APPLES PROVE A FAILURE

j. H. Augustine, manager of the
Idaho Orchards company has con-
Guided. after about ten years trying
to raise apples, that it is not sue
cusfull enterprise. For many years
he was optimistic and believed that
his big commercial orchard would be
a gold mine but one misfortune after
another teaches him that the only
favorable year he has seen for ap-
pies was 1911. Every other year
there has been something about the
weather or the season that defeated
his purpose.
While developing his orchard Mr..
Augustine raised corn, potatoes and
peas and some other crops between
the rows of trees to make expenses,
and he has concluded that corn is a
more profitable crop than anything
else he has tried. His method of con-
verting the corn into money is to
have the fields fenced with woven
wire and turn the hogs into the
corn field when it is about matured.
They do not waste it and there is no
expense for feeding the hogs nor
harvesting the corn. The hogs at
tend to that part of it themselves
Mr.. Augustine has turned out car
load of fat hogs about every thirty
days this fall and says he intends to
plant 400 AGREES of corn next spring.
He has the native seed all ready for
it and thinks that there will be some
good profit in corn and pork for an
other year or two at least. He says
that for nine successive seasons the
corn crop has been successful and
profitable to him,

FAMILY FROM RUSSIA

Mr.. Chafer and family live about
one mile northeast of Moreland and
Mr., Chafer works at the sugar fac
tory. Just before the European war
broke out the CHATTER family, who
were living in southeastern Russia,
got enough money together to bring
them to America. The family con-
sists of the mother, father and eight
children and 1t cost them $4,000 for
their steamer passages to America.
They settled first in Dakota, but
came to Idaho about one year ago.
They had two farms in Russia and
were in colony that was mixture
of Germans and Russians. The Rus
slams stole a great deal from the
Germans they say and they did not
get along together. Horse stealing
was one of the favorite games Of the
Russians, altho they would steal most
anything they could get away with.
Mr.. Chafer disposed of his property
with the exception Of thirty-eight
acres of land which he still holds
title to and he supposes that he has
1t rented. The armies have over
run the country back and forth to
such an extent it Is rather difficult
to tell just where one stands with
their property. A sisters husband,
who entered the war, was killed.
The sister and the children haye had
hard time to get along and year
or so ago they received q letter from
her asking for old clothes or shoes
or money if they could send some,
as they had scarcely anything to
wear or live on. Mr.. Chafer and
his family scraped together 5000 and
sent it to her and have recently tried
to get message thru saying that If
they can come to America, or If the
mother is dead. and the children can
come to America, he will take rare
OF them along with the present fam
ilv of ten. The Chafer family de sire
to rent farm for the coming sum-
Mer.

UNCLE SAM WANTS 24OO
TONS OF. GEM STATE HAY

Idaho farmers in the Snake river
valley have an opportunity to make
bids on 2400 tons of hay for the gov
eminent, to be delivered at tidewater
at Seattle and Tacoma, according to
o. o. Haga. chairman Of Boise com
mittee of the war resources board.
Shipment. across the Pacific, pre-
sumably to Manila or Honolulu, is
to be made, and because of this the
hay must be double-compressed.
Alternative bids are provided for,
however, which permit of bidding on
single compressed hay. but prices on
this must be based (. o. b. shipping
point; the intentions of the govern
ment being evidently, that should
the bid be accepted, the hay would
y be recompressed to the desired dem
sity.
Hay upon which bids are made
must measure up to the August, 1917
standard Of the National Hay associa-
ton, and all bids must be in before
II o'clock on the morning of De-
cember 10, at Seattle, so for this
reason bidders must communicate
with 0. o .Haga, SIT Idaho building,
Boise, Idaho, some time before the
end Of this week.
Hay for Pacific port shipments
has been handled heretofore mostly
by growers in the Yakima country,
and for this purpose they are pro-
vided with suitable machinery for
the double compression of hay" said
Mr.. Haga, "but ! believe that Idaho
farmers and especially those living
in the Snake river valley, may OBJ
tain a new market for much of their
surplus hay by providing themselves
with balers which will handle this
work"

No matter what else in the way of
wraps is offered for midsummer, we
are always sur of the taffeta coat.
1t is so practical and so pretty that
1t cannot be banished entirely-it
comes along as inevitably as the
Fourth of July or the bathing suit.
Here it is as interpreted for this sum-
mer in t~affeta, with landings of vel
vet. 1t is as graceful and easy as the
popular cape and at least as little
trouble to manage.
In colors these silk coats are best
in dark shades-deep blue, brown and
green proving full of style. There is
always black, of course, depending
upon smartness of the design to rescue
it from being commonplace. The lus-
ter of taffeta makes it a wonderful me-
dunn for colors.
Very much less familiar are new

ResourcefuI and Brave Cook.

That a cook should perform an act Of
the utmost daring in the pursuit Of his
occupation as a purveyor of food seems
almost incredible. Yet that is what
was done by William B. Gray, a third
class ships cook in the United States
naval reserve. During the cold wealth.
er of last winter the Roanoke marshes
in North Carolina were frozen and
boats were unable to reach the keeper
Of a lighthouse, who was consequently
in danger of starvation. Gray made
a sled by putting runners upon a life
boat, loaded it with food and hauled
It across the ice, which was broken and
tossed by strong and dangerous cur
rents, to the lighthouse, thus saving
the keepers life and enabling him to
continue at his post Of duty. Gray Is
a native of North Carolina.

portion about the shoulder and sleeve
is of the silk, often extended below
the waist, forming a long waist effect.
Collars-which are ample-are Of the
velours and cuffs to match them. Those
who are looking for something new
might consider the silk jersey or wool
and jersey combinations.
Pongee, like t~affeta, we have always
with us in aristocratic coats. They
are among those present this year.
Very handsome models are entirely Of
pongee and others of pongee and black
satin, the satin used in collars and
cuffs and in wide borders at the bot
tom of the garment. Very handsome
long capes of black satin lined with
colored satin have scored a success,
and some very dressy capes are in
light colors finished with deep silk
fringeS.
