TALKS STOCK SHOW.
Secretary of Live Stock Association
Tells of Coming Event.

Guy f. Whetsel of Rosalia, Washing
ton the live secretary of the Northwest
Live Stock Association, was in the city
last week in the interests of the assoca-
tion of which he is an officer.
The annual show will be held this
year from November 80 to December 5
and from present indications is going
to surpass all previous efforts and firm
ly establish itself as the one big stock
show of the Northwest Already as
surance of five car loads of show stuff
from as far east as Bozeman, Montana
and six car as far west as Albany, Ore
gon is granted and the stock from
points between promises to be fifty per
cent greater than last year.
At the meeting of the executive
board, recently held at Spokane it was
decided to offer premiums in the sum
of $3.50 for carload lots of twenty
heifers of any of the recognized beef
varieties, age from one to three years.
First money will be $3.50, second 5000,
third 800, fourth $50 and fifth $50.
Similar prizes will be given for calves
of the beef class over six months old
and under one year. The prize winning
stock of these two classes will be sold
the last day of the sale, the owners be-
ing allowed to place minimum bid,
subject to approval of the committee
on the same. This will afford the small
stock men an opportunity to secure first
class young females at a reasonable
figure.
In speaking of the local Horse Show,
Mr.. Whetsel had the following to say:
|"I am agreeably surprised at the
quality and quantity of horse flesh you
have here. l have heard this prairie
country had some very fine animals
but had no idea I would fine so many
excellent sires. You are surely to be
congratulated on the manner in which
the show has been handled and the
benefit derived by the community can
hardly be estimated"

and better home conditions.
Not Expected to Know It All.

Undoubtedly incidents will arise at
times for which the agriculturist will
not have full information, it is not pos
sible to find man who is a specialist
in all branches. of agriculture But
through his very intimate connections
with the state experiment stations and
the U. s. Department of Agriculture he
will be able to secure the necessary
information Immediately and will be
able to assist the farmer to apply it to
his own farm conditions in the proper
manner.
I" At the present time four counties
have made the necessary appropriations
and have agricuturists employed. Last
year in Canyon county an agriculturist
was maintained almost wholly by sub
scribed funds. This year delegation
of farmers from each community met
the board of commissioners and secured
from them pledge for payment of all
expenses to be incurred by their farm
expert during the coming year. The
farmers of Canyon county have given
the plan thorough trial for one year,
and finding it profitable investment
have placed it upon their regular county
taxation basis. 1t is the history of
similar movements in all parts of the
United States and Canada for the past
eight years. It is not an experiment
and Idaho county cannot afford to lag
behind the times

RIDES FLOODED HORSE.

Arthur Nepean, the nine year old son
of A. Nepean of the Doumecq country,
was the object Of much admiration at
the Horse Show last week. The boy,
who is small for his age, road the high
spirited racer, "Tempo," during each
day of the parade and sits in the saddle
like an experienced jockey. Tempo
holds the Pacific coast ten furlong re-
cord and is an animal full Of ginger
but the boy never once lost his nerve
and handled the horse as well as man
could. Mr.. Nepean informs us that it
is his intention to make a jocky out of
the lad who will be eligible to ride
when he reaches his twelfth birthday.

TOURNAMENT RESULTS.
(By Breezy Short.)


Well, the home club failed to play
fast enough to figure in the finals, but
if it hadn't of been for them pesky
Kamiah Indians, they would of, all
right. You know me, AL.
And, at that, the locals finished
second best. We had it doped that
Grangeville would win from Kamiah
and in that way have cinch on meet
ing Cottonwood in the final and decid-
ing and championship game on Sunday.
But as Bobby Burns, big Lacquer in
Scottish literature, has writ somewhere
in his books: "The best laid plans Of
mince and men aft gang agley." So
it was with ours. Score Kamiah 4,
Grangeville l.
OF course there were two other games
in the tournament but inasmuch as
Grangeville participated in only one,
that particular one should draw first
mention.
How the Game Started.
Renshaw, first man up for Kamiah,
looked over four wide ones and walked
to the initial sack. Types was out on
a bounder to Ingram to Ogsbury, who
covered the first bag for Grangeville in
this game. Renshaw essayed to swipe
second and was cut off, Brown to Eli.
Then Hayes signled to left and few
moments later endeavored to do as Rem
shaw had intended. Hays, too, succumb-
ed, Brown to Ingram. And who says

The Be-nightie-d Drama.

The British drama is no longer be- nighted; it is be-nightie-d. In nearly all the new plays the heroine is put to bed or prepared for bed, and the audi ence is permitted to see the very newest nighties and the very latest peignoirs.
 This sounds very shocking, but the stage peignoirs are very substantial garments, and they are not half so naughty as they seem. In fact lady is more completely dressed when she is undressed than when she is dressed
 nowadays. That is the paradox of the lingerie school of dramatists. The more they take off the more they put on. The theaters are forced to do some thing desperate to meet the fierce com petition of the picture theatres, the revues, the musical comedies and the music hall. What can the starving dramatist do if he is forbidden to ex- ploit the mysteries of the wardrobe
Connecticut western news., 1914-05-21

He has tried every other device to at- tract the public. But the public are tired of all his tricks. They demand brains behind the footlights. AS the poor dramatist in nine cases out of ten is born without brains he is compelled to try the lure of silk stockings or the bait of lingerie. If he has no head, he must rely on hose. If he has no intel lect he must put his trust in nighties. If he cannot cast out dullness, he must at least cast off clothes. It is felt that if the worst comes to the worst the British theatre may owe its salvation to the laundry.-London Opinion.
