THE bitter war between Russia and
Poland may yet involve all Europe and
even the United States, for in ad-
dition to the bloody fighting there is
unlimited intrigue and plotting. And
to think that all cf this could have been
avoided if the United States Senate
had not cOnspired to defeat the League
of Nations. Senator Lodge and his
followers have a terrible crime TO

VALUE IDAHO
LIVESTOCK
SLUMPS
Figures Compiled by U. s.
Bureau Show Deprecia-
tion of $12,787, 900.

The value of all livestock in the
state of Idaho during the past year
shows slump Of $12,7S7,O ac-
cording to julius III. Jacobson, field
agent with the U. s. bureau Of crop
estimates, in report submitted to
the public few days ago. The report
follows:
According to the annual livestock
report, the total value of all livestock
on Idaho farms and ranges has depre-
ciated from $108, 600 in January,
1919, to $93,357 300 in January, 1920.
Although this reduction is partially
attributable to the decrease In num-
bers of horses and swine, the chief
reason is found in the decrease of $12
per head for horses, 81 per head for
mules, $3.50 for cattle, $3.50 for sheep
and 81 so per head for swine. Mich
showing an increased value. They av-
erage $S5 per head, an increase Of So
over last years average. Their value
per head has been steadily increas-
ing since 1917.
sheep have held first place in to-
tai value since 1917, the total vary
ing from $25 ,994, 900 to the high water
mark OF $42,5S7, 200 in 1918, while
horses and cattle. other than milch
cows, have contended for second place
Horses are estimated at 10000 or
a decrease of 2 per cent i'm number
from last year. Heavy losses of range
horses have been reported due to
scarcity of feed and extremely cold
weather this winter.
Other Changes.
There was no change from last
year in the number of milch cows re-
ported which can probably be ex-
, planned by the work of the ever in
creasing cow testing associations and
the high cost Of feed in Eliminating
the poor producers. The Stacker could
not earn her keep and was sent TO the
block. Canyon county is the banner
dairy county in the state with Il. .540
cows valued at 81. 040, $40. Ada is :.
close second with 11,O01 cows valued
at 81 ,001 .040. These two counties pro-
duced close to 100000 gallons OF
milk in 1919.
