SWALLOWS NICKEL AND DIES
(From Falmouth o.

TFrOm FALMOUTH UutIOOK.J
Mr.. and Mrs. Elmer E. Fossett took
their bright and pretty little 49,
months-old daughter, Lola May, to
Cincinnati Tuesday morning to be ex-
amined with the X-Ray. The child
swallowed a nickel on Thursday of
last week and it lodged at the en-
trance of the stomach. The child
could not swallow anything but liq-
uid food. 1t seems that the nickel
lodged edgewise, and not entirely
closed the entrance to the stomach.
The X-Ray was used to locate the
nickle. The surgeon tried to extract
the nickel from the baby's throat by
probing for it. The attempt was too
severe and proved fruitless. Pneu-
monia developed and death followed
in a short time.

PRIMARY ELECTION SATURDAY
Democrats and Republicans Both

Interest appears to be rather light
In the primary which will be held
Saturday in the Eighth congressional
district. Both of the democratic
candidates have been using consid-
cradle printers ink in an effort to
make friends and arouse their
friends to action, and have been
travelling over the district extensive
ly. The republican candidates have
been making more or less still hunt
but have been doing much riding it is

son, Of this city, who is opposed to
l.. I. Neat, of Columbia, for. the
republican nomination, say he is a
sure winner, but are taking no
chances. In regard to the democrat
&c nomination, both candidates feel
very confident, it is said. A light
vote is expected in both parties.
The election officers who will hold
the primary in Lincoln county are as

Arbitration
Is Bound
to Come

A newspaper headline says compul-
sorry arbitration will be fought by
organized labor.
If this were a fact it would operate
to create public sentiment against
organized labor.
Possibly it may not be fact and
possibly labor politicians and agita-
tors take that view
The masses and rank and file OF or
ganized labor are seldom heard on
such matters of their own motion
proposition is submitted to them
by their leaders, referendum vote
is taken and that decides.
The majority do little or no think
ing as is the case in all organizations
but follow leaders.
Leadership may be selfish and dem
agogic or unselfish and statesmanlike.
But arbitration is coming to take the
place of strikes and all forms OF in
dustrial militarism.

company, reports that as general

lieves that in time the United States

porter of beet seed.
The three companies in Utah and
Idaho have paid for approximately %
per cent of their entire crop, all de-
liveries up to October 31st being set
tied for November 18th by the offices
in Salt Lake, Ogden and Layton.

GOOD PRICES
FOR WESTERN
LIVESTOCK
War Conditions Cause a
World Shortage and the
Demand is Great.

The live stock situation throughou
the world points to an era of gooC
prices for American-bred live stock
Not only does it happen that Europe
is selling and eating itself short, bu
the live stock production of the agri
cultural countries outside of Europe
is not keeping pace with the growth
of these countries Western Canada
is eagerly buying foundation stock
with which 10 build up herds for the
future. The same thing is true of the
other lands mentioned, and the United
States, south of Mason and Dixon's
line, the great diversified farming
movement of the past half-decade is
insistently calling for all the good
breeding stock that can be brought
in.
AS a consequence of this world
storage and demand the live stock
business of the United States is in a
thriving condition, with the outlook
for the future most excellent. Between
the demands for bodybuilding pur-
poses and the going consumption de
mands of the local and export trade,
the live stock farmer is facing sit
uation in which the only danger is
that high prices may persuade him
to sacrifice his breeding stock. When
one considers that, broadly speaking,
the agriculture Of the United States
is on a live stock rather than grain
growing basis, and that the dairies,
CT dameries, cheese factories, and
packing plants rather than the cash
grain crops are representative of the
typical American farm of today, he is
led to believe that the situation from
the standpoint of the American farm
er is an exceedingly hopeful one and
that this great industry with its an
nual business overturn of nearly ten
billion dollars Is due to an era of ex-
pansion that will be reflected in the
DeJIer equipment lOr Ire Adiihs, eho
erection of better farm homes, the de-
of still better live stock,
the building of roads and schools, and
all that goes to make country life
In this connection the reader should
not forget that while the farmer is or
dinarily thought Of as producer he

THE TOWN
VERSUS THE
COUNTRY
An Exchange Advances an
Argument That Fits Our
Own Community.

One serious obstacle to the develop
ment of this country is the unreas-
oning antagonism that exists between
the town and the country.
Why this should exist is hard to
see. in view of the fact that each is
largely dependent upon the other in
many of the relations of life I'm
fortunately, however, it is fact with
which we have to deal when consider
ing any matter of import to the peo-
pie of this section. This prejudice
frequently manifests itself In a con-
viction of the country man that the
town man is always watching for an
opportunity to do" him. He is con-
vinced that all existant evil has its
origin in the towns. The town man,
to this man, exists for no other pur-
pose than to prey off the farmers
On the other hand it frequently oc-
ours that the people of the town be-
come imbued with tn ebelief that the
country people have it in for them"
Thus are the relations between the
two in a strained condition, and the
most ordinary business relations are
hindered and blocked by this reason
ing and unreasonable jealousy.
Perhaps you say the picture is ov-
erdrawn. 1t is not The writer has
seen it in this very community. And
unfortunately in many instances the
prejudice is well founded 1t is a
fact that the clannish spirit is the
last to die of all the savage instincts
of man. my clan and my class mean
everything TO me, and your clan and
your class are my natural enemies
That is the sub-conscious reasoning
of many men even yet-and men in
whom we least expect it.
Like many other causes of friction
between people, this condition grows
from slight causes, and a little toll
Grafton and charity at the right time
and place will go long way toward
remedying matters.
Also stress the fact that the two
elements, the farming and the COM
mercial, are mutually dependent up
on each other-their interests one.

Packing Plants
for Butte and
Salt Lake

Of more than passing interest is
the report announced that work is
well under way on packing houses
that will represent at Butte and Salt
Lake an investment Of half million
dollars at each city. This establish
ment is destined to have an important
place in the State. It means that
home market has been created for
livestock and that the farmers of
Montana, Utah and Idaho will be as
sured better prices and better fail
tiles for marketing their stock than
they have heretofore.
The packing plants will pay special
attention to the intermountain hog, al
ready recognized as the equal Of the
corn-fed animal Of the Middle West
At one time this region produced more
range cattle than any other. For many
years 1t ranked first in the production
Of sheep. Now it will become an I'M
portant producer OF pork and pork
products. The natural conditions are
favorable here to hog growing.
NOT MUCH LEGISLATION NEEDED
The amount Of space the press is
called upon to give to politics is out
of all proportions to benefits.
Who is president, congressman or
coroner makes not five cents differ
ence to the average publisher.
But political campaigns do hurt
business and political propositions
mean new laws and more taxes.
Industries and business as rule
are hindered more than helped by new
and untried legislative experiments,
New and higher ideals forced upon
the people before they are ready for
them are often expensive luxuries.
1t is to be hoped that Congress- and
the State legislatures Will not make
! it any harder to live and e6t m
ployment.

Criticizes Gov
ernment Bureau

A very interesting and instructive
session of the Current Events cluI
was held yesterday evening at the Y
M. c. A. The club was addressed by
S. J. Donaldson, manager Of the
Southern Idaho Producers associa
tion, who took as the subject Of his ad
dress and for the discussion, Govern
ment Crop Reports. Mr. Donaldson il
his talk severely criticised the govern
ment crop estimate bureau and maii,
tanned that the inaccuracy Of the fig
ures sent out by the bureau was in
directly the cause Of the loss of thous
ands Of dollars by the Idaho farmers
this year
After Mr.. Donaldson had finished
his address the matter was thrown
open to the club for discussion and it
was decided that a resolution should
be drawn up on the subject and copy
be sent to this States representatives
in congress and the senate, and a COPY
to the local press. The resolution re-
commends the reorganization and re-
construction of the crop estimate ju-
reau in order that the farmers of the
country will receive reports of more
correct nature. Mr.. Donaldson showed
the inaccuracy OF some Of these gov
ernment reports ly stating that the
bureau estimated the potato crop in
Idaho this year would be 4,1S0,000
more bushels than that Of last year
He stated this was not The case and
the crop this year showed a deficien-
cy over that of last year and not all
excess.
He further stated that the farm
ers in all sections Of the country were
exploited by means Of these inaCcur-
ate reports and that due to the re-
ports on many occasions they have
sold their supplies when they should
have held on to them. Mr.. Donaldson
estimated that $4,0OO,0OO were lost by
The farmers in this country this year

crop reports. -Pocatello Tribune.
