is interesting to note that the average
price of alfalfa hay for the whole

in April the average had increased to

hay IN the history of the State was

When the earth's last picture is paint
ed,
And the tubes are twisted and dried
When the oldest colors have faded,
And the youngest critics have died,
We shall rest, and, faith, we shall neea
it,
Lie down for an con or two,
Til the Master of all good workmen
Shall set us to work anew.
Only the good shall be happy;
They shall sit in golden chair,
And splash at a ten-lcague canvas,
With brushes of comets hair.
They shall have real saints to draw
from,
Magdalen, Peter and Paul.
They shall work for an age at sitting
And never get tired at all.
And only the Master shall praise them
And only the Master shall blame.
No one shall work for money,
No one shall work for fame,
But each for the joy of the working
And each in his separate star,
Shall paint the things as he sees them,
For the God of Things as they are.

IDAHO CROP REPORT FOR MAY.

The salient features of this month 3
agricultural report are: l. Winter
wheat production forecast less by one
and fourth million bushels than 1921
crop. 2. Hay crop less by 34S,O00 tons
than last year. s. Farm work greatly
delayed because of backward spring,
only 35 percent of the spring seeding
being completed, compared with So per
cent to the same date last year. 4.Mo-
rtality of live stock past year unifor-
mily higher for all classes than in
previous year.
Winter wheat: -.As result of loss
of percent of the seeded acreage of
winter wheat in idaho by winter kill
ing and a May LIST condition of only
So percent of normal, the production
forecast for this crop is one and ah
fourth million bushels less than 1921
crop of 10,250,0OO bushels. The per
centage winter killed is double that of
last year but 4 points below the sew
ere winter of 1920 when 10 percent of
the seeded acreage was abandoned or
reseeded to other Drops. Present con-
dition of the crop is rather low in
view of the fact that a year ago 81 per
cent of normal was reported while the
ten-year average May LIST condition is
95 percent. Evidently the generally dry
weather prevailing during seeding last
fall prevented normal development of
a large acreage aud left the plants in a
condition too weakened to withstand
the unusually low temperatures of
March and April. Losses by winter Kill
ling were most severe in northern and
the southeastern counties where it am
ounted to and percent, respectively,
of the seeded acreage

exceeds last years crop by 2,239, 1000
bushels and the past five year average

Pilgrimage Through Jefferson County.

Pilgrimage Through Jefferson County
(From the Martinsburg Journal.)
The Shenandoah Valley Chapter, N.
S. d. A. r., on Tuesday, August Sd,
made a pilgrimage TO various historic
homes located in old Berkeley, now
Jefferson county. At ten O'Clock in
the morning eleven automobiles, hold
ing fifty-one persons, left from the
home Of Mrs. G. B. Wiltshire in the
public square.
The whole trip was planned and d.
rected by Miss Nota Viewer. At each
stop a paper, written by her, concern
ing the history OF that particular
place, was read by one OF the chapter
members.
The first stop was made at "Trav-
eler's Rest" the house which Major
/ General Horatio Gates, OF Revolution
airy fame, built and lived in for many
years, but which is now owned and
occupied by the family OF Mr.. J. T.
Campbell.
ed upon the lawn by Mrs. Campbell
and her sister, Mrs. Willis, then in:
vited into the house, where the whole
building was thrown open for inspec-
ton.
This old house is situated a shor,
distance off the main pike about q
mile from Kearneysvile. 1t is a
quaint old structure and very we'll
preserved, so that one can see it to-
/ day much as il was in the time Of Cen
I eral Gates. 1t has an attractive stair
way in the center hall and a largo
| living room which is paneled in wood.
There is a mysterious walled-up closet
which makes one wonder, and dark
and secret passage ways which run
I from room to room in the second story.
| Before leaving travellers Rest"
Mrs. Walker read an historical sketch
of General Gates life and character.
The next stop was at "Lee Hall,1
the old home Of Major-General Charles
Lee, which is situated at the southern
end Of Leetown.
Here DIR. and Mrs. Hirst, who have
owned and lived in the property for
years, received the society very gra-
ciously and pointed out all OF the at
fractions Of the quaint old place. This
house originally consisted Of lust one
very large room, and here the general
lived with his dogs and slaves. Now,
however, the house is quite large and
bo1h comfortable and attractive. A
paper was also read here, telling OF
the peculiar man who built the one
room and lived in it after being dis.
missed from the American army.
After leaving Leetown the journey
was continued to Smithfeld or "Clip."
Here the pilgrims enjoyed bountiful
picnic lunch Of fried chicken, salads,
cake and many other good things, in

by the traditional clipping which is
said 10 have taken place there along
about 1894.
After the meal a most interesting
paper. which had been written BY Hiss
Nota Viewer, who had gotten her ill.,
formation by troublesome research
work, was read by Mrs. Wiltshire.
The pilgrimage was then continued
and the third old house visited was
"Harewood,' the house planned by
George Washington and built and &C.
cupied by his brother, Samuel Wash
ington. This home is between Smith,
field and Charles Town, and is truly
beautiful old place, but in need OF
much renovation. II is still owned by
the Washington family, but for many
years has been occupied by tenants.
The paneled drawing room is Beau
tiful and stately, and upon its walls
still hang four oil portraits. One Of
these is of Samuel Washington and
shows him to be a most dashing and
gay-looking gentleman. Another is Of
his son, Steptoe Washington, who, we
are told, used to become so furiously
angry whenever his father refused I'd
give him all the money he thought he
ought to have, that in his tantrums he
would go into the drawing room and
shoot at his fathers portrait. Judging
by the number Of holes in Samuer5
picture, the young man must have
been angry much of mis- time. The
third portrait is Of Mrs. Samuel Wash
ington, which one is not known, as the
gay gentleman had five wives during
his life of just little over fifty years.
The fourth portrait is said to be Of
Dolly Madison. There is also a glass
and wood cabinet in this room which
is filled with little relics which belong.
ed to the early members of the WASH
ington family. At the huge fireplac,
is marble mantel which Lafayette
presented to Samuel Washington after
one Of his visits to "Harewood," and
which, we were told, was made in
France. The stairway is very beauti-
full. The panels and ratings for it as
well as the paneling in the drawing
room were all imported from Eng
land.
The last home that was visited by
the chapter was "Claymont Court"
originally owned by Bushrod Washing
ton but later sold several times. At
one time it was owned and occupied
by Frank r. Stockton, the writer Now
it belongs to Mrs. J. F. Murphy. This
is beautiful and imposing place and
perfectly kept up. The gardens are
very extensive and attractive, while
the lawn is truly beautiful with its
wide vistas and huge old trees. At
"Claymont Court" one finds many
things both beautiful and interesting
and romance hovers about the old
place with its dungeon and its walled
in sideboard.
The weather was delightful and tho
whole pilgrimage from the beginning
TO end was an absolute success.
