TREASURY CERTIFICATES
 ARE OVERSUB6CRlDED
$4o0, 0,000, 900 Bearing Per Cent. Inter.
 est and Maturing December IS.

Washington. Oct. 2.-Lfberty loan financing was marked today by the over-subscription of the largest issue of short time treasury certificates of indebtedness put out by the govern nent. $40O,000, ,000. The certificates bear four per cent. interest, mature December Is and may be redeemed sooner upon ten days notice.
 The amount of the over-subscrip- tion was not stated by the treasury tonight, but the taking of the entire issue, which is one third greater than any previous offering, with a margin to spare, was regarded as presaging the success of the second Liberty bond is- sue.
 Today's offering of certificates brings the total up to $1,250, ,000, ,000 or more than forty per cent. of the minimum set by Secretary McAdoo for the sec ond Liberty loan. With the proceeds of the latest certificate issue availa- ble, the government will have antici- pated the second liberty loan receipts to the extent of s1.250, 100000 and much of the money will have been paid cut.

Speculative trading in cottonseed oil futures on the New York Produce Exchange has been forbidden according to state lnent here today by Edward Flash, Jr., vice president of the exchange. Recent trade fluctuations in this mar ket, the only open cottonseed- oil market in the United States, have at- tracted- the attention of the federal food administration he declared, and brought about conferences with ex- change officials which resulted in a decision to prohibit further specula- tive dealing.

Clover Renews the Soil.

"Grow sweet clover" is the
answer for poor soil or worn-out
pastures which no longer support
live stock prohtably, according to
investigators of the United States
department of agriculture, who
have found that thousands of acres
of sweet clover are furnishing
annually abundant pasturage fol-
all kinds of stock on soil wher,
other crops made but little growth.
In many portions of the middle
west sweet clover bids fair to solve
serious pasturage problems, &C
cording to Farmers Bulletin $40,
"Sweet Glover: Utilization" ust
issued. Native pastures which no
longer provided more than scant
living for a mature steer on four OF
five acres, when properly seeded
to sweet clover, will produce
sufficient forage to carry at least
one animal to the acre throughout
the season. Dairy cattle, horses,
sheep, and hogs all do we'll on
sweet clover. Land which is tt o
rough or too depleted for cultlva-
ton or permanent pastures which
have become thin and weedy may
be improved greatly by drilling IN,
after disking, a few pounds OF
sweet clover seed per acre. Not
only will the sweet clover add
considerably to the quality and
quantity of the pasturage, but the
growth of the grasses will be i'm
proved by the addition OF large
quantities of humus and nitrogen
to the soil.
Sweet clover has proved to be an
excellent pasiurage crop on many
If the best farms in the north
central states. In this part OF the
it is often seeded alone
and pastured from the middle OF
The latter part of June until frost,

Dastured after harvest.

Moscow, July 13.-The method
employed in California to kill the
fruit trees has been brought into the
northwest BY the l. w. w. and has
perhaps already been set to work in
the lewiston Charleston district. The
presence of the California method In
the possession OF the /. W. w, was
disclosed here recently when six
leaders of the organization were
taken from train bound for Lewis
ton. The men stated they were
hound for the Lewiston fruit district
and when they were searched here IL
was discovered that each man carried
a wallet OF copper and tacks. 1t has
beeu learned that the tacks are used
TO hold the copper on the bark Of the
trees and the action of the san
generates poison that kills the tree.

IdahO'S Draft
To Be 2287
Consumption to be pro rated according
to Registration.

A formal order by President
Wilson drafting 687,o 900 men into
the military service under the
selective CONSUMPTION law was
promulgated at Washington, last
Friday, by the war department,
together with an official allotment
showing what part of the total
must be furnished by each state
and territory.
Out of ALSO men who regis
tered in Idaho June S, only 2287
will be drafted for the national
army. This low number is due to
the tact that Idaho had a large
national guard in proportion to
population and contributed liberal
ly to the regular army since April
I. On that date Idaho had o62
men in her national guard and
recruited 6s8 more before June 80,
and in the same period recruited
III for the regular army. The
total of these leaves only 2287 to
be raised by draft.

County Assessor
Wins Case
Wonnacott is Awarded Back Salary and
Expenses by Judge Woods.

Coeur d'Alene, July i6, 5-County
Assessor Fred E. Wonnacot will
receive pay in full for his service
to kootenai county. A judgment
against the county commissioners
was given today by Judge Woods
OF Wallace calling for nearly srsco
back salary ofthe assessor in Il 6
case OF Wonnacott vss county
commissioners.
When the new county. commits
sioners were sworn in to their
office at the first OF the year they
Immediately refused to recognize
Wonnacott as county assessor on
the latter's claims that his
predecessor, w. b. Mcfarland.
had not qualified. having died
before being sworn ia. A mandate
from the supreme court, however,
forced them to accept Wonnacott
tor another term. Following this
the commissioners refused their
approval on his salary voucher for
the last quarter of 1916, together
with SI4.Io expenses, on the
recommendations of L. F. Rein
hard, expert accountant tLen
auditing the books of the county.
The commissioners since that
time have been Withholding
Wonnacott's salary. The litigants
stipulated that they would let The
balance of the salary be governed
by the outcome of the suit bv
Wonnacott against the county for
the $3.50 salary and expenses.
Stipulation was also entered into
as to the securing of non resident
judge.
The arguments Of counsel lasted
a short timettoday, the case being
closed following the objection of
Attorney r. E. Mcfarland, for
Wonnacott, objecting to the ad-
mission of any evidence by the
county in the support of its cross
complaint, on the grounds that the
substance of the complaint was
outlawed under the Idaho statute
OF limitations. The court sustained
the objections, which barred the
county from taking or making any
further effort 10 withhold the
money.

The plea OF the visiting sherIGs for
some new method by which they
cou q adequately cope with the situa.
ton that has baffied them for a
month went unanswered. Governor
Alexander's only proffer was the use
OF sufficient deputy sherlffs. To the

would be futile to close all other
industries In northern Idaho to get
deputies to restore produc-
ton Ia the lumber camps the
governor had only an evasive reply.

INGENIOUS LETTER BOXES.
Clever Device In Use In Cities and
Towns In Hungary,

Towns In Hungary.
"One sees mail boxes In operation In
Hungary, both in cities and small
towns, that are the last word In eff
cheney, and they are certainly good to
look at as to their design" says F. r.
Schlesinger. 1T was fourteen years
ago that saw them, and they had
then been In operation for many years
and have yet to see anything better
In any part OF the world.
'The letter boxes are such that one
does not have to lift any part of them
In order to drop the letter. There is a
wide slot on both sides protected by
brass flaps working on hinges, SO that
the letter drops down without any DOS
sibility of becoming stuck near the ton
in the lift, as In our boxes. Further.
more, the letter carrier does not touch
any letter when he takes the mail
out He has bag with locked steel
oblong automatic top. the key to which
is in the postoffice.
This top Of the bag is slid into a
slot at the bottom of the mail box,
which opens automatically and can
only be opened by the insertion of this
specially prepared bag. BY virtue Of
this the entire bottom Of the mail box
rolls back and its contents drop straight
down into the bag. Upon removal OF
the bag by sliding it outward the bot
tom of the box slides back into place
and locks automatically, as well as the
bag with its automatic top."-New
