KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
INITIATE TEN MEMBERS

Monday, May 81 was a day of
special interest to the Knights of
Columbus who reside here, from the
fact that officers of Sheridan council
of st. Johnsbury were present that
day in initiating ten new members in
to the first and second degrees of
Knighthood.
Initiation and degrees were per-
formed in K. P. hall at 8 p. m. A
banquet was served in Woodmen
Hall, at 6 p. M, Immediately after
the degree work. A sumptious re-
past, for which the K. c. ladies are
noted, was partaken of by the
Knights and their wives, to the num-
ber of about 125. Music was des-
pensed during the evening by Dyer's
orchestra, augmented by Mr.
Steele and assistant from Sherbrooke.
After the banquet postprandial ex-
ercises followed. Hon. Jas. Cosgrove

Trottier, Grand Knight Hinch, Sheri-
dan council, followed by P. G. K.
Healy. Sheridan council, T. H. Far
rel, White Mt. council, F. O'Rourke,
Derby Line, and w. A. Gleeson. A
solo by Miss Marie Turgeon was
beautifully rendered and a reading
by Miss Nina Colby, which brought
forth tumultuous applause from the
audience, and was quelled only when
encores were rendered by the young
ladies'.
The gathering being of such large
proportions, that following the ban
quet, it was found necessary to ad-
journ to Opera Hall, where dancing
was enjoyed until late hour. The
grand march was started promptly
at 8 o'clock, led by Mr.. and Mrs.
W. A. Gleeson, in which fifty couples
participated.
A large number of Knights and

LOCAL OPTION
LEAGUE ORGANIZED

A Local Option League has been
organized in Vermont. Prominent
residents who believe the present
law to be the best temperance meas
ure ever placed upon the statute
books came together a few weeks
ago and decided that an organization
with the purposr in view of retain
ing the present law was wise at this
time.
To ascertain the sentiment on this
subject prominent men in all parts
of the state were consulted and the
concensus.of opinion was that the
present Local Option Law should be
retained in preference to anything
yet proposed to take it's place With
this information at hand the League
was organized with the following
officers:

flowers, the grain, the confiding do
nestle animals, the game chickens,
the emblem of all faithfulness, the

thoughtful man sigh to get back to

all, the perfect farmer is every day
occupied in pursuing the highest and

A LITTER FROM CALIFORNIA

Berkeley, CAL, March 20, 1915.
Mr.. Byrd Trego,
Blackfoot, Idaho.
Dear Sir: / have been thinking
for long time would write you
and since seeing the article about the
San Francisco fair being referred to
las pasteboard fair by one of your
Blackfoot visitors, thought ! would
do little contradicting to his very
unkind remark.
You can plainly see / love Cali
fornia. The exposition is a most
beautiful affair. The architecture,
statuary, lagoons, fountains, gardens,
court of four seasons, and the in
Vulnerable buildings and exhibits are
things ever to be remembered by
those who have the great privilege of
visiting "the jewel CITY," so named
after most magnificent work of
art to be seen at the exposition call
ed, "The Tower of Jewels" These
are only a few of the many beauties
of the exposition.
The illumination of the grounds at
night has never been equaled by any
fair given. Thousands of candle
power search-lights illuminate the
Flower of Jewels" SO it can be seen
for miles, and its jewels. sparkle like
so many diamonds. The perfect
blending and harmony of colors has
won world wide admiration. There
is no artist who can do justice to
the perfect reflection of the build
ing in the lagoons at night. The
softest color tones and minutest de-
tails are reflected most perfectly.
The Idaho building is ideally locat-
ed along the water front, and is a
very pretty building.
The Canadian building is one of
the finest in every detail to be con-
sidered. The exhibits are excellent
so far as l have seen, but there are
still many concessions where the ex-
;hibits are not complete.
I am still matron at st. Joseph
Acadamy at Berkeley and l like it
very much; and will be delighted to
have all my Blackfoot friends and
acquaintences call at the academy or
phone Berkeley 1888 and l will be
pleased to call on them.
With kindest regards to yourself
and Mrs. Trego, ! am
Very sincerely,

AS TO FARMING

The war has supplied some lessons
to our farmers. The first one is to
cease raising worthless horses. The
world wants especially three kinds of
horses. The first is cavalry horses,
not too large, but with desert blood
enough in them to make them intelii-
gent and hardy. The second is ar
tillery horses, large and strong, but
not too large-from LOO to 1880
pounds. These, too, should be of
blood combining intelligence and
toughness, it'll good action and sound
feet.
, The third is coach horses, which
require fine style, fixed colors, large
size and splendid action. OF course
the main work of the horse will be
on the farm, but if horses are raised
to meet either fthe requirements
named above, they will make perfect
farm horses. The day of either the
plug horse or the mustang should
be considered as past by the horse
breeder, and If only colt or two are
to be raised on the small farm, the
fact should be kept in mind that a
colt to be Of any account should be
a colt Of character, fitted for some
especial work, and when such a colt
is raised it is not only worth some
thing, but it uplifts every child in
the family.
1t is the same way with cattle. A
great many cows that are MIXED do
not pay the expense of raising and
milking and ten mustang steers do
not bring as much as three well-bred
and well cared for ones.
The war has taught another lesson,
which is that the most profitable food
products are such as can be sent
away, like wheat, or sent to the can
merry like peas, beans and fine fruit.
The only rift in the clouds that have
darkened Belgium for eight months
past seems to have been a shipload of
pork and beans.
No other occupation is so congen-
lal, to those who love it, as the Gull
tivation of farm and orchard. If we
believe the sacred records, it is the
pursuit which the Infinite selected for
