OBLIGATION OF CITIZENSHIP.

In the Youths Companion of Feb
rrary LIST, we read an article writ
ten by Senator William e. Borah,
on the rights of citizenship. In part
he has this to say:
mot the least among the evils
OF the great war. so far as our own
country is concerned, is the fact
that it has diverted attention from
our domestic affairs. 1t has virtually
excluded from the press and from
the public mind the consideration of
all questions other than those that
concern the gigantic conflict. We
can hope. however, that, after this
world crisis is ended and after we
have made start in bringing order
out of chaos, we shall turn our at
tention to our vital and immine mt
home questions.
We cannot begin too soon to con-
slider them, and we shall have to
deal with them in thorough fashion.
We must examine original principl 8
and give some attention to the thinge
thats we have too long taken for
ranted While striving after new
sthings we need to turn back and
consider home of the old and simple
principle 81 good government.

FEES FOR GRAZING ON NATION.
AL FORESTS DURING 1917 IN
CREASED rs PER CENT

The District Forester ammo need
today that the Secretary of Agrlcul-
ture has decided definitely to in
crease the fees for grazing live
stock upon the National For, s s OF
the Inter-mountain District during
1917 rlat 25 per cent.
1t was the original plan to in
crease the fees for this use of the
Forests SO 1-3 per cent each year
for the next three years, thus doub'
ling the present fees at the end OF
the third year, In announcing the
Secretary's decision in the matter
it is further stated that in reas in
following years will be based upon
a further study Of conditions.
Receipts from grazing of live
stock within the Inter-mountain Dis
.trict for the season Of 1916 amount
ed to approximately $362,H00 Wi b
a 25 per cent increase, thy will
reach total of at least $3.50, 600 dur
ing 1917. Thirty7five per cent of all
receipts from the sale and use oil
National Forest resources are now
returned to the States and Countie g
in which the Forests are located fol
road and school purposes, so that
the increase in grazing fees also
means a 25 per cent increase in
these returns to States and Coun,
ties.

HOW TO COOK A HUSBAND.

I am a steady reader of the Home
stead, especially of the Home De-
pai tment, and like 1t very much. We
have read a great deal about the
model husbands, SO l thought II
would be nice to give a recipe for
cooking husbands A Baltimore lady
has written a recipe for cooking
husbands so as to make them nice
and tender" 1t is as follows: "A
good many husbands are utterly
spoiled by management. Some wo-
men go about it as if their husbands
were bladders, and blow them up.
Others keep them constantly in hot
water; others freeze them by care
lessness and indifference. Some keep
them in a stew by irritating ways
and words. Others roast them. Some
keep them in pickle all their lives
1t cannot be supposed that any hus-
band will be tender and good man
aged in this way, but they are real
ly delicious when properly treated.
In selecting your husband you should
not be guided by their silvery ap-
pearance as in buying mackerel, nor
by the golden tint, as il you want
ed salmon Be sure to select him
yourself as tastes differ. Do not go
to market for him as the best are
always brought to your door. 1t is
far better to have none, unless you
will patiently learn how to cook
him. A preserving kettle Of the
finest porcelain is best, but if you
have nothing but an earthenware pip
kin, it will do, with care. See that
the linen in which you wrap him is
nicely washed and mended, with
the required number of buttons and
strings sewed on. Tie him in the
kettle by strong silk cord called
comfort, as the one called duty is
apt to be weak. They are apt to fly
out Of the kettle and be burn ed and
crusty on the edges, since, like crabs
and Holsters, you have to cook them
while alive. Make clear, steady
fire out Of love, cheerfulness neat
ness. Set him as near this an seems
. agree with him. II he sputt ers and
fixes, do not be anxious: sol ne hus-
bands do this till they are. quite
dome. Add little sugar IN "a tonn

consideration is the Indifference In
these days OF so large a part of
our well-to-do and responsible peo-
pie to the primary duties and OBJ
legations of citizenship. Men who are
among the b st qualified by train
ing and exp; ience and who have the
most time to give to public ques-
tions and to selecting fit candidates
for public Csfice have got into the
habit of passing over such matters
with perfunctory attention. Some
even entirely disregard their duty In
that respect
THE GREAT STAY-AT-HOME VOTE
Many of us seem no longer to
appreciate the right of "a citizen to
assist in selecting those agents up
on whose conduct depends the vel
fare of the state and of the nation.
The power to spend the public funds
to regulate the amount of taxes, to
form our national policies. is in the
hands of those to the selection of
whom thousands-and the number in
creases each year-give no thought
whatever
"In one state alone, in a recent
presidential election, after most
thorough and somewhat exciting can
vass, more than a hundred thousand
voters remained away from the polls.
So utterly lacking were they in
sense of duty, and in the inspiration
that should come to all who witness
the choosing of chief magistrate
for a hundred millions of people, that
they failed to record their views OF
preferences as to who he should be.
If they were unable to make a
choice, it was a sad comment on
their intellect; and if, having a
choice, they were too much engross-
ed with purely personal affairs to
record it, it was a conclusive verdict
on the quality of their citizenship.
''In fact our most important cleo
tons are often decided by the stay
at-home vote. The course of the
government, it's policies, our entire
administration of public affairs, turn
in effect upon the indifference of
the citizen. The evils that flow from
his neglect of those primary duties
may be said to be the beginning of
all those evils that seem ever to ac-
company free government. If the
people were as vigilant about choos
ing their public servants as they
are about choosing their corporate
or their trusted employees,
it would be virtually impossible for
or graft" or the
many evils of "bossism" to exist
under our form of government.
st is time that the responsibility
for bad men in office, for "invisi-
BILE government" for venal and cor
rupt practices in public servants, be
put upon those whose neglect of
duty enables evil influences to con-
troll the election The better element
is always in the majority in every
and can always control
the situation if it desires to do so.
When things get unexpectedly bad
and the people are thoroughly arous-
ed. how quickly are desirable chan
ges brought about. But when the
people seem to have disposed of the
particular condition that thus arouses
them, they fall back into state Of
indifference and let the sinister in
fluences have the field again"

THE POTATO INDUSTRY.

This is an industry of vital i'm
portance to this community, and has
been grossly neglected with the ex-
ception of a few growers. We have
paid but little attention to the Sc
lecting of seed, variety and kind of
ground on which to plant the re-
suit of which has been disastrous.
The farmer who will stick to the
growing of potatoes, and give 1t his
attention, will average more net
profit to the acre than any other
crop. 1t is a product that is one Of
the most staple and not hard to
grow, if the proper attention is Civ
en-, and 1t is our opinion that under
the present conditions it will be
hard to procure seed here at hNme
that would be safe to plant, we
should import seed into this coun 'ry
from some other section where the
growers have given the srlecting of
aeed their attention, and wh're the
potatoes have no disease. Potato S
should be planted on ground that
has not been planted to potatoes
for several years, and better If never
in potatoes before. There is no
ground better for potatots than al
falfa or clover land that has been
plowed up for one year. The ground
should be plowed very deep and
with plenty of moisture, at the
time of blowing, and immedist :
ly after blowing should be well har-
rowed and floated in order to hold
the moisture and to insure an even
depth of planting. The seed should
be planted fairly deep, but not to
the depth of blowing. This will give
fresh dirt for the roots to feed on.
1t is a good plan to disk the ground
before blowing. This will prevent
large chunks of dirt at the bottom
where the harrow can not reach to
pu'verize. 1t is very essential to have
the ground fairly moist at time of
planting to insure a good stand. Ii
the soil is dry at time of planting,
the moisture is absorbed from the
seed, and in many cases will never
come up, or vitality weakened The
ground should be frequently har-
rowed after planting, and even after
the potatoes are up. This will des-
troy the young weeds and hold the
moisture. If the moisture can be re-
tanned in the soil until the plants
are large enough to hill it is all
the better. Cultivating frequently be-
fore the blossom starts and less
irrigation Is good rule to go by,
and when irrigation is begun, the
ground should be kept moist until
the potatoes are of proper size.
Selecting the seed is very i'm
portant part of the business. The
best way to select the seed is to
go through the patch before digging
and select from the most vigorous
hills. Nothing but the typi al shape
and medn1pn size should be selected.
We understand that A. E. Wood
has an option on some very fine
Burbank and Melted Gem, both good
varieties, II he can get enough or
ders to fill car. 1t would be well
for those who anticipate shipping in
their seed to see him as soon as
possible.

DO NOT GET SORE ON YOUR JOB

DO NOT GET SORE ON YOUR JOB
We have heard young men say they
were "sore on their job. and guess
ed it was about time to quit. Well,
maybe it is, but the young man or
woman who quits a job just be-
cause the job gets little disagree
able, will not accomplish much in
this world. Jobs are not picked up
every day and are not always just
as pleasant as you would like to
have them, but the worker who
ST cks to his job and keeps his eye
on the ultimate results, will be the
one to reach the top round of the
ladder some day Too many young
men get dissatisfied because they
are not making as enuch money as
they would like to have in order to
keep pace with the world. The job
at the bottom round of the ladder
small The man above you may be
getting big pay, and in your esti-
nation doing but little to earn his
money. but it should not be forgot
ten that he was one young man who
stuck to his job and worked his way
up.
Vice President and general man
ager of the Oregon Short Line rail
road, Howard V. Plat, in a recent
article, said he began his railroad
career as brakeman many years ago.
Would he be holding his lucrative
position today if he had got sore on
his job and quit the first time he
was called upon to climb a box
car in the dark, or rustic freight in
the rain? He was another young man
who stuck to his job and worked his
way up as all railroad men of high
positions have done.
The men of high positions in any
vocation of life have attained their
high positions by sticking to their
job and working to the best interest
or their employer.
The young man should not only
look to the wage he is earning It
may be the experience and educa-
ton he is getting out Of his job is
worth more than his salery. Many
young man with ambition and
ability to look ahead, has worked
for months without any wage, just
to gain the experience in some line
of business or profession which he
had chosen to follow, and by stick
ing to his job has attained high
and honorable position No matter
what your job is, stick to it.
The old saying, "a rolling stone
will gather no moss" will apply to
the young man who is roaming from
place to place, and from one job to
another. Even though you have no
opportunity for promotion, ii is the
steady wage Garner that has the
bank account. Besides temptation for
evil is greater with the young man
who is idle than it is with the one
that is employed
We wonder if there ever was
farmer with head so thick that he
never got sore on his job We
never saw one Many of them take
periodic fits of wanting to go to
town and run a store, or wanting
a desk job, an easy life, but some
stay by the old farm and stick TO
their blowing, and the world is al
ways better for such men.
Get sore on your job once in a
while. 1t will do you good. But
don't say much about it, for you
Will get over it, and be sorry if
you had to leave that very job, and
always remember, it is the steady
job that counts, and the steady
young man that wins in this world.
