!. JUDGE WALLACE N. SCALES.

1t took Governor Alexander some
time to appoint Judge for the new
Tenth judicial district but in the selec-
ton of Wallace N. Scales Of Grange
vile he made a wise choice.
Judge Scales will fill the bill to per
lection. For twenty-five years he prac-
ticed law in Idaho county and made
Grangeville his home. His reputation
as a lawyer Is state wide and he
achieved success and prominence in
the practice Of his profession which
seldom comes to lawyer outside Of
the larger cities.
The appointment of Mr.. Scales will
be approved by all the people in the
territory in which he viii labor and
it goes without saying that he will
put forth his best endeavors to per-
form his duties in a manner that will
build for himself a reputation as a
jurist who will deal honestly and fair
ly with all matters coming before him.
The Tenth district is made up Of
Nez Perez, Lewis and Idaho counties
and Judge Scales will do his first
work in Lewiston, completing the term
Of district court for Nez Perez county

THE SILO.

No half informed man will argue
against a silo ON the farm. man
may, for personal reasons, not care
TO build one on his farm, but to insist
the silo method Is a fake Is nonsense
and the limit of ignorance. As
matter of historical fact the sil0 Is
the most important element that has
been introduced into the stock feeding
situation in late years. Hundreds
and thousands of experiments have
been carried on by state and federal
experiment stations and by individual
farmers operating on q commercial
scale, and the value of the silo has
been firmly and permanently estaD-
lished. Ensilage is the key to the
economical and profitable feeding OF
beef, as well as dairy cattle. The
silo stands today as the most impor-
tant, practical and profitable adjunct
of the farm. 1t is big dividend
paying investment. To-day it is a
necessity on every farm, and a man
might better try to farm without
barn than without silo. One farmer
expresses the situation when he said:
Il would not take one thousand dol
lars for my silo If / could not replace
it,"
The man who talks against the silo
simply does not know what he is talk
ing about In 1922 the United
States Department of Agriculture
could find only 81 farmers in the
United States who used silos. At the
end of 1916 there were approximately
591 900 silos in this country. Wis
consin alone has about $4,000. The
central states of Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa,
Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska have
approximately 100000 silos. In fact
the silo is spreading throughout the
civilized world. Africa, India,
Japan, Australia, and even the Ha-
waiian group of islands today are
utilizing this wonderful method.
How often does rain ruin the
farmers hay? But rain only i'm
proves matters when the farmer puts
his crop into the silo.-Orofino Rep

~THE BIRTH OF A NATIONr

Others may come and others may
go-but there is only one Birth OF A
Nation. And any other attempt proves
to be only an ineffective parody on
the original.
AS an old Southern darkey, aftec

all plugged" out and the frightful
memory of the Klu Klux Khan revivi-
fled again in his superstitious Ethop-
ian heart -"Tha don't NEED to be
no udder-DIS one am plum sufic-
lance ~
The wife of Nero is quoted by his
torians as having said: May he never
have son, that there be but one Nero
and some such resolve must have taken
possession of Mr.. Griffith when, after
