NEW BRITISH WAR
 CABINET IS FORMED
Winston Churchill Goes Out and BaIfour, Chamberlain and
 LansdOwne Enter.
NEW BRITISH GOVERNMENT FORMED

LONDON, May 24-The formation of the coalition cabinet has been completed and the names will be an nounced in few days. It is generally understood that Winston Churchill first lord of the admiralty will be e minated and that Arthur J. Balfour will take his place Lloyd George chancellor of the exchequer will remain in power contrary to the expectations of some of his political enemies who worked hard to have him left out Other members of the new government will be Austin Chamber lain and Lord LansdoWne. Balfour was formerly prime minister in the Conservative administration and Chamb erain and Lansdowne are both members of the same party which has been in opposition to the present govern men for several years. The formation of coalition gov emment is said to be due in great measure to the desire to let all political parties secure place in fighting the common enemy. Chamberlain is a of the late Joseph Chamberlain the leader of the Liberal Unoniss in his time and the most powerful foe of the Liberals The inclusion of those three Tories is expected to create opposition from the Nationasts and the labor party but the country seemed to be overcome by feyersh desire for change in the belief that some results might be ob taned in the war The downfall of Churchill gives sas faction in many quarters but it is generally regarded tragic ending to what promised to be brilliant career and paraleled only by the sad ending of the career of his father, Lord Randolph Churchill. The mother of the younger Churchill is American Lady Randolph Churchill.

CALL ITALY A TRAITOR

VIENNA, May 24-The Emperor Franz Josef issued
 letter today to the people in which he denounces the act of Italy in declaring against Austria as the most treacherous in the history of the world He reminds his people that Italy had been the ally of Germany and Austria and had reaped the benefits of such alliance when she was at war with Turkey and had her rights threaten ed elsewhere while she refused to aid her allies when the moment of danger came and now turns against them for her own selfish benefit The emperor concludes the state ment by reminding the people of the empire to remember their victory the last war and to put foh every effort to repeat it. wild patriotic outburst followed the re- cept of the declaration of by Italy here Vast crowds marched to the Italian consulate and attempted to attack it but the police charged and saved the building and it's occupants The war with Italy will be the one most bit tery waged by Austria.

SPAIN'S THIEF
 TRIES SEWARD
FAMOUS GAME TRIED NOW BY SPANISH GENIUS ON
 R. R. TERMINAL.

That Seward has gained a new i'm pOrtance in the eyes of the outside world since it's selection as the ocean terminal of the government railroad is proven by the fact that the famous Spanish Prisoner" has now directed his attention to us. This individual has been noted in past years. His scheme is to write from Madrid, Spain, to people all over the world telling that he a prisoner and that his beautiful daughter of sweet six teen is in danger from his enemies. If he can secure a certain trunk which contains a note on the Bank of Eng land he can bring his tragedy to a triumphant ending and confuse the williams who have placed him in dur ance vile.
 The letter received on the last mail by Chas Krefting of Seward from this financier contains the same old stuff and more of a similar nature. Some money is asked to save him and the modest maiden who has the honor of being his daughter. It is too long a rigmarole to be published at length but Seward ought to be proud of be- ing noticed by this world-famOus art ist, and Seward ought to be careful.

iExPENsE OF CRAWLING ROAD
iProbIem of Crawling Highways at
! Moderate Cost Solved by Commits
sioner Rheinhardt of Idaho.

! Evidently Otto Rheinhardt, commits
.Isioner of the Nampa highway district,
Canyon county, Idaho, has solved the
problem of graveling the highways at
moderate cost, writes E. F. Stephens
lin Denver Field and Farm. Three
years ago he decided to gravel the dis
itrict's share of the boulevard between
Nampa and Caldwell. A half mile
Iaway, Indian creek runs parallel with
this boulevard and there an abundant
supply of gravel was procured. Fortu-
nately the very heavy traffic incident
Ito hauling rails and ties for the In
iterurban electric line track cut through
the gravel, mixing the underlying soil
with the superimposed gravel in suit
liable proportions for cementing firm,
smooth roadbed. A percentage of clay
smooth or volcanic ash soil mixed with
gravel makes hard, smooth roadbed
not likely to absorb the rainfall. The
result on the boulevard has been to
secure a very serviceable roadbed
highly commended by local and United
States engineers.

to the west, called Orchard avenue, de-
tcided to gravel on the following plan:
The farmers to donate the use OF
teams and wagons with dump boards.
The Nampa highway district to provide
gravel, usually donated by those VINO
have it, pay the shovelers and man
ito help dump the loads and also spread
and smooth the gravel on the road
bed, using for this purpose King
drag. The freshly graveled roadbed
should be smootaed with King drag
or other implement weekly for two
months or unit. settled and cemented
with the underlying soil. Four inches
lof gravel in the middle of the roadoed
with two inches on the sides most
readily mixes with the underlying sou
in such proportions as to shed rain
and form a smooth, solid bed. Heavy
traffic cuts through the gravel in wet
weather until enough underlying soil
has been mixed and cemented with
the gravel to shed rain and create
lSOllQ TOaQCeu.
A moderate percentage Of clay soil
mixed with the gravel as applied Will
pack and cement from the beginning.
The clay gravel banks along the re-
Iclamation bitches piled by the dredges
supply ideal material for graveling our
roads. This mixture of clay, sand
and gravel packs from the very first
and does not need underlying soil cut
in by heavy traffic. Coarse gravel
free from clay or soil, will need an ad-
mixture Of soil from below to secure
hard. smooth roadbed. Orchard ave
nue. has now been graveled two years.

STATE AID FOR GOOD ROADS
One Reason Why Food Prices Are
Hiuh Is Because of Cost Of Haul
ina Over Bad Highways.

Nearly every one of the state legis-
latures Is considering demands for
more help for road building, says st.
Joseph News-Press. Ten years ago
all the states together put up but
So 600, 900 for road building, exclusive
of local funds. In 1914 they spent
s43, 100000. But as four-ffths OF this
was done by six eastern states ana
two Pacific coast states, the problem
lis far from solved nationally. Many
of our big problems always come back
to the cost"of-living question.

PLANT Nut Trees.

Some nut or fruit-bearing trees set
out on country roads so feet apart
would add much of beauty and com
fort to the highway. It would be nee
iessary, of course, to have well.round'
ed roadways to drain of the water
for mud holes and poor roadbeds
would not dry out quite 30 fast as
where the sun shines on the road
bed all the time. The better road
beds would be well worth while

SPRAY TO PROTECT ORCHARD
Two Most Important Funeiciecs for
Summer Spraying Are Bordeaux
Mixture and Lime-SuIphur.
(BY w. II. CHANDLER.)

(By W. H. CHANDLER)
Spraying is done for the purpose of
preventing injury to the fruit, foliage
and wood of trees and other plants
caused by disease and insects.
Diseases of plants may be caused
by the growth in the tissues OF bac'
terra or fungi. Bacteria usually grow
beneath the surface and cannot be
combated by means Of spraying. Some
fungi grow upon the surfaceI sending
feeding organs down into the tissue
from which they secure nourishment
from the plant sap. These fungi are
reproduced by means of spores which
are carried in the air until they settle
upon leaf, fruit or wood, where they
germinate and grow, becoming the In

furious fungous tissue If the leaves
or fruit are covered With a substance
which is poisonous to the fungus the
spores will be killed at the time they
germinate. Substances that thus pre-
vent the growth of terminating spores
are called fungicides. AS a rule these
fungicides must be applied in summer
when the fruit or foliage is likely to
be infected. However in the case of a
very few diseases like peach leaf curl,
spraying in the early spring before
growth starts is successful.
The two most important fungicldes
(sprays to prevent fungous diseases)
for summer spraying are Bordeaux
mixture and lime-sulphur.
We have two classes Of insecticides
(sprays to kill insects). For insects
that eat from the surface of the plant
a poison on the leaves or fruit will
kill the insect. Usually the spray used
in this case is some compound contain
ing arsenic. The most important In
secticide is arsenate of lead.
There are also insecticides used to
kill insects that do not eat from the
surface, but penetrate the surface with
their beaks and suck the juices from
beneath. 1t is plain that such an in
sect could not eat any poison placed
upon the leaves, but must be destroyed
by spray that kills by coming in con-
tact with it's body, SO insecticides for
sucking insects are sometimes spoken
of as contact sprays. The most i'm
portant of these are probably lime
