EXCEEDS PAST YEARS
Livestock Show Gets Suprors

Wallace B. Stanton, formerly
news editor of the Lewiston Daily
Tribune and now associated with
the publicity department of the
Northwest Live Stock show, is ar
visitor in Kendrick attending the
Kendrick District Fair. He states
that reports already reaching the
Office Of Secretary Smith, Of the
Northwest Live Stock association
assure a larger exhibit at the COM
ing show than has been the case in
the past. The significance of this
statement can best be understood
when it is considered that in the
past as many as 5000 animals have
been on display at the Lewiston
show. The dates of the coming
show will be November 29-Decem-
ber 4, inclusive.
Mr.. Stanton explains that
throughout the Northwest leading
growers of live stock and farmers
interested in the livestock industry
now realize that the Lewiston show
is the expert livestock exhibition
of the western country, maintained
on lines that give it standard close
up to the Denver Western, Kansas
City Royal and Chicago Internation-
al shows and is therefore of real
service in promoting this greatest
of industries dealing with agricul-
tural development. The railroads
also realize this fact and this year
are giving their fullest influence in
support of the end that the show
shall in all lines far surpass the
previous exhibitions.

Must Have Special Permit

Governor Alexander authorized
the issuance of a proclamation pro-
hibiting the importation into Idaho
of any anti-hog cholera serum or
virus except by special permit by
the state veterinarian. This pro-
clamation seeks to prevent the
scattering of the dread disease Of
cholera among hogs by bringing
into the state of an inferior virus,
held to be responsible for much of
the trouble the hog raisers have
been experiencing with cholera.
The proclamation states it is a
known fact that, this serum and
virus has caused the disease. The
state livestock and sanitary board
considered the matter of asking the
quarantine to be issued some time
ago when it was shown by reports
received by the state veterinarian
that hogs were being taken sick
almost daily through the use ,ofAin-
ferior virus. The fact that this
serum is being used in many parts
of the, state more now than ever
before resulted. in the step being
taken to block its further use.

pleased with the treatment they re-
ceived.
Thursday the day of the fair, was
banner day. A large delegation of
the citizens of Juliaetta was present,
about two hundred strong. This
neighboring town came to repay the
call made by the Kendrick citizens
the Fourth of July when they were
holding a three days celebration.
Their presence was a pleasing event
in the history of the fair. A dele
CATION of business men of Lewiston
were also present to help make the
last day grand success, The resid-
ence of the entire Potlatch country
were present and proved to the cit
liens of Kendrick that their hearts
were in the right place and that they
wanted to make the fair one that
will be long remembered. The far
mers of the entire empire of Pot
latch have surely did themselves
proud by placing on exhibit the
wonderful display of produce pro:
produced on their farms. 1t is by
their hearty cooperation If the
country and town folks that the fair
was possible and proved beyond a
doubt the most successful event in
history of the Empire of ours. Next

FACTS ABOUT TEAK.

The Bureau of Foreign and Domes-
tic Commerce, Department of Com
merce, has just published, in pamphlet
form, an account of the teak-market
situation in two of the countries of
southeastern Asia. The detailed in
formation contained in it was gather
ed by Commercial Agent Franklin H.
Smith during the course of his in
vestigations into the lumber markets
of the Far East and Australasia.
Teak is one of the most valuable
and Interesting of woods. Teak logs
when first cut will not float. 1t is
STRONGLY and characteristiclly scent
ed, of oily texture, and the surface
feels greasy to the touch. The oil s
considered to resist the entrance of
water into the wood and to prevent
the wood becoming watersoaked after
it has once been thoroughly seasoned.
Teak darkens with age and finally, af-
ter number of years, becomes al
most black
The principal use of teak is in
shipbuilding, especially for decking
and as backing for armor plate. It's
durability and lack of corrosive effect
On steel make it particularly suitable
for the latter purpose. Teak has been
used to some extent for gun carriages
but is not considered we'll adapted for
that purpose, on account of it's split
ting too readily. In India it is used for
ali purposes in house and ship build
irg, for bridges, railway sleepers, fur
niture, shingles, etc. 1t is also used
for carving, the Burmese carved teak
wood being especially noted, ,r
