s. ]. Wilson is the name OF a
Snake river valley man who is work
ing to solve the problems of harvest
ing beets. He is the inventor of a
beet topper that tops them; he is the
inventor Of a beet puller that pulls
them. His inventions stand out from
others because his beet topper tops
them properly and dumps the tops
out in piles without any dirt mixed
with them. His puller stands out
from other pullers because it not
only lifts the beets out Of the ground
but elevates them into hopper and
knocks most of the dirt off of them,
and then dumps them out in piles

The state supreme court held thar
the district, being municipal cor

The assessments continued to pile
up, and to clear up the situation the
1917 legislature decided to give the
land to the district by approDriating

lands from the state. The supreme

chine shop rebuilding parts of the
machines to get them as perfect as
possible and plenty strong enough.
Simple In Operation
The beet topper centers around a
| big driveawheel resembling a drive
wheel of a binder. The rim or band
of this wheel consists Of $50 spikes
about one and one-half inches long,
with cut edge and slightly hook
shaped. These spikes press into the
beet top and q knife passes along
just below the point of the spikes
and cuts the crown from the beets..
These hook shaped spikes hang onto
the top and it is carried to the top Of
the wheel where set of steel fin
gers, rubbing on the top of the
wheel, lift the beet top of and pass
1t to an elevator that carries them
to the hopper. The driver guides the
wheel and knife by driving the team
and by the use of foot levers, SO that
he can swing 1t from side to side, II
the team gets little of the row.
Process OF Pulling
The beet puller lifts the beets a
couple of inches by means Of rods
the same as are used on other beet
pullers, but after the first lift they
are seized between two elevators that
stand on edge. They grab the beets
and lift them by slight movement
t.. point about four feet above the
position where they grew. They
seem to come up on slant of about
thirty degrees, but as q matter Of
fact they rise straight up from where
they grew. While the machines
move forward the elevator moves
backward and upward and they get
that result.

Wilson is an Idaho man. Louisville \
claims him as one Of its boys. Twenty.
five years ago he was one Of the big
boys of the village who loved to engage
in debates, at the lyceum. He had
strong mellow voice and q very good
flow Of language, but on account Of his
rather meager education his selection Of
language was not its best. In that
twenty-five years he has studied and
improved. II you meet him today and
IL you are good observer, You will
notice that he uses the English language
very correctly. He speaks with. ease
and expresses the exact thought he
wants to express. He challenges ones
admiration because thru all the years
of ups and downs he has continually
improved himself.

The fundamental law Of scouting is
that scouts shall "do good turn ev.

Of the oath Is that he shall help other

In that way he is putting hole In

help, and when boy is able to help and
has been shown what helping is, he
helps.
We are looking for the boy who helps

been helped, and we are creating in
the American boy that one quality
which is so needed todsy-solidarity
We are trying to make the people

Their organization in patrols, each

what was wanted for manning the diff

all knew how to signal, how to cook
their own food, how to manage boats,
how to swim, how to keep order and
how to obey the orders of their lead

for the service on which they were en-
ployed.

said to do just that thing. A lighted
candle on Christmas eve would notify
the carOlers that music was desired
and they would stop to sing. 1t was
all quite simple. So the candle burned
ever so brightly while the members OF
the family were busily engaged In In
specting Christmas presents and wait
ing for the community singers.
Finally the little boy began to play
on his toy piano and there was consid-
erable noise in the house. Above the
din, however. there came a sound from
out of doors.

BLIND SCOUT PICKS BERRIES.

That blindness is no handicap to pa
triotism has been proved by twelve
yehr-old Berkeley blind boy, who for
two months worked side by side with
seeing lads in the berry fields near De-
coto, Cal.
The lad, "Billy" Swan, student at
California School for the Blind, ac-
companied some 30 or more Berkeley
boy scouts into the berry fields and
put in eight hours of hard work six
days out Of every seven since then.
"Billy" earned enough money to pay
his own expenses and to contribute
to the support Of his mother.
Approximately 5000 boxes of rasp-
berries have been picked by the young
workers.
