BINGHAM COUNTY
ASKED TO EXHIBIT
Will Have Displays at
lnternatioal and
State Shows

Owing to our success at the Boise
state fair, Mr.. Allison state agronom-
list, has asked Bingham county to
furnish a large number of seed
samples for the International Hay
and Grain show to be held at Chicago
November 26 to December 3, 1921.
The quality of our grains are such
that we can easily compete with
other sections and the advertising
will be worth the effort in preparing
q good exhibit.
1t is Mr.. Ahlson's plan to place a
map of Idaho in the center of the
exhibit and to indicate the localities
where special crops are grown by
streamers connecting the place with
the product displayed.
To prepare these samples careful
work is necessary to get a clean
bright sample weighing as much
above the standard as possible.
Bingham county will supply the
following samples for the Interna-
tional show: Alfalfa, one peck, ten
samples we'll cleaned for competition
and ten for general display. Idamine
oats, one peck, five hand-picked
samples, and five samples for dis
play. Trebi barley, one peck, three
samples hand-picked and three
samples for display. Dicklow wheat,
one peck, two hand-picked samples
and three for display. Alsike clover,
one peck, two samples.
Duplicate samples can be prepared
at the same time to be displayed at
the state seed show to be held in
Idaho Falls next January. All
samples for the international hay
and grain show must be ready for
shipment by November 10.
Premiums. at the international
show range in amounts from IS to
$40, and there are from ten to thirty
five premiums in various kinds of
seed.
Those who desire to enter their
grain at either or both shows should
immediatel yadyise the Bingham
county farm bureau of their inten-
ton.

COURT SETS VALUE ON TREES
Decision That Will Be Of Interest to
Many Communities Throughout
the Country.

In Salem, Mass, a resident sued the
town gas light company for damages
caused by the killing Of five shade
trees through the escape of gas from a
leaky main. verdict for $1,000
against the company was rendered.
500 a tree. The decision is said to
have been awaited with a good deal
OF Interest by surrounding towns, for
tree killing from this cause is COM
mon thing. 1t has happened many
times in Indianapolis according to re-
port, though complaints have not been
heard lately with the frequency that
characterized them rack in the days
when natural gas was piped through
the streets, hastily and no doubt often
carelessly.
The killing of thrifty, well-grown
shade tree is usually distinct loss to
any property, commonly lowering its
value. In view Of the time required
for the growth of such trees $500 is
moderate sum in the way of damages.
and no amount Of money, when it
comes to that, can really recompense
the owner Of the trees. They have to
him, especially If he planted and cared
for them, sentimental value that dol
lars cannot measure. They have added
beauty to his home and he has counted
them among his treasures. To a real
tree lover, beautiful tree, whether
his own or not, seems almost to pos
sess personality of its own and to
see it struggle for life and gradually
die, brings real sorrow. 1t is to view
calamity.-Indianapo Star.

TO PREVENT POTATO LOSSES
Serious Damage Results From Careless
Handling at Harvest Time
Avoid Breaking Skin.

Growers and shippers are RESPONSE
: BILE for much of the loss that results
from shipping diseased potatoes, since
large part Of such losses can be con-
trolled, if not entirely prevented, in
the field, according to specialists of
the bureau of markets of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Serious damage results from careless
handling when the potatoes are har-
vested. Too many persons, it is said,
handle potatoes as though they were
so many cobblestones, rather than
perishable product. Even the breaking
of the protective skin frequently
proves serious. Such injury not only
damages the appearance and neces
states deep pairing Of the tuber, but
affords ready entrance to infection.
Loss of this sort lies in every growers
and shippers power to control, it is
rOinted out.

for nothing; at nineteen she would
be only SO much older so much more
desperately bent upon this marriage.
And Peter was there then, was COM
ing and going. advising and teasing her
$50 near, SO accessible, loving her
even then, had she but known It.!
That engagement might as easily
and how much more wisely !-have
been with Peter; the presents. the
gowns, the wedding would have been
the same, to her childish egotism; the
rest how different! The rest would
have been It instead of darkness,
joy instead of pain, dignity and de-
velopment and increasing content in
stead of all the months of restless
criticism and doubt and disiIlusion-
ment. The very scene here, with Mrs.
North and Alix, might easily have
been, with Cherry as the wife of Peter,
Cherry as her sisters hostess, in the
mountain cabin
At the thought her heart suffocated
her. She stood dazedly looking out of
the old kitchen window, and her
senses swan in sudden spasm Of
pain.
