FARM BUREAU TALKS
By H. A. IRELAND

At the sixth annual National Corr
Exposition to be held at Dallas, Tex.
as, next February, trophy valued
at $500 is offered for the best peck
of oats. This trophy becomes the
property of the party who shall win it
five times in five years, and it has al
ready gone twice to Canada. If won
again by Canada the trophy goes per-
manently across the northern border.
The States grow just as good oats as
any other country. Exhibitors must
select samples that will win the tro-
ply and hold the cup and our national
reputation. This is the call that
comes to Canyon county as well as
to other parts of Idaho.
Of course, oats are not the only
thing that will be exhibited at the
National Corn Exposition. Premiums
are offered for exhibits of all grains,
both threshed and in the sheaf, and
for sheaves and seeds of all forage
crops, as well as for samples of all
varieties of corn. 1t is already too
late to begin preparation of exhibits
of some of these things, but not too
late to prepare samples of corn, grains |
and seeds of grasses and legumes. A
is already well started to
collect an exhibit from this county |
and everyone who has anything of |
merit is invited and strongly urged
to save it for this purpose. A num-
Der of meetings will be held in the
county within the next month for the
purpose of discussing the plan and
methods of selecting exhibits. These
meetings. should be attended by every
person who is interested in the pro-
luction of better crops.
Not all of the samples prepared in
he county will be worthy to compete
n the national show, so, for the pur-
ose of selecting the best from the
tate a preliminary contest will be
cid some place in the state. Sam
les for this contest should be larger c
nan those required for the national /
} that they may be worked over into d
lie best possible condition. 1t is not 3
ossible to give details regarding Ell !
Ter show in this article, but all avail :
Die information will be given at the /,
arious MEETINGS or will be furnished r
trough the Office of the Farm Bureau Y
anyone requesting it.
Canyon county may not bring home p
great many of the premiums but Is
e effort to make a creditable display u
the great show will undoubtedly
suit in much good. Our conditions
e nearly ideal for great many n,
ops, but in some instances, as ex- Is
nplified by the corn crop, our pro- is
cts are lacking in quality and uni bi
rmity. Anything that will tend to F.
prove these conditions as we'll as to
,rease our productions should be
ii worthy of our consideration. RI

The late Tyson Yerkes laid down
for himself four commandments.
IN addition to the original ten: "The
worst fooled man is the one who fools
himself. Have one great object in
life. Follow it persistently and de-
terminedly. If you divide your ener-
gies you will not succeed Do not
look for what you do not wish to find.
Have no regrets. Look to the future.
The past is gone and cannot be
brought back" He added that he had
always strictly obeyed his own com
mandments,. even if he did depart
from the original ten.

CHIEF BACON RIND.
Maybe He Was an Indian, but Ono Man
Thought He Wasn't.

Inon9nt he wasn't.
Not long ago the Oklahoma Editorial
association visited Pawhuska, which is
the capital of the Usage Indians. The
Indians put on corn dance for the
editors, and everybody had good time.
The editors elected Pete Duffy, mayor
of I'll Reno, Okla, for their chief. and
the time came for an interchange Of
views between the Indian chief, Bacon
Rind, and the editorial chief. Mayor
Duffy.
| The Osages are the richest Indians
In the world. There are but 1000
members Of the tribe, and they have
some S10000.0OO ON deposit in Wash
ington In the treasury on which they
draw interest. They own 100000
acres of land, and each member of the
tribe gets a good sized sum each year
In oil royalties from company that
operates In their territory.
Chief Bacon Rlnd talks little English.
and his remarks were interpreted by a
brave. who talks but little more. How
ever, the editors got the trend of the
chiefs speech. He said he advocated
happiness on the part of his people,
and for this reason he was sternly OPP
posed to manual labor by any Usage
brave. In his opinion no man could
be really happy who had to work, and,
as the Osages are rich, If any work is
to be done 1t is easy enough to hire
white men to do 1t.
When Chief Bacon Rind concluded
his address Duffy said to the interpret
er: "Have the old boy slip it to me
how he does it. What is his recipe |
that permits his tribe to live like kings |
while we editors have to chase our
meals after working eighteen hours a
day? Tell him that, as chief of the
editors, l am crazy to get his recipe,
and ask him what he thinks about d.
vidlng with me. Just ask him If he
will not split up with brother chief
who knows all about the high cost of
lving?'
The interpreter had some difficulty in
Duffy's talk to the chief,
'ut finally the chief understood and
eplied through the interpreter as fol-
ows:
''He say he like Chief Duffy and well
ONE him. He like his talk-yes. He
elieve In dividing-yes. Use to be In
ian he take buzzard and white man
g take turkey, or white man he take
lrkey and Indian he take buzzard.
lie say he divide with Meester Duffy.
lie say he take bacon and give rind to
Ieester Duffy. or Meester Duffy take
nd and he. big chief. take bacon
es."
"Huh!' said Duffy when the inter
reter had finished. "That old sport

His Illustration.

An English lecturer, expatiating on
the nature of man, remarked that one
point of distinction between human
beings and lower animals consisted in
mans capacity for progress.
Man." exclaimed the lecturer, sis a
progressive being; other creatures are
stationary. Take, for example, the
ass. Always and everywhere 1t is the
same creature. You never have seen
and never will see more perfect ass
than you see at the present moment"

A six weeks investigation of Judge
Ben b. Lindsey's administration Of
the children's court at Denver has re-
suited in his complete vindication, his
accusers being unwilling to back up
their charges about his leniency to
offenders. We can't all agree with
Judge Lindsey about his methods of
promoting political reform, but we
can agree that he has been pioneer
in great social reform and that he
has been a devoted and single-minded
worker for the public good.
