place in a piece of smooth red
wood. The baby quickly learned to
hit these on the head. And since
that time there has been scarcely
a day when this boy has not used
a hammer.
Even a very small child is less
apt to show interest in toys which
have been tumbled carelessly into
a box or basket. But if a few spe-
cial favorites are placed in order
upon a chair or small table beside
the play pen he will quickly make
choice which will often keep
him busy for some time.
For this reason the playthings
should not be piled helter-skelter
in a box under the bed or couch
or in a tub on the back porch
where they are hard to find. There
should be a place for the toys,
even tho simply made of boxes
placed cupboard fashion. And from
the first the child should be en-
couraged to enjoy helping to put
his things away. If his boxes OF
blocks, games, books, trains, mar
bles. animals and what not have
their own places in his cupboard,
when old enough he will like to
take entire charge. Of them and
will keep them in order himself
AS the child developes, having
la place for his treasures where ne
can see them, get them easily, and
find them unbroken encourages
him to use them more. And learn
ing to make good use of these
playthings will lead to inventive
ness. There will be pirates and
ships; Indians with teepees and a
knowledge of Wild plants and ami
mails; cowboys who can ride fiery
steeds and every now and then
there will be railroad with trains
carrying passengers or freight and
a lake in the back yard where
boats can easily sail.
"All the other boys" will gather
to play where they are welcome
to use the string, the hammers,
nails, tacks and saws. Then does
the thoughtful mother receive her
reward, for her boy is at home and

GRADE DANGEROUS

the Clements flat, just this side

bus, carrying a full load of visit

Sunday evening, bruising nearly
all of the occupants, but none SER
iously. r..
Tuesday the tank truck of the
Union Oil Co. got too near the
edge of the grade, which caved off,
letting the truck roll over gently
in the mud of the ditch. The driv-
er was not hurt, having jumped
before tn e truck went over. The
recent we elk of rain and snow has
softened up the fill to such an ex-
tent that heavily loaded cars cave
in when driven too near the edge
Of the grade. - .....

engrossing.

The plan as to the Payette or
Black Canyon unit contemplates
spending $4,000 in completing
surveys and studies next year, and
beginning construction of this unit
in 1882 with an initial appropria-
ton of one million, a million and
a half a year for the. three ensu-
ing years, and complete this unit
with an appropriation of 1884,
600 in 1886.
The immediate important expen-
diture on the Minidoka would be
81, 100000 on power development
at American Falls, to be followed
by further power development at
the American Falls dam in 1881,
estimated to cost an additional ST.
GIL 600. There is need for an ap-
preparation of only $4,000 to COM
plete the American Falls reser-
voir. and this money will be asked
at the coming session of congress
There is also need this coming year
for $25,, 1000 for power development
at the Minidoka power plant and
$4,000 for damage on the south
side pumping division. Beginning IN
1880 the secretary would start
building the great north side
pumping unit to cost SIS, 1000
and on account of which the high
da m at American Falls was de-
signed. The secretary suggests the
appropriation of $1,0O0,OOO year
for three years ending in 1882.
then $1,250,O0O, a final appropria-
ton of $919,0O0 in 1884 to COM
plete this unit.
Oregon expenditures proposed
by the secretary look principally
to completing the Owyhee and
Vale projects, the former at a
cost of $17,714,000 to be spread
over seven years land the Vale to
cost So, 115, 1000 to be completed in
four years. ~
