LIVE STOCK INCREASING
Million and Quarter More Beef Cattle.
In United States.

For the first time in many years,
information collected by the depart
ment shows that all classes of live
stock In the United States are increas
| ing in numbers. Thus the real facts
| contradict, absolutely, sensational re-
ports that prices for meat and shoes
would rise to unprecedented figures in
the immediate future
ION January l, for example, the
number of beef cattle showed an in
crease of 3.4 per cent over the number
a year ago, and an actual increase of
1,212,000 head. Hitherto the number
of beef cattle in the United States has
declined steadily since 1910. There
are also more mich cows in the coun-
try than last year, the increase being
2.5 per cent, of in number 252.O50.
Swine, however. showed the great
est of all classes-96 per cent. On
January l, 1914, there were only S.
1913 900 swine In the country; on jan
uary !, 1915, 64,618,0OO.
THE facts are that more horses
were on the farms of the United States
ion January 1, 1915, than there were
the year before, the increase being
2S3,O head, or IL per cent. The total
exports since the war began have GER.
tainly been much less than 100000 and
very likely not over $4,000. Since there
are approximately 25,00OOO0 horses
altogether In the United States, the
drain on account of the war is scarce
| ly alarming.
1t is, In fact. pointed out by govern
ment statisticians, that the market
value of farm horses has actually de-.
cllned to such an extent that the aver
age is now about Sc head less than a.
year ago. This decline is most no.
ticeable in the cotton states and In
those states which make a business

RIGHTS OF DRUGGISTS DEFINED
Supreme Court Makes Ruling on Haight
Law.

A test case under the Haight liquor
law, in which the Idaho Pharmaceuti-
cal association was interested, was de-
cided by the supreme court in an
opinion handed down last night. The
opinion holds that the 1918 law did
not prohibit entirely the handling of
intoxicants by druggists in prohibition
territory, and that a bond given by a
druggist for the observance of the law
was a bond only for the safeguard of
the statute and not for absolute pro-
hibition, which would be unnecessary
Canyon county had sought to recover
from the United States Fidelity &
Guaranty company bond of $500
given by the Jacob Forch drug COM
pany as security for its proper OBJ
servance of the Haight law It was
contended that in the sale of wine and
liquors Mr.. Forch had violated the,
law regarding such sales in prohibi-.
ton districts. The district court rem
dered verdict in favor of the de-,
PENDANT, and this is confirmed by the
supreme court,
One point set out by the county In
the F'orch case was that the bond
given by the drug company in COM
pliance with the law was not an ade-
quate bond, In that it did not set forth
the provisions of the law itself. The
law reads that druggist in "dry"'
county shall furnish a bond of $500
to the county as surety for tbs dis
posal of not intoxicating liquor other
than for compromising or preserving
medicine, and for such uses as are not
subject to special government IL
cense The supreme court on this
point implies that the actual provi-
sions of the Haight law exceed it's in
tent, in that the exact compliance
with this regulation would absolutely
prohibit druggists from disposing of
| liquors and therefore render a bond
erfluous.-Capital News.

seems to lose all the common sense he
ever had after election to office.
I have reference to the newly elect
ed canal board Of the Twin Falls Canal

buttons lately passed by them, which
are as follows, II my informant is cor
rect.
That the canal company will fur
nish no water to leased school land.
Now what equity IL there in such a
resolution and what is the board look
ing for, MORE LITIGATION?
Another one reducing our secretary

per month (when he is the only man
in the employ of the company that re-
ally works) but leave the salary OF

since the first above resolution was
made I can see a little good sense in
paying the attorney we'll, as we will
probably need him.

to the fire and 105 per cent at other
duties, while he had nothing to do for
66.5 per cent of the time.
Gan accurate count was kept of the
number of scoops of coal thrown into
termined that in the 1856 tests made,
one ton were thrown into the fire each
hour"
rs this within the capacity of a
single fireman." asked James NJ Shee-
han, counsel for the railroads.
YES" replied Mr.. Tollerton, $4,000
or 5000 pounds is we'll within the ca
pacity of one man. On all of these
tests the fireman used only about one
half of his capacity to handle coal.
On over 1000 observations the fireman
spent less than / per cent of his time
in shaking CRATES and less than ] per
cent more in breaking coal. This indi-
Gates there is really no serious room
for complaint, and if complaints do
exist, they should be handled locally.
The railroads have improved condi-
tons in number of ways"
Mr., Tollerton stated that the test
trains were 10 per cent heavier than
the average trains in the busiest
months and We're / per cent longer
than the average in the 80 days of
heaviest traffic.
From these observations do you
consider two firemen necessary" ask
ed James M. Sheehan, attorney for the
roads.
Absolutely no." replied Mr.. Toller-
ton
Improvements in locomotive design
which have cut one-third from the
physical labor formerly required OF
firemen were described by Mr. Toller-
ton 1.-TWO new inventions alone, the
superheater and the brick arch" he
said, have effected a saving Of 80 per
cent in the amount of coal shoveled
These improvements" said he
render it possible to get the same
results with a great deal less coal
correspondingly relieving the fireman
Conservatively speaking, the super
heater saves 20 per cent of the fuel"
/ do | understand that with two en-
gines, one equipped and the other not
equipped with superheater and per-
forming the same work, the amount OF
coal shoveled by the fireman on the
former will be 20 per cent less ?" asked
Mr.. Sheehan
Yes, sir" replied Mr. Tollerton,
this has been determined by actual
tests and is conservative. There is not
only great saving in fuel but also in
water, SO that the fireman is bound to
save some of his physical effort
Addition of the brick arch effects
another saving of ten per cent of the
fireman's labor is eliminated"
To apply these two devices, it was
pointed out, costs over $4,000 per loco
motive. Yet because 1000 pounds are
thereby added to the engines weight
the roads would have to pay higher
wage to the fireman under the new
demands, although relieved of one
third his shoveling

NOT Ov[RWORK[D
Railroads Claim That Firemen on Big
Engines Have Leisure Time,

Chicago, Feb. 4-Firemen on west
ern railways have been found by over
1000 actual stop watch tests to occupy
more than two-thiTds of their time
viewing the scenery along the right of
way.
This was the bomb dropped today be-
fore the Federal Board of Arbitration
on contentious of the firemen that two
firemen are needed on many locomo-
tlves and that increase in size of en-
Sines has so increased their labors
that higher pay is required
w. j. Tollerton, general mechanical
superintendent of the, Rpck Island
system. by means of charts, presented
the results of these tests to the Board,
taking the stand as a witness in de-
Tense of the roads against increased
wage demands of engineers and fire
men which would add almost Sal, OOO,-
900 to operating expenses of western
railways
These stop watch tests" said Mr..
Tollerton, were made on 20 represen-
tative western roads by travelling en-
gtneers who remained In the cab of the
locomotive and recorded every move
by the fireman. If he was engaged in
any duty at all, either shoveling coal
into the firebox, or shoveling down
coal, sweeping the deck, shaking
crates, or doing anything other than
sitting still on the seat box or stand
ing in the gangway idle, he was credit
ed with the performance, which was
classified and timed by the stop watch.
THE average of these 1856 trips on
locomotives Of all kinds shows that
the firemen were engaged in supplying
coal to the firebox l hour and 40
minutes, or 10 per cent of all, less
than one-fifth of the time he was paid
for. For ~ per cent more of the time
he was either sweeping the deck, show
cling down coal or shaking the CRATES,
hooking the fire or operating the in
jector.
In all he was occupied at some
work just 81 per cent of the time.
while for six hours and minutes, or
50 per cent of the time, he had abso-
lutely nothing to do but look at the
scenery
"On engines of $4,000 pounds or
over where two firemen are demanded,
474 tests were made on Is roads. On
these locomotives the fireman spent %

You know this is so.
Compare the kind of a car that $500

Light Weight Motor Car Is Aid


BY Roy D. Chaplin,
TO build and maintain good roads
would be comparatively easy and in
expensive were we assured that the
bulk of their use would be by light
weight automobiles. It is from very
heavy cars and from trucks that roads
receive their hardest use. BOulevards
and parks where travel is restricted
to light travel require an astOnish-
ingly small expense for upkeep. Mod
crate weight on fairly large section
tires should be encouraged by all mum
! icipalities interested In building and
maintaining good roads To be sure
this can hardly be attained by legisla-
tive action but much may be done by
educational campaigns tending toward
the fostering of this idea in the public
mind The oiled roads of California
are famous. Yet many of them cost
but nominal sum to build and main

hit upon method of building a COM
bination oil and sand road that prom

cars would be used on them the prob
lem really is simple. Even good dirt
road however, is a big improvement
over the highways that usually are
found in the major part of the United
States, and a good dirt road, except
ing in the very worst season In the
year, can be had with the expenditure
Of nothing but little labor. The King
split-log drag can be made by any one
with the expenditure of almost no
money and very little time, and its
regular use by those doing rOadwork
in any community will vastly improve
even the poorest dirt roads. 1t Is per-
haps too much to expect that con-
crete or brick roads could be laid
through all the rural districts but 1t
lis not too much to expect that the
cheap improvement of roads that al
ready exist, is something which should
be taken up by every municipality.
What is needed is not so much money
as it is energy, and willingness to inn
prove the roads, The fact that very
many farmers are buying automobiles
is big assistance, because no sooner
does a farmer become possessed Of
a motor car than he realizes as he
never did, the advantage of the good
road and the ease with which it may
be constructed and maintained.
