AT ELKS CONVENTION.
Chaplain HI. w. Jones Stirs Elks with
Address ON Salvation Army.

Yakima, Wash. Aug. 25.-Chaplain
Harry w. Jones. chaplain Of the New
York State Elks Association, and Sal
walton Army overseas worker, swept
the Elks Convention off its feet with
his stirring addresses on The Saliva
ton Army work overseas and at home
The convention was in session three
days here. August q, % and 23rd, and
the Salvation Army campaign which
is now backed by every lodge of the
State was featured in the sessions
parades and even In the frolic The
Elks had the greatest playtime In the
history of the Washington State Elks
association Twelve visiting bands
were in session and the city rang with
band music and all kinds Of other mu-
sic for almost "a hours every day.
Patriotic and big Brother" move
ments were given serious consideration
including the support Of the Red Cross
after-the-war care of service men and
war saving stamp sales. The Elks
made definite plans for helping the
boys who go to the State Training
school for Boys at Chehalis both while
in the school and after they. leave, es-
pecially after they leave by seeing that
they get into an environment that will
continue their education as good citi-
zens until such time as they can re-
turn to their old environment with the
effect Of uplifting that environment
rather than having 1t get them into
trouble again.
Cheer after cheer for The Salvation
Army was given. Chaplain Jones
spoke to the Convention and when he
was through there was hardly dry
eye in the house He addressed meet
ing of 10000 In the grandstand of the
State Fair grounds and made open air
talks from the Elks Club room steps
and at other places about the city
The story he told OF the war service
was the most thrilling that any had
heard. and his tribute to Elkdom fol-
what it was doing for The Army and
for other movements intended to hell
their fellowmen was one of the most
brilliant tributes ever heard at state
convention.
Plans for the organization of junior
Elk or other boys clubs to instill in
the minds of the boys growing into
men the big Americanism and other
high ideals of the Elks order were also
made.

the general public, Elks day-Wed-
nesday, Sept. Lat the Border Days
show in Grangeville, promises to be
whizzer
Whizzer is just as good word Tor
that as yiu'll find In any little town.
George Behean, himself an Elk, has
designated Sept. II as Elks day. He
is president and general manager OF
the coming Border Days-Sept. 10
IL. 12-and George has the authority.
Therefore we let George do 1T. and

things, Little Virgil sleek. slick,
trick mule. Little Virgil will be at
Border Days on Elks Day and rid
ing contest open to visiting Elks is to
be staged. The Elk who stays mount
ed on Little Virgil for the greatest
duration Of time wins ten bucks.
This contest is open to Elks from all
parts of the world, bar none, except
ing all parts Of the globe outside the
corporate limits of Lewiston, Moscow
and Spokane. This restriction is
placed in order to halt several Elks
who have ridden mules before and
know the game.
Veterinarians from Grangeville,
Cottonwood and Nezperce will be on
the grounds to administer first aid
to Little Virgin and others, should
accidents occur. SO the visitors need
have no fear OF permanent injuries.
Rivalry between ''buckaroos" from
Lewiston, "cowpunchers" from Mos

who will attempt to ride little Vir-
Cir in turn, is expected to be keen
from the start.

part of the committee assures the
spectators of seeing the air filed with
airplanes, balloons and other flying
objects, including, visiting Elks from
the hurricane deck of Little Vir,
gil" the whole creating wonderful
mid-air program.
Other stunts of special interest and
for the particular benefit of visiting
Elks are being planned by the com
mittee Formal invitations to the
B. p. o. r. lodges at Lewiston, Mos
cow and' Spokane are to be issued by

Department Of Agriculture Will Give
Producers Valuable Service.

The Marketing Agencies of the va
rious states each have their individual
IDEAS of giving service to their people.
While some market departments try
to fix and regulate prices and others
devote all their attention to the or
ganization of cooperative marketing
associations, a few of these agencies
attempt general brokerage business
by buying an selling farm products.
The Idaho Bureau of Markets Is
firm in the belief that II should not
attempt to fix prices, nor does 1t feel
that any benefit to the producers can
be accomplished In transacting the
duties of broker. No money trans
actions will be handled by this office.
1t will be the aim of the Bureau to
give the producer accurate informa-
ton as to what his product is worth.
and as to where he can sell Ii and
to assist him In every possible man
ner to properly and profitably dis
pose of his crops.
The laws of Idaho have given the
Department of Agriculture the power
to establish grades. on farm products
and official grades have been estab.
lished on potatoes, hay, apples, Italian
prunes and leguminous seeds, and cit
is unlawful to pack for sale, offer to
sell. or TO sell any of these products
unless they conform to the official
grade or standard. 1t is provided
however. that this does not APP
ply when such product will be con-
sumed or used for manufacturing pur-
poses wholly within this State. Blu
reau of Markets Inspectors are now
inspecting the potatoes. hay and fruit
which is being shipped.
When the last Legislature placed
the Weights and Measures work I'M
der the jurisdiction of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. they neglected
to make any appropriation for main.
tanning Weights and Measures DE
partment. This is so important and
vital to the producers and consumers
that this Department is using a por-
ton OF its finds for the inspection of
scales. The condition of scales that
farmers are selling their products
over, as well as those that every con.
sumner is buying his meat and gro.
eries over. Is alarming. Approx
nately 800 scales were tested In Boise
alone. and over one half of them were
iound inaccurate. Many of them were
'asily adjusted and made accurate
while about ) per cent of them were
condemned The Oregon Short Line
has equipped a scale-testing
ar. and are cooperating very closely
With the State Of Idaho In making all
wagon and warehouse scales register
honest weights. Two Oregon Short
line scale experts and representa-
i've from this Department are in
harge of this car. 1t Is deplorable
The Grangeville globe. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho) 1907-1922, 1919-08-28

that rigid inspection cannot be
made of all weights and measures in
Idaho, but in the absence of an ap-
preparation, the work will of neces
sity be governed by the funds avail

The Idaho Department of Weekly

week, which is devoted exclusively to

easily pass out without being missed;
that the only time they are checked
Is when they start work In the morn
ing and quit at night.
Bates says he had never been arrested
before. He added that although the
court might sentence him 10 100 years
