HONORABLE MENTION To BE
GIVEN FOREST FIRE FIGHTERS

A plan to give official and honor
able mention to stockmen or their en-
ployees who render Independent SER
vice in preventing or fighting fires on
national forests has been suggested
by foresters of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. This plan
should be similar To that one now In
effect in some nations where sheep
herders who have been especially dill
igent in observing the grazing regu-
laitons are given card commenting
them to other sheep raisers to whom
they may apply for employment. The
suggestion is made that special let
tiers OF appreciation could be sent by
district foresters OF the Forest Ser
vice.
Ordinary cooperation which stock
men agree to in their applications
should not be thus recognized, the
specialists say, but noteworthy cases
should receive official and honorable
mention. Examples OF such cases
taken from the Forest Service records
are:
"Two herders saved the day in the
case of one fire.
Mine permittees fought fire ~
hours without recompense.
"A hcrder took up the patrol of .
regular ranger during the latter's Ill
ness"
"One permittee came 80 miles ane
fought 100 hours and said he expect
ed no pay for his services"

Montview, Idaho, May 21.-The first
we'll in the Mud lake country for irri-

acres from the one well.
This well is forty feet deep, eight
feet in diameter and has twenty-five
feet of water in coarse gravel.
A water elevator will be installed
as soon as possible.
The we'll was put down with two

meetings have for some time been
given over to dress form making. The
next meeting they will take up the
usual order of business. They have
been meeting once or twice week

Spirited balloting and numerous as

sufficient to put them over the top.

floating timbers.

Camas Prairie, was trapped in the

at the corner of enter and State

SICK AND ALONE MAN
TAKES HIS OWN LIFE

Floyd G. Dougherty died by his own
hand last Saturday morning, accord
ing to a report that came from the
where his wife was employed and
where he met her in the kitchen. In
the room at the time, besides Dough-
erty and his wife, were his step
mother, Mrs. Anton Schwartz, for
merly Mrs. Dougherty. A few days
pervious, it was reported, Floyd
Dougherty, had appeared at the
ra,ch to see his wife, the couple havs
ing lived apart for some time, but a
reconciliation was not effected. 1t
was a renewed effort in the same line
that he made on Saturdays visit, so
it was said, his wife still declining to
go with him. According to one of the
witnesses he aimed gun first at his
wife and then at his own neck, the
weapon, which was 80 calibre Colts,
failing to go off both times. For the
third try at shooting he aimed at the
floor, when the bullet crashed into
the ground. At this he is said to have
expressed regret that the pistol had
not discharged at the two previous
efforts, and then he asked his wife
to kiss him good bye, as he was going
away never to trouble her again. A
moment afterward he pulled the trig-
ger on himself, with the result as
stated.

MELILLA, Morocco, April 30. = (By the Associated Press.) = Sla- very and trading in slaves still flour ish in the unconquered districts of both the French and Spanish zones of Morocco. There have been stories that some of the slaves are white people but these reports are not borne out by inquiry.

 However. it is customary for the purchaser to make formal agree ment before a competent legal au. thority to grant his slave his liber- ty on his masters death. when the heirs have to give up all claim and at the same time to allow thesliber- ated slave to live on and cultivate arv nortion of his dead masters land which may have been, left to him as one Of the family.
 A slave owner may give his slave wife from among his other slaves bought in the same way and the thil- dren Of these marriages becomes slapss of the same owner unless he has signed the agreement already mentioned in connection with their parents.
