Dim Your Lights

Auto accidents are frequent.
The dust adds to the danger of
collisions. At night the dazzling
headlights on dusty roads bewilder
approaching drivers. Be thought
full enuf to dim your own lights
when signaled to do so. Do not
try to break speed records over the
dusty roads. You may skid and
have :. a bad smashup. In driving
consider the rights and comforts of
others on the roads. Most all ac-
cidents come from careless and
fast driving. The only way the
safe and sane driver gets into &C.
cidents is to have some reckless
driver smash into him. Do not
follow too close to other cars. The
dust may blind you and cause an
accident.

and an effort will be made to clear
the matter up by having govern
ment officials open the letter and
ascertain the nature of it's contents.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
CAUSE SEX WAR
Being Invested With Proba-
bllity by Woman's Party

Is sex war imminent? The
New York Times says that the ar
gument that woman suffrage
would set one sex against another,
bring about a war of sex against
sex, in which few opponents of
woman suffrage even really believ-
ed, is now being invested with as
much probability as the Woman's
Party can give it," The Idaho
Daily Statesman Boise) in a re-
cent editorial says, "It is refresh
ing to have Mr.. Hughes express
plainly his condemnation of the
pernicious dogma of a sex vote. /. /.
A human society adopting the the
ory and practice of political segre-
cation according to sex would be
unlivable, Every healthy-minded
man and woman utterly condemns
the VICIOUS propaganda.
1t is, of course. exactly the 'po-
litical segregation" of women,
along with idiots and children,
still existing in many benighted
eastern states, against which the
Woman's Party is making its re-
markable protest. What every
woman of the Woman's Party
stands for is a chance for all
women to vote, as men vote, not on
sex lines at all, but according to
whatever principles and moving
forces" may actuate them at the
moment-as men do! What many
people fail to understand is that
the Woman's Party is merely q
temporary expedient, that it's idea
is that women should work anc
vote side by side with men instead
of continuing in their age-long con
dition of political segregation,
and that the life of the Woman's
Party could be snuffed out in {
moment by the passage by Congress:
of the Susan B. Anthony Nationa
Suffrage Amendment. It is mar
vel to all thinking persons that mel
will persist in continuing this Sc,
war! r!-Contributed.

The Educated Farmer

Farming is one of the last busi-
nesses to be helped by education,
but the help is just at present COM
ing very fast. In the old days,
when competition in farming was
not keen and when facilities for
transporting and marketing farm
products were poor, most every
thing had to be used or sold near
at home. Then there was very
little incentive for extra effort, as
no difficulty was experienced in
raising enough for home use. and
anything in excess could not be
sold to Vantage. With modern
transportation and marketing facil-
tiles, local farm products must COM
pete in the worlds market, and
the farmer who is not able to meet
this competition finds it difficult to
make living. Thus, farming is
yearly becoming more complex,
and the farmer who would succeed
must obtain the necessary training
to enable him to meet new condi-
tions. This means that the success
full farmers of the future will need
to receive special training along
agricultural lines. The farmer of
the future will he a trained farmer.

Delightful Picnic Dinner

A very delightful social affair was
the picnic dinner given Wednesday
evening by Mr.. and Mrs. Joday
Long. 1t was held on the grounds
in front of the Long residence and
a more slightly place would be hard
to find. Nearly fifty guests were
present and the jolly time had by
everyone will long be remembered.
Dinner was served cafeteria style
and the usual dainty refreshments
were served" would be anything
but descriptive term. 1t was a
delightfully."- satisfying dinner and
the kind that everyone could thoro-
ly enjov. After dinner the crowd
sat in a half circle around big
campfire where a jolly time was
spent until a late hour.

Richest or Poorest Woman?

Instead of being the richest
woman in the world" as she has
sometimes been described, Hetty
Green was one of the poorest.
Here is what is said of her in an
obituary notice written in New
York: Her most pretentious home
was at Bellows Falls, Vt., where
she spent many summers, but even
this place was notorious at that
place for never being in repair.
In winter she hid herself in some
of the least expensive neighbor-
hoods around New York guarding
her identity by putting the name
of her pet dog, Dewey" on the
door place. Her daughter Sylvia
was her only companion. The lat
ter she kept from society. but in
1909 consented to her marriage, at
the age of 80, to Matthew Astor
Wilks, wealthy New Yorker of 81
years. The lonely mother then
removed herself for time to a
suite of rooms in one of the fash
ionable Fifth avenue hotels, but
this luxury was soon given up.
With untold millions at her dispos-
al she lived in a dog kennel. What
woman in moderate circumstances
would be willing to change places
with her and be bound by her linn.
itations for enjoying her money?
Her money was a heavy burden tc
her and there was no compensation

dren, tho she works hard and dress

Grow Peas For Seed

A seventy acre field of Canadian
field peas, on Armbruster's ranch
northwest Of town. shows the value
and Importance of inoculating the
seeds of legumes with the nitrogen
gathering bacteria necessary to the
development of the nodules on the
roots of the plants.
Mr.. Armbruster's field was work.
ed this spring, and seed treated
with bacterial culture obtained at
the university was drilled in at the
rate of hundred pounds to the
acre. The first seed put in was not
effectively inoculated and Welded
plants much smaller and less vigor-
GUS than those from inoculated
seed, and bearing but few peas.
Seed that was successfully treated
produced large and vigorous plants
that are heavily loaded with peas,
and have on their roots large clus-
ters of the nodules in which nitro
gen is stored.
Mr.. Armbruster plans to let the
peas mature and will thresh them
for seed.-Star-Mirror.

Wednesday and remarked that the
grain crop on Cedar Creek ridge
was the finest that he ever saw on
the ridge. He has a field of beans
that were planted in check rows
that entirely cover the ground.
They are very heavily loaded with
beans and promise bumper crop.
Mr.. Longfellow cut about 135, 900
feet of lumber for himself and took
a number of small cuts for some of
his neighbors, so that he had fair

MONEY RAISED FOR
KENDR|CK FAIR
Fair Committee Meets With
Much Encouragement

The finance committee of the
Kendrick Fair met with splendid
success this week raising money for
the fall fair. The business men
are contributing very literally and
are willing to back the fair to the
limit. In nearly every case the
committee was told that when the
list was completed if there was not
enough money raised, to come back
and the amount would be increased.
Kendrick is united on the idea of
the fair this fall and it is proposed
by the committee to put forth
every effort to make the fair better
than is has ever been before.
Work has been started on the
premium list and it is hoped that
it will be ready for distribution
in a short time. The list includes
a prize for practically everything
Of an agricultural nature raised
in this locality. The prizes in
many cases are not large but they
will more than repay the winner
for the trouble of preparing the
exhibit. The satisfaction of feel
ing that your exhibit is a boost and
an advertisement for the Potlatch
will in most cases be a greater in
ducement for the exhibitor than
the idea of winning the prize.
A number of farmers have ex-
pressed desire to compete in the
general display. To enter this
class it will be necessary to see
Joday Long and have space re-
served as each Individual display
will require a space to itself.
There are great many farmers on
the different ridges who could get
up a very creditable general dis
play of grains, grasses, vegetables
and fruit. You may have better
products than you think. Even if
your display is not large it will
be greatly appreciated by the fair
management if you bring it in.
Also keep in mind the livestock de-
partment of the fair. Anyone hav.
ing blooded stock will get good re-
suits, from an advertising stand.

The Lohman Threshing Machine
Company and the Whitman Brothers
of Potlatch ridge have equipped
their threshing outfits with hose
reaching from the engine to the
separator. The idea is that when
a setting is made the engineer at
taches the hose on the engine and
fills it with water, the other end
being equipped with an open noz-
zle is hung just back of the cylin-
der. The engineer is usually the
first one to see a fire so that with
the hose equipment no time is lost
getting water into tie separator.
