MAKES TRIP
TO ICE CAVE
Large Number Visits Great
Freak of Nature

Last Sunday many of the Richfielo
people enjoyed a days outing with a
visit to the ice caves twenty miles
northwest of here on the Big Wood
river. A party consisting of DR.. Har-
dan, LeProhom, Johnson. Farmer
Bill" and Major Youngkin as chaper-
one, left Richfeld after lunch in
Youngkin's parlor car, 'Spitfire." and
after a forty minute ride over the
best roads in the state we landed d !
the foot of the lava rocks on the west
side of the Byrnes ranch. From here
a walk of one and one-half miles
over tn the lavas brings one to the
entrance to the cave. AT the mouth
of long extinct crater, the first en-
trance to the cave is through an open
ing in the rocks about ten feet wide,
and from two and one-half to five feet
high. Here you strike a solid floor
of ice which extends about fifteen
feet into the cave where you come to
sheer drop of twelve feet AT this
point you find a ladder securely fast
ened to a large bar driven into a
crevice in the rocks. You make the
decent on this ladder and find your
self on another platform where a
gradual slope of a few feet lands you
in the first cavern. This room is
about 30x75 feet with height of from
IL to 20 feet with a solid floor of ice
and the walls frescoed with frost and
ice. Passing through this room one
which leads you into the main, or larg-
est room. and here is a sight truly
wonderful to gaze upon The room
is about $50 feet long, 80 to so feet
wide and 20 to 40 feet high. The
floor is of solid ice, the walls and cell
ings are covered with deep coating
Of frost and ice, and from the ceiling
hang untold number of stalactites of
ice, and that, when a flash light is
thrown on them, gl1Sten like diamonds
and the effect is wonderful The end
Of this room is of a solid Ice formation
and has the look of huge ice cakes
piled one on the other, and frozen to-
gether.
The sight is truly wonderful
freak of nature and we'll worth the
time and trouble to go miles to see
Among the many parties who visit
ed the cave Sunday were Mr.. and
Mrs. Wilcox, Mr.. and Mrs. Collins.
Or. and Mrs. Powell, Fred Crane and
family and Miss Everitt, Tom Brynes
and family and Mrs. Burton. There
were also several auto loads from

DO NOT BURN STRAW

Mr. Andrew Boss of the Minnesota
University says the custom Of burn
ing straw piles, though very prevalent,
is very wasteful one. The best way
to return straw to the lands, where
is greatly increases production. is
through livestock. 1t may also be
spread thinly over the land and plow-
ed under.
Hopkins Of the Illinois station says
that oat straw is worth $3.50 per ton
as fertilizer, and wheat straw is
worth $2.5S.
Thomas Shaw says burning straw
has been too common in the west, and
that where the fallow system is fol-
lowed the straw could be turned under
and decomposed during the fallow
season.

STOCK FARMING
GOOD FOR LAND

Grain farming reduces the fertility
of the soil. Stock flaming increases
it. Grain farming reduces the humus
In the soil. Stock raising increases
cal condition of the soil. Stock farm
ing improves it. Grain farming fost
ers weeds, plant diseases and insects
while stock raising decreases them.
Stock raising develops thrift-pay as
you go. Grain farming developes the
credit system. Grain farming brings
on the mortgage. Stock raising pays
it off. The labor for grain farming
is expensive while that for stock
farming is cheaper in that it is en-
gagged by the year. Grain raising is
dependent on the season. Stock farm
ing is quite independent of the season.
Taking care of stock is splendid train
ing for the boys and girls. People
with the instinct for stock raising are
and have been the dominant people of
the world. Grain farming is a soil
robber: hence it is only possible Oh
a new soil and then only for short
time.
The aim of every farmer should be
to gradually work into some phase of
live stock farming. This results in
Of crops and a home market
for the grain and hay. In this way,
as much grain can be grown on the
farm as though it were all given to
grain. as the yield will be larger due
weeds. less plant disease, better me-
condition of the soil, etc.
The only permanent agriculture is
that which is based on live stock
farming and permanent agriculture
means profitable agriculture.

Former British Ambassador TO the

Government Should Stop De-

London.-Viscount Bryce, formerly
British ambassador TO the United

Press a pea that America try to stop
the slaughter of Armenians.
The civilized world" he says in
his plea, especially America, ought to
know what horrors have been passing
in As.atic Turkey during the last few
ncr-ss, for if anything can sop the
destroying hand Of the Turkish gov
ernment it will be an expression OF
the opinion of neutral nations, chiefly
the judgment of humane America.
Soon after the war broke out be-
tween Turkey and the allies" contin-
ues the viscount, the Turkish gov
ernment formed, and since has been
carrying out with relentless cruelty
a plan for extirpating Christianity by
killing off Christians Of the Armenian
race. Accounts from different sources
agree that over the whole OF eastern
and northern Asia Minor and Ar
menia the Christian population Is be-
ing deliberately exterminated. the
men of military age being killed and
the younger women seized fer Turk
ish harems, compelled to become Mo-
hammedans and kept with children in

Turkish soldiers into unhealthy parts
of Asia Minor, some to the deserts
between Syria and the Euphrates.

GERMANS HAVE SUCCEEDED IN
ALMOST ENTIRELY SURROUND
ING PART OF RUSSIAN ARMY.
Wilma is Taken by German Forces
and Russians Must. Fight Their
Way Out Eastward or Retire in
a Southeasterly Direction.

The Germans have occupied Wilma.
according to advices reaching Lon
don, and, by wide-sweeping move
ment to the north of that city, have
succeeded in almost entirely surround
ing a portion of the Russian army,
which is fighting in the railway tri-
angle between Wilma, Ida and Vileika-
At any rate, the Russian forces in
this district either must fight their
way out eastward or retire in south
easterly direction, for the only rail-
way left entirely in their hands IL
that which runs from Wilma to Ida,
and thence to Baranovitchi.
The army of Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg, which took Wilma and has
reached Vileika, to the east Of Wilma,
is working in close cooperation with
that of Archduke Leopold of Bavaria
In an effort to catch part Of the
Russian army, an operation which has
been so often tried without success
since the AustroG Germans commenced
their drive in western Galicia In early
May.
Ine RUSSIANS express commence LII
the outcome of the battle, but with
their northern armies held closely
along the Dvina and the German flank
we'll protected by their cavalry, which
recently occupied Widsy, across the
Vilna-P -Petrograd railway, it seems i'm
possible that any aid can come to
them from that direction.
The situation in the Balkans and at
the Dardanelles has reached crisis.
Car Ferdinand of Bulgaria and the
king of Roumania are reported to be
holding a conference at place on
the Danube, the location of which is
kept secret. 1t is believed that this
conference will decide the action of
the Balkan powers. The chief inter
est lies in the fact that the action Of
the Balkan league will decide the all
important Dardanelles campaign.
Both the Germans and the French
claim minor victories on the western
front, but neither there. in the Ital-
ian theatre, no< in the Dardanelles
have any events Of great moment been
reported recently.

UNDESIRABLE WORK
THAT OF PROMOTING

A great deal has been said in re-
gard to the work Of the average
creamery promoter, but never the less
these promoters have been very ac-
tive in Idaho this summer. Several
creameries have been organized at
places in Idaho where conditions did
not at all warrant the building ana
equipping OF a creamery. At one
place such a creamery was worked
up by a promoter and sold to the
should have cost. and although it has
been ready to run for over a month.
it is said that not wheel has turned
yet. The disgusting thing about the
whole matter is the fact that therS
are very few cows within a six mr.
radius of this creamery and little or
no cream to make into butter.
At another place a creamery is be.
ing built at the present time at a cost
of s55OOOO which should not have COST
more than sSOOo.O0. AS far as can be
learned, very little cream is being pro-
duced at this point. a cream receiver
stating that about six cans of cream
each week were shipped out from that
point last winter over the railroad.
This amount of c.eam is quite insult
ficient for the operation Of a creamery,
and further information leads one to
believe that the farmers are not great
ly interested in dairying in this vicin-
ity.
These are TYPICAL promoters cream
cries and if the creameries do not
succeed. dairying will suffer a set
back of at least five years as a result
II the farmers in any certain COM
munity feel that conditions are favor
able for a creamery, they should first
refer it to some one who is we'll in
formed on conditions desirable for
creamery before placing the matter
in a promoters hands. The Dairy
has such information at
hand and stands ready to assist farm
ers in the construction of oreameries.

DEATH LIST
MUCH LESS
Safety First Saves Many
Lives On Railroad

The Union Pacific railroad system
will be gwen an absolutely clean bill
on Passengers Killed" during the
hscal year ending June so, 1915. in
The report of the Interstate Commerce
COMMISSION which will soon be issu-
ed. And the number OF passengers
injured, for the same period, will snow
almost negligible in the Commission ;
report.
Two years ago The Union Pacihc
system adopted a motto of Safety
First" Every empioye, regardless of
ms position, was enlisted in the work
of making the UIon Pacinc not oniy
as safe as any other system in the
country, but absolutely safe for the
employees.
The clean bill which the Interstate
Commerce commissions report viii
show Is the result of that safety
campaign.
Not one passenger was killed on the
entire Union Pacinc system from end
10 end, main line and branch line,
during the last fiscal year. In that
period S,s51,364 passengers entrusted
themselves on the thousands of miles
of branch roads of Union Pacific. and
upon the main line trains from Omaha
to Portland, Seattle and Spokane,
from Salt Lake to Butte and from
Kansas City to Denver and Cheyenne.
and not one single passenger lost his
life, although. together, these $751;
364 passengers Travelled nearly one bill
lion miles during that year. Not only
ooes this apply to those passengers
actually on board the trains, but it
includes those who were preparing to
trains of the company. Regardless OF
whether the blame lay with the rail-
roa, or was due the grossest, most
flagrant carelessness on the part of
the passenger, the fact remains that
during the fiscal year ending June 80,
1915. not one single Union Pacific pas
senger was killed.
One of the points insisted upon by
the Interstate Commerce commission
is that. should any passenger die as
the result of an accident while on
board a train, or while either board
in, . !,
shall be charged to train accidents"
So, when the Commission gave Union
Pacific system a clean bill for last
year, it meant that not only was no
killed instantly, but that
not one died from the effect of an
accident during the year.
And speaking Of accidents, the num-
ber of passengers injured on the
Union Pacific system for the entire |
year. according to the Commissions |
report, was just 39s and the total
number of passengers carried for the |
year was S,s51,364. These s.s51.se4
travelled S47.93S.544 miles,
None were killed and but 399 injured |
But Union Pacific's Safety First
is not beneftting passen-
gers alone Employees are reaping
handsome returns on the efforts they |
are making to prevent accidents to
each other. A comparison of the
igures showthat the number of cas-
lalties 1 n1913. before the Safety |
First campaign was launched, was
more than cut in half last year. And
he number of injured from accidents, J
or the same years, was just quar-
cred. To be exact, there was a re-
luction Of 52.5 per cent in the "em
oloyes killed" column and of 25-6 per
,ent in the "employes. injured; list.
