GIVES AN OBJECT LESSON

From the report submitted to the
public in this newspaper by thu
county agricultural agent, it appears
that Frank Benscoter, live wire
farmer of the Kendrick section, took
time by the forelock and halted the
labor wasted on mixed seed wheat.
He determined to find something out
of the polyglot field that spoke in
so many languages to him to see If
he could play the game of the sur
vival of the fittest. He paid par
ticular attention to the Jenkins club
heads and his seed selection turned
out we'll. From year to year from a
little more than a bushel in the first
planting he arrived to a 35 acre field
from the original seed and has con-
tinued to select and evolute until he
attracted the attention of the state
seed commissioner. His seed became
famous and while deal of it was
sold and planted in Latah county
several lots went to other counties
and other states. Here is the object
lesson.
1t appears from the list in the Of
flee of the city clerk that few OBJ
jections were raised against the lay
ing of new sidewalks. The few that
did object were overruled by the de-
cision of a number of wise judges
commonly known as their honors of
the city administration. The program
is wide one, and judging by the
work accomplished by the city engi-
neer and his assistants quite a terri
tory will come under the head of the
city beautiful. The approaches to the
county court house are being con-
sidered in this connection. Mean
while it is a gratifying circumstance
that the fair grounds now boasts of I
nearby attraction in the shape of
new sidewalks.
