A movement that has every prospect
Of developing into the provision of mo-
dest though comfortable homes for the
tens of thousands of homeless victims
of the recent Pacific coast disaster has
been inaugurated by a former Ottum-
wa resident, one William T. Love, who
made this city his home from 1862 to
1873. The following communication,
calling attention to the proposition and
asking for publication, has been sent
out by Mr.. Love to editors of American
newspapers:

Press Club Meets.

Monday evening there was q
meeting Of the Blackfoot Press
Club at the Office Of the Bingham
County Democrat, and nearly all
the printers and publishers Of the
Grove City we're present to parti-
cipate in the social features that
introduced the questions Of bust
ness which followed.
The first hour was spent in
chatting and storytelling, and the
second hour was devoted to bust
ness. The "Dark list was care
fully reviewed, and names whic'l
had been placed in the doubtful
list were placed on the s'clear
list" or on the ssblack list'' accord
ing to the integrity. or lack Of it

shown in their transactions since
the last meeting. Cases Of ap-
parent defrauding Of publishers
were gone over, and the secretary
was instructed to take up one case
and present the ultimatnm Of the
association to the advertiser, re-
quiring him to fulfill his agree
ments Of the past before entering
into any new ones with members
Of the club. The club is working
to formulate system in their bust
ness affairs which will give to
each patron q square deal, and
special privileges to none; dis
couraging petty dickering with the
public, and making it easter to do
business on simple 'straight-up"
methods.

Sam Jones at PocatelIo.

Sam Jones the noted evangelist
will speak at Pocatello on Thurs
day evening, January 18th, at
Wright's hall. Those wishing to
hear him can have the opportunity
at that time. The Dallas, Texas,
Morning News makes the follow
ing comment on his visit there:
s'The noted Georgian was given
q rousing reception at the city
Hall last night. As many persons
as could crowd into the commod-
ious auditorium Of the City Hall
we're on hand last night to hear a
lecture by Rev. Sam r. Jones on
I" A Medley Of Philosophy, Facts
and fun" The evangelist looks
older. There are more gray hairs
on his head than when he was last
with us. But his protruding lower
jaw still snaps with the same rat
trap precision, and last night he
made it evident that he had sacri-
feed none of his power as q
speaker. His wit was as spon-
taneous and unrestrained as ever
and there was all the spice Of
other days in what he said. He
forced peals of laughter from
blushing women and outlaws from
amused men, and flooded eyes
with tears that had . moment be-
fore sparkled with merriment.
His effort was characteristic and

Quick Work.
Ito be Continued.

Not long ago Constable Lyon,
Of Basalt told us to advertise .
certain estray COW, and dictated
some description Of the "critter. ''
Some way we got the hip brand
on the ribs, and the rib brand on
the hip, and after the paper came
ont the COW showed signs Of dis
tress. Mr.. Lyon wired us to
change the brands back to the
right place if,possible, which was
done, and the COW resumed her
usual habits. When the next is
sue of the paper came out the
owner called and got the COW.
The moral Of this story is that
every constable should write out
the description carefully himself.
Last Monday Miss Lemon lost
her purse with some money in it.
She gave the description Of the
purse to the Republican Office and
went on her way. This was set
in type and in a few hours she
found the purse, came back and
paid her bill and had money left.
The moral Of this is so plain that
he who runs may read.
A member of the Press Club
told story at a recent meeting
which represented that q man went
into printing house to advertise
a valuable knife which had dissp-
peared. After giving the editor
the description he concluded to pay
the bill and his subscription to
the paper as we'll. When he put
his hand in his pocket for the mon
ey he found the knife in his purse.
Another member Of the club Jump
ed up and said that If this formula
could be depended on to work in
all cases he would furnish knives
and pnrses both for some Of his
patrons who had done a little ad-
vertising and wanted the years
subscription thrown in. We don't
know whether he is trying it or
not, but you might ask him how
he is fixed for knives and things.

vile to the Yellowstone Park, and
several Blackfoot and Salt Lake
people will be pleased to learn
that they can sodn take the train
from either place, and step off on
their lands through which the new
road will pass.
For instance, Post Master Geo.
Wall of Blackfoot has a piece of
land in township 13 north, range
43 east, which the road kindly
cuts a corner off Of. Marshall

The Salt Lake Gun Club also has
a tract in the neighborhood. and
Harry Curtis, our deputy auditor
and record, J. A. Collins the O.
S. L. Agent here, FL. w. Curtis,
the genial hardware man at the
corner Of Main and Bridge streets,
Henry Simmons the deputy mar
shall; all these have reason to
smile audibly and pull down their
vests, because the line not only
comes right to them, but station
may be built in their back yard.
A resort may come into promin-
ence 10 the community because OF
the lands Of FL. B. Curtis or the
cold springs hardly, where tour.
lists from the east may recruit and
say, "verily, this equals the Cats
kills."
But to return to the cold hard
facts Of the case, the road will ex-
tend nearly due north from Marys-
vile 10 the north banks Of the
Buffalo River, then curve east
ward through townships 43, a.
and 45, crossing the continental
divide on the state line at Rea's
Pass. The road is completed to-
Marysville, and from there to the
line Of the park is ga miles, which
will be completed as soon as pos
sible.

More Indians Here.

The Lemhi Herald is authority
for the statement that arrange
ments have just been completed
by which the Lemhi Indians are
to be removed to the Ft. Hall Res
ervation and given lands in sever
atty. Also there will be- an annuity
of 81, 100000 a year for twenty
years for the tribe, consisting Of
: some seventy-six families, with a
total membership now Of 473 per-
sons.
The treaty was concluded last
Thursday, and chief Tindoy and
his people will probably be Grating
their baby carriages and cayuses
for shipment in the early spring,
The Herald says they have sus-
pended all work on their ranches,
and will probably move in March,
but we are guessing that the grass
will not be growing we'll between
the ties of their railroad 80 early,
and they may not walk the gang
plank so-to-speak till the pink
shows in the petals of the wild
roses. The coal famine will be
over by that time, and the worry
of moving will be Offset to some
extent by the chances Of getting a
tug at the line where they put on
the brakes to cast hook into the
tiver. Fl
Seventy-six families more Of
Indians in Bingham and Bannock
counties will not make much diff
erence, but still the 'sinslders"
would prefer to have that many
families come up from Zion, while
the ssoutsiders" think seventy-six
families right from the big prairies
would be acceptable. However,
Uncle Sam will locate them &C
cording to the treaty, and if they
don't behave he will spank them
just as promptly as If they were
Mormons or "outsiders." !"

Two thousand Captured.

Last Saturday there was rab-

Of Groveland, and 1900 Dummies
went into the corral, bound for
Bunnydom. A number Of dogs
were IN the roundup, and they
kept the rabbits charging desper
ately the wrong way half the time,
and myriads Of them broke through
the lines, gaining cover in the
rear. Tomorrow there will be
another drive on the same ground,
and people are requested to leave
their dogs at home, or tie Them
up if they succeed in getting to the
drive.

ole Farmers Institute.
Alex. MCPHERSON, former state
McPherson on the White Fly,

Alex. Mcpherson, former state
horticultural inspector, devoted
some time in the last institute to
the subject Of pests, in which he
showed a scientific reason why the
white fly seldom or never visits a
locality for two successive seasons.
In substance his talk covered these
points: +
Everything in nature is life
and activity in some form. Every
thing feeds upon something, and
in turn is fed npon. The grass in
the field grows by feeding on the
soil. This in turn is fed upon by
the herbivorous animals, buffalo,
cattle, elk, deer ETC., and they, in
the wild natural state are preyed
upon by the carnivorous or flesh
eating animals, such as wolves,
coyotes, cats, couger etc. Where
the herbage is abundant the her
blvori congregate in such numbers
that the herbs are used up or trod-
en- ont. The herbivori finding
themselves without food, pass to
other localities or die out, but in
the meantime they attract the car
nj yori, wolves and the like, in
great numbers. and if the herbiv-
ori do not die out from other
causes, they are thinned out and
made scarce by being preyed upon.
Then the carniverous animals find
ing scarcity Of food, leave or prey
upon one another and are reduced
in numbers. In time the grasses
spring up again and the same.
routine is repeated.
This illustrates common prin-
ciple Of nature which may also be
followed in the world Of insects.
The insect which feeds upon the
grass or plant, also has an enemy
which feeds upon it. Any great
number Of the first kind, the her.
bivorous insects, attracts great
numbers Of the second kind, the
carnivorous insects, and they fol-
low one another in rotation as in
the animal world.
Taking again the example Of the
animal kingdom, if the herbs are
the herbivori become
sickly and are an easier prey to
the carnivori, dead bodies Or car.
casses are numerous, and these at
tract the scavengers or eaters Of
putrld flesh, swine, bears, vermin
etc. When the carcasses have
disappeared the scavengers disap-l
pear also.
In some parts Of the country
crops have been destroyed byI
pests who have no known enemies,
and scientists are following them
up to discover some insect which
can be introduced among them at |
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1906-01-12

the critical time IN crop develop
ment to destroy the first pest.
This must be an insect which does
!, not thrive BY feeding on the crop
itself, but which likes to prey upon
the pest. Some Of the questions
yet to bssolved are, what insect is
the natural enemy Of the white
fys Can it be introduced quickly
enough to save the destruction Of
the beet? Is the white Fly a scav-
enger feeding on diseased or dead
condition Of the beet, or does the
so-called curly leaf in the beet ap-
pear as an affect Of the ravages Of
the fys Experience shows >that
the white fly does not appear every
year.
Mr.. Mcpherson spoke Of this
insect as the 'sleaf hopper, and
saId he had once taken advantage
Of their disposition to hop when
disturbed, by removing the ends Of
a coal oil can, coating the inside
with tar, and placing it on the
ground so it surrounded q beet,
which was covered with Leaf hop
pers, and then by rousing them
with stick, he got them to hop
over on the tar-covered sides OF
the can where they stuck, fast.
This was not recommended as a.
practical method for treating whole
fields Of beets, but simply as a
step in the study Of the pest. He
said that fall piowing brings myr-
lads Of insect eggs up and expos
es them to the sun, air and frost
which kill them, and mentioned
that there are insects that feed on
insect eggs as well as kinds that
prey upon the live insects, and
have an effect on the propagation
of the species the same as skunks
feed upon the eggs Of wild chick
ems, and the fish feed upon the
spawn of certain species Of the fin
ny tribes. Some Of the most inn
portant achievments Of the depart
ment Of agriculture are along the
line Of discovery and making use
of the natural enemies of crop
pests. The farmer Of yesterday |
had crop failure and simply ac-
cepted it, and tried again; some
times attributing it to the hand of
Providence as q punishment for
having too much the year before.
The farmer Of today recognizes
the fact that every condition mas
a cause,s and every effect has q
remedy or q preventative. He in
vokes the hand Of science to dis
cover the cause and the remedy |
for his case and tries again, not in
blind faith and repentance Of =
supposed sin, but in pluck and
