BY visiting a different locality each

the people who are subscribers to
papers having membership in the

about eastern Idaho and become ac-

people.
For the information of people who

This sheet has come to be known
as the Press Supplement, and is issu-
ed by the Eastern Idaho Press Club
for the use of its members. It is
prepared and printed under the di-
reetion of the chairman of the execu-
tive committee after each meeting of
the club, for the purpose of giving an
account of the meeting and to in
form the readers of the various pa
pers belonging to the club, of some of
the main features and resources of
the locality visited by them.
One of the purposes of the Press
Club Is to enable the editors to be-
come better acquainted with their
own state outside of their respective
localities, and through their better
knowledge of 1t, be able to pass the
information on to their readers, and
at all times to write more intelligent
ly of Idaho or any locality which they
visit
Idaho bears the distinction of be-
ing a large state lacking in means
of quick and easy transportation, and
the Idaho State Press Club which
was formed about ten years ago
failed because of the great distances
they had to cover to get together
and because of the lack of real ser.
vice rendered to their readers In con
sequence of the meetings.
Learning a lesson from the exper
fence of the state Press Club, the
Eastern Idaho Press Club has limited

EASTERN IDAHO
PRESS CLUB
Meeting Held in Gooding, Idaho
Sunday and Monday Of Last
Week-Important Reso-
lutions Passed.

The members of the Press Club ar
rived in Gooding Sunday morning
about 10 a. m. and were met at the
depot by the members of the Com
mercial club. Automobiles and car
riages were supplied for those who
cared to ride and the club was TAX
en- to the Lincoln Inn where its men,
bers became the guests of the Gov
ernor Gooding during their stay in
the city.
The Commercial club rooms were
turned over to the Press Club for
their business meetings and three
profitable session were held.
During the afternoon the automo-
biles supplied through the courtesies
of the Gooding Commercial club were
at the command OF the press mem
bers and they were taken to view
the country surrounding Goodina.
The most interesting trip perhaps
was out to see the great syphon of
the Idaho Irrigation company which
carries water for several thousand
acres of lands southwest of Good
ing across the valley of the Little
Wood river. 1t does not require
very great stretch of imagination to
think of the siphon as a great rep
tile creeping. across the desert for
three-quarters of mile.
Sunday evening the Press Club
was rendered a magnificent banquet
by the Gooding Commercial club at
the Lincoln Inn. The following pro-
gram was carried out:

it's operations to the territory from
Wood River east, and seeks to in
crease the efficiency of its members
SO that their publications shall be i'm
proved and better service rendered
to their patrons.
A good traveller is the one who, af-
ter taking an excursion, goes back
home and tells the folks all about it,
and the members of the press club
attending the meetings three times
year in different parts of the dis
trict, consider 1t their duty on GO
ing home, to tell the folks" such
things about their trip as may be
considered interesting and of prac-
teal value. for them to learn. In
this way the patrons of the papers
receive much of the educational value
of travel without expense and fatigue
of the trip.
Another matter that has developed
in these trips is that each locality
visited by the press club Is desir-
Gus of having the editorial party see
the leading institutions and natural
resources of their community, and
they provide conyeyances and other
means of serving them SO that their
time shall be spent to the best adj
vantage possible during their brief
stay, and the club has come to rec
ognize the local committees as their
host, and to assume that the re-
sources brought to their attention
are the most noteworthy in the To-
cality and deserving the attention OF
the committee on publication.
Accordingly the committee in pre-.
pairing the matter for publication, re-
fleet to a great extent. the judgment

merce or commercial clubs, and in.
stead of each editor going home and

ADDRESS OF WELCOME
BY Governor Gooding.

Mr.. POSTMASTER, Ladies and Gentle
men.
It is indeed great pleasure to be
given an opportunity to welcome the
members of the Eastern Idaho Press
Club to our young city and to assist
in your entertainment here in my
own home. Your meetings at this
time, as I understand them, are not
only for the transaction of business
and the discussion of matters of ma
are in the nature of an annual outing
where you mix business with pleas
ure; and at the same time give your
selves an opportunity to better under
stand the needs of southern Idaho and
to learn something of the great pro-
gress and advancement that is the
pride of every good citizen of the
state. II understood rightly the OBJ
ject of your meeting, then you have
chosen wisely in coming to Gooding
at this time. for here in this city and
on your proposed route for tomorrow
.ou will be given an opportunity to
zee and learn something of Idaho's
wonderful development under the
Carey Act In the last few years.
1t was my good fortune to come to
Idaho just at the end of my boyhood
days and make my home IN this part
of the country From the first Idaho
has been kind to me, and I love her
people. I think shall tell you some
thing of the growth of Gooding, as
was fortunate enough to settle In this
part of the country. and I know 1t as
well as the boy knows the old home
stead. shall also tell you something
of the great Carey Act lands lying
around Gooding.

are produced here. Moss Rose has
plump thighs with outcurving lines that
would yield most excellent round
steak, and consequently she does not
have room for a large udder. She
does not need it, however, as it is not
her business to produce milk. If you
could see this young beauty and place
your hands upon her you would find
her hair soft and fine; her skin loose
and pliable; her flesh firm, elastic and
evenly distributed.
Now look at Primrose Tricksey
1896. She is a pure bred Guernsey,
reared among the rich clover fields of
the Wisconsin dairy region. Note the
difference in general appearance of
these two cows. Contrast the spare,
angular, bony frame with prominent
spine and large stomach with the we'll
fleshed, smooth, compact, broad back
ed, symmetrical body of Moss Rose.

mails. but the most popular dairy
breed in America. The milk is very
rich in butter fat. The colors are
fawn, dun ard gray.
It is stated in the outline that cat
tie are classified as beef, dairy and
dual purpose. This refers to what the
live stock man knows as type. The
first and second of these are very we'll
illustrated by the accompanying cuts.
Moss Rose Springdale third is a pure
bred Shorthorn yearling heifer bred
by Mr.. s. Fletcher of Matteson, N. D.,
and illustrates correct beef type.
Now look at her picture and pote the
following points. The line along her
back or top line is straight. The UNI
derline is also straight, and these two
lines are parallel. Now Imagine the
head and neck off at the point OF the
brisket (fold Of skin and in front of
the shoulder point, and you will see
that the front and rear lines are pa
rall,l. The width of the broad back
is SO we'll carried, both forward and
backward, that the whole back of the
animal presents a well defined paral-
telegram; hence the square or
'blocky' form of the beef animal.
Moss Rose in all her proportions is
deep, broad and we'll 1eshed.
Notice that her head and face are
rather short and broad; that her neck
is short and thick and blends into the
shoulders. Notice, too, that her shout
ders are smooth with an abundance of
fine 1eshing, that the ribs are deeply
covered, especially the upper portion,
and that the hook points Chip bones)
are scarcely perceptible. The back of
this heifer is broad as we'll as straight,
while the flesh over the loins (region
just in front Of the hip) is especially
deep. Breeders pay much attention
to the 1eshing along the back and
loin because the choicest cuts of meat

scantily covered, her withers are very
lean and thin, her hips are wide, thighs
long, but very thin and spare. The
lines that were curved outward in the
thighs of the beef heifer are here

beef heifer are here curved inward.

well developed udder which she must
possess. Notice, too, the large tortu.
ous milk veins just in front of the
udder. These indicate a plentiful sup.
ply OF blood through the organ, and
are considered by dairymen as q
strong point in favor of the animal
possessing them.
Tricksey, however, has some points
IN common with Moss Rose. Both
have fine soft hair and a loose pliable
skin. The right kind of hair and skin
is what the stock man calls handling"
and upon the handling he passes his
judgment on the quality of the ami.

All breeds have come from a com
mo aboriginal ancestry. The vast diff
ference In size, color and utility are
b results OF climatic and food con-
aitions. and Of the different purposes
and tastes of the breeders.
The ShOrthorns are large beefy ami
mails because their native home in the
~northeast of England is a section rich
In the most nutritious OF grasses,
grains n roots. Their large size, to-
gether with good quality of flesh and
. tendency to mature early, easily
make Shorthorns the most popular
beef bred in America. Their colors are
red, white, red and white and roam.
These colors, too, are the result of the
breeders fancy, for they could as
easily have fixed some other, as yell
low or black. The first representa-
this country about one hundred Yeas
ago.
In the Hereford breed the English
people have made another fine con-
4ribution to the worlds live stock in
terests. These cattle were developed
in a rich grazing section in the west of
England. where they still may be
found in great numbers. Henry Clay
was the first to import these cattle to
this country, bringing several head to
Kentucky In 1917. The early breed
ers were very particular about color
In this case. and as a result every
pure bred Hereford must have a clean
white face. The under part Of the
body, legs and tail are usually white,
while the upper part Of the body is
red. Herefords are invariably red
and white, and because the face is
always white are often called white
faces"
The Aberdeen-Angus-Poll are Scotch
cattle with early maturing cylindrical
bodies. They never have horns,
though Just how they lost them is
quite a mystery. The prominent poll
(top Of the CROWN, outstanding ears,
and mild eyes give to the Angus an
innocent. good humored appearance.
The Galloway breed is also Scotch
:and without horns. The animals are |
quite as large, neither do they ma
rfure quite as early as the Angus.
Bred for centuries among the bleak
Scottish Highlands. these cattle have
developed a ruggeCness that fits them
admirably for our western range con
ditions. Their flesh is of excellent
quality, while their skins are valuable

HOlstein-Fresian, or simply Holstein, |
= the breed name Of the dairy cows of
odolland. They are large, black and
white animals. Because of their heavy
milk production they are a very popu-
lar breed in this country. Holstein
milk is usually low in butter fat, but
rich in other solids. making it valua-
BILE food for young animals.
Gurenseys are bred In the island of
Guernsey, between England and
France. These cows are medium in
eixe, have small horns, and yield good
quantities Of very rich milk. The col
ors are red. lemon and fawn, usually
with white markings. The Guernsey
