NATIONS BIRTHDAY
by
Duncan NJ. Smith

Dy
Duncan NJ. Smith
All hail the day we celebrate
From early in the morning
Until when dark has closed around
The midnight bell gives warning.
We celebrate till We are worn
In body, mind and pocket,
The frecracker gaily shoot
And send aloft the rocket.
The day on which our fathers signed
The thrilling Declaration
And gave unto the waiting world
A pretty, brand-new nation.
The day we notified John Bull
That stamp and tea-tax CRATER,
That we would run our little show
Without his aid hereafter.
The day we launched the ship of state
With noisy speechifying
The forces of the mother land
In stringent tones defying,
And fully one and twenty
And what we'd do to anyone
Directing, would be plenty.
Then let the voice we lift be not
Enfeebled or half hearted,
Show we appreciate the men
Who got this business started
And let us raise aloft the flag
With starry emblem clustered
For this is one of those rare days
That cuts a lot of mustard.

Knew All About Caruso.

A musician brings a pleasant story
from New York regarding Enrico Ca
russo, at whose recovery from Sc
we're illness recently the whole world
rejoiced.
A gentleman was discussing the Ill
ness of the great tenor with friend,
his small son being present.
"Caruso is certainly sick man." he
said.
The child's countenance frightened;
the light of knowledge shone in his
eyes.
"Why, Caruso isn't a mani" he re-
proved. Hes photograph record"

WOMEN'S CLUBS OF IDAHO

The way Of women's clubs OF
Idaho are helping Gooding college
is making some of the mere men for.
get their thought that pink tea
is about the biggest thing "the dear
girls" can finance and organize with.
out male assistance.
Just yesterday President G. w
Tenney received a fine Arbor Vitea
with a statement that choice col
lection of roses was to follow as a
gift from the Wayside club of Kim
berly. A short time ago substantial
checks were received from the
Country club of Twin Falls and the
Woman's club of Filler.
For all the second semester of this
year, the Gooding chapter of the
daughters of the American revolution
has paid the tuition fees of four
worthy young women who are work
ing their way thru.> Last year the
G. H. club did the same thing for a
Bull girl, who could not have at
tended school without this aid. The
Sorosis club Of Gooding has also as
sisted by advertising, visiting and
other methods, while just last week
seventy-five delegates to the P. E. o.
state convention visited the college
and took charge of the devotional
exercises for the day.
Besides the official cooperation
with these clubs have so freely given,
their individual members have also
taken an important part in the up
building of this popular young
school.
Some have canned fruit, collected
vegetables, given books for the
library, furnished speciments for the
museum, or donated butter, eggs and
meat while others have sent in names
of prospective students, distributed
literature or delivered addresses at
church and other public gatherings
to tell just what Gooding college al
ready means to the young men and
women of the intermountain empire.

FARM BUREAU MEETINGS

The meetings which are being held
by the farm bureau over the county,
in regard to the control of potato
disease affecting the industry in this
section, are proving very successful.
The attendance is large, varying
from fifty to 100 at each meeting,
and the interest that is being shown
makes it certain that definite results
will be derived from this work.
There has been considerable un-
easiness among the potato growers
because Of the danger that is con-
fronting the industry with the pres
ent disease. But in every meeting
held fifteen to twenty potato grow
ers have shown their willingness to
start seed plots with clean seed on
clean ground with the ultimate aim
in view of building up and producing
a disease free potato.
The majority of the potato grow
ers are dipping their potatoes in cor
rosive sublimate and with the care
that is being. taken in this respect
there is no question but what the
foundation is already laid for i'm
Droving the industry in the county
and eliminating the disease that now
exists.
On account Of the efforts that are
being made by the majority of the
potato growers to overcome the dis
ease the potato crop in Bingham
county this year should excel all
other years, especially in regard to
the quality of potatoes produced and
their freeness from disease.
The work of the farm bureau this
summer will be confined almost en-
tirly to work among the potato grow
ers, visiting fields and seed plots
with the idea of rendering every aid
possible towards improving the in
dustry.

PROFESSION Is RISING

An exchange says: Newspaper
people are coming to the front. A
newspaper man is president; a news
paper man has been made chief OF
police of the city of Boise; a news
paper woman has been elected mayor
of town, and with our colleges be-
ing filled with women specializing on
journalism, the outlook for the ''pro-
fession" is Frightening"
And we might add: With the price
the price of print and wages still
staying high, and the volume of ad-
vertising running low, a big fight on
for the shortening of working hours
and scarcely anybody learning the
printing trades, people might better
be filing current copies of newspapers
to re-read in the days of the future
when newspapers will be hunted up
as souvenirs rather than graded up
to start the fires with.

DIR. T.. T. ALLEN WILL
SPEAK AT COMMERCIAL CLUB

Few men are as component and
as able to tell the tragic and thrilling
story Of the death-ridden and terror
haunted Near East as the DR.. e. T.

of Christ and humanity; few indeed,

incessant maddening perils that dog

For thirteen years he toiled for the
uplift, education and relief of the
oppressed peoples suffering and

murderous dagger of the Moham-
medans.

lief, he chung steadfast to his pur-

and girls from the lustful clutches

DR.. Allen was in the midst of his
great work at Urumia during the
famine and the siege by the Turks,
when hunger-crazed mothers ate
their own babies, and when the
bodies Of starvation's victims were
dug from their graves for food.
For many months he was almost
daily face to face with death at the
hands of the Mohamm edans, the en-
emies of all Christiandom; his mar
row escapes were many and intensely
thrilling. Once he was saved after
the Turks had built a gallows for his

country, in many places Of a volcanic
ash as light as flour. As fast as cuts
are opened up and fills made in this
light soil the wind whips out the fill
slopes and sand dunes creep into rock
cuts, completely blocking the road.
OIL is the only agency vet found to
stop the trouble. The equipment used
to spray the crude oil consists Of two
supply tanks, or drums, in which the
oil is carried from the storage tank
at the railway siding, and a tractor,
which draws the oiling rig and sup
plies the steam through hose to the
compressor tank, which is carried on
a trailer. The oil is heated by the
steam and forced through hose with
a nozzle consisting of half-inch pipe.
The steam atomizes the oil and sends
1t in a fine spray for 100 feet or more,
depending on whether the spray is
projected in the direction of the wind
or against 1t. For obvious reasons.
spraying is usually carried on in the
direction of the wind.
Where sufficient oil is used. this
means of controlling the sand dunes
is very effective, and it is believed
that the cost will not be excessive
though exact figures are not obtain
able at this time.
