DAIRY INDUSTRY
Farmers Cut Own

tons Is Assertion.
.4s

That the farmers of this and every
other dairy section in the United
States are cutting their own throats
as result of the consumption of Ger
tain butter substitutes thereby jeo-
pardizing the dairy industry was the
assertion of w. H. Blunt. representing
local creamery company, before the
Caldwell Commercial club Tuesday
evening. Widespread use of the sub
stitutes sold at prices below those
asked and essential for butter and
which Mr. Blunt characterized as
doubtful substitutes so far as nutrional
value is concerned, is undermining one
of the vital agricultural industries oi
the country by making it practically
impossible to market butter.
Butter substitutes are foreign pro-
ducts manufactured by cheap labor
according to Mr.. Blunt but this coun.
try exports three times the substitute
that it does butter, he also said. Sales
of substitutes exceeds that of butte,
through the local stores, said Mr.
Blunt. Substitutes rob Idaho farms
of substitutes exceed that of butter
livestock owned by farmers and rob
the land of its fertility by virtue oi
these facts were among the indict.
ments brought by Mr.. Blunt against

Washington, Dec. 16.-All agricul-

in congress will receive the close
scrutiny of the American Farm Bu-

Such is the plan outlined by Gray
Silver. Washington representative of
the great organization of American
farmers, to the Farm Bureau Feder-
alton and accepted at the Indianapolis
convention last week.
t. Gray Silver States Aims.
"We intend to talk principle and
to see that principle is embodied in
legislation" says Mr.. Silver. AT the
present short session. the Capper-
Horstman bill on cooperative mar
keting will come up for discussion
and action, 4 bill of fundamental i'm
portance to the farmers of the United
States. This bill has been studied
in every detail by the American Farm
Bureau Federation and its provisions
I will be set forth so that all farmers
may understand it. Legislation of this
character lies at the very foundations
of the farmers existence and in the
fight in congress the producers of the
nation will have the full support oi

Dr. J. w. Cue said that he thought
wise the fact that Mr.. Blunt had pre-
sented the matter to the farm bureau
members at the annual meeting and
asserted that he believed there were
few members of the Commercial club
who were using butter substitutes.
That Caldwell was sleeping on the
job and wasting valuable. time trying
to grab at things that were dangling
at the end of visionary rainbows was
the gist of an address made by H.
w. Dorman and which served to
warm things up bit. As an instance
of the negligence of local people
and business men in caring for the
assets they already possess. Mr.. Dor
man cited the bond election held in
the Pioneer district Tuesday which
involved expenditures aggregating ap-
proximately $4,000, much of it actu-
ally within the city limits of Caldwell
In spite of this vital problem whose
importance Mr.. Dorman regarded as
of much more importance than the
speculation of prospective sugar
beet factory, few more than 200 votes
were cast in Caldwell. Get down to
earth and use to best advantage the
things Caldwell has instead of grab
bing at rosy and hazy promises" was
the closing admonition of Mr.. Dor
man. -
Walter Griffiths was appointed to
head Evergreen Highway activities ir
this section to succeed c. Ben Ross
who recently resigned.

The aKnsas City Monarchs are just

the fast Detroit Stars by beating

'Monarchs won 3, Detroit won 2.
Here is six games out of nine won
while the Monarchs were travelling.
In the present series the Detroit Stars
were travelling. In the present series
the Detroit Stars hav won two games
out of the three played so far, with 3
more games to play. The mere fact
that the visitors have a shade the best
of the games seems to have disturbed
a lot of the lukewarm admirers of the
home team. If the Detroit Stars won
all the remaining games to be played
in the series, an improbability, they
would have nothing to boast of at
that.
While we are making comparisons
let us also remember that the Mon
archs have made a better record on
the road than any other team in the
league, considering the teams they
have played.
Some more food for fans to feed up
on is the fact that Kansas City is fast
proving itself the best baseball town
on the map by way OF patronage. The
! Chicago community with its breezy IN
f~lation, must now accord to our city
the palm for general attendance. The
weekday crowds here are a marvel to
visiting teams, while the Sunday null
titudes are astounding.
The Detroit team came in last Sat
urday to open hostilities with the
local leaguers, and some team the
northerners have! These boys, after
being BANKED by the locals for 8 in
nings, managed to put over two runs
in the 9th, tieing the score. The
Monarchs held them safe for two
more extra sessions, but the Detroit
ers came up in the 18th and got 2
more runs, winning the game. The
game was brilliant from the start,
Currie pitching perfect ball, holding
the visitors with his tight offerings,
which they could Aot see. Johnson,
for the visitors, was also effective.
The pivotal points of fortune turned
at the 9th and 18th periods, giving
the score below: pc

Again the men from the far north
carried ava ythe long end of the
bacon before a big Sunday crowd.
Gatewood, the mighty, served his fell
lows on the mound today, and he per-
formed the function well. Neither
side scored until the sixth inning,
when the visitors punched hits and
scored. 2. In the seventh they annex
ed the winning run. The Monarchs
fell heir to the 2 runs they made in
the Sth. 1t was noticed that the
Stars won today's game on close field
ing and clean hitting. The Monarchs,
however, seemed to play equally jam
up ball. There were evidently two
good teams in the field.

BRITISH PURCHASE

Lord Inverforth Turns Back to Treasury
$25,000,OO0 In Profits.

London, Aug. 3-Lord Ivsnforth. for
merly surveyor general Of supplies in
the British war office. by worldwide
purchases OF raw materials on behalr
OF the government was able to turn
into the British treasury on March 81
last S25, 100000 representing profits on
all transactions since 1914 according
to his report recently made to the min
istry of munitions.
While the profits were large, Sir Ar
thur Goldfinch. director general CT raw
materials, points out that the economic
benefits were far greater. The raw
materials obtained were largely used
in the manufacture Of military equip
ment with a direct saving estimated at
more than S500.000,000. The purchases
were of wool. hides, leather, flax, hemp
and similar materials.
Insurance, generously taken out,
served to more than make up losses
from submarine warfare, it was stated.
The record Of Lord Iverforth's activi
ties is in contrast with results obtained
by similar departments in other allied
countries. Among the pur chases were
nearly 100000 pounds of American
sole leather and 100000 feet of Amer
lean upper leather.
Included in the chief items of textile
and leather equipment for the army
and navy, air force and other branches
of the public service and for the allies
from August 4. 1914, TO March 81. 1919,
were: 6i,S99,626 pairs of boots; 81 $685.
600 yards of cotton drill; 60,9i7.00O yards

23.776,3i5 jackets; i6i,3ii.7S7 pairs of
socks and 20,i90,Si0 pairs of wooden
gloves.
Contracts made with British manu-
faGturers for the goods afforded them
larger profit than they made for sim
liar work in pre-war days, it was
said. and served to speed up proluc-
ton.

MEXICAN SOLDIERS
ARE LEAVING ARMY

Mexico City, Aug. 3.--NIore than 5000
officers and privates in the Mexican
army retired from military service in
the first week of July. according to Ell
Heraldo.
This general Withdrawal from the
army is the result. of a campaign re-
Gently launched b,F the government to
induce large part of the soldiers of
Mexico ''to abandon the rifle for the
ploW." as the Mexican press is fond
OF phrasing it.
The governments campaign for a
smaller army is due to the realization
that vast tracts of valuable agricul-
tural land are irt urgent need of develop
ment nd that many factories in Mexico
are short of hep. It is pointed out that
the present military situation is such
as to require the services of not more
than $4,000 men. thus permitting the
other thousa nds of men under arms
to devote Themselves to the task of
economically rehabilitating the country.
The recerit uprisings of Generals
Carlos 0suDa and Jesus Fl. Gauiardo
have not altered the governments de-
termination to reduce the personnel of
the army. According to General An
tonic |. VinEarreal. secretary of agri-
culture arid development, these two
movements do not present a military
problem"
