two best teams Of the league were

the conclusions reached by the
state highway officials on the per-
manent location of the North aud
South State Highway through
Idaho and Lewis counties:

mess men. stated the route Of the
north and south highway from
Grangeville will be through Cot
tonwood. Ferdinand, Ilo, Win
chester and to connection with
the Lapwai valley construction at
Jacques Spur.
This announcement clears up
the contentious relative to the To-
cation from Grangeville to Ilo and
from Ilo to Jacques Spur. Nez-
perez had endeavored to secure
the location from Grangvillc to
Ilo and Culdesac has been work
ing to secure the location from

Mr.. Hall stated the state will be
unable to give assistance to the
proposed highway construction
on the South Fork this season, but
if the Grangeville highway dis
trict co-operates with the forestry
department in this construction,
he will recommend to the next
legislature that an appropriation
be made to reimburse the high

constructed shall be designated as
state highway.

The repast disposed of, the pa
ty spent half hour visiting with
Kamiah friends, and then motor
ed back to the prairie. The first
stop on top was at the Mcleod
home, where the garden and pig
exhibits of Donald Mcleod were
inspected. The party drove thence
to the N. B. Miller home just east
of Nezperce. and there saw the
fine fowl display of Miss Mar
jorie-her chickens being the
White Leghorn breed, including
some very fine purebred speci-
mems. A striking feature of her
work was the very clean condition
in which she keeps her chicken
house and quarters. From this
point the various projects Of the
following club workers in and
around Nezperce were visited:
Gardens Kathryn Jacobs, Del
la Hutchins. Maude Hutchins, An
gela Schmidlkofer. Margaret Ja-
cQbs, Van and Fenn Emerson,
Lonnie Mitchell. Geo. Anderson.
igs-John Schmidlkofer, Arno'
and Otto Fowler, Chester Stanton.
Poultry Marjorie Miller, Van
Emerson.
Lamhs-Ray Thomas, Earl
Hunter.
Potato-Carl Hess.
While here again, as at Kamiah,
some of the young folks had made
better progress than others, all
the work was creditable and the
workers worthy of praise for the
effort they had made.
In looking back over the many
garden projects inspected, one is
particularly impressed with the
plan adopted by Miss Kathryn Ja-
cobs of south of Nezperce. She
had taken over the. contract of
handling the entire family gar
den under her club regulations,
instead of restricting her efforts
to the small plot Of a few feet
square permitted by the rules,
And the family garden at Tom ia
cob's home is anything but a min
iature affair. 1t is laid out ind
long even rows Of every variety
of vegetable local conditions per-
nit, and each variety is well adj
vanced in growth. The condition
IS beyond criticism. Now, Miss |
Kathryn states that she does not
care for this garden alone, but en-
cages the services Of a brother
and sister in the work. and rec
ord of the time they devote to it |
IS kept and she allows them so
much per hour. and deducts the |
from the total returns,
which the club rules permit. Thus,
she is getting very tangible re-
'ults besides acquiring the know
edge of growing things-the
prime objective Of this children 5
,lub work.
The pig. poultry. lamb and rab-
Dit exhibits gave good evidence of
careful attention by the boys and
girls looking after them, and as
that there will be some
attractive displays in these lines
1t the County Farm Bureau Fair
lext October.
The very agreeable excursion
vas brought to an end at 6 p. m.
md the excursionists certainly
'elt indebted to Miss Near, the
county club leader, for having
provided such an opportunity Of
,etting at the meat Of this Boys
md Girls Club work.

HEIR TO MILLNIONs.
Member Of Lafourche Levee Board
May Inherit Big Fortune.

The following, clipped from an
article appearing in last Tuesdays
issue of the Times-Picayune, will no
doubt be read with interest by the
many friends of William T. Quinn,
member of the Lafourche Levee
Board from the parish of Jefferson,
who is well known here:
San inheritance of S19,000,00Q,
garnered from silks and ivory and
spices Of India by dashing Irish
soldier Of fortune, is the rainbow that
has appeared suddenly in the sky of
William 7. Quinn, alderman of West
wego and member Of the Lafourche
Levee Board. And Mr. Quinn is
chasing the rainbow with earnestness,
assisted by his lawyer, Leo L. Du-
Ebourg, Of the. firm of Dart, Herman
& Dart.
"The pot of gold, or at least part
Of it, will be his reward, if he can
prove the identity of an uncle,
Thomas Quinn, who ran away from
County Clare in the old country to
seek his fortune in India, and the
late Thomas Quinn who died recent
ly in the Orient, leaving behind a
fortune of $19,O00,000 to be dis
tributed among heirs in America.
Investigations have been put under
way, and the result of the inquiry
may be that the New Orleans branch
of the Quinn family will share large
ly in the great inheritance.

fourche at the time, were also car
ried to the New Orleans market BY
steamboat.
But the closing of the bayou put
an end to all steamboat traffic IN the
stream by way Of Donaldsonvlile, and
caused this once important wafer
highway to deteriorate to a conaltlon
scarcely better than large drainage
ditch, and now only few small boats
NV in the lower end Of the stream,
entering it by way of the Company
Canal which connect with the Nils
sissippi river. The fatboat industry,
which meant a great deal to this city
has been destroyed, and all. or the
great bulk of the freight traffic be-
tween Donaldsonville and Raceland,
is now handled by the railroads, WITH
no competition.
The construction Of the locks at
Donaldsonville and the reopenlng OF
the bayou to the entry of fresh water,
and to steamboat and HatpoaI ha '5',
CATION, would prove great boon co
The people Of this city and the entire
valley and would unquestionably be
welcomed by all.
Let the people Of Donaldsonville,
and of the parishes Of Ascension and
Assumption, who are. deeply interest
ed in the project, attend the hearing
at Thibodaux in large numbers. Let
them go prepared to make strong
and convincing case before the army
engineer, so that when his report has
been made the war department. might
be convinced that the question OF
locks in Bayou Lafourche is Of suf-
ficient Importance to warrant sub
stantial aid in their construc tlon
from the federal government.

yICKERs MAY BE CANDIDATE.


A few weeks ago, the Chief took
occasion to suggest that r. S. WICK
ers would make splendid represent
alive in the general assembly; being
highly educated and in every way
qualified for the position. In pro-
posing the name Of Mr.. Vickers, the
Chief also stated, that with view
of insuring his election, it might be
we'll for both of the local political
factions to endorse him, since it was
understood that under no clrcum-
stances would he become candidate
for the office in factional fight.
The Chief now learns with pleasure
that it's suggestion has been adopted
by some of the leaders of the faction
headed by DR.. Thibodaux. 1t would
be the part of wisdom for both fac
tions to endorse Mr.. Vickers and thus
insure his election to this important
post without opposition.
The time limit for filing notices
of candidates. is drawing near at
hand. So far only one person has
announced for representative, H. a.
Morgan, one of the present incum-
bents. Ascension is entitled to two,
and should no other aspirant present
himself, Mr.. Vickers will enter the
lists with Mr.. Morgan as the only two
seeking the honor, and the election
of both without opposition will be
made certain.
