President Bush Favors Construction of
Feeders Along Salt [ake-FrisCo Line
New Official Is Optimistic Over Financing Extensions of Former
Gould System Twin Falls Chances for Rail-
road are Very Good

President Bush, for some time the
presiding genius of the Denver & Rio
Grande and the man who really made
that make-shift railroad into real
system, under the newest develop
ments will also manage the Western
Pacific and the Missouri Pacific and
all parts OF the Gould's plan for a
coast to coast line. Under his man
agement the Western Pacific, which
has merely existed ASA direct line
from Ogden to San Francisco with no
feeders, will probably begin to de-
velop. Bush is man who does
things in railroading. He is said to
have the dynamic qualities of jim
Hill, with the same keen scent for the
dollars to be gained in undeveloped
territory. Bush made a statement in
Salt Lake to the Tribune which should
be taken as cheering news by the peo-
pie of this tract as the forerunner of
authentic statement that the Western
Pacific will build into this territory.
President Bush's statement is given
below:
San Francisco, July 17.-More
money-lots of it-and more feeders
for the Western Pacific railroad, are
the first things to get following its
consolidation into unified management
with the Denver e Rio Grande and the
Missouri Pacific railroads. Benjamin
F. Bush, president of the two latter
roads, arrived here last night with a
staff of railroad officials and thus out
| lined the beginning of his policy.
"The Western Pacific has got to
have money" he said, "and we all
know the money market is tight. Just

Wild ANIMALS INFECTED
Coyotes Have HydrophObia Near
Council.

DR.. r. B. Hurd, deputy state veter-
marian, returned Saturday from trip
to Council, where he had been called
to investigate a case of rabies in a
dog, says the Payette Enterprise. He
was forced to kill valuable animal, a
large Russian Stag hound, which in
his estimation was undoubtedly suffer-
ing from rabies.
The dog belonged to Frank Mahn,
county commissioner of Adams county
and on May 2Sth gave battle to and
killed a large coyote, being severely
bitten in several places by the coyote
during the fight. Thirty days after
the fight he began acting very strange
ly occasionally swapping and snarling
at people and objects He was chaned
up by his owner and was placed where
he could harm no one and DR.. Hurd
was called to pass upon his case which
developed was rabies, and he was kill
ed.
That the dog fought the coyote and
killed him is certain as at the time
Frank Hahn, Jr., was with the dog
and witnessed the fight and at the
time thought it peculiar that the coy
ote showed fight as at this time of
y
orally wary and take to heel at the ap-
proach of a dog or man. This one
however, stood his ground from the
first, swapping and snarling in a vici-
Gus manner. Several other dogs in
| this section known to have engaged in
| fights with coyotes, have also devel-
oped symptoms of this disease and
have been killed. Especially neal
| Fruitvale in Adams county has there
been quite an epidemic.
Wherever there are dogs running al
large in the hills and liable to engage
in fights with coyotes the disease is
liable to spread and may assume such
proportions as to endanger human life
as a dog or coyote suffering from ra
bies is dangerous proposition. Camp
ers contemplating going to the hills
are warned to take extra precautions
regarding the safety of children ant
women.-Nampa Record.

TAKE TWO OF SERIES
Twin Falls Strikes Winning Gait in
Base Ball Tournament.

The siX-day baseball tournament
which began Sunday in this city, has
started off in fine style for the locals
with two victories to their credit in
two days play. Sunday, with Bursting
and Chaplin as battery, the Pocatello
Gem State team, one of the fastest
amateur teams in the state, went down
to defeat by score of to 1. Bersing
was in good form and held the heavy
hitting Indians down to six scattered
hits during the game. One of the big
gest crowds of the season turned out
to watch the locals play an almost
errorless game.
Monday was the beginning of the
twilight games, which was called
promptly at six-fifteen by Umpire
Golden. A fair crowd responded to
the occasion, with large number of
ladies taking advantage of the Ladies
Day free admission. Rupert, the OPP
posing team, was not in good form in
| fielding and made many errors which
marred the enjoyment of the contest
| for the fans. Wild throws and mex
cusable errors on their part added at
least half of Twin Falls score during
the eight innings. Heicke and Chaplin
for the locals gave pretty exhibition
of box work that netted thirteen
strikeouts. Heicke's curves were shot
over at a terrific speed that puzzled

result Of comparison Mrs. De Garmo had in mind the
splendid work being carried on by national and State
agricultural departments to the end Of producing better
livestock the improvement of breeds and development
of higher standards in individuals, as well as the
encouragement offered by the annual meets of the Fair
Associations in the way of competitive exhibitions,
where the merits defects of each animal deter
mined by standardized score card and where the prize
was awarded for physical perfection rather than "oos
Mrs. DE Garmo concluded that if the strict physical
test was the correct and logical basis which to de-
termnc the merits of animal then the principle
with equal reason should be made to apply in deter
mining the merits of a baby. She argued that the
physical perfection of baby equally important
that of a calf or a colt Wouldn't there be vastly
more benefit first and last in raising higher standard
Of babies than in the Improvement however desirable
Of the quality Of livestock? Mrs De Garmo thought
there would.
And if wholesome rivalry, manifested in the COM
pcttve exhibits of the agricultural fairs served as an
effective incentive to the better grooming feeding care,
and treatment of domestic animals to the end of de-
velopng perfect individuals, then why would not
like contests with baby exhibits based on an analogous
standardized of physical points of perfection and
defects promote equally wholesome rivalry among
parents which would create incentive to raise better

not most important, function of the fair, the baby

The site of the Heath property at Lake

In addition to the regular courses OF

13 years of age will be admitted to the
