The Reason Why.

A newspaper item says that the Van
Camp condensing milk factory at Water
town has shut down until next spring,
throwing large number of people out
of employment. If this is true, what
will the farmers who furnished milk to
the factory do with their winter product?
1t may be that the milk is still purchased
and shipped TO the large cities without
being condensed. Juneau Telephone.
The price of butter being so high of
late, the Van Camp company saw that
there was more money in butter than in
condensed milk, SO changed from one to
the other which necessitated the laying
off of quite number of people. The
company is taking in daily, about $4,000
pounds of milk and on March 1, will re-
sumo the manufacture of condensed milk
and give employment to their old hands.

FARMERS INSTITUTE
WAS BIG SUCCESS

The Examiner regrets exceedingly
that 1t WAS unable to have a repre-
sentative in attendance at the farm
ers' institute at Paris, which closed
Tuesday night We learn, however,
that the meetings We're n sncct ~ in
every particular. The attendance
each day was large and the lectures
were listened to with the deepest IN
terest.
Following each lecture many qnes-
tions were asked by the farmers on
points in which they were especially
Interested.
On Tuesday night at the meeting
of the school trustees every district
In the county was represented except
Geneva. Practical talks on educa-
tion were made by Miss Shepherd,
state superintendent Of public in
struction. and Dean Carlyle Of the
state university. Much wholesome
advice was given to both trustees and
| teachers.
Those in charge OF the institute
stated that the meetings We're among
the best that had been held in the
state this winter, and they We're loud
In their praise of the hospitality ac-
corded them by the people of Paris
Another institute will be held in
the county next year, at which time
it is quite probable that four days
will be given-two in Montpelier ano
two in Paris.
Dnring the talks it was stated by
one OF the professors that there wai
now more cream shipped from Mont
pelier each year than from any othe
station on the Short Line in Idaho
The possibilities of the dairy indus
try were dwelt upon at length.
Upon the whole the institute was
great success and much good
bound to result from it.

U. S. Sc MAJORS AS
/, CAMPAIGN MANAGERS

Washington, March 23.-Four
presidential campaigns are being
directed by United States senators,
something that never happened be-
fore IN the history of American
politics. Senator LaFollette is
managing his own campaign and has
deserted Washington to occupy tn,
stump up to the day of the conven-
ing of the national convention
Senator Dixon of Montana has de-
serted the senate to manage the
campaign of Theodore Roosevelt.
The Harmon campaign is under tn
personal direction of Senator PomC-
rene of Ohio, while Senator Bank
head of Alabama is managing the
Underwood campaign. A fifth cam
paign, that of Champ Clark, i,
under the management of former
senator, Fred L. Dubois of Idaho.
II is to be inferred from this situa-
ton that the senate is a good schooI
for politicians, or that men who at.
tain seats in that body, as a rule
know the game. 1t is heavy tas
upon the senate to have four of it,
members drawn out in the midst ot
session of congress to take eharg'
of political campaigns, but the sen
ate is plugging along just as though
nothing unusual had happened, ant
it 80 developes that of the senator
managers, two are Republicans and
two are Democrats so that the,
virtually offset one another. Only
one campaign, that of President
Taft, is being directed by membe
! of the house, Representative Mckin
ley. The Taft manager being
member of the minority, is no
missed. Even at that, Mr.. McKin
ley makes it a rule to spend a par
of each day at the capitol and ha
not completely overlooked his dutie
as a member of the house.
