TO SAVE IDAHO PINE.
TASK OF GOVERNMENT.
RUST THREATENS TO DESTROY
MAGNIFICENT FoREST-PLA.
CUE FROM GERMANY.

Activity in a campaign to save wes-
tern white pine forests valued at half
Il billion dollars from the scourge of
white pine blister rust. will be COM
menced in Idaho Immediately. This
announcement was made Saturday
night by DR. James r. Weir, forest
pathologist of the United States bu-
reau of plant industry, who Is pay ing
Boise brief visit, says the States
man.
Congress has recently made an APP
preparation of 100000 to fight this
blister rust" said DR.. Weir. 1.-The
disease Is of the fungus type and is an
| importation from Germany 1t at
lacks all five of the needle or white
pines, and so extensive have been its
ravages in Europe, in certain Cana
dian provinces and in New England,
that the planting of white pine has
become impracticable in the districts
affected.
Spread of Disease.
CAS- far as we now know, the dis
ease has not travelled farther west
than Minnesota. but 1t has been dem
onstrated that the sugar pine of Cali
fornia ana the valuable white pine of
Idaho are susceptible. ana a wide,
spread, thorough survey of the ma
tons forests Is being made this year.
Picked men are being stationed in ev-
cry state in the union, whose duties
will consist in esarching out all plant
ings of eastern or European white
pine nursery stock and inspecting
gooseberry and currant patches in or
der to discover whether. or not the
disease is spreading.
IF evidences Of it are found, vigor-
Gus methods of control will be COM
menced at once in the locality infect
ed, and no effort will be spared until
the seourge is stamped out
"The disease is Of that group of
fungus parasites which require more
than one plant species for the COM
pletion of their life histories In one
stage it is found on the pine, produc-
ing serious cankers and soon girdling
and killing the younger trees, The
disease passes from the pine to the
bushes, where another reproductive
body comes into being, which in turn
reinfects the pine The disease cannot
go from tree to tree, but must pass
back to the pine by the medium of its
alternate host"
Work Of Missoula Station.
l.. M. Benbow, a student in the
school Of forestry at Washington State
college, has been appointed field as
sstant in the Idaho work. His head
quarters will be In Boise and his ter
ritory will embrace that part of the
state lying south of the Salmon river.
Three government laboratories have
been established in the west for the
purpose of conducting research along
the line of forest tree diseases. DR..
Weir has charge of the laboratory at
Missoula, Mont which ministers to
the needs of the Pacific northwest and
states.
DR., Weir accompanied Mr. Benbow |
Friday and Saturday on trip to Ida
no City, made for the purpose of in |
speeding white pine planting. He |
will leave today for Wyoming, where /

Liberty Loan
FACT
How the Liberty
Loan Must Be
Subscribed--Make
1t Successful.

} The Liberty Loan OF two bill
Z lion dollars will be fully sub
, scribed.
, But its success will not be de-
& pendent on its being fully sub
, scribed.
Z 1t win be successful only if 1t
is substantially over subscrib-
q ed and the money comes from
the right sources.
: What are the right sources?
The best source Is the idle
4 money now kept in safe deposit
boxes and at home. At the
same time, the person who has
money in his safe deposit box
can UNNECESSARILY better his po-
} sition by buying these govern
ment bonds.
He will receive at least 81
per cent on his mohey, which is
not earning anything now for
him. He will lose nothing in
security.
The next best source is cur
! rent savings. This applies to
! the rich and to the poor. 1t Is
just as necessary for you with
an income of $4,000 year to
subscribe for your share of the
Liberty Bonds as for John d.
Rockefeller with supposed in
come of 30 million dollars a
year to take his proportion of
the bonds out of his current
savings.
When you buy Liberty Bond
you are saving part of your
income exactly as if you depos-
} tied the money in, savings /,
bank. You are helping your
country, too.
If you have savings account
in the bank, you can transfer a
part of 1t at least into Liberty
Bonds. The bank will not suf- }
fer. Their deposits can not fail 4
to grow as increased industrial
activity results in greater saw
ings of employees.

The Cow got up rather slowly. Then
she stepped on the foot, which already

she found her foot was all, all well.
Come along" harEed ROwdy. And
the Cow run as fast a. her great, big

The Farmer followed along, saying :
