PLAN RAILROAD
FOR NORTH FORK

Reported That Milwaukee Will Build
Extension From Elk River to Vicin-
ity of Pierce-SuryeyOrs Seeking
Route
Reports reaching Moscow today are
to the effect that the Milwaukee rail-
road has a force of surveyors seeking
a route for an extension of its line
from Elk River to the Pierce country
and that if it can be found that the
road can be built within an expend
iture of $1,500,000 that construction
may begin early next year. 1t is un-
derstood that the route contemplates
striking the North Fork of the Clear
water river and thence from the
mouth of Reeds creek to the Pierce
plateau. If such line were con-
structed it would mean that the ton
mage of timber would be routed out
by. way of Elk River. The develop
ment does not appear to contemplate
the building of the line to the main
Clearwater river.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-The captain

WITH ASSESSOR
Says Tax on P0tlatch COmpany's
Horses Cannot be Collected as
Assessed by the Board

Equally guilty with me, if 1 have
wrongfully or unfairly assessed any
property in Latah county, are Com
missioners Woody, Lyon, and McIn-
tire, for the law provides that they
shall scrutinize the tax rolls, tract by
tract, and item by item, and shall not
permit any unfair assessment to stand
on pain of a thousand dollar fine and
removal from Office" said J. G. Ven
nigerholz when interviewed today with
regard to the attack being made upon
him in the interests of the candidacy
of Mr.. Lyon for reelection.
Handbills being spread broadcast
today urge the taxpayer to put to MI.
Vennigerholz a number of questions,
and a Star-Mirror reporter acted up
on the suggestion.
''The commissioners did not COM
pel me to assess seventy head of
horses belonging to the Potlatch Lllm-
ber company The horses were as
sessed by me ,and are listed as per-
sonal property on taxpayers state
ment No. 1905 It is true that the
commissioners arbitrarily assessed
lie company on seventy head OF
horses, and listet; them on the real
property roll, where they should not
be, and did not chalee the assessment
against any real property. 1t will not
be possible for the treasurer, who is
the collector of taxes on real prop
erty, to collect the taxes against the
horses. That is only just however,
for the horses have been assessed
properly by me and the tax will be
paid as it should be- as personal prop
eriy tax. Thirty sets of double har-
ness, which as a matter of fact the
company does no. own, was also ar
bitrarily assessed against the compa-
ny by the commissioners. The cor
rect assessment is on the personal
property roll, where it should be-
1.-THE commissioners did not COM
pei me to increase the assessment up
on the Potlatch townsite," Mr.. Ven
nigerholz replied to question with
regard to that point. II should ex-
plain, perhaps" he added, "that Pot
latch is not an incorporated town, and
it's land and the improvements upon
the land are assessed separately. |
put the land in at hundred dollars
an acre, at which figure it has been
carried ten years and approved again
and again by the present commission
ers. The commissioners arbitrarily
raised it to two hundred and fifty dol
lars an acre. Better land can be
bought nearby for less than a hundred
dollars an acre."
1.-THE contract lands are assessed to
the purchasers of such lands, but the
lumber company looks after the pay
ment of taxes just as the holder OF any
mortgage would. The commissioners
did not compel me to raise the assess
ment on any such lands, so there is
no sense in asking me why they dld
it,"

most no fuel. There is considerable
prospecting for oil. If it should he

Finally, internal transportation ia
cilities are primitive and shipping,

Few Large Salaries.
To a considerable extent, how
ever, it looks as If it is expensive to
live in Argentina simply because the
people who furnish the necessaries
of life are able to extort the money.
The average Argentine is not paid
for his work in proportion to what
he- has to pay for his living.
A comparatively small number of
men, mostly cattle and wheat kings,
make huge sums. There is a fair
proportion of rich middlemen. A
great deal of the big money the coun-
try produces belongs to foreign in
vestors and goes abroad.
A salaried man is considered in
possession of good, round income
if he receives $3.50 to 5000 monthly.
OF course this does not go nearly so
far as it would in the United States.
A first class printer or locomotive
engineer may make at high as $175
monthly.
Bricklayers are paid from $3.50 to
$3.50 daily but do not have work
all the time. A carpenter, who also
has periods of unemployment, earns
from $3.50 to $3.50 daily.
There is a wide variation, accord
ing to season, in what an unskilled
| laborer receives. At times he gets as
low as 80 pesos and others as high
as 80 pesos monthly, or, in United
States money, from $500 to $500.
On a farm, it is possible to i'm
agine how a man might live on the
latter of these two sums, even in Ar
gentina. How he succeeds in doing
it part of the time on $500 per
month is a puzzle.
| 1t seems to be the consensus of
opinion that he can get enough of a
poor quality Of food but that his
shelter is such as would revolt self
respecting hog in the United States.
He wears whatever clothes he can
pick up.

is well known fact that flies are
much less troublesome in the dark
in fact, in perfect darkness they are
not troublesome at all.
The best plan is to keep the herd in
the barn where it Is cool and dark
during the heat of the day and turn
them out on pasture in the evening.
Under this treatment they are prac-
tically free from fly annoyances and
the milk flow is materially increased.
If It is not practicable to keep the
cows in the barns during the day this
plan must be modified to furnish them
a cool, dark place in the pasture. This
can be done by having small house
or shed, or even good shade trees will
help. -. $3.50. ~. Ill.,.
If all Of this Is necessary in the
handling Of the cows it is practically
Indispensable In the handling of the
young stuff on the farm. After being
weaned calves should have pasture
of their own, together with their own
house, into which they may 60 through
out the heat Of the day to keep away
from the flies. If the calves run with
the rest Of the herd they should be
given an opportunity to eat grain with
out being showed out of the way by the
older cattle. This is best provided for
by placing their feed inside of an in
closure the opening into which calf
can 60 through, but which will exclude
an older animal. Their feeding trough
must be scrupulously clean in order to
keep them in the highest healthy con
dition and should be cleaned out be-
fore each feed and the old grain re.
moved before new grain is added.
