Buys Fine Jersey Sire.

F. H. Sherwood has recently traded
with A. C. Faris of Nampa for his
herd Jersey bull, years and 10
months old, weighing 1910 pounds.
This bull is the finest specimen of the
Jersey type, grandson of the famous
Golden FERNS Lad, P 2160, H. c.,
among whose prize winning sons is
Eminent I'd, first states prize over
Jersey, '01 and '02 with his progeny
sold in the owners 1905 auction for
$4,000; sire of 81 tested daughters.
Golden Ferns Lad is the most famous
bull the Island of Jersey has ever
produced. He has champions and
first prize winners too numerous to
mention. He has 81 tested daughters
and 81 sons with tested daughters
The dam of this bull Sherwood has re-
Gently got when fresh with first calf
made four gallons of milk per day,
testing 6 per cent fat. She is now
proving to be one of the choicest cows
In the whole state. We are more than
glad to have such noted animals come
into our community. Mr.. Sherwood |
will keep this bull out on his farm
only a short distance from town on
the bench, and to those who have good |
healthy cows will breed for $3.50 each.

All through the year wheat is be-
ing harvested. In January it is cut in
the great fields of the Argentine and
in New Zealand. In February and
March it is cut in the East Indies and
Egypt. The wheat fields are harvest
ed in April in Cyprus, Asia Minor,
Persia and Cuba, and in May in
China and Japan. June is the busiest
month of the whole year, for then
Turkey, Greece, Spain and Southern
France, as well as most of the South
ern states of America are all cutting
wheat. The Northerly states of Amer
lea, as well as Austria, Germany and
parts of Russia do their harvest gath
ering in July. August sees the wheat
crop gathered in Great Britain, and
and October for Sweden
and Norway. Peru and South Africa

Here is something you hadn't
thought about: Who will be the next
president of the United States? Rob
ert Lansing. But it isn't necessary
to get excited about it. It's fact,
but fact that needn't upset the cam
paign plans of any presidential can
didate. The secretary Of state isn't
in politics at all, and isn't likely to
be. No convention is going to nomi-
nate him. He isn't going to be elect
ed. Nevertheless, he'll be the next
president, and this is the way of it. A
law enacted in 1886 provides that
whenever the president and vice
president are both unable for any
reason to perform the duties of the
executive Office, the secretary of state
shall act as president. President Will
sons term expires at noon March A,
1917. That is Sunday. It's contrary
TO precedent, although not illegal, to
hold an Inauguration on Sunday. 1t
is planned, therefore, 10 have it on
Monday, March 5. And so for one day
Secretary Lansing will be president.
He will be empowered to occupy the
White House if he chooses, issue par

Dimes, quarters and half dollars of
a new design will be minted after
July l. Secretary McAdoo announces
For the first time since 1891 a change
will be effected in these pieces. The
new design was selected with hope of
restoring the half dollar into more
general circulation. Under the new
coinage, each piece will be of differ
ent design. The half dollar and dime
models were made by Adolph A. Vein
man, and the quarter dollars by
Herman A. MacNeil. Both are sculp-
tors of note. The face of the new half
dollar bears a full length figure of
Liberty with a background of the
American flag flying to the breeze.

Two good farmers declare that a
COW sick with milk fever can be
saved by a very simple process:
Forcing air into the udder with an
automobile pump. After the udder
is dilated with air the milk is drawn
off and the udder dilated again. This
should be repeated three or four times.
The same treatment is recommended
when a fresh COW is suffering from a
caked or infamed bag. Speaking of
cattle cures, here are couple recon-
mended for cattle suffering from Glow
er or alfalfa bloat: Place a cob or
stick in the effected animals mouth
which prevents it from soldering and
also gives it a chance to throw off
the gas collected in its innards." An
other cure for the same disease is 10
take half dozen strips of salt bacon,
pull the sick animals tongue out as
far as possible, place the meat on it
and let loose of the tongue. Before
the animal knows what it is up to it
has swallowed the bacon. The bacon
cure has been used with the very best
results. These are recommended to be
used until veterinary can be secured.

Democrats of the house ways and
means committee has formally adopt
ed as a part Of the general revenue
bill, the Rainey traffic commission bill,
introduced at the instance of the adj
ministration and incorporated in the
general measure antidumping clauses
and provision to prevent unfair COM
petition from foreign business in this.
Nothing definite was done regarding
the income, inheritance and munitions
taxes. The unfair competition provi-
sion is so worded as to put foreign
importers through their agents, in the
same position as American manufac-
turers are under antitrust law. 1t
would make it illegal for foreign i'm
porters to depress the price of goods
to ruin industry.

Can the Austrians take Venice? A
writer in the New York World, view
ing the great Austrian offensive
against Italy, says: at is not beyond
the realm of possibility that Austria
may roll the Italian forces out of the
Northern Tyrol, which would have the
effect of extending the Austrian
Trentino through to the Adriatic sea.
Venice might fall into Austrian hands,
if they have a sufficient force to
throw strong line all the way across
this relatively narrow neck of Italian
The same writer says help
of the allies may not be expected in
view of Italy's selfish campaign to
regain lost territory from the Aus
brians.

The Caldwell Tribune's "Hired
Man" says he knows young man,
hired hand on farm, who is liked
by more young women in his region
than any four other fellows. He is
not half as brainy as others there. He
is not so good looking as several. He
is simply just mannerly. He never
jokes any girls. He knows it is
natural for girl to pardon lack of
He doesn't spend half the money on
the girls that other fellows spend, but
when he does let loose of a dollar he
does it in such way as to make that
girl feel she has been honored. He
talks freely with the girls mother
and can pass half an hour in her
presence in a way that makes her
feel that her daughter has formed a
desirable acquaintance. He never
pulls off shady suggestion under the
guise of joke and he is not eternally
trying to make a girl laugh by at
to be witty. His Eyes" is
yes clear down the line and his "no"
is no all the way back. He can say
goodnight with a meaning that drives
away bad dreams and makes the girl |
want to hear it again week later. He
IS quiet and gentle and mannerly. He
never plays for first place at the
expense of another. He never i'm
presses the girl that he has an unre-
,iprocated love for himself. He never
ellis how much money he has made
n bees, in running a chicken farm, in
bedding apples one fall, in gathering
sweet clover seed, in trading buggies
With a ninny, in short changing a
street car conductor, in selling fake
,old mine stock, in skinning sheep
hat starved, in selling a patent right,
n making homemade mirrors and
water witching in Arkansas. He is
ust simply a mannerly fellow with a
God wholesome respect for young
yomen and a little bird tells them
hey are in the presence of a gen.
inc man.
