If ever a fool killer was needed it
is now and he should be sent the
rounds Of the state legislatures.
He could begin at Olympia, where
fool legislator intr oduced bill
to prohibit marriages IN the state by
forcing those planning to marry to
publish the banns for Is days be-
fore applying for the license
From Olympia the F. X. should
jump to Boise and assassinate the
author of the new game law that
proposes to make every owner of a
bird, rabbit, a dog, a gun, a fish
or enough: money, to buy hunters
license in his state; and the author
of a fool bill to place all SWIM
ming, dancing and automobile
parties under the direct supervision
OF the department of public well
fare.
This bill would forbid any public
or private dancing parties until a
permit Is secured from the public
welfare committee, and no one
would be permitted to ride IN auto
mobiles after 9 o'clock at night.
Failure to comply with the pro-
visions of this law is punishable by
fine of not to exceed 5000 or I'M
prisonment for not less than 30 days
nor more than one year.
And yet people wonder why
Americans are losing their respect
for laws and the courts and officers
that enforce them.-Star- Mirror.

1t we were going to seed a field to
alfalfa there are two things that
would be done before seeding
partially from an experimental
point of view but largely because
we have the utmost faith IN the
effectiveness of the treatment. First
we would give the soil good dose
of land plaster. The reason why
we believe land plaster to be neces-
sary to produce good crop of alf-
alta is because we have seen alfalfa
growing under most favorable con-
dltions in the Potlatch-pIenty of

Effects of Constipation

Constipation causes a stoppage of
the sewerage system of the body.
The poisonous refuse matter that
should be carried away is retained
in the system and often polsons the
blood and causes numerous dis
orders. No one can afford to neg
lect his bowels. A dose of Cham
berIain's Tablets will afford relief.
Avoid drastic cathartics as they
take too much water out of the
system and their use is likely to be
followed by constipation. ADV.

INCREASE OF DRAFT HORSES
Larger Number on Farms Shows How
Agricultural and Transportation
Needs Are Growing.

The United States census for 1910
revealed 1888, 600 horses and 4,21O,-
600 mules on farms. The Department
of Agriculture estimate for January
l, 1920, shows 21,1O9,OOO horses and
4,995.OO0 mules on farms, or an in
crease of 100000 horses and 1885,
600 mules in the last decade. Be-
sides this we exported, during the nine
years ending June 80, 1919. 1.149,-
1853 horses and 376.S36 mules. The rise
in prices for good draft horses and
mules. in spite of the existence of more
than 21.OOOOOO horses and almost s.
100000 mules on farms. indicates how
agricultural and transportation needs
are growing.

CESSATION OF WARFARE
RELIEF TO ALL BRITAIN
Irish Leader Calls on People to
Show They Are United-Warns
of "Undue Confidence"
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 9.-With something
like an immense sigh Of relief the
entire country has greeted the news
OF the cessation Of warfare in ireland
and Eamon de valera's coming con-
ference with the British prime min
lister at London. which 1t is fervently
hoped will lead to full restoration OF
peace, tho prospects Of which even the
more cautious political observers re-
gard as brighter than for a long time.
The careful wording of Mr. de
valera's acceptance Of conference
10 interpreted in some quarters here
~ based on the ne :essity Of the Irish
republican leader feeling his way with
his own followers. 1t Is thought,
however, that truce deliberately
embarked upon cannot we'll be delib-
erately discarded. and that alone Is a
consideration Of great promise.
Terms Of Truce Agreed On.
The terms Of the truce. which be-
gins at noon Monday. were agreed to
at British military headquarters in
Dublin this afternoon. The provi-
sions Of the truce cover fully all the
ground for a temporary peace between
crown forces. All attacks. searches
and raids, surveillance and provoca-
ttons are to be abandoned by both
sides.
Mr. de valera's acceptance Of the
responsibility for fulnllment Of the
truce by the Irish republican army Is
held to dispel the idea in some quar-
ters that the most active branch Of
the Sim Fein is beyond the control Of
the political chiefs. Whether that is
SO will be tested by the course Of
events after the truce comes into ef-
feet.

In a manifesto issued at Dublin
this afternoon. the republican leader
calls upon the people Of ireland to
prove by their actions that this is a
struggle of an organized nation"
but warns them against undue
confidence" in the peace discussion.
He urges upon them "unbending
determination to endure all that may
still be necessary. and fortitude such
as you have shown in all your recent
