COUNTY BURIES
REMAINS OF
ROY WILSON

The body of Roy Wilson, who was
killed recently near Glenns Ferry
while riding on an o. S. L. freight
train, was buried by the County OF
Gilmore.
Coroner Gilmore Ottenheimer made
every effort to have the relatives of
the young man take charge of the
remains, spending considerable mon
ey in kilograms and messages. He
finally received a telegram from one
of the brothers stating that the re-
latives we're not prepared to take
charge of the remains, so there was
nothing left for the county to do but
inter the body.
The remains of the unfortunate
young man were accordingly laid
to rest in the Glenns Ferry cemetery.

SWENDSEN RETURNS
FROM WASHINGTON

Boise, Idaho. June 27.-Reclama
ton commissioner Warren G. Swend-
sen returned last week from Wash
ington where he completed the final
business of having the Secretary OF
the Interior sign the contracts which
assure the completion of the Amer
lean Falls dam. The difficulty of the
purchase or acquisition of the Port
Neuf Bottoms belonging to the Ban
mock Indians has been overcome by
Secretary Work by putting that up
to Congress at the next session. The
Secretary takes the stand agreeing
with Commissioner Swendsen that
since Congress approved of the Amer
lean Falls dam it either did approve
of the purchase of the Indian land
OF would necessarily do so at the
next session.
Especially favorable contracts
we're drawn for the settlers of this
new area. A portion of the Mini
doka extension is land that has never
been entered by settlers and when
this area is open to settlement ex-
service men will be given the pref
erence for a month or more before
the land is open to settlement by the
general public. Arrangements were
also made so that the $1,650,O0O
available at this time which would
revert to the government July 1 if
not encountered will be utilized for
the purchase of the property being
covered by the dam and toward the
payments to the Idaho Power Com
pany on their contract.

prepared by tho United States Department
OF Agricultural
Limited tests made In preliminary
way by cereal investigators OF the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture show that certain organic COM
pounds Of mercury can be used sue
cessfully to control the seed-borne
smut diseases Of small grains, and that
the seed not only Is safe from injury
apparently, but In some cases actually
is stimulated. Plots Of barley grown
on the experimental farm from treated
seed have shown a remarkable In
crease in yield over those grown from
untreated seed or from seed treated
with formaldehyde or copper sulphate-
lime.
Organic mercury compounds have
been used in Germany since 1912 and
are replacing to a considerable extent
the old fornaldehyde and copper sui
phate-lime methods for the control OF
seed-borne diseases. They are known
under such trade names as "Uspulun"
and "Germisan." Chemical companies
In the United States are putting out
similar compounds Of mercury in small
lots for experimental purposes under
such names as "Chlorophol," "Seme-
san" and Corona" compounds. Some
25 of these commercial compounds
have been tested by the department,
and the ones mentioned have given ex-
cellent results in the experiments.
They have not been tried sufficiently
under various local conditions. how
ever, to permit general recommends
tion as yet.
If further tests substantiate the
good results already secured from this
method of seed treatment and no un-
foreseen difficulties develop, the use
Of treatments Of this type may replace
some Of the present methods, especial
ly for the control of barley and oat
smuts, but so far they must be re-
garded as being In the experimental
stage. While the method OF applica-
tion promises to be simple. the cost
probably will be as great IL not greater

SOME AIDS TO THE PL0WMAN

When you engage plowman to
plow the garden in the spring of the
year he generally has to drag or carry
his. plow into the garden by hand.
then lead the horse or the team In
through narrow gate. When he
starts to plow the fence Is In the
way Of turning, and It is impossible
to plow within several feet of the
fence at the ends Of the garden.
Why not make It easy for the plow-
man and at the same time get bet
ter Job Of plowlng by having the part
of the garden fence across the ends
made. In sections that may be lifted
from the posts and set TO one side
while the plowing Is being donef This
permits the team being driven into the
garden easily. also makes It possible
to plow all the way to the fence line.

or purchasing materials. A member

cases It Is well to hire a trained garden

sary to provide special means for
financing the cleaning up Of the land,
plowing and fitting the soil, and later
for the policing Of the gardens to pre-
vent losses from theft or stray stock.
Clubs consisting of neighbors who
plant gardens in their back yards must
include provision for rendering a dis

SHADE TREES THAT
WILL BEAR FRUIT
Home Owner Should Consider
All Phases of the Situation
When Planting.

Trees and decorative shrubbery are
about the first things the new home
owner gives attention when planning
the exterior Of his home. That Is a
matter to be, or which should be, given
careful attention, for trees and shrubs
live a. great many years and are sell
dom transplanted.
1t is well to give thought to what
trees will produce--when 1t is decided
where they are to be planted
There are many people who will not
plant a tree that does not produce
more than pretty leaves-they demand
trees that will produce fruit or nuts
something useful-in addition to the
shade.
There are numerous of the fruit tree
family that produce splendid shade,
and 1t Is seldom that fruit tree Is
Objectionable when 1t Is laden with its
fragrant blossoms, and later, It's rich
ly colored fruit; although the rear
yard, or garden space, Is usually
chosen, perhaps because of better op-
portunlty for cultivation.
Nut trees make splendid shade
trees and many Of them produce with
In a few years-and nuts are well
coined by nearly every family.
Mulberry trees afford most well
come early fruit, which is equal to the
raspberry or blackberry. The only OBJ
lection to this fruit Is that 1t Is well
coined more by the birds, which be-
come n nuisance; but the shade Of
The L'Anse sentinel., 1923-03-16

some varieties is equal to that Of the
maple.
The peach tree Is one OF the most
graceful Of the fruit tree family, and
would be decorative In the front yard.
Its blossom Is rich and the ffuit Is
pretty, besides being valuable.
There are numerous dwarf apple
trees that would not be Objectionable
In the front or side yards.
Pear and plum trees, when well
cared for, are decorative and produce
In almost any soil and section of the
country.
In reality, there Is more well-found-
ed objection to many Of the shade
trees, such as the quick-growlng pop
lars. Their life is short and every
season they must be cleaned Of their
dead branches that have not already
Uttered the lawn.
The majority Of common shade trees
make heavy drain on the moisture In
the ground and often It Is difficult to
grow grass under them.

Classic Slang.

Considerable so-called slang Is clas-

POINTS. ON GARDEN PLANNING
Industrious Soil Worker Should Mako
Plans on Paper While Ground
Ia Frozen.

A garden laid out according to plan
usually gives twice as many returns
besides saving lot of time In figuring
out where to plant and what to plant
next. Take tape or yard stick and
measure of the garden. Draw 1t to
scale on paper and figure out while
the ground Is still frozen just where
everything Is to go and. what crops
are to succeed others.
If the garden space Is small, say as
small as 10 by 10 feet, 1t is question
Of which vegetable will yield the most
returns. A surprisingly large amount
Of vegetables can be grown In even
this small space.
II is well to decide upon two main
crops which may be grown at the same
time or as succession. Tomatoes and
string beans offer good solution with
radishes, lettuce and young onions as
the first crop. the tomatoes and beans
to follow. The beans taking compara-
lively little nourishment from the soil
compared with ,ther vegetables may
be grown In rows between the toma-
toes, which should be placed three feet
apart each way and trained to single
stems tied to stout stakes Mt least Ave
feet high. When the string beans have
been harvested there will be oppor-
tunity to follow wi N crops of turnips
or carrots for fall. A dozen tomato
plants can be groJn In this space,
leaving plenty of room for the other
crops between the rows. From dozen
well grown tomato vines lot of fruit
may be harvested during the season.
II string beams are not desired, car
rots, beets or turnips might be put In
In planning the garden, particularly
q small one. It Is best 70 run the rows
rorth and south to get better dlstri-
button of sunlight and 50 that one row
does not cut OF the supply of sunshine
from another, which sften happens
when the rows are run east and west,
and taller vegetables are placed to the
Bouth end.

CONDENSED PRUNING RULES
Trim FaII-set Trees Early In Spring
Before Buds SweIl-low Heads
Are Most Favored.

Someone has given the following
general, condensed rules for pruning
Of young trees: 'Prune fall-set trees
early in the spring, before the buds
swell; prune spring-set trees as soon
as planted. Cut out entirely all weak.
broken or bruised limbs, keeping the
head properly balanced; then shorten
the remaining shoots to three or four
buds at the base. Do not shorten
cherry trees. When planting peach
trees, cut Off all limbs, leaving stick,
and cut this back TO 18 to "a inches
from the ground. Head the tree right
when you plant It. Low heads are
best"

GARDEN CLUBS ARE
OF GREAT BENEFIT
The Cooperative Organizations
Should Be Formed Before
Garden Season Begins.

Cooperative garden clubs are of
two general types-those whose riem-
bers have their gardens on large
public tract of land and those whose
members are backyard gardeners. In
either case, the important thing Is the
"get-together' spirit among nelghbors,
the cultivation Of the feeling that
something Is to be gained by knowl-
edge Of what ones acquaintances are
accomplishing.
The organization should be perfect
ed before the garden season begins,
and all practical details attended to,
