ted for other lines Of employment and
to atquaint those who have that i'm
preston that the requirements for en-
listment are so stringent that only
those of good moral character, who are
pract ically physically perfect specimens
of manhood can. secure admission to
the army. In short, that a certificate
of honorable service in the army Is IN

peteht and worthy for employment in
any civilian capacity to which he may
aspire and for which his education, ac-
quired during the army service, may
qualify him.
1t has been suggested that when the
Second Idaho infantry Is relieved from
duty at the border some provision be
made for the establishment in Boise IF
"a regimental employment bureau
third ugh which the men as they are
sdharged and who desire employ
ment, may be assigned positions for
which they are fitted, in all parts of
the state. Such a bureau, it is said,
will prevent those who shouldered the
mu$ket, finding themselves without a
job on their return home. This matter
is being seriously considered by those
interested in the welfare of the enlist
ed men representing this state on the
Mexican border.

Military training in the schools Of
the state will be provided for in bill
that Is being drafted for presentation
to the next Legislature. Due to the
passage of the new army bill, under
which the national guard is now oper-
ating, it is necessary for additional
legislation to be passed by the Idaho
legislature to receive the benefits I'M
der the federal act. The work of draft
ing the proposed measure Is now being
handled by men associated with and
interested in the militia Of the state.
They desire there shall be a free dis
cussion of the proposed measure and
it's terms before 1t is presented to the
legislature, on the part of the people
of the state.
Military training in the schools is not
new In many of the states. New York
adopted law and put it into effect.
Other states followed. 1t has been sue
cessful. Setting UP exercises form the
preliminaries of this training. They
are not only valuable from a military
but from a physical standpoint.
Under the new army law it is hoped
to correct some of the faults of former
laws and to especially disabuse the
mind of the public of the impression too
prevalent that the army is a refuge for
those who have failed in or are unfit

action of Governor Alexander in his
attitude toward the employment of
overseers and superintendents and in
his endeavor to have their salaries
based on such compensation as is
usually given men of that employment.

BENEFITS OF FALL FLOWING
Soil Is Generally in Better Condition

tby J. l.. HERS. Louisiana Experiment

The soil is generally In better condi-
tion In the fall for plowing than In
the spring. Fall plowing gives bet
ter texture to the soil and causes n
greater liberation Of plant food due
to the action Of the weather. BY turn
Ing the organic or vegetable matter
under earlier 1t has, Of course, more
time to rot and to become thorough
ly incorporated with the soil.
Fall plowing causes many Of the
weed seeds to germinate, thereby de-
creasing this pest the following spring.
Many insects are turned to the surface
and killed by the frosts.
The time for fall plowing should be
largely matter of convenience. The
heavier soils can be safely plowed
first. Land with great deal of vege-
table matter to be turned under should
be plowed early in order to give this
matter more time to rot. In the spring

BIRDS SPREAD HOG DISEASES
Crows and Buzzards Tear Flesh Of,
Dead Animals and Carry infec-
tIon to Nelghborlng Farm.

Crows and buzzards are all right
where they belong, but they have no
place in the hog lot. The buzzards
especially are most excellent disease
spreaders. Wherever dead animal
Of any kind lies exposed for any
length Of time these scavengers will
soon appear. They use their strong
claws for tearing the flesh and when
they go to the next place carry pieces
Of flesh and load Of infection with
them. If an animal dies of some in
fcctious disease and is left for the
buzzards to get ut they are sure to
carry the germs TO their next banquet
hall. probably some hog lot 20 miles
away.
Throughout the South they are pro-
tectcd because of their value us scav-
cngers, and where they are found in
abundance hog cholera prevails-if all
the hogs have not already died off.
The only way to fight this form of con-
tagion is to maintain such conditions
that buzZards and crows will not be
attracted.
The safe way to handle any animals
dying of contagious diseases is to burn
them. If buried, dogs may dig them
up and carry germs all over the coun-
try on their feet.

tBy w. r. WRIGHT,

It Is well-known fact that milk
ooes sour, but not everyone Is ac-
quainted with the changes which take
place during the souring process, the
cause of these changes, and how to
prevent them. A knowledge of. the
changes which take place during the
period of souring, and their causes,
enables one, taking reasonable precau-
lions, to preserve milk In Its naturally
sweet condition for number of addi-
tlOnal hours.
MILK contains a sugar, known as
milk sugar. which is changed by the
action or the smallest of plant forms,
called bacteria, into Tactic acid. When
about one-half Of one per cent of this
acid has been produced the mike -curd
separates and forms q solid mass with
clear acid whey about it. This acid
preserves the curd by preventing the
action of bacteria which would rot the
cud and produce offensive odors.
Two classes of bacteria begin to
grow and multiply in milk shortly aft
er milking; the Tactic which sours the
milk, and the digesting which rots the
curd. The latter class Is like the ont
plant, In that 1t Is able to grow Mt
