BAKER AND SALT LAKE

Edwin L. Baker a writer in the SER
vice of the International Harvester
company of Chicago tells good story
on New Yorker, makes him
draw a ridiculous picture of Chicago,
and then applies to other fellows and
Salt Lake City, with good effect. 1t
runs this way:
| once asked a born-and-bred New
Yorker-a Manhatten Islander-who
had never been further west than
Buffalo, which isn't west at ALL
asked him to describe for me the city
of Chicago OF course he had never
seen the Windy City; but being a
bright, educated young man, we'll
read and all that, knew that in his
minds eye he must hold some sort of
picture of the inland metropolis. And
sure enough he did. Here is a copy
of his picture:
"A long street, with cattle pens at
one end, and large store at the 9TH
er end. No house more than two or
three stories high. Indians and cow
boys swarming in from the brush, and
who kept the night noisy with firewa-
ter and six shooters"
We who live in that far west-Chi-
cago, which isn't any more west than
Buffalo-up to yesterday thought of
Salt Lake and the states grouped
about it, in much the same way the
New Yorker thought of Chicago.
1t is good to remind ourselves that
Utah has more than a fine swimming
pool; that Wyoming has more than
sagebrush; that Idaho has more than
rocky hills, that Nevada has more
than town named Reno.

back, when the one ought to be con-
sumed on the farm to raise the other
at home, furnishes room for thought
and profitable action that can be ap-
piled to a large range of farm pro-
ducts, and getting started right and
started soon in these matters means
the solution of the tax problem by
creating an income for the farm that
will enable the owner to pay the taxes
easily because he has the money.
Doing better farming on fewer
acres, planting better seeds and car
ing for better breeds, feeding the hay
and grain, and culls end the waste to
the animals and fowls at the home,
furnishing the best of shelter as well
as the best of food and in abundance,
arc some of the things to be studied
and put into practice to secure the
desired results.

WHOLESALE MILLINERS WIN.

Bird lovers throughout the United
States, who have, for the past two
months, been making a determined
effort to prohibit the use of wild bird
plumage for millinery purposes, have
just met a decisive defeat in the f.
nance committee of the United States
senate
At the beginning of the present SEES
sion of congress, an amendment was
made to the tariff bill preventing the
importation of feathers, quilts, heads,
wings, tails, skins, or parts of skins,
of wild birds, either raw or manufac-
tured, which were not used either for
scientific or educational purposes.
This provision did not apply to the
feathers or plumes of ostriches or to
the feathers of domestic fowls of any
kind.
This amendment passed the house
of representatives and would pass the
senate had the wholesale milliners
not brought enough influence to
change the senate committee on f.
nance. The passage of this amend
ment would be the greatest step in
wild bird protection that has ever
been taken
There is no. logical reason why
wild birds should be slaughtered mer-
ely for use aas fancy millinery, especi-
ally when these creatures are of eco
nomic Importance not only in the Uni
ted States but in every country in the
world" says Mr.. T. Gilbert Pearson,
secretary of the National Association

LABOR DAY PROCLAMATION

In accordance with the established
custom, | have the honor to invite
public attention to the fact that un-
der that laws of our state the first
Monday in September has been des-
ignated and set apart as a public holt
day to be known as Labor Day.
This is day whose fitting observ-
ance and celebration all our citizens,
without regard to class or walk of life
should heartily join. All our pro-
gress and prosperity, all our growth
and development depend primarily
upon labor, and it is a duty, as it
should be a pleasure. for us all to
pay fitting tribute to the dignity of
honest toll. 1t is, therefore, my earn
est request that on Monday, the first
day of September, 1913, all work and
business shall, so far as possible, be
laid aside and the day be given unre-
servedly to the purpose for which 1t
has been set apart by law.
In testimony whereof, have here
unto set my hand and caused the
great seal of the state to be affixed
hereto. Done at the capitol in Boz
Sc, Idaho, this sixth day of August,
A. D. 1913.

ARNEY's BEST ARTICLE.

One of the strongest, most practic-
able and interesting article ever writ
ten on the one subject of paramount
Importance to every resident of the
state of Idaho-that of encouraging
new people to come to the state to
live-appears in the August number
of the See Idaho First magazine, pub
lished by Robert w. Spangler at Twin
Falls. The article is entitled, Re
Elections on Practical immigration"
and was written by C. E. Arney, west
ern immigration and industrial agent
for the Norther Pacific railway com
pany, with headquarters at Spokane.
Mr.. Arney spent rs years in southern
Idaho, living at Idaho Falls, Pocatel-
10 and Boise. He has made a close
study of the growth of the state from
a territory and has been closely iden-
titled with much of the early history
of Idaho in an educational, political
and newspaper way.
The country newspaper editor, the
commercial club secretary and the
business man-and in Idaho the bus
mess man" includes the farmer-will
find valuable information in Mr.. Ar
eny's article that they can we'll put
to practical use for the benefit of
their community. One suggestion
alone in regard to the local news
paper is so simple that the reader is
startled by it's simplicity as we'll as
its practicability. In commenting on
his plan for reaching the people of
the east through the local newspaper,
Mr.. Arney says:
Newspapers are an herculean pow
er with the people. They are the
cheapest on factor for available use
in attracting settlement. They are
the easy route to take with knowledge
of fields where there ~ 81 is to be
created, a wholesale sentiment for
immigration. Every farmer, stock
raiser, merchant and manufacturer,
every teacher, preacher, atisan and
civilian can become an assistant re-
porter and editor to the local paper,
With patriotic cooperation between
the people and the paper, it at once
becomes the Invest one foctor for i'm
migration within the easy financial
reach of any people in city of suf-
ficient size to effect an organization
for the community welfare"
A plan of work for the large cities
and towns is also given, and the sug-
gestion is offered that every club or
ganized for encouragement of immi-
grafton should have it's womens ad-
junct, and with this can be shown
that the moral, social, fraternal, ed
ucational and religious. as we'll as
the commercial life of the community
will be provided for the new conner,
that here in these valleys of the
mountains there abounds a high
grade degree of civic righteousness of
community pride and of genuine
brotherly love for all mankind"
