FIND LITTLE COAL IN IDAHO
Investigati Shows Deposits Not of
Commercial Value

In response to numerous requests of
residents of Idaho, an examination of
certain reported coal fields in the east
ern part of the state was made last sum
mer by a geologist of the U. 8. geologi-
cal survey, department of the interior,
in order that any coal land present in
this part of the state might be classifi
ed and thus made available for local
mining, so as to relieve the high prices
and threatened scarcity of fuel. This
work has just been completed, and the
results are not at all encouraging so
far as the development of local sup
ply is concerned
The areas examined fall within four
districts: (D The Willow Creek Carl.
bou district, including prospects on Will
low creek, ON John Gray s outlet, and in
the Fall Creek basin; (2) the Pine
Creek district, including the region be-
tween the head of Pine creek on the
northwest and Palisade creek on the
southeast and also Burns canyon; (3)
the Teton basin, including the valleys
of Horseshoe, Mahogany, Patterson, and
Trail creeks; (4) the Continental Divide
district, in T. Ia N, Rs. 3S and 40.
! In the first two of these districts
coaly shale with some impure Goa. is
present in beds ranging in thickness
from an inch to four or five feet. As a
! rule the coaly portions of these beds
are not persistent, but wedge in and
out. Jumps of disable coal may. be OBJ
tanned here and there, but commercial
development is impracticable. !, The
rock formation in which these coal beds
occur is not the one in which the active
mines of western Wyoming are located.
| The only productive part of the Teton
basin is the Horseshoe district. Though
conditions in this district are such that
| large-scale development is impractic
able, work now in progress will probably
make possible a somewhat geater yield
than that of last season. There is little
chance that workable coal beds will be
discovered elsewhere in the basin. Dur
ing the examination of the Teton basin,
several reported indications of oil were
investigated, but these do not indicate
the presence of oil in paying quantities
On the Continental divide in T. II ",
r. 3S f., a 32.ineh bed of good coal was
found, but the area in which it crops
out is not large, and its remoteness from
lines of transportation and suitable
market makes its early exploitation
doubtful.
In the districts examined two sub
stances occur that are commonly mis-
taken for coal, namely, phosphate rock
aud obsidian, "a black volcanic glass.
The phosphate rock in these districts is
unusually black and has acquired a Ger
tain gloss through rock disturbance
that makes its appearance very decep.
tive, as in the Patterson creek, Burns
canyon, and Palisade creek localities,
where the deposits have hitherto been
regarded as occurrences of coal

A telegram has just been received
asking us to make hundreds of bandages
by the 10th of November. American
soldiers are now in the trenches and on
account of so many being wounded
large numbers of bandages are required.
We urge everybody who can to come
to headquarters to do this work, next
week, when an instructor will be here
to take charge.
Small baking powder cans and cocoa
cans, as well as tobacco and wafer
boxes are needed for packing candy,
cake, cookies, etc. bring as early as
possible. l.t ,.. 9.,r t.ts W. 4
Women are urged to give all the fine
possible at Red Cross headquarters
Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this
week, as we have 100 comfort bags TO
make and pack for the Christmas box
to be sent imme diately. Let some OF
your own Yule work wait and feel
that you are doing something this week
to make some brave soldier boy a little
happier at Christmas. Now that our
own boys are on the way to the front
we should feel more interested than
ever.
Headquarters will be open all ady Sat
urday and volunteers are wanted in the
morning to help pack.
A piece of fruit cake is to be put in
each packet and perhaps some one who
can t give the time to work at the rooms
can bake cake. Mrs. Glanville. has
donated cake and we must have
another large one. Anyone wishing to
do this, please notify Mrs. Stockton at
once. Also we want hermits and fruit
cookies. Z.
Clean, tin tobacco boxes and tin
wafer boxes are needed. Persons hav-
ing these, bring them to headquarters
as early in the week as possible.
The ladies' aid society of the Fed
Grated church will give their time Fri
day to Red Cross work.
Claria Baker, school girl, has shown
her patriotism by selling homemade
earning $3.50 with which she took out
a years membership anu made a dona-
ton of Sl.25 to the auxiliary. If every
school child would make an effort to
earn little, it would mean quite an in
crease n our funds.
Mrs. Stone and Claria Baker are new
members during the week.
A donation of IS was received from
Mrs. Viola Standorf.
Mrs. Charles Lee, vice chairman of
Lewiston chapter, will visit us the last

WOODROW WILSON,
How War VIII Be Won,
Ships, wheat and hogs will win the
war, says Herbert Hoover. 'sWars
are won today as much by the organiza.
tion and self sacrifice of the nation as
by the valor of the troops on the firing
line. If every one of America s 100
100000 citizens will eat pound less
wheat flour week America will he
able to ship l33,000,000 bushels of wheat
year to its European allies. If each
one of us will eat one third % an ounce
less butter day, We will DO able 10
ship $4,000 tons of butter wear to
Europe. If each one of US will eat an
ounce less meat a day, it will mean
that we can ship more than 1000 900
steers, hogs and sheep to the soldiers of
our allies and their families. If we will
eat one ounce less sugar day, it will
enable us to ship l,1S5,0O0 tons of sugar
year to our own soldiers and those of
our allies in Europe. BY doing this, we
will help to assure victory. Can we af.
