owns considerable land in that vicin-
ity. He is in favor of maintaining
the roads in good condition that are
already constructed and of going on
with road construction as fast as the
financial condition of the county will
permit. Mr.. Robbins says If he is
elected county commissioner he will
see to it that no road grading is done
when the ground is dry, but that
whatever is done must be done when
the ground is moist so that it will
pack. He is in favor of employing
local people in the winter time to
haul gravel to top coat the grades
already made, that have not been
finished. s
The county central committee will
ask Governor Davis to appoint Mr..
Robbins to fill the unexpired term
of R. G. Bills.-Adv.

effect being to endorse Mr.. HELM.
James Just having resigned from the
senatorial ticket and William H. Dye
having been nominated by petition
on what is called the Independent

that place vacant, thereby practically
endorsing Mr.. Dye.

In consequence of the death Of R..
G. Bills and the withdrawal from
the ticket of ]. H. Hale, candidates
for county commissioner Of the Sec
ond district, the Republican county
central committee in session last
Saturday afternoon, selected Lewis
Robbins of Moreland as candidate
satisfactory to both factions. wv N
The committee itself was equally
divided, casting nine votes for Rob-
ms and nine voted for F. e. Seeger,
the merchant of Blackfoot. The
county chairman said that in con-
sideration of the fact that the coun-
try precincts did not have candidates
in as large numbers as the town OF
Blackfoot had, and that most Of the
candidates live in Blackfoot, he cast
his vote for Lewis Robbins. A ques-
ton was raised as to whether the
chairman, not being member Of
the committee, but merely chairman
Of the committee, had right to cast
the deciding vote, the vote was set
aside and vote was taken authoriz-
ing the chairman to cast the decid-
ing vote in case there was q tie.
They then began over again and
voted on the two nominees, Robbins
and Seeger, with the same result as
before and the chairman again cast
the vote for Mr.. Robbins.

AUDIT SHOWS
fine CONDITION
SCHOOL AFFAIRS
Financial Condition Of
District No. 8, as Re-
vealed by Special
Examination.

- Byron Defenbach and sons have
just completed the audit of Black
foot school district No. s and report
that the books are in fine condition,
the accounts of the secretary-treas-
urer having been we'll kept during
the past two years since they were
audited before.
The recommendation made by the
auditors two years ago as to how the
books should be kept, recommending
some changes from the old system,
have been followed carefully and the
auditors compliment Clerk T. j.
Johnson for the manner in which the
records have been kept.
The bonded Indebtedness of the
district is represented by seven bond
issues totalling $117,350, most of it
drawing 5 per cent interest, one is
sue drawing 5 " and one issue draw
ing 6, but the 6 per cent bond issue
has all been paid off except one bond
of $500.
In addition to the bonded indebt-
edness there is warrant indebted
ness of $31046.56, making a total
Indebtedness of $13S,296.22.
The first or oldest bond is dated
January 1900, $4,000. The next
one January 1904, $3.50. January
1906, $4,000. Anen there comes the
issue of 1911 when the high school
building was erected. The January
issue is for 100000, twenty-year
bond, ten-year option, and the July
issue of that year, twenty-year bond,
ten-year option, $zo,o00.00. The
January issue of'$30,000 was expect
ed to build the school house and
when. it was found that it would not
nearly pay for it, second issue was
made to take the warrant already
issued, and to complete the building,
the total cost of which was $4,000.
For the years following the erection
of the high school building the tax
levy was s, or 10 mills each year
and it did not pay current expenses.
The district went behind about 49,
10000 a year for five years. In July
1916 another bond issue of $4,000
was made to take up the outstanding
warrants that had been issued for
current expenses. The board levied a
little higher tax for the next two
years and still went behind about
100000 year., In July, 1918,
another bond issue Of $20,00o.00 was
made

MRS. PARKER SPENT HUNDREDS SEEKING HEALTH-TANLAC
 RESTORES HER

My troubles have been completely overcome since I have began taking Tanlac and I am enjoying the best health I have had in twenty years, y says Mrs. NJ. Parker, of 423 East 3rd St., Los Angeles, Cal.
 'I spent several thousand dollars for medicines and treatment" she continued, but it was just money thrown away. for I never got any re- lief from my suffering until l com nrenced taking Tanlac. l was prac- tically an invalid for twenty years and all my trouble was caused by the awful condition of my stomach.

To make matters worse l was attacked by rheumatism in my arms and legs, which caused me no end of pain and misery. l never got good nights sleep and became extremely nervous.

HENS NOT SET PROPERLY
 CAUSE MANY FAILURES

Many failures and poor hatcnes result from setting the hen irl- properly. While this appears to Dc very simple subject, it is a fact [ that few people follow the bet methods that are primarily necez- l sary to successful matches declares | $. R. Stout, assistant in Poultry | Husbandry, University of Arkansas. |
 The first essential in starting in the poultry business is to purchase ] eggs of some good, reliable breeder who mates nothing but strong, vi- gorous birds. Place your order for the eggs, but do not have them shipped until your are certain you will have broody hen when they arrive. When the eggs arrive, do not place them under the hen at once, but place them in cool, dry place and do not disturb them for twenty-four hours.
 A day or two before you expect the eggs to arrive, arrange a place to set the hen. Whenever hen is allowed to steal her nest away, she usually selects cool, damp place, away from the flock, so she will not be disturbed. These conditions should be duplicated as nearly as 1 possible when place is being se- lected for the hen. If it is not pos sible to set the hen on the ground. a box should be provided and sod placed in the bottom of the box. This sod should be dampened and a small amount of straw should be
 placed over it. On the other hand,
 if the nest is practically level, it
 will be noticed that the eggs roll
 from under the hen and are not
 kept warm enouh to start incuba-
 ton.
 The Dox used to set the hen in should not be deep enough to cause the hens to jump down on the eggs, but should be shallow enough to al- low her to step into the nest in a way that will prevent her from breaking the eggs. A cover or door can be made for the box so that the hen can be locked up. Never have more nests than you have setting hens. When the hens are released to get food, they do not always re turn to the same nest, and if there : are extra nests, the hen that has
 
 . nest will take the next one to it { even if there are no eggs in it The nests should be placed in { building or room that is not beinl } used for other poultry so that ths ! setting g~hen will not be disturbed. l The number of eggs to place un { der the hen will depend upon tn, { size of the hen and the season o. { the year. Usually, fifteen eggs ar, ] considered a setting, and this i the proper number to give and aver } age sized hen, However, if hen ! are set early, it is better to plac, { only thirteen eggs under the hen { Before the hen is set, she shoult be dusted with good lice powde or sodium fluoride. Then she 7. ready for the eggs. It is well t,

Hotel Floats to
 Where Fish Bite

Unable to purchase convenient site on shore, Canadian operates a floating hotel of Great Central Lake B. C., body of water noted as a fishing and hunting resort, and wins the appreciation of patrons by moy ing the quarters to any spot that af- lords the best sport, says Popular Mechanics. There are ten guest rooms on board the big house boat, each capable of accommodating two persons, large dining room and kitchen.
 Around the structure is wide veranda, from which perch can be taken with hook and line if the craft is sdvaHtageously moored. Trout are plentiful but require lit- tie more effort to capture. Wild game abound in the woods which sur round the lake.
 During the winter when ice covers the water, the proprietor of the hotel becomes a fur trapper.
