WYOMING ELK DISEASED

CHEYENNE, WyO., March 10
Cattle scabies has spread to wild elk
in northwestern Wyoming and fully
10000 elk now are suffering from
the disease, reportes State Veterinar-
ian A. w. French, who returned yes
terday from a trip into the Jackson
Hole region, made in response to a
report that elk there were dying from
a mysterious malady. There is no
way to combat scabies except by dip
ping says the state veterinarian, and
as 1t will be impossible to dip wild
elk the scabies must be permitted
to run its course in the herds, prob
ably causing the death of large num-
bers.
Wiki elk in the Jackson Hole coun-
try also are suffering from the effects
of eating moldy hay provided by the
federal government. About $50 head
have died from this cause. AS no
other hay is available for feeding the
elk, the use of the moldy hay must
be continued, regardless Of it's effect
on the animals, which will starve to
death il they are not fed.

OUT OF THE UNITS
COMES GREATNESS

The world is made of atoms; the
nations of the earth are units. Our
republic is unit amon0 the rest, and
is what the lesser units, the states,
make 1t. II the republic is ever to
aspire to be the most commanding
unit among the whole, it must be
made SO by the states-the units be-
hind 1t. What is the Utah unit doing
to add to its greatness and thru II
to the greatness of the republic? The
changes for good In the world are
wrought by labor; labor of the
hands; labor of the minds, that in
their succession carry on the world a
work.
What are we in Utah doing? How
many new places for men who need
work have been created in the year
gone by? How many new enterprises
have been launched during the past
year which are offering places for
men who must live by the labor of
their hands?
Again we are all interdependent.
We all more or less depend upon
each other. When Mr.. Bell was work.
ing to perfect his telephone, he was
perhaps dreaming that thru it, so
many people would need it, that he
might be able to save from it an
independence. But when he did per-
feet it he saw that to meet the de-
mand for 1t, thousands and tens of
thousands of men and women would
necessarily be given employment at
fair wages, to take up the mysterious
voice which he had created and carry
it on, and that the little instrument
he had created was in fact a miracle,
the voice of which with a few more
improvements might possibly be
made to call responses from the
stars, but that it's supreme use was
in giving poor men and women places
where they might for themselves gain
honorable livelihoods.
When the power loom was invent
ed in England and the steam engine
was utilized to supply the power, the
working men in that country banded
together and destroyed the factories,
under the fear that they would lose
their old places Their eyes were
blinded; they could not see that
naked world was waiting to be cloth
ed, so soon as the clothing became
cheap enough, and that what they
were destroying was really destined
to give millions besides themselves
employment and to make their
country the richest Of empires.
Are the men of Utah working with
high motives, and planning while
they work to make places where
other men can work, that Utah may
be made richer, that she as a sub
unit may make the great unit Of the
republic notwithstanding Week
ly.

THE TRIPLE NAVY

The dreadnaught PENNSYLVANIA
will go into commission in a few
weeks. 1t is described as perhaps
the most formidable ship that was
ever built. Her cost, we understand,
will be some $8,O00,000, and she will
carry crew of about 1000 men. If
ever engaged in battle it is expected
that she will make good the old
traditions of the foremost ships that
in the past have hallowed and given
splendor to our flag.
This is WELL, and two or three of
her class, with perpetual struggle
for new devices to add to their re-
structive power, should be added to
the navy annually.
: At the same time an English war;
ship was destroyed recently by a
bomb dropped upon it from an aero
plane. That ship of the clouds cost
but trife, and only four men risked
their lives in operating it. The les
son is that while the dreadnaughts
should not be neglected, there should
be perpetual struggle to make the
navy of the air more effective. At
the same time equal attention should
be given to those little assassins call
ed submarines. They cost but little
by comparison, but few lives are risk
ed in operating them, and they are
what the pebble was in David's sling
where they have a chance. They
should have full attention. They
have become most formidable in the
present war. The struggle should
be to make them the real guardians
of our coasts, and the guardians of
the coasts of Latin America-they
and the navy of the air.
But, speaking of the Pennsylvania,
it will be a wonder when ready for
sea.
1t will have a speed of perhaps
21a knots per hour, and fire $4,000
pounds-nine tons of projectiles, at
a single broadside from its twelve
14-inch guns. She is Of 31,400 tons
burden.
She is 600 feet long and carries
14-inch guns. She has, too, four 81
inch submerged torpedo tubes.
A little more than 200 yards from
the spot where the Pennsylvania is
receiving the finishing touches is the
Elder Dempster liner Appam, captur-
ed by a German raider and brought
to Newport News as prize Of war
by a German crew from the raider.
When the Germans got into Newport
News the first vessel that they saw
waa tho ma pnificouf nnw haft1oship
Lieutenant Berg, the prize command
err, and his men did not hesitate to
express their admiration for the
mighty fighter.
Such a ship is something to be
proud of truly. In even battle she
could cope with the worlds best.
But what pity that nation that
can plan and build ship like that,
has not the common sense to build
and sail a merchant marine that
would fifty supplement her ships Of
war.-Goodwin' Weekly.

A WORD TO THE HOG
RAISERS OF IDAHO

Hog raisers are greatly encour.
aged in their particular industry by
the fiattering prices being paid by
livestock commission merchants In
the Puget Sound country. The as
ISOLATION of commission merchants
in that particular territory has en-
phasized the prosperous condition OF
the country and the prospects of a
bright future.
Owing to the fact that the demand
for hog products is steadily increas-
ing, there is no question but that the
hog industry will be stimulated in
the near future. Puget Sound, being
the gateway for the great oriental
and Alaska trade, is enabling its
commission men to pay higher prices
for hogs than any other point on the
pacific coast. The prices range in
the Seattle market is Is to rs cents
per 100 pounds, higher than and
other point, at all seasons of the
year and their advice to the farmer
is to increase his hog products to
a larger extent and not be discour-
aged by last seasons conditions. 1t
has become known that in several
sections of the country contracts for
May delivery have been placed at
$3.50, and altho this price is appar-
emily a good stiff price, at the same
time it is firmly believed that they
will go even higher and it will be
no surprise to see them sell at 10
cents or better.
Similar occurrences have been met
with in other parts Of the country.
For instance, one year ago the con-
ditions we're not exactly favorable in
the Alberta country and farmers be-
came discouraged, and marketed
their pigs and brood sows as much
as possible with the intention Of cur
failing or going out Of the business
entirely. The result is that an in
creased demand for hogs has stimu-
lated the business to such an ex-
tent that they are selling from 1925
to $3.50. History repeats itself, as
everybody is aware, and from the ex-
perience of men who have given this
subject deep thought and study, good
judgment will tell the farmer that
tHlS 10 tHo OppOFGuuo Lim0 u luCf0aSo
his herds instead of decreasing them.
OF course, 1t is needless for any
person to advise the hog producers
that this part Of his industry is the
money maker, the mortgage litter,
and the means by which he accumu-
lates a good bank balance.
The capacity of the Seattle market
requires in the neighborhood of 1000
hogs per day, and it is the earnest
desire of the packers to buy their
hogs in the country which is tribu-
tary to this market, and thereby re-
tain the money in this section in
stead of having to go east for the
majority of their supplies.
The above facts should be con-
vincing to every farmer in Idaho,
since they have all been founded ON
very good authority, and it is earn
estly hoped that they will take 1t
seriously under consideration and
follow the advice herein given.-Ex-
change.

OUR NEW RESPONSIBILITIES

In one of his midle west state
speeches last week President Wilson
said in substance that our nation had
suddenly been thrust to the fore
front of the nations in the conduct
of TIE worlds business. If this is
true now are we meeting the new
and fearful responsibilities that have
been thrust upon US?
Which of the outside nations has
withdrawn it's bank account from
abroad and obtained check book
with which to open an account with
us? 1t is said that Great Britain
has been doing wonderful business,
especially with Latin America ever
since the war opened. What have
we done with any of them except to
warn all Americans and other
foreigners to get out of Mexico be-
cause we can no longer protect them?
Are Brazil and Argentine looking to
us for supplies or for market for
their rubber, sugar, coffee and other
products which they desire to export?
The report is that the Wyoming In
dams are selling their ponies to the
agents of the allies and buying auto
mobiles with the money. Now there
is some style about that. Can out
government boast of an advance COM
parable with that which has come
thru the war?
Is the flag of the United States
familiar spectacle in any foreign
port in the world? How are we meet
ing this new. august, and suspicious
responsibility that has been thrust
upon us?
At home we can neither protect
our little farmers down on the Rio
Grande, nor avenge their murders
when they are killed. Abroad, all
we are sending away by our own
conveyances is the lamentable cry
that Boston and the Charleston navy
yard are in imminent danger of be-
ing bombarded from 16 miles out at
sea by the entire British navy, mass
ed for that purpose. Even as the old
histories told how when the Bunker
Hill fight was on, a British sloop OF
war wore around and raked the
tiimsy redoubt from end to end, so
we are said to be helpless to precent
the invasion of Massachusetts,. How
are we meeting our great new re-
sponsibilities ?-Goodwin's Weekly.

yards.
s.. Spittoons should be made of
metal and never contain sawdust or
other combustable material.
6. Gasoline, naphtha, or other
volatile oils, should not be kept In
buildings.
z. Gas brackets should have stiff
fixtures; where necessary to use
swinging brackets, all exposed wood
work should be protected with sheet
metal leaving an air space. Metal
bells should be placed over gas jets
ON low ceilings.
8. Steam pipes should be kept
clear from all combustable material.
8. Open fiue holes should be pro-
tected with sheet iron or better be
