gain Irrigated farms require much
work in the way of cultivation after
irrigation just as you would after
heavy rain, to keep the ground soft.
Our land needs humus, a few green
crops plowed under. You can't afford
this now but under irrigation your 3rd
crop of clover or alfalfa could be
plowed under.
at is hardly worth while to say
what this will mean to the city as in
time families will be on every five ac-
re tract and thousands of dollars will
be brought to this community through
the cooperative selling agencies that
will develope. such as the Spokane
Fruit Growers Association.
"In the process of organization the
first step is to petition the County
Commissioners to form the district, the
said petition to be accompanied by
map of the proposed district showing
the land embraced, the owners, the
location of the plant and the pipe lines
and laterals, etc; then an election IS
called and the proposition is voted up
on by those in the proposed district.
II requires a two-thirds vote to put the
plan into effect: not less than three
or more than seven commissioners,
elected at this same time, handle the
matter for the district from that time

BASKET BALL
TOURNAMENTS

The members of the Bonners Ferry
high school basketball team will leave
this week for Occur d Alene where
they will take part in a basketball
tournament on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, of teams of the Idaho Pan
handle, including teams from Sand

Similar district tournaments will be
held in all parts of the state and the
winners will go to Moscow in a few
weeks to play for the state champion
ship.
Coach Campbell, of the local team,
does not expect his team to carry off
the honors at Coeur Alene because
of the fact that it is and has been
handicapped because of having had 10
practice on a small floor, not nearly
regulation size. 1t is certain, how
ever, that the home team will give a
good account of itself and it is quite
possible that il will come out winner
This week Coach Campbell received
a letter from Cisco Bullivant, physical
director of the Spokane Amateur Ath-
! letic Club, stating that the Bonners
Ferry team has been picked to enter
the championship tournament to be
held in Spokane on March IL. IL, and
l13. Mr.. Bullivant writes: "The con
ditions are as follows: we are going to
limit the team to seven members, in
elusive. Of course, you can bring
more but you must do so at your own
expense. The expenses of all teams
will be paid from the gate receipts
any deficiencies will have to be made
up by the teams themselves"
! Coach Campbell has advised Mr..
Bullivant that the Bonners Ferry five
will be on hand for the tournament.
| Curtis Wallace, Ambrose Boileau
/ Teddy Kent. Clarence Myers, Andrews
and Welch will represent the Bonners
Ferry high school at Coeur Alene
and Edgar Charles will be one of the
team at Spokane.

either team at any time. The indi-
vidual stars were Curtice Wallace for
the juniors and Teddy Kent, for the
sophomores.

girls played a game of basketball on
Friday afternoon at the gym. This
game was marked by fast playing on

favor of the Reds

done rather for the purpose of inform
ing my friends in the political party
with which | affiliate that the wishes
of many of them are being acceded to
in this action.
Six months will ensue before the
convention which will nominate the
candidate for state office and in that
time matters of the most supreme inn
portance to Idaho and her people will
be before us. In these | hope to take
a part and expect to give my energies
to them and not to campaign for
office. Naturally it will accord me
but little time to give to political mat
ters.
IF members of the republican par
ty in their state convention select me
will stand squarely upon the admin
istration record. ! have had an op-
portunity to know without question
that the business of the state has been
conducted carefully and with a high
degree of efficiency by those placed
in charge. Let me make the positive
statement that our cabinet form of
government is a living, virile success.
Let me make the prediction that Idaho
will never change back to the worn
out, out-of-date system of the past Our
new ideas of state government may
| improve and may enlarge but the
principle of centralized responsibility
will remain"
Patch's Declaration.
Colonel Patch's announcement was
made through his home paper at Pay

"At the solicitation of former serv.
ice men, both in Idaho and nationally
and of those men and women who are

mer service men and women, I hav,
decided to become a candidate for tn,
nomination for United States senator

pret and represent the wishes of TIL
/ ex-service men and women and viev

to assist in the adoption of future mil

nation in years to come.
II trust that the people of Idaho vii
find on investigation that my educa

one strong earthquake shock was fol-

quake centered in Inglewood, a suburb

the quake there today was not violent,
show windows were broken and sew

HARDING MAKES BID
FOR PROGRESSIVES
tBy United PreSsJ

Marion, o., July 16.-As far as con-
sistent with his past record, Senator
Warren G. Harding will make the
strongest possible appeal to progress
sive votes, and this phase of the ma
tional campaign will feature his
speech of acceptance, it was stated
on competent authority today. Sena-
tor Hrding, it became known, is pre-
pared to champion progressive issues
and will not stand as a feactionary
or with the extreme conservatives of
his party.
Senator Harding reached his decis-
ion to bid strongly for the progress
sive vote soon after the Democratic
convention had nominated Governor
Cox and after the third party groups
became active in the conventions at
Chicago.
