CLUB WOMEN ACTIVE
RED GROSS WORK.

A large number of members of the
M. S. and club met at the home of
Mrs. S. Watkins Wednesday, May %.
A short business session was opened
very impressively by the singing of
America" and the reading of the
pledge of the flag. An interesting
paper on obedience" was read by
Mrs. Butler, and an article on what
the Red Cross is" was also read, the
remainder of the afternoon being de-
voted to sewing for the Red Cross.
Besides the large amount of sew
ing done on this afternoon, ten COM
forts bags are to be made and filled
by the club members.
The M. and S. club covers num-
Der of miles of the garden spot Of
Idaho just north and west of Twin
Falls, and is one of the largest and
most active of the country clubs, and
though busy with home work and do
ing their bit" as rancher's wives can,
they stand ready to do their part in
the great work that is before the
women of America today. A commit
| tee has been appointed to aid in the
work Of food conservation and 1t was
decided to hold the regular club meet
ings but once month during the sum-
mer. A number of guests were pres
ent at this meeting and dainty re-
freshments were served. The next
meeting will be with Mrs. d. Brown

and reduce the cost of living OF our
own, it is of at least equal import
ance to consider also, how we can
make the fullest use of the food stuff
and shall be raised and keep from
spelling such as is perishable.
Our farm advisers tell us, that in
order to increase production we get
better results with less outlay for la
Dor and seed by trying to raise more
bushels rather than to farm more
across. This is very good and timely
advice, for labor and seed are scarce,
and the net result is what counts.
1T is quite a safe bet that Idaho
will do her very best in raising large
crop this year, when everyone seems
to realize that every bit helps and the
east looks to the west as never before.
For the same reason, that we need
more bushels, rather than more acres,
it is most important that such pro-
ducts as have been won from the soil
by hard labor and expense, shall be
saved and preserved until used.
"A shortage of crops has always
been the least trouble of the Idaho
farmers, but until recently marketing
conditions and net results have been
much complained of, for the long dis
lance to market leaves very little
money on low-priced products, after
the freight has been deducted The
lesson therefore is: ship high-priceC
stuff only; concentrate the products

"There is hardly any room for Rrgu-

from the installation of drying plants
of this nature in the potato growing
districts of Idaho. The ONLY question
is: Who is going to do it? IN times
like these, when every one must do his
share, it is not safe to let George do
it,
"There should be installe7 one plant
in the Idaho Falls district one in the
Twin Falls and one in the Deer Flat

caution. The cost of each plant is less
than $4,000.

confident, they will pay we'll"

TWIN FALLS DEFEATED
IN TEN INNING GAME
Hard Fought Game Sunday Goes to
jerome, , to Was Pitchers Bat
tie From Start

Notwithstanding the fact that the
big boy from California made good
account of himself in his first game
with Twin Falls, Jerome succeeded
in annexing the contest between Twin
Falls and Jerome at the latter place
Sunday.
Isl" Cunningham, who had just ar
rived from California in response to
a telegram sent earlier in the week
by Captain Christian of the Twin
Falls club, was pitted against McGin-
mis- and the two mound artists battled
with each other for the full ten in
nings. The game was a pitchers
contest from start to finish and it
was only the healthy swing of a Je-
rome batter in the tenth that sent
Twin Falls back at the short end of
the score.
The game as a whole was featured
by fast snappy playing on the part
of both teams, and was witnessed by
large and enthusiastic crowd. II
the same performance is repeated this
coming Sunday on the local grounds
by the same teams good game is as
sured all those who turn out.
Tomorrow the team journeys tC
Burley for a return game with that
club and plans are practically COM

ment, to appear for registration on

selves for registration at the time ap-
pointed will be arrested, under the
provision of the above act, without
further notice. No county in the state
of Idaho has responded more freely In
the enlistment of the State Militia
than Twin Falls County and we have
the banner so far. Let's keep 1t by
united spirit of patriotism and 10y
atty. Let every man between the des-
ignated ages be prompt to register so
that it may be said that no one had

Farm Bureau Clothes Line-"If

Farm Bureau Clothes Line-"If you
want anything, visit the farm bureau"
has become a watchword with many
people, according to Secretary w. F.
Edwards who says that some who have
adopted this motto practice as they
preach. For instance, the secretary
who, in his affluence in these pros
porous days, has revealed in the lux
ury of a second suit of clothes, bought
of change of glad rags" down town
and got them cleaned Wednesday in
order that he might turn out to church
in his "best bib and tucker" on Sun
day He failed to bring them home
from the bureau office when the taller
returned them, and on Friday evening
when he went to look for them he
found that some needy person had
visited the office during his absence
and enticed them away. Chief of
Police Taylor was notified and on a
visit to the second hand store dis
covered that a man giving his name
as M Swan had brought the suit of
clothes in with a plausible and con-
vincing tale and had disposed of them.
Edwards says that at present there are
no extra suits around the office and
that when he has one for the special
convenience of the impecuniOus, he
will put up a sign so stating.
