Sweeping inspection campaigns Of

The health department is now
working on the principle that this
state is soon to become one of the
great dairy districts ofthe union and
the inspector declares that they in
tend to start the industry out right
while they have the chance. The
new Law requires a careful scoring
of every point when one of these in

The beautiful spring weather enjoy
ed BY this prairie country during the
past ten days is certainly quite diff
ferent from the brand that has been
predominating for the past several
weeks over most Of the rest Of the
country. Il is no wonder that one Nez-
percer, who is sojouming in South
em California, where he says he mas
been chilled through ever since he AZ
ived, remarked that he guessed he
would have 70 go back to Nezperce to

About the first Of the year the wealth
er became quite cold here. For one
hour the government thermometer al
this place registered IS degrees below
zero the lowest point reached this win
ter, and hours later. II pm, the mer-
cuTy had risen to 9 degrees above zero,
and on the following morning stood at
2 above. About 8 inches Of snow was
on the ground at that time. Since then
the mercury has stood close around
freezing, not much below and often
several degrees above. The snow has
about all melted and on several days it
has been so warm and pleasant that
very little fire was needed in the
houses.
When ii comes to weather, Nez-
perce prairie is just about little better
of than most any point on the con-
tinent. Don't you think so, you folks
from the middle west, who have been
reading letters and stories from your
folks back there telling Of the disagree
