HOLDING HOGS FOR SHIPMENT

Washington, ID. ca loss of live
weight of hogs and waste of feed re
suit from the practice of purchasing
local hogs in small lots and holding
them in local stockyards until car
load shipment is collected, according
TO specialists of the United States
Bureau of Markets, They point out
that at this and other seasons. when
runs are light it often takes local
buyers four or five days to assemble
enough small lots for a carload As
facilities for feed and watering are
inferior in small yards, the hogs
make no further gains on their feed
and often suffer actual loss of live
weight Local abuyers, therefore
would DO we'll 10 specify certain
day for the delivery of lots from the
various farms and load and ship
without holding. Farmers also could
club together to make up cooper
ative carload shipments on regular
week days. thus saving the margin
lost in individual small lot selling.

WARM WATER SAVES FEED

Warm drinking water for the
dairy stock will save feed and also
benefit the milk flow. 1t saves feed
because it does not draw on the vital
ity of the COW as does cold water.
1t benefits the milk flow because "A
COW will not reach her maximum
production unless she drinks water
abundantly. This she will not do if
il is ice cold.

MARKETING COTTAGE CHEESE

The utilization of skim milk BY
making it into cottage cheese and
using the cheese as a substitute fol
meat has been urged jointly by the
L. s. Food Administration and the
Department of Agriculture. Ordinary
pasteboard oyster pals make sery
iceable containers for marketing cot

IN AVN ~ V
Prominent Short Zine Offfeials Here
for Regular "Safety
First" Meeting

The regular safety first meeting
was held in Blackfoot Saturday aft
ernoon in the Isis theatre. About
twenty-five railroad men were in at

central safety committee were the
principal speakers The subject o1

railroad company, the meeting was
very successful. These safety first
meetings are held every month, and
previous to last Saturdays meeting
they have been held in Pocatello. II
was decided by the committee, how
ever, that it would be an excellent
thing to hold the meetings in the
various towns along the line, SO from
now on the meetings will be held
in different places.
The safety first committee endeav-
ors to impress the thought ot

FIRE AT ABERDEEN

Last Tuesday evening the Second
Mennonite church, four miles south
west of Aberdeen, was burned to the
ground, creating loss of $4,000 to
$500.
The fire was discovered about 6
O'Clock just after the workmen, who
were remodeling the building, had
left. The flames had already gained
great headway and in the absence OF
fire fighting apparatus nothing could
be done to save the church from en-
tire destruction.
The loss caused by the fire was
partially covered by an insurance
policy of $250O. The church build
ing will probably be rebuilt at once
The cause of the fire is unknown
but it is thought the flames may
have started from a neglected ciga.
rette stub or lighted match thrown
upon the floor.

BIACKFOOT BALL FANS GET
NEWS HOT OFF THE WIRE

The Club cigar store has been a
popular place for the baseball fans
of Blackfoot during the Chicago-New
York worlds series baseball games.
A popular subscription provided
funds for the installation of direct
wire, and Operator Brown of the
Western Union received the report of
the games play by play, which were
then posted on a bulletin board.
Owing to the difference in time the
report of the games started early,
the reports from Chicago beginning
about / O'Clock, while news of the
games played in New York reached
here an hour earlier. The fans here
displayed a keen interest in the SER
les and each day big crowd waited
for the report of the, games.

CAMPAIGN STARTS FOR
SALE OF LIBERTY BONDS
"You Come Across or the Germans Wilp--Bing'
ham County Citizens Must Respond 10y
ally to Countrys Call.

Final plans for the Bingham coun-
ty Liberty loan drive will be complet-
ed tonight at a meeting called by
County Chairman L. r. Thomas,
and tomorrow morning the campaign
will be on in full swing. Bingham
county's share in the states quota
of $780, 900 is $270,000, and to
raise this amount the committee
realizes that it will take some very
strenuous effort. However, the COM
mittee members have every con-
fidence in the loyalty and patriotism
of the citizens of Bingham county,
and they believe that as soon as the
people are made acquainted with the
importance of subscribing to the
Liberty loan they will respond lib
orally.
At tonight's meeting committees
for each precinct in the county are
to be named and all details for the
campaign mapped out.
The campaign will last for eleven
days, and the subscriptions will have
to average over $24,500 each day
for the eleven days in order to reach
the required amount. 1t is the plan
to have speakers visit every precinct
in the county to hold meetings in
the interest of the Liberty loan, and
everyone will be given chance to
buy. Subscriptions to the second
loan must be made thru some bank,
and any one who wishes to buy a
bond can make application thru any
bank or banker. Bonds can be puf-
chased in this manner on easy terms
of payment.
The committee urges every one to
help in this patriotic campaign-"to
buy bond to beat the kaiser"

MRS. TREGO is RECOVERING
from SUCCESSFUL OPERATION

Mrs. Byrd Trego is in st. Marks
hospital at Salt Lake mending from
an operation that was undertaken to
regain her health. which has been
failing for eight or ten years. At
last reports she was holding her own,
with good prospect Of recovery.
Mrs. Trego went to Salt Lake last
Monday for an examination by DR..
Behle and his diagnosis indicated
that she had an infiamed appendix
and two or more hard fibrous
tumors pressing on the organs and
large nerves of the lower abdomen,
and that a hard surgical operation
would restore her health if she could
recover from the operation.
When the question was laid before
her for decision she concluded to
take the chance and in five minutes
engagements had been completed for
the time, place, surgeons, nurse and
q room in the hospital.
She was on the operating table for
two hours, the use of the instru-
ments lasting an hour and forty
minutes. The operating was done by
DR.. August Behle assisted by DR..
Woolsey. 1t was feared that hea't
action might fail under the aDes-
thetic, and when the wound was be-
ing closed and the use of ether ceas-
ed, quart of salt water was inject
ed into the tissues over the lungs
to stimulate circulation. Her return
to consciousness was not accom-
panied by any struggle, nor scarcely
any vomiting, so that her slight
strength was preserved.
The condition described by DR..
Behle in his diagnosis proved cor
rect in every respect. Mr. Trego is
still at Salt Lake.
