Demands $1,000 For
Loss Of Right Eye

One thousand dollars is the sum
William Sunderland Mott asks of the
American Bankers Insurance for the
loss of the sight of his right eye, which
he asserted he lost while riding bi-
cycle in heavy wind. The action is to
tcompel the insurance company to pay
the amount of the insurance policy.
Mr. Mott declares that he was rid

when an exceptionally strong gust
threatened to 0verturn him and he
gripped the handle bars hard and put
his feet forcibly on the pedals so that

A CHALLENGE FROM IDAHO

Golfers printed an editorial head
ed Getting Your Town Ready" R.
B. Corcoran of Chloride, Arizona,
comes back with a letter which in
cludes this:
81 should like to call your atten-
ton to the town of Harrison, Idaho.
By the census of 1910 Harrison had
population of $50. Since the sew
erance of diplomatic relations with
Germany she has sent ten boys to the
navy, and, to quote the local paper,
The Searchlight,, several more will
follow when school is out What
other town Of equl size can show so
good a record?'
1t is a record to be proud of. There
is inspiration in the thought that the
boys of farmland towns in Idaho,
in Montana, in Kansas, will, under
the flag of Perry, Decatur, Farragut
and Dewey, help to carry on the
worlds work in sweeping from the
ocean and from history the pirates
of the twentieth century-as, a CEN
tury ago, their ancestors, freed the
Mediterranean sea and the Barbary
corsairs. They have enlisted in the
navy in a glorious hour, these boys

Bingham Farmers Say
This Is Record Season

A large number of farmers Of
Bingham county and business men of
Blackfoot met Monday evening at
the Court House to discuss what
ways should be best to get the most
out Of the ground this year. The
meeting was called for Tuesday even
ing by mistake and Mr.. Alfred, who
was announced as principal speaker,
was unexpectedly called home to the
bedside of his daughter, in a critical
illness. G. l.. Braley, who was ap-
pointed by the governor to assist Mr..
Alfred, took charge of the meeting.
Reports from the different sections
of the county showed the greatest
need to be that of farm help. Only
a few reported being in need of seed,
grain, potatoes and feed. As a whole
the county was shown to be in good
shape, with promise of producing the
largest crop yet, given fair season.
Committees were appointed to go
to the bankers and seek to make ar
rangcments for extending credit to
those farmers who may need seed
and horse feed.

Mexican Shop
Lifers Caught
At the Depot

Two Mexicans were arrested by
Sheriff Simmons and Deputy Thomp-
son, Thursday morning, charged with
stealing clothes and shoes. Several
Blackfoot merchants identified
articles found in possession of the
two, and others remembered waiting
on them Wednesday. The men are
slight Of stature, and very swarthy.
Their method was for one to buy
some little article such as shoe laces,
or a handkerchief. while the other
wandered out of sight and picked up
what he could. While Deputy Thomp-
son was rounding up one of them at
the depot, the other went back into
the toilet room and threw away a
pair of shoes Sheriff Simmons was
right behind him, picked up the
shoes, and arrested him. The two
will be held for trial, and all the
goods identified If possible.
The sheriffs were asked to arrest
a man coming down on the Mackay
train Wednesday. Deputy Thompson
was accordingly on the train, when
the man jumped off outside of Black
fot and followed him. Feeling the
hand of arrest on his shoulder, the
man reached down into his pocket
and threw as far as he could hand
full of gold and silver coins. 1t de-
veloped that he had gotten the worst
Of a game of chance and ran off with
a rattle prize box to get even. He
was released for lack of prosecution
expressing a firm determination to
enlist in the army.

First American Forces
Ordered to Europe

The war department issued orders
Monday for the raising Of the first
American force to be sent to the
battlefields in France. 1t will be
composed entirely of engineers, and
nine additional regiments are to be
raised to supplement regular engin-
eer corps.
1t Is declared that the $4,000 men
to compose these nine regiments will
be recruited exclusively from the
ranks of highly trained railway men.
They will be volunteers, whose en-
listment is authorized in the national
defense act. No inkling of the route
they will take or the time of depar-
ture will be allowed to be published
until it is safe to the nations best
interests.
Each regiment will have two bat
talions of three companies each.
Every branch of the railroad service
necessary to the construction of lines
and their operation will be repre-
sented.
Officials believe the great brother
hoods will cooperate with the gov
ernment in raising this force. The
men will be selected from the SER
vice in such a manner as not to Grip
pie the railroads.

Seed club, who have been studying
intensified farming in all phases,
made suggestion to the meeting
that county agent would be able
to give the greatest help to both
farmers and business men.
A county agent, according to their
way Of thinking, would give the
farmers acceptable advice about
crops, and be in a position to furnish
merchants and bankers information
on crop conditions that would be
valuable. He would be a link be-
tween the two, the farmer and the
business man.
A motion was unanimously carried
asking the county commissioners to
employ a county agent at the earliest
possible date. A committee was
chosen to wait upon the commission
ers at their meeting May IA. Mr.
Christensen, member of the board,
was present, and expressed himself
in favor Of the county agent plan.
This meeting was very kindly re-
ported by G. A. Line, secretary of
the Springfield Pure Seed club.

Mrs. G. A. Hoover, who introduced

A TRUE MOTORIST

A real motorist feels duty bound
to pay indemnity for losses when
farm stock gets under the wheels.
Bishop Monson, of Wapello, motored
thru a herd Of swine one day, and
little later was asked to pay for
several pigs which the herder declar-
ed were killed by his automobile.
The bishop remembered that another
car passed him on the road soon aft
er going in the same direction and
somewhat faster. However, to save
alteration, he paid the charges. The
published report Of the incident did
not mention his handing over the
cash, and he felt that the public
might think him a piker. And so
this little paragraph is written in
the hope that Mr.. Monson will be
cleared of any such doubts pointed
his way.
