THROWN OUT OF COURT.

The case against c. S. Moody,
former adjutant general of
Idaho, of making a false certi-
ficate to voucher for travelling
expenses amounting to $176.63,
was dismissed in the district
court at Boise. The defendant
was discharged by Judge Red
doch, who sustained the defend
ants motion to quash and set
aside the information and order
ed that the bond of Mr.. Moody
be exonerated.
Judge Reddoch announced he
had looked into the authorities
submitted to him and felt that
the defendant could not be held
under the information and at
once ordered his dismissal. The
arrest of the former adjutant
general was the result of an ex-
tended legislative investigation
during the last legislative ses-
sion of which C. S. Moody was a
member. The investigation &C.
cupied several days and resulted
in a lengthy report being filed
This charged Mr.. Moody with
charging up to the state of Idaho
certain expenses on a trip to
Washington when he was MAX
ing the trip in behalf of the U.
S. government, and further al
leging that he had charged and
collected the same expenses from
the United States government.

The high school boys have
organized an Athletic Associa-
ton to; l. To encourage athletics
2. To foster school spirit. 8. To
maintain a higher standing with
other schools. Mr.. Harmon as
principal of the high school and
athletic director was given the
authority to appoint a represent

to be an ex-officer member) to
draw up a set of bylaws and to
appoint a manager for the as

The following constitute the
committee: John V. Harmon,

suggestions and wishes known
to the representative committee.
A monthly dues will be charg"

Some statements from the
Professional Code of the Mich

"Since a teacher should scru-

to sign a contract unjust and
humiliating in FORM"
1T is unproffesional for a
teacher to sign a yearly contract
to teach for wage that is not
sufficient to cover living ex-
penses for twelve months.
1T is unprofessional for a
teacher to resign during the
period for which engaged. He
may rightly ask to be released,
by giving notice of not less than
two weeks, but must in case of
refusal abide by his contract"

Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con,
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous. irrita-
bic and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp-Root, the great kidney,

them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer 4 Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel

METHODS OF HANDLING HENS
labor-Saving Appliances Are Of Value
on Poultry Farm-orchard Fur
nishes Range.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
In general the simplest methods of
handling poultry are best, especially
on general farms, where poultry Is a
side issue, though such farms furnish
the bulk of the poultry production.
Labor-saving appliances are Of value
on poultry farms, but are not always
practical on general farms. Women
and children can do most of the poul-
try work on a general farm and there
by release the labor of the men for
other farm work. On general farms,
place the poultry house convenient to
the dwelling house in order TO save
steps.
One house holding from 70 to $50
hens can be used to advantage, allow
Ing the hens free range all the time.
An excellent arrangement Is to have
the house near an orchard, which fur
nishes good range for the hens. By
allowing free range the hens will pick
up all the necessary green feed and
will also get a considerable amount
Of their grain feed. Keep large hop
pers containing dry mash before the
hens constantly, so that 1t will be neces-
sary to feed the scratch grains only
once or twice daily. Very little more
labor is required in caring for flock
containing from 100 to 100 hens than
Is required for from 80 to 100 hens,
provided all the hens are kept in one
house and have large free range.
A separate shed or a room in the
laying house can be utilized to advsn-
tage for Matching chickens with hens,
