FIRST AID TRAINING
TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose Of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand it. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of a physicians service. A sur
geon should always be summoned as
a precautionary measure where there
is an injury Of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean fatality. In
such q case a person trained in First
Aid is invaluable not only to the in
dividual, but through him to the COM
munity in which he lives.
There is perhaps no way Of ascer-
tanning the number Of deaths or seri-
Gus disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination Of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced a farreaching and beneficial in
fluence in the prevention Of accidents
on railroads, in mines and in great in
dustrial concerns.
The benefit Of a widespread knOWl-
edge of First Aid in the event of
great disaster, such as a train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, ETC., is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
ID the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, Of classes for in
struction in accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women in all communities and in
every industry; (2) the Introduction Of
courses of instruction in high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea-
sonable prices.
Every person in this country able to
do so should, in his own interest, re-
ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters.

"There is no danger Of OvercrOWd-

THEN and

Back-breaking labor has been re-
CURED to clear much Of the part Of
Wisconsin which is being farmed to-
day. The pioneer brushing and stump
Ing was done largely by hand.
Gradually, however, the brush line
was pushed farther north, until the
term "undevelOped Wisconsin" came,
to a large extent, to mean upper Wis
cOnsin.
Settlers have been turning to these
mdcveIoDed sections to battle with
the stumps and brush, which had been
left in the wake OF the lumberman's
advance. These sturdy pioneers have
battled hard and usually have won
even under severe handicaps. But the
advent Of stump pulIers and pliers,
dynamite, INT, and the demonstra-
ton Of better land-clearing methods
have helped to solve some of the prob
lens.

Self-Feeder Saves Work.

No farm boy need become stoop-
shouldered due to carrying heavy swill
pals when he may. instead, fill a self
feeder from Il wagon once or twice a
week. In this way he can care for his
sary for hand-feeding them. A self
feeder saves feed, time, and backache
1t keeps pigs from squealing and fret
ting and pushes them to an earlier and
usually better market.

MUST UNITE TO
SAVE SITUATION
States Creameries Must Coop
crate or Best Prices Will
Go Elsewhere.

That 100000 will be added to the
states annual income from butter
alone, as soon as the present move
mcnt towards cooperative creamery
organizations becomes thoroughly
widespread is the conservative eStl-
mate made by f. II. Harrington of the
College of Agriculture recently. Al
ready creamerieS in the La Crosse
river valley, in the Chippewa Falls
district and in Polk county have band
ed themselves to reap the benefits OF
cooperative effort.
'Rcalizing that consolidation Of but
ter shipments from groups consisting
of several creamerieS each will result
an better prices and require butter of
uniform quality, Badger butterniakers
are taking steps to introduce team
work into their business" says Mr..
Harrington. "They are determined to
increase the reputation of Wisconsin
butter.
Better Teamwork Needed.
"The movement is the biggest thing in
the butter industry in the state today.
Teamwork is becoming more and more
essential to the development of Wis
consin's whole dairy industry. We
make one-ffth of the nations butter,
but our supremacy in this regard needs
Ito be expanded by a supremacy of a
greater uniformity of quality.
"Other sections of the country or
even other countries that pay particu-
lar attention to producing uniform
1y good product will take the top-notch
prices if we do not expand our devel-
opment of cooperation among cream
cries. Small creamerieS working alone
produce butter varying in quality.
They are also too small to make an
impression on the market. County or
district groups made up of eight. fifteen
or more creamerieS under the leader
shin of one good management can
bring our whole standard up, and can
thereby increase the profits Of the IN
diyidual creamerieS. This whole CO.
operative project Leads to better things.
"Retter freight service at carload
freight rates is an important result OF
creamery teamwork. y cooperative
organization of creameries would
make a real saving in money by pool
ing their uniformly good product.
Uniform Quality Required.
"JuSt take Il daily butter market re-
mort" continued Mr.. Harrington. NO
tice the plain illustration of how large
quantities of uniform butter are max
ing increased profits. Notice the two
divisions into which butter that scores
90. for example, is divided. Under one
division is creamery butter" quoted
at 5O1h cents-but centralized car
lots of the same grade is quoted at
521b cents-a margin of cents on
every pound. Our dairy department
has kept track of this difference dur
ling several years and although the
margin varies with the season, the car
lot butter is nearly always higher
The butter market wants good-slzeC
lots of uniformly good butter, and they
are willing to pay extra for it. The
market quotations prove it.

GLORIOUS CITY OF ROMANCE
Historic Edifices and Monuments Of
constantinopIe Unequaled by Any
Other Capital.

In spite Of filth and evil odors, the
one dominant note Of Constantinople
is Romance. It meets you at the
threshold Of every one Of its 200
mosques and its hundreds Of chapels.
In the Church Of st. Sophia. with its
stupendous dome, its dream-like
beauty, and its 16 centuries Of history;
in the Suleymaniya mosque, with its
colossal columns and its miracles Of
Saracenic decoration; and the Mosque
Of Sultan Ahmed I, with its six sky
piercing minarets, exquisite in their
grace, and its columns more than 100
feet in circumference.
In the Hippodrome, where gladiators
fought and chariots raced to the plaud-
Its Of Roman spectators, you can see
the famous column Of the Three Ser
penis, which stood 1000 years ago In
the Temple of Delphi.
The Old Seraglio recalls Mohamme
dan splendors Of long-gone centuries.
Once a royal residence. 1t still con-
fains the mint and museum and H.
brary; and perhaps the most won
derful sight in Europe, the treasury,
with its fabulous treasures Of Jewels
and golden ornaments, worth incal.
culable millions. Leaving STEAMBOAT
and crossing the Golden Horn we come
to Galata, the quarter Of the mer-
chants, a busy hive Of commercial in
dustry, with warehouses and factories
and the coming and going Of great
ships from all the worlds seas.
From Galata we pass to Pera, the
aristocratic quarter, with its stately
embassies and consulates, its walled
in palaces Of pashas with their har.
ems.
Beyond Para IL the beautiful village

Useful Carabao.

The carabaos Of the Philippine q.
lands belong to the group Of Asiatic
buffalo. They are. mostly mouse.
colored, and their thick hides are
sparsely covered with thin hair. Their
bodies are as round as barrels, and
their thick, long horns give them
formidable appearance, although they
are quite harmless under ordinary
conditions.
Henry Flury, In Our Dumb Animals
magazine, says the carabaos are ideal
Philippine beasts Of burden, first be-
cause they are slow, and the slower
the better, In the estimation of the ma
tive who is never in a hurry; and
secondly, on account Of their big, bar
rel-shaped bellies and split hoofs
which spread out very widely when
the rainy season comes and the roads
are rivers Of thick mud.

FINANCIAL AID
FOR WEST

professor of civil engineering at the
University of Utah.
The congressional party is on a A.
day trip through the west and is about
half through. 1t visited two projects
in Colorado, one in Nevada, several in
California, the klamath Falls and
Umatilla projects in Oregon, the
Yakima valley in Washington, pro-
jects in Idaho, and will visit in Wy
oming and Montana. The party will
then go to Chicago, where it will dis
band
Caldwell men who joined the party
at Parma included: J. H. Lowell, J.
M. Thompson, Ross Madden, Henry
Griffiths, c. M. Rankin, L. J. Magee,
A. E. GIBSON, Joe Erwin and Alden
Hyde. Delegations from Boise,
Nampa, Wilder and Parma also &C
companied the party through the
project. In all, the party filled about
so automobiles.
Congressman, unfamiliar with
the results of irrigation pss;or to
this trip, judging from their
marks, were convinced that de- -
velopment of the west through
the agency of reclamation was a
vital need for western states as
a portion of national develop
ment program. Various men,
bers individually assured persons
with whom they talked that they
would do all within their power
to speed reclamation. The senti-
ment prevails here that the next
session of congress will make
adequate provision for reclama-
ton of the west.

CITY PRISONER

BUT IS NABbED
John Brown of Ontario
Leads John Baker
Merry Chase Here
Monday Morning; Is
Charged With Rob-
berry.

Something fit for the most sensa-
tional movie scenario was presented
in Caldwell Monday morning when,
after thrilling case, involving fire
arms, iron bars used as weapons and
a threatened suicide, John Brown
was taken into custody at Memorial
park after he had once escaped from
the clutches of John Baker, city chief
of police.
Early Monday morning Mr.. Baker
was informed by telephone from the
Ontario chief of police that burglars
had broken into a second hand store
there and stolen, among other things,
some second hand guns. Only
short time after, Mr.. Baker OBJ
served man get off the morning
Pony with firearm in his posses
sion which he took to a local second
hand store to SELL 1t was while he
was endeavoring to dispose of the
weapon that Mr.. Baker took him into
custody and started for the county
Jail.
Develops Thirst.
Under plea of being thirsty,
Brown stopped at the drinking foun-
tain in front of the city hall. Mr..
Baker, coatless. was obviously I'M
armed and Brown took advantage of
the opportunity presented while
drinking to distract Mr.. Bakers at
tention to bolt down Seventh avenue
toward Memorial park. Mr.. Baker
pursued him and ordered him to stop,
threatening to shoot. Brown halted
just long enough to note that Baker
still had not produced a gun and
then continued his race for liberty
Outdistanced, Mr.. Baker returned
to the city hall for his gun and then,
operating on the belief that his
prisoner would 60 to the river and
the cover of brush, went west of
Caldwell to search for him there.
Fritz Miller, in an automobile en-
route for the business district, had |
observed Brown escape and followed
him in his machine. Brown headed |
for the park and Mr.. Miller drove
around in An effort to keep him
within the confines of the park. Mr..
Baker was finally reached and the
two men conducted a thorough
search of the park. They investi-
gatd every cldmp of weeds and
shrubbery and every other possible
hiding place.
Hides in Toilet.
1t was not until they stopped at
the tourist park and woman camp
ed there informed them that Brown
was concealed in a toilet that they |
had any mixing of his whereabouts.
Brown had securely barricaded him
self on the inside and persistently re-
fused to come out with hands up"
at Bakers order. Finally, with the
aid of an iron bar in the hands of
Mr.. Miller, the door was broken
down.
Brown. standing with something
Of dramatic pose, held knife near
his throat threatening suicide. Mr..
Baker leveled gun at him and or
dered Brown to drop the knife under
penalty of having his hand shot.
Brown refused for the time and it
was only when he was hit on the
wrist with the iron bar that he fin
ally submitted to arrest.
He was taken to the city Jail, On
tario officials notified and in the
afternoon, the sheriff OF Malheur
county and the chief of police came
up after him. Late Monday after
noon it was believed that Brown
would waive extradition and return
to Ontario.

THE REUNION
BY e. G. sANBoRN.

Somewhere In the White mountains,
nestled among the pines, Is a resting
camp erected for our heroes. To this
place young Lieut.. Irwin Kittredge
was sent by his physicians to stay
until ne had fully recovered from his
nervous condition.
Irwin was very energetic, and the
long. weary days OF doing nothing be-
gan to wear on him. In the years be-
fore he had Joined the army he had
made paintings, so to while away the
long hours he took lengthy strolls, al
ways carrying his artists outfit with
him.
II was a windy day that Irwin went
TO distant peak, which he had been
planning TO visit ever since coming TO
the wayslde camp. He reached there
early In the afternoon and had been
painting for nearly an hour when sui
denly a sharp breeze blew sonfe OF his
papers down the mOuntainslde. AS
these were some OF his most treasured
works he picked up his painting ma
terials and rushed after them. Swift
~, but cautiously, he made his way
down the mountalnside. searching to
the right and TO the left with a keen
eye. He becams discouraged and was
about to give up in despair when he
came TO the foot Of the mountain with
out finding his lost treasures. He de-
clded to go back to camp. He had
gone but a few yards after making
this decision when he rounded a sharp
bowlder. He stopped with start
when he spled sitting on a fallen tree
trunk a fair young lady.
His papers were forgotten. At first
he was too surprised to say a word

After the first surprise OF the meet
ing the two young people had very
animated conversation. Helena Ber-
wick told how she and her chum had
worked at the canteen In France and
were about to return to their old posi-
lions when the chum suggested their
going to- visit the White mountains.
She also said that they expected to
leave the mountains within the week.
Irwin told of his experience since
leaving the little town of Mouuers.
How he was wounded and Of his or
ders to go to this rest camp for COM
plete rest cure. lie added that he
was so much better that he thenght
he would be able to leave within few
days.
The lieutenant and Helena were so
deeply lntereSttu III liieiT Nuih ih"'
they had failed 20 take notice that
the sun had sunk behind Il bank OF
clouds and that severe rainstorm
was brewing When they stopped a
minute they started up In astonish'
ment. Before they could get TO the
hotel where Helena was spending hei
days the rain came down in torrents
Helena went to her room, and Irwin
back to camp, but not before he re
celyed promise from his friend that
she would go for ride the next day
The next day was clear and beauti
full, and the two had most enjoyable
trip. This was not the last one. how
ever. before the girls went home.
Several months passed, when Heleni
