FIRE PREVENTION
LECTURE THURSDAY
Individual Responsible
ity For Fire Preven-
ton is Urged
STUDENTS HELP

H. Schively, publicity agent for
the Pacific states bureau for the pre-
ventiOn of fires, was heard in the
Blackfoot schools Thursday He was
introduced by State immigration
Commissioner 0. H. Barber.
Mr.. Schively's message was pre-
sented in a manner that never fails
to keep up interest and to get the
message into the hearts and brains
of all hearers. He had the voice of
born orator and the inspiration of
a man doing good work for all hui
manity.
In support of the plea he made for
care in handling matches, smokes
and household fires, Mr.. Schively
pointed out the annual losses in the
United States alone from fires was
$3.50, 100000 in property and 10000
human lives wiped out. He said that
the most tragic part of this tremen-
dous wastage lay in the fact that 80
per cent of all fires are preventa BILE.
He wished to impress on the
school students their own RESPONSE
Willy. L licS dTc Il0 T0Sult Ill HOSL
cases of the old principle of "Let
George do it," he said it was the
duty of every person to prevent fires
whenever a chance occurred. More
than fire a minute is the constant
year in year out record of the United
States. The vigilance of individuals
alone can stop the terrible loss
Most of the deaths are of women
and children and firemen.
The enthusiasm for individual re-
sponsibility, which leaders are trying
to instill into the younger folks, is
one of the principle elements Of boy
scout work. Mr.. Sehively's advice to
each to be self appointed guardian
of public safety sounded much like
the healthy creed Of the boy scouts.
Principal causes Of fires are, Mr..
Schiyely said, "Unclean chimneys,
electric irons, electric cords touching
metal, wood boxes too near the stove,
using kerosene to build kitchen fires,
stove pipes becoming disjointed, and
rags and rubbish which burn from
spontaneous combustion. OF the last
named cause 500 fires occurred last
year"

County Car Blew up
on a Rainy Night

Something has happened to the
county car. 1t went out on it's own
power and came in on the end of a
rope. Its experience was unusual.
1t hit the new tabernacle in it's home
coming. y
On Tuesday evening some of the
workmen at the new tabernacle in
front of the sheriff's office were NOV
ing twenty-ton girder and the
whistle must have blown before they
got it in out of the street, for they
left it proped up thirty inches above
ground and reaching to the middle
of the street, and no red light on it..
Deputy Sheriff Dayly came back in
the night and rain and something
tore off one side Of his car Just at
that point and it stopped. By the
rules. Of the game it should not have
done that, for it was Ford.
When the contractor found what
had happened he claimed the privi-
lege of rebuilding or replacing the
car.

| more desirable position that was
open to him, and said that he would
like to be released from his contract,
but that he would not press it nor he
would not exercise his privilege Of
resigning on thirty days notice as
provided in the contract, His rea-
son for wishing to accept the states
offer was purely financial advantage.
While the present position enabled
him to make very little above ex-
penses of the year, the other posi-
tfon would enable him to save about
| $4,000 a year more than he can here.
If they decided to release him he
would of course remain until his sue
cessor became acquainted with the
work. If he remained until the end
of the year and the change was made
during the summer, the new man
would be at greater disadvantage
than to step in when everything was
running and well organized as at
present. He said the work is so well
In hand by the organization that IL
he were away for month the school
would not suffer, and under such cir
cumstances a change of superinten-
dent could be made without any seri-
GUS interruption anywhere in the
work
The board decided to make the re-
lease and let good man do what is
best for himself. He has served the
community and its varied interests
for ten full years and started on the
eleventh. He began in a rather
meager salary, took advances in sal
ary as they came, saw the cost of
living follow up so closely that it was
difficult to get money ahead, he did
his part in home-building in the
town, carried his part of all public
burdens and in many things did his
part and some for others, and as the
board thought these things over they
were glad to see this better position
offered to him and glad to open the
way for him to accept.
When the board considers what
this community is losing in letting
Prof. Vincent go, it was also strong
argument in favor of allowing the
state to receive the benefits of his
service in the new position. He is
wonderful manager of boys, and
an inspiration to them, holding them
to their plans and ambitions thru
thick and thin. He has done much
for the boy scouts and is taking on
greater work in that line, yet the
ability to handle boys is the very
thing the state needs at st. Anthony
and in that larger sphere of useful
ness the interests Of the state are en-
titled to consideration.
j. Fred Williams, the present sup
eriAtendent of the Industrial school,
is preparing to go into business for
himself in Boise and is ready for the
change as soon as it can be arranged.

SHALL THE FARM BUREAU
BUY THE FAIRGROUNDS?
Matter to Be Put Up to Farmers and Town
People. Combination of Many Inter-
ests Taking Form
HAVE THIRTY DAYS TO DECIDE AND ACT

At q meeting of the representa-
tives of the fair association and the
farm bureau the first of the week,
it was decided to postpone action on
the sale of the fairgrounds for. one
month to give time for the farm
bureau to take action looking to the
purchase of the property. Leading
men in the farm bureau think that
the farmers would rather buy the
property at the present low offer of
something like $11,0 and preserve
it for the purpose of fairs and all
amusements than to let it be cut up
and pass out of existence in that
sense.
! lie uses they suggest putting it to
besides holding the fair are for stock
sales and sale of all the things that
generally go on sale in farm auc-
ton; annual stock shows, picnics,
sports of all kinds, boys and girls
club meetings, pioneer day celebra-
tions, Indian fairs and round-ups,
and perhaps the site for the farm
bureau building to house all the Of
fees and exhibits and in which to
hold the farm Institutes, pure seed
shows and conventions, canal meet
ings, general water meetings and all
things relating to agriculture and
stockraising. 1t is expected that the
more rapid introduction of pure
bred stock will result in more fre-
quent sales until the pure bred stOck
shipment and sales into the county,
become monthly occurrences. The
stock sheds and buildings there will
make it a suitable place to receive
and distribute stock shipments into
and out of the county.
Since the need for the extension of
North Broadway into and thru the
fairgrounds has been SO much felt
and agitated to relieve the crowded
condition between North Main street
and the Rich lane plans are shaping i
for making the main entrance into
the fairgrounds from the Broadway

County Agent /
Estimates Crops


County Agent Monroe reports that
the potato crop in this county seems
to be about so per cent normal. The
greatest loss was due to getting a
poor stand and the other loss was
due to water shortage.
The hay crop, Mr.. Monroe says, is
about 125 per cent of last year, and
many farmers have third cutting.
The farmers have agreed upon
$17.5 as the acceptable price, but
many have sold at $40. George A.
Line of Springfield sold his this week
at $40, but he did not know what
measurement.
Many farmers have raised Dicklow
wheat and are getting results that
are very satisfactory, so much so that
they will not raise any other kind
now. F. A. Starkweather had nearly
all of his large farm near Moreland
in that kind, and Mr.. Monroe meas
ured twenty-eight acres of it and
found it threshed fifty-four and one
half bushels per acre..

RESIGNS TO SERVE
STATE INSTITUTION
Professor Vincent Leav-
ing After Ten Years
in Blackfoot
COMMUNITY LOSS

The state has offered, and Prof.
Vincent has accepted, the appoint
ment of superintedent of the Indus
trial school at st. Anthony. The
Blackfoot school board released him
so he could take the better position,
and the change will be made as soon
as a satisfactory successor can be
found for the superintendency of the
Blackfoot schools. There seem to
be several available, and it Is
thought that selection can be made
of one who will be satisfactory.
On Monday evening there was a
meeting of the school board and
Prof. Vincent informed them of this

Community Captains
for Drive Appointed
Colonel f. e. DeKay Toured the
County Wednesday and Appointed
Captains for Districts
ALL ARE GLAD TO HELP

The Salvation Army drive which
will be put on in Bingham county the
week of September % and 20, for
the purpose of raising $4,000 as the
county's share OF the armys annual
budget, has been organized with
Colonel F. E. DeKay in charge and
community captains in every part of
the county.
Colonel DeKay made a tour Of the
county Wednesday and appointed tile
following captains to direct the good
work of the various communities.
Shelley, Stull Wright; Firth, M. M.
Farmer and l.. F. Ramsey; Aber-
deem, Glen Fugate and Marion Jack
son; Thomas, John r. Williams;
Springfield, Carl Blackburn; Pin
gree, G. E. Jensen; Sterling, John
Ziegler; Basalt, Charles Criddle
and Joseph H. Dye; Moreland,
Joseph Fyans. These captains will
in turn appoint lieutenants to do the
soliciting, which in this case will be
no more than holding out the hand
because of the good will the army
has gained all over the country.
All the money received will be
turned in to the community captains
and will be in turn sent to Colonel
DeKay at Blackfoot. When $4,000
has been raised the drive stops.
No hesitancy was met with in or
ganizing the staff which will put on
this campaign. The men of the A.
E. F. have SO thoroly advertised the
unselfish quality of service delivered
in France by the Salvation Army
that when a chance to do something
for that great charitable organiza-
tion comes to man or a woman they
all say "sure!"

Parents and Teachers
Enjoyed Reception

The Parent-Teachers association
enjoyed delightful reception at the
high school Monday evening. 1t was
source Of great satisfaction to both
parents and teachers to meet and be-
come acquainted with one another
and such little corporations as these
&C long way toward building up
better school service.
A nice program was rendered, con-
sisting Of vocal and musical num-
bers and some fine readings. At the
close Of the evening light refresh
ments were served.

side and thus relieve the congestion
on North Main. 1t will enable the
cars to travel in circuit when de-
livering passengers to the gates, and
it Is possible the bureau building
may q be erected in the southern
corner of the grounds facing both
Main and Broadway and the street
extended into 1t for one block from
both, making new entrances within
the grounds, but having the admin
istration or bureau building at the
front. If this is done it will simplify
matters of traffic and add to the con-
venience and beauty of the whole
thing.
To secure lots suitable for the site
of the farm bureau building sug-
gested by this paper some months
ago, and which committees are work.
ing on, would cost about half as
much as the whole Fairgrounds. The
farmers of the county are now to be
consulted to see if they would rather
buy the fairgrounds, build there and
incorporate all their activities in the
lines described above. 1t is thought
that stock company should be or
ganized for about 100000 and only
SIS or $40 worth sold to any one per-
son. Each district in the county
would be apportioned it's part of the
stock to subscribe, the matter would
be handled like a liberty loan, and
the needs of the farm bureau pro-
vided. 1t would at the same time
preserve the grounds for sports for
both the white men and the Indians
the town people would be interested
along with the farmers, and the sale
of stock would probably be made i'll
one week. All these interests com
lined would put the Bingham County
Farm bureau near the head of that
class of organizations in western
states ,and it would make it possible
for Blackfoot to preserve the 'front.'

Council Hears
Engineers Report
Advises on Cost of Adequate Water
Systems for BlackfoOt... Reports
Made on Street Paving
ACCEPT NEW STREET FLUsHER

The city council heard reports
Tuesday evening on street crossings
where sidewalk requirements have
been met, on street paving, and on
prospective water supply systems for
the city.
The crossings were ordered to be
built, after advertising for contrac-
tors bids. A shipment of culverts
was authorized to be ordered to come
with materials ordered by the
county.
A request by E. M. Kennedy that
his new addition on South Broadway
be taken into the city was heard and
filed for consideration.
The street pavement matter was
dropped for the immediate present
on account of delays by the bonding
house which was to draw up the
papers and on account Of approach
ing winter and shortage of contract
workers.

which commenced Tuesday to dem
onstrate it's usefulness on the streets
of Blackfoot was accepted by the

Engineers Favor Putnam Water
A report was made to the council
by engineers Cotton & Wilson, who
presented also full blueprint maps,
showing the cost of each of five pro-
posed water systems that might be
installed by Blackfoot. Their ad-
vice placed the Mt. Putnam springs

deep wells within the city as second

systems varied, the first years
