Efforts were powerfully supported
by Clifford PinchOt, forester: by

PRESIDENTIAL PROBABILITY

Unqucstionably, there is strong
aud growing movement to have
Gov. Joseph W. Folk of Missouri
become candidate for the prcsi-
dental nomination in 1912. This
movement is not confined to any
particular section of the country,
and il seems as popular in the east
rs in the west; in the north as in
the south. And, study the situation
carefully, and where is there II more
available man? Even those who did
not admire his administration of
MlssOuri'S affairs, and who surrci-
dcred, reluctantly, To his demand
for law enforcement, adjustment
Of the lobby, observance of the Sab
bath, discontinuance Of race track
gambling, publication of police
methods in the cities, and the pros
ccutiOn of bribe-givers and bribe-
takers, will admit that Mr.. Folk
was then and Is now an honest and
clean man. He has no stain that
could he pointed to. He has no
past record that he would have To
explain. He has never been Gin
vestigated" nor even charged with
any kind or irregularity in party
matters. Mr.. Bryan is out Of the
question for another race, and will
not be a candidate. Gaynor of New
York is but the result of spasm.

were lots of fish in the stream, be-
fore the hatchery began its work. If
the dynamiters and seiners and fish
poisoners are kept out of the way,

Creamery Authority Tells How Cows
Can Be Made PrOfitabIe---S Small
Farms and What to Grow
By C B Marlatt of Gooding Creamery

Company.
l have been asked the question
quite often: viii dairying pay in
Lincoln County? and l have always
unhesitatingly answered yes, proyid-
ing you select good heavy milking
cows, and then they must be fed and
cared for properly House them in
proper manner, water them often
and give them a balanced ration.
You should milk at a regular time
every day, dividing the time between
the two milkings as near as pos
sible, and when you begin to milk a
cow get done as soon as possible;
five or six minutes is plenty time
for milking one COW. Unless you
get the milk while she is giving it
down you will not get it, for she will
take it back into the veins soon. If
this rule is followed there will be no
mistake. Care should be taken to
select good, heavy milker.
Cows when fresh should give from
As to 65 pounds per day and should
hold up well during the milking per-
iod, ten months. 1t is essential the
COW should be properly cared for in
bad weather and kept dry and warm
so she will not get chilled. You
will find that it is difficult to get
your COWS to drink enough warm
water in winter, and if this is the
case your COWS will lose in milk no
matter what you feed or otherwise
care for them. If water is cold they
will not drink it. but if the chill is
taken off they will drink it the same
as cool water in the summer.
Feed your cows properly, give
them food that goes to make milk
in Idaho. Do not feed what your
grandfather used to feed in York
state, Iowa or Ireland. You are /
now in Idaho, Lincoln county, as
good a state and county as Uncle
Sam has, where alfalfa hay, hea-
