A HAPPY DISCOVERY.


"One week of European war;" Pres
ident Farrell of the steel trust told
the Newark board of trade banquet,
"did more than 10 years of academic
discussion to convince this country
that foreign trade is an element in
domestic prosperity"
This is high authority. The fact is
obvious, however, and needs only to
be mentioned to convince open minds.
We have had the erroneous idea that
If only we could contrive to get ex-
clusively into our own hands the home
market, the great American market,
all would be well-let the markets Of
the world go to anybody who want,
them. Well, since the war we have
had it TO ourselves Never so much so.

VANCOUVER ENCOURAGES
IMPROVEMENTS.

Vancouver, British Columbia, hal
been made famous by its taxation re-
forms. The city undertook severa
years ago to encourage improvements
So it gave them partial exemption
from taxation. The plan worked SC
well that eventually they we're wholly
exempted and the taxation was laid on
the value of the land, which arose, OF
course, from the presence of the city
and was not the result Of labor.
The success of the system has at
tracted wide attention and numerous
accounts Of it have been published in
newspapers and magazines. The city
election was held recently, with four
for mayor. Two advocated
a continuance Of the plan for taxing
the values created by the community
and exempting Improvements. The
other two favored return to the old
system. One of the tax reformers was
elected and the other ran second. The
yote for the two combined was two
birds Of the total vote.
Apparently, Vancouver remains sat
SIZED with the policy of encouraging
men to spend money in improvements
y relieving such enterprising citizens
f the burden of taxation.

TAKE THEMSELVES TOO SERI-
QUSLY.

One of the great obstacles to over
come in legislation, as in other lines,
IS the man who takes himself too
blamed seriously. This legislator goes
to the capital city with an idea that
the eyes of the state are upon him.
Every time he answers rollcall in the
morning he notes with pleasure that
the state will at last get the reward
of his superior knowledge of the
wants of the people. At first he gives
to every bill the greatest considera-
ton and prepares himself for its dis
cussion. When he gets all ready he
finds the bill has been passed or killed.
Then he sees a bill going through
committee and he proceeds to explain
il thoroughly and at length to lot
of men who know all that he thinks
he thinks, and he finally quits because
everybody is calling Question, ques-
ton" He discovers something new
and fundamental and gets into per-
SEPARATION trying to impress the as
sembly, only to be told in passing by
the presiding officer that the idea he
is advocating has been law for about
20 years.
As soon as the brethren get his
measure he never has listener to his
talk and the only opportunity he has
TO attract attention is to explain his
vote on rollcall and then he often
speaks one way and votes the other
By the third or fourth week of the
session he either finds himself and
realizes that he does not know every
thing and in fact little of anything,
in which case he becomes fairly good
legislator, or he retains his serious
regard of his own opinions and is new
er counted or consulted on any propo-
sition for fear he will ruin the cause
by his advocacy.
The name of this kind of member
is not legion, but it is too many, and
one of them halls from Canyon county.

THANKS!

The editorial page of The Index
goes to press too early to be able to
tell its readers the fate of Gem coun-
ty at the hands of Governor Alexan-
der. But whether it wins or loses,
the following kind words expressed in
the editorial columns of the Caldwell
Tribune will be appreciated. The peo-
pie in the proposed Gem county have
made brave fight. Against odds that
would have discouraged most com
munities, the campaign was waged
to a successful termination in the leg
islature. Newspapers in neighboring
towns assailed it and with no good
reason-just pure cussedness, it would
seem. On that account the Tribune's
expression is all the more gratifying.
The old residents of this part
of Canyon county are glad that
Emmett has secured a county of
her own. We trust that the adj
vantages to the city of Emmett
and the conveniences to the tax
payers of that section will be all
that they have anticipated.
Caldwell and Emmett afford
striking example OF two towns
working together for common
end and the results that accrue
from united action. When Can
yon county was created Caldwell
and Emmett worked together and
they have worked together ever
since. This county was created
~ years ago and during that time
In spite of changing conditions
and the natural change in the {
people, the two towns have al
ways been together on every mat
ter effecting the welfare Of Can
yon county.
The Tribune is pleased that t
Emmett has won. We sincerely
hope that the newly created
county of Gem will be benefit
to all concerned. II

USE CARE WITH ACID SILAGE
Plan of Feeding to Keep Cows In Good
Physical Condition and Induce
Good Work in Dairy.

A good deal of corn is put into the
matured. This year this is particu
larly true. Early frost, or fear of be-
ing overtaken by it has induced
many farmers to cut their corn while
it had little but stalks, the ears being
quite undeveloped. This often makes
acid silage and cows do not do as well
on it as they would on well-matured
corn.
Where a man has to feed this kind
of ensilage he ought to be careful not
to give too much at a feeding. A
small ration of this tender corn will
be eaten with great relish, there being
practically no waste. To balance the
ration and furnish satisfying meal
there should be as much hay given as
the cows will eat up clean, not at the
same time as the ensilage is fed, but
at another time of day. Then, too,
some ground feed will go very well
to supplement still further the unbal
anced ration provided in the corn.
This should not be especially laxa-
tive in it's nature; the COWS are get
ting laxative food enough in the en-
silage. Cornmeal seems good feed;
or ground oats make a rich ration.
Such plan of feeding ought to keep
the COWS in good physical condition
and enable them to do good work In
the dairy.

FEEDING CALVES SOUR MILK
Experiment of Department of AgricuI-
ture Shows Scours Are Due to
UncIeanIy Conditions.

By recent experiment the depart
ment of agriculture seems to show
that scours are not due to sour milk
but to uncleanly conditions. If the
milk is not allowed to stand for any
great length of time and not allowed
to become unclean it is as nourishing
to the young calf as sweet skim milk
and as rapid gains were made in one
case as in the other.
1t was further shown that sudden
changes from sweet to sour and from
sour to sweet made no apparent
change in the calf, although the calf
was only few days old. 1t was
found by experiment, however, that
sour milk does not prove so favorable
in winter as in summer.
