of the showing made. as COM
pared with the displays from other
states.
Twenty-one gold medals were won
on wheat, oats, peas, barley alfalfa,
clover. timothy. corn, etc, and 100 sill
yer medals on the same class. To-
matoes and one or two other veget-
ables (canned) and a cheese display
from Bull also received silver medals.
Grains. grasses. etc, won 70 bronze
medals.
This Section Leads.
While the prize winning products
came from nearly all sections Of the
state, the Boise valley and especially
Canyon county, and the Richfield tract
furnished by far the greater part of
the Idaho exhibit. L. 1. Young of
Nampa won silver medals on wheat,

Fire Engines Beginning.

It was not until the close Of the
sixteenth century that the hand squirt
was introduced into England, and they
were extensively used in the great
London fire in 1866. Soon after the
commencement of the seventeenth
century the Londoners perceived the
convenience that would arise from
fixing these squirts to a movable cis-
tern, and applying their power through
the means of lever, and the first en-
gine thus obtained was considered a
great mechanical achievem ent.

Ted, to fall to the ground in the
