THE DUBOIS PROJECT

1t is interesting to know that there
is fair prospect Of the Dubois irri-
cation project being put over. A fine
body of land in that part of the state
awaits only the touch Of water, and
the building of the American Falls
reservoir, in which the Dubois pro-
ject is clearly entitled to participate,
affords a source of supply.
The Dubois project needs some
thing else, however, before it can be
put on the map as a going concern,
and that is the cooperation Of the
people of the Snake River Valley. It
is local only in the sense that the
land is in one body in certain part
of the state; but it is in reality as
important to the entire Snake River
Valley as to the upper end Of it. Fur
thermore, it is a state project, de-
velopment that will aid in general
Idaho upbuilding.
We must not blind ourselves to the
fact that prosperity in one part OF
Idaho sheds it's benefcient rays to all
boundaries of the state, and, too, that
the palsying hand of depression at
any point reaches all of us.

the water works show an operating
deficit OF s1,O0O,0O0 per year. To
avoid bankruptcy, a change Of policy
is inevitable.
Water waste seriously curtails
fire protection, thereby increasing in

sewage disposal and makes the cost
of securing at attractive, sparkling,
filtered water supply prohibitive."

HYDRO DEVELOPMENT

For years there has been a great
deal Of nonsense floating around in
the non-technical press regarding the
possibilities of hydro-electric develop
ment. The possibilities are surely
big enough without the augmentation
Of absurd exaggerations. A maya
zine makes the assertion that devel-
opement of hydro-electric resources
will not only do away with coal
strikes but will also solve the smoke
nuisance created by city factories. AS
a sober fact, there are, of course, sec
lions of the country without large
waterpower resources, and some form
of fuel will be necessary in the pro-
duction of electrical energy at least
|revolutionized. In some sections even
those water power resources in ex-
istence are so tied up by other de-
velopments, or the value Of the prop
erty that would be destroyed by over
flowing is so great, that development
is at present economically out Of the
question.
The real truth is that waterpower
resources in some sections Of the
country can be ultimately developed
to conserve fuel resources tremen-
dously. In those sections important
developments have already taken
place, and additional ones must wait
on the further development of indus
try. In many cases such develop
ment means a migration Of industry
from overcrowded centers in which,
for one reason or another, industrial
enterprises have concentrated. Such
developments mean big things for the
country. In other sections the dom
mating problem is, and probably will
be for decades il not centuries to
come, the best way in which to make
use of fuel resources. Hydro-electric
energy. is to industry boom which
will gorw in magnitude as the prob
lens surrounding its generation and
are solved. 1t will never
be a panacea for the industrial i'll |

MANY WAR VETERANS
REINSTATE INSURANCE

AS time passes since the World
War, ex-service men of this district
realize more and more the value of
the government insurance judging
from the reinstatement of war insur-
ance policies during the last twelve
months, L. c. Joseph, Seattle, north
west district manager of the United
States Veterans Bureau, announced.
A total of 1923 war veterans Of
Washington, Oregon and Idaho had
$3,S7O,OOO of war risk insurance re-
instated during the year and $2,412,-
900 of term insurance was converted
into permanent forms Of government
insurance, it was stated. This is an
increase of nearly 100000 of REIN
stated insurance over the preceding
year.
There are still many ex-service
people who have failed to take adj
vantage OF the opportunity offered by
the government to renew their war
insurance no matter how long prem
ium payments have lapsed, Mr.. Jes-
seph declared. He urged that all
war veterans reinstate their war in
surance policies at an early date. In
surance cashiers have been stationed
at the Veterans, Bureau offices OF
Seattle, Portland and Spokane.

MERELY TOWN OF MEMORIES

One likes to believe that President
Hardings itinerary in Alaska was
changed so as to let him visit the
town Of Skagway because 1t was there
that gathered. twenty-five years ago,
an eager army Of daring adventures
bound for the new gold fields on the
Yukon, and he wanted to see a place

nature so thrilling and romantic.
1t was a strange multitude that
landed on that wild coast and then
started inland through the mountains.
The facilities for land travel reached
at that time their height in q dog team,
and much more often the gold hunters
themselves had to draw their hedges
over the pass. Then they built boats
or RATS on which to descend rivers
with many dangerous rapids. The
most primitive Of conditions were re-
vived. The law had little or nothing to
say, and every man had to maintain
his rights as well as meet the innum.
cradle hardships Of the journey.
In short, It was "the days Of 49,

qualities as before were required for
success, and even for the maintenance
Of life, under climatic conditions much
more severe than those Of California.

Satisfaction All Round.

Things sometimes turn out in rath'
er unexpected manner. Cornelius Cor.
dite one day set out into the jungle to
hunt big game. By strange coinci-
dence a panther also set out in the
same Jungle to look for some dinner.
II must have q fur coat" said Cor
nelius. at
II must Lave something to eat"
said the panther.
After both had prowled about for
some hours they at last caught sight
of each other.
"Ahap said the hunter, leveling his
gun, there is my fur coat"
He fired, but the panther, lodging
behind a tree, escaped unhurt.
Then the panther rushed out, fell
upon the hunter, and devoured him.
So both were satisfied. The panther
had his dinner and the hunter his fur
coat.

A THUNDER AND LIGHTNING
STORM,-what causes this phenome-
non? George F. Sleggs, B. &c., the
University Of Saskatchewan has ex-
planned it in simple terms as follows:
A sea Of warm, damp air pierces a
colder layer above it and the moisture
is condensed into rain drops. These
start falling earthward and as they
fall are broken up by the force of the
ascending air. At this time these
rain drops become electrified, thus
providing the electric energy for the
lightning.
