Plant Gardens

Now is the time to plant seeds for
your gardens. Let every home In
the country have a few pretty flowers
around the house and If possible
some vegetables in the back yard.
This is the wish of the q. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture. 1t is a dc
tate at. once of aesthetics and sound
economice.
Hon. William D. Upshow, OF
Georgia, recently made a strong ap-
peal in the House Of Representatives
for larger appropriation to aug
ment the amo1rt Of Government
seeds. Flowers around a house
make it more of homo. They NIL
it with beauty and fragrance and be-
speak a love and hope which are the
essence of real home. Henry
Ward Beecher used to say that If he
were seeking a place to spend
night in a strange country he would
keep on going until ne found
house with flowers in the yard, for
refinement and love must be within
when beautiful flowers smile out
side.
Teach the school boys and girls
to help beautify their homes, to work
a little each day in the garden, and
to be proud of every duty which
brings happiness to home and par
ents, to community and country. The
fact that the war is over is no sig
nal to waste We must now con-
serve to pay the debt. Help do this
by planting vegetables, tending them
and using their yield, and at the
sama. time don't forget the beauty,
grace, and fragrance that. may pc

TELL OF KILLING
DAUGHTERS AND son OF FORMER
JUDGE SAY BROTHER KILLED
w. H. MNUTT

SPOKANE.-Will Mcdonald, elder
brother of Ted, Marie and Fay Nc
Donald, on trial in superior court here
on a charge of first degree murder
in connection with the death of w. HI.
McNutt, was declared by each of the
defendants to have done the killing
when they took the stand as witness
es in their own behalf Monday after
noon.
Will Mcdonald, also charged with
first degree murder, has not been ap-
pretended.
According to the story told by each
of the three defendants, Will Nc
Donald became involved in fight
with McNutt when he burst into the
apartments of his sister, Marie, in
local lodging house, last June 23 and
found McNutt beating the woman.
When McNutt drew pistol Will
struck him on the head with ham
mer, it was declared.
He then took the body away, and
when Ted arrived at their rooms
later, he was sent to the McNutt farm
near Scotia, Wash, about forty miles
from this city, to seek his brother
and persuade him to consent to call
ing in the police, it was testified.
according to Ted's story, his
brother demurred, saying it was too
late as he had "buried the body"
McNutt's body was found, some
months after his disappearance, in a
shallow grave on his farm near Scotia,
n the ownership of which the Nc
Donalds were interested with him.
Marie Mcdonald testified of alleged
IMMORAL relations with McNutt, say
ng she had maintained them even |
hough she feared for her life at his |
lands, because of affection for him.
She denied having had a check de-
Jared to have been i'll McNutt's pos
ession at the time of his death and
al dshe had never attempted to cash
t at a local store, as prosecution wit
leSSeS had testified.

The attendance at Farmers and
Housekeepers' week at the University
of Idaho is larger today, the second
day OF the term, than yesterday and
is proving interesting Early this
forenoon farmers began to arrive
with theier wives and sons and
daughters, and there were a number
of visitors on the campus during the
forenoon. Before the forenoon ses-
slons opened there were number of
visitors looking over the grounds and
the buildings and inspecting the
stock. The sessions began at 9
O'Clock and were fairly we'll attended.
The reception last night had fair
attendance, despite the many counter
attractions, including the special
shows and the Drama club play at
Guild Hall. President Lindley de-
livered an address of welcome and
four sets of pictures were shown, the
films being especially attractive and
appropriate. One picture showed
grazing scenes in the national forest
reserves; another showed power farm
ing and there were two of Hereford
cattle, one showing the great record
sale of this breed held by Mousel

DOES MOSCOW WANT
TROOP OF CAVALRY
ADJUTANT GENERAL PATCH
WANTS TO PLACE TROOP OF
CAVALRY HERE

BOISE, Ida.-The war department
has authorized Colonel l.. V. Patch,
the adjutant general of the state of
Idaho, to organize in the state, units
of cavalry, heavy artillery, machine
gun or infantry, and in the very near
future strenuous campaign will be
made to locate these units in towns
that desire them. The government is
very liberal in providing for these
national guard organizations. For
instance, in the organization of
troop of cavalry the government furn-
ishes all horses and feed for the same,
pays the hire Of men to take care of
these horses, furnishes all saddles,
uniforms and complete equipment and
pays the men and officers for every
drill period. Experienced officers will
be sent to instruct the men in modern
epuitation. The Officers and men in
the cavalry as in all national guard
organizations will draw one fourth
of the regular army pay, which to en-
listed men amounts to about $1.70 per
drill. The state of Idaho furnishes
$500 per year for armory rent.
In the event of the organization of
artillery units, the 155 nm. guns will
be supplied which is the same calibre
gun used by the 146th Field Artillery
in France, or in the event of your
community desiring to organize an
infantry or machine gun unit, the
most modern equipment will be furn-
ished to the organization. Millions
of dollars worth of ammunition is
available for the national guard of
the various states to be used in target
practice which will be made a, special
feature by Colonel Ned M. Green, who
is ansofficer of the United States reg
ular army, assigned as Inspector in
structor. to Idaho and who has a ma
tional reputation in craftsmanship,
having held the worlds record in GER
tain phases of rifle and pistol firing.
It is the intention of the Adjutant
General, accompanied by Colonel |
Green to visit the larger towns of
the state where sufficient number of
men are available for the organiza-
lion of these units and endeavor TO

IDAHO FARM LABOR
WAS PAID BIG WAGES
FIELD AGENT JACOBSON ISSUHS
INTERESTING STATEMENT
ON THIS SUBJECT

Idaho paid the highest monthly
wages for farm labor in 1919 and
1918 of any state in the Union. In
fact they were almost double the
average for the United States, accord
ing to figures released by the Boise
office of the Idaho crop reporting
service. The average rate per month
without board was S9360 last year
and $86.25 in 1918, or ain increase of
S.5 per cent in one year Back in the
good old days of 1910, when prices
seemed a bit unreasonable, Idaho
farmers were paying S49.50 month
for the same class of labor, which
price at that time was exceeded only
in three other states. Thus in the
short space of ten years the farmer
has been required to increase the
wages of his hired man 80 per cent.
When the farmer furnished board
for his men, the monthly wage in
1919 was $4,000; in 1918 S64.00; in
1910, $500, only one state exceeding
the Idaho 1919 and 1918 rate, while
two states exceeded the 1910 rate.
Harvest hands without board were
paid $495 in 1919; $4.45 in 1918 and
$3.50 in 1910. These seem reasonable
enough when compared with $500
and $6.25 day paid last year in
South Dakota and Nebraska harvest
fields. When board was furnished,
the Idaho harvest hand received $4.00
per day last year; $3.50 in 1918 and
1920 back in 1910.
For work other than harvest, Idaho
farmers paid $3.50 per day without
board in 1919; 1895 day in 1918
and $2.27 in 1910. With meals furn-
ished the rate was $3.45 per day dur
ing 1919; $3.10 for 1918 and $1.70 in
1910.
It is interesting to note that in the
nine northern counties the average
monthly wage of $62.77, including
board, is lower than in any other dis
trict of the state, while the rate per
day for harvest hands of $4.44 and
board is the highest. The western
district, composed of Adams and
Washington counties, pays the high
est monthly wage, $500 and board,
and the southeastern district, Pocatel-
10 east and south, pays the lowest
daily wage, $3.77 and board.

working constantly till the tract is
fully developed, adding others later
as the production will keep them go
ing. These wells will be from 100
to 1900 feet deep. The oil formation
in this field is compact, and gives up
its oil slowly. The settled production
of its wells is from to "a barrels
a day, and the life of the field is
estimated at from 20 to 40 years.
Wells that have been pumped for II
years show no decrease This oil is
now selling at the wells at $2.75
barrel, an increase of half a dollar in
two months The price is expected
to go to $500 any day. When this
tract is fully developed we expect to
pay fifty per cent or better for
twenty to forty years. Of course this
is not as big as in the gusher fields,
but it is permanent.
