Bingham county at the Southeastern
Idaho and Boise State fairs, this
section will be called upon to fur
nish seed samples for both the State
and International seed shows.
The International Hay and Grain
show will be held at Chicago Nov
ember 26 to December 3, 1921. 1t

the products and regions specialize
ing in grains and seed will be indi-
Gated on the map with accompany
ing streamers to the displayed pro-
duct
Idaho is not behind the times in
production of pure seed and the adj
vertising gained will more than be
worth the effort. Also the awards
will indicate to us, in measure, our
success as compared with other
states and other regions.
The amount of samples desired
from Bingham county is larger than
from any other county of the state,
showing that we have the material
here. The samples desired from US
are as follows.
Alfalfa seed, l peck, ten samples,
we'll cleaned (hand picked) for dis
play
Idamine Oats, l peck, five hand
picked samples, five samples for
display.
TreBi Barley. l peck, three sam
pies, hand picked. Three samples
for display.
Dicklow Wheat, l peck, two sam
pies hand picked. Three samples
for display.
Alsike Glover, two samples.
Prizes on samples run from one
to forty dollars so exhibitors will be
we'll repaid for their work if prizes
are taken.
Duplicates of the above list can
be prepared at the same time for the
State Seed show which will be held
at Idaho Falls in January, 1922.
All samples for the international

vember 10. Help advertise your
community and county by preparing

SEED POTATOES

During the past few years the ma
jority OF farmers have allowed their
seed stock to run down, result of
planting Gull potatoes where the
very best should have been kept for
seed. This year nearly all of the
farmers in Bingham county have
expressed their determination to
plant larger potatoes especially se-
lected for seed and to get away
from the use of culls.
Like produces like in plant life
just as it does in animal life so that
when We plant culls we can expect
to harvest culls in return. We
must remember, however, that a
potato cutting does not represent
the individual potato but the hill
from which that potato comes.
Therefore the best growers are not
selecting out of the bin but are go
ing through their fields before har-
vest and picking out the best
growthy vines with two to three
sprouts and digging those hills with
a shovel. The desirable hills are
casked by themselves AMI kept for
a seed plot for the following year.
Some men watch other growers
during the summer and huy few
by side with their own selections
and in case the boughten seed turns
out better that seed is increased and
used over their commercial fields.
If you need about seventy-five
sacks of potatoes select a half acre
plot broken up from alfalfl and
plant your best selected seed there.
out al small plants and any that
show signs of disease. During the
summer rogue again before the tub
err forms and once again before the
vines go down. On the last rogue
ing the tubers from diseased hills
should be taken off the field to pre-
vent mixing with good seed at dig
ging time.
If this work has been properly
done all small and weak hills and
diseased POTATOES have been removed
SO what remains should be clean and
good yielding. Before digging, four
or five hill selected sacks should 'be
taken out with the shovel to be used
on a new seed plot the following
year. What remains in the field
can safely be used for seed over
the commercial acres.
With this method the best out OF
the best are kept for seed plot and
next best used in producing high
yielding, disease free, marketable
potato. Your county agent will as
sist you in working out the details
of this plan by carrying on demon
STATIONS in the various neighbor-
hoods over the various sections.
Plan on getting a few sacks of high
yielding, disease free potatoes true
to type for your seed plot This fall
is the time to get this seed. The
County Agent will make recommen-
dations of available seed in the near
future.
The future of this section depends
upon your success as a farmer.

piece of 3S inch iron rod. protrud-
ing about twelve inches, and blunt

ing hard soils. BY forcing down the
iron rod near gopher workings, or
a foot or two back of fresh mounds,

point breaks into it. The blunt

carefully to enlarge the hole, bait

the probe hole closed One soon he

and a man can treat 800 to 500
gopher workings in a day. Bait need
be placed at only two points in each

which is usually the home of a sin
gle gopher. Experience has shown
that bats placed fairly In the open
runs invariably kill the gophers.
-, The method has found great favor
wherever introduced.
Do not expect to get all the go
piers by one treatment, three or

Men look to the East for the dawn ng things,
For the light of the rising sun;
But they look to the West to the or imson West
For things that done, are do ne!
lne eastward sun is new-made no pc from the
Dark of the night distilled;
But the westward is a sunset sun,
Is the sun of hope fulfilled!
So out of the East they have always come,
The cradle that the birth
OF all of the heart-warm hopes of man
And of all of the hopes of earth.
For out of the East Christ arose.
And out of the East there CLEAN ed,
The dearest dream and the clearest dream,
That ever prophet dreamed.
Yea, into the waiting West they go
With the dream-child of the Eas t,
And find the hopes that they hope of old
Are hundred fold increased.
For there in the East we dream our dreams
OF the things we hope to do,
And here in the West, the crimson West,
The dreams of the East come true!

SENATOR BIRD
DEFENDS ROOD
LOCAL ATTORNEY APPEARS
AT HEARING BEFORE
GOV. BLAINE

Sheriff Rodd of Rhinelander. who
held Christ a prisoner until his term
was ended, as directed by Judge A.
H. Reid, was represented at the hear
ing before Governor Blaine Tuesd"v
by Senator c. B. Bird, of this city,
R. B. Goggins of wisconsin Rapids,
and c. F. Smith, of Rhinelander. The
governors decision has not yet been
announced.
"Our contention is two-fold," Sen.
Bird said. First, that the executive
order was made without warrant of
law, so that the defendant was justi-
fed in disregarding it; second, that,
whether he was justified or not, he did
in fact. choose between two conflict
ing orders, in good faith, and cam
not he held responsible. Ii
the governor has no power to pardon,
and if such a pardon is issued the
sheriff is compelled to disregard it,
because he must make a return that
the pardon was valid"
Senator Bird made clear the pur-
poses of the defense at the start when
he said he was told at the previous
hearing that the governor had caused
only certain of the statements to be
placed in the official record. He ex-
planned the presence of an extra stem
ographer by saying that the defense
desired complete record of every
thing that was said or done.
"We are satisfied to try this case
on it's merits, Senator Bird answered
the governor when the latter asked
if his attitude required the repudia
ton of everything done. 81 have not
passed on it. If the sheriff ought to
be removed, he ought to go, though
every voter should petition against it;
and if he ought not to be removed,
he ought to stay, though every voter
should petition for his removal"

OnThankSgiving we were remem-
