NOTED BULL Will
REPRODUCE KIND

Records of increasing high butter
fat production in the Holstein breed,
are so common today as to excite
little comment except to those person
ally interested. It is not Unusual for
a breeder to buy bull or cow, of
comparatively common (though thor
oughbred) origin, whose value may be
multiplied many times in few years,
by the increased production of the i'm
mediate relatives, or progeny, Of his
or her ancestors.
An instance of this kind may be
cited in connection with the young
bull, Sir Veeman Wayne Homestead,
purchased last spring from the Arden
Farms, Minneapolis, Mimi, by Dam
sire Of this bull, Oak de Kol Ollie
Grand Champion at the National
Dairy Show, 1916, won Senior and
Grand Champion at the Waterloo Cat
tie congress recently. His son, iPebe
Laura Ollie Homestead King, (the sire
of the Damsite bully was returned
Grand Champion at the Iowa state fair
this year, and also took 3rd at the
Dairy Cattle congress, under the
strongest COnpeI1ClOI. ne Was DedLe1l
here only by his noted sire, Oak de Kol
Ollie Homestead, who won the blue,
and by Sire Dietertje Ornsby Mer-
cedes, 18th, who took End.
However, in the language of the
reporter of the "Black and White
Record" Third place was won by
Piebe Laura Ollie Homestead King, a
four year-old son of the winner, Oak
de Kol Ollie Homestead, who, if given
two years more to deepen and finish
his massive frame, would probably
beat both Of those now placed above
him. "
The dam of Piebe Laura Ollie
Homestead King was the noted Wis
consin Bess Piebe Laura, 20 lb.
COW, which has a 81 lb. daughter, and
81 lb. sister, and for which Arden
Farm paid over $4,000 several years
ago.
It is only reasonable to hope and
expect that the offspring of this we'll
bred youngster (Sir- Veeman Wayne
Homestead) when crossed upon the
daughters Of Lucy Spoford Lad, the
Damsite senior sire, which is an ami
NAL of wonderful individuality and
great transmitting power, will become
the nucleus of a useful and profitable
herd.

There are a great many risks

If you have the money for

national conservation of

NATIONAL conservation of
the natural resources of the
country, embodied in legisla-
ton during the past twenty
years, is still a wise policy,
Notwithstanding commercial
and industrial interests may
think themselves hampered
and hindered. 1t is true that
speedy utilization of the water
power of the country for
electricity would be beneficial,
but IT can be secured as we'll
by lease from the government
as by passing the power sites
absolutely over to the owner
ship of private combinations
of capital. Europe has shown
how wise walton can
maintain forests unimpaired
Tor centuries, while there are
examples enough in the east
ern and middle states of our
country of how forests can be
quickly and absolutely de
stroyed under private exploit
alton that seeks swift returns
regardless of the needs of
posterity. Our national forest
system, which serves all and
gives all a share in the
revenues, should never be
abandoned.

Blame Is Safer Than Praise.
Emerson.

The statement, Blame is safer
than praise, may seem hard to
believe at first thot, but a deeper
insight convinces one of its truth.
1t seems to be natural for one to
feel hurt when blamed for a mistake,
and often person beginning a
career in public life is crushed and
forced to give up because he is
blamed for an error that he has COM
mitted. But one is unwise to allow
himself to be affected in this way by
blame, whether just or unjust. If he
deserves it, he should profit by it,
and should correct his actions in the
future, thus turning the criticism into
benefit. If one is blamed unjustly,
he can rejoice in his ability to do the
right and wise thing. He ought to
be above the weakness of being dis
couraged.
On the other hand, whether a per-
son is praised deservedly or not, it is
hindrance to his progress in life.
For instance, if a man does some
thing of which he is proud and his
friends praise him lavishly, he is apt
to be satisfied with himself, and so
loses ambition to improve.
Consider also a child in the years
in which his character is forming. il
he does a thing fairly well, and is
told he has done very well, he
acquires the wrong idea of very
well. So he is content to dc
things in the very well" way, while
if he were praised moderately, and
encouraged to do better, he would
be benefited much more.
Therefore man in public or pri-
vate life should not shrink from
blame, but should make wise use oil
it for the improvement Of his char
acter. Praise should not be truste
too much.

PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

The British forces In the Ancre
region in France report an advance of
two miles along an ll-mile front to-
ward the German stronghold at
Bapaume. 10 Messopotamia, the
British army advancing up the Tigress
toward Bagdad has retaken the
strategic position at kutel- mara.
This place was taken by the Turks %
April, 1916, after siege of months.
Greatest interest still attaches to
the developments in the submarine
campaign. Numb rs of British and
neutral merchant ships are still being
sunk. Seven Dutch ships with valu
able cargoes, were torpedoed In one
day One OF the largest ships sunk
recently was the $4,000 ton Cunard
liner Laconia (British) bound from
New York to Liverpool, Feb. H.
carried 78 passengers including six
American citizens. Two of the latter,
Mrs. Hoy and daughter, returning TO
their English home after a visit in
America, were drowned when the
lifeboat in which they put off from
the ship was swanped. The Laconia
was armed and carried mixed cargo
of cotton, foodstuffs and war mater
ials.
Whether or not the Laconia Incl.
dent furnishes grounds for the United
States to enter the war against
Germany is now being debated in
this country.
On Feb. 26. President Wilson went
before congress and asked for author
ity to use the forces of the United
States to protect American lives and
commerce against the German sub
marine menace.

Legislators Busy People.

(Kootenai Valley Times. J

II one will stop to consider the
thousands of new laws that are being
created this spring he will wonder
how the individual is going to get
by without infringing on some Of
them. Ignorance of the law excuses
no one, is an old axiom. 1t might
have been a good one at time when
laws we're in such small numbers
that one could spend the time to
comprehend them. But with the
multiplicity of laws and the constant
ly changing verbiage of those that
are on the statute books the individ-
ual would need to have a lawyer at
his elbow every minute of the day to
be reasonably certain that he was not
infringing on some legal statute.
The question Of economy is one
reason for rushing of legislation. A
Legislature must not exceed certain
limits of expense or it is characterized
as Doodle" gathering A hundred
men, without regard to their special
fitness for promulgating laws, or for
their knowledge of conditions which
should govern other than in their
own small sphere of individual envir-
onment are thrown together and told
to go to work and make laws, and
they do it. Is it any wonder that
freak legislation appears? Is it any
wonder that really wise and desirable
bills are killed. 1t is surprising that
SO many laws that are really valuable
to the commonwealth get through.
Idaho is no exceptions If one will
follow the reports of the action of
the legislature he will learn that there
i is an earnest, active effort to get the
BEST But can it be done under the
system which we employ? The
movement for smaller legislative
bodies, at least for the states, is be-
coming an interesting topic Of
thought and discussion among the
people. 1t will ultimately triumph.
And then the codihcation of existing
laws and the elimination of duplicate
and conflicting provisions will be the
biggest labor of the body. Law
should be SO worded that an ordinary
man can understand it, and SO terse
that he will not need to spend life
time to familarize himself with it.
Then there will be some justice in
the statement, Ignorance of the law
excuses no one"

The Modern Farmer and Power

The farmer imagines power and
place are fine things,n says Emerson,
but since Einerson's time the farm
er has radically changed his views of
life. Especially is this true of the young
farmer. More and more the farmer
is realizing the fact that he has a
pretty good occupation, one which he
ca q depend upon for living, one
which gives him an opportunity to
live in the highest meaning of the
word.
He realizes that money cannot be
his TO the extent that it can to some
people, but that he will be as
well off financially as the average
person. He enjoys new conveniences
and social functions which the farmer
