cannot have official relations with a government which is resolved to con- spire against it's institutions; whose diplomats would be instigators of re- volt; and whose spokesmen proclaim that they will sign contracts with the intention not to observe them"
 Detects Red Camouflage
 Mir Colby also issued areply to an assertion by Foreign Minister Tchit- cherin of the soviet government that the Bolsheviki have shown they strictly adhere to obligations" and that if they promised to protect the United States against agitation of the Third Internationale, all our rep resentatives will rigidly fulfill this pledge"
 'I do not suppose" said Mir. Colby, "Mr. Tchitcherin has superseded Lenine as the authoritative spokes- man of soviet purpose. The actual words of Lenine are in sharp con trast to the utterances of his foreign minister.
 "Said Lenine before the coun- cil of the peoples commissaries, during negotiations on the Prin- kipo conference: T have never hesitated to come to terms with bourgeoise governments, when by so doing l thought would weaken the bourgeoise. The time has come for US to con cIude second Brest-litoVsk, this time with the entente. We must make peace not only with the entente, but also with Poland, lithuania, and the Ukraine, and all other forces opposing us in
 Russia. We must be prepared to make every concession, promise and sacrifice, to entice our foes into the conclusion of this peace. We shall know that we have but concluded a truce permitting us to complete our preparations for a decisive onslaught which will assure our triumph
 Tn the same connection, on Feb ruary ?, 1919, Zinoviev, intimate as- sociate of Lenine and Trotsky, said: "We are willing to sign an un- favorable peace with the allies. it would only mean we should put no trust in the bit of paper we should sign. We should use the breathing space to gather our strength in or der that the mere continued exist ence of our government would keep up the world wide propaganda which soviet Russia has been carrying on for more than a year
 "On another occasion, he is report ed by MT. Lincoln Eyre to have said:
 "our propaganda system Is as
 strong and as far reaching as ever. The third internationaIe is
 primarily an instrument of revo- lution. This work will be con tinued, legally or illegally. The
 soviet government may pledge
 itself to refrain from propagan- da abroad, but the third intcrna- tionaIe, never.'"

 United States 101 points; Finland 49; Sweden 26; England "A; France 12; South Africa '; Italy '; Canada z; Norway 3; New Zealand $; Esth- onia 8. These figures represent the scoring in the finals of eleven con- tests since Sunday.
 The breaking oi one worlds record the no metres hurdles-which had points by ten nations in four final events, were features of the fourth day in the track and field sports in the Olympic games today. 5c
 The record was made by Earl Thompson, representing Canada. He and the American athletes claim some credit for his prowess. Thomson went over the hurdles in IA 45 sec onds The old record, both Olympic and worlds, was Is seconds.
 H. E. Baron of the Meadowbrook club, Philadelphia, was second and Fred s. Murray of the New York A.. C., third.
 While Italy. Canada, Finland and Sweden won all four first places to- day, the consistent performances Of the Americans gained them three sec ond places, two thirds, two fourths. one fifth and one sixth-a total of 32 points. Sweden came next with 15 and Finland third with 12. These three nations now are IeadIng in jDs point honors, with England fourth.
 Aside from the consistency of the Americans, there was nothing espe- cially noteworthy in today's perform ances. The shut out of Americans from first places were decisive. In the 110 metres hurdles Thomson led Baron by two yards.

GRAIN GRADING
DEMONSTRATION
WILL BE HELD AT THE
FARMERS UNION WARE
HOUSE JUNE Is.

Under the auspices of our
County Farm Bureau there will
be held at the Farmers Union
Warehouse Tuesday the 18th
day of June a grain grading de-
monstration by the Department
of Agriculture.
Idaho's wheat business is one
of her greatest industries. We
produce annually approximately
Is million bushels. This means
"a value of about 36 million dol
lars. Yet the farmers are grow
ing that crop without much at
tention being given to the con-
ditions under which it must be
marketed. The marketing qu-
estion is a big one and one that
should be of interest to every
wheat grower in the state.
Recently the Federal Wheat
Standards were adopted by the
State Department of Agricul-
ture. These standards are to
govern the sale and purchase of
all wheat this coming year. The
old system of basing the price
upon the average quality of the
crop in any community is a thing
of the past.
The standards are established
upon the actual commercial
value of the various grades. The
percentage of dockage, INSOFAR
able foreign material, the mois-
ture content, the damage if any,
mixture with other classes of
wheat and the test weight per
bushel are all factors which de-
termine the commercial value of
any lot of wheat. This places
a premium upon high quality
wheat and a price is received for
the inferior grades which they
warrant. Good farming receiv-
es the benefit. Grades dis
courage the production of mixed
or otherwise low grade grain and
are benefit of the farming
class as a whole.
From the standpoint of the
dealer-grades give him an alb.
solute standard upon which tt
buy and sell. They are a protec.
tion to him when making inter.
state shipments and place his
activities upon a sound business
basis.
In many sections of Idaho thl
standards are not understood
Farmers in general are not fami
lar with the standards. Many
dealers do not interpret then
properly and the large percent
; age of dealers are not equipped
. with the necessary apparatus t,
accurately arrive at the grade
. In order that these conditions
may be overcome demonstra
tions have been arranged TO
. thru the various county Farm
Bureaus. The standards an,
. regulations will be taken up il
detail. A fully equipped grad
ing laboratory will be installed
Farmers should make ever,
. effort to attend this demonstra
tion. Learn how your grail

HELP! HELP!

Cottonwood wants 500
persons to purchase season
tickets for t h e coming
chautauqua. Many people
seem to be of the opinion
that if they pay their adj
mission at the entrance
every day they attend it
will be all right. There are
two very good reasons why
you should not do this, the
first being it is cheaper to
purchase a season ticket,
and second because the bus
mess men who signed the
guarantee get no credit, OF
rather a very small credit
where tickets are sold at
the entrance. The seaso,.
ticket is what counts to
make up the guarantee.
Remember the season tick
cts are transferable to any
member in the immediate
family. So buy a season
ticket.

A HISTORICAL SKETCH CONCERNING
ST. GERTRUDE'S CONVENT

1t is now fourteen years since
some Sisters, the vanguard of
what was going to be later on
the community of st. Gertrude,
arrived in Cottonwood. Rev.
Mother Hildegarde, Prioress, ac-
companied by her counsellor
came with a view to select a
suitable place for transferring
the headquarters of the Com
munity, heretofore located at
Cotton, Washington. Those were
still pioneer days. The Camas
Prairie country did not yet
boast of its scenic railroad,
speeding automobiles were look
ed upon as a luxury indulged in
by but a few in our larger cities,
and travellers to our prairie had
to depend on the old faithful
PAGERS to take them up the
rough pathways of'the hills and
mountains, the cradle of this
land of prodigious fertility. The
founders of st. Gertrude's were
the heroes in many incidents,
both amusing and sad, which
have since often served them to
enliven the recreations of the
Community. Then the real work
was begun, very modestly in
deed and gradually building was
added to building, in order to ac-
commodate the co-laborers
which Holy Providence directed
to the growing Community.
origin of st. Gertrude's
Some questions might be ask
ed concerning the origin of the
Benedictine Sisters of st. Cert
rude's and the object of their
settling in what some might call
an out of the way country re-
mote from all large centers-the
answer to this can he given in a
few words, viz. history relates
how religious Orders and Com
munities having scarcely taken
root in a locality, began like
fruitful trees to spread their
branches in different directions,
and preferably in those parts
where their inborn desire for do
ing good to their neighbOr SEEM
ed to receive special response,
for such is their great object in
life, namely; to give God all the
honor in their power and serve
God in the person of the neigh
bor. This it was which prompt
ed the members of a venerable
centuries old monastery of nuns
in Sarnen, Switzerland to send a
colony of their members to this
land of the free and the brave
Therefore, this Community is of
Swiss origin, but both by their
willing adaptation to the uses,
manners and spirit of the land
of their adoption and by opening
the doors of their Convent to the
willing candidates of the New
Land, have now really become an
American homogeneous institu-
ton, all intent on "going about
doing good" after the example OF
Christ.
Sphere of Activity.
The world at large sometimes
curiously inquiries regarding the
sphere of activity of our Sister
hoods. In this case the ques'
tion is answered as soon as ask
ed. Those among you who
have visited the premises of st
Gertrude's have been unanimous
! in praising the improvements
made in a heretofore primitive
and undeveloped stretch o.
ground, and that, in such a short
space of time. What an outlay
of money, you think, this mus

Community
MUST ORGANIZE
CAN MAKE FIGHT EFFEC-
TIVE AGAINST HOPPERS
If ORGANIZED.

A great many inquiries have
been received by the County
Agricultural Agent as to what
affect the weather has had on
the grasshopper eggs and also on
the grasshoppers that have al
ready hatched.
Throughout the entire county
the grasshoppers are Matching
the eggs that were laid last fall
in the breaks and the scab lands.
These eggs are farther advanced
than those on the prairie but the
eggs on the prairie are fertile
and a few warm days will hatch
the grasshoppers.
The general opinion all over
the county is that the cold, rainy
spring we are having will affect
the grasshoppers and that the
crops will not be very seriously
endangered this year. This is
a mistake as the only affect that
the weather will have on the
eggs and the grasshoppers that
are Matched will be to retard the
Matching and check their grow
tn. But as soon as the weather
clears up the grasshoppers will
hatch in great numbers.
The only sure way to eXter-
inmate the grasshoppers is for
every farmer in the entire coum-
ty to cooperate and poison the
grasshoppers. The Idaho Coun-
ty Farm Bureau has, in several
communities, organized tn e
farmers for this grasshopper
fight. These men have put
their money in one fund and will
poison the glasshopper where
yer they hatch out, regardless OF
whose land it is on or how much
poison will have to be used to
exterminate them.
This is the only sure way to
make a success of a poison cam
paign. The grasshopper will
eat the poison when it is mixed
and distributed according to the
government directions. If the
directions are carefully followed
and the poison is put out as dir.
ected there will be no danger oi
poisoning any kind of stock. The
/ two following methods may bt
used. '"The Poisoned Brar
Bait" has proven to give the best
success. In some cases 9TH,
Criddle Mixture" has provel
successful.
The Poisoned Bran Bait.
The mixture known as the poi
soned-bran bait has proved to b.
a simple, reliable, and cheal
method of destroying grasshop
pers, and has been applied will

represent, how much toll this
stands for. Yes, but you do not
know perhaps that the indust-
rious Sisters of st. Gertrude's
justly claim an almost exclusive
share in this work of improve
ment and establishment. Con-
vents have been compared to
bee-hives, this comparison fully
applies to st. Gertrude's.
We leave out that part of ac-
tivity which is spent in the quiet,
secluded, intimate life of the
community, saying only this
about it, that is is in their heart
to-heart intercourse with God
that the Sisters draw that i'm
pelling power which blossoms
forth in all kinds of good works.
First concerning educational act
ivity. The constantly growing
part which the Sisters are as
suming in the work of education
is well known. Many commun-
tiles of the Prairie are enjoying
the benefits of the Jealous Sis
ters teachers of st. Gertlude's,
who also conduct an Academy
and schools in our neighboring
state. And be it here remark
ed, these days where so much is
said about inadequate salaries
and consequent dearth of teach
ers, the Rev. Pastors, in whose
parishes the Sisters of st. Ger
trude's are conducting schools
are not worrying on that account
knowing very well that the char
ity of their teachers is not going
to be dampened by the prospect
of High Cost of Living, nor their
devotedness to be measured by a
mere financial standard, what
ever this may mean? Their
motto, first and last is, ITO do
good to their neighbor and trust
in God for the rest"
In Union there is Strength.
Let us tell you, dear reader,
that you should all be interested
in the erection of the permanent
chapel and monastery of st. Ger
trude's. Why? because the new
structure will be an ornament tC
your town, and. indeed, an object
of pride to the whole Prairie be.
cause this institution stands fol
the noble principles dear to the
heart of every loyal citizen; and
because, the occupation of the
new quarters by the Sisters will
be the signal for the carrying
out of a cherished desire OF
their heart. They will then re.
model their present apartments
and widen their benevolent in.
fluence in the form of either an
Orphanage or a School of Do.
mestic Science or an Academy OF
Higher Education, etc. Each
one of these objects contributing
largely in the education of child,
hood and youth.-Therefore we
conclude by asking you to lei
your enthusiasm be aroused ant
your interest awakened; and il
any good friend of the institu
ton feels impelled to approach
you with request for assistanc,
in behalf of the Sisters new
structure, rest assured that youl
generosity will be fully appreci
ated and that it will go a Ions
ways towards helping the uplift
ment of this Civic Community a
large and to the shaping of thu
destiny of the growing genera
ton, the hope of the future
At any rate you are cordially in
vited to pay a visit to st. Ger
trudes's on July 5th, 1920.

INCOME PAYERS
FOR YEAR 1918
55 PAID INCOME TAX FOR
TAXABLE YEAR 1919,
IA IN 1918.

Cottonwood has 10 less incom
tax payers this year than sh
had last year, according to a lis
of income tax payers, which ha
been posted at the Cottonwoo
Post-office as required by law.
For the year 1918, IA file
income tax returns and this lis
dropped to 55 for the taXabl
year 1919. In comparing tn
1918 and 1919 lists, the larges
percentage of those who paid In
come taxes in 1918 and who fai
ed TO file income returns for tn
year 1919 were farmers. Thi
is due, no doubt, to the poo
crops last year, and most farm
ers were well satisfied if the
made both ends meet. Wit
the present prospects for a bum
per crop this year, no doubt tn
income tax payers next year wi
be greatly increased.
