AS IN MEXICO.

Under the new Mexican constitution,
politicians of that country have little
difficulty in. getting out the vote"
Eligible" registered voters who have
not some excellent excuse for not vot-
ing are subject to a penalty of a month
in Jail or a fine of from twenty to
two hundred pesos if they do not cast
their votes.
Venustiano Carranza, first chief of
the Constitutionalist army in charge
of the executive power, is the author
Of the constitution. He, also, is the
judge of the eligibility of voters.
There vas no likelihood, then, that the
successful candidate for president of
the republic at the elections last SUN
day would be other than Venustiano
Carranza, although two others-one a
perennial candidate and the other
practically unknown-will furnish a
semblance of opposition to the first
chief"
Despite the abuses to which the
Mexican constitution may be put, how
ever, its apparent attempt to bring
about a realization of the principle
thatthe exercise of suffrage at cleo
tions is one of the duties of citizen
ship, is worthy of some consideration
on the part of citizens of more favored
countries.-Twin Falls News.

LINSEED OIL TREATMENT
FOR DYING TREES,

A curious method Of reviving lam
gushing or dying trees was reported
recently to the French Academy of
Agriculture after being tested SUCCESS
fully in experimental gardens at Au-
tun, according to the April Popular
Mechanics Magazine. The earth was
first removed so as to lay bare the
larger root branches, in which longi-
tudinal Sits we're then cut and kept
open by wedges. These cuts were we'll
rubbed with linseed oil and after
awhile numerous small roots appear
ed, forming a sort of fur, and the trees
so treated rapidly gained new life and
vigor. The method was recommended
for trial in the case of languishing
fruit trees.

THE BUSINESS OF GOOD ROADS.

If it were only possible to apply the
precepts of ordinary business to the
building of roads the State of Idaho
and the County of Twin Falls would
have good roads. There is no ques-
ton as to the need of good roads, in
a general way the entire population
will subscribe to this, but when it
comes down to cost and figures the
advocate of permanent highways is
up against a stiff proposition.
AS the roads of Twin Falls county
are o it can be readily shown that
the cost of hauling a ton of hay into
Twin Falls from a point five miles dis
tant from the city in any direction is
greater than would be the cost of ship
ping the same load by train from Twin
Falls to Chicago. These results can

in many respects to influenza or dis

1t is caused by exposure and drafts

Ventilation should come through an

Following is a formula which is be-
ing used by several local farmers
where roupe has broken out.
Stir n pound napthalene flakes in
two gallons coal oil and mix two or
three days till dissolved, then add
one pint turpentine and n pint Of
crude carbolic acid. Spread this pre-
paration on perches before the chick
ens go to roost. Breathing the air
