is insufficient in warmth as a whole, or
leaves portions of the body exposed to

Idaho a Big State.

To those OF us who remember Idaho IN
our school Biographies as a small pink
block, shaped like an easy chair facing
east, it may be Of interest that this
state which in 1890 added the forty.
fifth star to the constellation of the flag,
is nearly as large as Pennsylvania and
Ohio combined and larger than the six
New England states with Maryland in
cluded for good measure. 1t is divided
into 33 counties, the Smallest of which
is half as large as the state OF Rhode Is
land and the largest greater than the
combined area of Massachusetts, and Del
aware.
Idaho covers an area of S3,SSS square
miles, divided principally between the
Rocky mountain region and the Column
bia plateau, only small part, in the
south east corner of the state, lying in
the Great Basin. In elevation above sea
level the state ranges from 735 feet, lat

of Hyndman peak. 1t is drained main
w to the Columbia through Snake river
and its tributaries and has an annual
rainfall Of about II inches, the range
in single year at different places being
from six to 3S inches. The industries of
the state are chiefly agriculture, stock
raising, and mining, Hay, wheat, oats,
and potatoes are the principal crops. A
large area is cultivated by irrigation.
The mineral production includes gold,
silver copper, lead, and zinc. The out
put of lead in 1918 was valued at 3d.

Grape'NutsFlavor

Grape-Nuts food is probably the most APP
petizing form in which honest whole wheat is
utilized as food
But to whole wheat is added matted barley
in making Grape-Nuts, and the sense of taste
quickens at once when spoonful of the food
is eaten with cream. For the barley has
rich, individual taste which, blended with
the sweetness of wheat, creates a rare
flavor recognized by the palate as unusually
new and delicious.
Aside from its wonderfully Vi alizing value
as a food. Grape-Nuts has flavor that has
made it a favorite everywhere.

Cleveland, Nov. 9.-Newton D. Baker
secretary of war, will resign after Marcel

This became known definitely yesterday
1t was said that Secretary Baker de

serve only one year, that he intended to

Newton Diehl Baker, often described
las more like President Wilson than any
other man in the country. was made sec
rotary of war on March 6 last. He was
appointed to fill the vacancy in the cab
met caused by the resignation of Lindley
VI. Garrison of New Jersey.
Mr. Baker, a Democrat, was for many
years active in the politics of his native
state, Ohio. Always regarded as an as
tute politician, he gained the friendship
of Tom L. johnson and was elected di-
rector of law and was twice chosen as
mayor of Cleveland. He declined third
term. When Tom johnson was waging
his battles in the Ohio city, Mr.. Baker
was regarded as the balance wheel for
the rough and ready johnson. In this
capacity he helped the mayor through

announced soon after his appointment,
however that he was for preparedness.
Mr. Bakers brief career as secretary
of war has been stormy. On June Is he
signed the mobilization order calling the
National Guard of the various states to
the border. Criticism was heaped upon
him in the succeeding months when the
troops remained inactive.
Popular resentment was directed
against him when in political speech in
the last campaign he waS reported as
comparing the soldiers of Washington's
army to the bandits of Villa. Patriotic
societies all over the country condemned
him and his resignation was demanded.
He denied that he had cast any reiec

AT BRATTLEBORO

Caused Horse to Run

further corner and Mrs. Swanson was
thrown over the low railing to the bed
of the brook below. Mr.. Swanson was
pinned under the overturned carriage for
q moment, but as eye witnesses were
hurrying to his aid he managed to crawl
out, looked over the railing and leaped
to the aid of his wife, downward
plunge into shallow water on rocky
bottom of nearly 25 feet
j. l.. Bristol, who conducts a small
store at the corner of Elliot and VIII
liams streets, saw the accident and hur-
ried to the aid of the couple. When he
reached the spot Mr.. Swanson was in the
cold water nearly to his waist, blood
streaming from long cut over one eye.
He was slowly dragging his wife from
the water.
Mr. Bristol was obliged to 60 along the
bank several rods before being able to
climb down to Mr.. Swanson's aid. To-
gether the two men laid Mrs. Swanson
on the bank. She was bleeding profusc
ly from several cuts and wounds, but re-

The infdel often finds his match in
some of the old school preachers. An old

an unusually blatant infdel asserting his
disbelief in God, when he at last said to

lighted surprise.

One of the amusing things in connection with the window is the fact that "Ching," an Irish setter belonging to the firm las adopted the outdoor scene as his own and expresses his unqualified ap- proval of the display by remaining in the window constantly, dreaming no doubt, of times in the past, when he was the center of just such a spot in the real woods.
