DISTINGUISHED PAIR
BLACKFOOT GUESTS
Private Peat Who VIII Address
Chautauqua Audience Here
This Monday Evening
A REAL HERO OF WAR HERE

Harold N. Peat, known as Private
Peat, will speak at the chautauqua
tonight.
Mrs. Peat lives in Chicago with
their little daughter fourteen months
old and she took a flying trip to
Idaho to visit with him for week
or two in his work. She came to
Blackfoot Saturday in order that she
might hear Miss Tarbell's address.
Mrs. Peat spent Sunday and Mon
day in town and many people have
enjoyed her fine personality in little
visits with her. She is stopping at
the Eccles and leaves with Mr.. Peat
this Tuesday morning, which by the
way, is her birthday.
When Mr.. Peat addresses the
meeting this evening, people will see
a man whose shoulder and right lung
were nearly blown away by an ex-
plosive bullet. Parts were taken
from the shoulder of dying comrade
to rebuild Private Peat's shoulder
and he is gradually regaining the use
of his arm. After being hit by this
explosive bullet he lay for three days
and nights on the battlefield before
receiving first aid or even drink Of
water.

DOES IT PAY TO
HAVE CHAUTAUQAU
Figure Money Value of Chautauqua
Find it Pays to Bing 1t To
Our Midst for a Week
DECIDE AS TO IT'S VALUE NOW

People who do not appreciate very
fully the values that come in
chautauqua entertainments, and who
are considering whether or not to do
anything to have it come again next
year, might do a little figuring on
the moneary values of the chautau
qua when it comes to our town as
compared with the drain it makes
when it goes to neighboring town.
A great many people will go to
such entertainments if they can do so
by travelling twenty-five or fifty miles
and losing part of day. 1t costs
money and time to travel, and people
who are worrying about how much
money the chautauqua takes out of
town, might like to know how much
it brings to town. They might like
to know how much it takes out of
town when it shows twenty-five miles
away without coming here.
Before Blackfoot people knew very
much about what chautauqua is,
a good many of them made trips to
Idaho Falls and Pocatello, and took
in as much of it as they could. Now
that more people know what it is,
more would take those trips If that
were the only way they could get
it. The average person taking such
trip by rail would pay $1.60 railroad
fare, for the round trip, about $500
for hotel room and meals and 20
cents more for admission than if they
had a season ticket. BY losing
days time and spending $50 a
person can get two entertainments in
Idaho Falls or Pocatello. The aver
age person making such a trip has
some time to spare and does some
shopping and in that way takes some
money away from his home town and
leaves it in another town.
Nobody knows how many persons
would spend day in this way and
from $50 up to $40. Perhaps only
twenty persons would do that, and
take $50 out of the home town.
Persons making such trips in their
autos lose less time, and allowing for
one meal and one admission bought,
it takes only about $1.25 away from
the home town. Estimating that 600
persons would make one such trip
each, it takes $3.50 away from home.
Several hundred persons who would

Major Reed, executive secretary OF
the Idaho Reclamation association
frankly places before the people OF
the upper Snake river valley, mean
ing the country from Pocatello to the
Tetons, the intents and purposes OF
the Idaho Reclamation association
and it's relationship to the state OF
Idaho.
The association was organized at
Pocatello February 21, 1919. s. E.

was made president; o. O. Haga OF

get as much of them for Idaho as
porsible; to conduct campaign of

senators of the east who are not
familiar with reclamation and who
are in some instances Enfriendly;
and to carry On a legitimate cam
paign of advertising for Idaho.
Twenty-One counties responded to
the call at the Pocatello meeting, and
since that time, six more counties
have been added to the list of men,
bership. In the absence of state
appropriation, there is no way of
securing funds for the maintenance
of this organization except from the
citizens of Idaho. The county COM
missioners are empowered to appro-
pirate up to $1,000 from each county
for advertising and helping their
counties. This law will be found in
the session laws of 1911 Section 9,
page Is.
The commercial clubs, busina,s i'll
t. rests and large landholders can
support the organization from SUBJ
scriptions and donations. At the time
the organization was formed the am
nual membership was $1.0O This
was a mistake; the membership
should have been $500 because it
has been too hard and cost too much
money to collect the dollar. However,
this has good side. There are
many people who could not pay more
and they want to belong to an as
sociation of this kind which affords
them an opportunity.
Every county has an executive
committeeman elected by the associa-
ton, who is a member of the state
association and in its counsels. In
addition to that there is county
organization in every county consist
ing of president, secretary-treasurer
and as many vice-presidents as the
president thinks advisable to appoint
to work in the different districts of
the county.
The following are the names of
the executive committeeman of the
upper Snake river valley counties:

of this kind, whose intents and pur-
poses are so little understood, there
is bound to be more or less argument

GERMANS SIGN
PEACE COVENANT
Ceremonies for World Peace Con
Quoted in Historic Hall of Mir
rOrS at Versailles
THE SITUATION Is REVERSED

VERSAILLES and the
allied and associated powers signed
the peace terms here Saturday in the
same imperial hall where the Ger.
mans humbled the French so ignom.
inously forty-eight years ago.
This formally ended the world war
which lasted just thirty-seven days
less than five years. Saturday was
the fifth anniversary of the murder
of Archduke Francis Ferdinand at
Sarajevo.
The ceremony of signing the peace
terms was brief. Premier Clemenceau
called the session to order in the Hall
of Mirrors of the chateau of Yer.
sailles at $40 O'Clock. The signing
began when DR.. Hermann Mueller
and Johannes Bell, the German
signatories affixed their names. Dr.
Mueller signed at 3.12 o'clock and
Herr Bell at 3.13 o'clock President
Wilson, first of the allied delegates,
signed a minute later. At 3.45
o'clock the momentous session was
concluded.
All the diplomats and members of
their parties wore conventional
civilian clothes. There was a marked
lack of gold lace and pageantry.
There were few of the fanciful uni
forms of the middle ages whose
traditions and practices are SO
sternly condemned in the great, seal
covered document signed Saturday.
A spot of color was made against
this sombre background by the
rench guards. A few selected mem
bers of the guard were resplendent
in their red-plumed silver helmets
and red, white and blue uniforms.
AS a contrast with the Franco
German peace session of 1871, held
in the same hall, there were present
Saturday grizzled French veterans Of
the Franco-Prussian war. They re-
placed the Prussian guardsmen of the
previous ceremony and the French
men today watched the ceremony
with grim satisfaction. The condi-
tions of 1871 were exactly reversed.
day the disciples Of Bismark sat in
the seats of the lowly while the white
marble statute of Minerva, Goddess
War, looked on. Overhead, on the
frescoed ceiling, were scenes from
Frances ancient wars.

DRY FARM CROPS
IN SERIOUS PLIGHT
Failure Confronts Southern Idaho
Farmers in Sections IL the
DrOuth Continues
IRRIGATED FIELDS LOOK FINE

On his way back from the meeting
of the Rotary clubs at Salt Lake, G.
J. Sinsel, president Of the Idaho State
Horticultural society, stopped. off at
several towns in the southern part
of the state to ascertain crop condi-
tions. He visited Rexburg, Idaho
Falls, American Falls and Twin
Falls.
Mr.. Sinsel found the vast area of
dry farm lands in serious condition
from drouth, with crops a practical
failure.
Fear Water Shortage
The Twin Falls North Side tract is
alarmed for fear it will suffer short
age of water, but the irrigated dis
trict is in excellent condition, accord
ing to Mr.. Sinsel, and will have a
wonderful crop Of wheat, hay, corn
and the seed crops.
Twin Falls will have good crop
of apples and peaches, Mr.. Sinsel
said, as good as they have ever had.
Around Hagerman and Bliss the crop
is so large that the difficulty now
is to get sufficient labor to thin the
trees.
PROSTITUTION in Spots
In Utah, Mr.. Sinsel says, the frost
played the same tricks it did in
Idaho, doing it's damage in spots.
Dry farming conditions are poor.
During the sessions Of the Rotary
convention the men interested in
crops held round table and reported
that for distance of about seventy
five miles east and west of the Mis-
souri, river there were bad flood
conditions, and from those points on
each way the dry farm condition
commenced, getting worse as the
distance from the food territory in
creased.

Water Shortage Worth
Consideration not Fear

Fred E. Seeger, manager of the
Seeger-Bundlie. store, returned Sat
urday from hurried trip thru the
Yellowstone national park. 1t was
an enjoyable trip, Mr.. Seeger said,
tho only four days, but it was mar
red by the many proofs of actual
water shortage in the rivers, lakes
and mountain streams.
There is no doubt about it," said
Mr.. Seeger, there is going to be a
shortage of water, and yet it need
not be ruinous If farmers will con-
serve the water and do a lot of cul-
tivating. Less water and more cul-
tivation will make up for the handi-
cap. The water in Jackson lake is
lower than it has ever been, and
there is almost no snow in the noun
tains. 81 found the stock men of
the upper valley predicting high
prices for hay, and | think this
county is going to make some real
money out of hay
M. o. Monroe, when asked about
the water shortage, said it was true
that the season would be hard
one and a good lesson.
II am getting out letter to the
farmers" Mr.. Monroe said, "and If
they will cultivate more it will offset
to some degree the lack of irrigating
water. But it will be this way other
years. Farmers must learn to use
Just enough water and not waste
any.
Louis Felt tells me that he is
not going to lose any of his crop.
He is out every day with cultivator
on his potato fields. He never has
lost his crop, but has always given
it the proper care. .
"The trouble is that man will
run in lot of water in the morning,
and when he has flooded his fields
and the roads along side, he shuts 1t
off and lets the sun bake the ground
good and hard. OF course, when the
beet tops get higher they can't be
cultivated, but now is the time"
