NEW CREAMERY A BIG SUCCESS.

The local creamery turned out two
thousand pounds of butter last week
the third week of it's existence-and
churned an even one thousand pounds
on Monday of this week, which will
make the present week g output reach
well above the record of last week. The
creamery produced 4450 pounds of but
ter during the first tifteen days OF Its
operation, which is mighty nice record
for an infant industry that was CON
demned to failure before it was started.
Besides supplying the local trade and
that of nearby towns, the creamery now
has a standing order of 600 pounds OF
butter per week from the new creamery
at Coeur d'Alene and is rapidly in
vading other territory. The creamery
under the management of Herbert kiee-
man is turning out first class article
| in the butter line and will have nc
trouble in disposing of its entire out
put as soon as the brand becomes known
to the public. =,
Besides manufacturing quite a quantity
of ice cream for the prairie trade, the
creamery is also receiving nice income
from the sale of buttermilk to local hoe
men who find this by-product fine
feed for growing pigs.-Cottonwooc

VALUES OF MORALITY AND
CLEANLINESS BEING TAUGHT
FIRST IDAHO ATTENDS
LECTURE-GUARDS
ON HIKE.
(By Earl Bowman Capital News Cores
pondent.)

(By Earl Bowman Capital News Cores
pondent.)
Nogales, Ariz., Aug. 6.-(By maiD-
The first battalion of the Second Idaho
listened to most profitable lecture in
the amusement tent at the Twelfth in
fantry camp last night. The lecture
was given by Major Skinner and dealt
with the conservation of physical man
hood. 1t was profusedly illustrated with
lantern slides made from life. Some of
them were horribly realistic. The sub
ject is most timely and the men learned
many things which will no doubt cause
greater consideration by them of their
health-which will prevent risks that
are unwarranted and which may be
avoided by the exercise of self-restraint.
These lectures are a part of the edu-
cational process. They are powerful
auxiliaries to the campaign for moral
ity and cleanliness among the men. 1t
is source of immense qualification to
see the deep and serious interest off
GERS and men alike give to them.
Apropos of this subject morality has
won the first round in the battle with
:" the other places"
Strong guards have been thrown
around them and day and night sell
tries pace back and forth before the
dives-representing the strong arm of
law and order held between the men
and the temptations and dangers of the
dives. 1t is well. j am glad that this
word may be sent home-that the gov
ernment through the army authorities
has taken firm and vigorous stand
against these other places and that the
protection of the moral welfare of the
lads is considered and thus assured.
