good things to eat was the first

New Influenza Outbreak On Gen.
tral Ridge.

Eight well known ranchers OF
the Central Ridge district north
of Mohler were stricken with in
fluenza yesterday and fears are
entertained of further spread of
the malady in that section. Calls
for medical assistance from over
that way were urgent this morn
ing.
It is the impression that this
new appearance of the contagion
in the territory where it had been
pretty well stamped out originat-
ed at the Frank Senter farm auc-
ton sale, which brought a large
crowd of people together last
Monday at his place north of
Mohler. So far as can be ascer.
tanned, all the men stricken yes
terday were in attendance at this
sale.
A report from Peck early this
week indicated a return of the flu
at that point and the schools there
were closed on Monday, but yes
terday word came up from there
that conditions were not bad, only
a few mild cases being under
treatment.

COUNTY AGENT WADE
FILES RESIGNATION.
Administer Office Till Successor
Qualities Enter Seed Bus
mess at Lewiston. n.-Farm
Bureau Meets

The principal business Of
meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Lewis county Farm
Bureau at Ilo yesterday was con-
sideration of applications for the
office of County Farmer Agent,
to succeed A. Il. Wade, who has
rendered his resignation and in
tends to take the management Of
the Idaho Pure Seed Co., at Lew
iston as soon as a successor here
is found.
While there were several appli-
cations for this county job, no
selection was made at yesterdays
meeting and a recess was taken
to permit the gathering of further
information on the qualifications
Of the applicants. Mr.. Wade has
conducted this office very salts
factor'ily through the past five
years, his efforts having been the
means Of saving many thousands
of dollars to Lewis county farm
ers as well as bringing farm con-
ditions in the territory under his
jurisdiction far above what they
otherwise would have been. One
of the most far-reaching benefits
to the county has been his effec-
tive work on the control and elm
'ination Of smut in wheat. Where
his ideas are followed it is now
found the smut trouble can be
largely done away with. 1t has
been noticeable the past two years
that, while smut explosions and
other difficulties incident to this
wheat pest have been more or less
common in neighor counties, Lew
is county has suffered but little
therefrom. 1t will take a man of
real ability to handle the job as
Mr.. Wade leaves it hereto hold
it up to the point it has reached,
and the Farm Bureau is, there
fore, taking due care in making
it's selection.

Bring Car Field Pea Seed.

Mr.. Wade will 60 to Moscow
next week to take part in the
conference of workers in the Ida
no University farm extension de-
partment, and while there he
plans to procure a car load Of
seed peas for use in this county,
where farmers are planning on
seeding considerable summer fal-
low land to this crop. Recent ex-
periments have proven the pea to
be profitable field crop for this
section, and it is believed the
larger use that is being made of
them this year will lead to their
general application to what would
otherwise be summer fallow land
all over the prairie. This is an
other development made through
the office Of our County Agent.

Settle On Culdesac- Prairie Road

A permanent roadway west o.
Chesley across the Indian timber
reserve land leading to Culdesac
has been agreed upon, the settlers
and Jesse Pail, the Indian govern
ment ranger, having decided on
the road site which will be ap-
proved by the department at
Washington and developed as the
main road between the lower Cul-
desac country and the different
sections Of this upper country. The
road will branch off at Chesley
to the Clifford sections while the
main road will come on to Reu-
bens over the new line which was
established last year between Reu-
bens and Chesley. The new lire
follows the water grade west OF
Chesley partly across the reserve
section and leads to the middle OF
the section line to the south and
then goes west by the Geo. Banks
farm and north by the Kamphaus
place to the old trail leading TO
the head of the grade. j. w.
Nolan presented the matter to the
county commissioners at Lewis
ton Tuesday and they were fully
in accord with the plans, and will
send up the county surveyor next
Tuesday evening, who with the
ranger and settlers will establish
the permanent road line across
the timber reserve on an easy
grade and settle a matter that has
been troublesome for the past 25
years.-Reubens Citizen.

Nezperce Has Four Miles Con-
crete Sidewalk.

1t seems but a short time ago
that this town was still stumbling
along on board sidewalks, which
answer very well for keeping one
out of the mud, but certainly play
havoc with a good disposition and
shoes. Now we boast four miles
Of concrete walks, most of which
have been laid since the war
prices became effective. Last
season Contractor Harry Mitch
ell put in $3.50 lineal feet Of con-
crete pavement here, and the
prospect is good for consider
able extension during the coming
summer.
To communities convenient to
ample supplies of sand and gravel
these figures sound modest, but
when it is taken into considera-
ton that our concrete and sand
must be imported from as far
away as Lewiston, and that the
only ingredient our locality af-
fords for the pavement is crushed
rock, the improvement will be
considered worthy of boasting of.

PERMITS FOR DIGGING.
Would Put Public Grounds Control

Secretary Baker has recommended
to Congress the passage of a bill
which would authorize the chief of

trict of underground ducts. conduit
wires and pipes. and for the neces-
Sary manholeS and other accessories
for gas, telephones. telegraph and
electric and water services.
In his letter of recommendation to
Speaker Gillett. Secretary Baker says:
Authority to grant permits of the
kind has been submitted to the Com
mi sSioners of the District Of Colum-
bfa, as far as affect street spaces un-
der their control, but if the proposed
installation encounters in it's course

act Of July 1, 1898. detour must be
made or the interested parties must
be referred to Congress for the neces-
sary authority, since the powers com
mitted to the chief of engineers are
held not to be sufficient to allow him
to grant such privileges.
In my judgment a law placing the
matter within his discretion will be
Of advantage both to public and pri-
