BOISE MANUFACTURERS OF
SERUM IN CITY SATURDAY
States that Mouth and Foot Disease
Has Been Spread by Serum.

E. w. Yeomans, manufacturer OF
hog cholera serum at Boise, one of
the leading hog raisers of the state,
and a we'll known business man OF
the capital city, was In Caldwell last
Saturday. Owing to the proclama-
ton recently issued by DR.. H. George
Bodle, state veterinarian, prohibiting
the importation of hog cholera serum
into the state, a considerable and
acrimonious controversy has been
provoked.
"The state took the action it took
because in numerous instances the
foot and mouth disease has been in
troduced in the west through the use
of imported hog cholera serums. The
proclamation issued by the state of
Idaho is in line and the same as
proclamations issued by practically
all of these western states in an effort
to prevent the introduction of the foot
and mouth disease.
1T has been claimed that there has
been collision in some manner or
other between the state authorities
and the Boise serum plant. There is
absolutely nothing to this contention.
| have never in any manner or form
made it to the interest of any one to
use the serum we manufacture except
by giving them a serum which does
the business. 1t is in no way to
the interest Of Dr. Bodle or any one
else to encourage the use of our ser
um except that it is serum that
stands the test and accomplishes the
purpose.
1T has been stated that the Boise
plant is a filthy place and that serum
manufactured there is dangerous to
use. The Boise plant is open to pub
lie inspection at any time. invite
any one interested to visit the plant
and see for himself. As to the danger
of using the serum I refer to the
hundreds of hog growers who have
used our serum. | am not afraid OF
the verdict of any uninterested hog
grower. Our serum is a successful
serum in that it accomplishes its pur-
pose with minimum of loss and
refer you to the hog growers of your
immediate vicinity. Even some OF
those who are now denouncing the
Boise plant were satisfied to use our
serum until they became interested
in another way. Our serum was
good enough for Prof. Ireland until
he got his present government posi-
ton"
Mr.. Yoemans invited representa-
tive of The Tribune to visit his Boise
plant. The invitation was accepted
and an account of the investigation
into conditions there appears else
where in this issue of The Tribune.

Boost Your Own Town.

Some sing the praise of Portland, Nc,
and some of Portland, Ore,
While others cannot talk enough
about old Baltimore;
You can spot the zap New Yorker and
the breezy man from "Chi"
And we've met with those who told
US: "See Los Angeles, then die. "
But do you sing the glories Of your
own home town at all?
Remember you can talk about it, even
it it's small.
We hear & 10 Of 'Frisco'2 charms
from people of the West;
We've Leon ".sured that OF al ii :
DcrNer vas the best;
We knew a lnah who talke ABOUT
Seattle by the hour;
And one who talked of naught but
Minneapolis-and -four;
Do we ever hear you Boosting, though
about your port of call?
Remember, you can talk about it
even if it's small.
About Dixie's lovely cities we have
heard ad nauseam;
There are those who even Baraboc
with no faint praise would damn
Well remember all Our lives mar
who from St. Louis hailed,
And another who to talk of Philadel
phia never failed;
We hear lot of Buffalo, of Pittsburt
or St. Paul
So why not try to boost old Caldwell
no matter if it's small?
