BEAR LAKE TAKES OVER
800, 900 IN LIBERTY LOAN

Bear Lake eounty's total subscrip-
tion to the second Liberty loan was
$S3, 400. This is exclusive of tho
amounts subscribed by the Short Line
employees. the Phoenix Con-
struction, and other corporations do
ing business in the county. We haven't
been able to ascertain the amounts
subscribed by these parties, but bo,
Iieve 1t is SUFFICIENT to run the grand
total close up to Sl45.OOO. the
amount Bear Lake county was asked
to subscribe.
However. the county will not re-
ceives credit from the state committee
for the subscriptions made by the
railroad men and the corporations.
We feel that the showing made by
the county is very good. considering
that there are no milllonaires or
near millionaires in the county and
very few men who can be termed
wealthy. Then. too. many OF the
farmers have not yet marketed their
wheat, hay or potatoes and were not
prepared just at this time to subscribe
for bonds. Had the loan campaigr
been = month later We are satisfied
the total subscription would have
been several thousand dollars larger
than It 10.
The largest single subscription wa,
that OF the First National hank soi
$4,000. Tim Kenney. president d
the bank, included In his subscrip
tions $1,000 to be credited TO thiI
county. There was one subscription
for $4,000. one for $500. severa
for $1,000 and $500 each, while thu
balance were In sums ranging from
$50 10 $500. There we're probabl,
close to 400 subscribers TO the LOAF
in the county.

THE PASSING or
JULIUS JACOBSEN

In speaking OF the death OF Julius
Jacobsen, which occurred at his home
in cokeviIle, on October ;. the Regis
ter OF that place says:
..Mr. Jacobsen was born in Norway,
{ IN the city OF Kristinia. in the year
1858, and was thirty years old when
he immigrated to America and took
up his residence IN Cokeville. which
proved to be permanent.
..Mr. Jacobsen was one OF the very
few OF the old settlers remaining, one
OF the last connecting links between
the past and the present. one who had
helped 60 make this great western
country , desirable place in which TO
live The passing OF Dir. Jacobsen is
another mile-post in the many chang
es which have been constantly COINS
on since the white mar first set foot
In this country. Generations will
come and go. and many may look
back upon the early history of wy
oming, and OF the men who were the

such supply when down to 16 days

by the State Fuel Administrator for
the whole or part of the state when
ever circumstances warrant such &C
tion.
Coal Needs. for the State.
The fuel administrator il now en-
deavoring to reach an accurate esti-
mate of the fuel needs Of the state for
the fuel year ending April 80. 1918.
At present this is a matter OF guess
work. but during the coming week it
is expected that reasonably accurate
figures will have been secured.
That the present needs OF the state
are very great is clearly evidenced by
the facts and figures so far at hand.
1t has been learned through the Pub
Iic Utilities Commission and from
other sources that during the fuel
year ending May 1. 1917. there was
shipped into Southern Idaho, to points
on the Oregon Short Line the gross
amount from Utah and Wyoming OF
453.75O tons. Counting this as two
thirds OF the state. and the total ship
ments In Idaho during this period
were $50, ,625 tons.
During the first ave months of the
present fuel year there was shipped
from the Utah and Wyoming mines to
points along the Oregon Short Line q
gross tonnage Of 225.OO0 tons. IN
the entire state It is estimated that
the total shipments in the five months
were s3s.5OO tons.
IL is also estimated that the re.
iquirements this year will be greater
than last by 80 per cent. This would
make the total needs OF the state fol
the year ending May 1, 1918. SaS.
900 tons, and the present needs, aftel
October l, 1917. 647.5OO tons. OF thli
total need OF the state, 1t is presUmet
that about flve-sixths will come from
the Utah and Wyoming mines, AM
the remainder from the Roslyn mine
in Washington and from the Crow
Nest region in Canada.
i Coal Priority Demanded.
One OF the most important effort
that is being made by the Fuel Ad
ministrators for the Northwest an,
Pacific Coast States conference. Is L
: secure from the priority board OF tn
National Defense Council an order de
cIaring q priority 10 the supplying
and movement OF cars for coal distrih
, ution. This order when given Ii de
signed to take precedence In car SUP
/ ply and shipments over all classes @
! freights except perishable goods, GOV
, ernment war material shipments an
, absolute necessities.
} Word has been received from Fed
eral Administrator Garfield that tn
matter Is being worked out as rapid
{ as possible, and that cars have 4
. ready been sent from Eastern point
: to the Utah and Wyoming mines TO b
a used exclusively for coal shipment
; to the states In this conference.

= First Orders Determined On.
At q meeting OF the Advisory boar6
the first orders in connection with thu
coal supply were determined on b.
unanimous vote OF the committee
These have been issued by Fuel Ad
ministrator GoOding and have beer
sent to the coal dealers Throughout
the state. The first and more impor
tant OF these flxes the price whicl
may be charged for coal in this stat
to the consumer. The retail dealer 4
allowed . gross margin OF $500
ton. This charge is TO include a eharg
of seventy-five cents a ton for Wagoi
delivery. Gross margin II defined a
that amount charged over the cost o
coal at the mine mouth and the trans
portation charge by the railroad, an
in addition the charge for deliver
where the Arm is located at som
point away from the the railroad.
The gross margin was fixed a
$500 q ton after the committee ha
worked over the returns from a Iarg
number of places I'm all parts OF tn
state. The effort has been made t
strike q fair average. and It il b.
Meved this has been DONE

Why q County Agent?
Boys' and Girls Work

This is the sixth and last OF the
series Of articles on the county
agent and his work by J. r. How
ard, president Of the temporary or K
ganization that 10 behind the move
ment to employ an agent.--Ed.1
/ have omitted mention Of one of
the best lines Of county agent work. 1t
Is that connected with the boys and
girls club work. II our boys and girls
are to mako better farmers and house.
wives and better men and women than
their fathers and mothers, they must
be started early in life. II they are to
be kept on the farms they must be
shielded from the lure or the city. The
best shield Ia the wholesome lure of
farm life, instilled by a VITAL healthful
interest in farm improvement, aided by
personal profit.
To meet this end the state and coun-
ty baby beef clubs and pig clubs and
acre corn contests, gardening, and do
nestle science clubs have been organ
lied. These have proved wonderfully
Interesting and profitable. But 1t re-
quires some organization to establish
them and keep them going. This has
been done very successfully in the
counties having agents. Last fall, aft
er the Henry county contest, Mr.. Fish,
the county agent, arranged for the as
sembling Of the baby beeves in the
county and shipped them to market, to-
gether which netted the boys several
dollars each more than they otherwise
would have received.
In conclusion, let me say that human
nature makes 1t easier to be knocker
than a booster. Therefore the county
agents must be good thing, for the
knockers are mighty few In the counties
which have agents. All day today l
have ridden thru the rice farming coun-,
try, watching the teams in the fields
blowing and sowing. They have coun
the testimony is the same as in Iowa
and Indiana, Missouri, Nebraska,
Idaho and Washington.
Marshall county will certainly have
county agent. Who he is to be or what
particular line Of work he will take up
is, OF course, unknown. The commit
tee feels that II 400 farmers join in the
movement the success will be greater
than with fewer. So we ask every
farmer or farm owner In the county to
join the movement. The cost will be
small in proportion to the gain. Also
plan to be present at the farmers meet
ing at the court house Saturday, Feb
"a, at I o'clock. Good speakers will be
present, one OF which will be real live
county agent.
We also ask every man whose name
is on the list to have in mind nine OF
the best farmers in the county for d.
.ectors. One. at least. should be draft
horse man, beef cattle man, one a
successful hog man, a soil man. clover
crank, a sheep breeder, and school
worker-all would work In well.
Remember, too. that when the coun-
ty agent begins his work that he will
not butt" in on your personal affairs,
or tell you what to do or how or when
to do 1t, unless you ask him. He will,
however, help you In every possible
way and get the rest of us reused UP
to help you. and get you to help the
rest OF US. Remember it is co-opera-
ton that wins the game.

count Of 10 to g.
Boardman, Of Marshalltown, and
Green, Of Leander Clark, played the
best basketball. altho the members OF
both teams showed tight and dash to
the end.
The Independents made much bet
