HUMPHREYS TO CHECK
SPREAD OF INFLUENZA
Dozen or More Cases Develop in
Third Regiment; Surgeon
Gives Men Advice.
CAMP HUMPHREYS, Va, September

CAMP HUMPHREYS, Va, September
20.-A dozen or more cases of Span
ish influenza" having developed in the
Sd Regiment, the $4,000 officers and
soldiers in training here are being en-
listed in the campaign to prevent fur
ther spread of the disease. No cases
are reported in other regiments.
Maj. 1. w. Brewer, camp surgeon.
addressed the 5000 soldiers of the 4th
Regiment on the part the individual
soldier can play in combating respira-
tory diseases, and influenza in partic-
ular. In his talk to the men Maj.
Brewer expressed the opinion that
such cases as have developed are
probably nothing more than the or
binary influenza, but that, as it some
times is followed by pneumonia, the
greatest care should be taken against
its spread.
Capt. Allison r. Williams. son of
Senator John Sharp Williams of Mis-
sissippi, has been relieved of his du-
ties as camp intelligence officer and
provost marshal, and given command
of Il company in sapper regiment.
His new assignment will make it pos

Capt. Williams will be succeeded by
Capt Bernon L. Noodle as camp in

Emerson as provost marshal.
Special Unit for Italians.
With 1000 selectives of Italian de-
scent at this cantonment, many of
whom cannot speak or understand
English, the War Department is con-
sidering the formation of a special
unit in which these men can be drill
ed and instructed.
Most of these soldiers were in
cluded in the recent draft quotas
from New York, Philadelphia and
north Jersey cities. Classes in which
these new arrivals are taught Eng
lish are being organized in each regi-
ment. Present indications are that
it will be found advisable to have
special units for them in order to
centralize work of smoothing out the
difficulties that beset men of foreign
birth or descent when thrust into
army life without previous prepare
ton or training.
Welfare work among the Italian
speaking soldiers at Humphreys is
conducted by Private Salvatore Cudia,
who was for many years prior to en-
tering the service on the editorial
staff of La Folia, an Italian newspap-
err of New York city. under the direc-
ton of Maj. George o. Totten, jr., who
is in charge of general camp welfare &C

Notice to Subscribers

On July !, the cost of newspaper posi-
age will be materially advanced by the
pOstOffice department, adding further
to the increasing cost of producing a
newspaper cost that has been soaring
rapidly during the last two years. AL
most every month sees higher prices for
print paper, which now is almost double
what is was two years ago. All mater
ials and labor have increased in cost.
At the same time the publication and
circulation of war news, of the parti-
cipation of American forces, and of the
cooperation asked of the newspapers by
the government in the promotion of war
activities constitute duty and a priv
lege that every newspaper should be
glad of its opportunity to meet.
On Jan. l, 1918, the Idaho County
Free Press announced an increase of
approximately 20 percent in its adver-
Using rate, and this increased revenue,
in addition to cur growing business, has
enabled us to produce a newspaper
which we believe will compare favor
ably with newspapers printed in any
town the size of Grangeville.
Many weekly newspapers, the sub.
'cription price Of which has been $3.50
A year, have, because of the increased
.osts, been obliged to raise their sub
'cription price to So year. This, we
hould be reluctant to do for in this
'ra of high prices it is our hope to be
bile to at least keep the subscription
rice at the present low figure-$1.5O a
ear, or less than 3 cents copy. It is

SHOWERS HAILED AS GoDSEND

LONG DROUTH
WILL INCREASE WHEAT YIELD
Grain Much Benefited by Downpour,
But Meadows Are Past
Redemption

Rain fell generally over Camas Prai
RE Saturday night and Sunday, and is
declared to have been of incalculable
benefit to growing crops. Coming after
a long spell of dry weather, during
which growth of crops had been notably
stinted, the rain was hailed as a god
send to all parts of the prairie. The
rain that fell Saturday night was light
but steady rain, and it was followed by
much heavier precipitation, in the
nature of intermittent showers, Sunday
afternoon and evening A total of AZ
inch of rain fell in Grangeville, as re-
corded by Henry Telcher, voluntary
weather observer.
Thought it is conceded by farmers that
meadows were, by reason of the drouth,
past redemption by the rain, small grain
was greatly benefited by the downpour,
and a big yield is predicted. Meadows,
however, are short, and well-known
farmer said that the hay crop this year
will be far below normal.
Spring grain is heading, and, aided
by the rains of Saturday night and
Sunday, much greater yield than other
wise would have resulted, will be pro
duced.
Farmers and townspeople alike, who
last week were downhearted because of .
the long drouth, were overjoyed by the
showers. All vegetation was much re-
ireshed, and has taken on new tinge
If green. More rain would be welcom-
ID over the prairie.

our desire to keep the cost of reading
matter as low as possible, but by this
statement, we do not mean that we are
in position to give the Free Press to
any whose name appears on our mail
ing list.
During the last nine months, the sub
scription list has been carefully revised,
and number of delinquent subscrib-
ers have paid the sums they were in
arrears Others, however, have failed
to heed the statements sent them
through the mails, yet they accept the
newspaper from the postoffice, and read
it diligently.
Those subscribers who are prompt il.
payment of their subscription money
have in the past also met the bill of
the man who ever neglected to paw
for his paper. If costs of production
were the same as two years ago. we
possibly could afford to permit this
condition to maintain. But we cannot
do so today unless we raise the subscrip-
ton price to SO a year and that would
be unfair to the man who pays his bills.
1t is unjust to also tax him to paw his
neighbours debts.
The Free Press during the last six
months has gained more than 100 sub
serlbers. We have on our list not more
than 100 who are more than one wear
IN arrears. These we can afford TO
ose.
This class of subscriptions we can no
onger carry. Those who are in arrears
VAL receive the Free Press during the
month OF July, and if they have not
net their obligations by August /
neir names will be stricken from our
mailing list, and the accounts listed FOR

from an 1S00-mile automobile trip.
They went from Grangeville to Spokane,
thence to Montana, where they visited
at their former home, and returned by
way of Dillon, Idaho Falls, Boise. and
New Meadows. The trip was a most
pleasant one, Mr.. Potter declared. He
found crops in Montana suffering con-
from lack of rain. Mr.. Pot
ter said he felt that Camas Prairie was
4 much more desirable agricultural coun-
Try than any section he had visited ON
lis long trip.
