WAY NOW OPEN FOR
MEMORIAL TO HEROIC DEAD
PLANS NOW BEING CONSIDERED FOR ERECTION OF SUIT
ABLE TRIBUTE TO SOLDIERS AND SAILORS

Recent action by the state
legislature in respect to soldiers
and sailors memorials in each
county in Idaho, opens the way
to erection of suitable memor-
ial in Idaho county, according to
John j. Pulse, of Grangeville,
chairman of the county memoir
ial committee. Mr.. Pulse on
Tuesday announced that plans
are under way whereby a men,
orial may be erected in Idaho
county which, it is expected, will
meet the approval of the public
both as to design and method of
financing the work.
At a joint meeting of the
executive board of the Idaho
County Memorial Committee and
the county commissioners and
American Legion, at which the
following gentlemen were pre-
sent: Edward Vincent, George d
Smith, Dale Clark, Frank Nc
Crane, w. w. Brown, John p.
Eimers, Commander c. Simmons
and Adjutant DR.. VIM. MacNeill.
All of the plans and specifica-
tions from various designers
were looked over and a report
made by the President John j.
Pulse, of all the data on hand, so
that the new board of local COM
manders of the legion could for
mulate plans for the early con-
stl.uction of this memorial, in CO.
operation with the county COM
missoners.
1t was decided that with what
money on hand and with the
county and state appropriations,
to erect an imperishable memor-
ial to those who served and suf-
fered in the war and have a
public and permanent reminder
of their heroism and devotion TO
duty.
Idaho county was hard hit by
the war having lost thirty men
more than any other county in
the state and nearly 500 men
were enlisted for service.
Of the great number of tenta-
tive designs submitted that
would come within the means of
the county to construct, a pic
ture or cut of which is presented
appealed to those present, and
which has been most favorably
endorsed by the public, is a de,
sign of a temple consisting OF
eight ionic columns supporting
an architrave, dome, clock, with

architrave there is an inscrip-

FARMING ON INCREASE
 IN SOUTHEAST ALASKA

KETCEIIKAN, Oct 19.-Increasing interest in farming in southeastern Alaska is indicated by the records of entries on agricultural land in the Tongass National Forest, according to District Forester Charles D. Florry, who said recently that since the close of the 1921 field season, 3S applications for homesteads on land within the forest have been filed with the supervisor.
 Forest rangers have been detailed to classify, survey and examine the land covered by these applications, said MT. Florry, and the forestry service probably will be in a po- sition to act on them by November 1. The areas are not confined to any one section of the forest but are well distributed. it is said.
 The purpose of these land classifi- cation surveys, according to MT. Florry, is to determine the relative values of the various sections, whether they are more suitable for agricultural or timber growing pur- poses.
