STATESMAN TOO PARTISAN

The Boise Statesman, in an attempt
to set forth the political complexion of
! the next state legislature, arrives at the
conclusion thai the state senate will be
comprised of thirty Republicans, six
Non-Partisans and five Democrats,
while, according to that newspaper, the
house viii consist of forty five Republi-
cans, eleven Democrats and eight Non
partisans.
The Statesman has listed each legisla-
or-elect in what purports to be his prop
er political classification, namely Repub
hcan, Democrat, or Non partisan. If
the Statesman s classifications of legis-
iators from all parts of Idaho are as
grossly wrong as are two of those ere
ulted to Idaho county, the tables so
'aoorlously prepared by that newspaper
cannot be construed IS a proper guide

The Statesman asserts that State
senator n. B. Pettibone; elected as a
'e'poerat from Idaho county. is 90 Non
artisan league senator, and that
newspaper also says August Schroeder,
'eeted representative from Idaho
Onnty on the Democratic ticket, is

THE "FLU,, RErIIRNs

Undue alarm should not be felt no

fluenza epidemics tells us. is such tba,
the disease often is thought to be en-.
tirely eliminated from community

Perhaps score of new eases wiz de-
velop, and then the disease will die
down for a time, only to return at in
tervals. The disease may be prevalent
in community at intervals covering
Year or more.
Danger of death from influenza is
slight. In Idaho only one death has
occurred in every forty cases reported
to the state board of health, and the
death rate could have been materially
lessened, if advices of physicians had
been needed by every patient
Most influenza deaths are due 10
carelesseness. The ailment in itself is
minor, but it is the complications likely
to develop through exposure that result |
in pneumonia, which often terminates in |
death.
When Spanish Influenza first broke |
out it found doctors and nurses unfami-

WHEN TO CUT SWEET
CLOVER AND ALFALFA

With oncoming warm weather ou,
crops should progress rapidly; we
nave a good amount of moisture
The first cutting of alfalfa and sweet
clover should be ready about the
10Th of this month. Before cutting
alfalfa observe that the plant has
reached the stage where new shoots
are springing from the base of the
plant. This is important to make a
successful start for the next crop.
Sweet clover should be cut be-
fore it's too woody. Eighteen to "a
inches is about the best height. Do
not cut this crop too close. Leave
at least four-inch stubble. The
second crop springs from the stub
and not the crown of the plant as
IN alfalfa.
DO not wait until the stem is dry
before raking. Alfalfa and sweet
clover should be raked Immediately
after the first stage of willing. Cur
ing the hay should go on in the wind
rows, or better sill, in hay cocks.
Alfalfa and sweet clover left to dry,
scattered in the field, allows for
great loss in feeding value.

MARKETING WOOL

The United States government has
commandeered the entire 1913 wool
CUP OF the country and is going
about the receiving and distributing
OF wool in the following manner:
They have designated ten different
towns in the United States as re-
celvlng and distributing centers and
will appoint one or more firms in
these distributing centers to receive
wool on consignment and display the
same in a proper manner so that
the representatives of the Wool de-
partment of the War Industry board
can examine and appraise the same.
After this is done, the Quartermas-
ter's department will designate the
mills entitled to receive the same
and these mills Or the government
will pay the firm at the distributing
center small fee for their services.
so that any producer can receive the
full government price for his wool,
by consigning the same to an au
thorized firm at a distributing CEN
ter.
At the Twin Cities, the government
has authorized the Equity Cooperat-
i've Exchange to receive wool for their
account. The Exchange convinced the
government that they had sufficient
flre-proof storage facilities at their
command, to store and show the en-
tire clip of the Northwest.
Since the governments action in
approving the Exchange as a receiv-
ing firm for wool in the Twin Cities.
many shipments of wool have reach
ed the Exchange and many requests
are coming to them for sacks and
twine. This action on the part of
the government in recognizing a
farmers organization at a terminal
market is very interesting, inasmuch
as it is probably the first time that
The United States government has
ever recognized farmers organi-
zation, doing business on a terminal
market.

CONSTRUCTIVE
NOT DESTRUCTIVE.

The program and platform of the
Nonpartisan League in Idaho is a
constructive one. There is nothing
destructive in it. From an econo-
mic standpoint it is thoroughly
sound.
1t has one destructive feature,
however, from the viewpoint of spe-
cial privilege. It will wipe monopo-
hstlc control of state and Federal
governmental machinery out of ex-
,stence.- Idaho Leader.
