Urged by delegations representing
a large number of progressive farm
ers and the Bingham County Civic
league, the county issioners
took steps Monday toward securing
the services of an agricultural agent
for the county. H. w. Hochbaum,
state county agent leader, met with
the commissioners to explain the
county agents work and what sort
of cooperation is needed to make
his work successful.
With Mr.. Hochbaum s assistance
committees were drawn up for every
community in the county, who shall
organize local farm bureaus to sup
port the agent and present problems
for solution.
Central Committee
A central executive committee to
bind together the various local
bureaus consists of Joe Nye, of Ba-
salt; E. V. Call, of 'Wapello; D. Will
tamtuh, of Sterling; A. ] Snyder, of
Springfield, chairman; H. K. Willie.
of Springfield, secretary-treasu
Hyrum Hansen, of Gosherg J. E. Kel-
ley, of Shelley; w. G. Sollenberger,
of Blackfoot; F. T. Halverson, of
Riverside.
This committee will try to COM
plete details of organization by May
26, and by the first of June have
ESQ farmers signed up as members
of the farm bureaus to back the coun-
ty agent, Membership will cost 81.
1t Is necessary to have these working
groups to make the agent plan pro-
duce good results.
aas County Chairmen
Bureau leaders in the various COM
munities have been named as fol-
lows: Sterling, I. N. Noyer; Spring
field, G. A. Line; Pingree, w. H.
Scott; Rockford, D. J. Murdock;
Thomas, Forest Bales; Riverside, Jed
Taylor; Moreland (Keever) F. r.

Rose, Louis Felt; Blackfoot, W. C. |
Gregg; Wapello, J. D. Jensen; Wood
Vile, Joseph Bischoff; Jameston, CT
Anderson Basalt, George Davis; Shell
ley, James Holland; Presto, James
Just; Firth, Fred Nielsen; Goshen,
Neils Monson; Wicks, O.. A.. Paul.
Around these chairmen as large a |
number of farmers as possible will
be drawn into organized clubs.
The county agents work, as Mr.
Hochbaum explained, is not so much
to furnish advice and remedies for
as rather to be center
If associated farmers for the ex-
change of ideas from one to another
and to hold them together in working
Tor the good of ALL The farmers

British Welcome American Destroyer
Fleet
It is announced that a squadron
of torpedo boat destroyers under
Rear Admiral William S. Sims are
now securing European waters for
the deadly U-boats, in accordance
with agreements between U. s. naval
officials and the allied powers as to
cooperation on the seas.
A report comes from Queenstown
that the American boats have already
had brush with an enemy undersea
craft. ..... .s
Upon arrival of the American fo-
tilla, Immediately after the British
commander had greeted the Ameri-
can commander and congratulated
him on the safe voyage, he asked
when our vessels could be ready for
business.
1--WE can start at once" was the
American commanders reply. When
the British commander had recovered
from his surprise he made a short
tour of the destroyers and admitted
that they looked prepared.
''Yes,' said the American COM
mander, 1--WE made preparations on
the way over That is why we are
ready"
Some of the sailors were given
shore liberty at Queenstown, and the
people fairly made social lions Of
them. They were the first American
seamen to land in England since hos
tilities were declared against Ger
many. The townspeople piled them
with all good things to eat and held
them captives with their. insistent

Big Liner Escorted
Queenstown-One destroyer began
war duty even before reaching this
side of the Atlantic. This was when
it picked up and escorted thru the
danger zone one of the largest of the
Atlantic liners. This pleased the pas
sengers on board and they sent a mes
sage of appreciation to the command
er of the destroyer The message
reads:
British passengers on board a
steamer bound for a British port
under the protection of an American
destroyer send. their
hearty greetings to her commander
and her officers and crew and desire
to express their keen appreciation of
his practica1 cooperation between
he governments and peoples of the
United States and the British empire,
who are now fighting together for the
freedom of the SEAS"

MATTERS OF MOTORIsM
Inventors Have Scope in Auto Inn
prOvementS

Automobile engineers are working
toward three ideals in motor car de-
sign, according to ]. Edward Schip-
per, member of the Society of Auto
mobile Engineers, as follows:
Better performance is the first.
This means a greater speed range on
high gear, better acceleration, bet
ter economy, longer life. silence, easy
starting and other factors to make
the car vehicle that can be started,
operated and cared for with the least
trouble and expense, and with the
greatest amount of satisfaction to
the user.
More comfort is the second. In
this phase of development is includ
ed everything that makes the car
better vehicle to ride in. Better
spring suspension, upholstery, body
proportions, east of entrance, con-
venience in use in all kinds of
weather and over all kinds Of roads,
convenience in night driving, in
making minor adjustments and re-
pairs, such as tire changing, brake
adjusting, battery filling and even
gasoline and oil replenishment.
Finer appearance is the third.
What this includes is self-evident-
body outline or profile, the finish and
trim of the exterior and the design
and adornment of the interior from
the appearance point of view Under
the heads of performance, comfort
and appearance our observations will
fall; each detail considered will in
the belief of the engineer who adopt
ed it. be small or large step toward
the betterment of one of the three.
If the change has not improHed one
Of these three things it has not been
a gain from the users standpoint,
altho there is another consideration,
and that is better manufacturing pos
sibilities.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1917-05-18

The council denied request to
place an advertising sign on the side
walk in the business district.
Street Cleaner
Purchase of the street vacuum
cleaner at this time was decided
against. The work of the machine
as demonstrated for a week or two
did not come up to the councilmen's
desires. The machine will be stored
in Blackfoot, according to the agent.
Fire Fighting Apparatus
Mr.. Stratford, representative of
the National Harvester company,
asked permission to present for con-
sideration fire fighting equipment.
The matter was put in the hands of
the Improvement committee.
The council ordered that side
walk before G. F. Molden's property
on North University avenue be re-
laid. 1t was the first piece Of side
walk on that street and was out of
line.
Sprinkling Streets
Bids for sprinkling the Blackfoot
streets were received and the street
and alley committee given authority
to select the best teams and put the
men to work.
The Librarian
Communications urging the city
council to provide librarian to take
charge of the public library at $50 a
month were read coming from the
Bingham County Civic league and
the Current Event club. The i'm
provement committee was instructed
to Investigate the matter and present
at the next meet
ing. ..
Members of the Seventh Day Ad-
ventist church obtained the councils
permission to use the city hall for
their Saturday afternoon meetings.
Street Commissioners Salary
The council increased William
Drew's salary from $85 to $50 a
month.
Park improvements
Mr.. Quillin's report ON improve
nents that could we'll be made in the
,ity park including an entrance way,
was received by the council and laid
'ver until next meeting.
F. N Parkinson offered a protest
IN the part of residents in the north

SETTLER BURNED OUT

j. H. Carson, who lives three miles
east of Wapello, suffered a loss by
fire on Tuesday at noon. Three work
horses belonging to Mr.. Carson, a
saddle-horse and saddle of William
Twitchells', two sets of new team
harness and some rings and sleigh
bells and half ton of hay and a
few miscellaneous things besides the
pole and straw stable, were consum-
ed. One Of Mr., Carson's horses broke
his halter and got out with slight
damage.
A high wind was blowing at the
time the fire was discovered and Mr..
Carson had just left the stable a
short time before. He was smoking
a cigarette in the house, but states
that he did not light it until he
reached the house. Mr.. Carson has
no explanation for the origin of the
fire. He, said the rings on the har-
ness were worth $25 and he regretted
their loss keenly.

The reconstruction of the Russian
cabinet is in progress, with the radi-

who are following the trend of events
in the big empire do not feel that the
disorder Is permanent. The Ameri-
can government is offering its assist
ance with unabated willingness in the
form of loan of $100,000,0OO.
Minister of foreign affairs, Paul
Milukoff, resigned his position this
week, and at the same time three
army officers gave up their commits
sions. Milukoff has been slated for
minister of public instruction. His
place will probably be given to Te-
