years experience with cattle and
dairies and bespoke the confidence of
1dahos dairymen and citizens for the

but a mere commercial child to be-
come what he believed to be Idaho's
best asset, and said further that in

state, and he felt that there was room
for double that number. and with the
natural advantages of the state, there
was no reason why Idaho should not
be first in the production of cheese and
butter in the whole country.
He commented briefly upon the enor-
nous resources of the state, as yet
barely touched, and said that it was
his belief that Idaho could be hem
med in by an insurmountable wall
on it's four boundaries. and its resi-
dents would live well and be prosper
