AS for Mickey Walker. last Winter
the writer walked into Il place where
a group was listening over the radio
to the doingS in night club. Finally
the announcer said
Aha, Here comes our old friend
Mickey Walker"
Right then and there the handwrit-
ing appeared on the wall. and the
writing said that Mickey and his title
would not be harnessed together for
long.
Against Dundee he fought with all
his gameness and spirit, and for the
first two rounds it looked as though
he would make Joe sorry he entered
the ring. But after the second the
fight was all Joe's, and the profuse
bleeding of a reopened cut over
Mickeys eye made it necessary for
the referee to stop the bout in order
10 save the former champion serious
injury.

play.
This IS the best of practice with the
irons. In the first place there ism
the pivot with the irons that the
woods require. and TO keep the right
heel down until the ball is clicked
adds a fine solidity to the swing which
the iron shot really requires.

Gated in Fig. ., has a tendency to
release the tension of the entire right
side. Also 1t has a tendency to give
the right shoulder d looSeneSS or
dropping which isn't wanted at this
point. Letting the right heel come
up, too, has a tendency to let the
right shoulder go into the ball before
the clubhead gets there, which is bad.
This shoulder should shoot into the
ball with the clubhead, never before it.
At first, keeping the right heel
firmly planted on the ground, YOU
will perhaps notice a feeling of stiff
ness and some awkwardness about
YOUR swing when the clubhead gets
there. This feeling will be pro-
nounced indeed if you keep the right
heel down too long. There is time
to give the right side its freedom, and
the time is just when the clubhead

BASE BALL SECRETS

All good batters keep their eyes
on the ball all the while they are in
the batter's box. You will also no
tice that their heads are invariably
still from the moment the pitcher
takes possession of the ball until
they hit it. The batter who shakes
his head is not likely to connect
with the pitch, as any movement of
the head makes it more difficult 20
see accurately. All good battens
have fine eyesight, and in order to
use it they keep their heads still
and their eyes on the ball.

HIGHWAY MAY
ERECT BUILDING
Quite Likely That State De
partment Will Erect
Warehouse In
This City

Rich Thompson, supervisor of the
state highway in this section, has
received word from the Department
Of Public Works at Boise to secure
a 100 foot front location on the state
highway for the purpose of a stor-
age warehouse and sort Of a central
station for the road system in this
immediate vicinity. The building
will be used for the storage of ma
chinery and inasmuch as tentative
arrangements have been made with
the Village Council for water it is
presumed that possibly a rest room
may also be included.
Mr. Thompson has sent in infor-
nation relative to the most accept
able plots of ground that he has been
able to locate in the city and with
out doubt an announcement from the
state department will be forthcom-
ing in the very near future.

TAX COLLECTIONS
REPORTED GOOD
County Treasurer's Office
Reports Collections This
Year Greatly In Ex-
cess Over 1924

Deputy County Treasurer B. H.
Smith reports that collections of the
first half of taxes in December were
far in excess of those paid in last
year by an amount of approximate
ly $15.303.33 Delinquent collec-
tions also exceeded those of 1924 by
$6,130.S7 Collections to date amount
to $158,828.S7 and the delinquent
collections amounted to $10,69S.33.
This excess is caused by the larg-
er number of taxpayers paying the
full amount of their taxes, which
were due in December, instead of al
lowing the second half to go until
June, 1926.
Elmore county now boasts of be-
ing practically on cash basis. All
county warrants are now being hon
ored with cash with the exception of
about $25OO in road warrants and

SHOSHONE FARMER

Kasper Nichols Sells Over
Hundred Thousand Eggs
In 1925; Paid Him To
Gull Down Flock

Kasper Nichols, who goes in for
poultry raising quite extensively on
his ranch north of Shoshone, take:
good care of his focks and keeps an
accurate record of egg production.
In 1925 the Nichols flock of White
Leghorn hens produced 1O2,3S4 eggs.
The year started with 500 hens and
ended with 500, the average produc-
tion per hen being around 175 eggs
for the year.
Mr. Nichols says that the best
month was last May, when his hens
laid 1929 eggs for him. December
was the lowest month and netted but
5,425 eggs. Eggs averaged about
&c each in price over the past year,
so it may be seen that better than
$1,000 was taken in for eggs, to say
nothing Of birds sold.
In 1924 Mr.. Nichols received 100,
129 eggs from a flock of 500 hens.
This flock was culled down for the
year of 1925, and the egg production

BEST YIELDS FROM
EARLY SEEDED PEAS
Growers Should Not Lose
Sight of Fact That Crop
Thrives In Cool
Weather

Farmers who contemplate seeding
field peas should not lose sight OF
the fact that the crop is cool
weather loving one, says H. w. HUI
bert, University of Idaho agronomist.
Because of this characteristic early
seeding is essential if maximum
Yields are to be secured, Mr.. Hubert
concludes.
Even If the farmer is growing the
earlier maturning varieties seeding
should not be delayed in the spring.
Eight years data secured by the de-
partment Of agronomy from expert
ments conducted on the University
farm have shown that early seeding
has double the value Of late seeding.
Pas seeded just as soon as the seed
bd can be prepared in the spring
have always produced the highest
yields When seeded two weeks lat
er the yields have been satisfactory
but never as good as those from the
earlier planting.
Yields from peas seeded four weeks
after the first season have been less
than half as good as tn earlier seed
ing. In the drier seasons late seed
ed peas have often not returned the
