PLAN DIRECTORY
OF IDAHO MINES
WORK OF IMMENSE VALUE TO
IDAHO LAUNCHED BY UNI
VERSLTY MEN

/ Prof. D. c. Livingston, head of the
department of geology, University of
Idaho, has launched a piece of work
that must prove of inestimable value
10 the state. This is the preparation
of a complete directory of all the mi
ming properties in Idaho. In this
work he will be ably assisted by Prof,
E. K. Soper, associate professor of
mining engineering, University of
Idaho
At the last session of the legislature
there was a small appropriation of
$4,000 made for work of this kind.
This would be insufficient even to
make start were it not for the hearty
cooperation of the United States geo
logical survey and the bureau Of mines.
The ultimate object is to make COM
pIete survey of the mineral districts
of the state and let the world know
something of the tremendous possi-
bilities OF Idaho. But with the limit
ed fund on hand it is thought wise to
devote all possible energy at this time
to the preparation of a comprehensive
and complete mining directory
Professor Livingston will concen-
trate his efforts on this work for
time. He left for Boise today and will
put in some time there and in the Boise
basin mining district. Then he pro-
poses to put in some time in Lemhi
and Custer counties.

HOW FRENCH WAR HERO
RESCUES DYING COMRADE
BY HENRY WOOD

! WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES AT
THE FRONT-Captain Garandeau, who
began the present war as a sergeant,
has been awarded the Legion or Honor
for recovering under most excep-
tional circumstances the body of a
French officer killed just in front of
the German trenches.
While French machinegun operators,
hundreds of yards behind the French
lines, executed a barrage fire of pro-
lection over the dead body, Garand-
eau in full daylight and under the eyes
of both the French and the Germans,
crept face downward to the spot, and
attaching the body to his leg with a
rope, successfully dragged it back in
to the French lines.
Under German Fire
The dead officer, Lieutenant Seve by
name, together with his orderly named
Ollmo had been killed during a night
raid on the German trenches. Immed-
lately afterwards another party had
left the French trenches for the pur-
pose of bringing back the two bodies,
but after searching all night in vain,
came back in the morning empty
handed.
During the course of the forenoon,
the French finally succeeded in locat-
ing with strong field glasses the bod
les lying in the tall grass just in front
of a German trench and where any eff
fort to recover them would be in full
view of the enemy:
Bring HIM Back in Daylight
AS it was certain that if the bodies
were left there till night, the Germans
would be able to ambush anyone who
sought to recover them, Captain Gar
andeau, who barely knew the dead Of
ficer personally, volunteered to bring
back the body in full daylight. The
only possible protection that could
be offered him was for the French
machinegun operators to keep the
dead bodies constantly covered with |
a barrage fire so that at least the |
Germans would not be able to creep |
out of their trenches and engage in
and-to-hand fight with the rescuer.
Accompanied by a soldier named
veldier who also volunteered for the

TREATMENT OF ROUP
Exercise Care in Diagnosing All
Suspected Cases.
Drafts, Dampness and Exposure, Are
Conditions That Promote Develop
ment OF Germs-segreqate
All Ailing Fowls.

(By R. II. NEEDHAM, Kansas Sta.ion)
Roup is. germ disease originating
In the poultry flock either through
bringing infected birds in contact with
the others, or by means of bacteria
carried by the wind. The general i'm
preston among almost all poultry
raisers that any affection of the mouth
or breathing organs of a fowl is a
form of roup is incorrect.
Because of the general impression
regarding roup preparations prepared
and manufactured for diseases of the
respiratory organs are classed as roup
remedies. Drafts, dampness and ex-
posture are conditions that promote the
development of roup germs. They are
factors which tend to reduce the vi.
tally and establish inflammatory con
ditions, enabling germs to gain en-
whereas in good health the effects
might be slight and of short duration
due to the prompt resistance offered
by well-fortified system.
To effectively combat this disease
sick fowls must be completely sep
nrated and kept at some distance from
the others. Treatment must be regu
lar and frequent, as often as thres
times daily in severe cases. Mucou.

MORE EGGS FROM POULTRY DURING WINTER

by FRANK C. HARE. Clemson Agri-
cultural Colege)
There are three important reasons
why the farmers of our state do not
obtain more eggs from their poultry
during the winter months: % The
fowls are kept In unsanitary, mite-in-
Tested houses, or roost In the trees ex-
posed to lnclement weather. (2)
There is n great percentage of I'M
profitable fowls in each flock-roost-
ers, old hens, and young chickens of
all ages-so there Is no incentive to
feed the entire flock for winter eggs.
90 The fowls are fed mainly on grain
that will make them fat, and not on
the proper food to make the produc.
tive females lay.
1t Is simple matter to change these
winter without materially increasing
the expense of feeding the fowls.
Sanitary House Needed.-First, re

ditions. If you want to build, cree

Breakfast Coats Made Their Debut.

And now new luster is to be added
to the wardrobe of women, for the
breakfast coat" has made its debut.
The holidays are always preceded by
pretty, gay conceits In breakfast jack
cts and this year the breakfast coat
will present another allurement for
the Christmas shopper. 1t Is an en-
ticing garment made Of light colored
taffeta; a more or less straight coat,
open down the front and reaching al
most to the bottom of the petticoat.
The breakfast coat is an unpreten-
tious but very pretty affair, easy to
make and simply trimmed. Ruffies and
ruchings of silk, like the coat. take
the place of lace for finishing collar
and sleeves. Narrow girdles are also
made of the silk. BY keeping to SIM
plicity In trimming and in design this
new claimant for favor may be made
up In gay colors and still deserve to be
called a coat.
The breakfast coat appears in COM
pany with fascinating new caps and
head-bands that take the place of caps.
Ribbons and laces, little handmade
flowers of chiffon or satin and small,
fancy braids are used for these bands.
Sometimes d wide ribbon, with mar

with bands of the tiniest flowers, is

Charm of Crepes.

There is prediction that crepes of
many sorts win be decidedly fashion
able next year. And for that we are
thankful, says a fashion writer. We
have all learned of the charm of crepes
Of various sorts In the last few sea-
sons, when georgette and other crepe
fabrics have been in such wide vogue.
Perhaps one of the chief charms about
crepe is that it clings and falls In such
soft and attractive folds and lines.
Moreover, 1t is eminently practical, for
il does not show wrinkles.

First, cut two pieces 10 feet long and
