THE COMING MUSIC FESTIVAL

The coming musical festival in
which every part of the county is to
he represented by the best musical
talent. both vocal and instrumental,
is unique in character. 1t is to be the
first thing on such a wide scale under
taken here in the nature of a musical
program. The fact that it is to be
made up wholly of home talent will
add to the popular interest.
Aside from the delightful enjoyment
which it will afford the community, it
is in itself a splendid demonstration
Of what leadership and cooperation
can do. Leadership alone is not the
secret of it's success, valuable as is
leadership. One of the finest things
IN this world is cooperation, whether
it be in the great affairs of national
or international life or in the smaller
affairs of community life. By it the
wheels of progress are made to go for
ward in every line of community ac
tivity. While we would pluck no
laurel from the crown of him who
originated the plans for such a con
cert and trained those who participate
in it, we believe a very great deal OF
credit is due also to the willingness
of so many to join in such a splendid
effort.
Still another feature should be noted
IS of real value, and that is the devel-
opment of a general discriminating in
forest in music. No one thing, per
haps, makes more surely for the ele-
walton and refinement of a commu-
nifty than hat which cur interes;
in music and promotes its study and
practice. And 1t is as an advanced
step in this direction that the ap-

is hat of building. And there are
many men living in Twin Falls who
follow this trade in the town, in the
surrounding country and in other
nearby towns. But building opera
tions cannot last all winter and these
men find it difficult, as do the ranch
men, to find work in other trades to
tide them I'VE until spring when they
can go back to their regular trade.
Such a condition makes it very easy
for a large number of these men and
their families to fall into poverty, at
least temporary want. We do not say
that it is a direct of poverty. We
do not think it is a cause. Wages are
high in every trade, much higher than
ever before. Wages have probably
kept pace with increased cost in liv-
ing. The causes of poverty are deep
CT. One of the great American evils
is wastefulness. 1t has been well said
that we waste as much as is required
by a family of the same size in other
countries to live upon. Many foreign
ers put us to shame in their economy
and thrift. A strange fact in human
nature is that many a man who faces
poverty will live all summer long en-
Joying the same luxuries as his neigh
boz who has a good home of his w
and a nice sum to his credit in the
bank. And yet these are the people
who make up by far the larger number
of those whom our associated charities
must help again and again every win
ter. Now it seems to us that with a
greater scarcity of foodstuffs. increas-
ed prices for almost every class Of
goods, the difficulty in finding regu-
lar employment the y~ear-around, it is
a time to call a halt on many of the
so-called luxuries in the interest of
necessities next winter.

Carrie Sherman Fulford died at the
Murphy hospital Friday evening of
last week, following a brief Illness.
Carrie was born in November of the
year 1898. She came to the Bull coun-
try with her parents about ten years
ago and was a pioneer of the tract
and here she grew to womanhood. On
last December 2, she was married to
Ed. Fulford. She has many friends
who mourn her loss. The funeral was
held at the Presbyterian church Mon
day afternoon, conducted by Rev. p. E.
Bartlett, and burial was made in the

Northside Farmers
Sue the Water Co.
Attempted Cut of Water Results in
Starting Litigation on Question
Claim SOuthside Gets Too Much.

The settlers of this tract have held
several meetings at different points
this week and as a result have filed a
suit against the Twin Falls North Side
Land & Water Co, to determine just
what their rights are, says the Hazel
ton West End News. They have en-
ployed two lawyers of Twin Falls, j..
II. Wise and Mr.. Lyons to handle their
case for them.
The suit is the result of a 10 per
cent water cut levied by the water
company OF the farmers of this tract.
Under this contract the farmers are
ntitled to 1-S0 of a second foot per
acre, and they want to know whether
this amount is to be delivered at the
weir or whether it is to be delivered
at the Miner dam.
II. E. Shepherd, of Jerome, general
manager of the water company, was
here Monday and in conversation with
the News reporter, stated that the wa
ter has already been decreed by the
court for this segregation and under
that decree this tract is entitled to 400
second feet, south side 5000 feet and
the second segregation $500 fet. The
south side have been taking, for the
past week, all the way from 400 to 700
feet more water than their decree
calls for and this is the cause of the
shortage of water on this side of the
the river. Under the court order the
south side has charge of the head
gates at Miner and this side has to
take whatever they see fit to give us.
However, under the court order, the
state engineer can, if necessary, take
charge of the measuring for both sides
and Mr.. Shepherd took the matter up
with the state engineer and the state
now has a man at Miner in charge
OF the head gates.

THE HIGHWAY TO POVERTY

In a community such as ours with
opportunities for regular work for the
lsboring man below those of a manu-
featuring town. there is bound TO be
more or less poverty during the long
winter months. When the crops are
all in in the fall there is little regular
work for many who find little OF no
through the spring and summer. The
consequence is that many come into
town for the winter. And every one
knows hat there are certain lines of
work in the city upon which many
arc dependent for their daily living
and which are practically at a stand
still through the winter. Such a trade

"HOUSE CHICKENS WELL
is ADVISE OF EXPERT


There are two systems in common
use for housing chickens. The one is
the colony system in which the fowls
are kept in small houses which can be
moved from place to place over the
farm and thus utilize much of the
waste products of the farm, SAYS By
ron Adler i'll the u. A. c.. News Let
ter. The other is the continuous or
permanent system in which the houses
are usually larger and not movable
ana a certain plot of ground is used
for the runs.
The colony system is especially
adapted for general farm conditions
or extensive poultry raising and can
not be successfully used in a city lot
or on limited areas. The advantages
OF the colony system are more free
range cheaper feeds, little or no ex-
pense in fencing, less attention to
cleaning and sanitary conditions, and
little need of regular supplies of ami
mai or green feeds during the summer.
Inc cost of labor is greater. as CON
siderable time is required in going
from house to house to feed, water,
and gather eggs. Fewer fowls a be
Kept on the same lot of ground. and
the cost of housing per bird is a little
higher.
If possible the house should be To-
Gated on an elevation so that there is
a natural surface drainage away from
the house, as damp ground means
cold ground. A sandy or gravelly
loan is best and more easily kept in a
sanitary condition than the clay soils.
On a well drained soil with a south
exposure floors are not necessary in
the building. If these conditions are
not available, the ground in and
around the building should be made
dry by thorough u-nderdrainage. ANY
soil that will not support plant life
is not good for poultry.
In many of the various types of
houses that are in common use there
are a number of factors that are i'm
portant. The open or curtain front
house may be adapted t. almost any
climate. This open front has a num-
Der of advantages. Dryness and
fresh air without draughts are most
essential to healthful fowls. In omen
front house facing the south the max
imum amount of sunlight is admitted
which keeps the interior dry. If the
other three sides of the house are
Tree from cracks or openings, ii will
not be draughty, yet will allow a grad
ual diffusion of fresh pure air at all
times. These open front houses
should be equipped with a muslin
curtain tackled on a hinged frame, so
that it can be lowered over the OPEN
ing during the winter, on stormy DAYS
anG coolest nights. Cold pure air is
better than warm impure air, yet it
must be kept in mind that it is the
fresh air that is desired and not the
low temperature.
All nests and platforms for feed
hoppers and water vessels should be
up off the floor eighteen inches and
two feet so as to give the fowls all
the floor space for scratching. These
as well as the perches, dropping
boards and all other internal fixtures
should be removable so that they can

The uniting of all the factions in
a vote of confidence in Kerensky, the
fighting Russian Premier, whereby
the latter was induced to recall his
resignation is a somewhat cheering
note amid the chorus of discord that
Ome from that distracted country.
That such a man as Kerensky has
shown himself to be should be hailed
as his country's savior by political
factions bitterly opposed in all else,
is certainly encouraging. The evolu-
ton of any country from autocracy
to democracy-and especially of one
where ignorance and superstition pre-
walls as here's a vast work, involv-
ing time, labor and, usually, blood
shed. The progress of Russia thus
far is only surprising in that COM

not yet prevailed.

STILL TIME TO sow BARLEY.
Crop Improvement Service

The seeding time of barley should
be done later than that of oats or
spring wheat, as al early spring frost
is more detrimental to young barley
than to other small cereals. The sea-
son is usually a week later. In Canada
barley is sown up into June, but THAI
is not advocated in this country. Still,
the second or third week in May will
probably be safe this year.
A drill or broadcast seeder is COM
monty used and the barley is sown
at the rate of ~ to 2 bushels to the
acre. Where it is desirable to seed the
land down to clover and timothy, I to
liz bushels of seed barley as a nurse,
crop is sufficient.

All seed barley should be tested for

Many OF our farmers will not have
money enough to put in a maximum

course, during this war excitement 1t
is pretty hard to get onyone to do any,
thing but run around in circles, but
the greatest business problem we
have is to finance our farmers SO that
they can get the maximum results for
themselves and for our community.
We believe that If the banks will ask
young farmers and tenants who have
not established their credit, to make
a statement regarding what they want
to- do with the money, that they will
take very little risk in advancing
whatever money any farmer will in.

1t Is true that the federal reserve
banks will re-discount farmers paper,
but they do it entirely on the credit
of the bank asking for the r~e-discount.
We believe that our business men
would be very glad to pro.rate any
loss that any bank would make in ex-
tending loans to any farmer who
wants to increase the production of
his farm " though his land may be
mortgaged all that it can stand.
Especially in those counties where

little risk because the world is short
