will be some litigation and

to first class water rights, as
they turned over their rights

They are entitled to this. 1t
is to be hoped that an equit-

and that all concerned will

ably know, is the largest and most practical weekly
farm paper published in the Intermountan West
1t doesn't try to farm the whole United
States, but gives it's readers only such things
have practical application in this section.
As it's name implies, it gives the Idaho farmer
each week digest of all the important news of the
world, in addition to weekly review of the best
things appearing in the Eastern and Western farm
journals at all times applying this test to each
and every artcle--'Is it applicable or of interest
to a settler in the irrigated Northwest"
In addition to publishing general farm news,
the paper has special departments on Poultry,
Dairying Live Stock Horticulture, Cooperation etc
You wont find any tiresome long winded
''space filters in this paper-but on the contrary
will find the contents crisp, concise and boiled
down for busy farmers.

PEOPLES GAS WORKERS MAY
UNITE FOR BIG STRIKE
The GaswOrkers' union has got
the Peoples Gas Light & Coke Co. on
the jump.
With the strike of pipefitters and
street workers in its second month,
the hope of the gas company to
crush the strike is one gigantic cam
paign has proven a failure.
1T looks" said Frank Chambers,
president of the Gasworkers' union,
'as if the company has played its last
trump and we have taken all Of the
tricks.
The west shop is tied up good and
tight and the workers of the north
and south shops are just awakening
to the fact that the opportunity is at
hand to step in and give the company
the whipping of its life unless it
comes to time and agrees to pay de-
cent wages.
Workers of the north and south
shops have been asked to attend the
regular meeting Of the union tonight
at Flanagan's hall, Randolph and
Market SITS, at which plans for
widening of the strike to embrace
all shops will be discussed.
AT present pipeftters employed
by the Peoples Gas are paid less than
half the rate which union filters get
and the work is far more dangerous.
I'VE have the gas company tied up
at the west shop all right. The meter
men and other shop workers there
have been practically idle for weeks"

Mental depression or insanity, due
in some instances to the loss of rela-

murder or suicide has occurred near

of those are being hushed up and
others get but scant attention in the
Berlin newspapers because of the
overwhelming interest in the war.
Two girls robbed another in a Ber-

To escape arrest they tried to hang
her from a chandelier. She pleaded
to be cut down. They let her. body
