Int mt Home,

George N. lift, United States consul
in Warsaw, Poland, was Twin Falls
visitor on Friday, accompanied by
William Wallin of the Pocatello Trib-
une. Mr.. lift had not been in this
section of the state for several years
and he was amazed at the develop
ment. Although comparatively young
in the consular service, Mr.. lift, who
was formerly editor Of the Pocatello
Tribune, has made wonderful advance
ment. He started five years ago with
the Chatham, Ontario, consulate. Lat
or he was promoted to Annaberg, Ger
many, where he did such good work
that he was advanced to Warsaw, a
very important post.-Twin Falls

State Fair at Caldwell.

The following extract is taken from
an article written by Horace Adds,
special correspondent for the Rural
Spirit, on the Boise fair. Coming as 1t
does from a writer who is thoroughly
in touch with the agricultural inter-
est of the Northwest, 1t should have
weight in the consideration Of the
project of locating the state fair at
Caldwell. The last two fairs in this
county have fully demonstrated that
with assistance from the state, a fair
can be established at this point which
would be credit to the state and at
the same time be If immense benefit
to the iagriculturistsao of the entire coun-
try:
II referred in my report of the Cald-
we'll fair to the idea of state fair
there. Canyon county has made
good" The wide-awake stockmen of
that county would like to enter state
competition and they believe the as
| ISOLATION at Caldwell would, with pro-
per state aid, get up fair that the
entire state would be proud Of. They
are right, too, and the matter is al
most sure to be brought before the
next legislature. While Caldwell has
tile advantage of location, most people
prefer to visit Boise when they go to
the state fair, because 1t is the capital
and the largest city in the state. But
If the Caldwell Commercial club takes
hold of the matter and pushes it Boise

Difference in Oxford and Shropshire
TyDeS.

4yYCSs
To the casual observer, the differ
ence in the characteristics Of Shrop-
shire and Oxford breed are so slight
that individuals of the two breeds are
frequently misclassified. An inquiry
bearing on this matter calls for COM
ments. The difference between the
two breeds, however, becomes very
apparent to person who can see
sheep character and form at all, after
a little study Of specimens Of the two
different breeds. Prof. Plumb in his
book entitled TYPES and Breeds of
Farm Animals" sets down the charac-
teristics of the Oxford-Down in the
following comprehensive terms:
"At superficial glance, this breed
closely resembles the Shropshire. 1t
Is hornless, has dark brown face and
legs, is wooded over the forehead, and
is typical mutton sheep. However,
under average conditions, the Oxford
Down is lighter brown than the Shrop-
shire, Is not so heavily wooded over
the head, though with longer. more
open fleece. In early days the Oxford
face was speckled or mottled brown
and white or gray, and the fleece was
rather long and open, quite sugges-
tive of the long-wool type, as might
be expected, considering the Cotswold
blood used. The modern Oxford, how
ever, has been bred to be uniformly
brown in the face and the fleece has
been bred shorter and more compact
although at the present time this is
essentially the largest of the middle
wool breeds. The head Of the Oxford
is rarely wooded much below the fore
head, and the ears tend to be some
what long and thin and free Of wool
AS rule Oxfords show the distinctive
mutton form, with strong breadth o
back and excellent leg of mutton. Th'
, skin of the Oxford Down, like tn,
Shropshire, frequently lacks color, be
ing blush tinted and lacking the pinl
! color desirable. Perhaps no breed Q
sheep has shown greater improvement
in recent years than this. The size q
the Oxford Down places 1t in the frs
rank. Rams have been shown ths
weighed above 400 pounds, and q
a pounds for the mature male is
weight easily attained. Mature eve
should weigh close to 200 pounds {
v more"
This sums up the type of the Oxfof
IS very clearly, especially when contras
ed to the description OF the Shrol
Il shire which we quote from the san
authority:
q "This breed is of the medium VIC
class and is somewhat heavier an
re larger than the Southdown. The fac
