AppOrtionment to EOotenai
County Conventions.

Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. - Tive
years ago, it cost the taxpayers O.
Idaho Io7 for every vote cast al
the primary election. This year i,
will cost them practically nothing,
as the counties will furnish the
booths, which are already availa.
BILE, and the ballots. Each political
party must provide a place 10 vote
and pay the expenses of holding
the election. AS rule, it is ex-
pected that judges and clerks OF
election will volunteer their ser
vices.
The primary election this year
will be held by each party on the
same day, August 3, but each
party must have a separate polling
place in each precinct. All nomil
nations for county Offices, delegates
to county conventions, precinct
committeemen and members of the
legislature must be filed not later
than July 8.
AT the primaries no person is
entitled to vote unless he or she
is registered in the precinct and is
bona 6de member of the political
party holding the primary election
in which he or she offers to vote.
The number of delegates from
each precinct to the county con
vention is determined by the total
of vstes cast at the last preceding
election for candidates Of that pol
itical faith. The apportionments
fixed from the Kootenai county
precincts are as follows:

damage and lps,ened the crop by
several hundred cars. In one section
an estimate of 100 cars of apples was

of the trees prevents the peach crop

tance. Cherries, apricots and pears

wheat and corn are grown; sugar beets
are successfully grown and manufactured
into sugar for both domestic use and ex-
port. Large quantities of fruit also are
exported and Tokay wine came from this
land before the war. Acacia trees are
planted extensively to prevent the cult
waited land being submerged by the sand
storms from the steppe lands in the mid
die Danube district. The timber is useful
for cabinet making, and minerals are
found suitable for the manufacture of
agricultural implements and machinery.
Sericulture (rearing silkworms) employs
many people; beekeeping is a profitable
industry, while milling and leather-work-
ing are important enterprises.
1t will be interesting to learn that the
capital derived its name on account of it
being "double" town-Buda is on the
west or right bank, and Pest sometimes
spelt Pesth) is on the east or left bank.
Together they make BUDAPEST and it has
been quite an important centre since the
early Roman times. Buda is the official
quarter and the older portion, while Pest
contains the manufactures and carries on
the main commercial enterprises.
Szegedin (119,OO0) is the largest town
in the Great Hungarian plain, and, like
Debreczin (93,O00), an important centre
of provincial life, and busy market.
Debreczin lies in the Hortobagy Steppe
area, which is famous for its long-horned
cattle and its fine horses.-Ex.

NEW MEDICINE DISCOVERED

There is a brand new medicine, just
discovered in France; it is the extract of
our old friend the mistetoe. DR.. Charles
Green Cumston, Swiss correspondent of
the New York Medical Journal, in, re-
porting it to that paper, says, however,
that the American mistletoe will not do,
as its effects are different from its French
sister.
The new preparation is called viscum
album. 1t was discovered by DR.. Faul-
tier, and he and DR.. Doyen have had
great success with it in checking certain
forms of hemorrhage. 1t is given either
in the form of pills or injections into the
veins. Its effect is to dilate the blood
vessels by paralyzing the vasomotor CEN
tiers of the nervous system; to increase the
systolic energy of the heart and slow the
heart beats; to cause contraction of the
unstriped fbers of the muscles.
Intestinal hemorrhage due to typhoid
fever is checked by it, and it is said to
be admirable for use in hardening of
arteries.-Ex.

Backward, turn backward. o Time, in

Price me dinner that's not out of sight.
Comfort my soul with a good steaming
And give me real cream for my butter
and toast.
Downward, press downward the prices
that soar;
Give me my moneys worth, just as of
yore.
Oh, Pm so tired of lightning my belt
To meet the conditions my pockets have
felt,
Of swindling my stomach with baconless
beans,
With spinach and chard and all kinds of
My buffers wafer, my sugars speck,
There's nothing of magnitude saving my
check.
Oh am weary of bread made of bran,
Of cocoanut butter and soups that they
Of ancient goat-mutton that passes for
lamb.
Give me some ham again-give me some
ham!
o Memory come, with your treasure of
years,
And paint US picture with no profteers;
A table that's spread with the fruits of
the field
And garnished with such as the garden
can yield,
The hot ears of corn, in a rick mounting
high,
Beside the fried chicken and fat pumpkin
pie;
The fresh-gathered strawberry cunningly
peeps
Through the cream that's been whipped
till it blubbers and weeps.
o Tempus, turn backward your fast-roll-
ing wheels
And bring us again to those old-fashioned
meals!

ALLIGATOR FARMING PROFITABLE

There is much money to be made in
alligator farming. The demand for al
ligators is large, constant and rapidly
increasing; the supply is limited and
there is not much competition. The few
alligator farmers in America are pros
pering. Alligators have to be fed on
meat, but they need no food from Septem-
Der to May 1, for this is their hibernat-
ing season, when they do not eat at all.
Alligator skins are used for making bags,
suitcases, purses, belts, custom covers, etc,
and the teeth and bones are made into
cuff links, paper knives, whistles and
many forms of cheap jewelry and orna-
ments.-E1.

LIVING

There's no other way, to- be happy and
gay,
Than by doing little each day;
For then you will see, that work will
agree,
When you make an allowance for play.
Don't work all the while, take time just
to smile,
AS onward your life you pursue;
Give God the praise, for blessing your
days,
And showing you something to do.
Then YOU will find, that if you are kind
And thoughtful for those who are sad,
That life holds more, than you knew be-
You tried to make others glad.

The wherefore or how,

What some would call a stain.
And so by earnest efforts
Continued day and night,

With waters pure and bright.
So you by true endeavor
May climb the stairs of fame,
And by your overcoming,
Teach us to do the same.
