Unable to Get a Pitcher and Catcher
Eden Did Not Appear
For Game.

Eden and Shoshone did not play
their regular scheduled game here
Sunday because Eden was unaiie to
obtain a pitcher and catcher and thus
was required to forfeit the game.
An effort was made to acquire the
services of battery in Twin Falls
Saturday but this failed so the game
was not played. M. c. McQuivey, OF
Eden, Monday morning stated Eden
had no intention of dropping out or
the league and that his team will re-
double it's efforts toward getting
pitcher and catcher.
The two teams wers supposed to
play a double-header Sunday in or

However, Eden at first declared they
could play one game but not two
and then, at last it was found I'M
nossible for them to put team in
the field.
The game was forfeited to Sho-

two Mexicans in Tuel county, Utah
H. c. Jones Of King Hill, who has

he had killed two Mexicans in Utah.
He requested Jones to bring him to
Shoshone and promised to come quiet
ly if he would do so. Jones brought
him here Monday afternoon.
When questioned at the Jail by
Wheeler Ritchie admitted he had killed
the Mexicans in a fight and claimed
it was in self defense but he had no
witnesses so made his escape Wheel
'er got in communication with the
Utah authorities who verified the
story, and said they would come for
the prisoner.
About twelve years ago Ritchie

time and seemed well acquainted with
the city.

county, came Wednesday for the
prisoner and took him back to stand
trial. He said the Italian had killed
one Mexican and wounded two after
a quarrel.

John Bailey has returned from
Parma where he went to investigate
the alfalfa weevil and the methods
used for control and eradication
Badley is Of the opinion that 1t IS
easier to fight the weevil before it
gets a big hold and to this end gives
the following account of his trip:
Upon my arrival in Parma on July
9Th I was met by Lieutenant Cover
nor Baldridge who took me in his car
to the labratory of Mr.. Claud Wake
land, etimologist of the University
Extension Department who explained
to me in detail the campaign he is
earring on in fighting the weevil in
that section of Idaho.
In the afternoon I went with him
in his car to the farm of Mr.. F. L.
Johnson near Parma, where a series
Of experimental demonstrations are
being carried on. Mr.. Wakeland ex-
planned to me that the only success
thus far achieved in combating the
weevil, without injury to the stock
that eats the hay, is with calcium
arsenate used as a dust or as a spray.
The quantity used is two pounds per
acre, and costs twenty-five cents per
POUND. In their experiments the spray
has proved more beneficial than tho
dust method. The same quantity OF
calcium -arsenate is used. II is mixed
with water and sprayed and is applied
with an especially made spray mach
me. In the busting process the cal
cium-arcenate Is put on dry as a
dust by a machine made for thar
purpose. Three acres per hour ear be
sprayed by one man and team There
