LIGHTING CAUSES
100 FOREST FIRES

In a severe electrical storm in the
northern part of Idaho county and in
Clearwater county, Tuesday night,
lightning caused sixty-five fires in the
Clearwater forest, and thirty-five in
the Selway forest, according to advices
received by the office of the Nezperce
National forest, in Grangeville.
Because of the dry season and fire
hazard, Supervisor L. G. HURT, of the
Nezperce forest, has been authorized
to close, if advisable, any forest roads
where public travel is not absolutely
necessary. For the present, no road
will be closed, but the forest service
urges utmost precaution against forest
fires.
Because of the unusual fire hazard,
campfire permits are required be-
tween July 1 and September 1 on the
following areas of the Nezperce forest !:
South Fork of the Clearwater road
as far as Castle creek.
Adams road to Slate creek.
Red River Hot Springs road be-
tween Red River Ranger station and
Red River Hot springs.
Persons who desire campfire per-
mits, are required to get in touch
with the nearest forest ranger, who
will issue the permit. Those who dis
cover fire in the forest are instruct
ed to extinguish it, and if this is i'm
possible, to notify the nearest forest
office.

FUMIGATION STATIONS
TO BE DISCONTINUED

All fumigatiOn stations on Idaho's
border between Oregon, Nevada and
Utah ceased to operate July 1. The
stations were established two months
ago to fumigate all California auto
mobiles coming into Idaho, to prevent
spread of foot and mouth disease
from that state.
Nine stations have been main
tanned at the expense of the depart
ment of agriculture, and sixteen men
have been employed in the work Of
enforcing the quarantine regulations.
The stations were located at Ontario,
Nyssa, Payette, Weiser, Adrian,
Glenns Ferry, Contact, The Rocks
postoffice, in Jordan valley, and
Preston.
This does not mean, Commissioner
of Agriculture Means said, that the
state has removed the quarantine
against California. Two modifica-
tions of the original order have been
made, one of which went into effect
Wednesday The other was effective
June 1.

IDAHO DIVIDED ON
KHAN; VOTES
AS UNIT

New York. - 1t was the unit rule
that Saturday night had the Idaho
delegation in line in favor of the ma
Jority report on the khan plank at the
Democratic National convention. The
Idaho delegation, in poll made by
Chairman Hawley ON the floor, stood
three to five, six delegates with half
vote each favoring naming the khan,
as was done in minority report, while
ten delegates with half vote each
favored sustaining the majority re-
port. Those who advocated naming
the khan in the platform were former
Governors James II. Hawley and
Moses Alexander, Beecher Hitchcock,
Asher Wilson, George Gleason and
James T. Murphy. Delegates James
z. Pope, Mrs. $. Grover Rich, c. G.
Anderson, c. B. Wilson, George Wat
ers, DIR. w. p. Pike, Mrs. Curtis f.
Pike, Howard Henderson, George K.
Hill and Mrs. Theoresa Graham all
voted for milder defamation pro-
posed by resolutions committee.
The Idaho delegation has never
taken the khan issue as seriously as
most delegations at the convention
and when majority of the delegates
expressed their preference for the
milder plank, the unit rule was APP
piled without protest, and Idaho
showed solid front. Had the Idaho
delegation been able to vote accord
ing to personal preference of dele
gates instead of as a unit, the vote
would have changed the result ON the
khan plank, for three full votes cast
by the minority when the delegation
was polled by Chairman Hawley
would have been more than enough
to have put over the drastic plan
which went down to defeat
On the league of nations plank the
Idaho delegation was of one opinion,
and the unit rule was not necessary
to array them in favor of out and out
declaration in favor of going into the
league. They stood with Secretary
Baker in that fight.

SCENIC HIGHWAY
UP MIDDLE FORK

Auto parties, that have Travelled the
Lewis and Clark highway up the
Middle Fork and Lochsa rivers from
Kooskia, are enthusiastic over the
scenic route and the high standard of
construction in the national forest.
The road was constructed from
Kooskia TO Lowell, a distance of
about thirty-two miles, several years
ago, and the new construction to ex-
tend the road TO Missoula, was COM
menced at Lowell by Stems & Carl
son. This firm is now working ON the
second contract and reports received
are that the contract will be complet-
ed by December 1. The two contracts
held by Stems & Carlson will extend
the Lewis and Clark highway to the
entrance of the Black canyon, about
fourteen miles above Lowell.
MONEY UNTIL NEXT YEAR
The two contracts of Stems & Carl
son represent that portion of the
forest service appropriation of $685.
600 that has been allotted the Koos-
kia end for the building of the Lewis
and Clark highway between Kooskia
and Missoula. This fund was divid-
ed so that 100000 was secured by
the Lewis and Clark Highway asso-
citation i'm January and it is expected
this sum will be sufficient to keep the
work going at both ends until the
1925 ALLEGATION has been secured and
additional contracts are awarded.
A recent map prepared from data
secured in the office of the state
highway departments of Idaho and
Montana and the A1issOula forest SER
vice office. shows a stretch of little
more than sixty miles that has not
been financed. Quite large part OF
this link will be heavy construction,
but those familiar with the country,
feel the road can be completed in four
working seasons in the event the 192o
ALLEGATION of forest funds is sufficient
TO award large contracts at both ends
of the work.
81 MILES FROM KOOSKIA
The present contract of Stems
Carlson will complete the road to
point thirty-seven miles above koos-
kia and already large numbers OF hsh-
ing and outing parties are taking adj
vantage of the new country made ac-
cessible Ivy the construction of this
highway. The visits of these parties
II is expected will be increased from
wear TO year as the construction work
advances Sc that long before the road
is opened TO tourist travel, the scenic
wonders of the Lewis and Clark high
way between Kooskia and Missoula
will be well known to the entire coun-
try. This road will shorten the route
by 200 miles between Missoula and the
coast. and naturally become one OF the
popular routes of travel for all east
and west traffic

BOISE DEFEATS BONDS
FOR STATION APPROACH

Bosses proposed $4,000 bond is
sue for the building of an approach
to the new main line depot was de-
feated: Friday by 233 votes, the num-
Der the issue lacked to receive two
thirds majority. The total vote cast
for the bonds was 1872 while the
total vote against was 1,154. While
the bonds received a majority vote OF
45S, they did not get the two-thirds
majority required by the law. The
proposed issue was to build a suit
able approach to the depot for the
main line of the Oregon Short line
which is building into Boise. General
apathy on the part of the taxpayers
is given as the reason for the defeat
of the issue. The main line Will be

We are giving notice that on anu

that the meat business demands cash
in advance for every animal we pur-
chase and for every pound of manu-
featured product that comes in our
doors.
Now. this creates a hardship on the
butcher, and particularly in these
times it is, a burden TO carry our GUS

In order to offset the little incon-

BEAUTY CHATS
Early Wrinkles.

There Is a period of roughly ten
years when wrinkles mean tiredness
and Illness, or simply carelessness:
when, with a little attention, they
can be smoothed away and the skin
made as fresh and young as a girls.
The period varies. Usually Ii is be-
tween thirty and forty, though some
women, the nervous, rundown sort,
begin to wrinkle earlier.
There comes an Inevitable time
when neither massage nor stimulants
do more than lessen the wrinkles,
when nothing will take them all
away. But let US not speak about
that today! There are millions of
women on the bOrderland of middle
age, women who may look their years
part OF the day, but who want to
look younger the rest Of the time.
Well, then, stimulate the skin. Try
at first the ordinary stimulating
treatment, a minute of steaming with
a cloth wrung from hot water held
over the face, fairly brisk massage
with any sort of good cold cream
one made with vegetable oil for pref
erence-removal Of the cream with
q hot wet cloth, a cold rinse and an
astringent. At first nearly any as
tringent will do, but as the wrinkles
grow deeper longer massage and
stronger astringent will be required.
Ice Is ideal. Its use Otter massage
has often been the making of fine,
healthy complexion. After such a
treatment the early wrinkles will
have gone entirely and will not re-
turn for hours. Indeed such treat

Furniture to Fit Funds.

Furniture and funds. many bride
finds, have a close relationship. And
that is why. unless she carefully
thinks out her purchases before she
reaches the store, the amount of
money at her command refuses to
spread itself to cover all the pieces
she needs.
So before the bride sets out with
g. pocketbook full of furniture
money in hand she should be equip
ned with two other things as we'll
A. we'll worked out list and diagram
of the interior of her house.
First of all, she should take all the
measurements of floors and stair
ways-wherever she wants rugs. car
pets, linoleum or mating. THESE
She can indicate on the diagram, and
scheme intended for each room. SO
arranged. the diagram will not only
enable the bride to study the size
and locations of the rooms and decide
what furniture she needs for them,
but it will also show the salesman
exactly what she wants. Then she
should let her list show. opposite the
name of each piece, the estimated
price she expects to pay for it.
Furniture economies are a matter
for Judgment For instance, you may
buv cheap bedstead-but never a
cheap spring or mattress. 1t is sell
dom wise to "economize" on rugs; for
though IL first-class rug may cost
much more than a second-rate one,
that cost.
