JACK FROST ON BLACK LIST
Smudge Pot Will Be Used As Never
Before to Save Valuable Crops.
If the efforts which are being made
by John U. McPherson, state horti
cutturalist, are successful, there will
be a system of smudging and other
forms of protecting orchards In. the
state this year which has never been
equaled and which will mean the sav
ing of thousands of dollars to the
growers. Co-operation is the thing
which will be impressed by Mr. Mc
Phersci.li, who has been successful hi
obtaining E. A Beals, district weath
er forecaster for the northwest with
headquarters' at Portland, to appear
in Boise some time this week to talk
to the growers on the need of co-op
eration tail fi'gihtlinig frosts and on the
success which has been obtained
in this regard by the growers in oth
er parts of the northwest. The exact
date of Mr. Beall's appearance here
has not been decided ais yet but will
be announced' later.
Mr. McPherson, has likewise been
able to secure the co-operation of
Forecaster Wells of the Boise bu
reau ca di he proposes to carry the
campaign against Jack Frost through
out tiho state. It ifc his aim to get
the growers, not alone in the Boise
vaUey,tout kn the siti-te to hear Mr.
Beals and he will tryi to make ai date
for him at Twin Falls in order that
the growers in that district may get
the benefit of Mr. Beals' advise.
"The growers are not working to
gether ai.:d this condition will have to
be done away with before permanent
effect can: be ,obtained. About 10,000
acres of fruit land' are represented by
the growers of the Boise valley and

Austin Baker, m Cherokee Indian,
who was .recently released from the
co/ulnity jaiill after serving a year for
stealing a Navajo blanket, is in the
toils again. On Tuesday, at 1 o'clock
in the afternoon, he stole a horse,
which was tied at the rack on the
west side of the Idaho Lumber com
pany's office, and' which was the
property of ai Mr. Irwiin.
He rode the horse to Shelley and
there sold it to Fnaink Belcher, the
latter giving a check for the price of
the horse. Soon. after purchasing the
horse Belcher learned that it was
stolen and the Indian, 'having re
turned to Blackfoot, was followed by
Dim to this city. W. H. Kesti er,
deputy sheriff, engaged in conversa
tion with the Indian and telling him
of the stolen horse, offered him $50
for information that would secure
the horse. The redskin told thrt he
k ew where the horse was, aind was
than arrested and placed in jail.
Wednesday afternoon, he confessed
that he had stolen the horse, and an
effort will be made to have him tried
in a federal court and sent to the
United States prison at Leawenworth,
Kansas. Baker is quite an artist and
hss decorted the interior at the jail
with hds drawings of wild life. He
is a had actor, and seems to enjioy
life in Jill as he spends all his idle
moments trying to break in whenever
he is released.
