ANOTHER ELEVATOR
FOR BLACKFOOT.

The firm of Bond Brothers Com
pany has been reorganized and the
capital stock increased from $4,000
to $4,000, and they have just let a
contract to the firm of Pelkey Bros.
for the erection of an elevator which
will have capacity Of $4,000 bushels,
and a potato storage of modern pat
tern and large capacity.
Pelkey Bros. have had an extended
experience in erecting and fitting ele-
vators with machinery, and they pur-
pose making this one Of the most up
to-date elevators that can be built.
Bond Bros. have been handling grain
and produce for a number of years
and past success warrants them In
launching out in something larger
and more suitable for the business.
The potato storage is to be 38x6O
feet, with basement nine feet deep
and the ground floor to be twelve
feet in depth. The building is to be
completed by the first Of September.
In tn meantime Bond Bros. will be
carrying on their business at the Of
fee and warehouse as usual, and be
getting supplies for moving the big
crops promised by the present out
look for 1912.
They have large amount of coal
on hand and will increase the supply
to 500 tons in the nesr future. The
coal storage furnishes room for 1000
tons.

LOOKING TO TIE FOURTH. |

In 1909 there was a "safc and sane
celebration of the Fourth of July IN
twenty cities. That year 5307 per-
sons we're killed or injured.
In 1910 this style Of celebration
spread to ninety-one cities, and that
wear the number Of dead and manned
dropped to 1928.
In 1911 the great and glorious day
was celebrated becomingly, with page
ants rather than pistols. rockets, can
non crackers, in 161 cities, and as q
result there was a further marked
diminution in the number Of fire and
powder victoms throughout the coun-
try the total being 1908.
There then is gain in life and
limb of more than Sc 2-S per cent
IN a couple of years. It is gain
that should continue until the cas-
ua,ties due to explosives are reduced
to zero.
The old-fashioned, semi-barbaric
mode Of celebrating is still permitted
IN over one thousand cities. but we
venture to say that this list will be
considerably cut down this year. It
will he IL the municipalities will only
look over the records and then act.

A Few Household Disinfectants.

The housewife should have on
hand a few simple disinfectants to
use in cases of emergency. Children
frequently suffer with sore throats
cuts and bruises and require mild
disinfectant to be used as gargle
or compress; contaminated objects
in common use frequently require a
disinfectant that can be quickly used.
With this object in view we tested
the disinfecting powers of some of the
common household substances, about
which there seems to be diversity
of opinion relative to their powers of
killing bacteria Among the things
tested were baking soda, hydrogen
peroxide, alcohol, dutch cleanser and
toilet soap.
Common baking soda in a satur-
ated solution did not kill bacteria
when they were exposed to it for
one to five minutes. This demo-
strated the worthlessness of baking
soda as disinfectant.
Hydrogen peroxide in the strength
purchased at the market, namely 3
percent, destroyed bactreia when they
were exposed to its action for fra
ction of a minute. The same SUBJ
stance In 2 percent solution or when
diluted with one part Of water and
two parts Of peroxide, DESTROYED bac-
teria in less than minute and Ike
wise. in an experiment where one part
Of peroxide and two parts OF water
were used. namely | percent solu-
ton bacteria were DESTROYED almost
at once. Hydr gen peroxide can be
|used on the skin in full strength or i
can be used as gargle or tooth WASH
or on cuts and bruises in one or two
per cent dilutions, with the assuran'
ce that in every case the bacteria
becoming in contact with it will Dc
killed. Alcohol when diluted te
varying strength was found to mo-
kill bacteria in 33 per cent solution
but did kill bacteria in less than one
minute in SO per cent solution, aho
in stronger solution, up to SO pei
cent destroyed bacteria Immediately
Dutch Cleanser and an ordinar!
brand of cheap toilet soap showet
no disinfecting powers. The Dutcl
Cleanser was prepared in a saturated
solution and bacteria exposed TO :
for five minutes with no killing Ell
