bined with the proper feed of grain
alfalfa pasture is excellent for put
ting ON weight and it Is said tina
many farms would probably be more
profitable if their management cen
tered about the pasturing OF stocl
on alfalfa with the growing of enough
other crops to provide grain and
forage throughout the year.
If the weevils are not killed early
in the year they may be destroyed
after the first crop has been re-
moved by getting rid of all the
vegetation in the field, crushing the
clods, and filling the cracks so as
to expose the entire surface to the
sun. This is best done by covering
the field with a dust mulch, the
dust being an additional means of
killing weevils. Success obviously
depends upon doing the work when
the ground is dry and the weather
warm and bright.
The second crop may also be pro.
tected by spraying the stubble
Spraying may also be resorted to in
tn spring. From so to 100 gallons
per acre of a mixture of arsenite of
zinc and water in the proportion of
4 pounds of powder in 100 gallons
are used for this purpose. The ap-
parstus best suited for alfalfa spray
ing is described in detail in the
bulletin already mentioned. Still
arother recommendation made in this
bulletin is the stimulation of the
growth of the alfalfa by cultivating
he field in the spring. This does |
lot destroy the weevils but it
serves to produce larger and earl
or yield when their attacks make
'arly cutting necessary.
Up to the present, however, more
armers are concerned with prevent
ng the alfalfa weevil reaching their
ields than they are with controlling
In them. No one knows exactly
oW the WeeV1lS spread, but certain
acts in regard to this matter have
cen ascertained. 1t is known, for
that the insects are often
ound in green alfalfa fresh from the
cid and in second-crop hay and
mong potatoes which have been in
ontact with it. They are found also
| cured alfalfa hay, especially that ,
the second cutting. Potatoes often
re hauled in cars upon a bedding
green alfalfa hay and there is {
anger that the weevil may be trans
orted in this way. On the other
and, however, there is no evidenced
} show that the weevh spreads
ore rapidly along railroads than
sewhere.

PR0SpER|NG IN CANYON

That Canyon county farmers ar
prospecting Is given e striking demon
slration by the assessment roll o
livestock for 1916. A 20 per cen
increase in valuation of livestock i!
shown and large increase il
numbers as well, cattle alone show
ing an increase of 81 LIZ per CEN
in IL months
In spite of the continuous drain o.
horses for the foreign war zone, the
humber of horses and mules has in
creased from $3.50 of all descriptions
in the county year ago, to 1881
this spring.
The remarkable increase in cattle,
which speaks loud for the material
development of the county in that
particular, is told in these plain
figures: Of all kinds of cattle list
ed in Canyon county for 1915 there
were S4S1 as compared with a total
of 1884 this year. The difference
OF 1850 head shows plainly where the
increase of more than so per cent
comes in. The increased valuation
amounts to almost exactly 500, 900.
No item in the assessment roll
speaks more forcibly than this of
sound advancement and the full
swing Of prosperity on the farms
and ranchao IF tho coupty NaorIv
every rancher In southern Idaho be-
lieves that production of meat and
dairy products is to be one of the
largest contributing factors to the
permanent prosperity of the section.
That this remarkable development OF
the industry is continuing and will
continue for months to come Is un-
Questioned.
Not Many More sheep.
Strangely enough. though the sheep
industry is generally credited with
lourishing more successfully than
my other, the number of fleece-pro-
ucing animals show much less of
n increase. In 1915 the assessor and
is deputies found 4105 head of
heep in the county. This year the
lumber had grown to 1884. This is
n increase of but 10 per cent.
When the hog division Is reached
still less favorable showing Is
'und. Because of the high price Of
led stuffs and the temporarily low
rice Of pork at the beginning Of
le year, the growers of pork, in
manner, cut down their {
erds. From 8052 head Of hogs In
'15 the number this year fell to
$50, decrease approximating 20
IT cent. The net loss In valuation,
'weyer, amounts to but 100000.

eat has been the net increase in

 TOCAPTURE NEGRO
Four BlueCOatS Needed to Subdue
 DuSky Son Of Minister

Welfred Hestey of Plainville, a burly negro with biceps that would make Jack Johnson envious, was sent to jail for thirty days for resisting Officer Michael J. Cosgrove and was also fined s$5 and costs for breach of the peace by Judge Kirkham in police court today He entered Munch's sa- loon last night and stood on some platform scales after which he smashed his fist through the glass dial to show how strong he was. Officer Cosgrove arrested him on complaint and a merry little scrap was started. 1t was only after Officers Cosgrove, Richardson, Charles Grace and Will liam Hart had taken a hand and put the "twisters' on him that Hester was finally dragged to the police sta ton and there he continued to .Ight until he was locked in a cell Today Officer Cosgrove has a decided limp, resulting from a bad muscle bruise on the leg where Hester kicked him.
 It was very abject negro that was put to plea this morning, however. He apologized contritely and said he was sorry. He told the police he comes from Philadelphia where he is the son of a negro clergyman. and when he was sentenced to jail the re- mark was passed that ''this is no place for a minister's son."

New York May 30.-Instead of holding sectional tryouts for the na- tional championships in Newark on Sept. g, the Amateur Athletic Onlon through a special committee which met in Boston last Friday night, has decided to select the men who Will com pete in the titular meeting from among the winners in the champion ships of the various A.

 MT. Rubien has asked the authori- ties of the various associations to hold their championships about two weeks before the Newark meet. Special ar rangem ents will be made for the ath- letes of the Far West and Pacific Coast. According to MT. Ruben the Olympic Club of San Francisco, Los Angeles A. c. of Los Angeles, and the Multnomah A. c. of Portland, Ore, will each contribute big sum toward the expenses of their representatives. and will be aided by the Amateur Ath letic Union.

 Of these three groups exports of the first are the smallest in amount. The second group comes next and the third is largest.
 Our export trade has vastly in- creased in neutral markets entirely outside of the war zone. Comparing the seven months ending with January of 1914 with the seven months ending with January 1916 it appears that our export trade with Canada has in creased about thirteen per cent, with South America, about twenty per cent. with Africa nearly forty per cent. and with Australia forty per cent.
 War Burdens Europe Must Bear.
 Additional facts showing that the advantageous position of the United States in world commerce will con- tinue long after the war is over have to do with statistics on interest rates and wages in the periods following other wars.
 The London bank rate in the ten wear period preceding the Crimean war averaged three per cent. The rate for the five years succeeding the Cri- mean war averaged four and one half per cent. Take the scale of wages which existed in the United States in 1860 as a standard, or 100, and you find that wages during the period from 1850 to 1860 varied from 90 to 100; that upon the disbanding of the army in 1865, wages went down to 66: but that within the first year, as soon as the temporary readJust- ments could be made, wages increased and by 1870 were up to 134. The most marked effect of war upon good wages is that noticed in many of the skilled trades in Japan immediately
