OUGHT. LUMBAGO!. RUB PAINS
FROM SORE, LAME BACK.

Back hurts you? Can't straighten
up without sudden pain, sharp aches
and twinges? Now listenl That's
lumbago, sciatica, or maybe from a
strain, and you'll get relief the mo-
ment you rub your back with soothing,
penetrating st. Jacobs Oil. Nothing
else takes out soreness, lameness and
stiffness so quickly. You simply rub
1t on your back, and out comes the
pain. 1t is harmless, and doesn't burn
the skin.
Timber up! Don't suffer- Get a
snall trial bottle of old, honest ST.
Jacobs Oil from any drug store, and
after using it just once you'll forget
that you ever had backache, lumbago
or sciatica, because your back will
never hurt, or cause any more misery

This cry no longer comes from the

of these Instruments Of defense. Our
domestic troubles can be solved only
through education and the proper ap-
peal to constituted authority In the
name of our court and jury system.
We have sworn to support the con-
stitution Of the United States and on
this earth of the here and now there
can be no higher authority.
True brotherhood must mean to
us sympathy and helpfulness to each
other. 1t can never mean suspicion
and distrust. True Americanism can
never mean anything other than com

The resort to mob law or any clique
of individuals can never be tolerated
nor need patriotism ever mean bitter
ness to other nations. Let us pledge
ourselves the friend and brother of

RECOMMEND SPRAY
FOR ALFALFA PEST
AFTER STUDYING SITUATION, En-
PERTINENT STATION ANNOUNCES
WAYS OF COMBATING WEEYIL

The agricultural experiment station
after careful study, is recommending
spraying for the control of the alfalfa
Weevil, a pest which is one Of the
greatest dangers to the alfalfa grow
ing districts of southern Idaho. The
station is recommending spraying be-
cause it appears to be the more effec-
I've and it is less costly and can be
applied with less interference with
the best growing practices than any
other method of control under aver
age conditions. The alfalfa weevil
work in southern Idaho is being con-
dRcted under the supervision of
Claude Wakeland. station entomolo-
&tet. and the recommendations are
the result of his work thus far
Climatic conditions are such that
the weevi1 can be effectively con-
trolled by the application of one spray
in the eastern and southeastern parts
of the state, says statement by Mr..
Wakeland. Best results are obtained
by applying the spray on the first
crop at the time larval injury begins
to be severe over the entire field.
During the last three years this date
has varied from June 10 at Twin Falls
to July at Rexburg. This date is
approximately 10 days before time for
cutting the first crop Spraying done
at this time will protect the first crop
from serious loss and kill sufficient
weevil larvae to enable the second
crop to make a start without great
loss of time. Spraying on the sec
ond crop has proven valueless under
practical conditions.
Use Arsenate
Calcium arsenate is used for poison
ing alfalfa weevil larvae, and is ap-
piled at the rate of two pounds to
the acre. The experiment station
finds it more desirable than lead ar
senate since calcium is not an ac-
cumulative poison in an animals sys-
tenn. When the recommended amount
OF poison is used there is no danger

In western and southwestern Idaho |
the eggs are deposited earlier in the |
season than in eastern Idaho. For

Pocornoke Lad Narrowly
Escapes DrolOnine

Master Julius Fisher, the young son
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. Fisher had mar
row escape from drowning last We'd
nesday.
He, together with some other boys,
was swimming down at the old swim
ming hole, when young Fisher was
seen to be in distress. Failing to get
help from his companions, he called
loudly for help, as also did the other
boys.
Hugh McMichael heard the call and
rushed bravely to the rescue. He sue
ceeded in pulling the half-unconscious
boy from the water, and after rolling
him over to get the water out of him.
he restored the young man to con-
sciousness, who was all right later
in the day.
Too much care can not be exercised
by these youngsters while bathing
and this near-tragedy should be a
warning. Young McMichael is to be
commended for his bravery and his
successful effort to resuscitate the
boy.

N. /. VEASEY HONORED
BY ALMA MATER
Appointed A Member Of The Board
Of Visitors And Governors Of
Western Maryland College

Our fellow-ownsman, Milton l.
Veasey, has been notified of his ap'
pointment to the Board of Visitors
and Governors of his Alma Mater
Western Maryland College.
The honor came as a great surprise
to Mr.. Veasey, as he had no intima,
ton that he was being considered fol
the position.
The selection, no doubt, is due to
mis- record as a student; his loyalty
since graduation; and the ability he
has shown in his business career. Mr.
Veasey will no doubt inject into the
management of the prominent Mary
land college a great deal of the en-
crgy he has shown in his daily affairs;
and at the same time be a valuable
assistant in settling the educational
policy of the institution.
He is to be congratulated upon the
preferment and the institution can be
equally congratulated in securing
such competent and necessarily in
terested official.

City Fathers Having
Fourth Street Stoned

Work on the improvement of
Fourth street began this week. The
bed of this street will be laid in stone
of larger size at first, then covered
with a covering of smaller size, then
finally dust. Thorough wetting and
fclling will make smooth hard sur
face.
The town authorities are to be
commended upon their enterprise. The
complaint of the property holders has
long been justly made against the
neglect of a thoroughfare SO widely
used.
Besides by the permanent dwellers,
this street is frequented more than
any other by school children.
It has been covered with cinders
and the dust has been both annoying
and unhealthful. The improvement
will be received joyfully by all con-
cerned.
