Idaho's share of the Is million
dollars recently appropriated by con-
gress Tor forest roads in the country
be approximately two million dollars
If the Interpretation placed upon the
law by state officials is adhered to by
the United States department of agri-
culture in administering the funds.
The law regulating the disburse-
ment Of forest aid funds to the state
provided that aid may be procured
where the road Lies wholly, partly
or adjacent to the forest
Ii this be interpreted to mean that
roads which skirt "a national forest
can get aid, then Idaho's share will be
large, for there are many highways
I'm the state which are located in a
valley with a national forest on either
side. Another phase of the law DIS
that federal cooperation may reach
100 per cent in reads which come
under the meaning of the act. ....
This means that if the state and
county have no money with which to
build a road partly i'm or adjacent to
a forest federal funds may be used to
finance the entire project. And an
other fine feature OF the bill is that
roads thus constructed must conform
ito the standards in use in the state
or county i'm which the road is situ-
ated. OF course, within the forest the
government can build whatever kind
of road it desires. .....-.-.--

Depositors of Closed Banks Cared for.

Five state banks i'm Idaho which
have closed their doors in the past
year have paid their depositors in
full and two have arranged their
affairs so that their depositors will
get IS per cent of what the banks
held for them, according to the state
commissioner of finance, who has
given our a summary of recent bank
failures in Idaho to show to what
extent the depositors have been paid
in full.
In some cases the depository Ii
abilities of the banks which closed
have been taken over by another
bank which has paid the depositors,
and in others it has been the stock
holders and directors who have seen
to it that the depositors did not lose
as result of the bank closing.
In detailing his summary, the
commissioner went back to October,
1920 in which month the Stock
growers Bank and Trust company OF
Pocatello closed its doors. In this
case the liabilities of the trust com
pany were taken over by the Ma
tional Bank of Idaho and each de-
positor was paid in full by this in
stitution.
This procedure was not true in
the case of the Commercial and
Savings bank lat Mountain Home,
which closed in December, 1920.
Stockholders and directors of that
institution paid its depositors every
cent entrusted to the care of the
bank. In several instances new
bank has grown out of the failure of
the old institution This is true in
the case oif the State Bank of Koos-
kia which closed in May, 1921 and
reopened soon afterwards as the
Citizens State bank of Kooskia, Tho
Bfuneau state bank which closed in
May reopened in June and paid its
depositors in full.
The Union Central bank Of May
closed on May "a, and just recently
depositors and all creditors of this
institution have been paid in full
by the Citizens National bank at
Salmon.
AT Burley, January II, 1921, two
banks failed to open their doors
They were the Burley State bank
and the Bank of Commerce. To-
gether these institutions had de-
pository liabilities Of more than q
million dollars but there was or
ganized out of the failure the Com
mercial State bank with a capital
and surplus off one hundred twenty
thousand dollars and this institu-
ton assumed S5 per cent of the in
debtedness to depositors of both
banks.

Railroads Claim to Have Lost.

Losses in revenue, amounting to
millions below actual cost of opera
ton, have been incurred by railroads
doing business In Wisconsin, accord
ing to their estimates. Reports re-
ceived from the carriers by the Wis
cOnsin tax commission show that. with
several exceptions, among the smaller
companies, the steam carriers of the
state have lost heavily. The North
western road. which has averaged
around S2O.OOO,OOO pet profits annual
ly for number Of years, came with
in $3,000,OOO last year of meeting
actual expense of operation. the re-
ports say; the st. Paul line, which
was making around $26.00O,0OO an
nually before government operation,
sustained a $s.458.OO0 loss lass year.
These figures do not include interest
charges. The Burlington, Great North
ern and 500 lines are the only roads
that broke even, II is claimed.

MISS BRADY WANTS
GARDENS PLANTED

About time to think of planting the
garden-what are you going to put in
to it, Mary A. Brady, home demon
stration agent. asks. There should
be a garden plan worked out carefully
before strating the planting. as this
will save time and will give the most
sat sfactory results. If garden is
planted in haphazard manner the
corn will be shading the cucumbers
and tomatoes and keep them from
producing. and there will not be suf-
ficient room for all the vegetables you
want to have. Plan to have a place
for everything and then in the fall
there will plenty of peas and corn
spinach and beans and every vegetable
you want to have for canning. In
this way you will be assured of a
supply for the whole year through
without the added expense nor trouble
of having to buy any"
