w. b. TEETER THINKS
EA.. IDAHO CAN GROW CORN

OF course a Nebraska or Iowa man
may laugh when we say that there is
a big corn field over at the Teeter
ranch that is one of the best in Id
aho. But when we consider that Id
aho can grow so many things else in
the way of fruit, that they can't, We
do not need to worry.
When. young man, in Iowa, Mr..
Teeter frequently husked his 100
bushels which Is a good days work
even in one of those big cornfields,
where the sideboards OF the wagon
are bombared with big yellow and
white ears and where it is necessary
to carry an extra pair of gloves and
a husking peg, to change to at the
end of the row, on account of their
wearing out. 4
A few years ago Mr. Teeter was one
of the first to decide that Idaho
could raise corn and he planted sew
eral acres to try out the idea. People
had said that the nights were too cold
and that the frost would come too
early in the fall for the corn to mat
ure. For several seasons, however,
MIR. Teeter has grown well-mayured
ears, and notwithstanding the fact
that this year the frost came early,
the corn was so good that it was left
in the field, instead of being cut for
ensilage. Mr.. Teeter has sold sew
eral loads to his neighbors at ST. a
hundred pounds and the field of 20
acres compares very favorably with
those seen in Iowa and Nebraska both
| for quality of ears and yield. The
corn is of the yellow dent variety.
| Mr.. Teeter's ranch of 80 acres is on
/ Five Mile, four miles southeast of
/ Meridian, and is one of the show
places of the neighborhood. During
! the score of years Mr.. and Mrs.
/ Teeter have been on the place they
have put in money and much hard
work and they are amply repaid for
their efforts by having a home that
is the envy of every person who has
dreamed of an attractive farm home,
away from the cares and nervous
exactions of life in the city.
Mr.. and Mrs. Teeter have raised a
fine family of boys and girls who are
an honor to them, and the worthy
couple now plan to take life little
more easy, especially as Mrs. Teeter's
health is not as good as it was. 1t is
planned to handle smaller crop and
in other ways to lessen the farm work
and this will no doubt help the lady
in securing better l.ealth, which her
legion of friends all hope will be the
case.
Mr.. Teeter says he has been on the
farm since small boy and that Sc
years is long enough to entitle one
to vacation. We can hardly imagine
one of Mr.. Teeter's temperament re
firing from active work, as the farm
itself gives evidence of continuous
labor, every day of the year, which
is habit he cannot easily lay aside

Know the Poison Ivy and Avoid 1t

The poison ivy is found in many places in Connecticut, along road sides, on stone walls, in fields, and in fact it adapts itself and f1ourishes in almost any soil. It is often over looked as it intermingles with other shrubbery and the unsuspecting in- dividual handles it and is poisoned. The symptoms appear from a few few hours to four or five days after contact with the ivy vines. The ivy is more poisonous in the spring and summer when the acrid juice of the plant is most abundant.
 The leaves of all forms of poison ivy are in threes, each leaf stalk bearing three leaflets. The foliage is beautiful red early in the spring, becoming green in summer and in the autumn turns to scarlet and orange shades. The Virginia creeper is found in localities where ivy grows and although it is harmless, it is of ten mistaken for the poisonous vari- ety. The Virginia creeper is easily distinguishable from poison ivy for each leaf stalk bears from three to five leaflets instead of three only, as in the case of the ivy vine. In addi- tion, the creeper, being of the grape family, bears small blue inedible berries and has numerous tendrils.

 It is of prime importance for the public welfare that we do this just now. The great need of the United States Government in carrying to a successful conclusion a sufficient re- construction program is the additional capital which will accrue from the savings of the people.

 You have my best wishes for con- tinwed success in this work. Very truly yours,
