AWAIT RESULT
of FEM ROAD
BOND VOTING
District Will Ballot Saturday
on $4,000 Issue to Be Used
in Building N. & S. Highway
New Work Will Be Important
Link in State Turnpike Sys-
tenn; % Majority Needed

Attention of all Idaho centers on
the Fem Highway district, In order
to determine whether that district, -
a special election, set for Saturday or
this week, authorizes bond issue OF
S35, 900, as the districts share in cost
of construction of the North and
South highway.
With exception of a stretch OF road
between Grangeville and Cottonwood,
the North and South highway is vir-
tually completed from Weiser to Lew
iston. a distance of more than 25O
miles. The Fem district, at a pre-
vious election, defeated bond issue,
and consequently no part of the North
and South highway has been built In
that district.
Has No Bonded Debt
Fem has no bonded Indebtedness,
and at the same time is one Of the
richest highway districts in Idaho
county. It's farm land is Of the best,
and it is pointed out that the district
can well afford to bond itself for
s35. 900 in order to build the road. II
the district raises $35, 900, the sum OF
S4S.33O will be available from the
federal government to apply on the
road in the Fem section, and 1t is
quite likely that additional funds Will
be forthcoming from the state for the
work.
The Fem district has never utilized
its share of the two million dollar
state highway bond issue Of few
years ago, and the district IS share OF
this money will be available for the
North and South highway in the Fem
district. should Saturdays election
carry. The districts share is more
than $500, and it cannot be used for
any other than state highway pur-
poses within the district.
Contrast i'm Roads
From Cottonwood to Lewiston, the
North and South highway is surfaced
with crushed rock, and has been IN
splendid condition all winter ana
spring. Automobiles have been whiz-
zing over the road, while Fem and
Grangeville, as well as Whitebird and
the Salmon river country were cut
off from towns between Cottonwood
and Lewiston, because no highway
has been built between Grangeville
and Cottonwood. This condition can
be remedied if the Fem highway dis
trict votes the $50, 900 bonds Saturday,
for the Cottonwood and Grangevflle
highway districts have expressed will
ingness to proceed with construction
and connect with the road at the
edges of the Fem district, as soon
as Fem decides to act.
While two-thirds majority is neces-
sary to carry the bond election at
Fem, Saturday, all qualified electors
NAV vote. There are no property quail
ifications for voters, it is pointed out
by Gtangeville attorneys who have
cone into the law on the question.
voters on bond issues in cities and
villages must be taxpayers, but the
law does not require that electors IN
bond elections in highway districts
own property. They must be resi-
dents of the district and possess the
qualifications of the ordinary voter
Polling place will be at the Fem
schoolhouse. and the polls Will De
open from 8 in the morning to az
night.

Rearing Wild Eurbearers.

Important progress has been made In
Investigations pertaining to the rails
Ing Of Wild fur-bearing animals in cap
tivity. says the Scientific American.
Fur farms are reported from % states
where foxes, sliunks. minks. oposSums.
martens. mussrats, squirrels and heav-
ers are raised
II is estimated that 500 ranchers are
raising silver foxes in the United
States, that they have between 1900
and 10000 foxes in captivity, and that
the value OF the investment Is about
SS,0OOOO0.
The discovery Of the fact that mar
tens breed the last of July and in Au.
gust has solved the problem which hns
heretofore prevented the successful
rearing Of these animals in captivity
and has opened up an important field
to the fur farmer.

New sugar Beet plooer

1t Is said that machine for top
ping and digging sugar beets prom
ises to eliminate much Of the back
breaking work of harvesting. The
apparatus resembles a potato digger
in general outline, but In front of the
lifts that remove the roots from the
ground is n revolving disk twenty
inches in diameter, so adjusred hy a
spring and roller that II measures the
cutting distance from the top Of the
beet instead of from the ground. I'm.
mediately behind the disk are two
lifts that remove the beets from the
ground and deliver them to an end
less chain elevator that frees them OF
dirt and dumps them out behind the
machine. AS the top and head of the
sugar beet contains an acid that
counteracts the sugar In the rest Of
the root. a harvester must measure
the beets and cut them at the righ.
place.

Francis Shoemaker
Speaks for Bob

Francis Shoemaker, a former Rem
Vile county man who got the radical
bug during the war and cut up some
high capers, made a trip back here
from Green Bay, Wis.,, in an areoplane
last week. 1t appears he delivered q
speech at Montevideo and the Monte
video News had the following to say
concerning it:
F. H. Shoemaker, a Wisconsin edi-
tor, invaded Montevideo Saturday af-
ternoon and spoke to few dozen peo-
pie in the shade of the trees in front
of the News office in behalf of Bob
LaFollette for President. His speech
was one of the old-fashioned appeals
to prejudice, abundant with wild gen.
eralization and not tediously bur-
dened with fact.
Judging from the emphasis placed
upon it, the News reporter gathered
that one of the most important phases
of the campaign was the fact that he,
Mr.. Shoemaker, was taking his life
in his hands by flying over the North
west in an airplane to spread the
gospel of Robert. 1t cost him twenty
dollars day extra for insurance
alone to accomplish this spectacular
feat, and while nobody was unkind
enough to ask him, several wondered
if the contributions to the campaign
fund couldn't be expended more ju-
diciously by purchasing transporta-
ton la Henry Ford.
Outside of this the audience was
informed that there is a doctors trust
and undertakers' trust, in fact every
thing is trust. Those who didn'
hear him can never imagine how real
ly awful conditions are. He infer
red that when he was in the army,
he saw "them" burn the flesh from
the dead soldiers with acids and after
grinding up the bones, sell the pro
duct for fertilizer. (He admitted to a
News reporter after the speech that
he had not been in the army overseas
but that the reporter could see just
what he saw and as had seen it, in
certain photographs a certain fellow
, in Minneapolis, etc, etc. This was all
the work of the fertilizer trust but OF
course they were special privilege
outfit working hand-in-glove with cor
rupt officials. ss
To Bob LaFollette' was given the
credit for the meteoric ascent in the
price of farm products. He quoted
copiously from imaginary letters tt
Mr.. LaFollette from Fall, Sinclair
Doheny, Morgan, etc., in which these
gentlemen had mythically refused I,
contribute to his campaign fund.
While all those who will not vote
for LaFollette this fall are not neces
sarily crooks, the insinuation was
that they must be inane.-Olivis

The One Best Thing

At an old settlers meeting held
not far from here the other day, an
old man said: "This is one meeting
I attend because hunger for it. It
means meeting my old friends; and
the older I get l find that the one
treasure that l cannot afford to lose
is the treasure of friends. Life at
best gets lonely as we grow old.
Our only safeguard is to keep close
grip on friendship, and to walk along
with those we love-" That is indeed
a truth that all men come to know
sometime. Happy the man who
learns it in time. All temporary
possessions may be lost, and if they
are man need not be poor; but the
man who has lost the sustaining pow
er that comes from the other fellows
love is poor indeed. Cicero said that
Friendship is the surest bulwark
againstsevil. 1t is also the surest
guarantee Of happiness, content, and
inspiration.-Murrav County Herald.
