Idaho Professor
Writes Treatise on
Public Property

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, MOS
COW.-Nisions of new opportunities
for man to have trouble with his
wife are opened up by reading Of a
paper, Community Property in Pub
lie Lands" by Prof, Alvin E. Evans
of the University of Idaho law school
appearing in the current issue of the
California Law Review. Professor
Evans discusses the following types
of cases:
1. A married man makes entry
upon public land and the martial
relation continues until after final
proof is made or patent issues.
2. A married man makes entry
and the wife dies or is divorced be-
fore final proof.
8. A married man makes entry,
but dies before the period Of resi-
dence is completed.
A. A single man or woman makes
entry and afterward marries.
s. Husband and wife settle upon
unsurveyed public land not open to
entry, the statute giving actual set
tiers a preference.
This bag of riddles is further COM
plicated by two or three exceptions
or contingencies in several cases.
Professor Evans finds Important in
consistencies in court decisions, and
comes to the conclusion that "a fail
ure to make the necessary distinc-
tiOns> is partly responsible for the
confusion that has resulted"

BIG CELEBRATION
ON SELLERS CREEK
Pioneer Day Will Be
Observed in Real
Pioneer Style

All the Willow creek country is to
assemble on Monday the twenty-fifth
at James Christensen's ranch on Sell
lers creek thirty-four miles from
Blackfoot for picnic and jolly good
time, making day of it. 1t is up in
the stock country where the cowboy
is king and the stockmen and rough
riders will be there with the horses
that jump high and light hard.
There will be boating on the reser-
voir and fun among the pines and the
quaking aspen trees.
People in the valley, who want to
see the upper valley and get the
breath of the range with it's sod and
brush, Whit of the breezes from
the creeks and bogs and beaver dams
with water cress and peppermint and
wild strawberries hiding in the high
slopes, should get the jitney in good
order with clean spark plugs and
pulling power up to normal and make
day of it. Take plenty of muc-a-
muc in your baskets, go in by one
road and out by the other and make
a great circuit and be glad. Every
body up there is going to be glad to
see you and will be glad you were
at the seeing.
Go in via Wolverine If you like and
come out via the road leading over
the ridge to Ammon or Idaho Falls.
The ride thru the canyon will be a
treat, the grades will be a little
sleeper as you near the summit, and
if you have Ford or one with equal
pulling power you may have to do a
little pushing on two or three of the
steepest grades, but you will get up
all right because everybody gets up
that has their car in good working
condition and somebody to jump out
and push in pinch. If you 60 in by
the other road and come back via
Wolverine the climbing will not be
quite so steep. No matter which way
you go, take plenty Of time to climb
the hills. Don't get in hurry and
heat your engine. Stop and put in
cool water at an occasional creek
crossing while the folks enjoy the
scenery, keep the old machine cool
and be content to plug along on low
gear till you get on top, and then
keep it in low gear or intermediate
on all the steep places coming down.
Don't try to hold 1t with your breaks

IRRIGATED CROPS
ADVANCE RAPIDLY
Weather is Warm and
Dry Thruout
the State

BOISE, Idaho.-The weekly sum-
mary of weather and crop conditions
in Idaho for the week ending Tues
day, July 12, by the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, Charles F..
Marvin, chief, shows that the week
was very warm and dry generally
thruout the state. In the southern
counties it was the warmest week Of
the summer so far and temperatures
of 100 degrees or more were re-
corded in many localities. There was
a high percentage of sunshine. Hot
winds occurred in a few localities,
but for the most part the week was
calm. s#
1t was very favorable week for
the rapid advance of crops, particu-
larly in the irrigated districts where
all vegetation made good growth; in
the dry farm sections the lack of rain
is beginning to be felt and altho
crops continued to progress they
would be. much benefited by a good
rain. Pastures and ranges are dry
ing in exposed places. Range feed,

calities and cattle and sheep are
thriving for the most part, but in
some of the northern counties stock
are being so pestered by mosquitoes
and flies that they are losing flesh.
1t was good corn weather and that
crop made rapid strides. Beets are
growing fast and are in good shape
mostly, but in few districts some Of
the beet pests have made their ap-
pearance.
The weather was ideal for harvest
ing hay and grain which is the lead
ing activity on most farms at this
time. The second cutting Of alfalfa
is getting under way in the earlier
districts; timothy harvest is becom-
ing general winter wheat harvest is
spreading rapidly into the later dis
tricts. All these crops are reported
as yielding we'll and are being Sc
cured in excellent condition. Early
potato harvest is on. There is a
heavy crop, but growers are much
disappointed in the prices being
offered.

Of the northwest, now entering his
ninety-second year, to have him de-
liver an address at the ceremonies
at old Fort Hall commemorating the

record of Nathanial Wyeth. i,
Negotiations with Mr.. Meeker are
being taken up by DR.. Minnie
Howard, secretary of the Wyeth
chapter, Daughters of the American
Revolution, who are supporting the
historical celebration at the old fort
site. In 1916 Mr.. Meeker, then a
gray-haired and aged man, made his
last trip thru southern Idaho in his
famous prairie schooner.
1t was on this trip that he
definitely located, with the assistance
of Fort Hall Indians and pioneers of
Bannock county, the exact site of
the old fort, which he considered to
be the most important point on the
whole Oregon trail.

world over are expected at the 1921
show which will be staged here Sep
tember %, % and "a.
Fast relay strings, wild young
steers and bucking "bronks" whose
hasty temper and uncertain DISPOSE
tion will give the cowboys chance
to show their skill in the bucking
contests, are promised for the great
outdoor drama. The steer bulldog
ging gives indication Of being most
spectacular event, for Ray McCarrol
and Frank McCarrol, two brothers,
are vieing for the championship.
Frank McCarroll recently broke all
records when he bulldogged in 3-5
seconds, but his brother, Ray, sue
ceeded a few days ago in clipping
two-fifths of second off this time.
One of the features of the show
is the speed with which events are
given. The big panorama Of events
begins each day exactly at 1.30 p. M,
and continues without pause during
the afternoon. Never is the slogan
Something Doing Every Minute"
better exemplified than at the round
up.
Among the 1921 roundup visitors
this year will be w. B. Brown, ma
tionally known illustrator of Boston,
Mass. He expects to find many sub
jects for drawings at the show. An
other visitor will be DR.. George
Black, prominent physician of White
Plains, New York.
Roundup devotees, new and old,
will be interested in the announce
ment that Colonel Charles Yelling
ton Frulong's book, "Let 'er Buck"
is now on the press. 1t Is the official
roundup book and its sale is spon-
sored by the roundup association.
The book, which contains 200 pages,
is profusely illustrated with fifty re-
productions Of roundup photo
graphs. 1t was recently reviewed in
the New York Times.

for Finances is
Proving Successful

POCATELLO, Idaho.-Excellent
results are occurring from the finan-
cial drive instituted by the Idaho
Reclamation association, according
to the statement issued by w. F.

sociation members early in June, all
of the counties in the Snake river

money is now being paid and the
spirit of cooperation is gratifying.
He also stated that negotiations with
Guy Flenner, managing director Of
the association, succeeding Major
Reed, would be taken up next week
by the special notification committee.
Mr.. Flenner is in Seattle and has
only known of his selection thru the
press.
C. B. Ross, chairman Of the COM
mittee to wait upon Mr.. Flenner and
arrange details, left Sunday for Can
yon county. Upon the return of Mr..
Flenner to Boise he will join F. F.
johnson of Boise and w. H. Gibson
of Mountain Home, the other two
members of the committee. Presi-
dent Howard stated that three more
counties, Ada, Minidoka and Madi-
son had paid half of their quotas
since the general meeting and that
Twin Falls county commissioners had
voted the entire apportionment for
that county, half Of which would be

Inspection Made
of Grim mAlfalfa
At Springfield

B. F. Sheehan, state seed commits
.sioner, spent the last week in Bing-
ham county inspecting the Grimm
alfalfa seed fields in Sterling, Spring
field and Aberdeen. Mr.. Sheehan
was accompanied on his field inspec-
tion work by the board Of directors
of the Idaho Grimm Alfalfa Seed
Growers association, George A. Line,
L. C. Aicher, I. N. Meyer, H. K. Wiley
and r R. Davis and E. w. Stephens,
county agent.
Mr.. Sheehan visited 40 fields and
was very much pleased with the con-
dition in which he found them. The
fields on the whole are in excellent
condition, free from noxious weeds.
and he predicts an unusually good
crop of Grimm Alfalfa seed in the
Sterling and Aberdeen sections.
The work of the alfalfa weevil was
noticeable in some sections, but due
to the preventative measures carried
on by the growers in spraying for
the control of the weevil the damage
done by this part is cut to the mini
mum.
During Mr.. Sheehan's visit here he
also attended meeting of the board
of directors Of the Grimm Alfalfa
Seed Growers association.

Excursion Planned
for Potato Growers
of Bingham County

The Bingham county farm bureau
is arranging an excursion for men
interested in growing certified pO-
tatoes to visit Fremont county. The
trip is planned for August 5, leav-
ing here early in the morning so as

Anthony in the evening. The Fre-
mont county farm bureau and the st.
Anthony Commercial club have ar
ranged an entertainment for the

should notify the farm bureau as it
will be necessary for the people in
Fremont county to know how many
will make the trip in order to make
their arrangements for housing and

Woman Saves Boy
From Drowning In
Port Neuf River

POCATELLO, Idaho. Victor
Worth, 5-year old boy, owes his life
to Mrs. George Bowers, who Friday
evening rescued him from the treach-
erous waters of the Portneuf river.
The boy, in company with several
other lads, was in swimming below
the Custer street bridge. AS dusk
began to fall the other boys climbed
out and dressed.
Victor remained in the cold water
too long and was in the clutches of
current headed for midstream,
when his plight was noticed by Mrs.
Bowers. She plunged into the water,
battled her way to the lad and
brought him to shore.
Considerable work was required
to restore breathing, as the lungs
had filled with water.

FOREST RANGERS
SET GOOD EXAMPLE
Put Ban on Smokes
During Fire
a Season

Recognizing the danger of forest
fires from burning tobacco even when
used by forest officers, District
Forester r. H. Rutledge. has called
upon the field workers of the Inter-
mountain national forests to volun-
tarily refrain from smoking during
the next few months of high fire
hazard except in camp and places Of
regular habitation or in barren and
other places where there is positively
no fire danger.
In response to the call every
smoker in the service is writing his
immediate superior agreeing to cut
out the smokes in the woods until
the fall rains send the fire season Of
1921 into the "closed" section of the
records.
"The forest ranger recognizes" I"
says District Forester Rutledge,
"that accidents will happen and that
even the most care full man has
lapses. Further it is, of course, the
plain duty Of the forest officer to do
everything within his power by ex-
ample, education and otherwise to
eliminate the serious hazard which
results from careless smokers in the
forests. A large body of forest Of
ficers doing without their smokes for
the good of the cause should be a
patent factor in driving home the
idea of care with fire both to the gen.
eral public and to the thousands Of
individuals who come in contact with
the rangers on the job" said Mr..
Rutledge.
"The call for voluntary action on
the part of field men left 1t up to the
forest supervisors to absolutely pro-
hibit smoking by their men during
the fire season, but the rush of vol
unteers has proved that such action
will in no case be necessary"
To date the fire season in the in
termountain forests has been favor
able. The period Of high hazard is
now here, however, and forest Of
ficers indicate. that nothing will be
left undone in education, example, or
strict enforcement of the fire laws
and regulations to eliminate the man
made fire from the forests.

MORALS OF YOUTH
GOVERNORS TOPIC
Fathers and Mothers In
dulging in Luxury
Forget Duties

MOSCOW, Ida.-Immorality and
disease are increasing among boys
and girls of Idaho and every state in
the Union, Governor D. w. Davis told
summer school students in an assem-
bly, address here.
Fathers and mothers are indulg-
ing in pleasure and LUXURY" he
said, "and forgetting their duties in
the home. The industrial school and
penitentiary are filling up and the
insane asylums have more patients
than ever before.
"The youth of our land have gone
beyond the restraints of fathers and
mothers in many homes. The blame
is laid at the doors of the high
schools, but much that takes place
happens outside the schools. The
schools must have the cooperation
of the homes, and the homes must
have the cooperation of your teach
erS.
Tells of Disease
II could tell you of cases of dis
ease in schools in this state that
would make you shudder. And l
have talked with dozen governors
and find that the things are on the
increase in every state. If, any of
you doubt these things, dbme to
Boise and inquire at the department
of public welfare, and we will show
you 1000 records from the replies of
physicians to whom we have sent
inquiries.
II am not fighting the picture
shows, but l am fighting the pictures
that they show" the governor ex-
claimed, at which there was an in
stant response Of applause from the
teachers.
"Any boy can go to the picture
show seven nights in the week and
find out how to commit any crime he
wishes to commit, and any girl can
go to the show and learn how to
make any advance she desires to
make.
"The automobile is chargeable
with a lot Of things about which ]
am talking.
Fathers and mothers must get
the old fashioned idea of parenthood.
Children must get the idea-they
must learn 1t in school--that father
and mother are the best friends they
ever had.
"The foundation on which this
government is built is the home. If
this home is kept pure the future
of the government is secure. .
