AFTER THE WAR AGRICULTURE

Sound agricultural practice de-
mands the reestablishment of regular
and satisfactory rotations so that
fertility may be restored and the live
stock carrying capacity of the land
increased. Live stock, since it helps
to retain fertility of the land, pro-
Yides profitable use for large
amounts of roughage, and gives en-
ployment to labor thruout the year,
should find place on larger num-
Der Of farms. Many lands formerly
devoted to pasture or meadow, but
recently used for emergency grain
production, should be reseeded to
grass. f..
Diversified farming should became
more general to the end that each
farm shall produce the necessary
food for its family and the neces-
.sary food for its live stock. -.
Organized efforts for the preven-
ton and control of disease of ami
mails and the eradication of insect
and animal pests should be pro-
noted.
Loss from preventable plant
diseases should be guarded agains;
by seed treatment and spraying.
Greater care during harvesting
packing, storing and marketing Of
fruits and vegetables is needed
Cooperative effort for community
as we'll as individual improvement
will characterize the progressive
farmer of the day.

The feature film, Troubles of a
Merchant and How to Stop Them"
which will be shown for the first
time in this city was prepared by
the Essanay company for The Ma
tional Cash Register organization at
cost of $4,000. Expert actors were
employed for every character, and It
Is said that every scene contains
lesson for retail merchants and their
salespeople.
The film tells the story Of Mr..
White, a grocer, who was discour-
aged and disheartened because of his
lack of success. The story shows the
Indifference of his clerks, his bad
store systems, his poorly arranged
stock, and other causes, of his
troubles. How he finally rose to
success and prosperity thru the, in
PRODUCTION of modern methods into
his store will be shown in the film. .
Many ideas of importance to mer-
chants and clerks will be = brought
out during the lecture. In other
communities where it has been
shown, it has met with great en-
thusiasm. It is expected that every
business man and clerk In the city
will avail himself of the opportunity
offered by the lecture and that a.
large attendance will result. No
charge will be made for admission. .

C. w. Bergman
Endorses Good Roads
Man Of Many Years Experience
Judges the Future by s-
GOOD PAVING A NECESSITY

Six years ago when Blackfoot was
considering paving, C. w. Bergman
attended mass meeting and coun-
selled prudence and delay in paving.
and gave several reasons that met
with such sincere approval that the
undertaking was given up. Two years
later woman from the country was
lying her team at the corner Of
Bridge and Main streets and as Mr..
bergman was passing she said to
Inn, "Mr. Bergman this is pretty
lasty place for a person to have to
lie up, and look what l have got to
wade thru to get to the side walk"
r.. Bergman made new resolu-
ton right there and replied, well.
jou are right, we need paving and
we must have it whether we have
these other things we need or not"
and he advised forgetting the several
things we had been waiting for, and
paving the streets. He said he did
not want to see women wading thru
mud and manure in the streets and
at the hitching racks any longer IL
he could help it. He was ready to
pay his share and have things bet
ter. The following year the streets
were paved.
Last Friday morning as a big mo-
tor truck passed the bank carrying
1000 pounds of -four from Mr..
Capp's mill, someone said, "Mr.
Bergman, | guess it was all right
for us to pave the streets when we
did, wasn't it," And he replied, "Oh
yes. That was the greatest thing
we ever did. Nobody was hurt by
1t and everybody was benefited, so
far as l can judge" ~
That is probably the way we shall
all feel about our expensive roads
after we have used them a while.
Three years ago Mr.. Caps was hav-
ing all degrees of grief moving
1our from his mill to the cars and
stores. All the teams in town could
not have pulled a vehicle loaded
with 1000 pounds, yet one man on
he motor truck scoots it along now,
Is fast as a horse can trot. If Mr..
Capps was doubtful about paving
hen, Well bet he hasn't any doubts
low. If any man is in doubt about
some country roads now,
We. suggest that some woman put
he question up to him in all fair
less as to whether he would have
present conditions continue merely
o save a possible increase in taxes
or few years. In that supreme
moment in the presence Of woman,
man comes to his best judgment.
Mr.. Bergman did.

INVESTIGATING NINE

G. L. Braley, former deputy game
warden, has just returned from a
professional trip to California, where
he has exported gold mining pro-
position. 1t appears that this mine
has been worked for many years by
Chinese and Japanese and that by
the expenditure of certain sums Of
money to tunnel beneath the mount
aims and drain the channel of the
river, large quantities Of gold will
be recovered.
No doubt Mr.. Braley will proceed
at once with the tunneling work and
that in short time prosperity will
be blooming.

GOSHEN ROAD MAN IN TOWN

H. R. Christensen of Goshen was
in town Thursday and talked about
roads. He said the macadam road
made by dumping Goshen gravel
promiscuously on the ground for a
mile north and half a mile west of
Goshen, is dry, hard and smooth
these days, and when a car gets on
that, it spins along as fast as the
driver cares to ride. There is no
speed ordinance in effect there, and
all is lovely.
Mr.. Christensen says that little
strip of road, made at very little ex-
pense is joy to all who travel that
way There are no breaks nor holes
in it, and so far as one can see, it is
as good as our paving.

Fagin for taking a chance
Moscovitch has often played in
America, but then he only spoke In the

his lines with a strong Hebraic accent

MRS. Stokes GETS
ALIMONY AND FEES
Court Awards 1900 Monthly
and $1,000 in Fight to
Prove Innocence.

Mrs Helen Elwood Stokes will be af-
forded every assistance within the power
OF the Supreme Court Of the County of
New York in her legal fight to estab-
lish her innocence of charges made
against her by w. r. d. Stokes her
multimillionaire husband. who is suing
for absolute divorce.
This was made clear yesterday when
Justice Gavegan, sitting in Part IL,
Special Term. signed an order requir-
ing the plaintiff to pay alimony OF
$1,000 month and an additional al
lcwance to Mrs. Stokes of $500 to
meet counsel fees in what promises to
be a lengthy and costly matter Of litiga-
ton. The alimony must be paid on the
FIRST Of each month while the suit Ii
pending.
Stokes caused to be filed In the
County Clerks office some time age
action for a divorce, but owing to the
secrecy which surrounds such proceed
ings, II was not until the application
for alimony was made before Justice
Gavegan that the details in connection
became known. The plaintiff names
several friends Of the defendant as CO.
respondents and among them is his
own son, w. Z. D. (Weddie) Stokes
Jr., a stepson of the defendant.
All the allegations are emphatically
denied in Mrs Stokes's answer to the
complaint and her counter-claim II
which she asks that a legal separation
be granted to her. She mentions In hei
affidavit the alleged fact that zone o,
the women friends of Stokes had sho
him in an apartment one evening while
he was.making a call.
Regarding the alimony allowance, Jus
tice Gavegan stated that it appeared
from papers submitted by Mrs. Stokes
counsel, Myles A Welsh of Littleton 4
Lindsay. that Stokes has been expend
ing regularly at least $500 a month fol
the support of the defendant and thei
children, and as the defendant denie
all his allegations she is rightfully en-
titled to this sum. in view of her hus
bands own statements regarding hi
financial situation and income.
In a telegram received from Denver
where Mrs. Stokes was visiting, she an
nounced her intention of bringing an
other suit against her husband and he
stepson, alleging conspiracy through
which she was tricked into signing ava!
her dover rights to New York realt!
owned by Stokes. which are valued a
100000.
