SENATOR soRAH
NOT AN ISSUE


In the last few days the Brady
republican machine in this state,
realizing not only that Wilson is
bound to carry the state, but al
so that there is every prospect
that the democratic state ticket
will be successful, has been ap-
pealing to the voters of the state
to stand by Borah.
Borah is not a candidate and
not an issue in the campaign. He
was in the state for a time and
made a few speeches. Realiz-
ing that the success of the Brady
Davis machine at this time
would mean the cutting of his
own throat when he comes up for
reelection two years from now
two weeks ago left the state and
has been campaigning in Wis
consin.
The republican state central
committee, realizing the desper-
ate straits of their state ticket.
has been flooding Borah with
kilograms beseeching him to re-
turn to the state and use his in
fuence with the voters to try and
stem the tide. He, however.
turned a deaf ear to their en-
treaties and remained in the east
saying that his health would not
permit Of his doing any more
campaigning.

Candidates for
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

The most important branch Of
County Government is the Board
Of County Commissioners and the
principles 10 advocates. In our
support Of the present board we
merely ask that their record dur
ing the past two years be justly
compared with that Of any other
board in any county Of the State.
During the organization of
our county the present board
carried us over that period at a
total cost to the taxpayers Of
Beewah County Of S14,842; while
in Boundary County, created at
the same time, the cost of Or
ganizing placed a burden Of $751;
233 on the shoulders Of the tax
payers or better tina twice that
icurred by our own board.
The present board has consis-
tently lowered the tax levy and
the expenses Of the county dur
ing the past two years. In 1914
the Kootenai levy Of i6 mills net
ted the old county from the ter
ritory now Benewah County,
$4,000; in 1915 our levy of IA
mills nettcd Benewah County a
total of Si28,35O, or a reduction
in taxes Of S4,25O.OO. In 1916
our levy Of 1875 mills netted
Benewah County Si23,7OO, or a
reduction of S4,55O from the 1915
levy, or a total of S8,8OO.OO re-
duction from the Kootenai coun-
ty levy. These same mon are
in a position TO give you a reduc-
ton of a like nature if given an
opportunity.
The present board is opposed
to bonding for roads as has been
advocated by a few individuals
because of the fact that such a
bond would place -Benewah cOun-
ty in practically the same final -
cial condition as now perpleXes
KOOtenai county. This is absO
lutely unnecessary as a general
levy of 2.5 mills with a special
levy Of 2.5 mills i'm each road dis
trict, collected on all property
assessable for road purposes, will
net Benewah county S35, 900 an
nually. This money expended
annually will bring us more eff
ficient service than $4,000 of
some bonding company's cash
spent in one season, to a certain
degree squandered, and would not
compel us to pay another $780,
600 in interest to increase the
dividens of the company.
In view of these facts we do
not believe that many of the tax
payers in Benewah county will
refuse the present Board or
County Commissioner their sup
port at the coming election.

BEAUTY OF THE HYDRANGEA
BY LIMA B. ROSE.

Inquiries have come in about good
fall Towering shrubs. It is likely If
vote were taken for the best late
Towering, hardy shrub the honor
would fall to the Hydrangea.
While there are shrubs that | like
better, this one seems to suit the
masses. 1t has the merit of extreme
hardness, easy culture, great forifer.
BUSINESS, late blooming and persistent
It's flowers lose their early white
ness as the season advances, but in
their pinky-brown stage they are not
without attractiveness, and even after
snow comes they afford pleasing ef-
fects when seen against a background
Of pure white.
In planting the Hydrangea l would
never advise using it singly. 1t is
vastly more effective when grouped.
By this means we secure for it a
strength and dignity which single
specimens never have.
The enormous heads of the bloom
have considerable weight, but they
are all the more attractive when they
cause the branches to take on a
graceful curve.

STUDY THE CATALOGUES
BY LIMA r. ROSE.

When looking over the catalogues
which come to us for the asking we
are often delighted into covetousness
by the description of shrubs, vines and
perennials, but the price asked, al
though merely nominal, place the for
lists plants beyond our reach.
In that case, we have but to give a
little time and patience to sowing
seeds and caring for the delicate
plants in order to have our longings
gratifed. The first thing to do is to
send our order to reliable firm. The
next is to give intelligent care to their
planting and growing.
Seeds of most of the desirable or
namental vines, shrubs, biennials and
perennials germinate readily, while
others are slow in sprouting, but if
planted in good soil and allowed time
the reward is sure.
We should inform ourselves on these
subjects as much as possible before
undertaking the work.
During February and March is usu-
ally the time selected for getting our
window boxes in shape, and in these
boxes may be planted the seeds, to-
gether with many bulbous and tuber-
Gus rooted varieties of plants. The
seeds may be had in mixed packages
for ten cents each, or single.
Do not overlook the orchid when
planning next years flowers.
These seeds may be purchased by
one person, the plants raised to trans
planting size and sold for few cents
each to others, thus covering cost of
seeds and care, or several may throw
in" and divide the seeds when they
come.
The former plan may be the more
economical, as not everyone makes a
success of growing plants from seeds.
1t is not always well to buy your
seeds of your country merchant; your
merchant may be honest, but his mer-
chant may not be. Send to reliable
firm, send early and get what you pay
for Do not confine yourself to an
nuals, but SOW the perennial seeds
and after the first year you will have
little trouble.
Nothing adds to the attractiveness
of G. home place more than thrifty
vines, and for most places, perennial
vines are best. For temporary screens,
annual vines will do. Seeds should
be started indoors early and trans
planted frequently in order to make
the plants stalky, and as soon as the
ground gets warm they may be set out
where they are to remain.
Many of these will grow but little
at the top for the first year, but will
be making root growth and be getting
Some of the shrubs and perennials,
and even the biennials may give
scant bloom the first year, and some
may wait for the first towering for
the third year.
If these are transplanted to the veg
etable garden, which is, or should be
from the poultry and ami
mails, and allowed to grow undisturbed
for the first season, much will be
gained. They can then be set where
they are to remain, either next fall or
the coming spring, early enough to
get a good start in growth, before hot,
dry weather comes.
For those who have nothing started
and little money to buy with, the col
ections" sent out by florists are full
Of promise. Many of our best seed
