Sox looked bad individually yester-

that the men did not look to be the

Far from falling down, the men of
both Sox and Browns did exception

Only two bad throws were commit

SOCIAL AFFAIRS

The main facts in the following
we clip from a paper published in
the southern part of the state. 1t
appears that numerous social af-
fairs have been given during the
past semester at the University and
here is an account Of some of them.
The Bury the Hatchet" dance
given by the freshmen the first
week of school served to Introduce
the students to each other. In the
next weeks followed pledge dances
given by the different fraternities
and sororities.
Sunday afternoons were given
over to calling by the fraternities
at the homes of the different groups
of girls.
The athletic ball after the Pull
man game was the only formal
dance of the semester where all the
boys except freshmen donned dress
suits.
The sophomore frolic and senior
puff were formal dances given at
the gymnasium around Thanksgiv-
ing time.
The above is the record that stu
dents of the State University car
ried to their southern homes. 1t
might have been worse and all
ought to be thankful that it was
not.

where he lives for more than half a
century, and during all of that time
pure bred bulls of different breeds
have been used very largely, the use
Of scrubs being only exceptional. Yet
the result is a general lot of scrubs of
all sorts and descriptions that, taken as
whole, are in no respect ahead of
the native cows kept in our boyhood
days.
A few men have adhered strictly to
q single breed and have built u herds,
mostly of grades, that are uniform in
appearance and are profitable and a
credit to their owners, but the general
run are as indicated. The difference
in value is marked as well. At auc-
tons these high grades sell for SIS to
$S5, while cows of no particular breed
sell for $50 to $50.
The hereditary tendency in breeding,
1t is understood is to revert to the
original type, and the original type in
cows was an animal that produced
milk sufficient only to rear the calf to
the age Of six or eight months and
then go dry the rest of the year. By
a long course of wise and careful Sc
lection the various breeds of cows have
been built up from such an animal as
that, and when an attempt is made to
break away from any of these lines of
selection the tendency is a reversion
to that original COW. If any one doubts
this just let him look around at the
nOndescript breed of cows that have
resulted from this manner of crossing
and he will find abundant confirmation
Of this fact.
If man starts out and breeds first
to Holstein, for instance, in order to
gain quantity Of milk, and then to a
Jersey for richness, and then to a
Shorthorn for size and beef qualities,
and then to some other sire because it
is most convenient, as is the thought
in most instances in breeding, the out
come is likely to be lottery, the
character of which nobody can guess.
Such a course of breeding is breaking
into all lines of heredity, any Of which
may crop out, and no sort of uniformi-
ty of form or color or productiveness
may be expected. These are the ideas
generally followed in breeding cows
and the results anybody can see by
simply looking around him.

amount of money and in every pos
sible.
The Governors stand that large
appropriations do not necessarily
precede efficiency is well taken.
The educational institutions will
clamor loudest on the ground of in
creased enrolment but school
that has 20 pupils can very proper
ly double its numbers without addi-
tional expenditure for salary. Un-
til the maximum enrolment per
teacher is reached the same appro.
priation will, in the main, suffice.
We have kept our ear close to
the ground but have heard nothing
unfavorable to the message. The
Governors suggestions and recon-
mendations were timely and show
that he has given the closest atten-
ton to the affairs of his Office, and
from the manner of the man it is
believed that he makes the interest
of the people his own.
Then, too, there is another ele-
ment that seems to enter heartily
into the ideas the Governor holds
relative to the economic affairs of
the state and that is both branches
of the state Legislature. The mi
nority promises to be dignifed in
its attitude and will by no means
be merely obstructionists. At this
writing it looks as though politics
would find cold support among
the law makers. MCGOWAN of La
tab county shows up we'll as minor
ity leader and is on record as not
in sympathy with obstruction tao
tics.
From the Governor down through
the state house and including both
branches of the legislature every
thing looks good and the people
will get pretty near what they are
looking for. The prospect for a
forty day session is very bright and
the expenditures will surely be kept
at the minimum. That good roads
will receive a big boost there can
be no doubt and that is one of the
many things that will not be made
a political party issue. A business
administration is what we are look
ing for and what in all probability
we will get.

Cottonseed Meal For Cows.

Cottonseed meal is one Of the cheap

cows. Only meal that is in good con-
dition should be used in a grain mix
ture. Since the meal itself is very

tonseed meal fed daily should ordina-
rily not exceed three pounds and
should be used as one of several feeds
In a grain mixture. The character OF

CAPITAL CORRESPONDENCE

We heard the Governors message
as it was read to the state Legisla-
ture. 1t was generally understood
that he had something to say and
now even his enemies agree that he
said it well. The Governor has
never posed as an orator neither as
a literary genius. but he found in
Idaho's enough of good, homely
words to make his meaning clear
and his earnestness more than made
up for his lack of elegant diction.
1t was again our privilege to
watch the audience, and the people
there assembled seemed every whit
as earnest as the speaker. The fire.
quent rounds of applause that
greeted him were not given in a
perfunctory manner but with spirit.
His keynote was economy with effic-
lency and with this sentiment his
audience seemed to be in exact ac-
cord.
For two hours and a half the
Governor held his audience without
the loss of a man. He was at no
time prosy and at all times gave
such earnest, forceful expression to
what he was saying that there was
not a dull moment. Of course
many were disappointed because
economy means privations and there
many patriotic citizens standing
ready to help the state expend any

Theda Bara has signed contract
not to appear in public or on any
street, day or night, unless she is
heavily yelled, for three years. We
wonder who will be the first one to
call the Gazette with the informa-

seen on Main Street, and that she
can be interviewed near the post

1t is. great temptation for US to
single out some trivial custom or
affectation of dress, such as the slit
skirt or cosmetics, for the most ex-
travagant condemnation. This
feeling is not confined to the pres
ent generation but history gives us
many examples of the same idea
being held by our forefathers.
Customs that were considered afro
cious a few generations ago are
looked back upon with tolerance
now. When the slit skirt came into
vogue a few years ago it created a
sensation even in New York City.
Today. while it may not be the lat
est style and is not worn to any ex-
tent, it is considered a very COM
monplace affair. There is some
thing in the point of view we take
but the main thing, is to get used
to an idea.

The idea is good one.
We gather from our exchanges that
there is a growing demand for farm
lands all over the state. 1t would
seem also that the law giving bona

as matter of policy the Capital
News should be Democratic. But
it has become a personal organ

Dairy cleanliness demands, first of
all. that the milk be drawn from
the COW with as little dirt in it as
possible. Cows should be regu-

comb and the udder and adjacent

before milking. This procedure
will go far toward clean milk.
