Unready, of Course

from The MurGgkce SertiHcN
For two years and a half the most frightful
of wars has been raging in Europe. and time
and again have acts OF lawlessness warned
the people of the United States of the grave
peril that sooner or later they might be
forced into the melee. even under the most
patient and pacific of Presidents.
That danger carried the plain lesson Of
preparedness.
Never was there a palmer prudential duty.
Those who preached it day in and day out
we're abused, sandered, baked, thvarted in
every way BY the pacifst gentry, the latter
day copperheads, and the professional i'm
pugners of the motives of everybody with
whom they politically disagree.
For the most part these anti-pre paraton
lists have been successful. There has been no
preparedness worthy of the name. The army
and navy are wofully short, not only Of men,
but of equipment. In the navy we are short
$4,000 men to man the ships We now have.
The army is simply the nucleus of an army.
And for over two years we have had Wis
IDLY hanging over US the danger of being
forced into situation fraught with the
gravest possibilities. The time might and
should have been utilized in putting the coun.
try in a reasonably dependable condition for
defence. But, thanks TO our pacifists and in
differents and jewellers in the fools paradise
Of theoretical security, next to nothing was
done.
Having thrown away the two years that
should have been utilized for preparedness
We shall require from one to two years more
TO put the country in the condition for de.
fence it might be in at the present time had
PATRIOTS common sense ruled our counscls.
If we compare our spirit and condition in
this regard with that of Japan, the result is
anNthinC but hatterng 70 us.

Date Fixed For Arbor Day

County Superintendent Winifred
Calkins has decided upon April 27 for
Arbor Day. Schools and homes
should join in cleaning up. planting
trees etc., and beautifying private
as well as public grounds.
The following proclamation was
issued by Governor Alexander:
Whereas. the soil and its pro-
ducts are the material source of our
strength and happiness and upon
its proper use depends the prosper
ity of our people, and
Whereas, the present genera
tion is coming to realize that the
use of the forests and the soil have
not been in accordance with the
economy, and
Whereas, the legislature of the
State of Idaho has seen fit to pro-
vide by law for an annual Arbor
day.
''Now, therefore, I Moses Alex
ander, governor of the state of
Idaho, realizing the value that the
suitable observance of this day will
be to the, state in instilling into the
rising generation the proper appre-
citation of our forests and our birds,
our trees and our shrubs, hereby
proclaim that the day set apart by
the various county Superintendents
Of Public instruction throughout
the various counties of the state,
shall be appropriately observed as
Arbor day by the teachers and chill
dren of our public schools by reci-
tation, song and appropriate exer-
cises in commemoration thereof,
and by the planting of trees and
shrubs on the school grounds.
"This shall be done in order that
the purpose of Arbor day may be
imbued into the rising generation
and awaken interest in the subject,
the consideration Of which will do
much to add to our prosperity and
the future wealth of Idaho and
thereby add to- our happiness and
prosperity as individuals. -

Roquefort Cheese

Rouuefort cheese is made in
France, from the milk of certain
breed of sheep which feed on wild
thyme, and the cheese has a wild
time trying to keep from sinking
itself to death in its infancy. The
wild thyme grows on the banks Of
the Lot, Tarn and other rivers in
x,he department of Aveyron in
France. and after it has first been
besheeped and then becheesed it
generates lot of the tarndese
smells that ever perambuMted down
the pike. .
Thyme is kind of an aromatic
plant with pungent odor and af-
ter it is converted into Roquefort
cheese it is pungentest thing known
to man. After. this cheese is made
it is put into solitary confinement
until its whiskers begin to turn
gray and gangrene sets in, when it
is taken and chained to post. Be-
-, fore it is served it is chloroformed
or knocked in the head with an AK.
It is then brought to the table in
little square sections about the size
of domino. 1t is served at the
close of meals together with black
coffee. 1t usually has a running
mate in the shape of round crack
er that has to be broken with a
maui.
Roquefort cheese is of a dull
white color, except in spots, where
modification has set in. Some
claim it to be inhabited, but this
is not true. Even the intrepid and
mephistic microbe fees from it as
we flee from pestilence. We have
seen Limburger cheese strong
enough to shoulder two-bushel
sack of wheat, but piece of Rogue
fort cheese the size of dice can
carry an election. Limburger is a
rose geranium when compared with
Roquefort. There is as much diff
erence as there is between the. purr
Of a kitten and the roar of lion.
Some people who claim to be civil
lied say they like Roquefort cheese,
but they only eat it because it is
imported and expensive. A man
who will eat it is an open sepulchre,
and should be quarantined or driven
into the wilderness and never again
allowed to look into the face of a
human being g.-Selected..

Growing Field Peas

A bulletin on the growing of
field peas gives some valuable in
formation that might be turned to
practical use by some of the farm
ers of the Potlatch. There will be
great deal of spring plowed land
to be seeded this season and as peas
yield we'll on spring plowed land, it
would be good crop to fill in with,
as it takes but little time to pre-
pare the ground and plant it.
Field peas may follow any crop
in rotation. The circular advises
fall plowing. but E. j. Armbruster
of Moscow. who is probably the
largest grower in the county, has
found the best results in spring
plowing. Mr.. Armbruster will
plant 26r acres of peas this year.
It is advisable to inoculate either
the soil orthe seed for the first
crop. Inoculating material, with
directions for using, may be pro-
cured at 20 cents per acre from the
Station. The bacteria take plant
food from the soil air for their own
growth and when they die the
same food is quickly available for
the growing plants. Increase in
yields varying from ten to hun
dred per cent has been noted in this
state as direct result Of inocula-
tion.
Soil may be prepared as for
grain but seeding must be done
early. Mr.. Armbruster advises
using 7-inch drill, though hereto
fore he has used 6-inch drill. He
also plants 100 pounds to the acre.
Nils P. johnson of Deary had in a
quarter of an acre of peas last year,
which he sowed broadcast and har-
rowed in. He sold the seed from
this patch few days ago, for $34.
He will SOW 10 acres this year.
The White Canada seems to be
the variety most favored by pea
growers in this county. Mr.. Arm
bruster says he harrows until the
plants are nearly inches high to
| kill out weeds etc. As peas ripen
early, wild oats and other foul stuff
growing with them is killed when
the peas are harvested.
| Where seed is infested with vice.
vii it should be fumigated with car
bon bisulphide. Put the peas in. a
tight bin or box and set shallow
pans containing the liquid on top
of the peas. Leave them closed up
for two days, when the seed will be
thoroughly fumigated and ready for
planting. One pound Of carbon BIZ
sulphide will prepare 60 bushels of
seed. The liquid is explosive and
care should be taken not to ignite
the fumes in any way. The treat
ment is most successful when the
temperature ranges between rs and
80 degrees F. If the peas are not
enclosed in tight receptacle the
treatment will not be successful.
AS in everything else, much of
: the science Of pea growing must be
acquired by experience. The hints
here given will be helpful. Peas
are not hurt by frost, and are a
very profitable crop. They make
excellent feed either as hay. ensil-
age or when the ripened seed is
ground up with barley or other
grain.
} Varieties recommended by the
: Station for this climate are Blue
e Prussian, Bangalia and White Can

No. 16, which was signed by Cover
nor Alexander this week, Latah

tion Latah county was in the first

to perform not less than eight and
preferably ten hours of hard, useful
manual labor six days in the week.
His thought is that a prisoner, after
release, is likely to travel along in
the grooves which he has been COM
pelled to follow during his confine-
ment, and says that if prisoners un-
der the present system are governed
by that theory they cannot be any,
thing but vagrants, beggars and
loafers, satisfied with the meanest
material surroundings if only they
can be idle.
The care Of the poor and INDECENT
is a constantly growing burden, ap-
proximating in Latah county $4,000
per annum. The average number
Of inmates of the county home is
over nine, and the average per cap
ita cost of keeping them is $172.60
each. This per capita cost, he says.
has increased materially in the last
few years.
He believes the county home
should be made a 'model farm"
with buildings painted, grounds
beautified, fences kept up and soil
intensively cultivated. None but
high-grade stock should be kept,
and the work necessary to care for
the farm should be done by the in
mates of the county Jail. To this
end he suggests the erection of an
auxiliary Jail building somewhere
on the farm, leaving the Jail quar-
ters to be used exclusively for men
waiting trial or for U. S. prisoners
if the latter cannot be required to
perform labor.
The report holds that three items
may fairly be considered in eompar-
! ing the official and financial records
of different counties over a period
of years, namely:
l. Efficiency or service given.
! 2. Economy of management.
g., Freedom from debt.
With this basis of comparison the
report presents figures taken from
actual records of number of coun-
ties in Idaho, leading "to the indis-
putable fact that Latah is the best
governed county In the north and
probably in the entire state"
An illustration is the cost of purely
county government, exclusive of
roads and schools during a recent
year. Such a comparison shows;
Kootenai county $1O5, ,OOO
Twin Falls county $4,000
Nez Perce county $4,000
Latah county $4,000
The report closes with an appeal
to the commissioners and the public
to insist upon reports of expendi
lures being made in parallel columns
constantly comparing the cost Of
each governmental activity with the
; cost of the same thing during preced
, ing periods of similar length here
and in other counties of similar afea
population and wealth. Mr.. Defen
bach quotes the editor Of the Satur
day Evening Post to the effect thai
such a method is the first great steE
in economical and efficient govern
ment." He endeavors to impress
the thought that economy is matter
of specific items and not of general
izations, and as an illustration o.
specific savings that could be effect
! ed without impairment of the servic.
he recommends the making of thu
assessors office the place to collect
taxes; in other words, a return t.
the old system. and also advocate
the abolition of the Office of probat'
: Judge.
