Some Reasons Why

A very commendable enterprise has
been launched in this city, and it is 60
ing to be success, but not without Its
reverses and struggles. We refer to the
Blackfoot Steam Laundry.
1t is no small thing to establish and
operate laundry with modern equip
ment, and until recent years they we're
not attempted except in cities OF several
thousand inhabitants. We are getting
so many modern things, SO many lux
uries that were unknown or out OF the
reach of the rank and file of people
q generation ago. we scarcely appreciate
some Of our opportunities and are apt
to let good institutions drag along or
perish just for lack Of loyalty to them.
People have long been wanting mod
ern laundry, and as early as 1895, some
of the leading spirits Of the town whose
work is apparent in the V. I. s., the Cur
rent Event Club and the public park
which has long since passed into private
hands, discussed plans for relieving each
individual home of the waste and druid
gerry of wash day But ten years pass
ed before 1t was attempted, and then by
q private enterprise instead Of by coop
Grafton as at first suggested. Nobody
assumed any risk or burden but the
man or men who put in the plant. How
ever, there is one thing they should
have, and that is the patronage Of their
home people. Those who patronize a
laundry should patronize the home laun-
dry. If the work is as good as is done
at Pocatello, Ogden or Salt Lake it is a
serions mistake to send the work away.
If it is not so good, the home patrons
should exercise patience, and give the
home institution time to overcome the
difficulties besides aiding with suggest.
ions and observations which might be
helpful.
We call attention to this matter of
our own accord, because we have OBJ
served that there is division of patron
age, which if persisted in, might ruin, a
good enterprise and be an injury to the
community. Any town is better for
having shops and factories; places where
men and women can have profitable en-
ployment. 1t adds to the volume Of
business; it adds to the comforts and

Death of Frank Wasley

DIED--Friday morning, January 1S 1907
Frank J. Wasley, in his 23rd year.
The funeral services over the body ot
Frank, second son of Mrs Thomas Was
ley, were conducted at the M. E. Church
Sunday, Jan. 20, at 2 o'clock p. m., by
the Rev. G. G. Haley, the pastor. The
sermon was beautiful in It's simplicity
and most appropriate as the closing
chapter of life that had been except
ional in its manliness
Frank j. Wasley was born in Park
City, Utah, on May 25, 1884, and came
with his parents to Blackfoot in the
following July, they settling on what is
now known as the Wasley ranch east OF
the village.
Frank grew to manhood amid Nat
ure's ever changing beauties and he
profted well from her kindly teachings
In 1893 his father, Thomas Wasley
died, leaving his mother the sole guild
ing star of the four children - a
daughter, now Mrs. Julia Hayball, OF
Idaho Falls; Howard, now of Pocatello;
and Frank and Thomas Jr. Frank, al
though but 8 years of age at the time,
became at once the head of the family,
a place he filled in its entirety to the
day of his death.
Franks character was as near per-
fection as it seems possible for man to
attain. His life was that of the true
Christian. There was no hypocrisy, no
double dealing in his makenp. He had
none of the petty vices and bad habits
of most of us. He was hard and faith
full worker, perhaps too hard, and when
his labors were over at the store Boyle
Bros & Co., where he had worked three
years) he cane to his mother and work
ed for her com fort, making home beau
tiful, until the twilight faded. He was
happy in his labors and an idle moment
would have been torture. He anticipa-
pated his mothers every wish; he was
gentlemanly and friendly with all, and
possessed that sterling quality-friend
ship for animals.
His early passing to the Great I'm
known would be unbearable to the
mother were it not for the satisfaction
which his worthy character brings ever
to the mind's-eye vision.
The sincere esteem in which he was
held by all who knew him was well at
tested by an attendance at the funeral
services of a congregation which over
taxed the capacity of the church, many
not being able to gain admittance.
In response to kilograms, the children
hastened to their mothers side, while
her two sisters, Mrs. VIM. Veale, of
Butte, Mont, and Mrs. A. Fuge, of Salt
Lake, came as soon as word was receiv-
ed; as did also John Wasley and wife,
Chas. Weeks and wife, and Isaac Tre-
gier, near relations.
The demise of this manly young man
is severe loss to the community and a
loss to the world. Such characters are
only too few. We can only say of such
They shall hunger no more
Neither thirst any more
For the Lamb that is In the midst of the
Throne
Shall lead them to everlasting fountains of
water.

day now. He will use two incubators
this spring, and We hope to give you his

We hope others will study the poultry

poultry can be added to the tables of

AS the Argentine farmer either is
watching his tender wheat crop come
to the front after hard winter and Is
wondering whether the green bug, the
cutworm, the rust or some other pest
will lay 1t low, or else has sold last
years crop long ago and has the
money in his pocket, we do not see
that he cuts much ice in the specu-
lative world at this moment, although
for convenience prices are supposed to
hinge on the success or failure Of the
grain in his fields. While we are just
banking up our houses and banking
the coal man the Argentine farmers
fields are awakening to life with the
breath OF spring and the mud is some
thing scandalous in the river bottoms.
To hear some of our speculative
geniuses on the board of trade talk one
might think that the Argentine agri-
culturist could touch a button and
produce a crop when he desired, but
he cannot. He must wait on the sea
sons the same as the rest of US.

The Goat and ruberculosIs.
IDAHO

Nothing in the history of science Is
more instructive, according to the ex-
perts who prepared the recent report
of the British commission on tubercu-
losis, than the vast difficulties expert
enced in propagating the use of the
milk of the goat, says Current Litera-
ture. Physicians of the highest emf
nence have affirmed that in the milk

possible solution of the problem OF tu-
-berculosis. In saying that the goat is
not subject to tuberculosis. DR.. Finley
Bell, of the New York Academy OF
Medicine, is In agreement with Sir
William Broadbent. He is also SUP
ported by the evidence of leading Eng.
lish goatkeepers, of every publication
concerning goats and of the distin-
guished Prof Nocard, who stated re-
Gently that of the 10000 goats and
kids brought to Paris for slaughter
every spring the meat inspectors had
failed to find a single case OF tubercu-
losis Nevertheless, with the excep-
ton of the members of the British
aristocracy, very few anglo-Saxons
have profited by the lesson of these
truths. Those scientists who go SC
far as to defy any authority to produce
a single case of tuberculosis among Q
population using goats milk to the
exclusion of cows milk, receive very
little attention. The circumstance
seems all the more surprising In view
of what the investigators on tht
British commission call the superio
richness and flavor of the milk of thu
goat to that of the COW.
