What S in a Name?
RUBY.
By Mildred Marshall

There seems TO be no reference
of the first appearance Of jewels
as feminine names. Neither the
Bible nor early history shows evil
deuce Of this tendency TO name
women after gems. Indeed etymol-
ogists do not recognize Ruby and
her sister names as names at all
and they are not listed in the lists
OF cognomen.
Ruby has many equivalents in
Sanskrit and among the Hindus who
regarded the gem as the king OF
precious stones, but none OF them
are capable of usage as q proper
name. Undoubtedly. Ruby was first
bestowed upon a child with the idea
OF likening it to the pufsing. glow
ing, fame-hearted gem. II may even
be that some superstitious mother
believed that she would confer upon
her wee babe the heritage OF the
ruby which is. wealth, power and
the adultation of fellow men
The name made its first appear
ance in England where II was
favorite with music hall actresses,
Its advent in this country was less
spectacular. but IL has never ceased
to be a popular stage name. The
regal gen. for which it stands, must
have given il popularity, for there
! is nothing striking in either its his
tory or its prevalence.
| Ruby's talismanic stone is OF
, course the one which she personifies
II old legend be correct she will be
blessed among women in possess
ling all the material benefits Of this
world and will Furthermore be pro-
tected from disease and accidents
Thursday is her lucky day and heI
lucky number.

Louis Moe Bot First Wheat Milled
In Minot

Louis Moe Of Russo, an early Minot
grain buyer, visited old friends in Mi
not Monday and Tuesday. Mr.. Moe
who bought grain for the Osborn Nc
MILAN Co., at a fiat house in this city,
bought the first wheat that was ever
milled in Minot. He bought the wheat
in the fall Of 1901 and secured only
800 bushels that fall, about, all that
was raised in the vicinity Of Minot.
He sold the wheat to Clayton Cox,
manager of the Brauer mill, which is
now operated as the Minot Flour mill.
Mr.. Cox had just come here from
Harvey that season to operate the
mill which was built in 1901.
During the fall of 1901, Mr.. Moe
bought 10000 bushels of flax in Mi
not.

E. B. McCutcheon, who is in charge
Of some political work in Minnesota,
fighting the Townley forces, returned
to Minot the first of the week to at
tend the second annual reunion of
the Scottish Rite bodies. The anti
Townley organization in Minnesota
comprises more than four hundred
people including twu hundred women.
The Minnesota primary election will
be held June 81 and some hard work
is being done by both sides. The anti
Townley forces have hired good
many speakers from North Dakota,
including Geo. T. Murray, Berthold
farmer. A series Of motion pictures
are being given throut the state and
a newspaper with a circulation of
nearly half a million is being circu-
lated over the state each week. The
fight promises to be close.

Fargo Man Plans Historic Pageant
for Ward County

A. G. Arvord of Fargo, who won
fame as the "Father of the Little
Country Theatre" while in Minot Mon
day, considered the starting of his
torical pageant for Ward county to
be staged at beautiful Riverside Park
sometime in the future. Mr.. Arvord
suggests that the work be done large
lyby the school children of Ward coun-
ty, which would require some pupils
from every school in the county. The
pageant would depict the development
of Ward county from pioneer days,
taking in the period of the OK cart,
the buffalo and the Indian up to the
present time. It is estimated that
such pageant would be witnessed by
fully 10000 people.

THE NORTH AND
SOUTH HIGHWAY

The northern and southern parts
OF Idaho have always been divided
as effectually as if they were sep
arated by an ocean. The rugged
hills and mountains have proved an
impenetrable barrier to railroad con-
struction, and until comparatively
recently, no highway has joined the
highlands of the north with the val
leys of the south. AS result, peo-
pie wishing to travel from Moscow,
Lewiston, Occur d'Alene or any other
northern city, to the state capitol
at Boise, have been obliged to go
thru three states, Idaho, Washing
ton and Oregon.
Now, however, the work on the
north and south highway is well
under way, and before next winter
one can go from Weiser to the Cana
dian line without leaving Idaho at
any point of the journey.
One of the first acts of the state
highway commission, after it's or
ganization in 1913, was to designate
road from Weiser to Occur
d'Alene, via New Meadows, White
bird, Lewiston, Moscow and St.
Maries. AS originally designated,
the road was a section of the Idaho
Pacific highway. 1t was redesig-
mated under it's present name in
1915.
The road from Occur d'Alene to
the Canadian line, via Standpoint and
Boomers Ferry, was designated as
the Panhandle highway in 1916. 1t
was redesignated as a part of the
north and south highway in 1919.
Three sections of the highway
were improved in 1916; between
Midvale and Cambridge, Washing
ton county; near the town of White
bird, Idaho county; and on the
uniontown grade near Lewiston, Nez
Perez county. The greater part of
this work was done by convict labor.
During 1917 and 1918 the war
interfered with highway construc-
ton, but a large part of the road
was surveyed, and small amount
of the route was built in Adams,
Nez Perez and Washington counties.
About forty-tive miles of road was
graded and drained, and a short Sec
ton was surfaced with crushed rock.

DESTROYS of getting data as to apple
crop conditions in southern Idaho IL
shown by a telegram Mr.. Sinsel re-
ceiyed from the International Ap-
pie Growers, association, inquiring
as to the outlook.
Estimates in the east place the
crops lighter than they were last
year, with decreases in the Lewis
ton, Twin Falls, Payette and Fruit
land districts. Mr.. Sinsel, however,
although he does not know to just
what extent crops were damaged in
the Lewiston district by the recent
storm there, or how water shortage
is affecting crops in other districts,
believes the apple crop this year will
exceed last years, when $3.50 car
loads were shipped out of the state.
General reports on potatoes in
southern Idaho show the potato crop
larger than was expected.
l.. A. Blunck Of Weiser reports
that his New York house wires him:
Gables from England advise that
control price on apples has been re-
moved from August l to Novem-

my Dear Mr.. Trego:
II have just taken few minutes
after dinner to read another in

tell you that am enjoying the Sc
ries immensely. Perhaps I am more
especially interested because I am
raising beets-my first attempt Il
planted five acres last year but there
wasn't enough moisture on Lost riv-

to raise any last year,.
They are an interesting crop,
very much so when one tries to take
care of seven acres practically alone
along with countless other jobs usu-
ally found on a farm, regardless Of
it's size.
II am saving 'Beets, Politics and

in pamphlet form l may have it
done.
Another thing | wish to- COM

off the press agent stuff l happen
to know about such tactics but it
is surprising how few people there
are who do. l have just read the
clipping from the Idaho Falls Post
and you comment thereon, and wish
to add a little to the comment. To

replied at length stating that farm
