The new board composed of the Sec
Rotary of state, state treasurer. farm
market director, State Horticultural
Inspector Guy Graham and State Vet
erinarian Bodle made 1t plain that in
so-far as 1t is concerned the two big
Idaho shows are to be brought into as
much prominence as 1t is within the
power of the board to promote their
interests. The state fair will for the
time being be officially known as the
Gem State fair.
ASSISTANT SECRETARIES.
The matter of organizing the board
so that the 1917 plans for the livestock
show and state fair could go in
to effect was discussed at length
with the directors and stockhold-
ers Of the Gem state fair Of Boise
and the Ada county commissioners
President Dougherty stated that the
Lewiston authorities had notified him
that Paul Clagstone would be retained
at their expense as secretary of the
show. The board of directors OF the

DECISION IN favor
OF BANK RECEIVER
AFFIRMED BY COURT

The supreme court affirmed the
judgment for the defendant given in
| the Third judicial district court,
Judge Charles p. Mccarthy presiding,
in q decision handed down late yester-
day in the case of Ben Q. Pettengill,
as special deputy bank commissioner
of the state of Idaho. and as receiver
in the matter of winding up the af-
fairs of the Boise State bank, versus
William H. Blackman, Herbert +.
Lemp, Edward Payne as trustees and
Edward Payne. Chief Justice Bulge
wrote the decision. In separate opin-
ions Justice Morgan and Justice Rice
concur.
The litigation arose over the action
of Pettengill as receiver of the bank,
against Blackman and Payne for the
purpose of quieting title to lots Nos.
| !, 2, 3, 4 and of block No. 10, River
| side addition to Boise. Herbert f.
Lemp was also made a party defend
ant but the case was dismissed as to
| him.
The case came before the supreme
court on appeal by the plaintiff from
an adverse judgment entered by the
district court. 1t was set forth in the
complaint that the defendants claimed
an interest or-estate in the lots ad-
| verse to the Boise State bank, which
/ Pettengill held without grounds, claim
ing the bank to be owner of the lots.
AGREEMENT CLAIMED.
As an affirmative defense and in
answer to the claims of the bank made
through the receiver, it was set forth
that BIackman was the holder of a
certificate of deposit of the bank; that
| on or about Nov. 3, 1911, he informed
the bank he desired to cash the certi-
ficate; that the bank entered into an
agreement with him that II he did not
cash the certificate or insist on i'm
mediate payment and would consent to
extending the time on it to May /,
1918, the certificate could bear inter-
est at the rate of s per cent and the
bank would. cause the debt to be Sc
cured by mortgage upon the lots in
1 controversy. Payne gave Blackman,
/ 1t In recited, his proniissory note for
! sI4,iA4.l4 and at the same time exc
| cuted and delivered to him a mort
| gage on the lots. Blackman claimed
that neither the note nor the debt has
been paid.
i TITLE IN THE BANK.
4 The trial court" recites the supreme
| court decision, found that the legal
1 title OF the property in question was in
i the bank. This IL clearly wrong but
IL probably an oversight. inasmuch as
the point does not seem to have been
regarded las mateEial by either appel

25 UNDER 10 YEARS
IN THE CIVIL WAR

1t has been stated recently that
an attempt would be made to place
the draft age two years lower, from
IL to 10 years, thus enabling to take
men to the colors who have reached
10 years of age. This seems young
to many people when keeping young
seems to be the main purpose but
the record of the Civil War shows
that 1t is not
The Civil War was especially a
young mans war. Beginning with
the youngest recorded in the adju-
tant generals office, there were 25
Union soldiers 10 years of age and
under, 3S eleven and under, 225
twelve and under, 800 thirteen, l.
523 Ga regiment and a half four
teen and under. and 104.987 Gan
army division) fifteen and under
The numbers jump when we reach
sixteen, for there were 231,051 boys
of that age and younger. Those un-
der seventeen are nearly a million in
number, or nearly twice the number
of those called for in the first draft

THE RAT AND THE MOUSE

Keep after the rat and his little
cousin the mouse" Is the reiterated
advice of the Department of Agricul-
ture at Washington. The Department
is almost seeing red over the rat and
mouse question, and with reason, be-
cause its biological and statistical
sharps have figured 1t up and find
that the pests are the most expensive
luxuries the country supports. Says
the Department:
From their home among filth.
they visit dwellings and store rooms
to polute and destroy human food.
"The rat carries bubonic plague
and many other diseases fatal to man
and has no doubt been responsible
for more untimely deaths among hui
man beings than all the wars in his
tory.
"In the United States rats and
mice destroy each year In homes, In
factories, stores and ware houses, in
cars and in ships, crops. poultry and
other property valued at more thin
$500. 900, 000-an amount equivalent
to the gross earnings Of an army of
200, 900 men.
"Grain eaten and wasted on many
farms by rats and mice would pay
all the farmers taxes.
"Rats and mice breed from 6 to
10 times a year, producing their de-
structive kind at an alarming rate
"They are parasites without a sin
gle redeeming characteristic.
Get after them, poison them trap
them. organize systematic hunts. gel
them any way you please-but get
them-urges the Department.
