American people pause from
their activities to pay them trib-
ute, together with the dead of

flowers upon the graves Of all
of our men who fell in tho
great fight. But wherever they
rest these men will be honored
by tho people of tho whole
country and Memorial day now
takes on a new significance
greater than in its inception.

John Redpath.

gested the "armfuls Of flowers" was
not forgotten by John Redpath. AS he
went about his work during the next
few days he thought Of it often, and
finally a beautiful plan grew in his
mind.
He would set apart day when all
the graves In the soldiers cemetery
would be decorated with flags and
flowers.
At that time Charleston was still I'M
der military rule and was governed by
Colonel Woodford Of the Union army.
John Redpath went to Colonel Wood
ford and told him about the plan, ask
ing him to appoint the day military
and civil holiday. The date decided
upon for the decoration was May l.,
and on that day over 10000 men,,
women and children were present at
memorial service, and then marched
to the cemetery, where the children
dropped flowers on the graves while
everyone sang patriotic songs.
+ Such was the first Decoration day.
. From that time on the custom Of
ecorating all the graves Of the SOL
diers on one day grew to be popular.
The custom of decorating the graves
of the dead soldiers did much to wipe
away the bitterness felt between the
people Of the North and South. Fran
els Miles Finch expressed just such
!. thought in his Decoration day poem,
which every child in school has read,
"The Blue and the Gray"
J. John Redpath lived to be an old
man, and saw the custom that he
founded become one Of the most pleas
ing and popular holidays. Later in
life he founded the Redpath Chautau-
qua bureau, which is still popular and
has been the means Of giving enter
tainment and education to thousands
and thousands of people.-Utica Globe:

Three years ago today
We raised our hands to heaven.
And on the rolls Of muster
Our names were thirty-seven.
There were just thousand bayonets.
And the swords were thirty-seven.
AS we took the oath Of service
With CUR right hands raised to heaven
O twas a gallant day
In memory still adored-
That day Of our sun-bright nuptials
With the goddess Of the sword!

LATAH COUNTY BEATS
NEZ PIERCE FOR AUTOS

That there are rs more automobile
licenses in Latah county than in Nez
Perez county is shown by the records
of the latter county published in the
Lewiston Tribune. Latah county had
1852 automobile licenses issued in
1919, and Nez Perez county, of which
Lewiston is the county seat, had but
1907, just rs short of Latah county's
record. Nez Perez county had 1862,
in 1918, as compared with 1869, in
Latah county. This county had 313
more cars in 1919 than in 1918, while
Lewiston had but 245 more in 1919
than in 1918. The Lewiston Tribune
does not give the makes .offthe cars,
but the weights upon which licenses
are issued. Cars weighing less than
1000 pounds pay a license fee of SIS
and the Tribune shows that there
were 718 of these light cars licensed
in that county, as compared with
755 weighing 1000 to 5000; and 95
weighing from 5000 to 1922 and 80
that weighed more than 1900 pounds

Dat smut costs the country more
than two hundred million dollars

farming has gone forever. 1t is.
therefore, our duty. as well as Jul
happy privilege, to be able to save
this much money and besides to grow
an infinitely greater yield.
Wherever there has been a farm
bureau organization and in many
places where no organization exists,
the systematic treatment of all seed
oats with formaldehyde is a big step
towards a hundred bushel yield. The
work is very simple ; three operations
only.
Spread the seed oats on a clean
floor; make a solution Of pound
Of formaldehyde, full strength, in
forty gallons of water and sprinkle
the oats until they are moist enough
to pack in the hand. This will take
a gallon of the solution to a bushel
=
and a half of oats. Shovel the oats
over and over to moisten every grain
and then shovel into a pile and cover
with clean grain sacks. Let the pile
stand two hours at least, but better
let it remain over night. Sow at once
or spread out the heap and dry, then
store in clean sacks until ready to
plant.
The pats will swell some. There

dehyde solution whether used for
covering or for storing. Also wash
out your grain drill with the solution.
This ought to be done every yeai

For Vocational TRAINING

Dean E. J. Iddings, head of the
experiment station and agricultural
college at the University of Idaho,
attended a meeting of the board of
federal vocational training for dis
trict No. ID, which includes the
northwestern states, at Seattle last
week. Heads of universities, col
leges and especially agricultural col
leges were called to meet with the
board. 1t developed that more than
5000 applications for vocational
training have been made by ex-
soldiers and that $50 have been as
signed and that the University of
Idaho has proportionately more than
any other school. There have been
127 assigned to agriculture and these
are the students SEM to Idaho, which
ranks high in this line of work. A
representative of the federal board is
to be stationed either at Pullman or

Shop Practice.

The man who knows the kinds of
shop practice will prevent delay in
the busy season in a great many
cases. If the tractor will do the
seeding in n half of the time it will
be a great asset to the farmer. If
he discards his horses and horse ma
chinery for the tractor and equip
ment for it, and then he is forced to
quit work during the busy season,
then the tractor becomes a liability.
Such things as brazing, soldering,
babbitting, making and tempering
tools are often useful in caring for
the tractor and keeping it running.
AS much work as possible will be
given in these lines at the Tractor
School, University of Idaho, January
18th to the Both.

 Now, the thing that had caused Chat terer to break off short as he started to call Peter Rabbit names was a memory The memory of the stranger in the Green Forest. that big cousin of his Rusty the Fox Squirrel whom he had met that morning. Yes. sir, Chatterer had suddenly remembered Rusty. Could it be that Rusty hadn't left the Green Forest after all? Chatterer had tried to frighten him by telling him of all the enemies of the Squirrel family who lived in the Green Forest. Rusty had seemed to be frightened and Chatterer had seen him start off: He hadn't given Rusty another thought since. Now the suspicion that perhaps, after all Rusty hadn't gone away had popped into his head. On the instant Chatterer had started back to find out

Chatterer the Red Squirrel didn't be- lieve Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel when the latter said that he hadn't touched one of those fat hickory nuts which had been taken from beneath a certain hickory tree which Chatterer claimed as his very own. But when Peter Rabbit spoke up and said that he had watched Happy Jack gathering chestnuts all afternoon Chatterer be- gan to think that he might be blaming the wrong one. He didn't want to think so. In the first place, he didn't want to admit that he was wrong. In the second place, he has no love for his cousin Happy Jack, and is always looking for cause fo'' a quarrel with him. z Chatterer made a face at Peter Rab- bit.

 Peter chuckled. It always tickles him to see Chatterer in a rage, for Chatter CT is such an excitab1e small person that he does funny things when he loses his temper.
 Probably those fat hickory nuts walked off themselves" said Peter and chuckled again.
 Chatterer's eyes snapped and he Jerked his little red tail so hard that it seemed to Peter that there was real danger that he would snap it off. You -you-you- Chatterer, and suddenly turned and started off through the tree tops as fast as he had come.

SENSATION CREATED HERE

Anniston, November 1O.-(Special.)- A mild sensation was created in An niston Wednesday morning by the dis coyery of a complete whisky making plant stored in the boiler room of the Kilby Car and Foundry company, to- gether with unmistakable evidence that the plant which the governor established and is one Of the chief stockholders has been the scene of the illicit manufacture of whisky at date not far removed.
 Presence and operation of still in the boiler room of the kilby plant was reported to Sheriff Parker a few weeks ago, and that officer took the matter up with officials of the company, who have gievn him the utmost cooperation in an effort to apprehend the prohibi- tion violators.
 A unique and successful plan for the manufacture of booze was disclosed by the sheriffs investigation Wednesday after he had found where the boilers of the Kilby company had been used to condense the beer and transform it into whisky by the simple method of a wooden barrel flake stand and trough into which 1he whisky poured from a worm attached to the barrel.
 The equipment through which the violators of the prohibition laws turned out their product at the Kilby plant was removed from beneath the build- ing Tuesday night by officials of the local plant, and proper report of the find made to the authorities Wednes day morning.
