A Great Hog Country.


In harvesting the grain there is
necessarily much of 1t lost which Is
not CLEANED by the harvesters. 1t has
been found very profitable to raise
hogs, which are fattened. or topped
off" each fall by being turned into
these fields.
Dry farm alfalfa will grow on most
of the land and enough of this is be-
ing raised by many farmers to furnish
hog pasture during the spring and
summer months until the harvest is
removed. BY that means the cost or
producing the pigs up to the fattening
period is very slight and they are pre-
pared for slaughter at no cost what
ever by being permitted to CLEAN for
themselves the grain which hereto
fore has been left to rot in the fields.
The farmers are getting a start in tho
hog business just as rapidly as their
financial condition and other condi-
lions will permit. SO that 1t will be but

The desert is disappearing from
southern Idaho.
Those OF us who for years have de-
plored the great desert waste of the
low foothill lands and the mountains,
but who have tried to present mental
pictures of what a wonderfully rich
state we would have IL those hills
and mountain sides were productive
instead of desert, have only to open
their eyes to see a realization of the
mental picture we have tried to
uraw in the past
These same hills and mountain sides

Hundred Miles of Wheat Field.
A hundred miles through such a

that there is no longer any real desert

sections of the country.
Garden vegetables, potatoes and
even the hardy fruits have been raised
successfully on this desert" land and
the valley is rapidly becoming one Of
the ideal farm residence sections of
the state.
What is here said of the Rockland
valley is largely true of the Bannock
valley save that 1t is smaller and the
soil is less rolling. Arbon Is the CEN
ter of this valley which Is even newer
than the Rockland valley. The far
mers, however, show that they are

grains.

| The section compares favorably
with the great Palouse country of nor

millions of acres of lands, both upon

foothills and mountains bordering the
great Sawtooth range both on the
north and on the south, are destined
within coming years. to become alike
productive of grain and other food

A MEASURE OF THE
WAR MADNESS

1t has been said this is not a
peoples war, but dynastic war,
that if the people could have had
their voice there would have been
no war, says an exchange. That
may have been true at the be-
ginning of the trouble, but it
may be questioned if it is now
true. If the reports that are
now coming from the countries
involved can be depended upon,
the great masses of the people
are almost as much obsessed by
the idea that foreigner" is syn
onomous with ''enemy" as at
any time in the past. The auto
Gratis doubtless started the war,
but their appeals to their people
have met with a quick response.
The German accepts the story
that the other nations of Eu-
rope are jealous of Germany's
progress and have seized upon
this opportunity to destroy her.
And the Frenchman has been
convinced that Germany is drunk
with power, and is seekingasto
obtain world dominion. Each is
fighting not only for his country
but for liberty, civilization and
progress.

Chinese Facing Famine

Twelve months famine, which
only outside aid can avert, faces
the Kwang Tung and Kwang ST
provinces in China, which were
devastated by floods in July,
with a loss of 5000 lives and
more than 100, 900 homes.
The Consul General reported
from Canton that more than
eight million people suffered
losses and many millions in dis
tress would need food until the
next harvest. Reports of Ameri-
can mission workers, forwarded
in the consul generals report,
told of the extent of the havoc
and destruction.
In many places whole villages
have been blotted out, inhabi-
tants and all. The loss of life
may never be known, but the
suffering is appalling. T h e
West river is still very high, the
fields and land are under several
feet of water. Taxes are re-
mitted, and other government
aid is given, but even thus, the
