TWO FIRES
Residence of M. Sliman Destroyed
Murray Home Damaged.

Fire completely destroyed the re-
sidence of Mike Sliman, on South
Washington street, yesterday after
noon, inflicting loss of $500. The
building was insured for $500. No one
was at home at the time, Mr. Sliman
being at work in the Boise Payette
mill and Mrs. Sliman being at work
in another part of town, and the
cause of the fire is unknown. Very
little of the furniture was removed.
Mr.. Sliman not long ago purchased
the property on the monthly payment
plan and the loss is heavy one for
him.
The other fire occurred Sunday
evening between and o'clock at the
Luther Murray residence at the cor
ner of Fourth and Washington No
one was at home when the fire de-
partment arrived. The fire originat-
ed in a closet back of the cook stove
and although burning fiercely among
clothing and in the partition, was
soon extinguished. The principal
damage was from water, fully cover
ed by insurance, which was promptly
adjusted and the house will be put in
order again in a short time.

Needs Revision

Emmett's license law needs fixing
insofar as it relates to itinerant ped
dlers. This was demonstrated in the
case of the smooth talking salesman
who sold several hundred dollars
worth of dry goods on the street Mon
day. These fellows pay no taxes to
keep up the municipality and should
not be allowed to hawk their wares
in competition, with local merchants.
Their goods are inferior in quality
and, as in the case cited above, are
sold at higher prices than merchants
charge for superior goods. The tax on
all peddlers should be raised to the
limit.

AGGRESSIVE CAMPAIGN
BY FARM BUREAU
Discussion of Farmers Pro-
blems to be Featured in The
Index During Year.

H. G. Peckham, newly elected presi-
dent of the Idaho Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton, is planning an aggressive
Farm Bureau campaign for the bet
terment of Idaho agriculture. Mr..
2eckham has made careful analysis
If the needs of Idano farmers and ex-
poets from time to time to issue state
ments in amplification of his ideas
for the benefit of Idaho farmers, and
these views will be published from
time to time during the present year
in The Index. In discussing the mat
ter, Mr.. Peckham said in part:
The purpose of the Idaho Farm
Bureau Federation is to promote the
agricultural interests of the State of
Idaho. This can be accomplished to
greater or lesser degree directly in
proportion as the Federation receives
the support and coopeation of not only
-he farmers, but also the commercial
and financial interests of the State.
The farmers problems may be an
Alyzed briefly, as fonoWs: 1t consists
of two divisions, production and dis
PNoASAOh VI ShSii SLOPos Ill ana LiilS
me first DIVISION, we find it consists
of three parts: (D crop selection,
(2) seed selection, (3) correct cultur-
al methods. The second division like
wise consists of three parts: ()
transportation, (2) marketing, 90
finance. From time to time we plan
to present to the readers of Idaho
discussion on different phases of this I
subject. We believe that by studying
these problems together it may be
possible to work out a program for
agriculture that will greatly enhance
the revenues received from our farms
The Idaho Farm Bureau Federation
will appreciate suggestions from any
one interested in the different phases
of this problem. Let US work together
for greater production of profitable
crops. Let US cooperate to make more
profitable the crops we are now pro-
dpcing.
Mr.. Peckham promises timely ar
ticles discussing in detail the subdi-
visions referred to and our readers
may look forward to a full and COM
plete discussion of the topics outlined

and out of these there were only 200
that he considered good enough to
keep for breeders. One of the great
est, if not the greatest secrets of
successful poultry raising lies in the
breeding pen. Successful poultry
raisers have learned that consider
alton of eggs they use for Matching is
of vital Importance. Pullets hatched
from eggs that can be depended on
for great average flock production
and for rapid growth and early ma
turity come from well selected stock
that have valuation back of them.
Now when taxes are high and prices
of farmers produce in general low,
VIC cannot we'll afford to be indiffer-
ert to these facts, for haphazard work
gets you nowhere.

ORCHARD NOTES

By the time these notes are read
the season will have advanced suffi
GENTLY that spraying may be started
as soon as possible, | am finding the
green aphis Matching throughout the
valley and believe the time ripe fol-
spraying, as we cannot wait, for there
are always some days lost through
rain and wind and spray machine trou
Bile. All apple, pear, peach and prune
orchards should be sprayed with
either the lime sulphur or oil spray.
Where lime sulphur is used the so
called spreader should be added as
also nicotine sulphide or Black Leaf
40. Where oil is used, the spreader
may be omitted. The addition of
nicotine is especially recommended
for apple orchards as they are gener-
ally infested with aphis. The addi-
ton of arsenAte Of lead should be add
ed IN spraying peach and prune or
chards, this being designed to get be-
lated twlg borers. In all cases use
the strength or proportions as recon-
mended for dormant or spring spray
ing. In using the oil, soft water is
important to get the proper emulsion
l believe river water to be the best,
but where well water is used it may
be necessary to aid pounds of lye to
200 gallons Of water, as hard water
gives poor results. Also be sure and
mix or stir the oil in barrel thoroly
before measuring into tank. Always
pour the concentrates into tank first,
then the water, keeping the agitator
running all the time. At no time
should the oil spray be used whereI
free oil rises to the surface, as dam
age is likely to result to the trees.

Fruit Union and Emmett Fruit Grow
ers Association, and find the solution
Of proper strength and recommend

spray. All other poisons should be
used as per instructions on packages.
/ wish to add few don'ts.
Don't spray when trees are wet
~ while it is raining, however light.
Don't spray in a heavy wind.
Don't use less than 200 pounds pres
sure.
Don't leave a tree before it is fully
covered
Last but not least, don't neglect to
pray. Let US go into the 1872 cam
,aign determined to clean up. Remem-
,er this is the all important spray
# the year. / am convinced that
much of our lack of results last year
vas caused by our irregular spraying 1
nd by showers interfering, as it has s
een fully demonstrated that unless 6

o dry, little good has been accom- c
lished.

Democratic Gossip.

The Democratic leaders, so far are
non-committal, although the names
Of Frank Martin, Judge VIM. E. Nor.
gan and even Moses Alexander have
been heard in the conversation OF
political devotees. The Democratic
candidates are purely matter Of con
lecture, however, as they do not have
a man in their ranks like C. c. Moore
who looms up distinctly among the
other Republican gubernatorial pos
sibilities.

nothing gained in arguing to prove a
point after the manner of the district

should be to draw the other fellows
fire in opposition and from the out
come to reach the conclusion of COM

lose an argument than when we win
