The Twin Falls book is of the edi-
ton known as the "Britches Bible -
1t is in a splendid state of preserva-

quaint and curious style. and has a

with it an air of antiquity impossible
to mistake.

At the present time the Army uses

Facts brought out in tests seem to
prove that men in the present Army

by the larger sizes of shoes called

Not all of the aphis will be killed

Two or three days before turning

aphids are found. even though they

things to keep In mind:
% There is danger of reinfesta-
tion. All clover along roadsides. the
fence-rows. irrigation bitches, and old
clover stands in orchards, are infest.
ed with aphis. Such clover must be
plowed under or grazed Into the
ground with sheep before the seed
crop begins growth. Some of the
clover aphis have wings and may be
carried by light breezes for long dis
tances.

to handle than red clover because il
grows more densely and the stems
spread out on the ground. Thus so
much is left by the moving machine

lection from the heat of the sun. AL
