With Patterson Aviators.
-
Aviators will storm Boise during the
Fourth of July celebration to he held
tn this city covering a period of three
days. This announcement was author
ized by the committee which has suc
ceeded in closing a contract with the
Patterson aviators. There will be aero
plane battles in the air, and exhibition
flights of aeroplane mall delivery, an
aeroplane race and standard
tions.
The aeroplane battle, featuring aero
planes, is as nearly as possible an exact
reprod. tien of actual encounters that
have taken place in the Eur. pean war.
In announcing it the aeroplane man
agement says:
"The crowds are told by megaphone
that a hostile aeroplane has been sight-
ed app oaching . nd that a machine will
ascend from the grounds to defend
against attack. II faces turn upward
toward the hostile aeroplane away

Save Your Fruit From Damage*
T HE widespread increase of the codling moth and other insects injuri
ous to fruit trees causes an annual loss to growers of seven million
dollars a year. The surest way for you to prevent your fruit from
being wormy or badly damaged is to carry out a regular plan of spray
ing with some reliable material.

NEW PROCESS ARSENATE OF LEAD
is a general iniecticide for all leaf-eating insecti. It is superior to many
other brands on the market, because it contains the arsenic in exactly the
right proportion and the proper chemical combination, thus insuring a
material that will not injure or scorch the foliage but is sure death to in
sects feeding on the leaves. It is extremely miscible in water and wUl
combine readily with Lime-Sulfurand Bordeaux Mixture. Light in grav
ity, it remains well in suspension so that a uniformly poisonous spray

Memorial to Union Veter
ans in "Silent Camp" of
Morris Hill Cemetery.
The proposed monument to deceased
ur.ion soldiers of Idaho for the Silent
Camp section of Morris Hill cemetery,
for which funds are now being; raised,
is in charge of the Women's Relief
Corps, the auxiliary to the local post
of the Grand Army of the Republic.
That body of patriotic women plans to
expend a sum not exceeding $1500 for
this monument. Of that amount the
corps has contributed $100 from its
own fund. The base of the monument,
is to be constructed of first class Penn
sylvania granite and will be about
eight feet in height. The statue of the
young soldier, "at rest," will be six
feet high and will be made of the best
Vermont marble. The concrete base
will raise the monument to a height
of 15 feet. The monument will weigh
two and one-half tons. Situated at
the highest point in the cemetery, the
soldiers' monument will be most con
spicuous.
At the foot of the monument are the
graves of 42 deceased soldiers. Across
the drive are the graves of 88 other
soldiers, which include such honored
names as Joseph C. Thrailkill, Alfred
Eoff, Dr. A. Friedline, Brigadier Gen
eral John Green, U. S. A., Captain C. C.
Glenn. Rev. S. T. Hawkins, J. S. D.

HAVE SHARP TILT
Herrington Inquires About
Attorneys Appearing in
Sunday Theater Case.
Councilman Herrington and Davis
had a short but sharp tilt at a meet
ing of the city council Saturday aft
ernoon when Mr. Herrington wanted
to know why the city was in the case
concerning the Sunday opening of the
motion picture shows and declared that]
it was only a matter between Harry
S Kessler and the motion picture peo
ple J. P. Pope, city attorney, in
formed him that the case had been
brought against the mayor and coun
cilmen upon a writ of prohibition and
he. as city attorney, defended the case.
Mr. Herrington contended the case
would not have been brought had the
referendum petition not been filed and
wanted to know who authorized the
other attorneys to act.
Councilman Davis explained that the
men had never been authorized to act
and had upon their own initiative en
tered the case as friends of the court.
Councilman Herrington contended that
there should be some guarantee from
them that they would not present a
bill io the city, whereupon Council
man Davis declared that the commis
sioner of public finance was trying
to make a mountain out of a mole hill
and should know that the men had
not been engaged to act as attorneys
and therefore could not collect pay,
hut that they hod entered the case as
friends of the court, as men who were
interested in the outcome of a public
question. He added that Mr. Her
rington did not seem .versed in the
law. Mr. Herrington 'etorted that per
haps he was not as he had not hung
around the court house as much as
Mr. Davis. The dispute was ended by
the mayor calling for a motion to ad
journ.

YOUR LAST CHANCE
To Get Very Large, Grafted, Hardy ENGLISH WALNUT TREES
At the Price of Ordinary Shade Trees .
THIS OPPORTUNITY IS AFFORDED YOU BECAUSE A PROMOTER ORDERED THESE TREES to
plant a twenty-acre commercial nut orchard and when the trees arrived (for which he was to pay cas[h) endeavored to get
the trees on tune and have me promote his enterprise at my expense as he has ingeniously had others do for him at their
expense.
I have a limited number of these trees left to offer you and I am keeping them especially dormant and they are i
cellent condition for planting.
Every customer receiving these trees is surprised at the unusually large fine straight trees and
have been received froip practically all points in southern Idaho and this season will mark the wide
high grade hardy grafted trees in our state and which should have been done
You have been interested in my articles about the many
English Walnut Trees thriving in Idaho and my endeavor
to encourage this a« a valuable industry for Idaho. I have
mentioned at other times the many places where the trees
growing in southern Idaho and the commercial acreage
now being planted as a result of these efforts. But a re
view of some of the facts will be of interest.
Some of the English walnuts growing here in Boise i
about 50 years old and producing yields of about fifteen
bushels per tree. Others are about 22 years old and vielding

My ten-acre tract of English walnuts bore some the sec

how early the high grade grafted trees begin to bear.
For commercial planting the trees
feet apart and this makes 27 trees to the acre,
yields 1 have mentioned per tree and those nuts selling at
wholesale at 15c per pound, you can e|asilv figure what this
means in revenue per acre as compared with other farm
and fruit crops.
I am going to sell these trees at practically the cost of
ordinary shade trees and this will bé the first time that
Idaho planters are afforded an opportunity to get such high
grade nut trees so cheap. The eastern nurseries charge
from $2.00 to $3.00 each for grafted trees on a root that
makes a slow growing tree and send you a walnut tree that
is about two to three feet tall, while the trees I am now
offering are eight feet tall and on a root that makes a rap
idly growing tree and the price is less than half of what the
eastern nurseries charge for grafted trees and less than
many charge for small seedling trees.
If you are interested in getting a go 3d shade, ornamental
and utility tree and one that requires no care here as to
spraying and which fruit is easily kept and contains three
times more nourishment than a beefsteak considering the
equal weight of each, then select an English walnut tree
and grow some of the meat you eat.

As a shade and ornamental tree there is no better.
It is
a rapid growing tree after the first year and one tree I know
made a growth of 30 feet tall and 30 feet spread at the
eighth season, and the same season bore two bushels of
nuts of the very best quality.
The special root on which these trees are grafted causes
them to make a rapid growth, hut many grafted tree
on a root that makes a slowly growing tree.
The trees I am offering are very hardy and will stand a
temperature of 30 degrees below zero. The special advan
tage of this variety I am offering is that it is the latest of all
the walnuts to bloom in the spring and much later than all
of our deciduous fruit trees and hence escapes the late
spring frosts and will bear annually.

then all of them drop at practically the same time, hence
the advantage of being able to clean up the leaves at one
operation instead of the numerous operations to clean up
the fallen leaves of most of the shade trees. The leaves fall
ing all at one time is an advantage to the fruit in that all of
the energy of the tree goes to the rapid maturing of
the nuts.
Many have the mysterious notion that the growing of
the English walnut requires a citrus climate, and this is
true of some varieties, but even in California the tender
varieties are being discarded for the hardy and better type
of tree, and which kind I am now offering.
