ALL DUE TO MALNUTRITI0N
Various Diseases Of Infancy and
Childhood That Can Be Traced to
Undernourishment

Practically all varieties of malnutri-
ton occurring during infancy and
early childhood tend to terminate In
ricketts,. disease characterized by
softening of the bones and consequent
deformity. The essential feature Of
ricketts,, says DR.. e. Pritchard In the
British Medical Journal, Is the want Of
Qualification or naturalization Of de-
veloping bone, and this. In Its turn, Is
due to the existence Of requirements
for calcium, which for the time being
are more urgent than those OF develop.
Ing bone. These urgent requirements
are the necessity for neutralizlng acid
bodies in the blood; In other words,
to neutralize or compensate an exist.
Ing acidosls. Doctor Pritchard argues
that all chronic conditions of malnutrl-
ton, OF whatever kind or from whatso-
ever cause arising, finally terminate In
an acldosis-all Of which means that
children who do not get proper nour-
ishment are In fair way to become
deformed.

ROBBERY IN FERDINAND.

Tuesday, near midnight a
Maxwell car, belonging to Joe
Kuther was taken from his gar
age and headed south on the
Cottonwood road, and up to 60
ing to press, has not been recov-
cred.
The same evening someone
had taken Arthur Hasse's car
from his garage, but were UNI
able to get it started off the
place. The robbers had taken !,
kodak from the Sauters' car in
the same lot and placed it in the
Hasse car where it was found in
the morning.
Two young men aged about II,
according to Mrs. McMurray
came to her home Tuesday even
ing, near midnight and asked for
a drink of water. She escorted
them to the rear porch, where
they took on about five glasses
of water, each. They said, their
car had broken down in Cotton
wood, and they were walking to
Kamiah. This aroused suspicion
as Ferdinand would be far out of
their way. A Ford car was
found near the Uhlorn place the
same morning, abandoned, head
ed for Cottonwood, and it is the
opinion of some that the robbers
are part of the Jail birds who g.
capped from the Pendelton Jail a
few nights ago, and killed Sher-
iff Taylor.
Scouting parties are out fol-
lowing the tracts of the car, and
Sheriff Eller, who was notified
at Grangevile, is hot on the trail.
If this gang is part of the Pend
Teton bunch, there is a heavy re-
ward for their capture, and there
are quite number of prize seek
ers right here in Ferdinand

COSTS $1,000 FOR PRIMARY,

The county clerk, Henry Telch.
er advises that the cost to the
taxpayers for holding the prim-
airy elections August 3 will be
about $1,000 to settle three con-
tests between two democrats and
two republican contestants for
legislative honors, and to decide
whether John d. Long, incum-
bent, or G.. w. Tarbet shall be
nominated by the republicans for
the Second commissioner dist
riot, which includes all of Camas
prairie precincts.
Expenditure of $1,000 by the
county covers cost of ballot box
es, election supplies, ballots,
transportation of supplies to and
from polling places and the like.
The law is mandatory and the
primary must be held even if
there are no contests. Precinct
committeeman and delegates to
the county convention are also
elected at the primary. Judges
and clerks of election are requir-
ed to serve without pay, and can
didates must furnish the polling
places. AS there are so widely
scattered precincts in this great
county the expense is consider
able.

CHICKEN DEMONSTRATION

Prem Moore, the chicken spec
ialist of the extension depart
ment of the University of Idaho.
accompanied by County Agent
Pavey, were in Cottonwood last
Friday to give a demonstration
of culling chickens and also to
give other information regarding
the domestic foul. The demon
stration work took place at the
c. ii. Greve residence and was
attended by a small, yet a very
interested crowd. Many were
under the impression that the
chicken specialist would visit
Cottonwood Saturday as was at
first advertised but owing to
some conditions over which the
above mentioned gentlemen had
no control, the meeting had to be
held a day earlier.

PICNIC AT WINCHESTER.

A big social affair in Masonic
circles will be the first annual
Masonic picnic to be held at Win
chester AugustS. The territory
to be represented on this oc-
casion includes the Camas and
Nez Perez prairies. the towns of
Clearwater, Lewiston, Charleston
and Asotin. The participating
Masonic lodges are those at Nez-
perez, Craigmont, Grangeville,
Winchester, Clifford, Lewiston,
Charleston and Asotin.
One of the features of the day
will be a ball game between
teams of the Prairie league.
There is also talk of having a
ball game between a nine from
the Lewiston lodge and the chal-
longing team from Craigmont.
Minor sports will include a tug
of war and other features. 1t is
hoped to arrange for as many as
ten boats on the lake. Free

ed.

bile factories, which produce
over 400 different models, which,
with accessories aggregate an
annual value of almost $1,000
100000. The nation boasts over
$4,000 garages and has over
$4,000 automobile dealers. Des-
pite these astounding figures the
industry is claimed by experts
still to be in its infancy, with
rich foreign markets barely
touched, and its demand for cars
at home exceed the supply.

FIRST PARLIAMENT IN 1885
From That Time Dates the Entry Of
the Commons into Power In
the State.

The goth Of January, 1865. was a
great day not only for the English
speaking people but the world; 1t vas
the time appointed for the meeting Of
the first parliament In England

first uses the word In reference to q
council Of the barons In 1248, but II

war which very much resembled that
of the seventeenth century, being for
law against an arbitrary power as tx
pressed by royalty, that the first par.
liaments, properly so-called, were as
sembled. II was ut this time that
Simon de Montfort held King Henry
In his power.
This parliament was summoned in
such manner that there should be
two knights for each county. and two
citizens for every borough; the first
clear acknowledgment of the commons
element In the state. The meeting was
held In that magnificent hall at West
minister and the representatives OF the
commons sat In the same place with
their noble associates. probably at the
bottom of the hall. little disposed to
assert controlling voice nor joining
In any vote. But there they were
and. Notwithstanding the fact that De
Montfort was shortly overpowered
and he and nearly all OF his associates
slaughtered, the commons were never
again left out. II was an admitted
power entitled to be consulted In all
great national movements and to have
directing voice In the matter Of
taxation.

MAKING OR
BREAKING

Bringing up children is a problem
to all parents.
The character of a child is mould
ed principally in its younger years
and it seldom leaves the pathway il
has been trodding in those days.
1t is made or broken by its parents
Some parents are always kind to
their children, but firm, insisting up
on implicit obedience The world is
full of such children, now grown to
manhood, and they are dominating
the really important affairs of the
world.
Other parents are weak and vacil-
lating. They coax, wheedle, storm,
rave and threaten-but never punish.
They are not obeyed, and are often
defed. The world is also peopled
with these children, now men. Much
of the peopling is within the four walls
of jail or penitentiary.
It is problem indeed, but one which
many parents fail to solve until too
late.
The children do it for them-in their
own way.

BIGGEST CORN
CROP in YEARS

The greatest corn crop in history
will be harvested in America this year
The present promise of 3,216,192, 900
bushels of corn is over 90,000,000 bush
els in excess of any crop ever grown
and nearly 300,0O0,000 bushels more
than was produced last year. The con
dition, Of the crop as predicted by the
Crop Reporting Board of the Depart
ment of Agriculture is 24.3 points high
er than the average and the highest
since 1906
There will be about 200,000,000 bu-
shells of oats more grown than last
year, the crop approximating 1,444,-
1000 bushels.
Those figures announced by the De-
partment of Agriculture mean that
hundreds of millions of dollars will
go into the hands of the farmers of
America. How many of those mil
lions remain in those hands and how
many are allowed to slip thru those
hands, depends upon the individual
farmers themselves.

"LET THE
WOMENDOIT"

In this country there are large
numbers of men who are too lazy or
Indifferent, or too greedy in the ac-
emulation of wealth to go to the polls
and vote-to pay the debt they owe to
their country.
They think they are good citizens,
but many other people think they are
not.
Women have always forged to the
front in all good work, and unques-
tionably they will take up their new
ly acquired burdens of citizenship as
rapidly as they can adjust themselves
to their new station in political life.
Will they lead in the voting OF the
future?
Will they put the stay-at-home man
to shame?
