MEETINGS FOR
THE FARMERS

The United States government,
knowing the necessity of having the
farmers well organized and working
under uniform system whereby the
proper informal can be gathered
or distributed and thus putting the
farmers in closer touch with the
national food situation, and at the
same time opening the way for the
farmer to get better results from the
work of the department of agricul-
ture and the State Agricultural Col
lege, has requested that the state
county agent leader organize farm
bureau and have a county agent
placed in every county of the state.
At the present time 81 counties of
Idaho which is 67 per cent, have
organized and the work of organizing
is still under way. R. A. McCurry
of the extension department of the
University of Idaho has been placed
in Boundary county to assist the
farmers in organizing the farm bur-
eau. The County Council of Defense
appointed an organization committee
composed of A. D. WEIGH, Thos. j.
Jones, o. H. Campbell, A. V. Hem
ming and Martin Peterson. This
committee has appointed a committee
for each community in the county.
Mr.. McCully desires that every farm
er has a thorough knowledge of the
work of the farm bureau and the
county agent. That the farmers ma
become acquainted with this move
ment a public meeting will be held
in each community. The dates for
the community meetings and the
committees in charge are as follows:
Meadow Creek, March 9th, Com
mittee: John Davidson, G. w. .Felch,

AT
MEADOW CREEK

j. f. Archer, general manager of
the Meadow Creek Lumber Company,
which operates a sawmill and lum-
bering camps at Meadow Creek, was
killed Thursday morning about ten
o'clock, when he was struck by a
sleigh loaded with logs which were
being brought from one of the COM
pany camps to the sawmill.
The accident occurred about half
way between the mill and the log
ging camp. At this point there is
curve in the road and it is so
steep that when the road is very icy
it is necessary to sand it. Archer
was riding horseback. He saw the
load of logs approaching at a good
rate of speed and attemnted to drive
his horse to one side of the road.
Then Archer attempted to dismount
and in doing so his foot seemed
to catch in the stirrup and he was
thrown in front of one of the run
ners of the log laden sleigh and was
caught in such manner that his
body was bent double and his neck
broken. A man by the name of
Pete johnson drove the logging team
and stopped the horses before the
hind runners passed over Archer's
body. Forest Ranger Glenn had just
passed around the bend of the road
when the accident happened and was
called back by Johnson. When they
reached Archer there was no signs
of life.
The body was taken to Spokane
the same afternoon where the fu-
neral services were held Saturday
afternoon from Turnbull's undertake
ing parlors.
The deceased has been in charge
of the sawmill at Meadow Greek
for the past five years. Prior to
taking charge he had made his home
in Spokane for IA years and was
prominent in the building and con-
tracing business.
He is survived by his widow, a
son, Arville; a brother, F. d. Archer
of Chicago, ILL.,, and three sisters
Mrs. E .Lumbeck of Seattle, and
Mrs. A. Hope and Mrs. S. Stokes
of Denver. He was a member OF
the Mt. Carlton lodge and the Unique
encampment of the l. o. o. F. OF
Spokane. Mrs Archer and the sor
lived at Meadow Creek with the de.
ceased.
Archer was wellknown here anC
was respected as a square-dealing
Woodworking and capable bushes:
man. In his death Meadow Creel
has lost a man who did a great dea
towards making it a lively business
district and developing its resources
The many friends and acquaintan
ces of the deceased in this city ant
Meadow Creek join in extending thei
sympathy to the bereaved family.

hard surfaced roads, Boundary
county's chance for a state highway
is mighty slim. The same proportion
of the state money for making perma-
ment roads and keeping them in re-
pair should be spent in this county
as in other counties of the state and
if this is not to be done the people
of this county had better get ready
to put up such a protest that the
politicians of the capital city and
the highway commission will set up
and take notice.
If Boundary county must spend
an additional S36,400 for the hard
surfacing of a road for which the
state engineers estimate was
$4,000, in order to get an appro-
priation of $4,000 from the state,
it had better forget the good roads
project until after the war, and if it
is legally possible, invest the
$4,000 road money in government
bonds.

decreed otherwise.
at is therefore incumbent upon
me to call upon all citizens of this
state, both consumers and dealers,
to comply with both the letter and
spirit of the law and that with every
purchase of wheat flour there be
a purchase of equal amount of sub
stitutes, and that no attempts be
made to purchase flour otherwise.
In addition l appeal again to all our
citizens that they confine their con-
sumption of wheat flour to the alb
solute minimum of their require
ments.

win Hold Chautauoua Here

Mrs. Bryce Smith, representative
of the Ellison-White Chautauqua sys-
TEN, was in the city several days
last week and returned here again
Sunday to interest local people in
guaranteeing the expenses of holding
a six day chautauqua here this sum-
mer. The chautauqua may be brought
here if 20 local people sign the guar
antee and yesterday Mrs. Smith had
had some 38 signatures to the con-
tract. The first chautauqua, two
years ago, was not a financial sue
cess and on this account a good
many local people are dubious about
tr. ing to finance it again this year
when there are and will be so many
people for patriotic purposes.

Mr.. Editor, l am amazed beyond
measure and chagl ined beyond
polite expression at the gross par
tisan appeal that has just been
made by the President in behalf of
the Democratic candidates for
Congress ait the coming election.
If the Republicans i'm Congress
had conspicuously failed in their
loyalty to the head of the govern
ment, and the Democrats of the
body had as conspicuously stood
by the President, there might be
some excuse for such an appeal;
but when we think of such men as
Kitchen, Kent, Vardaman, Champ
Clark, Gum Shoe Bill'' Stone and
dozen others, equally fragrant
Democratic offenders, and when
we recall a long list of Republi-
cans who have upheld the hands of
7 the President at critical periods in
the past eighteen months, we WON
der if there was any motive, aside
from rank partnership, that
prompted the President to such an
appeal.
If the President had appealed in
behalf of all candidates for Con-
gress who had been of assistance
to him in the present war crisis,
without respect to party, we could
understand his anxiety for support
and applaud it, but this appeal for
Democrats, loyal and unloyal,
without distinction, makes us sick
at heart. 1t has done the President
tremendous damage in the popular
esteem.

CITIZENS DUTY

AS a Republican, as a Delawar-
can, as an American citizen, we
seriously reserve the accusation by
Democrats that patriotism, effec-
tive service in time of war, and
reconstl uction in the coming days
of peace, is confined to one party.
All history, whether in the annals
of war or the records Of peace,
give stern contradiction. This is
not a matter of opinion; it is reg
istered in facts. The Republican
party, by birth, is war party. It's
career and record proves it's sue
cess. BY it's policy, its record, and
experience, it is certainly a pros
perity party in times of peace. The
full dinner pail' is not only a
slogan of the party; it is an il
lustration of its success and the
success of our institutions.
With a realization of these ter
rible times of stress and strain no
more serious duty has come to our
citizenship than through the cleo
tion of next week, in seeing to it
very definitely that this is no
Democratic war, but an American
war. In such an American war
Republicans have given time,
thought, money, sons, and daugh-
tiers. They have made the sacrifice
supreme, and have earned, in
herited, and hold the right to
share in its conduct; to share in
the discussion of the problems of
peace.

Iowa Farmers Catching On

Postville, Iowa, May O. Many loyal
farmers in Iowa joined the National
Nonpartisan league because they
thought it was formed to do real SER
vice to the farming industry. Many Of
these, loyal men have since made an
investigation Of the league and Of the
character of men who are at the head
Of it, says the Greater Iowa associa-
ton, and in many cases are with
drawing from the organization.
A typical case is the following letter
sent last week by nine prominent far
mers Of German extraction Of Han
cock county: "
Headquarters National Nonpartisan
League, st. Paul, MINI. Attention A.
c.. Townley, President. We hereby re-
turn certificates Of membership in the
National Nonpartisan league and de-
mand full and complete release from
membership in the organization.
"a study Of the principles of this
organization reveals the fact to us that
we believe is not to the best interests
of the community from a standpoint
of loyalty, unity and cooperation and
it appears to be disloyal to the best
interests of the United States under
present existing conditions.
