FOX DESCRIBES
 TUNNEL BENEATH ENGLISH CHANNEL
British Geographer Predicts
 Trains Every Five Min utes for Paris

London, May 14.-Departure of a train from London to Paris every five or ten minutes, travel between the two capitals by rail to occupy less than six hours, was the possibility held out by Sir Francis Fox in an ad- dress recently delivered before the Royal Geographical society. Sir Fran cis was describing the conditions un- der which 1t was proposed to build and operate a tunnel under the Eng hsh channel to connect England and France.
 Looking into the future, he declared that the trains operated through the tunnel could be used to traverse France, Belgium. Holland, Spain, Italy, Germany. Austria, Hungary, and Turkey as far as Constantinople. It was by no means improbable, said lively few years, travellers from Lon don would be able to reach distant places like India. and China through the medium of the Channel tunnel.
 The tunnel would consist of two tubes IS feet in diameter. In the Channel above the sea bed the maxi mum depth of water would be from 16O feet to 1S0 feet. It would be nec- essary, he said, to leave undisturbed such a cover of chalk over the roof oi the tunnel as would guard against any possible hostile contingency. That protection had been fixed at a mini mum of 100 feet. The tunnel would be operated, pumped and ventilated by electricity supplied from a power sta ton in Kent ten miles inland.
 The tunnel would have a dip in the level of the rails, forming a water lock by which 1t could, in case of emer- gency, be filled with water from roof to floor for one mile. This would be under control of Dover Castle and the entrance and exits would be under gunfre Of the Dover forts.

EATING CORN

The report of condition of the win ter wheat crop is depressing, and there is sure to be a shortage, even if the spring wheat returns are good. But no disaster is necessary. Every acre can still be replanted to corn. Tn the end it may hs an economic benefit. in spreading inc corn using habit more widely.
 For some unexplained reasons the peoples of Europe have always had prejudice against corn. While less than half of the worlds wheat Is produced in the United States. our Country grows practically all the cprn. Yet the experiment stations say that animals fed on corn alone thrive better than those fed on any one grain. It has all the clements of nutriment.
 In. the old days fine whitel wheat flour was considered the only dainty luxury worthy of gentleman's ta- ble. Of late years the preference for whole wheat bread has been grow ing. It does not look quite so pleas ing to the eye as fine wheat bread. But 1t Is valued for superior nutrt- ton and richer taste of the grain.
 Many bakers find that they are constantly underestimating the de- mand for the whole wheat product. All they make seems to go as by magic, while the white bread is taken as a second choice. Similarly corn looks to the, eye like a coarser food. But the people will learn to like 1t just as they learn to like the whole wheat flour that is now so popular.
 The South has always known its virtues, with corn bread and cake made in the most luscious forms Nasty pudding was the cherished dish In a great many old time families. A big corn crop this year will feed the hogs. will make poultry raising prac- tical. and will be a long step toward winning the war.

CHECKING HOG ClaONiERA

SPRINGFIELD.-M GrOnlnger,
the county agent, in company with
government man of Idaho Falls,
was down again the first of the week
looking into the hog cholera epidem-
ic at the feed yards of w. r. Leach.
They found a number of dead hogs
and placed strict quarantine on
all the hogs. The state veterinarian
arrived the next day and took the
matter in hand. He ordered a num-
Der of sick ones killed, very thoro
cleaning up, spraying and disinfect-
ing, and ordered that they should
be kept away from the creek. A
number of people who have to drink
the water from the creek had re-
ported that the hogs had free access
to the water, and that number of
dead hogs were in the creek, which
proved to be the case. The state
veterinarian also found that other
stock was afflicted with the same dis
ease from drinking the water below
them. One rancher has lost several
young calves from it. No other cases
of hog cholera were found in the
vicinity and it is hoped that the dis
ease can be checked.

GIRL SAVED MOTHERS LIFE
Farmers Wife Escapes Being Gored
to Death by Angry Bull Through
Heroism of Daughter.

Selins Grove, Pa.--The bravery Of
her fifteen-year-old daughter, Anna,
saved Mrs. Benjamin Hummel from
being gored to death by an angry bull
at her home at Mount Pleasant Mills.
The mother was attacked by the en-
ragged animal as she entered the barn
yard and was stunned.
The bull then sank one of his horns
into one leg Of the helpless woman
and was rolling her body. when the
daughter leaped into the fray and
grabbed the bull by the head. He at
tempted to throw her away, and in do
ing so released the PROSTATE mother.
The daughter held fast to his neck
as the bull cantered about, attempting
to throw her in the air.
The father, in a nearby field, heard
the frantic cries for help, and dealt
the bull a stunning blow with piece
of timber and rescued the mother and
daughter. .F#

A HYMN OF FREEDOM.

Glory to thee. Almighty God. thy light
Hath rent the storm cloud. ana we see
The peoples battling far or through the
night,
And hear their clamor to be free
30 we whose fathers on our Sinai broke
The sordid gods with feet Of clay,
Now grit in steel, our fathers souls I'm
woke,
And join our brothers in the fray.
March, march, Freedoms sons,
To the roar and rattle Of the guns!
Freedom, freedom to the fore
Gods world around forevermore!
'Gainst human right In dark array they've
stood,
The lords Of pride. the hosts of wrong,
Taking for toll the peoples bread and
blood,
And waxed in scorn as they grew strong.
The nations at the nations threats they've
set sr.t#
And fixed mems eyes on greed and gain.
They've raised red hands in slaughter
newly wet
disappearing Christ with voice of Cain.
March, march, Freedoms sons,
To. the roar and rattle of the guns!
Freedom, freedom to the fore
Gods world round forevermore!
But we who've heard Gods message on
the blast,
Proclaim the hour of vengeance here.
The peoples night shall win at dawn at
last,
And joy supplant the peoples fear.
O pillar'd flame that burned fore Israels
band
Your light be ours; your fire our foes.
O sword Of Gideon at the Lords COM
mand
Shine till they fall beneath our blows!
March, march, Freedoms sons,
To the roar and rattle of the guns!
Freedom, freedom to the fore
Gods world around forevermore!
Ger us the hopes of human hearts shall
wing
The loves, the longing and the trust
To make a world where God alone Is king
And Belials minions in the dust.
With cymbals, harp and flute wen greet
the morn,
And ring mad bells from ev'ry tow'r,
When pole to pole mans freedom is re-
born
Gods springtime bursting into flow'r.

To the roar and rattle of the guns!
Freedom, freedom to the fore
Gods world around foreveFmore!

DRY FARM CAMPAING
AGAINST THE SQUIRREL

R. r. Groninger, county agricul-
tural agent, promises to lead sum-
|mer offensive against the squirrel
pest that is causing dry farmers in
Bingham county some unrest. Meet
ings will soon be called at which
the efforts of whole neighborhoods
will be united for successful cam
paign. The following is Mr.. Gron-
inger's recipe for poisoning ground
Squirrels:
Direction for Poisoning Ground
Squirrels (Richardson Ground
Squirrels)
Mix one tablespoonful of gloss
starch in one-half teacup of cold
water. and stir into one-half pint of
boiling water to make thin, clear
paste. Mix one ounce of powdered
|strychnine (alkaloid) with one ounce
of baking soda (bicarbonate), and
stir with the starch to a smooth,
Icreamy mass free of Jumps. Stir in
Ione-fourth pint of heavy corn strip
and one tablespoonful of glycerine,
and finally one scant teaspoonful of
saccharine. Apply to Is quarts of
oats and mix thoroly to coat each
kernel. -.s.
Each quart of poisoned grain is
sufficient for 40 to so bats. This
quantity, scattered Il teaspoonful to
a place) along squirrel trails, or on
clean, hard surfaces near the holes
will not endanger stock.

market will not justify them In pay,
ing, they will be driven to the neces-
sity of shipping their beef and NUT
ton and taking their sheep to winter
ranges. All producers know we'll
what such an action would mean to
our state.
We feel to caution you against ex-
cessive prices as well as to tell you
the minimum. price you should re-
ceive now for your hay; and we de-
sire to call your attention to the
necessity of conserving all kinds of
food that will sustain life in animals,
making preparation to take good
care Of all your straws and root
crops, that they may be utilized this
coming winter. 1t is quite evident
that they will be in great demand.
Alfalfa Attacked
On my recent trip thru the south
and southeastern part of the state,
/ found a condition existing in alfal-
ia fields of several sections that was
new to me. ] noticed that many
spots-some large and others smaller
in the alfalfa were turning yell
lowish green, with small numerous
spots on the leaves, extending the
length of the stocks.
On returning to Boise, / took the
matter up with the university extern
sion department, and found that
their attention had already been call
ed to the matter, and they were earn
estly giving 1t consideration.
Ctofa opd faIoro1 nvnouA. la-o
amined the alfalfa, and SO far as
know, have all pronounced it to II
what is known as White Leaf Spot!M
a trouble quite new in the west, vet
more common east of the Rocky
mountains. We have failed to find
any one yet who claims to know the
actual cause or remedy for it. This
disease Is quite distinct from the
"Downey Mildew," and should not
be confused with it.
have recently received samples
of alfalfa affected by the white
Leaf Spot" with reports that it
spreads rapidly in some fields. Those
who have made study of alfalfa
and it's diseases, seem to think there
is no occasion for alarm. and recon-
mend the thoro renovating, or later
blowing up of fields so infected, but
we would suggest that where this
trouble exists, the alfalfa be left this
season, and that the crop be cut as
soon as possible after it's spread is
noticed, and then, that the field he
deeply and thoroly renovated.
Our investigation SO far. has
shown that this trouble is confined
to the older alfalfa fields, and the
younger stands do not seem to be
affected.
May we ask that you keep close
watch of your crop, and report to us
the results Of your study of this
trouble IL it appears in your fields?
HARVEY ALFRED.
