SWINE INDUSTRY
Is In JEOPARDY
Threat of Congress to
Cut OFF Appropria-
ton to Fight Chol-
era is Alarming
PROTEST
Various Organizations
Bringing Influence
on Congressman

The fate of the Idaho swine in
dustry hangs upon what immediate
action may be taken by state organ
izations to bring influence upon con-
gressmen at Washington, according
to wire received from Congressman
Addison T. Smith by DR.. W. P.
Henderson, state veterinarian at Po-
catello Tuesday afternoon.
Party leaders in congress are
threatening to cut off the appropria-
tion for the control of hog cholera
some $500,00O for the country.
Idaho last year spent more than
$11 900 on this control work and
saved hogs to the value of hundreds
of thousands of dollars. Especially
in southern Idaho the swine industry
will be wiped out entirely without
means with which to combat hog
cholera, according to both DR.. Hend-
erson, who is in Pocatello stirring up
the clubs on this immediate danger,
and Professor r. E. Miller director
of agriculture at the Idaho Tech.

ADMIRE SYS T E M
Will Adapt Several
Methods Used in
This Vicinity

Bingham county roads are coming
in for their share of comment in
various parts OF Southern Idaho and
the county commissioners and the
superintendent of road construction,
w. G. Stone has been receiving a
number of inquiries concerning the
methods used. On Tuesday of this

Bonneville county, Andrew Burk-
man, q. P. Simmons and Christ
Anderson together with the county
highway engineer Roy B. Johnson,
paid a visit to the local commits
sioners and thoroly inspected the
read work will be adopted by Bonne-
the methods used. Bonneville county
is contemplating extensive road work
this spring and the commissioners
are out looking over the work of
other counties to aid them in their
problems. The gravel roads of this
county and several sections Of sand
surfaced highway were closely ex-
amined by the commissioners of the
neighboring county who were sur
prised at the excellent work accom-
plished. The machinery used in the
road work was also looked at very
closely, together with the system of
cost keeping installed by Superin-
tendent Stone at the highway office.
several items used by the county in
road work will be adopted by Bonne-
Vile county according to their COM
missioners.
While here the commissioners of
the neighboring county discussed
road matters thoroly with the Bing-
ham county commissioners and as a
result of the conference it is expected
that both counties will benefit. State
and federal aid for the highways of
the counties was also discussed.

''Star Scraper"
Will Be Interesting

Suppose the girl you loved was a
true American-loyal to the core
and she called you an idling Stacker
Yet, while you were not in khaki
you were doing wonderful service
to your country, far more important
than you could have done if in uni
form. TO tell her would win her
for you and to remain silent would
cause her only contempt. What
would you have done? This is one
of the many interesting situations
arising between the titled English
man and his American sweetheart
in the Star Scraper," the play to
be produced at the Orpheum theater
by the local post, American Legion,
on February 20.
The benefits of this play in Black
foot will be turned over to the local
post and the play is produced by Po-
catello Post No. 4 American Legion,
with an all star cast of former SER
vice men. Many of the girls taking
part in the performance were former
war workers and the services Of the
players are donated to the American
Legion.
Just how the German government
carried on its secret service work in
this country prior to the war is dis
closed with startling vividness by the
author, himself a former service
man. Every true American should
GO to see "'The Star Scraper" and
learn what the menace of the Hun
really meant to the world.
The plot of the play is filled with
powerful situations and dramatic
climaxes. There is not dull mo-
ment from the rise of the curtain in
the first act until the final episode in
the thir dact when the emissarios
of the kaiser are rounded up.

Lef1nox Club Gives
Smoker to Rotarians
Elaborate Program and Get-TO-
Gather Meeting Staged at
Club Rooms for
Business
ENJOYABLE PROGRAM GIVEN
Near Dutch Lunch Served at Close
of the Evenings
Festivities

The Lennox club entertained the
Rotary club at their clubrooms
Tuesday night at one of the most
successful smokers ever given in the
city. There were a large number OF
members of both clubs present.
A number of speakers responded
to a speech by William Parkinson
and members of both clubs expressed
much qualification at the opportun-
ity afforded them for a mutual ex-
change Of ideas. INV
The Martin trio gave number OF
pleasing musical selections on the
piano, violin and cello, Miss Virginia
Pierce gave several well rendered
vocal solos and two vaudeville acts
from local theater rounded out the
program
A near dutch lunch was served at
the close of the evening.
The program opened at $50 and
things kept happening until after
midnight. The singing of Miss
Pierce was a surprise to most Of the
ment present, as also the perform
ance of the Marten trio. Few of
either the guests or the hosts, ac-
cording to their statements after
wards, knew that such talent was to
be found in the home town. Accom-
panying the vaudeville acts were
Ronald Robbins and Miss Ruth
Rushfeldt. t.t.
A coincidence of the occasion was
the meeting of the Musical Martens
and John DOWN., vaudeville singer,
brought over from the Isis theater,
who had all travelled the vaudeville
circuit for two years on the same
bill several years before,
Many assurances of friendship and
cooperation were given and taken
between the members of the two
clubs as the evening came to a close.
The Lennox club now has a MEM
bership of twenty-five young men of
and the purpose of their
association runs somewhat along
the same line as that of the Rotary
Club.

Montana Ships
Out Many Cattle

An unusually large movement oi
cattle out of Montana has taken
place in 1919, according to the
bureau of animal industry, United
States department of agriculture
Normally, the movement of cattle
front his State is between 100000
and 100000 head annually. 1t is
estimated that already between 500,-
1000 and 100000 have been shipped
out for all purposes this year. Fig
ures are not available for similar
comparison in regard to sheep, but
reports from representatives of the
department in the field indicate that
between 100000 and. 100000 sheep
of all classes or range stock were
moved out of the northwest for feed
ing grazing in section east and west
of the drought area.
These animals went first into the
available nearby pasture lands in
the Dakotas and Nebraska. Later
they were moved into the middle
corn-belt states, into Minnesota, Wis
consin and the upper peninsula of
MlCulSdu, anu SILL AdtCi luIO = CAuo
and New Mexico The movement
into the two latter states continued
on into November. The heavy snow
fall that occurred early in the season
overlook some ranchmen who were
taking chances on the weather and
they found it necessary to move their
herds quickly. 1t is thought that
enough railroad cars were made
available to fill all orders. Stock
cars moving west were given prefer
ence over dead freight.
Information that has reached the
department indicates that the move
ment of cattle into New Mexico and
Texas ehas been satisfactory, and
with certain exceptions, the same
holds true with respect to Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Michigan. Reports
indicate that considerable move
ment of sheep and cattle into Michi-
gan and nearby territory for sum-
mer grazing is likely in future years.
Feed supplies in the northwest APP
pear to be adequate for live stock re-
manning on the ranges and there is
now no expectation of serious short
age If the winter is normal.

GOVERNOR ISSUES
ARBOR DAY PLANS
Proclamation Give s
Naming of Date for
Tree Planting to
School Heads
WILL BE in APRIL
County Superintendent
Will Name Day in
Spring Soon

Governor Davis has issued the
Arbor Day proclamation for this
year and has specified that county
superintendents of schools may
designate the day for the planting of
trees and the celebration of the COM
ing. of spring
Mrs. Grace Faulconer, county sup
erintendent of school has not ar
ranged the date for the Bingham
county celebration of Arbor day, but
expects to do so in the near future
The proclamation follows:
"The people of the world get
wealth, beauty and comfort from
trees. They have provided fuel,
shelter and water from the mount
aims since the beginning of time.
The heartless waste of trees has
marked the past and we must re-
habilitate the denued forests and
make shelter for man and beast on
the now treeless prairie and desert.
"Very wisely, the federal govern
ment, acting on the suggestion of J.
Sterling Morton, former secretary of
agriculture, has set apart day each
yOoi Aoi LHC pidAIlH5 VI JIccS, WIlCll
is known as Arbor Day. In Idaho,
because of climatic differences in
various part Of the state, our legis-
lature has specified that the county
superintendents in each county set
apart day for the planting of trees.
1t is particularly fitting that these
ceremonies should be in the hands
of the school children, for it gives
them a partnership in a constructive
idea and gives them an opportunity
to develop love of the beautiful
growing things.
I'm accordance with the Idaho
law, I, D. w. Davis, governor of
Idaho, do hereby specify as Arbor
an Bird day in Idaho, such days as
the local superintendents may
specify.
"In testimony whereof, l have
hereunto set my hand and caused
the great seal of the State Of Idaho
to be affixed hereto ,at the City of
Boise, the capital Of Idaho, this sixth
day of February, 1920.
I'd. w. DAVIS,
Governor.
Attest: ROBERT o. JONES,
Secretary Of State"
